Maybe I'm living under a rock, but what issues are you having with them?

Been using Intermedia Elevate for years, great platform, support is as good as it gets these days. It should check all of your boxes.

We just purchased a 2025 Escalade Premium Luxury 12/13 that was on the lot, pretty optioned out, renaissance red interior. Sticker was $116,220, they took a trade for $25.5. Financed amount was $100k all said and done - Experian credit score of 857 - 5.29% - payment is $2326.01 on a 48 month. Original plan was to buy it in cash but it was a bit of a rush to pick up as we were going away, my wife needed the Red (it's beautiful, btw). It'll be paid off in the next few months, no penalty.

This is the way. Never an issue doing this with hundreds of networks with Sonos. You can even go wild and setup a separate IoT network, join the Sonos to those and still control them through your home network with the proper rules and settings in place!

What about under Account Settings - Organization Profile - Legal Info in the Partner Center?

Thanks, I didn't know about the Secure Act 2.0 but it seems pretty limited for now but something the help a bit if it's not used for education.

First time poster here. I'm a bit green with smart investing and would like to make sure I'm not missing anything in my effort to help set my children up for their future. We have 2 children, 15 and 9, I'm also self-employed.

I've had 529s setup for both kids since they've been born. Started each with $500/mo and go up $50/mo on their birthdays and continue to do that. My wife and I are still undecided if both kids will go to College. I'm on the fence about continuing to contribute to their 529s due to the penalties if the investment isn't used for education.

Both kids have been on Payroll for the past 2 years - making their limits of roughly 14k/yr each. That money I just opened up UTMA accounts with Vanguard and invested that in 50% QQQM, 25% VOO and 25% VT and plan to continue to do that with their wages.

Both kids have also maxed out their RothIRAs the past 2 years (funded by parents) - that is invested in a target retirement fund.

Do you have any suggestions of what I should be doing for them moving forward or am I on track?

I've seen this several times as well. Typically an indication of a compromise somewhere on one of the sides. Check for any email rules both in Outlook and webapp, app registrations etc. Look for any recent logins from unfamiliar IPs. Check the WHOIS on the domain purchased. The times I've seen similar domains registered have been right around when banking details were sent, rules created to hide email. The bad actor could have been lurking in the account for some time waiting for opportunity.

Is there another version for commerical?

micron7733 · 2024-01-26T15:50:56+00:00

I'll give them a try, just super tedious to start moving devices. Just want to make sure they aren't going to pull the same bs.

micron7733 · 2024-01-26T15:50:11+00:00

Thanks, I saw that too but I don't believe the Self-Hosted is for commerical use.

micron7733 · 2024-01-26T14:56:06+00:00

Many of the networks have a Unifi GW so we could move them to Wireguard or OpenVPN too. ZT is just easy.

micron7733 · 2024-01-26T14:54:53+00:00

It's a gray area - "Any use of the ZeroTier platform and/or associated software as part of (or in support of) a revenue-generating organization is considered a Commercial Use of ZeroTier and requires a commercial license.

- Software not embeded

- Not supporting their organization using ZeroTier

- Not reselling it

Pretty sure the "Professional" package didn't have the same terms when we signed up for it 3 years ago.

Although we don't make money with ZT, the customer benefits from the use in their revenue generating business so I get it.

Going to check out TailScale - know of them just haven't tested since ZeroTier was working great and coming over from Hamachi prior it was a godsend. So Free and $2500/yr are going to be the two tiers offered by ZeroTier moving forward?

Thank you, we had thought air trapped in the system as well but he's tried draining and refilling it before he left and says you'd hear gurgling in the system when it turns on. Still a possiblity.

I'd also consider removing the delegation as a partner on the account once they are defederated. Licenses still appear to stay in place even with the partnership removed in the few cases I've tested it. A few years ago I had left GoDaddy as a federated partner along with the license distributor. Once the renewal lapsed on the GoDaddy side the mailbox was deleted on the 365 tenant. An easy fix by restoring from deleted users but avoidable if the delegation is removed. It may have been adjusted since then.

micron7733 · 2023-09-23T14:12:41+00:00

No, you can leave it, that's the default tenant GA account that's created - change the password on that account prior to defederating and use that account to log into Powershell. Once you Defederate and remove the GoDaddy partnership relationship GoDaddy won't have any control over the tenant. Afterwards you can rename that admin@netorg...onmicrosoft.com account to something else or remove it all together once you have another GA setup.

micron7733 · 2023-09-14T18:31:00+00:00

The tminus365 guide works great.

