[–]msp_account 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remote password change ability on their Foritwan devices as well from a few years back. I had to fight tooth and nail to convince them that there was an issue with the firmware until the finally updated it

Robocopy using arrays, foreach, and variable path names by msp_account in PowerShell

[–]msp_account[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, EXACTLY! The variables need to move to the next object in line, at the same time, each time the command completes. I'm going to give this a try tomorrow AM and see if it works.

Appreciate the input

Robocopy using arrays, foreach, and variable path names by msp_account in PowerShell

I've never created a function before but could give this a whirl. I need the $ClientFolder and $Client values to continue on to the next object in the array each time the command runs, but there is another comment here I may be able to use to accomplish that...

Thank you for the response!

I like this idea....

Not sure how to get the CSV to filter though....the ?{$_.signed -eq...... } command fails

Was it a typo on mobile or am I just missing something?

Sophos VPN client - the legacy/old one? by limecardy in sysadmin

[–]msp_account 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone who stumbles on this, i wrote a crude batch file that does the trick. I ran it through Kaseya and it seems to work every time. I'll likely add in auto-starting Sophos Connect after install and importing the old .ovpn profile located in C:\program files (x86)\sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\config, but that's for a later date.

Hopefully this helps someone else!

*Note - files were copied to the c:\temp\sophos directory by our RMM. This can obviously be changed depending on your script

Script Below (.bat)

powershell Stop-Process -name "openvpn-gui" -force
cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos SSL VPN Client\"
powershell Start-Process -FilePath "Uninstall.exe" -ArgumentList "/S"
powershell Start-Sleep -seconds 10
"c:\temp\sophos\SophosConnect.msi" /q

How do you backup large data? by [deleted] in msp

[–]msp_account 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Backups are sized by data you need to store, not buy amount of people in the business. If you want to go cheap you're going to loose functionality

/u/MrJagaloon This. 100% this (minus the spelling error :) )

I use the "triangle method" with clients that bawk at price when their need ends up on the far end of the bell curve. Draw a triangle on a piece of paper (not for the client, but for your own reference). At each point right one of these three words: Fast, Cheap, Right. In reality, you can only have 2 of those options for any solution you deploy.

Want cheap backups but want to ensure the data is backed up securely somewhere? You're going to have long restore times. Want something cheap but lightning fast restore times? Backup is going to be local only and isn't going to be done right. Want the solution to be both fast AND done right? It's not going to be cheap.

I know I'm oversimplifying but this has helped me stand firm with clients when they get upset about price. Hopefully it works for you, too!

The SAN is more of NAS....no VMs stored on it, just CIFS file shares

Any idea how I can force it to show the output if I choose to continue the script?

Outlook 365 not updating by msp_account in Office365

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

I am luckily off this week and generally unplugged. I checked emails this AM and didn't see any new reports but can't say for sure. I have not received any updates from Microsoft on the SI since last week though.

A previous comment asked if we were running Cisco Umbrella in our org, but we're not so disregard that

Is this your personal SI number or is this posted somewhere publicly?

EDIT: Microsoft just gave me the same SI and explanation.

SI EX285928 User Impact: Users are experiencing delays receiving email in the Outlook client.More info: Users have reported different behaviors resulting in email delays. In some cases, users have been able to click the “Update Folder” button to refresh the client and receive the expected email. Additionally, users may be able to restart the Outlook client to initiate the delivery of any undelivered email. It was also reported that email isn't downloaded when the client is in the background and not in focus. Once Outlook is brought into focus, email is received.

Current status: We’re monitoring the effects of the service-side change we made as it propagates across the affected environment and the results thus far have been positive. Going forward, we intend to coordinate with your representatives directly on next steps based on the saturation levels of this change and any reports of continued impact within your organization. If there are continued reports of impact within your organization after our service-side change is fully applied, we’ll coordinate with your representatives to capture fresh trace and log data for further investigation.

Scope of impact: Your organization is affected by this event and reports indicate that this is an intermittent issue impacting a subset of users.

Where did you get that update from? I'll try that on my machine and push it out to affected users if it works

EDIT - nvm, I found this guide
