    • RE: Alternatives to OpenVPN for FreePBX on cell phone...

      Yeah, unfortunately we're seeing at LEAST a 50% chance of being locked out during network connection change or IP address renewal.

    • RE: Alternatives to OpenVPN for FreePBX on cell phone...

      From Sangoma a year ago. Still no progress made on this it seems...

      The problem is after your phone registers is slamming the server with packets before the firewall is picked up it was registered as their is a delay so after 10 packets which happen really fast for some reason on your client it gets blacklisted.
      To solve this we need to move the checking for registration to watch the AMI so we see it real-time instead of checking every 15 seconds like we do now as your client is slamming the server with packets before we see it registered.

    • RE: PowerShell - FTP Upload Script No Longer Working

      I assumed this was somehow related to how auth basic allows you to formulate your login as :
      user:[email protected]
      Therefore, the @ sign is being misinterpreted when it's being provided in a username.

      With that in mind I went searching the interwebs and came across THIS confirming my suspicions.

      Can you try replacing your @ sign with the + sign and let us know if it works? i.e.
      wrx7m+gmail.com

    • RE: Get active calls overtime

      I can't think of a way aside from cron every X seconds. I'd dump it into a csv file with just the timestamp and the number of calls. E.g.

      #!/bin/sh
      if [ ! -f /var/log/activecalls.csv ]; then 
         echo "Timestamp,Calls" > /var/log/activecalls.csv
      fi
      DateTime=`date "+%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S"`
      echo -ne "\n$DateTime,"  >> /var/log/activecalls.csv
      asterisk -x 'core show channels' | grep 'active calls' | cut -d " " -f1
      

      Which SHOULD create a nice csv for you...

    • RE: Deploying Polycom Phones Properly

      Not that my opinion matters much considering the scale of what @scottalanmiller and @JaredBusch deploy, but we've had good luck with the GXP-2170 Grandstream phones and FreePBX.

    • RE: PowerShell Determine if Running 32 bit or 64 bit OS

      If you want a slightly different result :

      (Get-CimInstance -ClassName win32_operatingsystem).OSArchitecture
      

      Results in :

      64-bit
      

      or

      32-bit

    • RE: USG to EdgeRouter VPN

      In my experience, the two devices use different defaults for S2S connections (DH group, encryption).
      Thankfully, this is now somewhat selectable on the USG but not on the Edgemax.
      I'd setup the Edgemax site using the gui first (for simplicity), check the DH group and IKE settings then duplicate these on the USG.

    • RE: Trying my luck in Toronto, Ontario

      @NashBrydges said in Trying my luck in Toronto, Ontario:

      Welcome to Canada eh!

      Here's your first tip...pronounce it like "Trono" instead of "Toronto" and you'll fit right in 😉

      Omg, thank you @NashBrydges. I'm originally from the GTA (greater Toronto Area) before finally ending up in Alberta. Everyone here pronounces the second T (Tor-on-to) and it drives me nuts 🙂

    • RE: Trying my luck in Toronto, Ontario

      @Emad-R said in Trying my luck in Toronto, Ontario:

      Toronto

      Regarding your move, bear in mind that Toronto is a metropolitan meaning that there really isn't a "City" of Toronto per se but an amalgamation of cities such as Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough, Vaughan, Weston, etc.

      About the only thing really "Toronto" is the downtown area which is a) VERY expensive to live in b) one of the major hearts of industry in Canada but not necessarily a place in which a developer will work.

      You're more likely to find your sort of work in Waterloo (design / engineering / programming center of Canada), Mississauga, or Etobicoke.

      If you need any suggestions on places to live, commute times, public transit, places to avoid, etc. let me know and I'll do my best to assist.

      Cheers,
      M

    • RE: Wget - Download a Web Dashboard For Local Viewing?

      I didn't realize that PhantomJS is a "dead project" as of 2018 (though still works). It appears that it -- and the Gecko version SlimmerJS -- both became deprecated when Firefox and Chrome started shipping their "headless browsers" which accomplish the same tasks..

      While I know you won't be using it for your current project, it may come in handy for yourself or others in the future.

    • RE: Disabling Microsoft Edge?

      @G-I-Jones : That's what we do. Provide a default (sane) taskbar template and deploy to users. They can change it themselves afterwards if they like.

      Usually :
      File explorer
      Chrome
      Word
      Excel
      Outlook
      LOB app
      Remove task view
      Remove people
      Remove search/cortana

      Need a sample XML to simplify your life?

    • Can anyone provide simple Meshcentral behind NGINX proxy setup instructions?

      Does anyone have straightforward documentation on installing Meshcentral behind an NGINX reverse proxy?
      I note that there's mention of it in their blog and a video to watch but would prefer a straight :
      npm install this
      edit config.json with these changes for a reverse proxy
      See this working proxy config for NGINX

      It's not that I can't figure it out, but I have enough things that I'm messing around with right now that I don't want to invest a whole bunch of time diagnosing why MC and NGINX aren't playing together if possible 🙂

      Thanks,
      M

    • RE: Can anyone provide simple Meshcentral behind NGINX proxy setup instructions?

      @scottalanmiller : Remotely (i.e. another VM within the stack).
      Running one NGINX proxy that forwards requests to various services / VMs using LE certs.

      The NGINX config should be relatively simple, it's the info in the MC config.json that I'm uncertain about.

      With that said, I just noticed that the pdf documentation contains NGINX proxy info in it now :
      http://info.meshcentral.com/downloads/MeshCentral2/MeshCentral2UserGuide.pdf

      Guess I have work to do 🙂

      Happy Holidays!

    • RE: Outbound Email group terminology

      @jt1001001 : That's definitely not correct.

      If the user is using Outlook on PC (not Mac), it'll automatically set the FROM: address to that of the shared mailbox when replying to email.
      When setting these mailboxes up in Exchange, ensure that member permissions are : "Read and manage" and "Send". "Send on behalf of" is not required in this scenario.

      Powershell is not needed to setup a shared mailbox nor permission delegation.
