@Jimmy9008 What is bringing on this question? Are you in a position you feel is paying you much less than you deserve or did you move to a new area you aren't familiar with?

Office 365 Business Premium which is the < 300 user equivalent to the E3 license is $3/u/m which is less than the pricing for Zoho's Docs (assuming more than 5 users).
Zoho Docs is actually $1. But they don't advertise it. It's included with email believe it or not.
In our $1 we get Zoho Mail, Cliq (IM), Connect (up to 25 users, that's their Yammer equiv), Docs, Writer, Sheets, Show, Notepad, and a few other little pieces. It's actually pretty amazing how much is included. And if we go over 25 users and want to keep Connect, it's just $1 more for $2 total.
So why is the information on their site so different?
Yeah I use Zoho Mail too, can confirm that docs comes with it.

@wirestyle22 Yes, we are in different cities. They are a new office, my office is where the AD is setup at. Potentially, if I can get this to work I would be moving another ROBO to this method for authentication.
wouldn't it be better to put a domain controller at their site and sync between them?

RE: Equipment Placement in Rackposted in Water Closet
top 24 port patch plugs into the top 24 ports of the switch, bottom does the same on the bottom of the switch. Cabling company forgot to patch like 38 ports at this specific site which is why the patch panels aren't the correct number.

I also do this with the ISP equipment (below). I didn't happen to have my UPS installed yet so ignore the cables going along the wall for the verizon tech.

I did this for a client recently. We mounted the UPS vertically instead of in the rack, put less strain on the rack. We don't have any servers.
Top down
Patch panels
switch
firewall
shelf for NASIf you have room. I like the:
- patch
- space
- switch
- space
- patch
Arrangement. Gives room for some cable management tooling. Also if you have the room an oversized rack makes cable management so much easier.
I prefer this:
- 24 Port Patch Panel
- 48 Port Switch
- 24 Port Patch Panel
- 24 Port Patch Panel
- 48 Port Switch
- 24 Port Patch Panel
This is extremely clean patch cabling

OMG HPE just won't stop calling. We are so inundated with calls because they were at Spiceworld. Every day we get one or two. It just never ends.
Time to start blocking numbers... or answering the phone "hello, this is the NTG sex dungeon, do you have an appointment?"
just breath heavily into the phone. no need for a plot
That, then creepily ask "what are you wearing?"
I'd go with something more off-putting like naming textures you don't like
"Have you ever known the utter chaos of tearing off the velcro to your favorite set of kicks? HHHHNNNNGGGGGGG"

Apache without the workload
Not sure how I would achieve this. I must have missed this comment
You remove the conf file that points to whatever application you are trying to host.
Right I'm having trouble locating it. Been looking for awhile. I'm going to try to talk to one of the developers tomorrow when they are here

@DustinB3403 My go-to sauce for wings is Frank's red hot. But last night I made wings with the new Trailer Park Boys sauce, which is fantastic. Pretty mild but super garlicky. I could drink it with a straw right out of the bottle.
I'm a Secret Aardvark fan
That's one I haven't tried, but it has been on my list for a while. I've been trying to cut myself off from ordering sauces until I pare down the collection a bit.
It's the most delicious hot sauce I've ever had. If you try it and have something you like more let me know. Always on the look out

It's just a problem I am working on. Anything else gathered from this is wrong. If my boss tells me to install a printer, i install it. If my boss tells me to try to diagnose a problem on a server, I do it. If he comes out and tells me to stop I will stop.
When am I just doing my job?I get it, sounds like it is your boss with AJS here.
So my situation doesn't change. I am still working on this issue.

The realm problem here is France demanding control but not offering 24/7 support. We are on every continent. Doesn't make sense.

RE: httpd dead but pid file existsposted in IT Discussion
@DustinB3403 If we restore it's going to take a long time. It's over MPLS to France. One file is nothing. I will test and if that doesnt immediatley resolve it, they will start the restore process.

How is this AJ Syndrome?
@scottalanmiller would state because you're making it sound as if this system is your only goal in life and that you have to fix it, or else you'll go mad.

I get it, I would take the same stance with the addition of "boss this system is ancient, I can't get documentation anywhere. The best thing I can do at this time is to ask the recovery team to do their job and restore this system. Once that is done can I then investigate what may have happened"
I requested a file level restore to see if my hunch is correct. If that doesn't work then I will put that in. In the mean time I'm going to try to get approval to reinstall the module.
