@scottalanmiller said in Ubuntu Server "Search Domains":

It's not a LInux thing, it's a general networking thing so the same on desktops, Windows, wherever.

This is correct. If I recall right, within the Windows network config GUI, it's called a "domain suffix.".

Sounds right.

@EddieJennings yeah, that would be nice for sure.

@CCWTech said in How to get Chrome to remember which monitors to open on:

I gotta go back to Ubuntu I suppose... I just wish there were better games for it...

I use Ubuntu as well, and never had an issue playing any and all Windows games on it. Some may not have behaved or performed as well as on Windows, but if you're that bad with Windows it's likely not going to be a show stopper for you.

A couple of years ago, we discovered that AT&T geoblocks all VOIP traffic from India. We sent some configured phones to them, because the bosses were told by AT&T that it would work fine. Nope. All the tracert results clearly showed them dropping the traffic. But then a few months ago, it started working! The India team emailed me asking to change out the names/extensions, and since then we've had no problems.

@scottalanmiller oh I don't doubt there's a real person behind the account, but I don't think it has a single time engaged with the community other than to throw around marketing posts. Super duper spammy. I can't stand visiting the site without being logged in, having to navigate around all the spam from that account. If I want to browse StarWind Blog posts, I'll just visit their site.

@IThomeboy80 You are welcome. I keep falling more and more in love with Proxmox every day. It's just a great product!

I feel the same way.

Looking forward to the possibility of doing some migrations off of ESXi.

@IThomeboy80 said in Suggestions for an IPTV player for Ubuntu:

Maybe VLC might be a good option since it plays almost al media type files.

It doesn't handle many channels

@DustinB3403

Ha! That's the thing though, I am curious if sudo will be (at least partially derived) from the sudo we know and love, or will it be Microsoft's own thing that happens to use a command named sudo.

Very impressive, so few people are actually looking to research and learn, just to argue. Kudos to him.

The Linux / Windows approach gives you far more flexibility. MacOS is useless in a million scenarios. But when it is good, it's really good. The UI is still pretty crap, but things like patching they can do with a reliability no one else can. No matter how hard anyone tries, vertical integration of components means things like patching can be tested completely, not just spot checked.

Yet another...

I can't access my State of Utah Retirment: https://www.urs.org/

@scottalanmiller Figured it out!
dpkg --purge pve-kernel-helper
Fixed it!

@dafyre Yes, I did. I am using a different kernel now and for the moment, things seem to be happy! (Ish!)

@CCWTech said in Windows defender quarentined my VM... WTH?:

Server down this morning...
VHDX File is just gone... It's missing...
I found out that Windows Defender had detected it was (or had) a virus and quarantined it...

How Windows defender even would ever quarantine a VHDX is beyond me.

Come on Microsoft!

That's odd. VHD/VHDX files are NOT ever scanned by the host, unless of course they are mounted in the same way as a disk or USB disk is to the host OS for example. Otherwise, they are treated like a black box. So something else had to have happened for it to be quarantined by the host OS. That doesn't just happen willy-nilly.

Additionally, VM files are automatically excluded when the Hyper-V server role is installed. So again, something isn't configured correctly or something weird is going on.

What happened to you isn't default behavior.

Not sure, we 'inherited' the server. We don't do HYPER-V any longer. Everything is KVM now. (Proxmox)

But it was for sure quarantiined. Funny thing is that Windows defender scan of the actual VM shows no virus... So weird.

My guess would be that the VM's AV cleaned it up separate from the host's AV killing the VM.

@gjacobse I'm setting one up in our lab today and as a basic SMB router with VPN capabilities its OK. Compared to an ER-L I'd probably stick with the EdgeRouter.
