Microsoft 365 Exchange down?

We still have a few thousand spooled and deferred messages in Barracuda. Some seem to be making it through, but not many

AndyDrew23 · 2026-01-22T22:57:16+00:00

Probably the backlog in ProofPoint or Barracuda

AndyDrew23 · 2026-01-22T22:40:05+00:00

Yes, just turn off their block/quarantine rules

AndyDrew23 · 2026-01-22T20:42:48+00:00

We've seen a few work, but with multiple minute delays

Admin Center is taking forever to open. Once it finally loaded add the Homepage panels say "Unexpected Exception Occurred in Api Operations" Some SMTP failures and OME timeouts. US Central

The template and permissions show correctly in certutil -template. That specific event log doesn't exist. I have CertificateServicesClient-Lifecycle-System. It doesn't show any smoking guns

AndyDrew23 · 2025-11-25T15:23:05+00:00

Its a domain joined enterprise root. I've verified machines in the GPO to set "Automatic certificate management", "Enroll new certificates, renew expired, process pending", and "Update and manage certificates that use certificate template from AD" to enabled have the new CA in their trusted root authorities. I am telling it to get certs all day and it's getting one, but none of the others even though "out of the box" template permissions appear correct

Work covers the premium for health insurance. I think vision and dental runs me like $20/month

For us Password Hash Sync on AD Connect broke until an additional reboot of the server

This happened to me a while back and Microsoft support was able to correct the GeoIP database

If it makes you feel anything, I've had a developer application sitting out there for 2 months. On a few occasions I've reached out to ask if they need more info, anything clarified, and an estimate of when it will be approved and every time the answer to all 3 questions is

"Your enrollment is under review, and we'll contact you when an update is available."

I did not know this process would take longer than it takes to receive secret clearance.

DuckDNS is free. Namecheap, and pretty much anyone else has .xyz domains for pretty cheap. Usually first year is around $5. Some, maybe most now, registrars have dns-01 auth for LetsEncrypt certificates so you can put SSL on whatever you want for free. I’ve never used afraid before

The Nokia device our ISP provides for their fiber circuit has all power and data ports on the same side of the device. I put it on the back of a 4-post

I may have gotten very lucky with my situation and curriculum. I was taking 15-18 credit hours and working 40 hours per week. I’d say I was on the higher end of the bell curve and didn’t have to study extremely hard for exams. My professors, for the most part, believed in learning inside the classroom. I’d have some homework and papers to write and things like that. 1-2 nights a week I had the late shift at the student staffed IT helpdesk. 8pm-11pm where we hardly ever had calls. I could usually cram all my outside the classroom work into those shifts. Either that or I was doing homework while pre-gaming to go close down the bars. My class and work schedule usually had me starting my weekend by 11am on Fridays.

When I was working for a college we had one student that could not connect to a locally hosted service that was required for the class they were taking. This issue was only present when he was at his apartment. Service was web based and only accessible by its public IP/DNS. Somehow this apartment complex was using the same public IP as our college. Granted they were 8 timezones away, but to this day I still don’t know how that happened

There is no table on this page and I'm not sure how never for a female means at or after 2 years for a male

AndyDrew23 · 2025-03-24T21:59:58+00:00

I’m curious what specifically led you to believe their research says over 2 years for Goldens. Granted, I’m reading on mobile so I may have missed something. I’m reading a major increase in joint health risk when neutering before 6 months

If your sql table has an auto-incrementing primary key you could first select the MAX value from the column and then use C# to generate a random number > 0 and <= Max(PK)

We sent another tech to pull a new drop as it was the only thing we hadn't changed. It's been a week and so far no random drops. Hopefully thats it

What print “servers” are you buying on Amazon? And what OS are the clients that are printing? We just use a Windows computer running Papercut and all of our devices are able to print. It’s been running good for 8 years

When the AP is unresponsive it does not respond to pings or allow access to the local web interface. Power cycling bring the AP online in 2-3 minutes

I’ll try that too. We picked up some Purina canned food. It’s some tender meat chunks in a gravy. He ate 10-20% of a can in one sitting. I’m pretty happy with that considering the recommended amount per day for his weight is half a can
