@scottalanmiller I have downloaded Ubuntu 15.10 now.I will try with that soon

Ergo... not an important problem to solve 🙂

Think at this point - going to mark this as Solved.

Awesome..

Who knows how long this vulnerability was in place? Seems like they really wouldn't want to disclose that information or just don't know. Kind of sad for a security company.

This likens back to the Lenovo conversation. Are they malevolent or just incompetent?

Well I half'd it, set the minimum to 1GB and the Max to 4Gb and now have a Committed of 1.4/9.0GB...

So yeah this VM can't do math... or something else is scaling it..

The Pentium bug is back... 2 + 2 = 5!

@Dashrender said:

huh, it sounds like you take that WAY farther that I've seen anyone, including hospitals take it.

We've already established that I am a "What-If" planner with OCD. Would you expect any less?

In all seriousness, though, we have a lot of clients in healthcare and pharma, and they require that level of protection.

I was just told by other people they've been having this issue because of UNC path hardening in windows 10.

I must be in a mood this morning. In my mind when I read this I pictured Windows getting older and having its arteries stiffening up from cholesterol.

@BRRABill I worked as a technician at a Ubreakifix repair shop for a short time.

Would that have been maybe an iPhone 4S, where you had to go in through the back cover and take almost everything apart to get at that screen?

From the iPhone 5 forward, the screens got pretty easy to change out pretty quickly after seeing a couple, but it's also definitely an adjustment starting to work with parts and screws that are 10% of the usual size. Once in a while, something like a flex cable could just seem determined to not stay in one piece.

When receiving a bad part means having to wait for another order rather than just going back to the shelf to look for a good one, that's another disincentive for diy too.

Yeah, I had done a few 3Gs, and it was easy. Then the 4 or 4S ... it involved around 30+ screws. It was ridiculous.

As much as I typically help anyone who asks for computer help (I know, I know) for phones and tablets I send them to the mall.

The user is connecting the intranet LAN inside the office and able to login to the VPN.When the VPN is logged in there is no issue in the browsing internet.
When the user connects to the Wireless Modem from his home,the VPN is connecting but internet is not working.Why?
The environment is Windows 7 Enterprise Edition.What may be the issue?
The proxy is used in the browser but proxy is not used when connected in the Wireless Modem.

In Advanced TCP/IP settings on the VPN, double check that "use default gateway on remote network" is unchecked...

How is ZFS replication burgeoning. It's ancient tech at this point.

It is barely 10 years old. that is not ancient by any measure. Nor is it widely deployed (my own opinion). Yes, new deployments may be ZFS, but there is a much larger base that is already installed and not using ZFS

Ten years old is what I had pointed out specifically. A full decade is pretty ancient by filesystem standards. The install base of ZFS, I'm guessing, hit its zenith some time ago. It's a Solaris-native technology and no new systems are moving towards it but some are moving away. Mac OSX had it for a while and removed it. Linux has it now, but that's about as mature as it will be as BtrFS is actively replacing it.

With Solaris on the decline and BtrFS on the rise, it's hard to think of ZFS as a burgeoning technology now that its heyday is probably a bit behind us and it is anything but new so it doesn't qualify in that respect either.

Okay, that's weird and goes explicitly against MS' stated naming convention. They stated that the term SP used meant that it included the early SPs.

Is it any weirder than the NT 4.0 setup you wrote about above?

The changes were so drastic in SP1 that it barely resembled the RTM.

Yes, because the terms were not explicitly to mean that until after NT.

Whitelisting would definitely do it.

@anonymous said:

@scottalanmiller so it's basically red hat?

More or less, but very lean and without SystemD (yet).

I did not expected to get so many feedbacks. Go MangoLassi!

@Dashrender
For our environment it cost roughly 45K to migrate all data out of our third party Exchange server. This include 5 years worth of compliance achived data.

Why so expensive? Do you need to migrate the archive data? Can you leave it where it is until it expires?

Edit: I've always done my Ubuntu upgrades using dist-upgrade.

Ubuntu doesn't upgrade like that either, or didn't in the past. You still have to change the sources for dist-upgrade to move up to the next one. People on Ubuntu 14.04.3 still use dist-upgrade to upgrade their daily or weekly patches and it doesn't move them to current releases. It takes other changes, like the sed lines here, to make Ubuntu do that.

If that is the case, what is the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade?

Edit: I just checked and the command I've been using is do-release-upgrade... not apt-get dist-upgrade...

Yes, Ubuntu has an extra command that includes the sed stuff specifically for Ubuntu. In Mint, the base is remaining the same Ubuntu now so that command can't be used. They'd have to make their own, which they need to.

dist-upgrade includes things like the kernel that upgrade does not. There is a really old thread about it around here somewhere where I had the same questions and @thanksajdotcom was explaining to me why I needed to switch me standard patching to dist-upgrade because important patches would be missed otherwise.

Yes, RDS is built from XenApp. They are one and the same, XenApp just has more features.
