Veeam

Looks like a ticket system migration is in your future.

OK. So if I have 3 servers that have the following:

pbxserver.site1.org at x.x.x.1
secserv.site1.org at x.x.x.2
weather.site1.org at x.x.x.3

I could use one wildcard cert for all three servers, correct?

IP addresses have nothing to do with it.

I knew that - I was just making sure people knew they were indeed on 3 separate servers.

Yes.

Not sure why my brain wasn't grasping that. Maybe I need more whiskey in my coffee this morning

Thanks!

I am sure this a N00b question but here goes anyway.

With wildcard certs, can I install them on multiple servers or does it have to be one server?

Does it matter that www.site1.org is at x.x.x.1 and www.site2.org is at x.x.x.2?

@wls-itguy https://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-pulls-windows-10-october-update-version-1809/

WOW! That is a major Fuck up! Although with all the backup software available for end users I say you should have been better prepared

When is 1809 available for update?

EDIT: Are you guys seeing this in Windows Updates? I am not.

Intercept X Endpoint?

The Services manager at my 1st MSP gig said that "Efficiency doesn't always pay the bills"

We had been using Avast for EDU and now they have decided to remove the free for edu option. Before that I had Trend Micro deployed but the price raised exponentially. Looking for the best option for protection and price point.

Ha

Um maybe someone will. .

The early tickets are good if you just want to meet people, otherwise, meh.

What are you talking about? I get everything anyone who paid $199 or more for. I just registered right after the 2017 Spiceworld.

Barracuda Email Security Gateway 400 Appliances (x2)

We have the 300 model. Are you happy?

My general opinion of all Barracuda devices is that they are overpriced for what you get. It does it's job though and the support on it is pretty good. I wish it actually load balanced when clustered though and the clustering itself only applies to some of the configuration.

I wish they would have better explained the AD integration differences between the 300 and 400. The 300 has AD synching but doesn't do SSO so the end users have to have a separate password to login to see messages caught. Then I have users who don't know their password, can't figure out how to reset the password.

Long story short, My boss has taken a new job outside of our org. This has put a boatload of tasks on my plate and I can no longer attend Spiceworld this year.

Anyone want to buy a ticket? I paid $99 on the early registration deal.

We are up for our renewal on our current spam filter and I am wondering what the masses here use?

@wls-itguy said in Force Mailbox deletion in Exchange 2016:

So the answer is yes it is gone through the ECP and is now in Exchange PowerDOS

Well, if you Disable a mailbox it is not shown as disabled until 24 to 48 hours in the ECp. Also deleting the mailbox doesn’t translate on space save as the space is not changed on the DB.

Not worried about space. We created a shared mailbox for a calendar and then they wanted to change the name of it so instead of creating a new mailbox I changed the name and alias and then found that not to be working right so I tried to create the right name and boogered it all up.

All good now though.

So the answer is yes it is gone through the ECP and is now in Exchange PowerDOS

I remember in 2003-10 exchange there used to be a place where you could "purge" out mailboxes that you didn't need before the retention policy was up. With Exchange 2016 that seems to be gone or at least I cannot find it in the ECP.

Am I wrong?
