Most PCI complaint systems anymore are just encrypted readers, and SSL connection to the remote processor.

RE: Migrate and/or replace old cert server?
We have our own CA.. Migration is pretty simple. Microsoft tells you exactly how to do it..

RE: iPhone and Text Messaging - Texts Not In Same Conversation
if you set iMessage to use the email, and phone on both it should all show up in the same one. If not try unchecking them an re-registering it.

RE: Modern Open Source Replacement for SSLExplorer
@Ambarishrh said in Modern Open Source Replacement for SSLExplorer:
Looks like Adito is an open-source, browser-based SSL VPN solution which is actually the open-source clone of SSL-Explorer. http://lars.werner.no/?page_id=153 and a how-to guide on https://www.howtoforge.com/installing-adito-openvpn-als-on-centos
*Not tested, just found it on search
Hasn't been updated since 2013.. probally not even a fork.. just the same code from SSL-Explorer

Server 2012 R2 is still an actively sold SKU through Volume Licensing channels.
Why would you buy that? It should be the same or nearly the same as 2016 (now for sale) and with VL you get access to old media and keys for downgrade rights. Buying an old version today seems unwise.
For us it's over a $10k difference between 2012 R2 Datacenter and 2016 Datacenter per host. cores addup quickly.
There's also functionality difference. But in a company like you're the fact that you don't have SA just floors me!
With Microsofts update Cycle SA and the costs of stuff under EA is not worth it.

User to IT ratio
What does yours look like? we have a 4,000:1 ratio between all users and IT staff (not counting Software Developers). It would be something like 1,500:1 if you counted all our development team.

RE: Burned by Eschewing Best Practices
Wow He even bought a new VNXe3200 Flash? VNXe is stupid with flash and has lots of yearly licensing or you can't keep using it. Unity devices are the way to go for midrange. but VNXe sucks, and is cheaper initial costs so a lot of SMBs get it even though over time it costs more.

They were still building, but there were live systems already on site as well.
If you're doing any construction on a datacenter you do not run live systems.. doesn't matter what it is. That's a very bad sign for that Datacenter.

RE: Microsoft Licensing... Old Agreements...
@scottalanmiller said in Microsoft Licensing... Old Agreements...:
As Jared said, SA gives you special upgrade and support rights, it is not the licensing for the OS itself. I know of no MS OS license that "expires", it just stops being available for updates.
Server 2017.. just wait..

RE: Devices not reaching the DHCP server... bad switch gateway to blame?
If you have two DCs I'm not sure why you wouldn't setup DHCP failover it's a 5min setup. You already have DNS on both so why not protect from issues?
All of ours are loadbalanced/failover

WINS eh? I seriously doubt it.
You have apps that are still relying on NetBIOS for something? Can't solve this with DNS?
It's a copier that is trying to access by computer name. I guess a simple solutions would just be to change the copier to use IPs instead.
The copier is trying to use NetBIOS instead of DNS? Are you positive? That's so incredibly unlikely, I've never heard of that scenario before.
The copier was set to use \\computername\scan as a location to send files for the "scan to PC" function. It wasn't resolving properly after I installed the ERL.
While that is NetBIOS notation, it's also what Windows uses when going to DNS. So that doesn't itself give you any reason to suspect NetBIOS. Check DNS first.
or you can try \\computername.domain.tld\ but, when using just the hosts you need either DNS search setup to append the domain name (likely if you add a domain name to the TCP/IP settings in the copier it will do this) or you need a computer acting as the WINs master browser but that's depreciated.

Pfsense & Edge Router IPSEC VPN
Has anyone got an edge router lite connected into a site to site connection with a pfsense ipsec vpn (ikev1). I'm helping a friend setup some of his stuff and I've got them exchanging packets no errors on pfsense site sometimes it even shows the tunnel is connected. the edge router has no errors either but the tunnel shows down all the time. Any idea?

What kind of patches do you want to manage in this way?
General third party software like Adobe, flash, java etc.
you can control Adobe reader and java with Chocolately. Flash is dead, bury it for reals though, upgrade to Windows 10 and it manages Flash inside IE.
Can you even run Flash inside Chrome anymore? I don't think you can.
Flash definitely comes with Chrome. It's built in.
I thought they announced that flash support is being depreciated, sometime soon, but I don't remember the source.
by 2017 it will be disabled by default, but it still baked in and can be enabled.

Is there software that could tell me what devices are connected on which port on the switch?
Yes. There are plenty. Not always accurate depending on your switch topology

RE: analog video stream
On the Cheaper end you have these
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013316TWU/
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0133173IY
The first one is what I use at home with CAT6. Just add power I've done many system installs of before it's really the best system out there for HDMI. Though HD-SDI or 3G SDI is really the best bet for true IMAG distribution.

Am I understanding that the use case of this is to act like a surveillance system for the church? But without the recording aspect?
If so wouldn't browser-capable IP camera's be enough for this setup?
More like an overflow room, nursery feed etc.

I would stay away from IP cameras. Use a real camera with a real mic, or its going to sound like garbled mush. It shard enough to get good sounding sanctuaries let alone using a junk camera/ mic to record with.
Or just put the microphone on the stage and feed that in. An IP mic would work just as well.
On stage would be really hard to do because you can't get the full range of everything, and if you directly feed in the aux from the mixer you will pick up every pop and hum and off tone person.
Yup you need a sub-mix (digital boards can do this as a matrix, Send etc, analog would have to use an aux mix) but you need an audience mic or two to mix in with it... but they must be delayed based on placement from the speakers
