anyone? someone here must have played with ilo alerts at some point ...

iDRAC, sure, iLO, not so much.

Should just be plug in the proper information for your email service and a valid account to send as.

Nothing is going to work better than buying or building networking gear and building and maintaining a network(s) of your own. Hands on, in an environment where you are free to break things, test things, try things that most businesses don't need, etc. Change things, do it again but in a different way or with different products.

Build a lab that you can brag about and talk to companies about all of the different things that you do.

@jasgot said in Excel Help:

No Need for a bunch of Nested IF= statements.
VLOOKUP is made for this. Although XLOOKUP is the new VLookup.

I did already mention LOOKUP in a couple of posts above.

But the power of the IFS is really when you just have a few different options and put them directly in the formula. Then you don't need a lookup table at all.

The SWITCH makes it even better as that is the equivalent to a case statement.

=SWITCH(F2, "10.0.19043", "21H1", "10.0.19042", "20H2", "10.0.19041", "2004", "10.0.18363", "1909", "10.0.17763", "1809", "OLD!")

We use Zoho Cliq's guest chat for that.

Hmmmm.... https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/kb/zoho-cliq/cliq-user-guide/cliq-chats/group-chat/articles/

I can't get that link to work...

If you wanted to know more about guest chat, go here:
https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/kb/zoho-cliq/cliq-user-guide/cliq-chats/cliq-chat/articles/what-is-a-guest-chat

Zoho Cliq is slightly confusing though because external users and guest users are completely different things.

External users are Zoho Cliq users belonging to another organization. So external to your organization. Anyone can sign up though. So if you invite an external user that doesn't have Zoho Cliq, he will receive an invitation to sign up.

Guest users are non-Zoho Cliq users (that haven't signed up for a Zoho account). If you invite a guest users, they will not receive an invitation to sign up, they will receive a login link so they can chat with you.

Yeah, we use those features. It's nice.

I'm using this on my office machine now for personal files. It works great!

@stuartjordan this looks neat, I will try it with Linux.

I am looking for 2 or 3 Beta testers who are able to give this a good test and report back on what they find.

You know I will give feedback

@jaredbusch
Glad Assuming the drives could be identified as to what is RAID, could you have removed the redundant set, then progressed with the reset and if it worked, great. If not, then you could have put the redundant set back in and not have lost anything other than the time and knowledge that the drives were indeed encrypted?

One team at the client that I needed to do something for immediately was already using ClickUp.

So the principal there decided to expand that use.

Suggestions were helpful.

This is a close to $1000 printer. How old is it though? Printers can work for years, but after a couple, they are typically more expensive to repair than replace once depreciation and your labor time is added in.

Looks like it was introduced late 2015 or so. But it could have a 5 year warranty, in which case it might still be in warranty.

HP don’t have a warranty past 1 year unless you pay for a care pack. It will be known if there is a warranty or not.

. And if you swing a dead cat, you whack at least three PHP developers.

I have to remember that phrase. Gruesome but funny.

Thanks for the info and views of PHP. It is nice to hear some positives about PHP as I mostly read about the security issues surrounding the multiple versions of PHP.

Like everything, PHP has had some security issues.
But most likely most of what you are reading comes down to stupid people not patching or stupid “developers” do copy pasta of code thy was poorly done in the first place.

I've used DokuWiki in the past for documentation.

Yes, me too. But for this customer I will suggest they get something that is cloud based. And a little more specifically made for the purpose.

I can't find a good cloud based wiki. Either they suck or they are crazy expensive.

That has been my experience also

Confluence is quite good. Free for under 10 users, too.

The only commercial product that I've seen that discusses or seems to leverage this is Rapid7's InsightIDR.

Keep in mind that Greylog is a commercial product and is not open source. It used to be open source, now it is not. They claim to be, but they don't qualify.

Might be something with the ISO image hosted on Vultr.

Definitely not. That's like saying it might be related to the hamburger you had at lunch. There's absolutely no connection.

It's because rebooting the server caused all of the connections to drop and the bad router to partially start over. So it's a problem that's going to come back, you just bought yourself more time.

Fundamentally, your system isn't built for reliable Internet traffic. AT&T is garbage stuff and this is just part of the penalty for being stuck in one of their regions. We have the same problem here in the third world. Vendors don't understand the basics and things like bridge mode can be hard.

@pete-s

It was more, when you would open a shared calendar it might take 5 mins for the whole thing to download… in the meantime you have no idea if there is an appt at a given time.
When I’m online mode there was zero delay

@jaredbusch said in How to best utilize Microsoft 365 File Sharing?:

OD has settings that you can enable to only sync things on demand. They may even be default anymore, been a year+ since I dealt with it.

I believe it is now. It wasn't in my local folder until I manually Sync'd it. Pretty cool feature. Nothing syncs until you tell it to.

@fredtx
Good to hear 🙂

@stuartjordan said in Handy Linux Utilities:

Why we must warn people not to use non encrypted traffic:
Do Not Use Telnet,Ftp or standard http

Here we will do an arp poison man in the middle attack to see another devices traffic on the same network. when we just had hubs this was easier now we have switches we have to use this method:

apt install wireshark (Graphical) apt install nmap apt install etttercap-text-only (there is a graphical version, this is cli only) sudo nmap -sn 192.168.1.0/24 descover hosts IP and mac addresses / pick a host. sudo ettercap -T(txt only) -S(no ssl) -i(interface) wlan0 -M(man in the middle attack) arp:remote /192.168.1.1(router)// //192.168.1.8//(person to attack) sudo wireshark then apply filter ip.addr = 192.168.1.8 obviously cannot see inside encrypted ssl traffic. but we can see plain text packets by applying filter ip.addr == 192.168.1.8 && http save in wireshark as pcap file visit website a-packets.com - generates a report for free. to see telnet as it's clear text use filter = wireshark filter ip.addr = = 192.168.1.8 && telnet

I had a student do this to the student network at my last job. Everybody would complain about slow network in one building but by the time I could go check it, it was fine again. I figured out what he was doing and some switches have stuff built in to combat this (you just have to turn it on).
