And the issue was much more than "viewing" it fucked up composing also.

@dashrender said in Vultr performance issues in Chicago:

yeah, in my case that's not working much, because most calls are getting to the PBX, but there is a ton of dead air and dropped calls.

Yes, that is the issue with intermittent connectivity. usually up enough for the trunks not to be failed.

For me it was < 30 minutes for any one customer to be having issues.

Things seem to have normalized, but Vultr still has the issue open.

And Chicago is marked cleared now.

I didn't see what it said before seeing the "resolved issues" at the top...

@siringo have you seen Open-Audit?

@notverypunny said in XenCenter to XCP-NG Upgrade using Bash:

Hey @Pete-S, Have you run across anything missing in doing upgrades? Honestly wondering 'cause we've got a substantial fleet of older machines that we use with xenserver. Haven't hit any situations where it falls apart, just that some of the older processors are no longer supported. Things still work OK, it's just not a supported config from Citrix anymore since the older gear isn't on the HCL for the newer release.

No, we haven't upgraded servers using 6.x. But we've had issues on 7.x that I'm sure must have worked fine on 6.x. Both on the hardware side and on the software side.

If you run very plain hardware with a plain installation of xencenter, using recent guest OSs, I don't expect much problems with an upgrade from 6.x. I think most installations in SMB installations fall in this category.

But on older systems it's also likely you'll find a surprise such as a VM running Windows 2003 server or something like that. Things like that might get you into trouble.

Does the esxi shell have awk?

No idea

According to this it does:

A bit old I know, but zerotier will allow you to access behind doublenat using local ip address

@laksh1999 This will be 100% dependent on the email system in question. There's no "email interface" generically that can find orphaned accounts.

@jt1001001 said in Network Printer keeps re-adding itself:

@mr-jones Xerox has a feature called WSD that allows for Windows to discover printers, sometimes automatically. Try disabling WSD on the xerox to see if that alleviates the issue (we disable it on all ours)

I had to double check, but it's turned off on all.

@Ambarishrh said in PDQ Link:

The only catch I could see is the mandatory port 443 as per their site

The majority of work for Link is done with our installer, but there is one bit that will have to be done by you or your network team. Your external firewall will need to route incoming TCP 443 to your PDQ Link server. 443 is the only port SSTP can utilize. This configuration is mandatory to allow your external clients to connect.

If you already have another service on 443 with a public IP, we need to use an additional IP for PDQ link.

That is what inbound proxy servers are for.

digging an older topic as I am testing this now. Regarding inbound proxy
, what would you suggest to be used?

This isn't that simple, you need a proxy that supports TCP streams, unless SSTP behaves just like HTTPS. You'd need to talk to PDQ support to get more details. If you do end up needing TCP streams, I think Nginx, Traefik, and Haproxy all support that, and there's a mod for Apache too, but if I recall it correctly, it was specifically for MSRPC, so Exchange OWA or RDS.

That's what I was thinking, thanks!

@joel said in Black Screen of death! Is this a Dell thing?:

Hi Guys has anyone come across an issue where the computer powers on but after the manufacters logo (dell for example) the screen goes black and it stays on that screen?

Note: i can use our RMM remote tools to log onto the computer but it's also stuck on a black screen (so cant control it). I can however do file transfers and navigate via remote background to the 😄 - therefore the computer is online and working but the screen for end user (and us remotely) is blank!

I've looked at new monitors, uninstalling graphics card drivers, running disk and hardware scans, system restores (fails) and a bit lost .... i'm seeing this happen more and more in the last couple weeks.

I dont know if Bitlocker has anything to do with it but have disabled this and rebooted but still have the black screen!

I have attempted to rollback updates and that also doesnt fix it!

Safe mode works fine

Have updated drivers, bios, chipsets all of that good stuff but still no luck getting this working in normal mode and was curious to see if anyone else has had this one! Very odd!

In all cases, it's resulted in a re-format.

I think Dell devices are more affected.

@Joel - When you access via SafeMode does the Event Viewer have anything relevant to the issue?

@gjacobse said in How To: if exists; unknown filename:

I am using if exist to check for folders, and have done for a specific file name.
Can you search for *.PST

Yes.

Example:
IF EXIST C:\logs*.log (Echo Log file exists)

Looks like upper limit is 100k in those areas then. Cheers folks

@pete-s said in Getting fed up with HP Active Warranty / Support Agreement Requirements:

You could comfort yourself with the fact that it's only small companies that pay the steep markup. Enterprise customers doesn't.

Grumbles well I have been running my entire server stack off of used enterprise equipment via eBay so full circle of life I guess

@pete-s said in HP Switch config question:

The person who set this up would clearly know what he was doing or he wouldn't have been able to make it work.

I'm guessing it was a move in the making. The intention was probably to move over to pfsense, drop the fortigate and perhaps remove routing from the switch. It's possible the fortigate is old and can't handle routing at line speed, hence the L3 routing in the switch.

I'm guessing the fortigate and the switch was setup long before pfsense.

If the fortigate is the actual edge device, maybe this was setup as a simple way to bypass the pfsense for fussy devices or troubleshooting?

I could see setting something like this up so that you can tell a remote user "go plug it into xyz switch and let me know if it starts working"

So the final answer for this question is, yes. Upgrades are normally smooth.

But the 2.5 branch has some issues , so hold off.

We had several suspicious activities happen at once, along with this activity. I can't go into details.

That said, we contacted our vendor agent and they were super cagey about what was happening.

This is what leads me to believe they had an incident they aren't reporting.

Toss in the fact of these red herring like solutions/problems their helpdesk is providing to the stated problem - instead of saying - oh.. interesting - I wonder if their AV is false positiving us.. no, instead they blaming a website redirect, lack of TLS, etc.

If I wanted to stay in the RHEL world, and the 16 systems would be sufficient I'd likely just use RHEL. Otherwise, if I wanted to stay in the RHEL world, and CentOS Stream wasn't viable, I'd like use Oracle Linux.

On the Sales program thing, I've been in the developer program for almost a year. I joined when I learned about it right before my RHCSA exam to get actual RHEL for practice. Other than E-mails into which I opted in, I haven't received a single sales communication from Red Hat.

@scottalanmiller said in Network backbone compatibility question:

You never want fiber until it offers you something you were missing...

I love to use fiber for inter-switch connections. Pretty much every switch on the planet has SFP available. Why waste the ports?

I'm still only using them as 1gigabit ports though.
