For this volume we get the Brother HL-L6200DWT. We have primarily Brother printers and have been very satisfied. Printer and ink costs seem to be among the lowest we've found.

Agree that the HL-6200 model is solid

I have been a fan of some of the Brother printers as well. My only complaint is that some of the multifunction Brother printers have odd memory issues. For example if you send a fax and someone prints, you may get an out of memory error. I have seen this on multiple models and on the $600+ models. Also another complaint I get is that if someone wants to scan they have to wait for any print jobs to complete before they can do anything.

@black3dynamite said in Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect:

Ok, on the same fedora minimal install, I install nodemailer and created an email.js file with following code:
var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');

var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
    host: '10.254.0.96',
    port: 25,
    secure: false, //true --> will use ssl
});

var mailOptions = {
    from: '[email protected]',
    to: '[email protected], [email protected]',
    subject: 'Hello',
    text: 'Hello world',
    html: '<b>Hello world </b>'
};

transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info) {
    if (error) {
        console.log(error);
    } else {
        console.log('Message sent: ' + info.response);
    }
    transporter.close();
});
And then I ran node email.js and was able to send and received emails.

But when I add the host, port, from, and tls information I don't see the invite link or can verify emails.
"smtp": {
        "host": "10.254.0.96",
        "port": 25,
        "from": "[email protected]",
        "tls": false
    }
Besides that everything else is awesome.

@black3dynamite - I noticed that sometimes when you make changes to the json file and restart the services, you need to close your browser completely and even clear your history at times for the page to show updates properly.

I figured it out. I added single quotes at the beginning and end of the domain list.

@dbeato said in Exchange 2016 Let's Encrypt Setup:

Download the Latest Release of win-acme from here
https://github.com/PKISharp/win-acme/releases

Extract the Zip file to the C:\letsencrypt folder (You can change this to your own folder).

Modify the C:\letsencrypt\scripts\ImportExchange.ps1 line 94 from

FileName = (Join-Path -Path $StorePath -ChildPath "$TargetHost.pfx")
to
FileName = $StorePath
Modify the C:\letsencrypt\scripts\PSScript.bat file to this
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File ./Scripts/ImportExchange.ps1 %2 IIS,SMTP,IMAP,POP 1 %1 %3
Then run the following to get the lets encrypt setup
letsencrypt.exe --plugin manual --manualhost mail.domain.com,autodiscover.domain.com,webmail.domain.com,autodiscover.domain2.com --validation selfhosting --installation iis,manual --installationsiteid 1 --script "./Scripts/PSScript.bat" --scriptparameters "{0} {5} C:\ProgramData\win-acme\httpsacme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org\mail.domain.com-all.pfx"
Then your SSL in your Exchange should change to the Let's encrypt one.

NOTE:See the source for the Import to Exchange SSL fix below:

Thank you for posting these instructions. I just ran this on a 2013 server and everything worked for the most part. The only issue I ran into is that the certificate only generated 1 of the 2 names on the certificate.

"--manualhost mail.domain.com,autodiscover.domain.com" included the first domain but not the autodiscover domain as a subject alternative name. Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks

Just listing some additional differences between MC and SC:

ScreenConnect offers 2 factor authentication
(Email & SMS
Google Authenticator
YubiKey
Microsoft Authenticator
LinOTP
Duo Security "push" alerts)

ScreenConnect has a lockout mechanism to prevent brute force attacks.

I have not seen these options in MC yet but possible feature requests.

@syko24 said in Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect:

@Ylian - Just curious is the "_" necessary in the config settings?

Ex: "_RedirPort" vs "RedirPort"

Any text after _ is ignored.

Ah so like an on off switch basically. Good to know. Thanks

I assume the answer is yes, but can MC have multiple techs view the same system at the same time?

Remote Printing

ScreenConnect has a remote printing feature. Not everyone finds this feature necessary. It can be a little annoying at times when you go to print and have a crazy amount of printers to choose from. However, a lot of our remote users need this feature.

Is this because you are using SC as a sort of VDI tool, rather than as a support mechanism? That's a neat feature, but not one I was even aware that we had

Correct. Some employees, accountants, work remotely by connecting to their desktop in the office. Remote printing is a must for them. For me I keep a handful of clients on ScreenConnect for quick access.

@scottalanmiller - Haven't done it yet but here is a video for LetsEncrypt with NGINX

A couple options I’ve used that work pretty well and are very affordable:

And https://nxfilter.org is you want something self hosted

@DustinB3403 said in Yealink T42S with WF40 USB WiFi:

Are you able to test the adapter on any other phones?

No, the person's home is not local and she only has the one phone. I am probably just going to send her a wireless bridge and have her connect that. Eventually I will get the wifi adapter from her and can play around with it.

@DustinB3403 said in Yealink T42S with WF40 USB WiFi:

Dumb question, but if you're using a PoE injector, why not just connect an ethernet cord?

Phone is at user's home. They do not have a network connection in their home office. I was trying to use the WF40 as a wifi option. My next thought was to purchase a wireless bridge and then just connect the other end into the injector.

syko24

I was also thinking maybe I received a bad WF40

@scottalanmiller said in Yealink T42S with WF40 USB WiFi:

@syko24 is the PoE on "no network" or is there some network info coming from that port?

Correct, the lan side of the injector is not connected to anything.

syko24

@JaredBusch - I think the problem is because I have an Ethernet cable connected via the injector. I had purchased a poe injector to power the phone instead of the regular ac adapter.

syko24

Has anyone used the WF40 wifi adapter with a T42S? The instructions say to plug in the USB adapter when the phone is powered on and it will prompt you to connect to a wifi network. When I do this there is no prompt. The phone is being powered by a power injector through the Ethernet port. I am not sure if that is the reason for not getting the prompt. Possibly you have to have a regular AC adapter for this to work??? There should also be a Wifi menu option under Basic Settings but that does not exist either.

To clarify, the EdgeRouter X can be put into switch mode.
