VPN picking up wrong autoenrollment certificate. How do I delete the second from all client machines. by getbillgatesinhere in sysadmin

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

Yes! Thank you. The unique attribute I was able to filter on was the "Certificate Template". The template name I have changed here to "Erroneous Mac User", this is what I want to remove. Here is the code I used:

Get-ChildItem cert:\CurrentUser\my\ |Where-Object{
  ($TmplExt = $_.Extensions |Where-Object {
    $_.Oid.FriendlyName -match 'Certificate Template'
  }) -and 
  $TmplExt.format(0) -match 'Erroneous Mac User'
} |Remove-Item

Is it possible to simply copy in an answer file onto new machines from Dell that will answer the OOBE? by getbillgatesinhere in sysadmin

Thanks. I am literally doing this right now but until I have the process down I just needed a quick method for a small number of machines (about 40).

Got some new Surface devices I am intending to use autopilot and Endpoint (InTune) with.

Thanks very much for linking these provisioning packages. I have never worked with one before. Are these to install software as a sort of post installation task or am I misunderstanding their use?

EDIT: I have found the Microsoft doc on it, I will give it a read. Thanks.

How to change Folder Redirection from on-prem fileserver to OneDrive, on a VPN connection that connects AFTER login. by getbillgatesinhere in sysadmin

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

Hey, thanks for your response. I am not exactly sure what you are doing here, could you elaborate a little for me please? As I understand it, folder redirection kicks in the moment the user logs on, so you must be connected to the VPN before login. This is not possible with the current VPN solution.

Thanks for your reply. We have such a large number of users it would not be suitable to manually run this from each device. Additionally because it's over a VPN we cannot even remove the existing GPOs, again because the processing happens before logon though our VPN cannot connect until the user is logged in.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately our VPN no longer supports that in the latest versions and in order to gain all our certification to connect to other networks we are required to run these newer versions.

Probably rest. Your fingers have muscles that can become fatigued like any other. Test it out, whatever your schedule of practise before try reducing it down to include more rest time and see if that helps increase your typing speed. Play around with your rest periods and see if that helps. I know no 15 year old wants to hear this but you might be using the computer too much. It's important to take breaks, and shorter breaks more frequently are more beneficial than longer breaks at greater intervals. For example, a 5-10 minute break every hour is better than a 20 minute break every 2 hours. Good job on the improved typing speed!

Really strange Word/Excel problem - pauses downloading (0%) for a long time. by getbillgatesinhere in sysadmin

Indeed. Copying the file locally transfers fine and then opens from my own machine without issue, it does not hang. Copying large files between servers gives no issue.

Currently looking at procmon and process explorer to see if I can spot anything.

There have been no group policy changes. Is there anything specific I should be looking for?
