@kmac76 said in Hosted VoIP???:

My point is - buying a dedicated Voice, or even Voice/Video, or even Voice/Video/Meetings solution is an anachronism. Personally, I view Microsoft Teams, either with Microsoft-provided PSTN access for smaller businesses, or self-provided SIP Trunking, i.e. "Direct Routing," as the best platform. Not all the corner case voice features are there yet - Cisco's platform does that better - but Microsoft's platform addresses much more critical path items that Cisco never will, whereas Microsoft will close voice gap/mostly has.

Huh - I think your idea is sound, the problem is cost. I looked at the cost of Teams with PSTN access and it was outrageous compared to splitting the PSTN access out of Teams. Heck Teams is "free" if you have M365 already.
I looked at Teams PSTN access last year it was around $20/user/month, and there is zero extension to extension calling - i.e. you want to call the person next you, you have to dial their 10 digit number. Not to mention I didn't look into what it takes to manage physical devices (desk phones) connected to Teams.
My host PBX solution and PSTN access costs me around $12/u/m, that's a significant savings.

@JasGot I have a couple customers using the CP960 with wireless mics. They are awesome. They work great for large conference rooms or spaces but another really awesome feature is the mute button on each of the mics.

@IRJ it's like tagging Trump on Twitter, I didn't want to increase his followe count

@scottalanmiller I believe @dave247

Turns out that the embedded controller is defective. HPE has a tech arriving today to replace the defective part.

They also position Ubuntu Desktop LTS above the latest version too.

Which gets super weird. Server I can almost understand, almost. But desktop? WTF

@Pete-S said in Creating email signatures?:

@JasGot said in Creating email signatures?:

For a few people to use? or for an entire organization and forced through policies?

For a small organization where everyone would change their email signature themselves or have an admin do it for them.

If we had the html for one email signature it would be simple to create a script that would create the individual email signatures.

For a relatively small group of people, most companies we work with just have one decision maker create their own, then distribute it to everyone else.

Notes:
The decision makers usually can't figure out how, so we (IT) hold their hand through the process.
Use their e-mail program of choice.
Do it in HTML.
Use standardize fonts (This doesn't mean don't use fancy fonts, it means use fonts that are likely in most OSes.)

Send it around with cut and paste instructions, asking each employee to edit the Name, Title and phone extension accordingly.

For groups under 25, we just do it, it's faster for to just do it than to teach 22 people about signatures. 🙂

Great, thanks!

@travisdh1 yup

What is the basis for this opinion.

Usage. Use it and you will see.

I'm a user of Discourse based forums at a few sites.

That does not answer the question. Because I see no difference either way.

What makes it better in a business setting?

Same here, they seem about the same to me. But NodeBB is faster and I like the dev team more.

Meaning, when someone says pick a number between 1 and 10, I see the only options as choosing a number from the following: 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

The same, because that's what they said. Although I almost never hear that, normally it is from 1 to 10, which is inclusive of both 1 & 10, but between is exclusive of them.

I didn't say that, misquoted?

That's so weird. I wonder how it grabbed that.

If you highlight text and hit quote it uses that as the quote and not the actual post. I read sometimes by highlighting with my mouse as I'm reading. That's bitten me a few times on here.

I knew that it did that, which is why I did it, but didn't realize that it didn't correct mark who said the quote in the first place. Seemed like a handy feature, guess it isn't, lol.

Quote only quotes the previous poster.

@Obsolesce said in Email Signature management:

For us, a large company, HR sends out a template to copy/paste from their email we add to signature setting.

Never have to worry about it or manage anything until the company logo or your job title changes.

Easiest IMO. Everyone at the company does fine with it that way.

Lucky, we have very few customers that can handle that.

A previous colleague of mine just joined https://www.claroty.com/ which I just started to check out. I have not used it though

Thanks, guys. It's actually the most logical solution that the ssh client side decides what keyboard layout to use.

So maybe I was mistaken then or it was something else that was off. I'll give it try with some different settings to verify how it works.

@DustinB3403
I don't doubt it.
There wasn't really any added complexity though. PVE was installed with all the defaults.

@Romo said in Unifi AP Export:

@hobbit666 You mean issues talking about the whole controller or using the api clients? The api clients where not meant to be used directly in the controller.

My personale controller is still on Debian 9, and my desktop is Kubuntu 20.04, this is where I connected from using unificontrol

Think this is where i was getting confused i was trying to run it from the controller itself. I'll try again tomorrow.

@DustinB3403 said in The future of the CentOS Project is CentOS Stream:

@jclambert Yeah we discussed this yesterday here. It's to little to late though for many though as IBM has burnt those bridges.

Yeah, if this was the plan all along, it should have been announced at the same time. What it looks like now is a management panic reaction to public outcry after they've already lost a large percentage of the user base.

@junaidmehmood take a screenshot of your XOA webpage so I can verify some things.

@bnrstnr seems uncalled for since it seems to just be an issue for me

What OS will you be installing?

Proxmox or raw KVM on Fedora if Proxmox gets too annoying.

Annoying in what way?

Like only being able to do some things if ZFS is used.

Gotcha

@scottalanmiller said in Formbuilder services for tablet / phone ...:

It's as if it isn't provisioned (I don't think that it is), but something in the system broke and then provisioned it as a trial instead of part of our account.

Ahh. In Zoho One you have to add the new app in the portal before you use it or you will get the trial version - even if you are licensed for it. It has tripped me up a few times already.

I don't know if it's the same in Zoho Workplace.
