This is good. I'm sure many newbies miss the firewall currently because of 1511.

Greetings to @ak as well.

Good, we needed a warning.

That's ridiculous. Anyone heard if a fix is available yet? This is a lot of downtime. Anyone with this issue would have had to have replaced their firewall by now.

If I were a Barracuda customer, I would be looking for a new vendor, even after the fix was available!

That's just unacceptable.

I think you'd be looking long before one was available!

If it were me, an IPTables firewall/router is easy enough for emergency deployments.

Lots of things are. Even a Cisco ASA is easy to toss in quickly.

Once you bring down something production as a young tech, you will never do it again.

Are you certain of that?

Might be the start of a career-long trend.

Cool. When did "VLC for Mobile" get added? I had no idea that that was available for iOS.

@scottalanmiller that might be worth its own topic.

Found this gem over the weekend when organizing stuff.

You lost it in your house?

That's a lot of people!

I wonder how much business training needs to be included? Like "don't confuse technical people with sales people". And of course "you are not special" and "don't get weird."

This could be actually more important than the IT knowledge in general - so the IT people need to know this And whoever they report to!

I suppose this is the stuff he expects you'll get in college. Especially if you do a business or accounting degree?

New to me.

What's new in the latest version?

I'm a fan of any scotch

Well that distracted me a bit.

Greetings @G-I-Jones nice to see a new face.

Great to see osTicket getting traction.

I finally got my hacking lab setup. I have 3 180 day trials (Windows 10, one Windows 8.1, and Server 2016) running so it will get a littler smaller soon, but I am loving it right now.

Nice

Don't think that there is much more to add here. Fill the owner in on the deets, let him decide now to proceed.
