Turns out: They took the QB endpoint device (i think) off of the Network with this firewall....
That's not what firewalls do.
It does when the computer wasn't put back on the same network .
He's saying that firewalls go between networks, not in the middle of the network. Mapped drives are a LAN concept, so a firewall (device) would not be able to interact with them.
What part of putting on the firewall (think - security door to the outside) made access between rooms inside of a house (mapped drives) inaccessible?
But that's not what i was told happened...
The original house got blown up and 2 new houses were built; one with a security called watch gruad.
They aren't even remotely on the same network. the firewall has it's own Modem, Separate from the other.
. Why? Not even the slightest clue. -
Sneakernet time! Got an iDRAC trying to go tits up, so hard reset and update time.

@WrCombs Have you done any kind of professional personality assessment like StrengthsFinder or similar? That might be helpful on a certain level to understand things about yourself.
Something I tell my team is to look at the things that you are currently doing and when you get done ask yourself the question, "Did I gain energy or lose energy from that task, and why?" You can do some high level assessments of the things you love or hate. It may be that you love programming POS systems, but because you have to interact with a particular person, or people in general, that the task drains your energy. Things like that.

....And the iDRAC default IP won't work because of an old server with an unconfigured iDRAC at the same address... Reboot time.

I have not done a profession personality assessment in years... Highschool we were required every year to do one
that's a good practice. I'll see if I can implement that.

do you all remember the Kat Williams Joke Bout white people being too nice, getting wrong number calls?
Well my phone has rang 3 times today for Medicaid / Medicare because someone keeps transferring them to the wrong number - It's literally a 9 not a 7...
Happy Humpday

@WrCombs Yelling at the poor fool who is calling you because they were given the wrong number doesn't fix the issue.
You'd have to call up whoever was giving out the bad number and yell at them
And they'd probably continue to give out the wrong number to spite you!

I had my personal gmail address put into a Cigna document regarding requests for payment increases. I've gotten so many emails from people. My guess is that there is a person with the same email address, but without the "." between first and last name.

Didn't yell, But simply said.. " Nope, no connection to medicaid... Wrong Number.. Personal Cell Phone
its a 9 not a 7. " -
@WrCombs I get it, I get collections calls for someone who hasn't had my current number for at least 9 years. If I ever find that person I'm going to take my operators fees out of their kneecaps.
They are still using my number as the number they use when they sign up for credit cards and loans. . .

Got it fixed now. though. Everything back on the same network and I was able to map the drive after navigating to that computer through the file explorer -

https://support.google.com/mail/answer/10313?hl=enYeah, I'm aware of Google's idiocy here. What compounds it is that they still allow people to create what could be effectively a duplicate email address. I've had mine since beta, but a lady who shares my name and lives in the Carolinas was able to register an email address without the period.

This is very much correct. I have the same issue.

Classic.
First thing to do is deny them all citing lack of performance, then include some dribble about moving all positions off-shore and combining the Department with HR, Marketing, Security, IT etc. -
