With the changes to WSUS and Windows 10 updates how are you managing them from a MSP or maintenance standpoint? I have 40 faculty and staff and would like to still control the updates that get applied until we test in our environment.

Am I missing something? I didn't get a prompt to see the new UI.

Click on the settings gear in the upper right, and then select try the new Gmail or somesuch.

Got it. Not available yet for gmail for business.

Or I can find another ticketing/inventory app to replace

@WLS-ITGuy No issues. Wasn't required to fsck after a reboot.

@murpheous said in New Gmail UI:

@kelly Not really an EAP like in the past. It is now a setting in the admin console. I enabled it yesterday and am using the new interface on both work and personal accounts.

Is there a tier that you have to be at in order to see it? Or should it be listed no matter what?

It is not listed on mine yet, but those are the instructions.

So I'm not going crazy then. Well, at least not about this

Went to check my assets and got this:

Any recommendations or suggestions?

Took the day and went fishing. Caught 4 Northern pike, none of keeper size. Got home and made a pepper jack/Roast beef grilled cheese sandwich.

I think you need a certain amount of posts under your belt before you can do that. I remember reading it somewhere...let me see if I can find it.

I normally go through GoDaddy but is there a better option?

As long as this thread is here (unless of course I need to create a new thread), we are using ZeroTier for SDN, I'd assume that we would still need a VPN and if so, what would you guys recommend?

We have a few tinfoil hat people here who don't do anything on their computer but teach. Although, I'd imagine searching for things related to teaching happens quite a bit.

Am I the only one to still not see the Early release option?

It's finally there!

Well, that was a thread that will fizzle out quickly

Thanks for the assist all.

@scottalanmiller said in The First ChromeOS Tablet Is Out:

This looks like a great tablet alternative. We've been wanting to move the kids off of iPads. This might make sense.

I converted two Lenovo X Yogas to run CloudReady for the girls as their schools both use Google for EDU. Saved me $500. Now I have parents asking if I have anymore of the Yogas.

Not exactly the same as former military but how about anyone that IT is a 2nd or 3rd or later career move.

@marcinozga Gives me a list of files pulled from /etc/php5/cli/

OK, new project tomorrow. Install Pi-hole finally.

Here is how to add porn blocking.
https://mangolassi.it/topic/16905/add-porn-blocking-to-your-pi-hole

So, combining the Cloudflare DNS and the pi-hole filter is basically like having a firewall with content filtering?

If so, I just upgraded 2 of my Raspberry Pi's here at work. Might have a new project for home with one of the older R-Pis now.

I got my 6.5 year old daughter set up with DuoLingo on her tablet. She loves it!

My two daughters (15 and 12) and I are battling. They are kicking my ass.

Good Morning All,

I have been having this issue with MySQL on our main website where out of the blue MySQL services stop. I get this error on the page:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /var/www/wls.wels.net/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1568

And usually if I restart the services all is good for about a week. Now it doesn't even take 2-3 minutes before the services stop again.

I have run through some things that I found on searches but nothing has fixed the issue so far. I am not a linux/MySQL guru by any means and any kick in a better direction would be greatly appreciated.

Just got this in my email as we are a Webroot customer. Not sure how I feel about this yet. I think Webroot is great but have never been a fan of Carbonite.

I'm excited to announce that Webroot has entered into an agreement to be acquired by Carbonite, a leader in cloud-based data protection.

This is great news for customers and partners. The combined Webroot and Carbonite will offer an integrated solution for your top security needs today, and a platform for us to build upon in the future. When surveyed, small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) and managed service providers (MSPs) consistently name endpoint security and backup and recovery services among their top priorities. We see great opportunities ahead in building on the Webroot solutions you trust — endpoint and network protection, security awareness training and threat intelligence services — and extending them to backup and data recovery, and beyond.

Just as important as complementary products, Webroot and Carbonite both have cultures dedicated to customer success. We do the right thing for our customers and partners. You can continue to expect both great solutions and great customer support from us, backed by same team you know today, whether you buy from us or through a channel partner.

Until the transaction closes, we must operate as separate companies. I look forward to sharing more information about our plans after close, which we expect to happen in the first calendar quarter of 2019.

Lastly, a reminder that cybercriminals often use transactions like this as cover for phishing attacks. Webroot will not be changing our banking details or payment processes in connection with this acquisition, and if you receive any communication suggesting otherwise it is likely a phishing attempt. Please call our Accounts Receivable department (number listed on every invoice and statement) to verify the communication is from us. We always recommend implementing security awareness training to ensure you and your employees are aware of the risks of phishing and other threats.

Thank you for your ongoing support, and I look forward to a great future together!

Mike Potts
President and CEO
