@dafyre Bitwarden has been great here we migrated the whole company over to using it and forced password changes on the coupel external sites we control. So far no issues.

@scottalanmiller We were out of the area when we heard. Know that location. So far the news is not good and our kids are asking about it. Sad day here.

@BraswellJay I normally do not promote however good friend of mine (and former co-worker) demo's some headphones for Ingram and he liked the Jabra Evolve 2 85 for dual ear protection. I tried them and found they worked well but may be a bit heavy for all day wear.
Here is his video demo of a few different headsets.

RE: Proxmox in 2022posted in IT Discussion
@brandon220 we are currently on Hyper-v for 2 VM's (and one physical DC that bit the bucket, see my other posts) I'm interested in Proxmox as well to replace Hyper-V as we do have one silly need for 1 or 2 on prem servers (more for development/testing and provisioning phones than anything) so keep us posted

RE: How Do You Replace Active Directory?posted in Water Closet
admittedly, our deployment will be more "seat of the pants' as we had a DC failure and I'm the new guy so make him do it. I haven't even looked at all the potential issues and pitfalls. I just know that for a company of our size (less than 100 users, workforce now primarily remote) a central active directory structure is not necessary nor needed. We aren't doing LDAP/ADFS/SAML anywhere today. Heck we don't know yet if we even need MDM (Intune) but if the higher ups are allowing up to get licenses might as well play with it.

RE: How Do You Replace Active Directory?posted in Water Closet
@Dashrender do they need local admin rights? For us the answer is NO.
Right now I'm working on an image for our systems with apps re-installed and Chocolaty for future package management. A local admin user with password known to IT (different foe each machine) is created, and I-T person adds machine to Azure AD though Accounts section of Win 10 (with pre-set password). Reboot, new user logs in and is prompted to change their password. Will simplify this as time goes on but its a good start.
