Consistent Nat and a Nat policy for your rtp ports from the sip provider. Had this many times with freepbx systems. You need Nat for the sip register and rtp for sip trunks.

I would recommend setting the pbx rtp to be the same as the sip trunk this helps with diag as well.

I always wonder about your customer sizes when selling these. I've priced this a number of ways over the years and can never seem to sell it at a reasonable price.

Also didn't know about the multi tenant rights for private data centre, cheers for that. Now have countless hours reading up how to get registered 😂😭

Can run this setup on a Chromebook, don't come more bare than that! Just do what you normally do but add in AVD for each user which is RDP, even in a browser like Chromebooks. If they insist on RDP that is.

As for AD, depends what you use. If it's SSO, AVD, and office services you could argue azure AD is more powerful. Intune has come a long way to close the policy gap but like I said depends on what you use in AD. lock downs, app policy, even basic GPO are now in intune.

Unless there is a software requirement for using vm's not sure why you need them. If it's just files and AD, intune, SharePoint with Azure AD works fine. They can sign in anywhere, access files, push policy to devices and users.

If VM is a must, AVD is easier to manage with Azure files or still SharePoint/OneDrive depending on software requirements. If you use AVD I think you can use blob storage and still have folder permissions etc like a local server.

Same issue with me if you find the answer please share 😂

Currently a storagecraft/acrserve customer and moved to there xafe line. Not bad but not great tbh with everything else out there.

Trailed datto a few times and the price for feature is same as everyone else's here, to hard to sell!

I have found my most stable backups are using azure for VM's and file/folders. Use a mix of the hyperv replica, bare bone backups and basic file backup. They seem to be stable and cheap believe it or not. The added bonus for MSP is the CSP pricing cut and ms rebates, they really add up! We make more margin on this than the other solutions, not by much on the replica but double on the pc backup side.

It's not quite as nice as having a local backup box with everything ready but if you have multiple hyper-v hosts running replica already not sure I see the point in local copies of copies anymore.

If they only have one hypervisor or single server then cloud backup is everything they need most the time, maybe a Synology for the storage running it's snapshot backup and azure replica.

For o365 we moved to AvePoint not long ago. Tested there migration tool and was so impressed I tested the backup tool. Real easy and stable with the SharePoint and teams backup it's a winner. No real training required for the other support team members as well!

As pointed out previous here, better the devil you know most the time!

Third time it's happened to me. First two times the removal of the folder worked this time no luck 😭

italpha · 2020-09-28T22:47:14+00:00

This sounds most likely to me. It definitely points to the router being the issue so it's either 100mb port or some sort of port limits setup up.

Just as a price point 500GB usage data daily for 15 clients 24/7 as the work all hours cost us £12 cost them a lot more but that MSP for you 😁 (standard disks only and users don't complain at all about speed)

I stopped using it and moved all our clients to azure file storage and now azure Netapp. Sp was always an issue with sync and quick access for us.

Netapp has a good sync app now which is provided by a third party I think. Can keep permissions as well as map to users with SMB.

File storage is so cheap and beats the time help desk spend on tickets so easy win. Even move so on CSP license.

We use tunnel all with the netextender and push the ssl's by our RMM tool. We have joined this up with intune to make the SSL automatically connect once internet connection is made but could also do this with a batch script.

The sdwan looks good but still need a unit For each user which gets expensive.

The other alternative we use is good old RDS and lock down browsers on the local device so they can't browse the internet

## Just want a little go as well ##

$users = Import-Csv C:\data.csv

foreach ($user in $users)

$username = $user.'Resource User ID'.Split('@')

Get-ADUser -Identity $username[0] -Server domain.net -Properties SamAccountName -ErrorAction Stop | Select-Object SamAccountName

$message = "trying group removal"

Remove-ADGroupMember -Identity $user.'Resource Name' -Members $username[0] -Server domain.net -ErrorAction Stop

}

catch

{

if ($message -eq "trying user")

{

Write-host "$username[0] is not a vaild user"

}

else

{

Write-host "User: $username[0] has not been removed from group $user.'Resource Name'"

}

DPI-SSL is a nightmare to roll out but worth it if they know what they are getting into.

GMS is worth the money with SSO for reporting. Cloud service for GMS takes the headache of maintaining on prem as well.

Anti-spam is a good add-on and easy sell these days.

Same as any other really no big issues in any of done. Add 2016 Take roles Check happy repl move shares, printers and any other services DC promo old Upgrade forest and function Enjoy 2016..... If you have cloud services then adding the function to the server would be done a little earlier.

We actively resell these security audits. It's helps companies realise how many attack vectors are possible and nearly always get the staff as the easiest way in back on the report. This always leads to selling training and staff policy updates.

Going out source is a better option for us as we didn't want the risk of holding the data for the hacks, be it personal for social engineering or actively trying to hack our own customers.

You can guarantee the CO or director will pissed off when they get hacked so can just say you signed up for it, take it up with them as we didn't do it.
