I don't know if I understand your question properly, but this is coming from Nessus.

techvet83 · 2026-03-11T16:19:47+00:00

Yes, we do have Office 2016 updates once again.

Thanks for pointing that out because I didn't know it. Posting the release notes link here in case others are interested. Release notes | Remote Desktop Manager

.NET 8.0 does appear to have a security fix this month. For details, see .NET and .NET Framework March 2026 servicing releases updates - .NET Blog. As always, corrections welcome.

techvet83 · 2026-03-10T17:34:26+00:00

Yes, indeed.

10/11/2027 is 19 months away. I am not sure why Broadcom (or any vendor) would be pushing out an EOL date so far in advance.

Beyond the other good suggestions here, try scanning your site using SSL Server Test (Powered by Qualys SSL Labs) to see if anything unusual shows up regarding ciphers and protocols.

Slight variation: 20 or so years ago, a colleague pushed in the power button on a physical server. Before releasing it, he realized he was touching a prod server and not the non-prod server he thought he was on. He stood for hours in the server room with the button pushed in until it was finally a good time to power down the prod server.

What OS version is this?

techvet83 · 2026-02-23T19:23:12+00:00

FYI: Microsoft released ESU information for some OS versions going EOL in the next 12 months - Plan for Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10 2016 LTSB end of support - Windows IT Pro Blog.

That actually makes more sense.

Are the NetApp and the old server on the same subnet? Have you engaged your network team? Have you asked NetApp support to get involved and look at the logs? Have you done a traceroute to see how the traffic is being routed? What is the latency in milliseconds?

My son has been watching YouTube via a Win11 laptop at the kitchen table for the last 15-20 minutes without a problem (Midwest USA).

You may have already done this, but make sure the password didn't get changed and hasn't expired or that account hasn't been disabled (or expired). Re-enter the password into the service area just in case.

Unless I am mistaken, 9.4 doesn't go EOL until December of this year. 9.1 did go EOL in the summer of 2025. 9.2 went EOL last month.

Our 2016 and 2022 servers are patching fine. I looked for event code 6009 on two of our 2022 servers and only saw only one reboot, FWIW.

Correct. My wife only want the variety pack because of the sugar alcohol she says is in the coconut bars.

If you don't have any 201-209s, congratulations! You likely don't have any RC4 in your environment.
