    • RE: Setting up Nginx on CentOS 7 as a reverse proxy

      @zenbu said in Setting up Nginx on CentOS 7 as a reverse proxy:

      @JaredBusch I setup a reverse proxy with nginx for ScreenConnect, but the relay port isn't working. Can you provide your setup for how your relay is setup? Does it require two different IPs?

      That's not HTTP traffic. You would have to set Nginx up for TCP/UDP load balancing

    • RE: SSL/TLS client certificates questions

      Domain name doesn't matter, unless you're signing with a public CA. I'd think self-signed vs internal CA vs public CA would depend on what the authentication mechanism supports and how you have to manage the certificates. (i.e. if there are going to be a ton of them it might be easier for the authentication mechanism just to trust certificates signed by a certain internal CA rather than having to make each certificate trusted.

    • RE: Hello IT Community!

      Cross educated people are valuable, and IT/Dev is kind of standardly recognized. However, being a beginner in both doesn't fit that mold and can actually hurt your resume when trying to get into the field. If you highlight IT on a junior Dev position, it can look like you don't understand the position the job is for and your resume could get instantly tossed right there.

    • RE: Is there a MS Licensing expert here regarding remote OSes?

      If a device is licenced with Windows 10 Enterprise with SA, the primary use of that device can access windows 10 on VDI from that device. If the primary user of that device needs to access Windows 10 VDI from another device there is an add-on licence that can be purchased. It looks like they no longer me too it in the licencing brief. It might help to look at older licencing briefs since the focus is mostly on per user licences now.

      Also if you go with FTPS instead of SFTP you have to deal with UTM/Next Gen Firewalls messing with the traffic on the client side all the time.

    • RE: Yet another way Azure sucks

      Yeah, so then you figure it's a great idea to put every VM and the resources only associated with it in all separate resource groups.

      Now say you want to give someone access to a bunch of VMs but not all VMs in the subscription. Well, you can't nest multiple resource groups under a parent resource group. You could move them to another subscription and give that person permission at the subscription level.

      But hey, what about Azure AD groups? So you create an Azure AD group and assign that group permission to each of the resource groups. But there's a limit to how many individual permission assignments you are allowed, and guess what? Now you've created a back door that would allow an Azure AD User Admin to give themselves access to your servers and resources.

      The solution? Azure AD Administrator Units, create a whole new Azure AD Admin unit that does not share User Admin roles with your normal Microsoft 365 tenant, but guess what? Now you need to get licences that include Azure AD P2 for some people in order to use Administrative Units.

      @flaxking said in Cellular repeater - looking for recommendations:

      I'm thinking of getting something too and finally disconnect the landline. We will mostly use internet, but we need a backup if the internet goes down, other than driving until we get signal.

      weBoost is the common booster around here, but I'm hoping for something cheaper.

      Get Starlink as a backup.

      Already did preorder, just a waiting game now. And Starlink probably isn't going to be the backup.

      One thing to note with ad.domainname.com is that in some places it will just display your domain as 'AD'

    • RE: Slack? What is it?

      At it's core Slack is a chat app. Think Teams without video calls or SharePoint integration.

      It's also kind of treated like a shared mailbox. I.e. a channel will get sent alerts, and that's how people get notified and can talk about it right at the alert.

      "ChatOps" is kind of the next step here where with integrations and bots, you can trigger actions from right within Slack. A benefit of this is that the log of the action and the conversation surrounding it is all logged in the same place. Someone looking back at what was done could see the whole history of events (alert raised, talk that something should be done about it, and the action being done triggered and recorded right there)

      I have never heard of Slack being the only interface for something except for internal tools. It makes the most sense to use it for integrations when you're already having conversations there, but maybe the benefits of having the action log and the ability for different people using the integration to leave notes in the chat could mean it could be worth it to use if there are not other tools that does the same thing.

    • RE: Looking to Buy a SAN

      I've recognized an IPOD and witnessed it play out.

      In the end the business decided it made more financial sense to put 200 VMs in Azure.

      But not plagiarism

      Right, it's never plagiarism unless you for example tell chatgpt to output copyrighted content, like tell me the exact content of xyz, such as an existing book.... If it can do that or close to that. Then use that content in the same as if you copy word for word from the book. In that case you are.

      Right, exactly.

      I asked ChatGPT about it directly, and it said this:

      As an AI language model, I am a form of technology that generates text based on the input I receive from users. While I am not a human being, the text I generate is still considered someone else's work.

      In the case of using my output as your own, it would be considered plagiarism if you do not properly attribute the text you generated through me. This is because the text I generate is based on a combination of machine learning algorithms and vast amounts of pre-existing text data that has been created by humans. Therefore, failing to properly cite the sources of the text you generate through me would be equivalent to not citing the sources of any other work created by human authors.

      In summary, failing to attribute the text generated through an AI language model like myself can be considered plagiarism, even though the output comes from a machine rather than a person.

      ME:

      You said "can" be considered plagiarism. In what cases is it not considered plagiarism?

      ChatGPT:

      It's important to note that the issue of whether or not using text generated through an AI language model is considered plagiarism can be a complex one, and there is no clear-cut answer that applies to all situations. In general, however, it is not considered plagiarism to use text generated through an AI language model if:

      • You use the text only as a starting point or source of inspiration, and you substantially reword or rewrite the text in your own words.

      • You use the text as a secondary source, and you properly cite both the AI language model as the source of the text and any other sources that you drew upon to create your own work.

      • The text generated by the AI language model is in the public domain or has been released under a Creative Commons license that allows for reuse and modification.

      In any case, it is always important to use your best judgment and consult with a teacher, professor, or other authority on academic integrity if you have any doubts about whether or not your use of text generated through an AI language model could be considered plagiarism.

      ME:

      Outside of academics is the same true?

      ChatGPT :

      Yes, the same principles of attribution and integrity apply outside of academics as well. While the consequences of plagiarism may not be as severe as in an academic or commercial context, it is still considered unethical and can damage your reputation and credibility in a given field.

      If you are using text generated through an AI language model for non-academic purposes, it is still important to properly attribute the source of the text and obtain permission if necessary. Additionally, if you are using the text to create a product or service that you plan to sell, you should be particularly careful to ensure that you are not infringing on any copyrights or other intellectual property rights.

      In summary, whether you are using text generated through an AI language model for academic or non-academic purposes, it is important to adhere to principles of attribution and integrity, and to always consult with appropriate authorities or legal experts if you have any doubts or questions.

      Me:

      Is it considered plagiarism outside of academics and commercial use?

      ChatGPT :

      Yes, using someone else's work or ideas without proper attribution or permission is still considered plagiarism even outside of academic or commercial use. Plagiarism is a violation of intellectual property rights and can be a legal issue in some cases.

      For example, if you were to copy someone else's creative work, such as a piece of writing, artwork, or music, and present it as your own without permission or attribution, it would be considered plagiarism and could result in legal action being taken against you.

      In general, it is important to always give credit to the original source of any work or ideas you use, whether in an academic or non-academic setting. This not only helps you avoid plagiarism but also shows respect for the work of others and can help build a stronger culture of collaboration and creativity.

      --

      That all said, I did confirm that although plagiarism is not a criminal or civil offense, plagiarism is illegal if it infringes an author's intellectual property rights, including copyright or trademark.

      Next ask it why it doesn't give attributions for the preexisting test it uses.

    • RE: Need and IIS based hosting option aside from Azure

      Well it looks like EKS and GKE support Windows nodes, so you could deploy it as a container there, but then you're paying for a whole cluster. Or they could rewrite enough to upgrade to the latest .Net and not have to run on Windows.
