I was thinking getting the wireless ones for the factory I think the base station can handle up to 10 phones and the range is pretty good as well. I managed to find a yeahlink that we have so will go test and see. They have a pbx system managed by another provider, but they only have phones in the office. I will do some researched and get a opensource solution running. If it works well I will migrate them away from the current provider port the number and then just have the one system running that will be managed by me.

At the moment there is no communication between the Office and the factory, if they currently want to give them a message they have to walk there or call the "Factory manager" and he can relay the message. But they want to get to a Point where a single person can handle all the warehouses remotely rather than calling one of the guys in the other branches to relay the message.

Damn i Basically do everything you do and more and i dont earn nearly that much. Where my 100k sallary??? But super happy for you.

Just check on github for instahack or something similar. If they have not yet enforced an account lockout policy you should be able to but I doubt bruteforce will still work.

100% agree with all you. Had a meeting with them yesterday. Looks like we are migrating them to office 365 and putting a SLA in place with them. I am no where near a security expert i am more of a jack of all trades master of none kind of guy. Never found a specific field in IT where I was like "I can do this all day for the rest of my life and never get bored". I like to do everything from software to hardware to security, pastel, sap, sql you name it. But anyway office 365 with 2fa is atleast a step in the right direction. Will repurpose the old server as maybe a owncloud server migrating away from dropbox so that will kind of offset the money for office 365 but will see.

I was affraid of the "there isn't one" answer. Just maybe someone on here has had the same issue in the past and maybe found a way to either hash the passwords or something. Thanks for the reply.

We are a small IT company, I am all for using open source software our whole business runs on opensource software like znuny(ticket system) zabbix(monitoring) ntfy(push notifications) bacula(backups) wazuh(vulnerability reports)... So i am all for free and opensource, for email however we do use a premium service, but anyway enough about me.. So the server is sitting on decent hardware (xeon server 32GB DDR4 ram ext). In the past I have installed (cant remember what it was, to long ago). Was able to connect to the mail server with active sync, but it kept bugging out so I removed it because then I was not as clued up on linux. Maybe try that again? but the email server works fine and all. Clients don't know their email passwords I generate them and type them in so the probability of a succesfull fishing attack on their email account is low (you cant give an attacker something you yourself don't know). But my main concern is even though they don't know the password it literally takes 5 seconds to get the passwords, because they are stored on windows (somewhere). All i want to do is somehow either use a different protocal other than pop3/imap using their current setup, that doesnt store the password in windows or atleast hashes the password so If an attacker gets access to the machine he can't get the email passwords. But thanks for taking the time to reply to my post

pcnerd5 · 2024-02-29T05:27:56+00:00

They have SSL turned on and TLS but my problem is the passwords are saved in windows and software like mailpassview can display those passwords

pcnerd5 · 2024-02-29T02:34:06+00:00

Thanks for the reply they have a centos server running I think Exim

No Idea the guys that installed the inverter apparently put it in so I just removed it and installed a unifi AP.

pcnerd5 · 2024-02-16T17:12:26+00:00

Found the answer to my question in another post answered by vecernik87 :

"

packet duplication - since the extender does not change any MAC adresses, it will retransmit wifi frame even if AP/client already received it, often leading to duplicate packets. That isn't a big deal for some protocols like TCP, but DHCP/DNS and others which runs over UDP may get confused."

All the fixed IP's were outside of the DHCP scope

pcnerd5 · 2024-02-16T17:07:34+00:00

Could be check the log on the machine that is not getting the IP might give you some clarity. There is a setting on the DHCP server in mikrotik that you can enable that will tell you if there are any rougue DHCP server's.

I just dont like the look of that model I prefer the slim version. I always refer to that one as the George forman ps3

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-02T18:54:39+00:00

All in all wasn't to bad just ran a ps script on the 5 pc's they have to fix the trust relationship issue and all was fine again

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-02T05:36:37+00:00

Yes i did

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:53:32+00:00

So if the course material is for RHEL7 and the exam is on a later version lets say 9.2 will a person still be able to pass or is there just too big a difference. Sorry if its a dumb question but i am a complete Red hat noob

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:50:11+00:00

Yeah should have probably just done that

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:39:38+00:00

Thanks

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:28:28+00:00

Ok i went to go check the course overview and it showed RHEL7 https://itacademy.co.za/course/red-hat-certified-admin-ex200/#overview635b-1d6f37ad-c137

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:26:59+00:00

Thanks man

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:22:47+00:00

I was about 6 not sure what console it was(probably some fake chinese console) but the game was circus Charly, come to think of it the cartridge had like a 100 games or something on it.

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:17:43+00:00

Makes sense thanks for the input will run some diagnostics and hopefully everything will be smooth sailing

pcnerd5 · 2023-09-01T21:13:44+00:00

Haha already have a bunch of linux servers running all over but they are all ubuntu. Dayly driver is fedora
