    @fredtx said in Did I connect these switches according to best practices?:

    For instance, I've seen your posts where you said you learned some good concepts while studying for the mcsa MCSE back in the 90's.

    That's true. But mostly I learned about the parts that weren't related to them, and mostly from third party sourced like Ed Tittle. Microsoft's own materials weren't bad, but not on par with good educators.

    Also to make @scottalanmiller haooy change the title away from Build a pc. Since you only mean setup windows.

    Ah. I see the disconnect here. I was really wondering why you would assume OS setup wasn't part of the job, but seeing now that I must've titled with the word "build" which threw you off a bit. That's on me. To be fair though, the computer has probably been gutted, so maybe build would apply? At any rate, that's on me.

    ...this.

    The recommendations are based on the original bit. RDP alone has essentially no requirements at all. But if they need to do other things, then that would be the driver of requirements, RDP is a red herring.

    That's fair, it does conflict because I said "just needs RDP".

    I pulled the trigger on a cheapo Dell Refurb. Will do great for this specific scenario. Thanks gentlemen!

    Like many mentioned before WiFi is the more economical choice. Though if it is a must you can also try Ericson as well.

    By chance I discovered that TP-link UB400 works the same as Yealink's own adapter. The phone thinks it's a Yealink adapter - the same chipset I think. Difference is that it's only $10 each and TP-link is easy to find.

    Good to know.

    I would move PBS to the PVE environment since your just dumping data on the NAS anyways. At least then it’s replicated. Don’t forget to backup your encryption key.

    @mr-jones said in Windows 10 Network Icon / Networking help:

    Is the AP using the same network range as the rest of the network?

    @scottalanmiller It's a different VLAN. As there are two AP's on this VLAN, I've confirmed that at least the few other clients that I tried with Wireless NIC's on these two AP's work with this setup.

    Going to try to dive in today unless something pressing comes up. Gotta make time to learn.

    OK - I'm guessing that the VLANs are playing into this somehow. They are preventing your client from getting a DHCP request would be my guess.
    I know you said you have two other devices connected to same network - but are they using the same AP?

    How about a complete reset of all network settings and wifi settings - i.e. forget all WiFi networks and start over...

    @biggen said in Point of Sale System Recommendations, POS:

    I use RevelPOS our retail business. Had it for about 7 years now. It’s ok. Uses iPads.

    I’d probably do Clover if I had to do it over again but it’s too much of a PITA to switch now.

    I've heard mixed things about Revel though - We have an iPad based system that used to be "Bite Squad" but now it's called HRPOS and I have mixed feelings about it.

    Does it work for you pretty well? you said in Retail, have you used it in Hospitality before?

    Yup. Xiaomi has a new tablet being announced THIS WEEK. I'm pretty excited. I hope that it is available quickly as I was about to buy an iPad for myself and this looks like a way better option. However, rumor is that no "mini" size is coming in the announcement this week 😞

    Kubeless years Bottle by default. This is great for simple use cases. However FastAPI offers a lot while still being minimal. I wrote a custom runtime for Kubeless using FastAPI. Here's a demo of that runtime.

    Should this not simply be

    data="WIPRO" ?

    i can do that,i am trying to download more companies like 50.So need to add through [] only

    In bash arrays are defined with parens, like data=("WIPRO"). Then you would need to loop over the items in the array. Something like

    for i in ${data[@]}; do nsecli history --symbol $i..... done

    This Worked.How to make multiple stock there ?

    GNU nano 5.4 #!/bin/bash cd /home/shiva/Documents data=('WIPRO') start_date=2017-01-01 end_date=$(date "+%Y-%m-%d") for i in ${data[@]}; do nsecli history --symbol $i -s $start_date -e $end_date -o 01.wipro.csv done

    @scottalanmiller said in Raspberry Pi 4 as IT Workstation:

    But that means that you can run the lighter 32bit OS version that is faster AND it is already overclocked and includes a massive passive heatsink.

    But the web browser plus whatever else is running in addition to the OS will still eat up what's left of the RAM pretty easily I would think. My phone uses more than 4g of ram easily.

    Not really. It's actually hard to use up the 4GB RAM on the RPI4 as a normal user. Remember that everything running on it is lean, like LXDE for example.

    https://www.tomshardware.com/uk/news/raspberry-pi-4-8gb-tested

    I'd say that if you're happy with the RPI4 performance as a desktop then there's a 95% chance that 4GB RAM will be enough.

    If you're a power user then RPI4 is too slow and you'll probably looking at something with at least 16GB RAM anyway.

    This is why I like the RP400. It's the CPU, more than the RAM, that is the bottleneck for use and the RP400 is like 15% faster.

    @eddiejennings said in Icacls: Granting WO access to folder:

    I would make a group for the users that need to access this folder (even if it's a group with only one user).

    User also needs to map two drives (unc\path1 and unc\path2) that are on a server. The folder %programdata%\liberty software is not and does not need to be shared or mapped.

    User logs into the server (via RDP?), needs two drives mapped to some other locations that's not %PROGRAMDATA%\liberty software, and needs write access to %PROGRAMDATA%\liberty software on the server, correct?

    No RDP in this case. Locally installed application.
    Yes - agree that a GPO using a security group would be better -

    @scottalanmiller said in Need backup solution to replace Veeam:

    I like ProxMox, the backup mechanism is built in and free.

    Built in and free only for full backups to local storage (of course you can mount something to appear local).

    ProxMox Backup Server is a separate product the you install separately, and has its own subscription apart from the ProxMox Virtual Environment subscription.

    But that is what you need to get incremental backups.

    I just set one up tonight actually. I setup PVE on Sunday night. Migrated VM's on Monday. Yesterday I setup replication to the second host. Today I just setup the Backup Server.
