Sodium: Machine list blank
I decided to give Sodium a shot, but so far it's a big disappointment. Starting with windows installer, it doesn't check if Chocolatey is installed, and if I'm correct, it installs it again. It should check if Chocolatey exists, and if not, only then install it. And for whatever reason service restart ended up with "'Restart-Service' is not recognized as an internal or external command," but when I run it manually it worked. Perhaps msi installer would be a better idea here.
I got salt-minion service running, but my machine list is empty. I would expect minion to check in with master almost instantly. Over half an hour and list is still blank. Minion is installed on my Win 10 desktop.

RE: Port - PFSense WAN goes offline every Hour
I ran pfSense on ESXi before and experienced exactly the same behavior. I ended up putting it on bare metal, as no solutions worked. Rebuilding it, including config takes minutes, so I saw no benefits in virtualizing it, only issues.

RE: Reiser4 Update for Linux
Um, I don't know how I really feel about it. Reiser was mediocre file system to begin with, XFS was much better in every possible use case, and still is. If anything, they should rename the damn thing, having a name after murderer is never a good thing.

RE: Seriously Windows 10, you cant mount Webdav with custom ports ?
@emad-r said in Seriously Windows 10, you cant mount Webdav with custom ports ?:
Yh 3rd party works like charm, but wanted it to work natively to make it easier for end users.
I've never found anything in Windows to work the way I or users wanted it. Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player, Movie Maker, the list goes on.

RE: Seriously Windows 10, you cant mount Webdav with custom ports ?
Have you tried 3rd party client? Cyberduck for example.

RE: What network monitoring s/w you are using ? Can you suggest one for me ?
Smokeping will do what you want, but last stable version is a bit dated. Nagios, Zabbix, Sensu, Prometheus will all do simple host checks, but might be overkill for your needs. Of these 4 I wouldn't bother with Nagios (or its forks) or Zabbix if you plan to take it further than just simple host status checks.

RE: Windows 7 Pro Lock screen not applying.
One of the windows 10 major updates, 1607 or 1511 dropped the ability to set lock screen via GPO from Pro version, if I recall this correctly. When in doubt, nuke Windows from the orbit, and start over. It's usually quicker than trying to figure out why things don't work.

Damn rookies, real men use fluxbox, or window maker. And if you're really hardcore, then ratpoison is a must, kill the rodent!

I guess I just have to wait and see.

Migrating vCenter 6.5 on windows to appliance
Does anyone have documented process how to perform such migration (6.5 -> 6.5)? Migration tool included with appliance will not migrate vCenter 6.5 to VCSA 6.5, it can only do earlier versions to 6.5. Has anyone actually done such migration? Or am I sol and have to wait for 7 to come out?

RE: SPAM Emails Appearing to Come from Solarwinds
Do it. I always name and shame, it's the other party that has something to lose. And send them an invoice for lost time, and if they don't pay, send it to collection agency, lmao.

RE: Ubiquiti UNMS - First impressions
It doesn't support Toughswitches yet, no support for NVR or cameras, no support for Mfi devices. I wish it would replace Unifi controller too. At the moment it only picked up 2 nano stations, so just too limited for me. Perhaps in the future they add additional devices, firmware upgrades alone across the board would be huge.

RE: OS cloud images, anyone?
@dustinb3403 said in OS cloud images, anyone?:
@marcinozga said in OS cloud images, anyone?:
I had a look at UNMS and the installer is just pulling Docker image. That's a lot of moving parts and getting Docker to run in LXD is a challenge already, just too many variables. There's a feature request to have standard .deb installer.
I thought @JaredBusch posted a guide to installing UNMS in a Debian 9.1 VM on the forums just the other day. . .
Edit: Yeah he did, here is the guide.
Installing Docker in VM is quite different than installing it in LXD container. Think of it as installing Docker inside Docker.

RE: OS cloud images, anyone?
LXD containers by default are unprivileged, some software might not play nice with it. Set the container as privileged and see it issues are gone. Apache is one example when I had to adjust the container.
