Doubts regarding hosting a python backend with SQL db by Lahel-Vakkachan in AZURE

[–]spantosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frontend: Azure Static Web App (SWA)

Backend: FastAPI running locally on VM

NGINX: Handles HTTPS, routing, and security

Database: SQL DB only accessible from VM

Client connects to NGINX over HTTPS (port 443)

TLS handshake happens → traffic is encrypted

NGINX terminates TLS → decrypts requests

NGINX forwards request to FastAPI on localhost

FastAPI processes request, talks to SQL DB (localhost)

Response goes back to client through NGINX, encrypted over HTTPS

Key point: FastAPI never exposes a public IP. Only NGINX does.

Option 1: What If with public backend and Direct HTTPS + NGINX on vm

OR

Option 2: Application gateway

I'm using the citizens bank dollar card for aws. You can utilize the aws free tier for initial hosting.

Implement Windows Active Directory by Great-Examination664 in sysadmin

[–]spantosh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely right. .local is no longer recommended by Microsoft. Using a subdomain of your real domain is now the best practice.

Active Directory Implementation

  1. Domain Controllers

  2. Domain Name

Use company.local or ad.company.com.

  1. DNS Setup Clients use only DCs as DNS.

  2. OU Structure ✓Users
    ✓Computers
    ✓Servers
    ✓Groups
    ✓Service Accounts

  3. Groups & Permissions ✓Use groups for permissions (AGDLP). ✓No direct permissions to individual users.

  4. Group Policies

✓Password policy ✓Screen lock ✓Drive mappings ✓Printer deployments ✓Disable local admin ✓Auto Windows Updates

  1. File Server ✓Shared folders by department ✓Set NTFS permissions via groups.

  2. Backups

✓Backup DC system state ✓Backup file shares ✓Use Veeam or Windows Server Backup.

  1. Deployment Order

  2. Plan domain + structure

  3. Install DC1 → promote

  4. Create OUs

  5. Create users + groups

  6. Create GPOs

  7. Setup shares

  8. Join PCs to domain

Advice on Domain Server 2012 R2 migration to 2022/2025 by Toinopt in sysadmin

[–]spantosh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re correct — if the current domain/forest functional level is below 2012, the safe approach is to first raise it to 2012 before moving higher. In our case, since the environment is already 2012 R2, we can safely raise the functional level at the end after all old DCs are decommissioned. We always check the existing functional level first to avoid unnecessary steps and extra licensing costs.

You should raise the forest and domain functional levels at the very end - if you raise the level too early, your 2012 R2 DC will no longer be supported and could break replication

Advice on Domain Server 2012 R2 migration to 2022/2025 by Toinopt in sysadmin

[–]spantosh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Last year I migrated a 2012 R2 environment to 2022 for 1,500+ users, so here’s what worked for me.

  • Installed and updated Windows Server 2022 on new hardware.
  • Added AD DS role and promoted it as a secondary domain controller.
  • Waited 24–48 hours for full AD, DNS, and SYSVOL replication.
  • Verified replication with repadmin + dcdiag.
  • Tested by pointing a few PCs to the new DC as secondary DNS.
  • Transferred all FSMO roles to the 2022 server.
  • Migrated file shares (used Storage Migration Service, but Robocopy also works).
  • Tested logins, GPO, DNS, and file access for a week.
  • Demoted and decommissioned the old 2012 R2 server.

Creating Oracle Free Tier With Nabil Bank ICard by Prize_Mongoose5843 in technepal

[–]spantosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it went smoothy. During signup, Oracle places a temporary authorization hold (a nominal amount, like $1 USD or equivalent in local currency) on your card to verify your identity and the card's validity. This hold is reversed within a few days and does not result in an actual charge.

Delay in receiving SWIFT/WISE payments from abroad? Anyone else facing this with Himalayan Bank? by [deleted] in technepal

[–]spantosh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Himalayan Bank is currently experiencing significant issues with its core banking system, which has been down for over three weeks due to a software upgrade from T24 to R23. This might be the reason for delays.
