This could also work. If your carrier is Verizon, it is usually slightly more painful to do.

It is, plus that means rebuilding the whole eco.. If I am going to do that, I will get a new phone too.

I've been reading around different forums, I am one of several million people very unhappy about this update!

Not necessarily... Root the phone, install a custom OS, and then install the Google Apps for that OS, and you're good. I just finally (after 2 years) rooted my 1st gen Pixel XL.

This path is like rabbit hole, sure you feel great, but you rarely get better phone afterwards. I had Lenovo a6000 and it was amazing for flasing, very easy but you rarely get better results from the one given to you, and back in the day the community was more vibrant about flashing, now you will get literally a rom done by only 1 person.

Pick and choose wisely... A good custom rom allows you to change things and eek a little bit more life out of your phone without utterly destroying your hardware. I rooted a Droid Eris and (ab)used that poor phone for 4 years.

My Pixel is coming up on 3 and I'm just now rooting it. It runs better than it ever has before. I will grant you that Custom ROMs are very much YMMV!

@Dashrender is correct, you need to use a real VLAN for this.

Because this:

but ICMP, DNS, and DHCP are never isolated between lan and SSID, so pinging is not a valid test.

Is not true on a VLAN.

Any model S10 seems so very expensive compared to the Sony Xperia AX2 Ultra I just picked up (yes, the Motorola is finally in the bin where it belongs!) At $250, it's a lot of phone for the money.

@JaredBusch said in Questions on UDP, Guest WiFi, LAN, and Unifi.:

You have the VLAN using the same subnet as the untagged traffic?

Not my VLAN and I haven't had a chance to look at it.

Based on the DHCP info I have seen acquired by the phones, I would have to say the VLAN-100 is on another subnet and has it's own DHCP server. The Mitel 5000 and one other Phone system device (Xarios?) have IPs on the business LAN, the phones do not. I think those two devices have IPs on my LAN because they need internet access.

I'm hopeful I can move forward is if the phones weren't there at all....... I don't think there'll be any toe stepping.

I refuse to use Skyetel because of their bullshit pricing practice.

He's seen the pricing, he's converted already, lol.

I’m not changing my opinion on unpublished pricing just because you like it and they pay you to advertise here.

@JasGot that has been my standard practice on installing 10 (updating after installation). Glad that it's the overall best choice (do I get a star for doing it right all by myself?)

Well, that was easy! I received an e-mail a minute later from my JuiceBox, saying it was offline. JusiceBox is the Class 2 Charging Station for our car.

Great, IOT plugged directly into our vehicles. Talk about upping the anti for security!

Indeed. It'll all work without it. But the app is too cool to resist!

Yeah, that'd be important in the morning. We have a guy that has to stop at the local quick charger for ~10 minutes in the morning. There are ~10 of them within a couple miles of our office.

Are you a MSP or in corporate IT? I became a reseller, so now I'm using TechData.

MSP / VAR

Just celebrated 30 years last fall.

That is a LONG time.

Yea..... It wasn't until about 27. I'm still passionate about IT, but I love vacationing, skiing, fishing, and horse back riding with my kids, that helps.....

Thanks that is nice info

@JasGot

Robocopy

Geeez. I use Robocopy all the time, I can't believe I didn't think of that!

Thanks for the tickler!

If you want to play around with different OSs you should try for example:

Qubes OS (safety OS where everything is run in VMs) TinyCoreLinux (extremely small, low resource desktop OS, ~11 MB) Lubuntu (light weight desktop OS based on LXDE, suitable for older hardware) LinuxFromScratch (if you want to roll your own linux) FreeBSD or OpenBSD (if you want to try some BSD)

That's extremely helpful, first time hearing about this tool.

Thanks for sharing

@JaredBusch said in Remote Hyper-V Manager Woes:

I don't use RDP anyway. I use ScreenConnect or MeshCentral for console access.

I don't either...... once I can get ScreenConnect installed. I haven't even tried to install SC on Hyper-V Server yet, does it install and work?

No, MeshCentral! 😉

Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner. It was MDTC and Windows Firewall. (Which is frustrating, because the firewall is turned off for the domain!)

Good job at troubleshooting. I'm wondering what led you down this path versus something related to Networking, hard drives or software drivers?

Remembered it from several years ago with another SQL based application. Don't know what made me think of it at 1:30am. But I'm ok with it!

@JasGot said in Exchange connectors:

I need some help sorting out the exchange connectors on a server.

We were called in to figure out a spam problem. It's not severe and during our exam, we are trying to check the configuration of Exchange and get mail test tools to be happy.

Right now we are getting: Reverse DNS does not match SMTP Banner from mxtoolbox.

This is a simple MS Exchange setup; One Exchange server on a domain, people connecting with MS outlook from inside the building on the domain and from outside the building using Ms Outlook, and two copiers that can send e-mail.

The issue is all the receive connectors. It's not clear to me which one mxtoolbox is seeing.

They are:
Client Frontend EXCHANGE
Client Proxy EXCHANGE
Default EXCHANGE
Default Frontend EXCHANGE
Outbound Proxy Frontend EXCHANGE
Scan2EMail

I'd like to know what each one represents. ie; I presume Frontend mean Internet facing, but I'm not sure. Also, do internal MS Outlook users connect to a receive or send connector? (or both?)

Thanks.

You should change the ELHO name on all of them so it matches your external URL (Which in turn needs to match your Reverse DNS name).

The Outlook clients connect to the Exchange server and Exchange sends the emails they do not connect to the connectors.

Since it doesn't look like Nextcloud will ever address this method, does anyone have any real world experience and thoughts on Nextcloud's other methods of accessing offsite storage?

Specifically: while using human readable paths and filenames.

This is from Nextcloud's site, and it gives me hope.......

Any storage technology you need Some of the storage technologies supported in Nextcloud include NFS and local storage as well as scalable, multi-bucket capable object storage like S3 and SWIFT compatible and CIFS/Windows Shares. Nextcloud can also seamlessly access files on (s)FTP, SharePoint systems and more.

Thanks!

@scottalanmiller no, since we talked about it the last time, I don't feel like this a limitation any more, or at least not nearly to the degree that I used to. I am at the point where If I think we need a solution that I think of as "cloud", or if I think someone else would think of it as "cloud", then I am going to pursue it anyways. I've earned a lot of leverage and my opinion holds a lot of respect within my company now because I have demonstrated that I try and approach everything from a business perspective. A lot of it is just the trust they have in me. So for me personally, I no longer feel burdened by this, but it has been the company's historical position.

New topic is posted.

@scottalanmiller said in How to change display name:

LOL, we thought that you were really into Go or something.

Thanks for fixing it! I did spend a bunch of time trying to figure out a snappy reason for it. When I kept coming up empty, I thought I would ask 🙂
