      You could also use the Free Veeam Endpoint Backup, in latest version it also has CryptoLocker protection for USB attached external storage devices.

      From what I see you do need Enterprise or Education version for NFS Client. Since Windows 7 it seems.

      https://www.freesoftwareservers.com/index.php/2015/08/25/nfs-client-windows-mounting-of-nfs-exports/

      http://serverfault.com/questions/706094/nfs-mount-on-windows-8-non-enterprise
      Many other links with no real solutions except pay MS more money.

      If any of you can mount an nfs share to their Pro version without 3rd party software please do so; I would like to see it working.

      I spend about 5 minutes a week adding a few domains to a blacklist. Not a big deal. My spam service is just fine, I'm talking about a few emails a week getting through. I would like to get it to 0 though I doubt that is possible. Gmail seems to be the best at spam blockage, wonder what they are doing.

      This email address has existed since the mid 90's(company around since 1984) honestly every single spammer in the world probably has it. [email protected]. The fact that less than 10 spam messages/week get through mean the filters work well I think.

      The big spam shops(NYC mostly as SAM says, if you believe their addresses in the sig) do send out emails with slightly different email address domains, all the time.
      Had one that was always getting through, baddomain.com, I blacklisted it, two weeks later it was bad-domain.com

      @thwr said in 1 Graylog server, 2 XS hosts, 4 Million messages/week:

      Don't have a number at hand, but my pfSense is pretty chatty about rules being hit 😉 I'm using Graylog2 too.

      Can't help with your spamming XS hosts but can't you reduce the log level or select which events are sent? rsyslog can be configured to just sent specific facilities and/or loglevels.

      Sadly XS just does logging a little differently.

      I did put some text pattern matches on a transport rule
      "IT Professional"
      "IT Professionals' list"
      IT Staffing
      "Contracted Program*"
      "Telecom user*"
      "Target Industry:" << this one is very common in the 'buy user lists/dbs for your company'
      "Dear Sir/Madam"
      ^^ that one actually is catching a email from a legit company that sends us invoices/PO, that phrase is actually auto-generated in every email. Annoying.

      Phrases like this are common throughout most of these emails.

      Seems to be working well so far.

      Man am I the only one that doesn't have issues with ADFS? It just works with little to no intervention on our part.

      Yes. It's just awful.

      Why do you have ADFS? Why not just sync?

      This time i really thought i had it.

      But hopefully i have finally fixed it this afternoon.
      Today right as people were leaving, this error happened again.
      After i had increased the dom0 memory allocation. Only this time it didnt last 7 minutes, it lasted over 20. Probably due to the increased memory available for dom0 as that was the only change i made recently.
      SMlog full of SR_BACKEND_FAILUREs, timeouts all that bad stuff previously mentioned.
      So then when it all started working again i look at smlog as it should normally be in my environment.
      Every 30 seconds there is some message:

      '''
      XS001 SM: [16965] sr_scan {'sr_uuid': 'cc37b853-066e-fbcb-f5c2-dcca47fd168b', 'subtask_of': 'DummyRef:|737fa116-27fc-0ad6-c923-335d7d645e68|SR.scan', 'args': [], 'host_ref': 'OpaqueRef:ff71ac2a-851d-36dc-43e4-6ea0708498e9', 'session_ref': 'OpaqueRef:7433c31d-3a94-75fa-316b-c0549ce51389', 'device_config': {'username': 'admin', 'type': 'cifs', 'SRmaster': 'true', 'cifspassword_secret': pw hash removed', 'location': '//10.1.0.10/iso'}, 'command': 'sr_scan', 'sr_ref': 'OpaqueRef:77fe45fb-7f66-b2d0-1aac-72e990bfa378'}
      '''

      I go back, looking at all the archived SMlog.x.gz logs.

      This message has been happening for at least 7 months, every 30 seconds without fail. In fact, i thought it was a normal SMlog message because it has been happening at least since my first day on the job. It is also always the same SR uuid # that shows up; which was the CIFS ISO share SR for Xen that was made right after installation back in 2013(not by me). I would guess these type of errors have been happening since 2013, like clockwork almost.

      About ready to throw my fist through something at this point, and users are unhappy.

      I decided to unplug and forget this SR, and recreate it as NFS ISO share in XS rather than CIFS/SMB
      Have done that now, all i can do is wait a few days to see if storage errors occur again. I can say however, those SMlog messages dont show up every 30 seconds anymore.
      In fact the only messages showing up are Unitrends snapshotting and attaching itself to vdis for backups right now, so at least it is 'back to normal' for now. Though normal is $#@!ed apparently.

      It also sheds light as to why previous guy would have reduced memory allocation to dom0, as this seems to reduce the time of these timeouts, while adding more increases the time of them(allegedly, i will know by Monday). If this is the actual fix, it means i will have solved a multiyear problem that 3 other people in my position were unable to solve. I really hope this is it.

      And, does anybody actually know what that 'error' message in SMlog means? It doesnt have the word error, doesnt say anything bad, just lists some uuids.

      Hopefully this horse is way past dead, and I can go clean my shillelagh.

      @scottalanmiller said in iscsi target Path configuration:

      Last system I checked LVM and mapper were equal symlinks pointing to the same thing. I checked it because I was documenting on CentOS.

      Still interesting. Device mapper is just that, a mapper pointing to LVM (and LUKS) devices for example. So your mapper and LVM are both pointing to something "physical" like md devices or sd*?

      Both pointing to the dm device, which is another layer of mapping.

      @wirestyle22 said in Today i decommissioned an Athlon Xp 2200+ machine I may have built:

      @IRJ From what I've seen of the benchmarks, Intel is killing it. There is a market for AMD with budget gaming builds etc though.

      I think the Athlon XP processor was the last time AMD actually beat Intel for a brief period of time when you consider overall value.

      Oh no. The first several generations of Opterons were the real winners. The XP wasn't even in the same class. it was the Opteron that put AMD in the lead for several years. AMD owned the decade of 2000.

      Athlon XP Processors weren't top of the line, but they offered more VALUE for typical PCs.

      And the Opteron offered even more comparative value. Nothing came close.

      @momurda

      From my experience, you are correct about the fake raid terminology.

      Fake RAID = is the raid you do on the chip-set level without any dedicated card doing the works, but it fools the operating system that gets installed on-top of it, and does not require any special config from the OS side. I think you can do fake raid for RAID 1 for important workstations like the HR computers for example.

      Software raid = is like mdadm in Linux or Windows 10 storage spaces, it relies on the OS side for everything.

      Read RAID or Hardware RAID is getting a good RAID card.

      @Dashrender said in Was looking at flights for Mangocon, then this happened...:

      So, did they create a loopback on the unmanaged switch? I had a client do that once, brought down the whole network for about an hour until I found it.

      Definitely considered myself lucky finding it inside an hour.

      I would think that's the case as well.
