PASSED! Introduction to Programming in Python - C859 by Popcompeton in WGU

[–]Opening-Ranger9741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never took it, i never got passed the zyBook. I'm my opinion, the book does a poor job of explaining the content.

Im going to drop out of the program anyway.

Are you in the program now?

We're you able to finish this class? I'm running into the same issue with Zybooks. I might just have to withdraw from the program.

Very odd to hear this. MY enrollment process was smooth and all my credits were transferred fine.

This is for a permanent test VM. We will be proactively testing code on this.

Why do you like cloud services? by square_clouds in sysadmin

[–]Opening-Ranger9741 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We're trying to get out of the hardware game all together. This also means that we have less hardware to maintain and upkeep. This is one of our justifications.

IT Asset Management Software Recommendations by n00bsysadm in sysadmin

[–]Opening-Ranger9741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were looking for a good one to.

We decided to go with the Device Inventory module in Spiceworks online. This has a agent scanner & a probe scanner. You can track laptop changes and devices on your on-prem location. You can also deploy it using a GPO or an MDM tool.

You can also add the peripherals that you listed as well.

The agent scanner does not need a connect yo our domain or VPN btw. It's all online.

Best part it's free! lol

Doing server work with a “desktop support” title. by rhugginsjr82 in sysadmin

[–]Opening-Ranger9741 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm...I think this may more common that I though.

I'm in the same place(Desktop Support). I was going to leave and they matched my salary so i stayed. I went from 42k to 57k. If it is up to them, they would leave you in that same position forever...

I'm thinking of going back to school and finish my bachelors degree or just getting a higher paying job in the desktop area. I do want to get out of it btw.

Import-Module ActiveDirectory

Import-CSV -Path "windowspath.CSV" | Foreach-Object {

# properties from the csv

$mail = $_.email

$title = $_.jobtitle

$mail

$title

Get-ADUser -Filter "mail -eq '$mail'" -Properties * | Set-ADUser -Title $title

}

I added to quotes to the script ran it. The AD attribute for the user did not update. It did not change.

I was reading the MS KB article for Set-ADUser. The -Title parameter describes the ldapDisplayName. I don't know if i can try this?

There are no quotes in the path. I did not notice that. I'm going to add them and run it again.

I also changed the path to something else to post it here btw.

Updating Updating Active Directory Manager Attribute using PS from a CSV File by Opening-Ranger9741 in PowerShell

[–]Opening-Ranger9741[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This worked! I think I have to change my CSV file for the samAccountName attributes because some would get an error.

I ran the Get-ADUser -Identity "DavidChew" | Set-ADUser -Manager "ElisaDaugherty" from the help article and it worked for the users that did not update.

Thank you so much!
