I'd say that's typical Microsoft. One step forward, 20 backwards...
They did a great job simplifying licensing in 2012 and bringing the same feature set in both editions, and now this. I have 2x12 core Opterons in my servers, there's no way I'm upgrading to 2016.

OMG... I sweat the people over there are freaking incompetent... the number of people on SW that just "fear" anything virtual, hosted or remote is crazy.

Linux domain controllers and linux desktops joined to it - I didn't have such a good laugh in a while.

But the software doesn't have the ability. We're going round in circles.

But it does, Apple themselves said that it does. It scans the whole device looking for whatever third party non-profits (and the government) tell it to search for. They could not possibly be more up front and clear about that. They aren't hiding this. You're claims don't seem to be that Apple won't do something bad, but that Apple is lying to make itself look bad. Why are you taking a stance that Apple is a good company, but lying? It's a very weird position to take without any reason to do so.

You are saying that the government could force Apple to provide them with data held on my phone. Apple can't do this, they don't have access to the data that this software gets and holds privately on my phone. The scan results are private (until uploaded to iCloud). Apple simply don't have the means to access the scan results.

That's my last post on this, I can't discuss with someone who just calls me weird.

How do you know they don't? Because they said so? Lol. Apple explicitly stated that this software will upload results to iCloud, so there you have it. Conditions that trigger the upload are irrelevant at this point, the fact that it can upload anything is. Scott above explained perfectly that single warrant will force them to fork any data over.

I would consider Thunderbolt DAS enclosure instead of SAN. Less complexity, much faster, and probably much cheaper too.

I've used PIA in the past and it was ok. But if you really want to be safe, then invest in seed box and switch to private trackers that offer SSL exclusively. Just remember not to use VPN on private trackers.

Alternatively, if you're at the point of spending money on downloading movies and shows, consider just subscribing to Netflix, Hulu or some other streaming service. Why would you spend money to do something illegal, when you can do it legally for almost the same price.

Edit: No data caps

Baseball bat in parking garage. That's how we solve these things in Europe. Unfortunately in US, country with 5% of world population and 95% of world's lawyers population, you would get sued for everything you got.

Perhaps we should include data caps, if any.

I'm getting the cash. 10 years of credit monitoring is worthless, same with their insurance. It won't prevent identity or credit card theft. And their reaction time is piss poor, you'd get a notice 1-3 months later of someone opens new account in your name, and by that time crook will probably charge thousands. Credit freeze is the only option and they don't offer that. Discover bank offers credit monitoring for free to anyone: https://csp.discover.com/free-credit-score/index.html

@brianlittlejohn said in Collision Domain - In POS:

On switches you can't have a collision, they are layer 2 devices with queues. Collision domains were a problem back in the day of hubs because 2 devices could send at the same time. Hubs operated on layer 1 and you would split collision domains with a device called a bridge, it would take packets and store and forward them between the collision domains. A switch is just a multiport bridge, each connection on a switch is its own collision domain since the device will store and forward for each segment.

Odds are your issue are a cabling issue, or a bad NIC on the server, or a bad switch/port on switch somewhere.

It also could be a software issue on the server causing the issues.

Right - The reason I was under the impression it's a collision domain issue is there's one Port being used by all of the terminals that connect to the Server, So even if switches that connect the terminal on the front of house act as a bridge, it's still sending all the information back and forth to the terminals on One line..

Maybe I'm not understanding my own thoughts here.

Your problem is that you're learning obsolete information. All these Network+, Security+, etc. are filled with information that was relevant in 80's or earlier. Instead of relaying on that, use your brain. Can POS terminals be sending so much data that they saturate 1Gbit network? Or even 100Mbit? Highly unlikely. So faulty hardware or software is your most likely problem.

Uncomment DNS declaration and fill it with DNS address. See if it starts then.

@garak0410 you missed Picard in that list But yeah, Discovery is a mess. I hope Strange new worlds that's suppose to come out next will be better.

You have ddns update option, but no DNS server defined. So DHCP server doesn't know what server to update and fails.

I think you're trying to work these issues backwards. You have performance problems, you suspect where the problems are, so you're trying to solve them by throwing more hardware at it. You need to step back and really figure out what's going on there. Monitor entire setup for a few days and see if there are obvious bottlenecks, like CPU, RAM or disk IO.

And like Scott said above, it really sounds like you have some bad code there.

I was thinking to eventually add Plex somewhere down the line. Right now both my media pc and work pc are much more powerful than the server.
The server is based on the AM1 platform, I just switched out the terrible 2650 (2x1.45) for a slighlty better 5150 (4x1.60). Should be ok for x264, yet I don't know about x265 and whatever may come.
Building my Kodi library has taken a while do, I'd assume the same process would wait for me with Plex (with foreign language movies not being scrubbed correctly from databases, etc...)

Plex should be able to read the media in your Kodi library if it is stored as standard MP4 / AVI files, etc. You shouldn't have to re-rip your entire library just to switch from one to the other.

Not to mention that MKV's (as you mentioned they will be) are natively supported by Roku meaning no transcoding. That dramatically reduces the hardware requirements of your server.

MKV is just a container, it's what's inside of it that may need transcoding.

What's your protocol set to? TCP or UDP?

My wife had Apple Watch, we returned it after a few days, battery wouldn't last until evening charge. What you're describing is clearly faulty watch, if you have Applecare, just insist on express replacement option, or demand appointment at Apple Store or authorised service center.

If they really want to see pictures of your burns, I'd go to a doctor and get a report, then visit a lawyer, and then let the legal teams handle that. Getting electrocuted is no joke, if you had a pacemaker, this could pose serious health risk.

Use it in safe mode. You don't need to know the password. I've used it countless of times, and I never messed up any of the machines.

Any IPS that would send me such email would promptly receive a phone call to disconnect the service. Data caps are just about the worst thing ISP can do to its customers. I would look for another provider immediately, and have them put no data caps in writing.
Btw, 1TB is nothing, I can blow through that in little over 3 hours, half that if I upload stuff too.
