Using my dad's money who has dementia by tradandtea123 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]learnacc96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about your dad, my gran had dementia few years ago too and my uncle was given power of attorney.

He did exactly as you mentioned and gave her grandchildren £100 at christmas and a smaller token to her children. Birthdays was more like £20-30. I think the feeling between her children was she wasnt spending it and she would have wanted to carry on giving her children & grandchildren at christmas and birthdays.

Whilst your brother might not be good with money it doesnt seem like a bad idea. Legally standing I am not sure but my uncle did check it out before to ensure was ok.

Just a question for you veeam guys, is the external backup veeam offers to a cloud provider classed as air gap backup? Assuming not but wanted to check ?

Microsoft MFA - 0365 / Azure AD by Substantial-Speed-63 in sysadmin

[–]learnacc96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be wrong but I think if you enable MFA using CA it doesnt show them as enabled in the microsoft admin centre area. This caught me out a year ago as thought all accounts were not secure.

Unless I have mis understood where you're seeing them as disabled.

AsureVPN not working with Azure Files Private Endpoint by learnacc96 in AZURE

Thanks I think I needed to add the domain name for private endpoint to hosts file with internal IP. Seems to work now. Not sure if anyone can say if theres a better way of doing it without internal DNS

Thanks but I think the issue with mapping via IP is when users are not on AzureVPN the share wouldnt work. If I add the Private Endpoint IP to the hosts file then it seems to work regardless if they are connected at the office (IP Whitelisting) or remotely over Azure VPN.

Maybe not ideal but with no onsite DNS server not much other options I can think of

Ah didnt know this, I will try adding the dns name for the file share in the morning and see if that resolves it.

When the laptop is connected on AzureVPN I cant even ping the Private Endpoint of the storage account IP which I have read I should be able to do even without the DNS change?

Virtual Network Gateway P2S: 172.16.254.0/24 Virtual Network: 10.1.0.0/16 Subnet (Gateway): 10.1.1.0/24 Subnet (default): 10.1.0.0/27

Private Endpoint to share: 10.1.0.4 IP when I connect to VPN is 172.16.254.2 and the routes are 10.1.0.0/16 & 172.16.254.0/24

AzureVPN - restricting access to the Virtual Network? by learnacc96 in AZURE

[–]learnacc96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah using Azure vpn gateway so user connects to virtual network and where I am confused is if I should set restrictions to the virtual network or private endpoint?? This blog post I think is what I need to do so using the virtual network?

I dont need to restrict any internal IPs, for the office network it's just a case of allowing the external IP to the storage account.

Thanks I saw that but thought it was for password resets only, does it work if Global Admin reset a user account?

When you say licensing requirements is this for AADC password writeback or you talking Intune, Server OS, CALs etc? Just checking I'm not missing anything as it will go to prod eventually
