We use ad.domain.tld
No need for split DNS this way.

We find that if we rename the PC, then allow more than a day to go by before restarting, this can happen.

Also, if we rename a PC, then the user allows the PC to go into Lock mode (screen saver timeout with login required to return) they will encounter this upon wake up/re-logon.

In the above two cases a reboot usually resolves it, when it doesn't, we go in as local admin and disjoin then rejoin the domain to resolve it.

Also, in the above two cases, we did not lose the computer in active directory, so after the disjoin/rejoin you'd want to remove the orphan computer from AD.

There's an article online somewhere about why you should NOT disjoin and rejoin the domain in this case, but we have always done it this way and have never experienced ill effects.

I love rclone!!! Use as my first choice for everything involving the move of files between disparate systems!

@ElecEng
We use this as the console:
IOGEAR GCL1800 17" LCD Console with an HDMI to vga adapter

And this as the switch:
Tripplite 16-Port HDMI/USB KVM Switch with Audio/Video and USB Peripheral Sharing, 1U Rack-Mount
Part Number: B024-HU16

We mount the console on the front of the cabinet, and the switch at the back; using the same 1U space. We use keyboard shortcuts to switch between servers. Occasionally (rarely) we have to go to the back and press a button on the switch.

@PhlipElder said in Rack LCD Console with Digital KVM:

Am I missing something? Is the title misleading?

They call it Digital because it is a digital signal between the Console and the SIP, and also because you can access it via a web interface or over TCPIP.

This unit only works with the SIP that has VGA. So it requires VGA at the server and the KVM only has an output of VGA.

If you were to use the Vertiv Avocent MergePoint Unity KVM, then you could get HDMI SIPs (P/N: MPUIQ-VMCHD) and have HDMI at the server, but you would still need a VGA display attached to the KVM Console.

SIP = Server endpoint?

Server Interface Pod

@CCWTech said in Unifi cloud controller going the way of home office?:

We are currently looking for alternatives to Unifi as they have shown they aren't interested in working with MSP's... But who?

We are searching too. They're so hard to get any information from..... And product we want has been out of stock for almost 3 years.

@Jimmy9008 That's hard. It may be time for some tough love.
You could:

1. Don't try and do the work if they will not allow you. Just let it slide.
2. Enlist the remote workers by redirecting them to your boss with the explanation of "no willing or qualified staff on site".
3. Add some urgency to the job hunt for a new employer!
