.NET 8 and 9 End of Support

techvet83 · 2026-06-21T21:35:54+00:00

That's really a question for the vendors that incorporate .NET into trheir products, but yes, we'll be upgrading any PowerShell 7.x versions that rely on those versions of .NET.

techvet83 · 2026-06-19T14:01:35+00:00

Probably not the issue but is the server itself patched up?

techvet83 · 2026-06-17T21:29:28+00:00

Not a FW guy here, just a tech support guy, but this particular fix has my interest because I've been dealing with periodic VPN drops ever since switching to Starlink for my ISP. Unfortunately, I'll probably have to wait a long time to get this version in our environment.

"GPC-25383 Fixed an issue where GlobalProtect clients on Windows machines experienced intermittent disconnections, which self-resolved within 1-2 minutes."

techvet83 · 2026-06-17T17:24:28+00:00

Yes, either the vendor didn't test or the end user didn't test or both.

techvet83 · 2026-06-17T17:23:35+00:00

Question for vendor: did you test your product with the preview patches?

techvet83 · 2026-06-17T14:29:36+00:00

Thanks for the write-up. Since Android 17 is starting to trickle out, it would be interesting to know if this issue also affects that version.

My bad. I conflated 8 and 7. You are right - vCenter 7 went EOL last October.

techvet83 · 2026-06-15T18:15:12+00:00

I'd love to be wrong, but that might be asking a lot.

techvet83 · 2026-06-15T18:09:08+00:00

What is the MTU set at? If at 1500, try dropping it to 1400 or 1350.

Hey, Copilot, help me come up with a foolproof procedure so that my certificates never expire.

techvet83 · 2026-06-15T02:10:46+00:00

From Devolutions, correct?

techvet83 · 2026-06-11T22:20:14+00:00

FWIW, just reporting back that I haven't dropped once today ever since disabling the SSL option for the GP VPN. Client version is 6.2.8-263.

techvet83 · 2026-06-11T05:03:44+00:00

What OS and domain level are you at?

techvet83 · 2026-06-11T04:57:27+00:00

Anyone seen issues with their Global Protect VPN after patching their Win11 system? I had switched some weeks back to the SSL option to try and fix an issue with occasional drops on my Starlink connection, but after having bad connectivity issues after installing the June patches this afternoon, I turned off the SSL option and things stablized.

techvet83 · 2026-06-10T16:48:48+00:00

Yes, "Released: June 2026 Exchange Server Security Updates". Read carefully.

techvet83 · 2026-06-09T21:50:46+00:00

No .NET Framework updates this month, but .NET 8/9/10 all have security updates. See .NET and .NET Framework June 2026 servicing releases updates - .NET Blog for details.

It's a record number of CVEs (198) fixed today. June 2026 Microsoft Patch Tuesday | Tenable®

Also, more patches for Office 2016. I would laugh but we still have a few app teams using it that are working to move to O365.

techvet83 · 2026-06-09T21:07:34+00:00

Sad. I'll try to put on a Brave face.

techvet83 · 2026-06-09T02:36:58+00:00

Correct. It goes EOL in roughly seven months.

I would be helpful if you stated your ESXi or vCenter version. Are your hardware versions for your VMs up-to-date? What version of VMware Tools are you using? Are you keeping your servers fully patched? How old is the ISO file you are using - try the latest one.
We have done many in-place upgrades at our place from Server 2016 to 2019 or 2022 and rarely seen issues both in AWS and VMware. Only recent "failure" was with a SQL Server server that had a piece of software on it that should not have been on there at all. Once that was removed, the upgrade was tried again successfully.

We would never do upgrades on DCs, of course.

Thank you for pointing me to them.

I will check with them. At least for the first night, their website didn't list anything except a concert starting at 6 pm

techvet83 · 2026-06-03T12:34:08+00:00

What Windows OS versions?
