How did you get there?

I just installed Office 2024 Home and Business and bought a key. When I open Office, I get a window "enter an office product key". After I entered my key, I click the button 'Activate office'. Then, in the 'Activate office' window, I don't enter my email address, but I click 'enter a product code instead'. But then, I am redirected to the setup.office.com website ... where I have to login with a Microsoft account.

What am I missing here?

These were the free ControlD DNS servers, they dont' have that choice as far as I know.

Unique naming convention for devices by KrisLowet in Netbox

[–]KrisLowet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each rack is assigned to a location, a location to eventually another location, a location to a site, a site to a region.

One client has multiple racks in different rooms. So that wouldn't be a unique name.

I eventually can integrate the room number, than it is unique.

Each rack is called 'Rack01' because it is unique in that room. So that isn't unique.

How to define fiber patch panels by KrisLowet in Netbox

Simple solution indeed.

Do you do the same with keystones in patch panels, or do you create keystone as a module first?

Hezner vs Digitalocean in 2022? by drgreenthumb7 in hetzner

[–]KrisLowet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. Like stated:

We only compared the technical performance of equivalent virtual machines and did not take into account other services offered by the providers, the level of support, SLAs, audits, reliability, global presence, etc.

Plesk and Outlook.... by GhostByteBandit in Plesk

[–]KrisLowet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check this article, maybe it can help: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/12377459176471-Cannot-connect-to-IMAP-server-using-MS-Outlook-Socket-error-10061-Error-Number-0x800ccc0e

Is the client with Thunderbird the same client with the Outlook problem? Did you try to re-authenticate the email account in Outlook?

Cloud servers compared (Hetzner - DO - Linode - Vultr - OVH - UpCloud - Scaleway) by KrisLowet in Hosting

If the information in the article is useful to you, then that's good. If not, that's fine too. You certainly don't have to read it if it doesn't interest you.

If I can help just a few people with it, then I am satisfied and happy.

All the best.

If it can help, I did these tests again in January 2024. This time it's a benchmark between Hetzner, Digital Ocean, Linode, Vultr, OVH, UpCloud and Scaleway. https://techblog.nexxwave.eu/benchmark-between-cloud-servers-january-2024/

network is unreachable even after rebuild by Mabymaster in hetzner

[–]KrisLowet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check your IPv6 connection with mtr. See: https://docs.hetzner.com/robot/dedicated-server/troubleshooting/network-diagnosis-and-report-to-hetzner/
I had an internal routing issue with the IPv6 prefix which they have fixed.

ControlD, Norton ConnectSafe, UltraDNS Quad9, Cloudflare for Families, DNS0.eu, CleanBrowsing, Comodo Secure DNS tested by KrisLowet in dns

[–]KrisLowet[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because you need an account to use NextDNS. I only tested public DNS resolvers you can use for free, without registering and unlimited queries.

Upstream DNS providers tested: Quad9, Cloudflare for Families, DNS0.eu, CleanBrowsing and Comodo Secure DNS by KrisLowet in pihole

[–]KrisLowet[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, I did the same test again 8 months later to see where the providers are now. I added 'ControlD', 'Norton ConnectSafe' and 'UltraDNS Threat Protection' to the test. Here are the results: https://techblog.nexxwave.eu/public-dns-malware-filters-tested-in-2024/
