@ccwtech said in Microsoft XPS Document Writer v4 Missing from Win 10:

I did an in place upgrade of Windows 10 and it looks to have resolved the issue.

That is awesome, I will need to try it for a Quickbooks user with the same issue here.

You could do something similar to this & use /data for storing vm's

0_1529273038336_screenshot_17.png

Could do that, but it loses usable space, and is unnecessarily complex. Unless he's doing something complex with the /data partition, like using a different file system or needs to snap it separately from the OS, this is just a waste.

Also, don't use swap partitions. That's not horrible, but it's unnecessarly complex and rigid and not considered best practice today.

Swap is part of the auto-partition setup.
I did not create the swap...yes I know it says "manual" at the top

Yes, but once doing any intentional management of the storage beyond just taking the defaults, best to remove it.

Ctrl+Alt+End does nothing using Gnome w/ Wayland.

That's true

Check and see if the repo is in /etc/yum.repos.d -- remove it if it is.

Yep, that's it. Thanks!

You're welcome!

I'm not entirely sure... I'm very new at Linux and have just downloaded the HP link as above.

Depends what you want. nmap works well for a lot of info. arp-scan gives you a simple table of MAC, IP, and manufacturer.

I think that like most of these things, they expect you to manage it through Group Policy or similar mechanism if you want control instead of relying on OS defaults.

It's a workgroup environment.

None of those mechanisms depend on AD. AD provides no functions of that nature.

While third parties can take advantage of Group Policy - what is your Free solution recommendation for taking advantage of GP in a workgroup setup?

I'm pretty sure local policy is not considered GP.

Local Policy IS GP. It's always local policy, just whether set remotely or set locally. GP is just setting local policy. There is no central control, it's pulled by an agent on the client and local policy is set by the agent.

The sky is the limit for replacement.... script, Salt, Ansible, Puppet, Chef, cfengine, etc.

@ccwtech said in Multiple switches - connection:

For connecting multiple switches (3 in this case), if your router has Gigabit LAN, is it best to to have a cord from 3 different ports on the router to each switch or to have the router go into 1 switch and then daisy chain the switches... or... does it really matter?

Neither. Router to Switch at the hub, then spoke other switches.

Correct. that is what I said, in a slightly more technical way.

@ccwtech said in Ping... Is a 2 or 4 ms return on ethernet significant?:

That's their main switch. No other switches to bypass.

The point was ping something besides the server.

The server has all kinds of reason to provide bad responses.

If nothing else pings with odd response times, it means it is the server.

I update and reboot weekly where I can.

There are a few systems that fall out of this process though.

@ccwtech said in Patch Tuesday - Intel Network Drivers:

Apparently Ninja doesn't control that, so it must have been Windows update defaults.

Wow, check it and see if you can apply a GPO to not allow for that.

As soon as the fire is out... I'll have to take a look.

It’s coincidental. Not visiting them 🙂

I've not used them, but the price and features seem awfully good.

happy birthday!

Always wait these out.

The only time I wouldn’t is if I have a snapshot pre update that failed and just revert to it.

I stumbled upon Comet Backup and Wasabi. Any feedback about them?
