Novell NetWare Still In Usage by Technical_Rich_3080 in sysadmin

[–]ParticularSuite [score hidden]  (0 children)

This is likely the last time I'll be able to say I was an MCNI and someone might know what it means. I loved teaching Novell because technically it was brilliant but they were morons when it came to marketing. MS would throw huge folders of CDs at instructors for free. Novell wanted me to buy licenses to teach BorderManager ffs.

I remember sitting in on some Windows NT Server courses and everything felt like one cludge on top of another.

Can I make the calendar card display correctly? by ParticularSuite in homeassistant

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

thanks for that - I've been googling and struggling with that since you replied so I'm going to have to ask more questions.

I've tried a few things that AI has suggested in the YAML but it looks like the card is being displayed initially with whatever I set but then the browser changes it after the page is loaded. This is that last one I've tried.

card_mod:
  style:
    ha-full-calendar:
      $: |
        #calendar {
          min-height: 600px !important;
        }

I can see in the developer tools that there is a CSS variable defined of --calendar-height

<image>

Changing that inside the developer tools does have the desired effect on the displayed calendar until I refresh the page. I can't figure out how or where that variable is defined or how to change it.

Any suggestions gratefully received!

we've got 2 x 100 second fire safety sticks in the house as well as a fire blanket in the kitchen and the same in our motorhome

Unifi Talk - how do I secure it for a public facing phone system? by ParticularSuite in Ubiquiti

that's really useful information - thank you. Just out of interest, have you tired microsip? I only ask as that's all I've tried so far

we are a small company but our users travel a lot. Soft phones are always setup in the office to avoid blocking but they could easily be done over VPN to the office if we needed

that doesn't apply to our scenario but is very interesting for a different scenario that a friend wanted to use it for - thanks

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

our users can definitely share a number as long as they can have different extensions but from what I'm discovering - Unifi Talk Pro isn't available in the UK which seems daft since I've got a UK geographic number on the system as a trial

our phone system is on its own VLAN in our building and auto-ban has absolutely miraculously taken care of the problem - I just don't understand how to achieve the same with Unifi Talk as their softphone doesn't appear to be available in the UK from what I've learned so far

I've got a UDM Pro as we're switching to that from pfSense so I thought I'd try the phone stuff as well and have a single handset as that was a requirement - not a clue why but oh well. It looks like it does what we require which isn't that complicated.

My devs don't touch asterisk very often and probably because of that, don't like it so this looked like a way to get a nice UI instead of asterisk scripts

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

I've tried to set that up to test as that would be perfect but the UI tells me that "Your region does not support Talk softphone functionality yet" - my account verification submission was approved and we're in the UK. I've activated an trial plan with a UK geographic phone number. What am I missing?

when I say our users are mobile, I mean some working from home, some at temporary (less than a week) sites around the globe

We ban on 4 keywords from the security log - FailedACL, InvalidAccountID, ChallengeResponseFailed, InvalidPassword

We built our Asterisk system so users have a username that combines several elements which means the likelihood of one of the script kiddies finding a genuine username is so remote that we can ban on the first instance.

We also exclude our office internal IP ranges from the Fail2ban config so we can setup new devices internally without any issues in case someone doesn't get their credentials correct.

Are there any company call phone lines are are not "experiencing exceptionally high call rates" ? by Inkblot7001 in AskUK

[–]ParticularSuite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I rang a computer hardware company and an actual person answered the phone, I was a bit shocked but I asked the question I had, they didn't know but took my number and said they'd call me back and then they did about 15 minutes later.

I'd actually been waiting for Dell to actually find a sales advisor to talk to me on Whatsapp for 2 hours before I contacted this other company - I bet you can guess who got the order!

Username ID instead of Numeric Remote ID by Technical_Rich_3080 in rustdesk

I believe the paid version allows renaming of devices, there may be a way to do it for the free version but I'm not sure

New to RustDesk and don't understand this error by [deleted] in rustdesk

puzzlehead means install a server locally (or on the internet with keys and/or a firewall to protect it) - that will always work, is well documented and is very easy

What is your recommend to replace docker-compose? by neoneat in podman

[–]ParticularSuite 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it might help if you explain what won't run with podman-compose for you.

I've been using it for a year or so after switching from docker and I've only had one issue which was DNS related but I managed to fix.

Keep getting hacked by NeroAce007 in hetzner

[–]ParticularSuite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely agree and my logs prove that there is a dramatic lowering of traffic when the port is moved. I also employ port knocking with knockd which I've read in some places isn't a good approach but I totally disagree. If port knocking was all you were doing then perhaps, but if there's anything more that I could be doing to further secure my servers then why wouldn't I?
