That's my point, we have 3 servers as file servers. And maybe 100 employees, the entire idea is just baffling.

SAM, again this is the same MSP making this recommendation as in past conversations. . .
We have a few locations some over seas, but they all come back to the main office via our VPN for network shares etc.

RE: The Textbook Things Gone Wrong in IT Thread
We have a few separate network shares hosted on different servers at the moment.

RE: The Textbook Things Gone Wrong in IT Thread
My boss is being sold on a SAN for our network of 4TB of data, expected to grow to 6TB within 4 years. Not that a SAN isn't needed but it seems like a really big chuck of any money we have for our virtualization project.
When we could buy two 32TB NAS devices (or build them) for $1500 and have the replicate between each other...

Whats for Lunch?
For me, it's home made jalapeno poppers with Philadelphia onion and chive creme cheese wrapped in bacon, Italian sausage and corn with a side of potato chips (salt and vinegar)

RE: The Egg a Tizen Powered Personal Web Server
Seems ridiculous to run a web server from something so under powered.
A few hundred connections and its down for the count.

Awesome I'll be working on this tonight then.
Thanks for the guidance.

Testing HA with non-matching hardware... I know I know
Because I don't want to go and drop more money on another server for my home lab, I'm curious if it's possible to still configure XenServer HA-Lizard HA between non-matching hardware.
I'm only running 1 VM, that is within the constraints of both systems.
Is this just not possible, is it, or will I wish I had just bought another identical server?

RE: What Are You Doing Right Now
That kind of sucks for what is going on at Barcelona though, that would be one of the places I'd visit for vacation. Seemed like a rather great place.
Yet how does anyone manage someone (or government) saying what they can do with their own property. I'd tell em to piss off.

RE: What Are You Doing Right Now
It's not Barcelona that is doing it Scott, it's this person that is in charge who is acting stupidly for her own self interest.
I can promise you she is in some multi-billionaires' pocket.

Sitting out on the balcony getting caught up here waiting for some onsite work to begin.... turns out we had a tech drive eleven hours just to restart a switch that had crashed before no employee at the site, including the on call local IT guy from another firm, was willing to just power cycle some devices before putting someone in the car to drive two states away to just power cycle things!!

RE: Looking for idea's for my Home Lab
A service such as NO-IP would be capable of handling a dynamic IP for VPN service. Not an ideal solution but it is possible.

RE: Looking for idea's for my Home Lab
So use a third party, or dedicated machine to do this, rather than configure it directly myself.
Defeats the goal then.

RE: Logitech F710 GamePad on an Apple Mac
yeah I'd have to indent all lines that I'd want "quoted" which is a huge pain in the rear.
Edit: It's per paragraph, still goofy that there isn't a function button for it.

RE: Logitech F710 GamePad on an Apple Mac
But do that with the above example would mean I'd have to indent all lines?
Is that correct?

Quoting other sources. Much like the Code function on SW.

Zerotier looks useful, I'm wondering if it could be setup as a VM, to support a VM that receives public traffic hrmmm..... now the possibilities.
