@dbeato said in Protek Support MSP Ransomware Hits Customers in Salt Lake City, Utah:
I think that if it was VPN, still bad practice to have VPN from MSP or any other systems that unprotected. MSPs should not need to have VPN to customers at all.
And vendors wonder why I won’t let them VPN into my network.... ha
Last week was fantastic!
Drove to Greeley, CO - ok that was boring.
Drove to Moab - visited Arches National Park - drove a 4x4 trail - my friend nearly freaked out.. It was awesome!
Drove to Zion National park - walked The Narrows! - man, can't wait to go back.
Drove to Las Vegas - at at Gordan Ramsey's Steak - had the tasting menu - the Beef Wellington was meh at best, the rest was fantastic!!!
Drove to Hoover Dam took some dam pictures
Drove to Grand Canyon Skywalk - paid for the skywalk - was a let down!!! visit other viewing point in that area - SO MUCH BETTER than the over priced, no pictures allowed skywalk...
Drove to AZ south rim Grand Canyon - hiked the 3 mile trail, very scenic!
Visited Bedrock - Fred Flinstone's home town and watched a raptor show - and got to hold the raptor (on a a glove of course).
Drove to Four Corners - it was exactly what I expected - a plaque marking where the four states meet, took a picture and continued on...
Drove back to Greeley, CO -
and lastly,
Drove home.
58 hours in the car, 3200 miles, 5 states, 3 National Parks, a million pictures - great time!
As some might recall, I ran into Wiztree a month ago. I asked the author to look into adding it to Chocolatey.
And he did.

It's been a good year for Dashrender - down 40 Lbs since January!
Brought my mile time from 8:29 to 6:47.
Only bad thing - good cholesterol is a bit low (but bad cholesterol is in the good range). Doc suggested I drink Red Wine to improve the good Cholesterol.
Just read about this free book on that other site, thought i would share a link to it here.
I was restoring some files from our backups when I ran across this.
These files have been sitting there for a month plus. Unbelievably it appears that non of my other network shares were affected by this.
OMG - I think we some how dodged this bullet.

Started an on-premise to Microsoft 365 migration this morning. Only 1 file share to deal with getting into Sharepoint this time.
Sadly, they'll still have on-premise Quickbooks :(
Ug - I just learned I'm going to have to support Quickbooks again here soon.
All I hear in the back of my head is a line from one of the last songs from the Lorax movie.
"Let it die, let it die, let it shrivel up and die,...."
no doubt!
apparently we own another tiny company for a single service that we supply/share with other locations around town... so the owners made a separate company just for that. And it's all run on QB. The previous accountant is retiring and the new person is someone I'll have to support.
Push for a
hard noif possible. needs to be absorbed into the main....Why would you say that - this is a completely different company.. it's books are it's own..
Luckily it's really tiny and shouldn't amount to much - i just hope they have their backup solution in place.
Make them move to QB online then.
Like I get a say in this.

willmight be able to read the files.Fixed it for you!

Good luck.
I just copy them to USB sticks and plug them directly into the tv and play.

@dbeato said in Windows Update #5006670 (October Security Update) - Network printer issues again:
@mc_bol and what will you do for the coming cumulative updates that have the update again? Just keep deferring?
Agreed - what about all the other fixes in those cumulative updates?
@jaredbusch said in script to download and extract MicroSip portable:
@dashrender chocolatey can easily run as non-admin. The question is whether or not the application installs can handle that. Of course your centralized scrips for keeping things up-to-date would not get that use your space one you have to have a script to keep the user space chocolatey package up-to-date also
Yeah, I'll have to look at it - but only after someone else actually picks ownership of the package back up. The current maintainer has stated he's no longer maintaining it.

@dashrender said in script to download and extract MicroSip portable:
Why do you (and Peter) think the source page is better than the downloads page?
Because one officially states what the latest version is. The other you are just hoping that the latest version is listed in a certain, likely, but non-determinant way.
Thanks - makes sense.
