I don't?Every Job Posting I've seen requires some knowledge of AD.
Yes, like how to attach a desktop or change a password. Takes seconds to learn. You've already done those things. Learning to deploy it isn't a bad thing to know, but not a priority. No one is ever going to hire you to set up a new AD system, just to do basic maintenance of an old one. You literally can learn that stuff in an evening. So put in your one evening and move on.
I did that already. Only thing I gotta figure out is how to add a Computer/device to the domain

Upgrading Nextcloud to current stable.
I'm running all those workloads on Docker. Makes life so much easier. No more per-application handling.

Last time I looked, wasn't the docker container of NC community sourced?

f964b9c86514 nextcloud:latestyep, that link points to the Docker Hub page I've linked above. Snap... well, I don't like them, but that's personal preference.

BTW @WrCombs: If you want to learn something really useful, learn PowerShell. Scripting helps you to automate repetitive and error prone tasks like user creation, group assignments and so on. You could build a script to assign users to groups. That script could also inform users and managers about new assignments by mail. That's what I do with our research assistants and students, for example.

Along these lines, having a script to remove a person from security and distribution groups makes like easy as can be when you get a termination notice 5 days after the fact. . .

Forget about books. They are old when they hit the shelves. I think I own about... erm... maybe 15 IT books? Most of them are 15-20 years old, some are about programming languages, two are about SharePoint installation and administration.
Essentially everything you need can be found online.
