Thanks. I'll see if he wants to bother with a newer card.

No, trying to get dual mons working on Win 10 Pro. I could get a new card but then I have to make sure it's going to be under 65W (I think that's the max) then try to get it to work. He's got the Quadro already so trying to work with what he has. Like I said, I'm close to just letting him know he needs to suck it up and buy a workstation but thought this might be worth a try.

I have a client who just upgraded their server and with the retiring server, wants to use it as a workstation for one of their staff. It's a Dell T320. He has a Quadro 600 card which I've validated will work in the server but can't get the dual monitors to work. And to get even one working with the video card, I need to disable VGA from bios. I've spent about 30mins on it recently and I'm not wanting to spend a ton more time trying to figure it out for him but, if someone here has done something like this and can save me some time, I'm willing to give it another go. Otherwise he's being told to stop being cheap and buy a damn workstation. He wants to run Windows 10 Pro on the workstation (T320) if we can get the video thing figured out.

Any ideas?

Well this is a bummer.

Well that was suprising.

Surprising, yes, but it still felt meh to me.

@kelly said in What is your perspective on the overall tone of interactions here on ML?:

Am I being too sensitive, or can this be a somewhat hostile place at times? (Telling me that I'm wrong here is not being hostile, btw.)

Nope, not oversensitive. It's very true that this can be quite a hostile place.

Two things I try to keep in mind.

1. I'm an adult. I can choose to participate in the animosity or choose to ignore the assholes. I pick and choose what is useful here and to be honest, the useful stuff far outweighs all the other bullshit I see.

2. I'm a professional. I know more than some, and some know much more than I. So I don't care too much if someone is going to be an asshole. Because if I post a question and I get useful information, I'm ahead, despite any animosity or hostility. If I post a response to a question, hopefully it's useful to someone. Of course, if I post a response and it is technically incorrect, I appreciate the responses that allow me to learn. Everything else gets ignored (most days).

Here's a new one on me and google-fu is failing me.

I have a client with a Windows Server 2012 R2 running 1 VM in Hyper-V. Everything works perfectly on the server and the VM except that integration services shows the vm was created on Dec 31 1600. Checked dates on both server and vm and everything is accurate. I checked the version of integration services and it is already on the most current version. And all updates have been applied to both host and vm. This isn't affecting anything as far as functionality but really weird. Anyone else seen this before?

@joel

Sometimes Hyper-V will puke all over itself when trying to install from network ISO so in most cases, I end up copying the ISO from the remote network folder to a local folder on the Hyper-V server after I've created the network drive.

1. Create network drive on Hyper-V server from cmd with net use z: \\10.10.10.200\some_folder /persistent:yes /user:username "supersecretpassword"
2. Create local folder for ISOs on the Hyper-V server from cmd run mkdir c:\ISO
3. Copy the ISO from the network drive to the new ISO folder from cmd with copy z:\my_iso.iso c:\ISO

If you don't want to keep the mapped network drive, remove it from cmd with net use z: /delete

The key is to have the ISO locally stored on the Hyper-V server. Once you do, you can use Hyper-V Manager to navigate to the local folder on the Hyper-V server to connect the ISO to use to create the VM.

@obsolesce Haha, sorry, this was supposed to be a response to Joel's post about firewall powershell. Tagged the wrong person.

@joel If you followed the steps I layed out, you HAVE to log in as WSMAN\username where username is the user you setup on the Hyper-V server. I don't know why but without "WSMAN", regardless of the workgroup name, the remote management doesn't work.

@obsolesce I don't have to run any firewall powershell commands. The steps I listed above are literally all I need to do. I did this on a server about 10 days ago. Installed perfectly on a Dell R420.

These are the steps I follow when setting up a Hyper-V server with a Windows 10 machine to manage in a Workgroup environment. Works perfectly every time.

