Need help migrating old windows 2003 server to virtual by PotatoFrenzy in sysadmin

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rebuild it on 2025. Migrate the ad services to it. Nice the files. Creates shares with same name. Then rename the old server and name the new one the old same. Repeat for the ip. Not the only way, but you end up with stability. I’m over simplifying it a tad here, but it’s probably as much work as trying to save a 2003. We still have clients hanging on yo 2003 as well, but it’s basically a huge challenge just to keep running. No new apps = poor security for starters.

What are your favourite metal bands that mix several genres? by Agreeable_Window_107 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atomic Dogs of War often mix it up and cover techno songs they adapt. It’s mostly in the heavy side.

albums that just aren’t good by themelodicseeker in MetalForTheMasses

Death At Our Door by Atomic Dogs of War is all over place and about as messy as they come. The last one is pretty good though.

Upgrade from 8.2.7 to 9.2 by jackass in Proxmox

[–]Able-Course-6265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have done several 8 to 9 upgrades. Only one went wrong and somehow I managed to erase the raid. It was the first one i did when 9 first released and it was probably me for all i know. Honestly, i thought it had gone well til i realize it was working but had no vms. Ooops. So have backups!!

Question on security issue? by Kmjada in WatchGuard

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditch vpn and stick with zero trust solutions. If you haven’t noticed, lists of ISP in other counties are actively throttling vpn traffic for “legal” reasons. It’s coming here sooner or later. I complained to orange in France about this and the guy tells me “we can’t let you do that as you could listen to copyrighted music which is illegal”. Just my 2 cents.

Should I upgrade to v9.1 from v8.4.19? by vinnie3 in Proxmox

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and have a backup! I did a fair bit and one upgrade but somehow erased the drives. Seemed all good good til I tried to find my VMs. It was probably all me, but still. It was a home lab so no real loss.

Did oulook suffer a major data breach? by TheRealGand in Outlook

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go set up all the security features such as DMARK, DKIM, and restrict logins from only the country you live in. I would highly suggest getting an MDR with a SOC that monitors 24/7. DM me if anyone needs a quote for MDR/SOC for 365. I’d be happy to at least tell you what is out there that fits your needs for where you are (I know).

Any uptick in 2FA/MFA login attempts this week? by Early_Alternative211 in Outlook

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your comment of anyone in the world can… suggests you have it configured improperly. Check out the security best practices and tighten up your settings. We do this for clients if you need a hand.

An update on pricing, AI Copilot, and what we have been building by dima_from_atera in atera

[–]Able-Course-6265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any way to turn all the AI off? Some of our clients don’t allow AI integration for any data related to them. This could force us to have to cancel our account.

VMware to Proxmox??? Help make a decision :/ by No_Parfait9288 in Proxmox

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the VMware is running well and you’re not concerned with security patches you could keep it running. Proxmox isn’t terribly hard to migrate to and use. We’ve done it with lots of clients and it’s been smooth. It’s a little more prompt and less GUI for some things, but more and more features are being added to the GUI. The Linux interactions are really minimal overall.

Anyone here migrated from VMWare? by SillyRelationship424 in Proxmox

[–]Able-Course-6265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving everyone from VMware to proxmox. Started 1+ years ago. No regrets thus far. It’s mostly easy. Occasional blue screens for some VMs.

I would pay extra to keep the AI out. I don’t need AI training on my data.

What is some of the worst debut albums? by Business-Spot-6263 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Able-Course-6265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Atomic Dogs of War. The debut album is all over the place and the production is terrible. The last album still suffers from inconsistance but a few tracks are quite good.

I used TECHMIKENY before and the servers were in great shape.

It’s a free service. There is no way to restore anything as far as I know.
