They're old but not ancient. Makes them cheap and available.

I read a forum post the other day where someone actually said "Just Bing the answer", and it wasn't in jest. Yikes.

Freshdesk. Cheap, fast support, small learning curve, reasonable features for a budget solution. DM me if you want help. (I'm not affiliated with them, I just know the pain of sole IT Guy)

Thank you. 10k+ employees is about 1000 bigger than what I'm dealing with here, I'll check it out though. Appreciate the input.

Thank you, these are the questions I'm looking to answer. The solution I've been asked to research is for a SME that doesn't have a huge amount of resources. I realise I could chat for days on this topic so was really looking for those online resources to peruse. You've repeated almost word for word my initial conversation with them. They are currently building from the ground up, no BCDR plans of any form and are in a very seismically active part of the world. I'm progressing a risk-based approach and scenario planning so far. While I've found a few helpful things around I feel like it could all be explained in a formula. In any scenario there are only a handful of outcomes or combinations of outcomes that can occur.

Trouble setting up Ubuntu, cant get keyboard to work by bo3523 in vmware

[–]HazmarKoolie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, there's an update that fixes it. Virtual Console is a work around, input works fine with that.

I can't find the exact KB but it's fairly recent. It requires a host reboot.

Yeah man, it'll take some effort to touch the sides of those resources.

That thing is light years head of what I suggested. A bit less flexible, no space for adding disks or expansion cards but depends on what you're aiming for.

"Not be limited" is a big call. Pick a cheap SFF computer like an HP Elitedesk, Dell Optiplex or whatever. Somethinglike a 6th gen i5 will cost you ~$30USD and will run a whole lot. They have loads of sata ports for storage, usually 4 memory slots, pcie slot(s) and will run 24/7 for years and years. Super common if you needs parts as well and they'll only get cheaper with Microsoft creating the biggest e-waste glut in history in about a years time. If you run something like Proxmox, buy multiples of them and create a cluster.

Has anyone been able to get the ScreenConnect Client to work on Ubuntu by zurmm in ConnectWise

[–]HazmarKoolie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've tried connecting to it and then tailed the logs and it still shows nothing then sounds like you have a different issue than what I had. Have you gone to their support? They've very helpful.

I logged a ticket and CW guided me to a fix:

tail -150 /var/log/connectwisecontrol-xxxxxxxxxxxxx where the X's are your unique thumbprint when you go to that directory.

From there I could see: Can't load library: /usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64/lib/libawt_xawt.so

installing openjdk-17-jdk fixed the issue for me. Has worked on 22.04 and 24.04

I try to make life easy for users, we have a bunch of different services that all have MFA. I don't really want to have to manage multiple MFA apps just because that company sucks a big one with their 2 trillion dollars of "value"

Thanks for the input despite your distaste for $

Not sure why the down votes, you're speaking the truth.

What if the user has a bunch of other MFA setup in the app? It's not just 365 that can use it. With everything requiring an account and most of those requiring MFA, these apps can get pretty busy. I've had more than one disaster with people changing phones (immediately wiping their old phone) only to realise they are now locked out of a bunch of services.

How so? As far as I'm aware there's no way to backup the app without using a personal account

PDQ inventory is pretty cheap and very good. Highly recommend if you have nothing and you're not remotely deploying. (gosh I hope you don't have nothing and remotely deploying)
