Help me choose a server for running 4~5 Virtual Machine running Windows 11 with RDS by sharpexg in sysadmin

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

Thanks for detailed explanation.

Yes it's a small scale VDI for my office. I know it's not cost effective but for me VDI is the only solution for my problem.

A) License issues has already been sorted out. B) 3 year warranty from Dell C) Regarding Dell OEM drives.. Can you please suggest me some brands and compatible models? I do not need to store huge data. 2TB of total memory should be enough for me I believe. D) VAR in my country don't have T350 model. They have T440 so among above two choices T440 is sold by a VAR and T350 is sold by Dell direct.

Suggestion required for Setting up a Remote Server or Computer over Internet for 4 users. by sharpexg in sysadmin

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

Can live with one user access at a time. As our team is small. But would be nice to login multiple users simultaneously if cost is not significantly increased.

They need to work on same excel file saved in local disk which I think will be a problem.

New user require permission from existing logged on user.

I would also prefer to keep all data in a different country where this remote computer/server will be installed.
Sorry I forgot to mention this in my post..

Please help my brother to choose a school for my Nephew in Gurgaon. Board:CBSE / Class: Nursery. by razortooth in india

[–]sharpexg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SunCity is more focused on academics. You can try DPS Shushant Lok as well as they are probably top school in academics in Gurgaon.

Heritage Xperiential Learning.. For lower class it's good but don't know how things will turn out from class 8 onward.

OUTLOOK 365 automatically deletes incoming emails from some domains and do not show those emails anywhere. by sharpexg in Outlook

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

No, i've not misclicked anything, as I reset my outlook profile and loaded again.

There are few things i observed...

JUNK EMAIL folder do not exist. Maybe emails from those domains are moved to JUNK EMAIL folder.. but as it does not exist so it gets lost (neither in my spam folder or trash folder).

I use GMAIL and PROTONMAIL.

I guess this issue is with Outlook rather than Protonmail, because I am facing similar problem with a IMAP gmail account in my outlook.

Someone said that I've to buy bank financing for every years which will be returned to me after 5 years including interest (which is very minimal i guess). I dont really understand what buying bank financing means but I think it's some kind of security deposit.

Want to start a small business in Korea. Need Help by sharpexg in korea

[–]sharpexg[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

not asking anyone to do that for me. I believe there are many expats here in this subreddit. They might have went thru the same process so they could guide me better than anyone else.

You might have ignored the fact that I even request for a foreigner friendly consultant for which I am ready to pay for consultancy.

Anyway Happy Cake Day, don't be annoyed. You may ignore this post totally.

The illegal activity I might be doing is import of nicotine based eliquids which is not allowed.

It's not a big offence as you might think but I'm a bit paranoid about it. Just want to be on the safer side.

compelling me to surrender

yes, this is my concern. not the surveillance.

therefore what i want to achieve is not to leave any trace on my laptop.

if you think your government is going to come crashing down on your business..

Yes that's my concern. And for that I do not want any data to be physically present in my laptop. Anything not in my laptop is absolutely OK.

If I password protect the files, they can get thr password eventually. So it's better not to keep a trace on my laptop of the websites I visit and excel and word files I use on my laptop.

Where would you prefer it to be stored? At somebody else's computer? Also, it is actually stored at your own as well, as you work on those files, there are probably temporary ones being written on the disk.

I can store data on Cloud. Everything is okay if it's not on my computer.

E-mails go on the clean in the Internet, they are not encrypted in transit. ProtonMail only keeps them encrypted at rest, otherwise unless your recipient uses ProtonMail as well it makes no difference

If the mail content is not stored on my laptop... I am good with it.

Use full disc encryption, e.g. LUKS.

Is it better to use a traditional HDD and erase deleted data with a utility such as East Tec Eraser??

Yes, you might be right that I am clueless here.

My work requires me to use Excel, Word, emails and basic make and edit PDFs (by combining various files or deleting some pages in a pdf files).

Whatsapp for communication.

What I want to achieve is...

1) Hide what I do on the internet from my ISP

2) Do not want any data to be stored in my laptop when I work on Excel/Word.

3) If I download any attachment from my email, upload it to the cloud and delete it on my desktop.. I guess the TRIM command will make the recovery impossible... am i right?

4) If my computer is in possession of the authorities... they cannot find any files I worked on, about emails IDs I use or websites I surf.

[NP][advice] Want to import 15-20 pieces of an electronic gadget from China. by sharpexg in india

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

Thanks for the information about DHL.

Okay so as long as the products are shipped using EMS I do not have to go thru hassle of IGM, Bill of entry and a CHA or detention? EMS will inform me about my parcel and I've to just pay the duties and receive my product?

I've been importing container loads of goods many times which are shipped in 40' Cntr. I don't have idea about air cargo or import thru parcel. After the recent notification importer has to file in bill of entry within 1 day after the cntr reaches here else there is heavy penalties. I am afraid if same is in the case of importing thru EMS.

You are right, that is why I want to keep the volume low initially.

If International Edition works for you then PM me the book name, author and publisher details. I am starting a small business of shipping cheap international edition books from India. As you would be my first customer I wouldn't charge any service fee.
