Really what's the draw to OneDrive for Business? Is it the ability to modify OneDrive documents directly using Word or Excel? As NextCloud and LibreOffice keep improving, I see Microsoft losing a lot of customers in this space.
LibreOffice just released 5.3 which has new cloud functionality.

Sounds like you can sync shared folders to the desktop now.
Today, we are enhancing OneDrive with the ability to sync SharePoint Online team sites—including files used inside Microsoft Teams, Office 365 Groups and OneDrive folders—shared by others across PC and Mac platforms. Now you can work with all your Office 365 files just as you would files stored on your PC or Mac—even when you are offline
I know this doesn't explain why the access point is having the issue but you can try updating the ap through ssh just to get it upgraded.
Sorry missed the part where you said you moved the VMs to another system.
Here is another possible solution. - http://www.wintips.org/fix-network-adapter-code-31-device-is-not-working-properly/

@Dashrender - I think low voltage is one of those things that a lot of installers cut corners on because most people aren't going to check their work above the ceilings or down the walls. The client typically just cares that the jacks work and that's it.
Are you implying that the client will check other things? Like power wires, etc? I highly doubt it.
No but cabling and recabling is sometimes done after buildout of an office. No inspector checking the work.

@coliver Thanks for the reply.
I have seen cases where the installer sometimes just bends a piece of conduit at the top of the drywall but doesn't run the conduit down to the box. I assume this is because there was not the room or desire to rip open the wall completely to run the conduit.
That is probably the case but as long as the cable is plenum rated then you're probably fine. But I would check with your local code enforcer just to be sure.
What does plenum rating have to do with going down the wall? Most places don't allow you to run non plenum rated in plenum spaces, but if his drop seeing isn't a plenum (air return space) and is instead ducted, then he shouldn't need plenum rated cable.
That's true riser may be fine in this instance. Generally anything above a drop ceiling is often plenum space in an office building. So he would need the plenum rating for that area.
My experience has been closer to 50/50. For example, my current building is all ducted.
Fair enough... also why @syko24 should talk to their code enforcer.
Totally agree with checking on code. I guess my question was more for personally knowledge. I've seen cablers do things differently from job to job and was just curious what was best practice. Or when hiring someone to cable I can be more knowledgeable.
Obviously use your Ethernet adapter's name
@pchiodo Your situation sounds similar to an issue I had a while back. I could not figure out what cause was but my workaround was to disable and then enable the network card in the VM. I use a schedule task to run at start up. Below is the script I use.
netsh interface set interface "Ethernet 2" DISABLED
netsh interface set interface "Ethernet 2" ENABLED

If you are running cat5e/cat6 above a drop ceiling and need to cut a hole in the drywall to drop the cable down to the mudring below do you need to have a sleeve or piece of conduit to meet firecode? Or can you drop your cable and fill the hole with fire rate caulk? I know codes are different depending on your area but was just curious what the proper method would be generally speaking.

@Danp said in Dell R720 vs R720xd:
@syko24 Absolutely no issues with buying an unit from that generation of Dell servers. Buy from a reputable seller who backs it up with a warranty and you shouldn't have any issues.
Check out xByte.
That's where it is from. It was one of those email offers xByte sends out every so often. The total price of the server is almost the cost of the drives alone from Dell. Can't really pass it up.
@RojoLoco Thanks for the link.
I had received an email from xByte to buy this model at a pretty good price. Does anyone think buying a system that is a generation old would be a bad thing for a production system?
Does anyone know the difference between the Dell R720 and R720xd. I know Dell had servers advertised as "cloud server" at one time. I think many have said to stay away from those models. Is that what the "xd" model represents?
Thanks
@Farhad-Farahmand - There are options built in UniFi if you are using Ubiquiti gear.

Willie Howe does a ton of youtube videos on Ubiquiti. The one below is integrating Stripe but you can do a voucher style system instead.

@Dashrender - www.AdvancedMD.com currently supports only Internet Explorer because of ActiveX. They are working on a Chrome compatible version that is supposed to be released in the not so distant future.
Hmmmm according to this it seems that it may already be available. http://www.advancedmd.com/blog/advancedmd-for-any-browser-a-sneak-peek
Last time I checked it failed to login from Chrome and had a message saying that it will be available soon.

@guyinpv - Take a look at www.erpnext.com
It has great features that tick a lot of the boxes you are requesting. Best part it's open source - (free if self hosted). They even have a VM preloaded with the software.
@scottalanmiller said in Zentyal 5.0 release in November:
That's the core selling feature of Zentyal and all of its competitors, and the only thing that people normally mean when they say that they want a Windows server (other than SMB protocol which everything has.)
That and the Exchange (OpenChange) feature that is apparently getting scrapped for now.
@guyinpv - Really a Synology or ReadyNAS would accomplish everything for you. Again, nothing more than Linux with a nice GUI to manage.
