I think every AP they have can work in bridge mode. I have 2 Nanostations M5 between 2 buildings, in bridge mode, but each can connect to any wifi in range.

RE: Disk2VHD/SQLServer
You answered your own question. Despite having the same MAC and IP, network card has different drivers, so Windows created new network connection, and probably assigned it to different network profile.

RE: What Industry Apps Are Awful and You Are Stuck With?
One more, UPS Worldship. While you can do your shipments online, interface is just terrible. While this app supports remote clients, you cannot install it on Windows server, at least it's unsupported, I haven't personally tried.

RE: Debian upgrade from 7 to 9 - no sub pages display now.
I almost forgot, apache config probably got reset to default. Find your AllowOverride directive in your web root config and make sure it's set to either FileInfo or All. Options directive should also include FollowSymlinks. Restart Apache after making changes in config files.

Use PlistBuddy to add shares to sidebar. You can throw that into dotfiles, and deploy with ansible or example.

RE: Install Chocolatey on all Domains Computers PS
@dbeato said in Install Chocolatey on all Domains Computers PS:
If you have more efficient ways, please let me know.
I use Ansible to install Chocolatey on windows machines. You need to set them up so Ansible can manage them, it's a well documented process though. Ansible docs have all the info for that. Now any playbook or role that invokes win_chocolatey module will install Chocolatey if missing. Here's a sample:
--- - hosts: all tasks: - name: Upgrade all software win_chocolatey: name: all state: latest

RE: Can I use the first IP in a subnet, for instance 192.168.0.0?
@travisdh1 said in Can I use the first IP in a subnet, for instance 192.168.0.0?:
192.168.0.0 would always be a broadcast address(first address in the range).
Wrong. First is network address, last one is broadcast.

RE: How Can You Prevent Non-Domain Users from Getting an IP Configuration
Why do you allow them to wipe the PCs? Disable booting from USB, optical drives and floppy, and everything that's not the drive main OS is installed on, and password protect BIOS.
Next time you catch a user wiping their drive, take it to upper management and recommend termination of said employee. Once the word gets out, nobody will try any more shenanigans.

@MrWright4hire
Thank you all for your feedback on Zabbix monitoring software. However, I'm looking for an actually daily checklist that one may have developed or came across to do daily checks for Network Admins.Do anyone know or have such a checklist?
- Make coffee
- Check email/discord/slack/whatever for alerts - you do have alerts from app/services sent somewhere, do you?
- Verify backups
- Look at performance graphs
- Comb through logs
- Take a nap until phone rings
- Go home
Something like above?

It gets better, how do they know what people are actually storing? Wasn't the content suppose to be encrypted? Why are they looking at people's files?
I knew better when I signed up, so most of my data was encrypted before uploading, but this makes me not want to do any business with Microsoft ever again. -
Virtualization choice on Intel NUC
I just bought one of Intel NUC. I'm looking at different hypervisor options on that box. Here's what I require:
-
management from OS X - other systems are not an option, I only have iMac, and I don't plan to buy/virtualize/bootcamp any other system
-
Adtran vwlan must run on it - I know it runs on Esxi, and I currently have it on Virtualbox, someone got it to work on KVM too, does anybody have any experience with it on other hypervisors?
-
free backups - Unitrends have free option for Esxi and Hyper-V, anyone knows if it works on Xen or KVM?
I'm going to throw a few Linux VMs on it, that's basically all it's going to run. So considering all my requirements, is Esxi with Vmware Fusion my only option?

Cutting the cord
About 2 months ago I decided to show Verizon the door and cut the cord. I was so fed up with taxes, bs fees and equipment charges that I happily accepted $200 termination fee (they still haven't charged it). I live in the area with poor OTA signals, so my choices were limited.
We decided to get Sling TV with a couple of add-on packages and CBS all access. After 2 months I have to say I'm really disappointed with Sling. Service reliability and quality is really poor. I don't think it even broadcasts in 720p, despite me having plenty of bandwidth - I have 100Mbit at home. The idea is great, channel selection is not too bad, but after 2 outages last night and night before, I can't justify paying for it anymore. CBS all access surprisingly works great, with 0 outages, and awesome picture and sound quality.
So I did some digging yesterday, and discovered that I can get Playstation Vue, despite living outside of major city where it's available. And coincidentally Sony announced yesterday it is available on Amazon Fire TV and stick, so I don't even have to buy PS 3 or 4 to get it.
I was also trying to get Time Warner TV on Roku, but their beta program, and probably final service, is only available to their internet customers. And their internet service is much much slower and more expensive that FiOS. So no luck there.
In the end, Sling with add-ons (44 channels) and CBS costs me $41 plus a few bucks sales tax I guess, Playstation Vue starts at $50 for 52 channels, and I didn't see any taxes or fees.
Does anybody use Playstation Vue? How's the quality and reliability? I'd love to keep Sling, but it feels more like beta, or even alpha service at this time. -
RE: Verizon Public Cloud is Closing
I don't know if anybody sane would put their stuff on Verizon cloud. Wasn't it Verizon hosting healthcare marketplace when it first rolled and crashed and burned so badly? And that prompted gov to move to HP?

For Drupal, I use Backup & Migrate module with NodeSquirrel:

I have one VPS that I backup with Bacula.Do you like bacula? I haven't had a reason to set all of that up yet to try it.
If I were to take the jump should I do bacula or bareos?
It's ok for my needs. I still run custom script to dump mysql databases, and then bacula does file level backup. It can be dead simple to set up, or it might confuse the hell out of you. And it's a backup tool designed for tapes originally - I think - but it works with disks. If you decide to try it, use Webmin to manage it, it will make your life much easier.
I've never used bareos, so I can't compare. Its webui looks nice, I can tell it's Bootstrap based. -

RE: Did HP Break the Law Vandalizing Your Printer?
I think the biggest blowback should come from end users. Perhaps we should send those printers back to HP HQ, like people did with AOL discs. I, and my workplace, will not be buying another HP printer in the foreseeable future, so that's one home and one business customer less for HP.
It's hard to tell whether they violated any laws, but perfectly working printers will not work anymore. Before buying their printers nobody really knew they would pull such a dick move. Firmware updates are not mandatory, so nobody is forcing anybody to intentionally cripple their printers, but most people don't read release notes. It's a grey area, but I think it needs a lot of publicity, and HP deserves really huge financial hit.

RE: Veeam Renewal
@Dashrender I'm not sure about these SKUs, but switching between hypervisors is seamless. Just submit request to support and they'll send you correct license.
Edit: If you purchased through Veeam online store you cannot swap hypervisor licenses. -
RE: HP Possible pulling a Lenovo with Stealthy spyware?
Trust no one. Especially not a big corporation. HP is to blame, fair and square. If they got permission, it was probably obscured in such a way the end user couldn't tell what the hell it was.
