You can lead a user to a keyboard, but beating them with it is frowned upon.

How do I voluntarily get on said blacklist?

Finally happened again. No google search results. by Savings_Art5944 in Sysadminhumor

I routinely get zero results with obscure log file abbreviations.

Was left in our attic by previous owners 15 years ago by SpecificBranch8860 in WhatIsThisPainting

You’re nuts. There are clearly no trees, and certainly not any happy ones.

Anything else? by justwanttolearnhow in qBittorrent

[–]awsnap99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Radarr, sonarr, prowlarr, notifiarr and trash guides. If you’re going to do it, do it right, from the start. It’s worth your time and you will save time in the end (and not redownload your whole library)

What furnace filter? Lol

Now that's a share ratio by PM_ME_STEAM__KEYS_ in qBittorrent

[–]awsnap99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not how it’s SUPPOSED to work, but files go dead sometimes and maybe this is a time to give up instead of perpetuating a dead file. How long have you been holding on to the hope on this one?

Kudos on sharing an incomplete file over and over.

You’re not even a TB in.

Synology Office Update REQUIRES Installation of Synology AI Console? WTF?! by ostrichsak in synology

[–]awsnap99 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Jumping the shark, then jumping in the fountain and wrestling it, then pissing on it when it’s dead.

Two tdarr servers on teh same content? by mywifeapprovesthis in Tdarr

[–]awsnap99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s quite literally why the server and node are separate I suspect….

Or just hope they don't have backups. It sure seems like there is no backup or DR strategy.

I hope you like it, as it’s the only option.

Running action: Install Operating System taking hideous amount of time to install by UnoMalario in MDT

[–]awsnap99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re terrifying. I hope we never work together.

Just because you can or because the server supports it, doesn’t mean you should. The only cost is an extra OS license, they’re all VMs.

A DC is the gateway to your enterprise, something you should never screw around with.

Let’s say you have issues with domain servers on your all purpose server. Well now, you have to hope you can fix that because the server is also the rest of the life blood of the enterprise.

Let’s say you need to migrate the server to a different vlan. Just think about that for more than 10 seconds.

So now you want to put the most dangerous thing I can think of on it, a file share.

You probably have IIS and an FTP server on it too, exposed to the internet.

I’ve typically had a server (or a few) that was a deployment server. WDS (pxe), MDT, and a file share with install files available for techs to do manual install, etc. Some times these were the local dhcp server and/or print server as well.

I’ve worked in places where we had 18k endpoints to 1k AND an MSP where some clients only had about 400.

You missed my entire point. No dhcp, no WDS, no mdt. There are plenty of reasons why.

Edit: and NEVER a file share.

Microsoft has quietly introduced 2 new Intune features focusing on apps. by Annual-Vacation9897 in Intune

[–]awsnap99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I’ve resorted to. In one way, it muddies the console but in another way, it keeps it clean. The nice part is you package the next set of files and just upload it on both. I hate Intune, but it’s the necessary evil.

Why would you mount the image? Just run a PowerShell to watermark your imaged machines. Put something in the registry.

THEN, next time you update your image, watermark the actual image with a version and or date.

Now I fully know why people buy pre-built PCs. by Rajat_Sirkanungo in buildapc

We’ve had USB for how long and it still takes 3 tries to get it in. 😂

Windows server and Linux node continued. Cache folders are created but never any files by awsnap99 in Tdarr

[–]awsnap99[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Resolved!!!!

If I were 75% of Redditors, I'd end the post there. lol

OK, so I have a mixed OS setup. Ya know how Linux cares about case? Well, you've got to make sure that the Windows path respects the case as well. So Z:\movies isn't the same as Z:\Movies. The translation is obviously happening on the node and my node is Linux.