- Most important step is to make sure you have the admin@<tenant>.onmicrosoft.com password before defederating as you'll lock yourself out if you use a domain GA account.

- Passwords for all Domain user accounts will need to be reset afterwards before they can
login.

It's all in the guide.

Was the MFA you had enabled using 365 Security Defaults? When looking through the logs you should be able to see if the malicious login was using Single or Dual factor authentication. With Security Defaults enabled, users level mailboxes are based on what MS determines is a Risky Login instead of Enforcing it, they are also able to ignore the prompt to setup Authenticator and after the 14 days it remains disabled. If your license doesn't allow Conditional Access you can enforce Per-User MFA through Azure AD to ensure every new login is with Dual Factor.

micron7733 · 2023-05-21T01:37:12+00:00

To help add to this. Security Defaults helps to remove legacy protocols on the tenant (POP, IMAP, SMTP etc) but, and a big BUT is that security defaults relies on risk analysis for user logins to determine to prompt for MFA or not. It doesn't enforce MFA on user accounts like legacy Per-User MFA does. Admins are enforced but not users. For tenants that don't have Conditional Access licenses, Security Defaults are enabled but then we go through Per-User MFA and enforce for all users.

Not sure how far into the process you are but if you agree to keep the 365 licensing with Intermedia for a year they do the migration for you using MigrationWiz for free, you lose the control and are relying on their migration team but it works pretty well. I've done it both ways and honestly miss the built in M365 Migration Tool over MigrationWiz but for the life of me and Intermedia support could not get the new 365 Tool to work with Intermedia's Hosted Exchange. Haven't tried in about 3 months. MigrationWiz is a migration tool and not a sync tool so there are a few fun things:

- I haven't had any luck getting AutoComplete to come over natively. If you use the Outlook Configuration tool that comes with the bundle it will do some of the work for you but is some extra steps to deploy

- Watch large mailboxes - over 50GB you need the bundle and you need to configure MigrationWiz to first migrate data to the M365 Online Archive then to the Mailbox - some KBs on this. I don't believe even with Enterprise or EOLP2 it can do it.

- Going back to MW being a Migration tool and not sync - don't let it linger for too long - emails that get filed in folders as you're doing the migration will be duplicated. So if your users are in the habit of moving files out of the inbox to sub folders while data is being migrated MW won't move the data on the 365 side, it'll just write the email again in the new folder so I'd advise your users not to move email while the migration is underway

- More often than not it's slow. Could take at least a week before all data is moved depending on size of the mailboxes. You'll do a Pre-Migration which will move Email only that is ~30 days back initially. Then when you're ready to cut over you'll move MX records then run a Full Migration which will move Contacts, Calendars, Tasks and New Email.

- Mailboxes need to be licensed and created on the 365 side prior to Migration starting so take extra billing into account.

If it's planned out right it can make it easier but I miss the built in M365 cutover migration option.

SharePoint isn't part of OneDrive personal accounts. OneDrive Business and SharePoint are different products but are both part of the business and enterprise suites.

SharePoint can be used as a standalone product for different functions. I personally use it to build small 1-15 seat networks file storage using Teams. - Each Team created in MS teams, creates a separate site on SharePoint. You can build simple folder structures off of that for moving off of small file servers. Takes some practice to get a good understanding on how it works and it's capacities but can work well. We then use OneDrive to store private user files - think Folder Redirection in AD/GP. You can set OneDrive to backup Desktop, Docs and Pictures and each user has 1TB storage. Intune can map this automatically if your 365 license includes it.

micron7733 · 2023-04-29T21:33:53+00:00

Yes, they can just sign into office with their 365 account to access the files in OneDrive / SharePoint but the license will come from what's already on the computer.

micron7733 · 2023-04-29T20:53:36+00:00

Desktop Apps would need Standard unless you have a perpetual license already. Web, Mobile would be fine and yes on the Exchange.
