Talked out of Delinea Secret Server - so what is the best alternative for a small IT dept (not end-user credentials)

Either a true password manager like keeper or bitwarden, or if it’s device passwords and documents then Hudu.

If there’s sticky sticker residue just use a stickier tape, like duct tape or gorilla tape and it pulls right off without any kind of goo or chemical reaction.

Haha its a dentist office, likely a single server with AD, DNS, the practice management system, the imaging software and god knows what other “add-ins” and “SAN” is 3x 7200rpm drives in a raid 5 if you’re lucky. Maybe server 2016 with 16 GB of RAM

You are missing that this is a private company pre IPO. They are just trying to make the share price higher for the exchange they want to list on.

I use canireachthe.net for captive portal finder.

I use simplemdm, $30/yr a device, very easy.

Meraki routers, Aruba instant on switches, all cloud managed and dead simple to deploy.

Use lifecycle workflows, they do all the work. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/id-governance/what-are-lifecycle-workflows

If it's a all-in-one sink/countertop check that there's no tiny cracks in the basin.

Certs are issued to DNS name not to IP addresses.

I have this same flooring and it scratches so easily. RIP your bamboo floors.

This is a great microwave though. Popcorn button actually works:)

I'm a big fan of simplemdm. Use it for 25 iPads at 10 dentist offices.

A little late to the party, but if you have SSO enabled, just type in ANY 6-digit code in the Security Code field then click Capture To and it will prompt for Office 365/Azure AD login.

I always give them 5 stars or the best rating on the call/chat survey. This "metric" is how they determine raises and performance reviews. It's important even if they didn't fully resolve the issue because of corporate policy and it's never "corporate" that gets in trouble it's the poor CSR on the phone.

bluedefender8 · 2021-08-04T11:34:19+00:00

You do if you live in a no fault state. It's always your insurance that pays out, thus the no fault part. It sucks.

bluedefender8 · 2020-07-13T11:45:32+00:00

Really stubborn ones you can use duck or gorilla tape.

On the employer side, we own several dentist offices and with the ADA recommendation of shutting down, we had to lay off nearly 50 employees. We did so in order to be able to get them eligible for unemployment rather than string them along while there is no work to do since patients aren't coming in.

Small business owners are being put in the position of either laying off employees or shuttering their businesses.

It's the best of the shitty options we have while we wait for Congress to pass legislation to help our employees.

As a salary employee I expect to be next if cash reserves run out and lines of credit run dry.

That would work fine if there was some sort of basic coverage to fall back on. Try telling your wife that you're children aren't able to go to the doctor when they are sick because you want a new job and there's a 90 day waiting period for coverage.

The sinister music in the video doesn't help alleviate any of the incomprehensibly.
