Reading thought your requirements again SyncThing is perfect for what your looking to do

Synthings goes through community hosted intermediate servers, called relay servers, so it's not direct. https://relays.syncthing.net/

https://docs.syncthing.net/users/relaying.html

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.

The normal situation between two residential computers is that a direct connection is never possible because they're both behind NAT or CGNAT.

A direct connection is only possible if you're willing and able to do port forward on either side.

You have no idea what you are saying.

Syncthing has relay enabled by default, yes, but it does not route traffic through it by default.

When you launch syncthing it uses their public STUN server to resolve your local info.

[PGGH6] 2023/03/13 20:20:39 INFO: quic://0.0.0.0:22000 resolved external address quic://209.XXX.XXX.XXX:22000 (via stun.syncthing.net:3478)

Then when you try to connect from a remote, it uses that connection first. It only relays if that listener has closed.

I don't know any platform like that that has built in editors to modify the files that are in the storage

OneDrive does let you edit files directly, in the storage.

How were you able to bring up the editor? Did you just click on file name? When I do that on a url link file it just takes me to the file that the link is pointing to. I can then edit that target file. In my case it brings up an image editor since the target is a .png file. I can't seem to find a way to edit the text of the url link file itself without downloading it first.

I just clicked on the file.

However, if you really think about it, you want exactly the behavior you are seeing. Imagine if clicking on the .url file it brought up the editor for users instead of taking them to the pointer file?

That said, can you right-click on it in the browser and open it in text editor? If not, then I guess you'll just have to do it on your computer.

@scottalanmiller said in Dell Server: The server power action is initiated because the host device initiated a warm-reset operation.:

Just verifying that this log entry tells us that a human hit the power button on the server? This is a log entry in the iDrac.

I don't think so. Warm reset is a reset, like the reset button or alt+ctrl+del.

If you press the power button you get a shutdown / power down but not reset, because after power off it will not start again.

If you have another Dell server available maybe you can verify.

Power button press = Graceful Shutdown
Power button press and hold = Power Off

@gotwf said in Setup NodeBB on Fedora 33 with PostgreSQL and Nginx with HTTPS only:

@JaredBusch So... now that you've had this up and running for a while, care to report on how that is going? Inquiring minds are curious. Particularly w.r.t. resource utilization comparison, performance differences, etc. comparatively. I think you were on Mongo previously, correct? Cuz I am right there with you on the license bullshit. All it takes is one bump in the road, merger, and wham, history repeats and next major version changes license again - only this time to something closed. Have no interest in betting on community to fork and continue. Need a safer bet. It would appear that percona may have already done so w/their percona mongodb offering but I wonder if that would continue as a full fork if/when upstream became closed source.

TIA-- o/

Well 2 years in, i do not run any NobeBB instances with heavy traffic so performance is not even something I look at. I have like 5 of these running for tiny personal projects that people I know have asked for my help with.

@PhlipElder said in MS Edge and pop-ups:

@gjacobse Sorry I wasn't clear. At some point the user was looking for something and clicked on a link in the results that then inserted something into Edge that causes the pop-ups.

We've seen it often enough that we've added search training to our Train the Human regimen.

That - I can see.

@Skyetel said in Skyetel billing error:

Believe it or not, it was caused by a rouge "%" in a SQL query.

Since % is a wildcard, yeah I can see that.

@Pete-S said in ProxMox: Set VM to AutoStart from Command Line CLI Start:

Nice but it's even easier with pure kvm as you don't have to go the roundabout way of using VMid.

virsh autostart somevm

Personally I find the number quite a bit easier.

@Pete-S using your little snippet did not clean up the pinned start menu of the initial admin user that ran it, nor the non admin user account that I subsequently created.

It xbox was still in the start menu, but the rest looked gone.

SIP = Server endpoint?

Server Interface Pod

Taking over a location from an MSP and I found that there were two accounts that were created in 2019 with only one login on that date in 2019, and the password was listed in the account description field..... Luckily this domain will only exist for about a week under our control before we move them to our domain.

Drafted an email for my management to review before I email the CEO of that MSP. Just to make sure it doesn't backfire on me. CYA since I am about to call out an MSP at horrible security.

@NashBrydges Did you try switching the positions of existing CPUs?

@Pete-S said in Force password change on first login over RDP:

Great, so it works if you use RDWeb.

But if you RDP directly to any Windows server or workstation it won't.

Nope. It won't. There's no way around that.

We also have Exchange on-premises so OWA works for that password change.

Don't forget to ground that sucker.

@Dashrender said in PS to download latest microsip version:

I just installed it on a test machine with chocolatey - it installed it into the local admin profile - so any normal non admin user can't use it.

You can run chocolatey without admin rights just fine.

It warns you, but that is because most software is designed to be installed with admin rights in the windows world.

It seems that Microsip does not require that, so run chocolatey as the user itself.

interesting - something else to test then.

will the choco update scripts catch both admin and non admin installed items?

It depends on whether or not it was installed with elevated privileges and whether or not a given software is installed to a location that requires elevated privileges to modify.

@JaredBusch I have a file that exports the username and password in the script, so I am using a password. Sadly this error just fixed itself with no changes and everything is working as intended now so I won't know what the root cause of this was. Thanks for replying though.
