I wonder if you just shut it off if anything bad happens.
It doesn't really work like that. Since he has only one server and it's not a service to be shutdown, you can't really do that.

@Shuey said in Migrate and/or replace old cert server?:
Is it common for every business/company that has a domain network to have a cert server for issuing/updating all of the AD account certificates?
Maybe I've lost my mind but... what is an "AD Account Certificate"?
You can integrate AD with certificate services so that the workstations use the certs for communication. I've never seen it done.
The only time I have used certificate services is to generate certificates for securing communication between Wireless APs and company owned devices.
@Shuey I don't know your whole environment, but if you are talking about SSL certs in IIS, you get them third party (godaddy, cheapssl.com, etc) so you don't need certificate services for that.
To see what you're currently using, there are a few ways to do that. The easiest is to open the https version of your share point site, and click on the lock in the browser. Then click details and view certificate. If it's third party, it will tell you who issued it. If it was generated by your server, it will say the name of the server there.
For a small business with a few computers and two credit card machines, if you put in a EdgeRouter X, put the LAN on one port, and then then each credit card machine on it's own port and don't route between the two, can you skip all the PCI compliance questions about WEP/WPA2, computer patches, etc since the credit card machines are not on the same network?
PS. I know the EdgeRouter X is software based and not hardware, but it has more ports at a lower price point and I don't think the client would notice the performance difference.
It pretty much has to be off network. We have a number of clients with 20+ servers. Some of them have redundant ISP connections, some don't. We don't want something that is going to send us 20 alerts telling us that 20 servers are down if the internet connection is down. On the other hand, we would like an email telling us that the entire site is down. The simple ping tests that are used for web servers won't work because most of the servers are not internet facing.
I'd rather not do some kind of powershell thing because if the server or ISP goes down, I won't get an alert.
This is for servers inside a firewall. On some of them we just need to know if they have been down for more than a reboot. On others we need to get a notification if a certain service goes down.
I'm looking for a program/service that will alert me if a server or service running on a server is down. Any recommendations?
I have a small school that is looking at renewing the Barracuda content filter for about $500 for the next year. (They already own the appliance.) Are there any other content filters I should consider? They probably filter 50-100 devices.
Since they have a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter, I considered the SquidProxy, but from what I read, it doesn't filter https traffic. I also have to wonder how they can keep to date with the list of blocked sites.
Are you maxing out your 1Gb ports? That's what would push me to 10Gb.
Server is back online now. Bringing the files in one by one and making sure they had the right name seemed to do it.
at "200 character width" I started thinking about the COBOL class I took in college.
Where does the metadata about snaps get stored? I thought the .vmdk files told the machine the geometry of the drive.
The original VM is dead. He was trying to resize a drive or something and copied it down "just in case" and case hit.
I have a friend that exported a VM from ESXi and the VM had a snapshot. He gets a -flat.vmdk file and a -delta.vmdk when he exports, but when he uploads those files to the datastore, it drops the flat and delta and only leaves him with his base disk. Anyone ever run in to this? It seems to me if he uploaded the -delta and renamed it server-000001.vmdk that would work, but I haven't had him test this yet.
Congrats. Do we need a NDA to hear more about what your daily tasks are like?
Just don't upgrade your firmware or you won't be able to use 3rd party batteries.
I've used genuine and 3rd party. I write the date on them when I install them. I seem to get at least 3 years out of which ever ones I buy.
@scottalanmiller said in German Governments Moves to Eliminate the Internal Combustion Engine:
Which metals are those? Did a search, didn't find anything.
From wikipedia:
With the exception of amorphous silicon, most commercially established PV technologies use toxic heavy metals. CIGS often uses a CdS buffer layer, and the semiconductor material of CdTe-technology itself contains the toxic cadmium (Cd). In the case of crystalline silicon modules, the solder material, that joins together the copper strings of the cells, contains about 36 percent of lead (Pb). Moreover, the paste used for screen printing front and back contacts contains traces of Pb and sometimes Cd as well. It is estimated, that about 1,000 metric tonnes of Pb have been used for 100 gigawatts of c-Si solar modules. However, there is no fundamental need for lead in the solder alloy.
Does is strike anyone as odd that no one is concerned about the toxic heavy metals that are in PV cells?
got it working. I did the burflags thing. On the server throwing the 13508, I backed up sysvol, stopped ntfrs and changed the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup\BurFlags to D4 , started ntfrs, and then went to the other two domain controllers.
On them I stopped ntfrs and changed:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup\BurFlags to D2
and started ntfrs.
after a few minutes the logs were clean. I logged in to a workstation and group policy didn't throw any errors.
