      Trying to find a Mac installer for a windows based software - I haven't been able to find one yet.
      My next thought is to have them install a hypervisor and create a windows based machine in the hypervisor and install the software there. than they'd have to spin up the VM and run the software.. and these aren't the brightest people..
      decisions decisions.

      With Mac, the hypervisor can be completely transparent to the user. You put a desktop icon for the Windows software on the main desktop, and the user never even knows they're running under a different OS.

      Of course, you have to pay for the hypervisor(s) that enable that for Mac. Just a cost of using the platform.

      interesting. I did not know that.
      which one do you recommend?

      I think we used Parallels.

      That was going to be my recommendation.

      A close second would be VMware Fusion.

      Seems like a good time to try convincing the boss we should move our emails to O365. I know he'll say no, but this is ammo for sure.

      I don't think that email only justify cost of O365.
      I have excellent mail experience with different web hosting providers that provide email service included for a fraction of price of O365.

      For example, Hetzner offers 300GB space with unlimited mail accounts for 17 EUR / cca. 20 USD a month.
      (I have not used Hetzner's mail services but I have very good experinece with them in cloud/bare metal services)

      I mean - you would not convince me to buy O365 with this argument 🙂

      @Saba said in Windows 10 and RHEL 9 Dual Boot help.:

      @DustinB3403 & @Pete-S Thank you so much. I have installed VMWare on Windows 10 and all seems well so far.

      I prefer the other way, Linux on the metal, use KVM built in, and Windows on top. Faster, more stable, and then it's Linux that's "faster" and always there. But I use Linux as my main operator and Windows purely for testing things so.... makes more sense for me.

      A lot of PCs come with OEM Windows license keys in the BIOS. I don't think you can use that license when you run the OS in a VM. At least not automatically.

      So that favors Windows as the base OS.

      @scottalanmiller said in Insurance form and MFA:

      They mean signing into Active Directory, not the server (the server too, I'm sure.) Do your users have MFA when signing into their desktops?

      No they don't have MFA for signing into the desktops.

      They also mentioned MFA for routers. Not sure the edgerouter can do this.

      They LIKELY mean for a VPN on the router, not for the login. But for login, you can do MFA if you only log in via SSH with certs.

      This is old because everyone is super happy with Nvidia now.

      The reason people didn't like Nvidia in the past was an absolute refusal to allow their drivers into Linux. Last week they reversed this and have embraced the ecosystem. So they've totally done a 180.

      All about wine here.

      I just hope we get full on NVIDIA support. I know it will be a little while, but I'm glad to see some positive movement there.

      I avoid Wine if I can... If I can't, I hope I can get the app to work, lol.

      I've rarely had success with WINE as well. I'm sure it works for a lot of things but so much is listed as partially working or not...

      Ironically, the only thing I've had much success at with Wine (even before Steam/Proton) was games. Often times they run better under Linux than Windows.

      I can't say much for current stuff though. Sadly, I'm not running Linux on hardware at the moment.

      Terminal should just be using OpenSSH.

      This might be the issue. Will have a play after my holidays

      In theory, Window's OpenSSH implementation is completely identical to the one on Linux and BSD. I can't way I've tested much in Windows 11, but on 10, it's definitely identical.

      "Completely identical" is a bit of a stretch since it's a fork, so it has additions and changes and might not support everything the main project does. It's likely lagging behind the main project too.

      But "works the same" or "practically the same" or "has the same code base"...

      Microsoft only has one fork, so windows version shouldn't make any noticeable difference.

      PS. In OP's case he has probably hasn't the right key in openssh. OpenSSH and Putty don't share their ssh keys. They are in different folders.

      Correct - you should be using PJsip. Also as far as changing extensions, you can run into the same issue even if you use the same extension number but you change the channel driver from SIP to PJSIP. This is how I've accomplished the task for remote phones that you can't touch. From your EPM, issue a reboot. Then real quick, you change the extension to use PJSIP, go to EPM, and then do a rebuild. If you do it properly, the phone will then grab the new settings and reconfigure itself and work just fine. You can of course do the same thing if you are changing the extension number on it.

      @Mario-Jakovina said in ONLYOFFICE has released ONLYOFFICE Docs version 7.1.:

      (btw - I hate emails as a communication tool)

      I'm an "email first" person, it's my preferred tool for everything communications related. DeltaChat is great and is a WhatsApp / Telegram style chat client built on top of email. (That's actually a form of email client to check out just because it is interesting to see it and realize it is a mail client.) I've run email hosting businesses and run email for one of the world's biggest companies, so I'm pretty passionate about email 🙂

      Zoho is definitely my number one. But it is proprietary.

      If you want to see open source clients in action, I'd recommend starting with MailCow to see what is out there. RoundCube is big, too.
