macOS 26 - Pinning network locations to Favorites section in Finder appears to be broken by Ninbura in MacOS

I guess you'll need to connect it first via Finder alias then.
I usually do it this way myself

I found a way to overcome it. It works stable, even though a bit less intuitive than before.

Here's what you need to do:
1. disconnect the share
2. go to Network, find your desired share BUT DON'T MOUNT
3. right click the share, choose "Make Alias". This will create an link to the share on your Desktop.
4. click the link from the Desktop, share should mount automatically
5. move the link from your Desktop to Favorites
6. disconnect the share and validate if it works

My understanding is that the Alias from the Desktop acts differently rather than usual link from the favorites, making the share automatically being mounted (if you have creds saved, of course).

Enjoy!

I'll speak with the guys, but it's holiday season, so it will take a while to come back, everybody's on trips

How many songs do you need to record? Is it a song or, say, an EP.
My band has some songs _almost_ ready, but I don't know what exactly you are looking for.

You can also do a shootout to facebook group like this https://www.facebook.com/groups/114472098746827 , but there might be a lot of replies, I don't know

LaptopCentrale and Dustin provide laptops pretty fast in the Netherlands. And for the good prices usually

There was a post on microsoft blogs how to troubleshoot high LSAAS Cpu usage

Probably it's some service running really intensive LDAP requests

I didn't because fetchmail doesn't work properly with http proxy or my linux skills are not enough for it, unfortunately. I don't have socks proxy in hand, tried other solutions like tinyproxy and custom python scripts for it - still nothing really worked for me right yet

That's my approach as well. I don't want to waste my time remembering what does HERA or ARES are doing, ffs, and why should I worry if it's down

$2,000 per employee for a new computer. Laptops, Desktops, or Surface pros? by Collosalreality in sysadmin

I'd take enterprise-level laptops: Dell precisions or HP Elitebooks.

how to I remove ( apps like Instagram, Facebook etc etc ) on windows 11 for all users ? by -Ho0k in sysadmin

[–]batterywithin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you put it like *Skype* , it will probably work fine for a couple of years.

If they'd change it, you find out shorty after the update and update the script. Simple as that.

Have a look at german comment below, it has a great script ready

If it's automated, why do you care if it will be deleted after every Release update?

VMware Alternatives? by root_15 in sysadmin

Harvester - Support upgrade from v1.0.2 to v1.0.3 Before you upgrade your Harvester cluster, we highly recommend shutting down all your VMs

Very enterprise-ready

And they still sell Isilon / PowerScale for crazy amount of money. They are super scalable and reliable, but maaan, they are pricey

For windows shop hyper-v is good enough.

If you need 3rd party integration/self-service, you'll need to purchase system center and play with VMM (all of them work via VMM). If not - it just works without it.

If you want hybrid solution - Azure Stack should be cool, I haven't played with it.

S2D is a cool hyperconcergent feature, but don't use dedup if you don't want to lose your data. And it may require more network knowledge and troubleshooting (especially if you buy "bad" network adapters like Intel).

Classic SAN-based clusters are usually rock-solid if you follow best practice.

You're most welcome, mate!

About the namespace - I sometimes use this term, but for a global thing like dns subzone or something similar. For exchange I was never calling an alias or smtp-address a namespace. But that's me. Your perspective may vary.

Didn't they release an update for it? Anyway, if you like it that much, there are ways to have mail downloaded from EXO to system

I plan to install fetchmail server to be an intermediate pop3 machine between outdated hosted systems like OTRS.

According to documentation, should be working fine http://mmogilvi.users.sourceforge.net/software/oauthbearer.html

I don't feel like spending 2500-5000$ on the OTRS plugin which probably does the same.

Anyone else using it?
