It's up and working, since I forced a time sync, but I'm curious as to why it fell out in the first place.

It happens, NTP is pretty unstable.

....Eh?

"EBay has patched a severe XSS security vulnerability which exposed potentially millions of users to phishing campaigns and subsequent data theft."

Do not understand, the article says they have patched it.

Sure it's fixed now, after -

Despite being informed of the bug privately, the online auction trading site allegedly left a critical XSS flaw open to abuse on the ebay.com domain, and only rallied to fix the issue after the media caught wind of the flaw.

They weren't going to fix it until public announcement embarrassed them to do so.

That is cool

Sure, when I want to buy/download something I have to make sure I pick the correct account - but we've been doing that on mobile devices for years.

Only you people in the WIndows phone world. I've never done that. Not sure when it would even come up.

LOL - I knew you would pick on that - but no, seriously - on my Android phone I would switch between different amazon accounts back in the day because they didn't allow shared content between account on Amazon services.

FYI - Google and Amazon services don't work well if at all on Phones phone (though Amazon does have an Amazon store app for buying stuff on Windows phone, but not for apps).

@scottalanmiller It did. I am also looking at Smart Switches. Thank you.

It's a good middle ground price wise. We use all smart switches currently.

@iroal You need to publish step-by-step how you managed to pull this off. Also list your Server model/spec as well for comparison. This will benefit many people.

Sure.

First I want to test is working properly.

The server is a Dell R630.

RDS Gateways push all traffic over SSL, effectively making it a single app ssl vpn.

This I would need to verify.

Are you saying that the RDS Gateway uses something more than just the RDS client on Windows to establish that SSL connection?

and even so - that doesn't make it safer.

Google also wraps your login inside a SSL connection - but you can still attempt to log in until their system denies you for to man invalid attempts.

How is that different than a VPN?

@johnhooks That's unheard of, a power connector that won't break!

Well the original plastic one broke. And it was part of the brace on the body of the laptop, not the adapter itself. So I just dremeled the hole bigger and soldered a DC connector from Radio Shack on. It's not coming off unless you run it over.

I'm going to guess this is an OEM windows 7 install.. I've seen lots of odd issues with task tray icons disapearing on OEM windows 7 installs. Usually Network ones too, It's usually a blank spot left in the task tray you can see where it should be but, isn't.

@nadnerB thanks man!

@JaredBusch Honestly Jared what the f[moderated] do you care what I do with my personal time?

Mind your own business.

Because bad IT at home leads to bad IT at work.

I don't consider the exercise of learning how to restore a larger partition to a smaller device, assuming data is smaller than the new smaller drive.

I already did 🙂

you're so awesome!

Aww thanks for noticing

@syko24 client likes to throw around big numbers. they are slow payers though.. so we will see.

So I decided to try hooking up a new install of openfire to my domain controller (Zentyal). Turns out you need a more recent version of prototype.js to make it work correctly.

cd /opt/openfire/plugins/admin/webapp/js; mv prototype.js prototype.js.old; wget https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/prototype/1.7.1.0/prototype.js systemctl restart openfire

At that point clear your browser cache if you had started the setup configuration via web browser already, and you should be able to complete the setup using your Active Directory information.

I know, I know, way beyond the article scope, but I figured it would save some of us a little headache.

Something that every user needs to know: "When everything is high priority, nothing is high priority."

I just had a user do this same thing, something that literally cannot be completed until tomorrow, was High Priorority (1-2 hours) today...

I skyped and ask if someone was crying wolf...

@scottalanmiller I almost never use them. A few service accounts and that's about it.
