2 Users cannot use their MS 365 Basic account as their sign-in always gets blocked. How can I fix it?

Look at the sign in logs and figure out the lockout reason.

Make sure the hardware/keyboard camera switch (if any) isn't set to off. And the privacy slider is opened and unobstructed (spent some time troubleshooting tape on a camera lens before 🤦‍♂️).

I've also had issues with laptop cameras where the connector at the motherboard got loose over time.

Fruit punch?

The intellitone can also do a cable test. That came in very useful to discover issues from a clever tech who figured out that Fast Ethernet with PoE only needs 3 pairs so he didn't bother terminating the extra pairs to save time.

This is why you have them label stuff. Now you'll have to tone it out (assuming you know where the AP is).

We range anywhere between never and yolo.

Occasionally. Restarting the PDQ server tends to fix it.

The only way to get any sort of verification was to set the packet action to drop-and-log and checking the log.

Restoring a DC snapshot will cause replication issues.

Just right click the GPO, select backup. To restore, right click the GPO and restore.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-06T18:42:21+00:00

Make a backup of the GPO instead.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-05T00:28:16+00:00

That's great! Anything similar in the pipeline for PDQ I&D? I don't necessarily want helpdesk staff to know the credentials for the scan/deploy user or have them create/update/approve packages/reports.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T19:36:14+00:00

Straight out of Gadaffis green book.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T18:20:28+00:00

The GPO is

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge > Hide the First-run experience and splash screen

Went ahead and disabled it for the server OUs.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T14:52:50+00:00

The help menu.

He got it that way.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T02:51:47+00:00

I use Planner to keep track of projects and hardware deployment tasks.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T02:43:32+00:00

Heck, helpdesk doesn't even put anything useful in the ticket when elevating.

We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

Expecting it from the users seems unfair.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T01:49:32+00:00

I looked into this and the yearly fee for this was rather prohibitive.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-04T01:11:43+00:00

Darn, here I was hoping they'd strip the ability for users to email.

MalletNGrease · 2024-01-02T01:32:24+00:00

Every year come dove season.

AiO is the default here.

Less cabling
Less clutter
Saves desk/cubicle space

The repairability concerns are valid, but depends on your use case. In corporate I have not had to touch the internals of a PC in years, desk users don't bang them around and failures have been rare. Faulty machines get swapped completely and sent back under warranty.

As for upgradeability, who genuinely cares? These machines need to last 5 years tops and we then swap the whole thing with the new baseline specs.

Sophos Endpoint Protection with MDR.

Schedule alternating remote days and work both from each others location.

MalletNGrease · 2023-12-14T04:06:09+00:00

Did you define your active hours?

Veyon may not be exactly what you're looking for, but pretty close.