From Hyper-V Server:

Enable Remote Management

• Select 4 on the menu
• Then select 1 for Enable Remote Management
• Go back to previous menu

Enable Remote Desktop

• Select 7 on the menu
• Then select "e" for enable
• Select 2 on the next screen for Allow clients running ANY version of remote desktop

Run Powershell Commands

• Type powershell in command window and press Enter
• Type "Enable-PSRemoting" and press ENTER
• Type "Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Server" and press ENTER
• Select "y" when prompted to confirm and press ENTER
• Exit Powershell by typing "exit" and press ENTER
• In command prompt, type "net start winrm" and press ENTER <-- Use this is can't connect later to server

From Windows 10 Machine

• Control Panel -> Programs & Features -> Turn Windows Features On Or Off
• Enable Hyper-V role and press OK
• Launch Powershell as Admin
• Type "Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "IP_OF_HYPER-V_SERVER" and press ENTER
• Type "y" when prompted and press ENTER
• Type "Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role client -DelegateComputer "IP_OF_HYPER-V_SERVER" and press ENTER
• Type "y" when prompted and press ENTER

Edit Group Policy

• Click Windows icon and type "gpedit" and open Group Policy program
• Local Computer-> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Credential Delegation
• Edit the "Allow delegating fresh credentials with NTLM-Only server authentication"
• Click "Show" button to add items
• Add value "WSMAN/*" to servers list and click OK

Manage Via Hyper-V Manager

• Start Hyper-V Manager and click Connect To Server and add IP address of server
• Select "Connect as another user" and click "Set User"
• Enter user login details with username in format of "WSMAN\Username"
• Create Virtual Switch as needed

You looking to backup the server and the NAS? What does the server do? Is it virtualized? What brand NAS? How much data is on each device?

@jimmy9008 I haven't read the ToS in some time but can't remember restrictions about personal vs business on the free plan. Just limited to 50 alert types.

The Pro plan can check every minute but I think that's the shortest interval available.

As for tagging, if you send emails to your ticketing system, you could use the email attributes to create ticket metadata tags for reporting and filtering from there. Reporting from within the website is limited but since I only use the free version, that may be why it's limited.

I think Samsung has cellular in their latest watch, too. But haven't tried it.

Indeed they do. Doesn't require a phone at all.

I'm waiting for a fourth gen one before I consider getting one.

I have the Gen 2 (without the integrated dial capability - needs the phone to use) and I've used it to receive calls before but not a real fan. Too "Inspector Gadget" for me and not loud enough, although that could be because I'm getting old lol. Otherwise the thing is awesome at everything else, even tracking my heart condition.

Not sure if this fits your needs 100% but certainly works for my needs. I use uptimerobot.com. They have a free and paid version but I only needed the free version. If a site does not respond to pings, it sends an email to my ticketing software to open a ticket for me to investigate. It can do more than just verify ping as well such as look for content on the page and flag if found or not found...etc.

Of course, this only works if your sites are externally available.

@emad-r My APs only get rebooted after every update.

I have noticed that there are a quite a few threads on something not working properly on Fedora 28. I guess it is just that it seems to be the preferred OS and people are using it more than others.

Yeah there's a real love affair for Fedora here but in my case, when I couldn't get this running on Fedora and was able to get it working flawlessly on Ubuntu, guess what OS it's running on right now. Many guides for setting this up on Ubuntu out there.

Are there? I feel like I looked at the time and in order to get it working you have to drop to Ubuntu LTS, same as dropping to CentOS from Fedora. I thought Ubuntu was plagued by the current versions not working the same as Fedora/CentOS are.

Yeah, this is the guide that I used and was finally able to set this up.

https://chasewright.com/2017/08/01/guacamole-with-mysql-on-ubuntu/

Right, that's not "working on Ubuntu", that's "working on old Ubuntu". It works on "old Fedora", too. If we were willing to treat Fedora poorly, like we often are willing to treat Ubuntu, it would work equally.

I think people are often way more forgiving of Ubuntu that Fedora/CentOS and it makes it look like things work in one, just because the standards are lower.

If you actually read the post, there are instructions for getting it to work on newer Ubuntu. While I haven't bothered trying it out yet since I just don't have the time, I definitely plan on doing the install on 18.04 as soon as I can. I'm certainly no Linux expert so I'm hoping I can muddle through this on 18.04 but I have no doubt you'd have a much easier time.

That's where Fedora is. 28 works, but with lots of muddling through to replace the compiler. The issue is Guac doesn't work with modern compilers, so all modern systems are affected.

See, you're outside my realm of knowledge here which is why I come and hang out here for a while...to learn.
