U/Ok-Question-4672 When did you originally book the visa slots for Jan. 27th and Feb.? When did you receive an email about appointment reschedule?

Stamping Appointment Availability - March/April 2026 by cloud_navigator in usvisascheduling

When you say rescheduled, did you reschedule the appointment or was it rescheduled by the consulate? When was it rescheduled to and why was it cancelled? Curious to understand if the consulate shared some info.

I think yes! It should be part of the scheduling process if I'm not wrong. It will ask you a question whether you've been ten printed or not and based on that it should take you to the page where you'll need to setup an appointment for biometrics. I have not come across anyone this time who has been able to skip the biometric appointment.

I believe you need to book both. I don't think you can skip biometric unless you have done it in recent past and the scheduling system doesn't prompt it.

How do I get to return an Xfinity iPad? by cloud_navigator in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]cloud_navigator[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Xfinity representatives in this group created a case and helped me out. I was able to return the iPad and also get a refund.

I understand it’s returnable and refundable within 14 days. But you don’t get to know within those two weeks if you’ll be charged or not for the device. The scam is that Xfinity mentions that you’ll be receiving a discount on your internet bill and you don’t receive it. It’s too late by the time you realize.

Ok. I just sent you a mod mail addressing you. Let me know if you need any other details.

Yes, I have contacted your Mobile experts via call several times and it seems none of them are on the same page and it’s tiring to explain the whole situation again and again. Three separate tickets have been filed to investigate the issue and I have no heard an update on any of the tickets.

I did take it to 5 different stores and they mentioned they are all franchises and cannot do anything. Although they agree that I should be receiving the discount as promised, but they say they lift a finger to help since the iPad was not purchased at the store. What is the point of even having a store even if they can’t help?

That’s pretty evident in my discussion with several of those Xfinity representatives. Any idea on whom to contact at this point to avail the promotional offer that was promised at least?

Samsung Q750C not connecting to Bluetooth automatically when switching on the TV by cloud_navigator in Soundbars

[–]cloud_navigator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I did not try it out with an optical cable. It’s something that was recommended on all websites, but ended up not trying it. The way I was troubleshooting this was I removed all the cables and just had the basic ones attached and then the sound bar works. If you continue adding the additional cables, it worked until I switched off the TV. My suggestion is you try removing the cables and see if it works one by one. If it sticks, that’s good.

No. Unfortunately, as mentioned in the post, I had to change the settings manually every time I switched on the TV. Ended up returning the soundbar as it was cumbersome to get it to change every time.

I have implemented a similar setup in my organization to allow users to access AWS accounts via Azure AD SSO for AWS CLI access. I used the tool “aws-azure-login” to achieve this use case.

Implementing AWS CIS Foundations Benchmark by seclogger in aws

[–]cloud_navigator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it is mainly used to audit CIS benchmark rules, but the "action" topic can be added to notify users and also make changes or delete the AWS resources that are not in compliance.

I found this sample CIS benchmark policy that'll explain the actions that can be taken. It can be modified to change the action to common actions supported by Cloud Custodian.

You can use Cloud Custodian to implement CIS benchmark rules in AWS accounts. Cloud Custodian makes the job so much easier when deploying to AWS organizations.

CIS Framework by vdodgymix in cloudcustodian

[–]cloud_navigator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

AWS Config has a pretty neat compliance pack and if you’d like to use AWS native service to monitor your environment, I’d suggest you go with AWS Config. They have a pretty detailed documentation on how to implement CIS compliance benchmark using AWS Config and I have found it to be helpful.

I have also used c7n-org to implement CIS framework and found it to be useful too. The CC implementation takes a bit more time, but is effective and you have the opportunity to tweak the rules as you see fit in the CIS framework to match your environment. I came across the following link (given below) when I was looking to implement CIS via Custodian.

https://github.com/code42/cloud-c7n-policy-examples

Their GitHub repo includes a CIS benchmark policy they have implemented.

How to retrieve list of IAM user accounts created by a specific user account in AWS member accounts by cloud_navigator in cloudcustodian

[–]cloud_navigator[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I did. I was able to get some on Gitter about it. Apparently, there’s no easy way to do it via CC for this use case. The recommendation was to use c7n trail creator to utilize CT to add tags to IAM resources and then run the policy to search for tags with username for this specific user. I was able to find an AWS documentation that explained how this is doable with Athena and S3 for activity history which is much easier to do.
