I think very few people deploy Sharepoint in house anymore.

I have entire customer's sites hosted within Sharepoint. Not the usual collaboration stuff, straight up consumer level sites. Like, huge company, 500 sites a host level. We had a lot of other customers use Sharepoint to extend their site's abilities.

For a simple share, yeah, go O365. Extend the functionality to other stuff, you need a local install.

Not that I am aware of. It all functions. NobeBB runs theirs on https with an Nginx proxy also.

Don't really see bandwidth bottlenecks around here. I never saturate my lines.

Finally, everything is working fine! 🙂

That was tough! But now seems to be an easy one, Just need to learn more and dive deep into SP.

Wow.. must be nice to work somewhere someone want's to spend money!

Ah good.

I am still waiting for the dev to give me more info on the type of request/data transfer happens between the tab and server. If it's just a Web service request then my life is easier, webserver with ssl and am done. Initial info is that it's a Web service.

Coming from Apache, I would assume so.

I think we need to start a new section for vulnerability and security related news! 🙂

Just use the "News" section and tag "security".

This post (https://forums.zmanda.com/showthread.php?5572-ZCB-is-closing&p=17597#post17597) has an email address and telephone number if you want to ask whether your data is comingled or how you might move the almost 11TB of data to your own storage space in Amazon.

Cloudberry is nice because it provides you with a connection to your storage which potentially any backup software could use as a destination target. A number of our (StorageCraft) customers point to Amazon as an offsite repository.

Cheers!

If as Scott mentions that 3rd parties get the usernames and passwords - that's even worse than this breach!

Yes, far worse. Anyone can have an accident. Sharing usernames and passwords is a breach of ethics, not security. I'm positive Dropbox is doing no such thing.

Well in a hosted system you don't have analogue lines so that isn't a factor for us.

I've wondered this myself, but more generically than just Ciscos and ASAs.

I did this with Barracudas when I demo'ed them a few years ago. The Barracuda each had their own self signed cert, and you imported their public key portion into the remote side for authentication.

I'm not sure how it would work if both sides are using the same wildcard cert - I would think you would loose a large part of the security.

No problem. A simulation will tell you a lot.

I had a NFR version to test out 6 months ago but was buried in work and couldn't get to it before the time ran out!

I need to add some process after discussing with the Project Managers, just to ensure that we don't end up using 100% resources of servers and if something new comes i will end up terminating some to accommodate new ones. Idea is to ensure to have some policies like, x number of hours/days needed to fire up x type of SP farm (single server, multi server- 6 servers, 8 servers etc), If there are new projects coming in, share the infrastructure proposal with us, so we can check if there are rooms for this new setup, if not order new servers to provision etc.

Look like a good opportunity. Likely a lot of competition.

@JaredBusch VPN speeds are in latency terms. OpenSSL produces a bit more latency than IPsec does.

Have you started your logging project yet?
