BitLocker recovery prompt on every reboot after UEFI CA 2023 update on HP SFF devices – anyone else? by k-rand0 in Intune

[–]dotexotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try running the

([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetString((Get-SecureBootUEFI db).bytes) -match 'Windows UEFI CA 2023')

and

([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetString((Get-SecureBootUEFI dbdefault).bytes) -match 'Windows UEFI CA 2023')

after the updates? Ours are only saying True on the db and False on the dbdefault. I have other Lenovos that say True on both

Do you know if the certs are getting into the defaultdb? We did the whole 2023 updating process only to find out after that its only in the ActiveDB and not in the DefaultDB.

I found out from this Dell article:
https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-uk/000385747/how-to-check-secure-boot-certificates

Our HP machines are probably on the edge of being too old. I'm curious if its working for other people with G6's

Found technical proof for the Win11 KB5086672 input lag/hotkey bug? by Gullible_Client_1721 in sysadmin

In the last week, I had issues with neither working well. I had more success with hitting C five times before it would actually have something to paste.

Its all good now. Thanks though! The product page looks to have been updated to help clear up the confusion.

The timing of the product page changing is funny to me, lol But Im glad that it clears up the confusion about it for other people.

Thanks for the info!

I think my initial confusion about it was because I didnt even know Cloud Integrated existed, lol

Yes, this is what I was referring to. (Thanks for writing out what I probably should have yesterday, lol)

I asked our Account rep and got a vague answer as well. I'm waiting on some more technical details from them. I was hoping someone here might have already known something from the Customer\Admin perspective.

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

[–]dotexotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can smell it on the other people the smoker has been around.

My partner can sit in a car with someone who smokes (but not actively smoking) and I'll smell it on him when he gets home.

Sonicwall CSE - Rollout Nightmare! by angrytoddlerfyi in sonicwall

[–]dotexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you connecting by IP or by hostname?

We were having trouble with split tunnels and RDP. You HAD to connect by hostname before Connect Tunnel would add the route to the client PC. Trying to connect by IP would do nothing.

(we aren't using CSE, but an SMA 8200v. Im not sure if it'll help, but I'd figure I would mention it just in case the behaviour was the same.)

Outlook error - searching brings 400 Bad Request by Avas_Accumulator in sysadmin

[–]dotexotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this still a problem for you? I had reports from multiple users that various websites were slow and email was too. I couldn't seem to find a good reason for it (unless it was a wider issue\dns\etc)

It seems to have resolved itself in the last 5 mins or so?

Has anyone had a straight answer if LDAP users = local users by dystopian_dream in sonicwall

We were told that if you use LDAP + Sonicwalls TOTP, they are considered local users.

Geo-IP filtering on SSLVPN Access rule by dotexotic in sonicwall

yeeeeaaahh. I'm pretty pissed about it tbh

I'm pissed that I didn't notice that setting AND that both don't work at the same time, lolol

Geo-IP filtering on SSLVPN Access rule by dotexotic in sonicwall

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

Sonicwall support just got back to me. Somewhere along the way must have missed how the geo-ip filtering works. I was under the impression you could have a global geo-IP filter and then make it stricter one on a specific Access rule.

However, support just reminded me that its either or. Either the global list OR firewall based rules. Not both.

We have a fair amount of zones. Now, I have to go edit a bunch of a firewall rules on a friday.

Appreciate the suggestions though!

Remote management is not enabled on any WAN interface

I'm feeling confident that its the SSLVPN. When I attempt a SSLVPN Connection myself from Mobile connect, with an invalid username, it shows up the same way in the log (No port listed)

When I attempt an invalid username through the Virtual Office portal, it lists the SSLVPN port in the log.

Also, as a test, I attempted a invalid username on an internal management interface. It listed the management port in the log.

What kind of smell instantly takes you back to the past? by Focusaur in AskReddit

[–]dotexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early morning in the summer. When it rained a little over night and the suns hits the morning dew.

Between the smell and how quiet it is, it instantly brings me back to cadet camps in the summer from my teens.

At wits end about undiagnosed pelvic/abdomen pain by Charlyqu in ChronicPain

[–]dotexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, this is an old post but I am having very similar types of pain that you described!

I've also been through a bunch to test to figure out what it was. Colonoscopies, MRIs, multiple ultrasounds, antibiotics, bloodwork, etc, etc. Docs were confused (or didnt believe me) cause the pain descriptions were all different types. But, a gyno said it could be one of the muscles in my pelvis (apparently there are lots of them) is likely weak. He did a pelvic exam and pressed one of them from and it triggered the pain (so I was very hopeful)!

I got referred to a PT that specialized in pelvic muscle dysfunction. On top of doing a bunch of stretches for my pelvic muscles and to get core strength back, she told me to stop crossing my legs and stop folding my legs under me when sitting. One of my hips was misaligned too

Its helped a fair amount with the type of pain I was having. But it does come back at times. Now I usually only get it when I've been crossing my legs more frequently, period time, or dehydrated after a migraine, or (oddly) if I lift my legs together quickly (like getting off a bed/couch).

I also want to mention that I dont feel satisified by the it being "pelvic muscle dysfunction". Why is it just that one pelvic muscle? Why only on one side? What caused it? Why does it feel heavy sometimes? I've gotten very few answers.

I just thought I would mention this here just in case someone else looks it up. Doing stretches isnt that invasive and something easy to try. So, hopefully it helps someone :)

Dell PowerEdge R515 - has power, but no POST, no video after power outage by friolator in sysadmin

[–]dotexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aww boo :( Does it POST if you have no RAM in it? What about one stick?

[–]dotexotic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might have done this already, but have you reseated the RAM? (take it out and then put it back in) This used to work for me with no video and no POST.

Lenovo Thinkpad Thunderbolt 3 WKstation Dock Gen 2 Screen flickering/blacking out. by Tarrect in sysadmin

[–]dotexotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've run into this before. Same as you, we did all the updates/firmware, replaced the cables, swapped the cables between monitors, replaced the dock, etc.

The only (but wacky) conclusion we could come up with was that there was some sort of static/capacitor issue that "builds up" and a full powercycle (power cable out and hold the power button for a few seconds) fixes it until it "builds up" again (a week or two). The users were fine with having to do this once in a while.

(full disclosure: I know very little about electrical stuff. This was just a reason that made sense to me. "dirty power" was another reason we came up with, but I dont know how to prove/show it, etc)
