Sake time. Hope this is good.

@dustinb3403 I'll take a bag please, I'm going to the gym tonight so will probably be low when I'm done!

@wrcombs sounds like a firewall/rules thing at the back office

I am looking to play with something at home but not Active Directory. What alternatives are out there? I have heard about Zentyal and its a possibility. Is there anything else that would be better just to learn that would be useful to know?

@rojoloco Good luck man!

Enjoyed the article. I'll add you to my reading list and link to you from my website

@rojoloco Cool video!

@eddiejennings Alright if Microsoft is off the table then next considerations would be GSuite and then Zoho mail in my humble opinion.

Morning everyone. Hopefully today is not as busy as yesterday. i actually want to sit at my desk today

@nashbrydges I use Cloudflare. I have been fairly happy with it. Wish I understood what all of their non-obvious modules do but its probably in the documentation which I don't have time to look at so not their fault.

Going to go take a nap in a few

ok thanks. i will check out post of yours.

I don't like Keep either. I use mostly OneNote at work because it is easier for me to organize things. I like Evernote so I use it at home. I never really have to search anything because of the way I have both of those organized so searching doesn't matter to me.

@dashrender Yeah it really is for testing purposes. I opened this topic because I wanted to get a better understanding of Raid than my limited experience had to offer and the various guides you can read explaining it. Every guide I have found does not go into any depth at all. I have learned Much more from this topic than from any previous article I have read.

At work I don't have any users who it would make sense to have a Raid system set up for currently. I just want to be prepared and know exactly what steps to consider if the use case ever does appear. While I am a noob compared to most of you all I still have no trouble setting up raid when I want to as I have a few times. I just wanted a better understanding of why and what other things to consider.

For myself there is value in me running a good Raid system at home. Who couldn't use a little better performance and reliability? I will do Raid 10. The most important thing to me is the learning experience and I like knowing best practices if at all possible. However, there are still things to consider. Remember everything I do at home is to help me learn something else in case I ever need it and I just like understanding things and am constantly trying to learn more. For home, what negatives do you see in using KVM so i can run lots of vm's in a Raid 10 system?

@rojoloco I made chicken curry last night too, bangladesh style

@dafyre My boss told me that microsoft took away the ability to change the passwords via gpo because of some issue where they were being sent in plain text. I have no way to verify but thats what he told me

@kelly Yep!

@dbeato said in Local Admin PW:

If you are in a Windows Environment take a look at LAPS

thanks dbeato, i will look at that

@wrcombs Thanks a lot!

I use straight Fedora on everything i can. I use to switch OS's a lot but everything had more issues than Fedora did. Its just a great product. Running on HP Elitebook, Dell Precision, and an Asus something.
