How many switches do you anticipate needing in the colo?

I'm just looking 2 replace 2 at this point.

LOL, so it IS a small office switch anyway. You should be thinking of it the same way we think of a 15 person veterinary office at that size.

After scouring countless sites and articles, only thing that could fully read the drives was UFS Explorer. $700 later and many, many crashes, we are starting to have a reliable process of recovering the data. We have to use UFS Explorer and recover as raw disk images. Then attach those raw images to new VMs manually. Then do a Windows recover to each one.

For later when people find this...

@Dashrender nice

@WLS-ITGuy Typically we use the time to rebuild. Any VM should, in theory, be quick and easy to rebuild. If it isn't, it's the perfect time to make it so.

If you absolutely have to convert rather than move through application migration, then there are disk conversation tools that change the format. There's very little needed for the migration.

For now, I removed the newest Acrobat and reloaded a perpetual 2017 version and it is working again. Clearly something in the last Acrobat Update or maybe a combo of it with Windows Update.

@JasGot said in Sharepoint - Hybrid / Mixed solution?:

I'm open to even the wildest ideas.

Is it only MS solutions for documents that they want, or are other options on the table too? Assuming so, but would be foolish not to check.

Yes, MS Only.

Yet another...

I can't access my State of Utah Retirment: https://www.urs.org/

There is a ppd you can use for cups in the Mac driver.

Primera LX900 - ColorLabelSugned - Payload~~ - Library - Printers - PPDs - Contents - Resources - CL900.ppd

@Obsolesce you can also go with Zendesk as well. It is a solid ticketing system.

I was setting up dnf-automatic on a new system today and recalled this post. I changed the reboot option and it made the systemd file as noted, which is what you report. So are you sure someone did not change your config from never to when-changed?

@scottalanmiller My wife and Slava talked me into going. Wife said I would miss my friends and Slava said I needed to come to meet the new SW.

@gjacobse said in Proxmox and USB support:

Not looked at ProxMox enough to remember or know this answer. And before I dive to deep into this personal project.

Can each VM attach to a specific USB device for use?

Specifics, a raspberry 3D printer replacement

I've only verified this with a USB thumb drive, but it's quite easy if you haven't found it yet.

In VM -> Hardware -> Add -> USB Device

@scottalanmiller Figured it out!
dpkg --purge pve-kernel-helper
Fixed it!

Proxmox is great so far. 2 servers, setup and available for replication/migration via separate 10G NICs that are direct connected. Then a PBS server where everything is backed up to. So far, so good.

@dbeato Nice. Thankfully I haven't had to deal with a Windows bug check in a while 🙂

As an update the solution for Windows 11 now also works for Windows 10 if you are on Windows 10 22H2 and fully updated.

@AdamF I stand corrected and good to know. 🙂

@scottalanmiller said in Resources for Learning HTML & CSS Web Design:

Does anyone have good resources for web design? Good books or YouTube or websites? I'm talking actual skilled design, not "I bought a template for WordPress and changed teh colors using a GUI". I want to get people up to speed on hand coding HTML and CSS, understanding things like Bootstrap and so forth.

I'm not aware of any specific videos for HTML and CSS, but what I have been using here and there is SoloLearn. The Android app for it is great. The best part about it is that for each part of the course, there's public comments. You can learn so much more useful things browsing through those after reading each step of the course. It's been a great help.

My most recent course in Sololearn is the C#. I don't only use Sololearn, but it's a great addition to other resources. I used a great 45-hour Udemy course as my main source. That said, I do remember seeing HTML and CSS in Sololearn.

As for websites, when I need to reference HTML and CSS, my go-to sites are:

HTML:

CSS:

Most of my HTML/CSS usage these days is the ad-hoc need to reference something, so there's likely better tutorials than I listed. But it might be good to check out SASS and SCSS as well, as I have been needing to reference those more and more.
