    @lance Looks sweet man, but I promised myself long ago - no more non-standard keyboard layouts. Goes double for laptops; give me a proper keyboard layout or give me death!

    Same here, has to be a standard keyboard. Except for replacing the caps lock. Make that a Sun-style control button!!

    It's always best practice to disable root login over SSH, especially from the Internet; use su or sudo for root access. Another good practice is to disable password-based authentication; only use keys with a passphrase. The setup you're doing here is useful for allowing scripted/automated connections between machines (e.g. for backups, scheduled tasks, etc) but they should be accounts with limited access, not root. You should be creating layers that make it difficult for someone to gain access to your systems; root keys with no passphrase means you're solely relying on that one strong password (which is one keylogger away from being defeated.)

    Especially since you only need one recursive query on one table. This is a basic org database query using a CTE.

    Except you need some weird loopbacks and stuff. For those of us from severely inbred families it gets pretty complicated.

    The email interface is not even shown! They either haven't figured out how to make it yet or they are not too proud of it.

    It's not completely done. My brother is working on a TTY type translator using this technology for profoundly deaf people. So far the project is pretty cool they are still in testing stages.

    Maybe he hasn't been told. Google cancels these things with no warning.

    Hey Joy, did you find out why they were asking for this? Did they watch a webconference or something that recommended it?

    They are definitely not using SQRL. They are only using a QR code with an embedded nonce to do side channel authentication.

    But it's a first step. It will take very little effort for LMI to use full out SQRL. Actually I'm not sure what they are waiting for?

    Well, I have two units arrived now and setup. What tests would you like to see done to these?

    What is happening is the mapped drive is sitting idle for 15 min and then disconnecting to free up resources. DB applications such as yours get these errors because this connection is not persistent as g.jacobse has eluded to with the /persistent:yes command. This will keep the drive mapped but does not stop the idle timeout from occuring which will continue your error.

    Do this on the machines in question: (also can be deployed via Group policy script)

    Open CMD then right click and run as administrator

    net config server /autodisconnect:-1

    This will set the autodisconnect to never disconnect and you should not see this error any more.

    Give it a try and report back your findings.
