      listening to too much Captain Beefheart I think ...

      Personally, I don't think that is possible.

          Writing some simple powershell scripts as the human factor has been to unreliable to do the job correctly.

          Time to replace the human with automation.

                Exactly, I mean what I've written is 2 lines, including an import-module function and the operation. This portion has been scheduled.

                I wrote two additional scripts to make sure the human still doesn't screw it up, one to check on the above status, and the other to undo the above status.

                All in maybe 3 hours, mostly for discovery.

                          Finishing the nights gaming session - getting set up for another day in the office. Watching the netdata dashboard and wondering what else I can do with this Ubuntu Server.. piHole is next,.. UBNT controller is already on it.

                          Meh - problem for another day.

                              Getting close to back to school - Struggling finding a afternoon daycare that isn't too expensive which is next to impossible - the life of a split custody agreement.

                                Trying to adapt to the eco-system is difficult sometimes when you know there is a better way.

                                • Disabled Powershell
                                • ManageEngine w/ DesktopCentral
                                • Poor (vendor) management of Printers

                                sigh I'm glad to be here,...I'm glad to be here.... I can make a difference -....

                                  I'm assuming these are the headwinds you're encountering at the moment.

                                    Yes - There is generally some headwind as you learn the requirements and limitations in a new environment. Even if some of those practices seem - misguided.

                                      RHCE practice time going over handling errors. Alas, this evening saw me drawing a blank on some syntax. 😞

                                            I'm guessing they can't or don't know how to enforce the execution policy to remote signed for example, and are instead using actually unsecure methods to manage.
