      In case you have a mix of private and public network profiles use this command.

      Enable-PSRemoting -SkipNetworkProfileCheck - Force

      SkipNetworkProfileCheck ignores any public network profiles so you can enable remote powershell successfully.

      Not quite the same as NFS 3 and NFS 4, but we intentionally use NFS 3 much of the time today even though NFS 4 is old.

      This may be good for a fork...but why hang on to NFSv3 instead of stepping up to NFSv4??

      Because the work differently and having the overhead of NFSv4 often does not make sense.

      Can you give more detail?

      They are very different protocols with a lot of different features. NFSv3 is much lighter than NFSv4.

      @obsolesce It's called paravirtualization. And Xen has done it since the 1990s 🙂 Only Xen could do it for the entire VM, not just the drivers.

      @syko24 free... and useless:

      Limitations of the free license:

      The free license is limited to five locks per day which means the free edition defends your system against five unique attacks per day. [...] The free license does not contain reporting (like the PRO edition does).

      Also, no official support for Windows Server 2016.

      I've never had a great experience with it.

      It always tries to search online first for things that I know are on my local system. It irks me too. Like if I'm searching for Putty, it brings up an advert for it, rather than the local application!

      Others have said that as well. I haven't had that experience.

      I've had both experiences. Though lately it's worked as desired - local first, then online.

      that's what's weird, I've had both too... side by side on machines installed the same way!

      yep - I use Clonezilla to deploy machines - it's weird that they act differently.

      The import thing is that you CAN set them to NOT Edge.

      Yeah, well you see... it's no different than what other vendors are doing with their restrictive OSs.... it just so happens that Edge is new and people need to fix their programming 😛

      We don't use DHCP at all

      I would go the other direction then and check for WINS queries and then visit all the NICs that are still using WINS and remove the entry. This article explains it:

      @dafyre

      Windows 98 boot disk creates a RAM disk to store all its files which also happens to be my first experience with RAM disk. You can also copy the need files off the boot disk to create your own RAM disk in windows.

      I've been using RAM disks since 1987 on the Commodore Amiga where we would use it for all kinds of things. Our memory was many times the size of our storage making it a no-brainer. Especially as the storage was insanely slow floppies.
