@JaredBusch : It's a powershell only setting -- or at least this is the only place I've ever set it on prem. O365 does it through EAC mail rules.

What's your SCL Junk Email folder threshold set to? I believe it defaults to 4 but perhaps it's worth a look.

Can the actual backplane prevent you from having larger drives? I understand it can be a performance bottleneck, but drive size prevention?

Absolutely, always has.

To clarify, this isn't ALWAYS the case. The backplane can limit drive speed and/or size if it's an expander-type backplane.

On Supermicro, for example, if you have a chassis that ends in "TQ" this means the backplane is not an expander and is merely an input ("direct attached") board allowing SAS connections to it. I.e. you use an SF8087 fanout cable and run the 4 SAS sideband connectors to each port on the board.

Also from Supermicro is the "A" chassis which utilize a breakout backplane which takes a SF8087 input cable and then "breaks out" to 4 connections for 4 drives without modifying the instruction set from your card.

While cabling with both of these become messier than expander backplanes, they're almost forever upgradeable. So whether you bought your 32 drive chassis yesterday or 8 years ago, you can still obtain SAS2 speeds from it and large drives. One can also use a SAS3 card with a SFF8643 to SFF8087 cable, though you will be speed limited to 6Gbps.

Awesome! Sounds like you're doing your best to help companies in their time of need for a really affordable price.
Wish you guys the best of luck in your new(ish) endeavor.

I believe the original post made mention of some "free" period when a user signs up with a 1 year commitment. Correct me if I'm wrong.

At this point, would it not make your company seem way more socially responsible by offering 2 months free, no commitment. If the platform is really such a game changer then you're going to be converting all of these users to fully paid users in 60 days time.

I can't think of a better advertising campaign than :
"Look, we know you're in a bind due to this virus and we're here to help. We're offering our platform free of charge for the next two months. We think you'll like it so much that you'll want to stay".

Maybe economy doesn't support this. Maybe you're already doing this. Maybe I'm just plain wrong...

@scottalanmiller : I looked at the site and it contains a lot of sales speak but no actual visual representation of the product.
Any screen shots / usage videos?

@JaredBusch : I should have phrased that better.
Many cities have shutdown their own venues such as stadiums, recreation centers, etc. and has strongly suggested that private venues do the same.
I have read several stories out of the US where people's weddings, funerals, etc. have been postponed by the church or hall in order to limit gatherings so I was surprised to hear that @scottalanmiller was attending one.

@scottalanmiller : You're not in a city that has a ban on large gatherings?
Most of the major cities up in in Canada have already placed limits or outright bans on events (private or public) with more than X people attending.

@jt1001001 : That's definitely not correct.

If the user is using Outlook on PC (not Mac), it'll automatically set the FROM: address to that of the shared mailbox when replying to email.
When setting these mailboxes up in Exchange, ensure that member permissions are : "Read and manage" and "Send". "Send on behalf of" is not required in this scenario.

Powershell is not needed to setup a shared mailbox nor permission delegation.

@scottalanmiller : Just for clarification, what do you mean that Docker isn't cross platform?
It currently runs the same on all Linux distros, Windows, and even OSX. (utilizing the native hypervisor on the two latter platforms).

This is an AV sandbox performing a scan and run on this application.
Happens regularly when deploying various remote management tools to devices with AV.
You'll get some Microsoft VMs, Bitdefender automated machines, Kaspersky, etc...

It looks as though this SPECIFIC device name is from Bitdefender's sandbox :

@wrx7m : The "not available to administrators" is an easy fix with GPO, but does this latter policy also block pending update/reboot notifications as the prior did on ≤ 2012 R2?

With its command line, backstage, and toolbox, we rarely gui to the end user's desktop anymore....

yeah, that stuff is good. but we have most of that with MC too. The more robust CLI is great that we can just fire up either CMD or PowerShell and be interactive. So much faster than SC's CLI, so much more capable.

How is this any different than SC? One can just use backstage to gain either powershell or CMD.
The only benefit I see to MC is that you can run either as the currently logged in user (though don't have much of a need of that myself).

Got it all working. Thanks for everyone's assistance!

@scottalanmiller, that's the plan :
NGINX as the proxy hosting the cert and HTTPS.
Proxy forward to MC on HTTP.

@scottalanmiller : Remotely (i.e. another VM within the stack).
Running one NGINX proxy that forwards requests to various services / VMs using LE certs.

The NGINX config should be relatively simple, it's the info in the MC config.json that I'm uncertain about.

With that said, I just noticed that the pdf documentation contains NGINX proxy info in it now :
http://info.meshcentral.com/downloads/MeshCentral2/MeshCentral2UserGuide.pdf

Guess I have work to do

Happy Holidays!

@Ylian, can you provide a sample json file for what's needed to run behind a reverse proxy that is also providing the SSL cert?

Thanks!

Does anyone have straightforward documentation on installing Meshcentral behind an NGINX reverse proxy?
I note that there's mention of it in their blog and a video to watch but would prefer a straight :
npm install this
edit config.json with these changes for a reverse proxy
See this working proxy config for NGINX

It's not that I can't figure it out, but I have enough things that I'm messing around with right now that I don't want to invest a whole bunch of time diagnosing why MC and NGINX aren't playing together if possible

Thanks,
M

Do you have WS proxying enabled in your NGINX config? AFAIK, this was a requirement for the UCP.
Unfortunately I don't have my old configuration and no longer have FPBX behind a proxy.
