    So I don't believe it handles snapshots yet, but it still looks like a pretty useful tool that I have been meaning to try out for people who don't want to manage through the API.

    I wanted to make sure I followed up and let you all know that we confirmed that there was no bug. There was a propagation delay that impacted @JasGot which caused it to appear that the 10 digit vs 11 digit input mattered.

    I'd heavily recommend not doing this at all. You get such a better, simpler system but just doing... nothing. Web hosting is easy, control panels are hard.

    Sorry, not clear, could you elaborate?

    Web hosting is a pretty basic task. Like... you copy files, you copy the database... voila. That's all you really do. It's all super easy stuff. Using a "panel" adds a lot of complication that you have to manage the panel and learn how it works - all stuff you could just skip by just doing a normal web server without the panel.

    I've never seen a panel that made things easier, only harder. And it limits you a lot, generally they don't work with all of the pieces that you'd want to use so you end up with a half assed web server, with a heavy panel on top, that's more risky and more work, with no benefits.

    I thought he was talking about something like how web hosts use cPanel. I like Vesta Control Panel, but there are some others such as CentOS Web Panel and ISPConfig. They all do everything.

    That's what I mean, too. It makes using a web host so hard.

    @syko24 said in Exchange 2013 - User deleted all emails - recovery options:

    Just another thought, I backup the server with Veeam Agent for Windows (free). If I installed Veeam Backup and Recovery, can I read the contents of my Agent backups? Then I could potentially use Veeam Explorer for Exchange to extract the contents?

    that should work.

    Just a follow up, I was able to install Veeam Backup and Replication (Community) and imported my Veeam Agent for Windows (Free) in to it. I was then able to use Explorer for Exchange to mount the backup file and export the emails from the user to a PST.

    @gjacobse said in Parental Control options: AD, LDAP, piHole, Other:

    Was asks recently about what options he could look at to try to keep his kids on task with the up coming school year and the high likelihood of having to contin he with non-traditional instruction, ie: classes at home.

    His first though was of course some kind of Domain; costly and hardly worth setting up for a maximum of five computers.

    Another option that came up was LDAP - which I will admit I dont have much experience with.

    And then there is piHole, knowing that this is a great tool to blacklist ads, and harmful sights, but could likely be a simple solution.

    He’s recently admitted that one of the kids has managed to hack a cell phone to by-pass some or many of the parental settings that had been set.

    Costs are of course a factor ,...

    We have a domain here at home. But then, I'm in the industry. 😉

    We also have a SonicWALL TZ300 set up with security and site monitoring.

    DC DNS is set to check OpenDNS (we have a subscription). Root Hints are disabled.

    DC provides DNS for the home network. Firewall is set to allow TCP/UDP 53 from the DC only (this is default for client setups anyway).

    This catches about 90% of everything that could possible. OpenDNS helps with the search stuff too. It filters out stuff they should be seeing.

    We have Microsoft Family set up on all of the kid's machines.

    NOTE: Tech companies have deemed themselves owners of our kids. How? When the kid turns 13 they can turn off monitoring. I was right p*ssed off when I figured that out as I wasn't getting parental reports for my eldest son. That changed RPQ.

    Use Microsoft Parental Monitoring on all Windows devices. It is helpful though not perfect. We schedule device usage time.

    RULE: No. Devices. In. The. Bedroom. PERIOD
    RULE: All device work must be done such that the screens face public.
    RULE: Devices are Tools not Toys (No gaming here. Go outside, Build something, Clean something)

    Note: We home school. Our main goal was, and is, to give our kids the best d*mned education that we can versus the cookie cutter factory schools that teach closet Marxism/Socialism here. Eldest daughter is an amazing artist at 16, 13yo son is into REVIT, Fusion 360, SolidWorks, stress engineering and more, while our youngest just is. They are turning out great.

    @JaredBusch said in Vyos Configure DHCP Server:

    @EddieJennings his second error is related to DNS.

    This is a working DNS setup.

    set service dns forwarding cache-size 150 set service dns forwarding listen-on eth7 set service dns forwarding listen-on eth7.2 set service dns forwarding name-server 1.1.1.1 set service dns forwarding name-server 8.8.8.8 set service dns forwarding options server=/domain.local/10.202.0.21 set service dns forwarding options server=/domain/10.202.0.21

    Correct. I gambled from his title the immediate interest was DHCP. I lost. 🙂

    So our Dish network is down and not sure when it will go back. We are outside US, our TV system diagram is like this --- DISH > Encoder (HDMI to IP) > Enseo System/IP network > STB > TV. SInce our source channel Dish is down, can i use roku as source channel? is there a roku channel that continuously going to play movies?

    We cut the cord over a decade ago.

    Just drop it.

    @BraswellJay said in FreePBX conference scheduling ...:

    With the FreePBX implementation the same PIN is set for every call that occurs on a particular conference bridge which would seem to be a security concern.

    That's the same as the others, they are just changing it automatically in between meetings. You'd have to do the same thing... either manually or through automation. It's the lack of pre-existing automation that makes it tough.

    @scottalanmiller said in Recover Deleted Items in Outlook:

    If there is a way to know this, it would be from the email system, not from Outlook, and would be dependent on what the email system is and how it logs and so forth. But since emails in folders is ephemeral (they can move around all the time) it's a complicated thing to answer regardless.

    Indeed. I always forget people attach outlook to non exchange servers.

    @EddieJennings said in NGINX config issues:

    I want to make sure I understand the problem. When you request http://my.testingtesting.com you receive a 301 redirect https://1.2.3.4 ?

    ...You know what. I think I have bigger problems. My machine off campus all of a sudden cannot ping the FQDN. When I remote into campus and ping the website I get the public IP address. Ugh, well I guess ignore this, maybe it'll straighten itself out once I fix this issue.

    Use DNS to test what the FQDN is pointing to. Pings are always by IP, so if it doesn't work then it is the wrong IP.

    Though - if you have a second layer network like this, you'll need to inform your external router on the internal networks and how to route them.

    Routing to the internet is mostly just a nice to have.

    This is how drive testing is such a deep topic. You need to try and match the load, and consider all the things. CrystalDisk does not do that.

    You can set up some really good tests with iometer. (I think that's waht it's called, i can't remember now it's been a long time and can't look it up atm)
