@travisdh1 I wouldn't host with Microsoft's Azure due to their costs, well accept for 365 for small businesses.
But there are many other server hosting places that are reliable including amazon, digital ocean and vultr for VM's and OVH, Hestner for dedicated. hell you can even colo in the uk for about £50-60 per 1u. I've seen a 5u rack for about £100 the other day.

Just had my first jab today, was given the Pfizer one

Changed my terminal to terminator. Checked on some wordpress installs. Got wordpress security. lots of login attempts from India. May have to Geo ban that country, the emails are getting on me nerves.

@siringo Move everything into the /24 range and then set the subnet to /24. depending on how many devices you have. I always leave a gap for dhcp and static addresses. or you can static map through most business routers, that means you can leave servers and printers on dhcp but the router will set the same address. Entirely up to you how you approach this or how the current setup is.

@eddiejennings Ok that makes sense, If you explain i'm sure they might be ok. But they may be funny with running nmap. But nmap is quite powerful and and can be run with scripts to find potential CVE's. Which ain't a bad thing tbh. all networks should be scanned.

wow a /8 - did they really need 16k devices lol. How many devices you currently got and is there any potential to grow? /24 will give you 254 devices. /23 will give you 512 and /22 will give you 1024. Have you anticipated any growth. are all your devices on DHCP or are some servers and printer static and how far across the subnet are they?

Trying to figure the mechanism being used to activate the licenses for our Windows endpoints.

KMS?

Supposedly. But the VM that should be the KMS server isn't listening on tcp 1688, and the only configuration I can find on it is actually an AD object for a single license with an ambiguous name. The answer will involve me polling various people to try to piece together what people have tried to configure in the past.

nmap -p 1688 10.10.10.0/24

Believe it or not, it would probably take less time to poll people than to get approval to run nmap, but that's a good idea.

What's your position? just interested why you wouldn't be able to use nmap?

Cockpit looks nice and all that, but the version I tried didn't seem to have as many features or as much control like webmin does.

Tried Cockpit on Ubuntu? If so, you probably been using a old version because the only distro that I know that always has the latest version is Fedora.

Yep I'm a Debian/Ubuntu guy. I could probably add the repository for the latest version to try out if it does have more features. I'm normally straight up do everything through cli but wanted to try it out. then I tried webmin out which I haven't touched in over 8 years. They have defiantly improve things on their panel.

We use Cockpit very limitedly. It's only on internally and not machines are grouped together even at clients with multiple Cockpit installs. It's nice and all, but it's not as fast as SSH and there's no real need for a GUI like this so... why bother.

completely agree.

Cockpit looks nice and all that, but the version I tried didn't seem to have as many features or as much control like webmin does.

I want to keep a thread open for the latest in development with Hestia. I will update all progress for this web panel here. It's forked from vesta with active development and Cve security fixes applied. It's in Beta and progressing well.

There is an admin mode where you can create packages and limits. set amount of space,addon domains etc.

here are some screenshots:

Looks good though if it does all. I assume it's a windows based product though?

@dustinb3403 I'm sure that didn't say that to start with lol...

@dashrender haha you got a dodgy static IP lol...

@oksana No Xen or Kvm?

@obsolesce It looks like it's the actual FQDN thats the issue. Dns Issue they are having.

@hobbit666 ddo you have field of view? what about something like this: https://www.broadbandbuyer.com/products/28788-ubiquiti-nbe-5ac-gen2/#content

@scottalanmiller That link not working Scott.

@jaredbusch Do you have to install the remote plugin and login with your gmail account to access the machine though?
