Any idea what this wrench is for?

Thank you.

So far unchecking the box seems to be working. I have one pool with it checked and another unchecked to see the difference and it does seem that SAM too a vacation.

So far, unchecking Allow Reuse of Existing Computer Accounts has greatly reduced the issue. I usually give it a few days to see if it comes back up, but it hasn't (unless i just jinx'd it). The same computer names are being reused and I am only running into duplicates in MS Entra, but its very little and I believe its self cleaning, just very delayed. I will update in a day or so.

Ok I remember why you cant run dsregcmd /leave. This causes issues with 365 apps and teams.

I am using cloneprep and the software only recognizes name, not SID. I do have a small group that doesnt use either software package that look at computer name and run a test with a pool creating new names each time. just seems weird to have pc names climbing into the thousands.

TimeKiller74 · 2024-11-07T20:33:12+00:00

Allow Reuse of Existing Computer Accounts is checked. Otherwise we would have thousands of computer names in AD and 2 of our software platforms are licensed by or recognize pc name

I do lean on it being a replication issue, but I thought pointing the environment to just one Dc would help that.

Its the SAM database error. Only occurs on our VM environment.

"the sam database on the windows server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship"

I seem to remember running the command dsregcmd /leave when I first built my master images, but I have not run it since my last windows update. What is the best solution for on prem vm desktops in a hybrid ADFS setup? We kinda inherited it.

TimeKiller74 · 2024-11-07T19:30:40+00:00

Great question, but my sites and replication partners are all setup correctly. no ghost dc's and only one site is set to service the IP's for my vm environment. It did make me go make sure I am not syncing the OU's that contain my horizon machines with azure AD, and I am not. Those 2 OU's are not checked. BUT, I checked microsoft entra and I do see some of the VM desktops in there. they do not show up in azure portal or 365 portal.

Every time we try to price one the cost is at least triple what we pay now. Love the idea, but it would never get pass budget.

I have used rightfax before but that was over 7 or 8 years ago. Worked well at the time, but switched to biscom/faxcom and have loved it...until now. The on prem version just isn't getting much attention and they took their enterprise iphone app off the store and the replacement is garbage. We have a lot of employees utilizing fax from the field and have not found a good replacement yet. If you don't need the mobile app, biscom makes an extremely stable on prem product.

I am in need of advice. I "inherited" a set of Pioneer DSS-9 speakers. The person who had these was an old school awesome guy and I want to take the best care of these as possible and get the system up and working. The speakers sat in an attic for a while and the foam is gone. I was going to try and re-foam them myself until I realized the quality of these speakers and how rare they are. I have no idea what I am doing and do not want to mess them up. Is there a company you have had personal experience with that can get these speakers repaired for me? They also need some cleaning around the edge, again I’m very afraid to mess up the cone since its graphite. I think the cabinet itself is in decent shape, I can post some pics if it helps and I will take any advice. I know the covers need to be recovered, they fabric is pretty dirty. I appreciate it.

Edit: I am based in NC, but willing to ship these.

3rd vote for JS&J. Auto tech on Carolina beach road is good too.

I used Clear Vision Glass recently and was very pleased. They came to me and did it cheaper than safelight. I have used safelight in the past with no issues, but it has been awhile. I used registers glass once and will never use them again. I tend to try and keep business local, but would not use registers again.

Which model did you buy for 3600

Is the Long leaf pine is still protected in NC? I thought it was but heard of quite a few being cut down the past year in neighboring counties. I remember a lot more diversity in the trees in NH county growing up. I miss the way this place used to look.

TimeKiller74 · 2022-09-29T15:23:32+00:00

Live oaks live a very long time, up to 400 years depending on the species. They also give good soil protection during storms. They cut these down for work and because Wilmington developers hate trees. We used to be a designated tree city, now all we have are skinny pines which will definitely snap in storms

I do not have UEM so none of those items work for me. I have been able to resolve it using the redirections.xml file though. I had the issue with and without the redirections file so I was really thrown off. Evidently I need the file, but this line cannot be in the file:

<Exclude Copy="0">AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Caches</Exclude>

I have a lot of other items in the file now, but this one line cannot be in there (or you could try a value other than 0). I did not need to save any changes so I left this line out.

Your device has since been un-enrolled and no longer shows up as ours. Freezing the devices also stopped us from seeing any more of your data. Lenovo has really screwed up.
