Anyone mention web crawlers on here? Indexing servers (like Google) will hit a website over and over again looking for changes to catalog and add to their index.

Try adding a robots.txt to the root (http://www.robotstxt.org/robotstxt.html(

They should not create traffic anything like that.

So how is a Mac involved here? It seems like you are trying to do a Windows to Windows copy, no Mac in the process?

Correct. It seems that a Mac unzipped the files to the windows server. There was a bug at the time that set the file type bit to something that makes windows think it's encrypted. (thus windows shows it as green and the encrypted check box is checked)

All I'm trying to do now is copy the files from a server that is having issues to a new server.

Where are you running the copy operation from? The new server or the server with issues?

I'd suggest trying to run the copy FROM the server with issues.

He can't, logging in causes the system to crash.

I get their emails everyday and have to act on them as part of my job. All their emails are classified at a different level.

What kind of stuff have they sent that was actionable?

Zero days and other CVEs

most of what I have been working on for the last week should have worked...

When dealing with computers, should work does not always equal does work, lol.

@scottalanmiller Must be legacy stuff on the website. When I last worked with the owner, he was mostly doing HIPAA audit and security stuff. With that said, I don't know all the members of his team.

The same would be true of NTG. The addition or removal of one team member could make a big change in the services NTG could offer.

The point is that selling Lenovo is a questionable ethical stance.

To you, possibly others. Not everyone.

You can say that about any ethical violation.

Split DNS is the way to go if you have the .local domain naming. Otherwise having your organization domain as org.domain.com might be better as to not use your main domain.

Encryption on HDMI was a major deal when it released.

We all know you're watching porn. Can't we just accept that and avoid the added complexities?

@Mike-Davis said in Cyber Insurance:

@scottalanmiller I agree. Looking at it like auto insurance where cars can be replaced for a price and medical bills can be paid just doesn't have parallels in IT.

Not at all. It's kind of like getting insurance against doing business badly.

And, at the end of the day, it's just monetary compensation for lost data, which I doubt can really be accurately assessed. If your data is gone, all the insurance in the world won't bring it back, and its value isn't well-replaced by dollars.

Perfect timing...

@Mike-Davis said in switch and NIC teaming in Hyper-v:

Good points. Now that I think about it, in this case it's pointless since they have a 1GB uplink to the main switch. Since all ports go in to one switch and there is only one 1GB uplink nothing is gained in terms or redundancy or bandwidth.

You always gain redundancy you can have 3 links fail.

Thanks.

No provision to run more wires, that's an architect I'd have a few words with/for.

I don't think that's fair. They didn't have network cabling back when these buildings were built.

If you consider a residential house, just as fast as people started running network cables to the backs of TVs, manufactures started building in wifi adapters that make the network cable unneeded. Right now people are putting in conduit between their entertainment center and the back of their wall mounted TV for all the cables. 5 years from now we'll probably have a wireless HDMI cable that will make that obsolete.

We'll agree to disagree on that then.

That said, I do think your wireless option should work.

@Mike-Ralston look at the PBX I have with NTG you can see outbound route there like that

Thanks @JaredBusch

I went on site and ran the wizard and it was a quick process to fix things. The relevant part of the new config looks like:

interfaces { ethernet eth0 { address dhcp description Internet duplex auto firewall { in { name WAN_IN } local { name WAN_LOCAL } } speed auto } ethernet eth1 { description Local duplex auto speed auto } ethernet eth2 { description Local duplex auto speed auto } ethernet eth3 { description Local duplex auto speed auto } ethernet eth4 { description Local duplex auto speed auto } loopback lo { } switch switch0 { address 192.168.1.1/24 description Local switch-port { interface eth1 { } interface eth2 { } interface eth3 { } interface eth4 { } } } } port-forward { auto-firewall enable hairpin-nat enable lan-interface switch0 wan-interface eth0 }

MQ is actually looking at Odoo today.

Can you give me an estimate in number of hours to build a linux box and configure that package?

I don't know anything about the OCR piece. But time to build a box is normally about five minutes for me. The script, maybe ten to fifteen. The real issues will be time to download the ISO for them and questions about their environment. The Linux and cron pieces are essentially zero effort items. All of the factors that might create effort are the parts we don't know about.

Hello, real world calling.

Time to build a box != 5 minutes ever. Time for you to spin up a VM from a template and configure the basics, I would accept.

Even assuming that the latest CentOS 7 release ISO was on his client's infrastructure and ready to attach, it would take more time than that to configure the new VM, boot, install, reboot, update, and configure.

That's why it matters as to the environment. I can build a VM locally, and ship it digitally all ready to go based on ready to go templates. Just need to run the latest updates (two minutes normally) and apply the IP address and hostname. Then time to transfer the file is not in the five minutes, but doesn't take labour time, either.
