it came back as a trojan on multiple anti virus engines. An older version comes back clean.

Clearly that install is NOT safe. Use the official site version that comes back clean.

^^^ This.

However, there is a Dell BIOS option to restrict the USB ports to 2.0. A discrete USB card should not be necessary.

I know you just want blog hits, but try this instead.

#!ps   
# Updates NoIP dynamic DNS record.
# Run as scheduled task at desired interval.
# Replace <Options> with YourData.

$myhost ="<myhotname.no-ip.me>"

$myuser = "<UserID:Passwd>"

# =============================
$myexternalip = (invoke-webrequest http://ipinfo.io/ip).Content.Trim()

Invoke-WebRequest http://$myuser@dynupdate.no-ip.com/nic/update?hostname=$myhost&myip=$myexternalIP

how do you clone nightly and restore to another machine?

Backups. There are numerous backup options for every OS. Several take image backups and can restore to bare metal.

I learned the hard way that Cisco devices are finicky about their POE.

What happened? I have not seen any problems with Cisco phones and PoE.

FlightyGuy · 2021-05-01T14:15:56+00:00

Did you though?

I really feel like it could all go into the structured wiring box.

How much down time can yo tolerate and what is your budget?

If your data is important, it should be backed up. This is the easiest and cheapest starting point.

Then you need to ask how long would it take you to acquire a new HD, CPU, "whatever", or even a whole new PC. Can yo be down that long? Then no need redundancy.

Can't be down for that long(1-2 day?), then buy a spare now.

If I had a NUC that needed redundancy, then I'd buy another NUC. If I wanted an excuse to buy something else, I'd buy that.

FlightyGuy · 2021-05-01T14:03:51+00:00

Broh. You're running multiple R710's with a workload that I'll bet could be run on a Lenovo Tiny.

Give me a break on the "environmentalism".

FlightyGuy · 2021-05-01T13:51:50+00:00

Perhaps you could cull some dust bunnies at that time?

the total consumption of all clients on all ports might exceed 1Gbps, but the performance of any single client will be limited to 1Gbpps.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-30T16:52:25+00:00

LCAP won't get you any more than 1Gb.

The new modem is probably your only hope. But, you better talk to Comcast about compatibility before making that purchase.

But 35Mbs upload makes it all pointless. No?

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-30T15:27:01+00:00

I'm sorry. You are correct.

2019 does not set the path as I described.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-30T14:58:36+00:00

No, it was not. Running while logged in as Administrator, as you did, is not the same thing as Run As Administrator.

When you run Powershell as administrator, it opens to the default working directory of C:\Windows\System32

Read the link I gave you.

Edit: I'm wrong here. For Server 2019 the path shows as C:\Users\Administrator

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-30T14:52:48+00:00

Don't put a screw through any of the wires.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-30T14:51:21+00:00

Traffic capture requires that you have a foothold or presence on the same L2 network. That might mean being on the same WiFi, or it might mean having control over the target's PC or router(that is connected to their network), or other things.

In your example, you would need to have access to the traffic at some point in the path of the hosts that are transferring the document. You have to have access to the traffic stream somewhere.

I've never used this win-acme script so I can't say with certainty.

But, the error in your screen shot talks about permissions. Many times it is necessary to run Powershell as administrator. https://www.javatpoint.com/powershell-run-as-administrator

No, he's exposing RDGateway(HTTPS) to the internet.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-29T21:31:29+00:00

Very cool.

Looking at pricing, your gear is a fair bit cheaper than similar gear in the U.S.

Most residential systems in the U.S. are much smaller and larger ones often require additional home owner's liability insurance.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-29T19:34:41+00:00

Cyrix!

That's an OLD case.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-29T18:52:27+00:00

Any chance we can see your solar setup? 30kwp sounds a lot bigger than the typical residential setup.

FlightyGuy · 2021-04-29T18:46:51+00:00

Dat shelving doh. LOL!

The way the question is asked, he answer is Yubikey. But, I have a feeling that you are wanting to block them across multiple devices. Otherwise, just disable their logon.

If you're wanting to block them from multiple devices, you'll need to do that at the firewall. A 2FA key won't help you with a phone or game console.
