Well, that got me in to the machine, but despite using Reset-ComputerMachinePassword and netdom I was not able to redo the trust. Since it a CA I can't remove it or rename it. Looks like I'll be spinning up a new subordinate CA.

Games I'm buying in the Near Future:

Descent
Imperial Assault
The Others
Pandemic
Twilight Imperium 3
Rex
New Angeles

TI3 is great, but very time consuming. Shattered Empire is almost a requirement for it, but does add some to the complexity. It still ranks as one of my top all time games, but I don't get to play it much.

Firewalls to avoid....

My rule here is that there are just a few vendors that you actually want to consider, and on the SMB end of things, there is little reason to ever consider anything but Ubiquiti.

Once you get larger than Ubiquiti can handle, then you can look at Juniper, Cisco, and a few others. But you are talking $15K+ routers here or special HA functionality, which might be cheaper routers, but will be $10K+ in total.

I was able to get an HA pair of Junipers (new) for about $5k. I didn't go into it looking for HA, but when I found out I could get them for a third what I'd budgeted I decided to go for it.

@wirestyle22 said in Changing career path.... Red hat certification?:

It's nice to use as an education path. I am currently studying the cert book for RHCSA/RHCE.

This. I think for someone that doesn't have to use Linux on a day to day basis getting a cert delineates foundational knowledge and skills that has to be learned.

Wow, what models? Was it a sale or is that the normal price?

Normal reseller pricing. It was an SRX340. It is rated up to 3 Gbps.

I am trying to export out PSTs for the graduating seniors so they can import into their personal gmail accounts. However, when I run the commands I get "not a cmdlet error.

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like you need to load the Exchange/Office365 module.

@wls-itguy said in Exchange Shell command not working:

@kelly I know crazier things have been needed, but why would I need to install a module on an Exchange 2016 machine when I am running the cmd in Exchange Powershell?

Powershell does what it can to run lean, and that means letting the user determine which modules to load on start.

User's ticket (paraphrased): Foo Blah Doe starts training tomorrow and needs E-mail, phone extension, etc.

Me: Is Blah her middle name or part of her last name? If the latter, is it hypenated?

User: Hey there! Foo Blah is her name. It is not hyphenated.

Me: So her first name is "Foo Blah" and her last name is "Doe," correct?

Dat name doe...

@kelly In what way is your DC using certificates?

Domain Controller Authorization and Domain Controller.

I ended up just deleting the certs within CertMgr on the DCs themselves, and then requesting new ones. It appears to have fixed the problem.

I was wondering if it would simply be that simple.

I was leery of doing it at first since I didn't know what all was tied to those certs. In the end I just decided to go for it.

You could always export the cert first before deleting it. That way you can always put it back.

Too late for that... cough

All scorn and derision aside, if I wanted to manage a KVM host from Windows what are my options?

Someday I'm going to get around to playing Fallout 1/2/Tactics.

Here is a good place to start: https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002531728-EdgeRouter-Beginners-Guide-to-EdgeRouter.

Podcasts. I really need to think about something else.

https://tv.youtube.com/ is a good option. Some of the other streaming providers have it too iirc, like Sling.

Had some time to myself last night and whipped through a few movies: Swordmaster (Chinese movie), Doctor Strange, and Kubo.

The only potential flaw that I see in the changes is if the POS software requires Windows/AD is some way. I've seen some pos POS software implementations. Just a note that you might've already worked through.

Wasn't Kubo fantastic? I love that movie.

It was really good. A bit esoteric for many, but I liked it. Just the stop motion photography was simply amazing.
