I feel like you guys are just talking past each other. WSUS itself is free but requires a Windows license. That's all that needed to be said at the beginning and I think none of that thread would have occurred.

The first major patch update in the Ubuntu 14.04 family is now out.

New features in the latest release of OwnCloud, the leading self hosting cloud storage platform. It released three days ago on the 23rd.

Here is the features list: http://owncloud.org/seven/

Saw this advertised today and thought that it would be worth sharing here.

Just wanted to be the first to wish you all a happy SysAdmin Day! Anyone have special plans today?

eWeek made a slideshow of screenshots from the upcoming KDE 5 Desktop Environment. Hard to tell from the slideshow but it looks a little more easy to use than KDE 4 and its Plasma was. That was very confusing.

Windows IT Pro has some info too: http://windowsitpro.com/hyper-v/create-hyper-v-2012-usb-boot-stick

@ajstringham I often find that after I get up to get a drink that time slows down for me too. Sometimes the entire night disappears.

Wow, those are amazing! I doubt Amtrak will be rolling those out anytime soon.

Red Hat is claiming RHEL 7's startup time is now 3 seconds, down from 20 seconds in RHEL 6!

According to the BBC, Microsoft Plans to Merge Windows from three separate operating systems down to one. This seems like a sensible move. Make everything lighter and just customize on top, much more like Linux does, in many ways.

What is considered an American breakfast in the Philipp
Bacon and Egg with fried rice..

That is not at all an American breakfast. Bacon, eggs, toast and hashbrowns would be an American breakfast. Sausage instead of bacon is fine. Canadian is the same but with backbacon instead for the meat. Once in a while more than one meat but rarely.

Those are all devices that I am not surprised to see having problems. Why use only consumer devices? Home lab... good spot to use business gear for experience and resume building.

Yeah, like I have the $$ to front for REAL Cisco business-grade equipment.

Why look at real Cisco? Or why look at consumer-ish Cisco? There are enterprise routers cheaper than the small business Ciscos like MikroTik and Ubiquiti. They are fully managed, full featured enterprise routers with more bells and whistles than the small business Ciscos and more throughput too.

A container of Lego pieces went overboard and they are washing up on the beach in England! Hot day for beach combers.

Just noticed, they are looking to hire their very first system administrator!

That is a very complicated setup. Since they have the MPLS, why aren't they using it? MPLS is not a technology for point to point connections but for making a mesh behind the scenes. If they are not using the MPLS to connect all of the points together it sounds like someone in the networking department is confused as to how MPLS works.
