      Wondering why this Dell SMB rep took it upon himself (without asking) to use my reward dollars to send me a monitor I don't want or need. He did it a month ago and sent me a printer. I am sending this one back and demanding a refund.

      Keep it and demand a refund. Unsolicited items showing up at your location are gifts. Escalate the call above them and get your credits back, while keeping the shiny, new, free monitor that they're obviously sending out as a promotional item.

            @kelly that's what scale care is for. We can concentrate on running and sorting the VM's out. If we have an issue scale are on hand to look "under the hood" 😁😁

            Good plan. I was just sharing the mistake I'd made. I opted to skip Scale Care assuming that we would be able to handle it in house. Was a bit of a surprise.

                I'd be reporting him for that... Unless they let you keep the screen and get your credits back. 😄

                  I'm enjoying a day of rain after several upper 90's days (upper 30's for those not crazy enough to be on farenheit). We don't get much here in CO, and this is a nice change.

                    SMBv2/v3 on Windows is apparently mine. . . there are known issues on all sides (from Apple to Windows) of constant file locks for no "known" reason.

                      We haven't had any substantial rain in Rochester for 2 weeks. I think they've declared a moderate drought for the area today at noon.

                          I saw your other thread. It didn't mention anything about Macs. I have had that problem for years. I was considering the Acronis software.

                            With 11 days in the 90's, yes.

                                Yeah I was just asking generally (thanks for responding. . . ) Short of going back to CIFS what options do we really have. . ?

                                    Is this something that gets installed on the server or the clients?

                                    Ah client based.

                                      That's new. I could have sworn it was server based.

                                        So what this solution does is provide me a license to use AFP on my windows server, based on the number of clients that might connect to the server. . .

                                        I'd might as well just use Apple Server in that case. . .
