Ha I didn't mean for it to look like that, but you did make me realize I made a mistake so I'll have to fix it. Make has a lot of uses outside of jsut building software. It's a pretty awesome utility.
This is one reason I want it done, but rarely do i need to do it from the PBX itself.
Because I create my own config files, I do not get the magic "rebuild config and reboot" button that the paid EPM has in FreePBX.
Generally I only need this when things happen like today when an internal FreePBX system went unexpectedly offline and was rebooted along with the entire Hyper-V server.
BLF subscriptions seem to not update real well to events like that.
Understood, talking about the Paid EPM, Do you see a reason to use it in the Small Business World?
Loads. Even for internal staff, why walk to a phone if you can reboot from your desk?
If you run this command again with different addresses/domains, doesnt it overwrite the previous items in the list, unwhitelisting your previous whitelist addresses?
Correct, this is setting the list. You'd have to append the new ones to the command.
Totally coincidence that I posted this same topic for PowerShell yesterday and today I started moving over my Windows Admin blog content and the first post over there was the same topic, but without PowerShell!
Good article. There is ZERO reason to have a GUI on a Domain Controller. Everything can be done through Server Manager on Windows 10/8
You mean RSAT 😉
Both? You can do a lot of directory management through Server Manager as well.
Ok, agree. Just don't like the Server Manager this much, ugly interface. I want to be sure WHICH drive on WHICH host I'm going to format for example. But that is just my personal opinion and I'm more or less a console fetishist 😉
But when it comes to ADSIedit or AD sites, you really want to have RSAT.
huh?

Those options are generally only there is RSAT is installed.
I learned something new today. I have been using the shutdown command for years. I never realized you could rename a PC with it.
shutdown doesn't do the renaming, you just have to reboot after you rename.
I use "m" instead of c for computer name
/c is the comment for the logs to tell them that you just "Renamed Machine", it doesn't rename it, it literally puts "Renamed Machine" into the reboot logs.
I'm unfamiliar with the Server Core setup... but can't you install these drivers as part of the Windows installation process?
Storage yes, but I'm unaware of a simple way during a stock install to include other drivers. The storage ones are requested, and necessary, during the install. Otherwise the installation location does not show up (unless you don't use VirtIO block devices.) You can definitely add the tools into an image, and there is probably a way to include Ethernet devices ahead of time, but I'm not used to the installation process to know where it happens.
I just select all 3 of the INF files and go... It's always installed everything for me, lol... Just point it at the folder for the right OS and 32 or 64 bit... (Note: This is the way I did it in Scale v4.3... I've not had a chance to use their newer stuff yet.
At what stage are you selecting them?
During the install process... the same place where you go when you're picking the storage drivers.
I rarely do modifications at that stage. Still, handy to have a simple option because a lot of people will get the install done and find that there is no networking and need to know what to do at that point. 🙂
