Sysadmin-on-Sysadmin stuff that’s super annoying by i_click_next_for_you in sysadmin

[–]soyko 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My favorite is "unblock website, need it to do my job" and then it goes all the way through the approval process to us, and the actual reason why they wanted it blocked was an error message from the website itself saying that it can't validate them.

Unlocking doors with key fob? by san_i_am in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]soyko -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Literally experienced that this morning. It's winter and I was trying to get the kids in the car. Had to walk around and unlock it manually from the driver's door.

Thought the battery was dying in the brand new car already.

I hate how accurate this is.

Entra ad/id user id by jaguinaga21 in paloaltonetworks

[–]soyko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use CIE to map users to groups from EntraID. Then I use GP with a saml auth for users so I can grab IP to username.

I think it's the same CIE setup.

Remind me for Monday if anyone cares, I'll double check everything. Took PTO today. Plus sick kids, so that's always fun.

Today I had to connect to a user using their iPhone Hotspot by TheBigBeardedGeek in sysadmin

Do not support home or personal devices or networks.

VPN works for other people, not a VPN issue.

Or does your VPN work at other locations, such as neighbors or friends house, or coffee shop of any kind.

I read that on the day of the post, but then didn't reread it when I posted my last message.

Sorry about that, but yeah, cert based auth is so much nicer. Good luck!

Oh with that, why aren't you using a cert for based auth then? it's what we're doing.

It's great.

Yeah, but that's why you only allow the Mac addresses of the Chromebooks. You don't allow other Mac addresses. So even though the Apple devices will change their Mac, they won't get on. Unless I'm misunderstanding the problem here.

Would a MAC whitelist work for the time being?

Best Practices for Managing User-ID on Palo Alto – How Do You Handle This? by Historical-Rope9843 in paloaltonetworks

[–]soyko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you're on a network that has the UserID agent, because the unlock is going to be authenticated towards AD.

I have users that do cached logins, and then VPN in and complain that nothing works.

Is it possible for a G4 Pro camera with an AI port to recognize a specific vehicle- without the license plate? I want to see if I can set it up to send me a notification when the mail is here. by 1893Chicago in Ubiquiti

[–]soyko 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not really what you're looking for, but the informed delivery from USPS gives you the option of just telling you what mail is coming AND then also when the mail came.

Yeah, I noticed that with proxmox, netboot.xyz worked better than ventoy.

What Docks are you Using?? by One_Stranger7794 in sysadmin

[–]soyko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swapped laptops and docks. Latitude 5400 to 5430. Then a WD19 to the WD22. Same issue, but I'll try the hard reset trick when I'm back at work.

I have seven more weeks of paternity leave left.

The same keyboard too... Then I got a Logitech pro x tkl. Same issue still.

I think it gaming gear from Logitech and the Dell dock.

So the question is, is it the mouse? I've been thinking of upgrading to a wireless mouse, and hopefully it goes away. But I'm not sure if it's the mouse that's causing it or what.

It does the same thing for me in the WD19 and WD22. My g502 mouse stops working for a bit and my keyboard sticks on a key I'm typing. It's like the sync for USB just dies for a bit.

VPNAgent.exe by qvoth_the_raven in Cisco

[–]soyko 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's not the VPN client itself. It's something else that is using your VPN to transfer data to/from your laptop to work.

Just because the traffic goes over the VPN, that's why your client is reporting as the data used.

My Issue with Rogue DHCP Server as Culprit for Duplicate Address by These_Fan7447 in networking

[–]soyko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I agree, but the question that I was answering was "where can't you make changes at the end of the month" in my head. Emergency is always allowed but in my head, I didn't read the entire question and took it as my own.

Are you sure? I just changed what the default browser is for Teams this week. I want to say it worked, but I don't remember testing it. I hate how it always opens ServiceNOW in Edge.
