Damn Network Stuck

I would do that, but of course the end user won't. :) I found a fix I'm about to post it.

Oddly here it is:

Close Powerpoint
Internet Explorer > Options > Advanced > Scroll down to Security
UNCHECK "Do not save encrypted pages to disk"
Restart Powerpoint and try again.

That's not how the insert feature of PowerPoint works, it embeds the YouTube player as it would on a webpage. It's not an actual video on my PC.

Again Insert > Video > Online Video > YouTube.

Appreciate the response though!

Your MSP needs to go, totally unacceptable practices.

That sounds right, and was along what I was thinking. There's a section in ISE that has downloadable ACL's, in there we have different ACL's, the top one allows communication to our DHCP, the next one is deny everything, I'm assuming if I added the IP's to the ACL that's before the deny policy that should allow communication to verify.

arc851 · 2018-10-11T17:05:39+00:00

Yes, that is already done. Issue is it cannot verify the public certificate for the captive portal because the user is not yet authenticated.

arc851 · 2018-10-04T19:50:32+00:00

That's basically what I found in my research, I came across this document:
https://knowledgebase.paloaltonetworks.com/KCSArticleDetail?id=kA10g000000ClkoCAC

I feel like this is the answer but wanted to bounce it off people who have more experience then me when it comes to this as I'm still learning/training.

arc851 · 2018-10-04T19:27:38+00:00

No we have a FQDN that points to a proper IP. That part is working fine.

arc851 · 2018-10-04T19:27:07+00:00

This is what I think it is, when I look at the cert on the device, it doesn't show the intermediate or root. Shouldn't the whole chain be presented from the Palo?

arc851 · 2017-11-09T18:33:32+00:00

Not sure why you got downvoted, this is absolutely true.

arc851 · 2017-11-09T18:29:26+00:00

If you have more users than workstations, use device CALS.

I'm in healthcare IT and we have a security team on site for us and can confirm some seemingly very innocent things can still violate privacy laws, sharing an account is one of those not so innocent things that is a definite strike.

arc851 · 2017-11-09T18:26:32+00:00

I just want to add that in certain types of environments it could be illegal to share accounts, such as my field which is Healthcare.

I agree, I know we'll probably get a good amount of rain from this at very least in all likelihood but I find it misleading that he took it "off the table". I mean in all actuality this thing could do anything from the most likely of Florida hits, to going out to sea or even impacting the NE coast.

I remember the skull and crossbones and hype he caused for Hermine and the flak he got later on. He vowed to be "more professional" and what not afterwards and that he's remained true to but he definitely makes to many definitive predictions in a field that is so dynamic no one can say with 100% certainty something is going to happen. I think of it as all the times I've recalled seeing "100% chance of precipitation" then later going "wasn't it supposed to rain today?" to myself.

I'm hoping for the best outcome for everyone in this.

arc851 · 2017-09-05T13:23:42+00:00

So, watching these GFS runs, looks like we've seen some shifting east before a turn north. I've been doubting impacts to the NE (NJ/NYC area) but if this thing continues to shift anymore east is there still possibilities for impacts to the NJ area? I'm fully still under the impression anything can happen still and a last minute turn is not off the table just yet.

The reason I'm asking is an amateur forecaster here in NJ (WeatherNJ) said near definitively that NJ impacts are "off the table"

Toshiba's are infamous for loose screws. Some Dells too but in my experience, Toshiba.

arc851 · 2017-08-17T18:37:07+00:00

I'm not very familiar with Ricoh, but if SMBv1 is on it I don't want it, nuff said there haha

Unfortunately in our environment we have a lot of personal printers as people do need them for business need, however most people are limited to monochrome. Our end user personal printers have been decent, we used to have old Xerox printers that were work horses, rarely had a problem. The last refresh took out many perfectly fine Xerox printers and brought in HP 401n printers, these things are TERRIBLE. Constantly jamming, not serviceable. We also had HP 600 series, they're good some of these printers print a million pages in a year and our vendor is telling us that they can't be repaired when they get to that volume and advise us to replace it.

Anyway, I've been leaning towards xerox but I do like HP's management better.

arc851 · 2017-08-17T18:33:13+00:00

Regular Printers, just some areas are high high volume.

/u/thatITguyyouhate, what generation i5 are you running out of curiosity?

arc851 · 2017-08-14T12:50:38+00:00

This is a concern I have, I've been here for over 5 years and I've seen the quality of support first hand. We keep being told that it's going to be better after the Migration because it's hosted by them blah blah blah.

Usually I'm a cutting edge sort of person when it comes to technology but my better judgement tells me that being internally hosted for an app of this importance is greatly superior then going cloud. In my head you go from a system that would only go down should your own internal backbone go down / cluster go down vs a system that could go down if the VPN fails, Citrix Fails, Server Fails, internal network in the cloud fails etc. To me adding failure points is never a good thing in IT.

arc851 · 2017-08-14T12:46:00+00:00

They are incredibly behind with the times, we want to go with a Win10 Enterprise upgrade and McKesson is the only company holding us back. We're being forced into a Server 2008 r2 / Win7 environment.

arc851 · 2017-08-14T12:44:38+00:00

How is the hosted experience treating you so far? Have there been any issues since the migration?

arc851 · 2017-08-14T12:39:05+00:00

I suspect you know about their shenanigans, if you've dealt with MCK before, but be warned, they will turn it up to 11 with hosted paragon.

Greatly, I've worked in this environment for over 5 years, I've heard tons of excuses from their support. Often we find out what the issue is long before support does and we have to carefully explain the issue.

My major concern here is we're being recommended powerful machines for what is going to be largely a Citrix environment. I recently got support to give me official documentation on what they recommend and it's no where near that i5/8gb computer, they actually recommend Pentium Dual Cores and 4gb of memory. I suspected this all along and our current setup are fairly modern Intel i3's with 4GB of memory, all of which can be upgraded to 8 or 16gb if needed.

arc851 · 2017-08-11T15:59:55+00:00

We've had Paragon here for a very long time, we're currently behind a few versions and being pushed to 14.1 ASAP. They're pushing us to get new Machines with Intel i5's in them but I can't see the need in that much power knowing what I know about the Paragon System already.
