    • How do you manage internal web proxy with roaming laptop users?

      We put a registry key on users laptops to toggle turning the proxy on and off when they are at home.

      What do other people use so that if a user is at home and not connected to our VPN and just wants to surf and check email? Outlook seems to take IE settings so if the proxy is enabled and the user is connected to Wifi only then Outlook will not update and IE won't connect.

      Firefox with no proxy set in the browser is a rough and ready workaround that we also use but far from ideal.

      Users are mostly Win 10. Our DC is Win 2012 R2 and run Sophos Web Appliance Proxy as a VM.

      Thanks

    • Saving space by leaving NTFS hard links with tree size pro

      We have local disk storage and am trying to free up some space on a win 2008 file Server. I'm using Tree size pro and see we have piles of duplicates.

      Any idea of leaving NTFS hard links will cause me any issues down the line? The files are a complete mix of word, excel and jpegs. We have good backups just in case 🙂
      Thanks.
