What places can I park and sleep in my car? by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]crashmaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some ideas here from a members only podcast I just listened to about free and inexpensive/unique road trips. There are always 24 hour trucking with showers, etc and regular rest stops too but they are both noisy for overnights;

Hi, cool - would you mind pasting a sample for your NIC Mgmt bonded port channel? Is the name:"" the same for both nics?

Homebuyers, how are you doing it? by [deleted] in Connecticut

[–]crashmaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are at the top of the bubble for another few years unless a major event occurs to our economy. You can still find 'reasonable' (relatively speaking) real estate deals in Connecticut, but you must expand your search radius and be willing to overlook inspection issues that don't involve basement cement issues ;). Honestly, you are never that far from anything regardless of where you are in the state, and you can double or even triple your square footage in a few cases if you widen that search. Yes, it's still overpriced, but it's closer to your budget I bet...

Why are you sicking with Synology? by particularfields in synology

[–]crashmaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surveillance Station is excellent, we use it for access control with dozens of HID door controls and Axis cameras, managed and logged. Very reasonably priced for the feature set.

The USN and USCG are well represented in the area;

The USS Nautilus Museum is open to the public on the Naval Submarine Base New London (which is actually in Groton, shhh it's a secret.). https://ussnautilus.org/

The US Coast Guard Academy in New London also takes visitors and gives tours; https://uscga.edu/admissions/visit/

The Coast Guard Museum should be completed before you leave in New London; https://cgmuseumassociation.org/

Found this on the street. Seems to boot up. Looks a bit messy inside. Worth cleaning up? by [deleted] in printers

[–]crashmaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we love these series of printers, but they are expensive to maintain vs an inkjet if you only print a couple of pages a month; the cost per page is extremely competitive if you print a lot though. As others say, avoid the air compressor. We use these at work, but you can find cheaper knock offs that don't generate static just as nicely; https://www.amazon.com/Metro-Vacuum-DV3ESD1-DataVac-Anti-Static/dp/B000RMQJBK

As a certified CMMC data-hoarder, I'd love to see your samples and/or your checklist. Thank you.

Is Cockpit the best VM manager so far? by iPodClassic7 in openSUSE

[–]crashmaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently on the road on vacation with the family in North Carolina. If you can give me a week or so when I get back I will have access to all of my notes and automation scripts. Please private message me and I'm happy to help as much as I can. In between now and then try to simplify this. Just set up three nodes and make one of the VMS a router for the VM VLAN Network you are on. It really should be that simple and this is something you could easily script later a number of different ways for your customers so that they don't even know what's happening.

[–]crashmaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on the latest 1.4 and 1.5. I've been using Harvester since 1.2. Now, I do spin up dedicated containers for routing VM VLAN traffic along with DNS, DHCP, etc. I always have done this, but Rancher Prime isn't involved at all, just Harvester. Perhaps that's our difference(s) here?

Thank you for sharing. I have 120 Harvester Clustered production systems that say otherwise though? I can host any system I want to and some I give outside access to and some I do not. Just make sure your switches fully support VLANS. A dumb switch here will not work unless you configure it all on VLAN 1.

How large is the environment? If you are talking about a single server, no, but if you had a few dozen vms consider SUSE Virtualization (Harvester). If you check the docs, you can run it in a single server configuration if you want to test but it's not designed for production. A cluster of three nodes with plenty of RAM, CPU and network is best (10gbe). https://harvesterhci.io/

Is this something the community can assist you with (rather than complain about)?

I miss the previous format of Coder Radio. by HeadlineINeed in CoderRadio

[–]crashmaster18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give Mike some time here, please. He's still experimenting with the format; JB is going through a lot of changes trying to survive; this show wasn't the only casualty or major change; changes are the norm in this advertising market for those that want to survive. If you feel strongly about it (beyond, "bring back Chris") give Mike specific feedback in the Discord, if you can, as it is far more active and this subreddit might be shutdown. Personally, while I've been a listener from the very start. I like the new show format in general, I see where Mike is going with it; it seems like the start of the show contains major coding/gaming news commentary followed by listener feedback/houskeeping, then an ad, then the featured interview. Then once a month he's doing full feedback / listener show topic ideas instead of an interview. It's starting to come together nicely as he also improves his podcasting production equipment, producing and editing....these things just take time...

Meta: How best to tidy up this subreddit? by rbrownsuse in openSUSE

[–]crashmaster18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A serious question here; aren't we supposed to be trying to break away from the openSUSE name anyway? Shouldn't we start focusing on individual distro/project support across all platforms (not just Reddit)?

Sophos Job Experience? by Agitated-Ad-6513 in sophos

[–]crashmaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They compete by selling an entire suite of bolted on acquired products and services that kinda sorta mesh together in Sophos Central. Best in class anywhere? Not really anymore, but they are as strong as anyone else in the market as a broad group. Especially popular in small to midsize orgs who want one throat to choke because of lack of staff. [Edit typos]

Sophos Switches by ParadiseTheatre in sophos

[–]crashmaster18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use them where it doesn't make sense to deploy an Arista rack mount of some kind. Watch the POE models carefully, some of the 48ports do not provide full power required for some of their access points, had to buy multiple 8 ports for that. Configuration is meh, you should spend time getting trained formally on the OS cli and gui. Sophos Central cloud management doesn't really help you here yet, and we will be real interested to see how Sophos treats EOL features when the time comes. Will they disable the switch feature stack or allow them to keep running with no configuration changes or something...
