  • Getting Domain Information / Owner

    Getting the owner and other information about a domain

    Looks like I need to gather information on a domain - who owns it,. registered through, and expiry date.

    It's been a while since I have had to do anything like this. Tried whois and didn't seem to be getting any real information about it. I think the register is GoDaddy.. but would like to confirm so I can take the information to the club board. They have 'had enough' of the lack of response and such from the 'current' admin (pfft,.. if that is what you'd call his total dis-interest and lack of doing anything).

    While nothing wrong perse with how its done,.. he 'pays' his yearly dues with the registration costs.. and then uses Google Sites (sigh) for the hosting. ;

    No one can figure it out, I tried and gave up. just want to move it to a true host, using a true CMS that is understandable.

    tnx

  • RE: WINGET: Not available on Win10.

    @travisdh1 said in WINGET: Not available on Win10.:

    I found that the name has changed to UniGetUI recently. I've been using it recently since it does all the Windows repositories I know about.

    I seem to remember WingetUI,.. But This is a case of a fresh install of Win10 not having the 'updated MS Store' that even has the native Microsoft Winget.

    I will however take a look at UniGetUI.. My goal maybe was simply just staying out of the MS Store,.. and using CLI like chocolatey, apt-get and the similar...

  • RE: Dell r720 and Hitachi Drive

    @IThomeboy80

    I think I have already tried this and it didn’t work.
    That said, I also may not have work ask thing I have tried.

    When I got the 720, I also got a 710. The 720 had eight drives in it, but was given to a friend to host one of our games. Turns out those drives had windows 10 on them.

    We dropped them in the 720 and it will boot, but still complains about the iDrac…

    It’s been a bit crazy between a new roof, plumbing issues and rain from Helene. No damage to the house, but the an area has a lot of trees downed…. Nothing like this in NC or TN..

    I will try again and see what happens

    Yes, this unit does have the iDRAC port also, which is why this seems weird…

    iDRAC -

    Ended up being short lived excitement when I came in last night to see that I could access the LifeCycle controller and was able to get the iDRAC connected.

    Used the reboot option and that was it I suppose... Back to LifeCycle controller being disabled and the iDRAC being inaccessible.

    Odd also is that it seems to only allow one of the four main NICs over the iDRAC NIC - Has it been so long since I worked on something at this level that I've misconstrued some information on how the iDRAC NIC is suppose to work/

    Sadly,.. While I can access the PERC I cannot access the iDRAC;

    iDRAC settings Version: 1.65.65.04
    SWC0700: iDRAC is not ready. The configuration values cannot be accessed.

    The PERC sees all drives installed, but the State is Blocked.

  • Dell r720 and Hitachi Drive

    Specs:
    Dell r720 surplused
    Hitachi HUC106060css600 512 drives

    I admit - I've realized that the last server I had to physically touch was likely back in 2009. While I have worked with systems, I've not had to build or rebuild an array in a very long time. So I am a tad rusty.

    System does see these drives - I have a full complement of sixteen to fully populate the two bays. However I have run into a slight issue with these drives I hadn't had to work with previously as technology has changed.

    These drives are per the details above 512/512e and the r720 doesn't want to 'accept' them. While the PERC does see them, they are all marked as BLOCKED.

    Now, I understand that sector size is set and cannot be changed - I rather expected to find the correct firmware needed to update the PERC to allow these drives to be used...

    I do see that Dell has the driver for this drive - but reading the details about it seems to point at an OS side issue and not the PERC.

    I fully expect that I am simply overlooking the solution because I am looking at or for the wrong information.
