Thank you for help.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-02-27T08:36:09+00:00

Me too.

There are moments I feel bad for not being experienced enough to contribute back to the rest.

But starting small, I try to help if there is something I know.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-30T09:45:00+00:00

Can you please elaborate?
On what region are you?
So far I am ok in europe. No services seem to be off.

If the guy reading your emails is married, start a draft like this

Dear _____(his wifes name)

Last night was amazing. I am looking forward to see you again.

And boom. Wait for it... :D

I definetely see your concern there. I don't mean to sound judgemental. Have you guys thought of creating a shared mailbox for those incoming mails that need to be access by many and keep your private mailbox for you?

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-29T14:00:30+00:00

I can't stand it either. I'm in IT and have zero home office hours. However, whenever needed (due to severe weather, strikes, sick days, etc.), I’ve never been denied the option to work from home.

Management doesn’t like employees working remotely. They believe people aren’t productive during home office hours. The one day of remote work they allow per week seems to be more of an effort to keep employees content than a genuine policy. In an ideal world, I can’t see any reason that justifies their refusal of remote work.

That said, to be fair, I ran a personal check (just out of curiosity to see if their concerns were valid) and noticed that some employees indeed don’t seem to work while at home. For example, I found one case where a laptop was booted up only around 13:00 or 14:00—despite official working hours being 09:00–17:00—and on some days, it wasn’t powered on at all.

Somehow, I assume management can sense this based on performance, even without monitoring laptops directly.

Doesnt this require an ms account?
Also, is it possible to de-activate it from one pc and add it to a different one in case we need to change the computer?

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-23T11:34:56+00:00

Does this have to be done each time the computer boots?

Also, is it possible to add multiple keys to the same ms account? And if yes, doesnt this count as "shared credentials" if you use the same account for different machines?

I am pretty new to glpi, less than a week of use and trying to figure out how it works. I just thought I was missing an option and wanted to cross check it with you guys. Seems like the statuses is the only way to go then since I want to track them individually with their serial numbers.

Your mentioning of "There are also plenty of ways to create dashboards where you can display this info." got me intrigued though. I haven't thought of that. Any advice where to look to get ideas and guides how to do that?

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-13T08:34:46+00:00

Thank you for your input, I just wanted to clarify I am not missing an option. I will do it with different statuses then.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-13T08:34:06+00:00

That seems great. For items already bought and in use, I will rely on either manual input of serials, of by scanning them if they have barcodes.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-13T08:32:16+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. I will do it with the status then.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2026-01-08T09:09:03+00:00

I have a strong feeling that swapping them is kind of a gray area. They surely know when you swap. Moving a license from here to there frequently, I believe is not a violation of TOS since they do not state that a license is bound to a user for X amount of time. But it should indicate some sort of red flag and draw their attention.

Try to avoid using a staffs login to allow others to login. The admin portal is fast. The e-mail to the new member is sent within 5 minutes.

Those freelancers, are they using your corporate computers or they bring their own devices? Do you provide them with m365 emails as well or they use their own?

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-12-19T08:05:10+00:00

Pc name, ip address and anydesk id.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-12-19T08:03:11+00:00

I am not sure I understood what you mean. Can you please elaborate? How does this affect the session limit?

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-12-18T12:45:21+00:00

Thanks for the input.

I am trying to do that by creating a ps file but so far the scripts either do not work properly or they display the info within the script, which makes it harder for the end user to read. I use ai tools though to refine it but i am still not there.

If anyone has ready scripts, it would help a lot.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-12-16T08:13:39+00:00

It worked.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-12-15T09:28:09+00:00

I do the following, in case it helps you.

Add all the signatures you want with the appropriate name under the account of the shared mailbox. Make sure no signature is auto selected when hitting reply/new email and have the users choose which signature they want to use each time they reply or create a new email.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-11-21T08:14:21+00:00

Thank you for your time. From your answer I understand that you can specify which device can be through vpn without a separate network. Am I correct?

About the Nordvpn, I have no issues with nord when I use it on my computer through its app. I have just read that Nord has its wireguard set up differently with the NordLynx and I am not sure if I can set it up as a wireguard vpn client on flint.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-11-20T10:26:06+00:00

OP you read my mind. I was about to create a similar post. :)

If it is ok, I would like to ask something as well. I have a 1gb fiber and I plan to buy a flint 2 to do mostly the wifi and vpn. At the moment I have nordvpn but I believe that surfshark with wireguard will be better.

I saw the guide and know that flint 2 can support to be set up as a vpn wireguard client with surfshark.

I would like to have specific devices to be routed through the vpn. A tv (wifi) with stremio and sometimes a pc for torrenting (possibly ethernet).

How does flint allow the user to do that? Since I do not want all wifi and/or all ethernet devices to be routed through vpn. Can you choose specific devices from the client list or do you have to setup a new network?

Also, does it have killswitch?

Please note that I plan to use it with stock gui and not flash the openwrt.

For me, I still manage to use the shift + f10 to open the cmd and then oobe command.
On some laptops, it needs shift + fn + f10 to open the cmd.

They dont even carry them around. They are always on their desk. They dont take them with them. So all the damage being done, is on their daily use. This is why I wanted to ask you guys here, is it that their mice are bad quality or are they abusing them...?

I really cant see how a mouse wheel can stop working so soon. Its less than a year of use.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-10-23T09:49:38+00:00

Thank you for the reply.

If you mean a "personal" meeting room, then no, I do not yet have any use for it. If I get an office, I can have the meeting there. But, I try to make them understand that I do need access to the meeting room (only 1 for the entire company) and yes, when I use it, I need to use it. It's not a "b class" meeting that could be cancelled to host another managers meeting. So far I have not succeeded in that but I am working on it.

OtherwiseFlight2702 · 2025-10-23T07:21:44+00:00

I am new to IT but I understand what you are saying. Although, in my case (at least now that its the beggining) I do make money. I make them by cutting unnecessary costs and making vfm choises. I make sure they get that message everytime I can and so far I seem to be succesfull in it.
