So we hired a new IT Director in the last month or so.
He's didn't come from a large enterprise before, and is now having us give out local admin rights to many people. We've never given it to anyone outside of IT before. We've brought it up to him as a security concern, and not even sure how this will go with our auditing stuff. He says that's the way he's done it where he comes from, and it works much better. How should you address this?
How big is your IT department. I had a vendor telling me today we don't run very lean and are over staffed in IT. We have a ratio about 1:1,000 (1 IT staff for every 1,000 users). That's counting all developers, technicians, and Systems engineers as myself as well as our director of IT.

Nice Fluke ad. Nice to see another vendor.
Maybe it was just a fluke.. I haven't seen it yet.

No, they are physical.
Pretty much no one does image backups of physical desktops, because it is virtualization that generally powers the image-based backup system.
Central the Data in some manner then back it up. No one wastes time with doing bare-metal backups on desktops, not worth the trouble.
I always wonder how these people post pictures of their datacenters on social media. I don't go in them often at all as a sys admin but, none of ours allow pictures/cameras. Some don't even allow cell phones.

Most of the SMB people I help are not enterprise. I know best practice would be to have a server, have all data on that, and voila. But almost none of the really small businesses I see do that. They run their business and have a bunch of personal files on their machines.
It would be cheaper to get a small Linux file server or even windows to store data (or even a good NAS) than to do all this both in waste of time (OpEX) and Cost to do it (CapEX)
Of course the one hard drive I have at home that I didn't get a chance to backup to crash plan yet is the one that fails.. And none of the ones I have backed up have ever failed.
It's funny everyone was so used to these from spiceworks 1.5 years ago when we started and wanted it. Now we have it and most don't care for it because the notification on ML and unread features are far more useful.
I don't think you can count all deducations since some of those you opt into. Mine would be really high with all the Retirmenet, Company stocks etc I do.
I Pay 18% in State Income Taxes and 28% in Federal so 46% of my pay goes to taxes.
What was the "set service" commands replaced with in EdgeMax Edgerouters? running v 1.70 It does not seem to work anymore. It only shows a Set Date and Set System command now.
I currently have Hulu plus and SlingTV. I'm thinking of cancelling both. Hulu has very little selection anymore. SlingTV used to be great but now since it's the same as then actual cable channels it's always reruns. (I haven't had cable in 12 years so I didn't realize this for the first 2 months I had it)
What do you have?
Not that anyone is surprised or anything.
Odd thing is they are still selling them.

X86 android?
Do all the normal android apps run on it?
Yes. You could run Android on normal CPUs for years. All applications for android are Java based as far as I know.

But, tracking IPs to show that an IP that is significantly outside the range of those normally used to access your system while possibly a red herring, is still useful as a stepping stone when looking for inappropriate access.
How could that be useful? Why would you want to track the "Normal Range" for a user? Are you prepared to disclose to all of your customers that you are doing Google-like tracking of them? As a medical facility, I would never want to hold onto that kind of personal information unless a court order made me do it.
You have to do a lot of tracking to determine what is normal. IPs change. People move around a lot. People use Cellular devices. Heck the actual IP address for Celluar devices will often show different states.
Well it was a return for a broken item. The company I returned it to have me credit back for the shipping costs ($130) plus USPS gave me a money order today to refund the shipping for being late haha
Temperature isn't the biggest factor in a data center enviroment moisture in the air is a killer.
It will never work. Mythbusters were great but it was Adam and Jamie that made it
They tried making House Hazars but it was forced and fake and was more about making big explosions than anything. Nothing very scientific about it really.

My recent UAP-AC-PRO acquisition was a bust. Atrocious throughput compared to its predecessor. I went through all the settings per best practices. There's quite a lengthy thread on the subject over at the UBNT forums. Pretty disappointing.Ah, I would not have seen that issue, because I have only used the UAP-AC-LITE so far. That LITE doe snot (and is not advertised to get) 1300mbps.
Sounds like the clients just don't have MIMO or enough streams to saturate it.
How many clients could one of the PRO ones support? I've got some high device density areas to cover.
Better to lower the RF on them and get more devices. A Normal AP is only going to support 50-100 associated devices, much much less active users (20 or so)
Anyone tried this before? I don't know much about it but could be interesting who knows?
