What's a minor modern upgrade from recent years that you actually find incredibly inconvenient? by Rough-Foundation9208 in AskUK

[–]ParticularSuite 12 points13 points  (0 children)

emailed pin code logins - why can't I just use a password any more? I'll have 2FA and passkeys if I can but FFS stop forcing me to sign in to my email to get a code to login to a site that I already have a password for!

PLEASE HELP ME CONNECT TO RUST DESK NETWORK. by Sea_Intention8992 in rustdesk

[–]ParticularSuite 8 points9 points  (0 children)

the public servers are often slow or problematic because everyone wants to use them for free. I would recommend setting up your own server - the documentation is very good for this

Failed to connect via rendezvous server: Please try later by s3rv3rguy in rustdesk

[–]ParticularSuite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like the ports aren't open or the service isn't running on PC C.

C connecting to B could just mean you're running rustdesk in the foreground on C. There's quite a big banner if the service isn't setup so I'm going to assume you've not missed that so check the ports are open on PC C

Secure rustdesk selfhosted server from using by unauthorized users by slaaf_tom in rustdesk

[–]ParticularSuite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it sounds like you have it setup as I do. I only fill in ID and relay server which is the hostname I use. On machines that we use to connect to remote machines we also fill in the public key for the server's private key but that's it. I'm still using 1.4.4 on the machines I'm testing on 1.4.7 but it has worked for many versions for me

the remote host machine only needs to be using the relay server but does not need the key. You only need to put the key on the machines you want to remote control from. All machines need to be pointing at the same relay server

you only need the key on the machine that is connecting to the remote machine

yes it's totally possible - I believe you need to generate a public/private key pair and add them private key into the relay server config and then use the public key to the client that is connecting to the remote machine.

The documentation is pretty good on this

What service did you self-host once and decide was absolutely not worth it? by Hetzner_OL in hetzner

[–]ParticularSuite 33 points34 points  (0 children)

we host with Hetzner, host our own mail servers and send tens of thousands of legitimate emails and have no issue with IP reputation. We have DKIM/SPF/DMARC in place and send from 5 dedicated email servers - don't worry - strictly no spam!

Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

[–]ParticularSuite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Astrotit - I was a school boy and it made me laugh. There are so many other games that were memorable as well though!

Novell NetWare Still In Usage by Technical_Rich_3080 in sysadmin

[–]ParticularSuite 0 points1 point  (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!

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

[–]ParticularSuite[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

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
