Oh I know. We have a KB for limiting it, and I'm really not sure why it's not limited by default considering that it's used only for sending the occasional alert message in most deployments and should never need more than 3 or so forks. It's still just minimizing the damage done, and doesn't change sendmail's stupid responses to problems.

I decided to try some Brother Thelonius to celebrate my YOTJ and my new USB bottle opener. Holy Christ this poo poo is strong.

poo poo not pissing me off: I YOTJ'd and this is my last day. Fortunately, my customers are all remote, so I was able to tell them my last day was ten days ago so that I could bring my coworkers up to speed behind the scenes and not have to worry about getting any tickets this week.

In retrospect I really wish I could've asked for another week before I started the new job to decompress, but it's okay, I'm still relatively young.

On topic, I love that we give devs an account with sudo root access to their systems so they can set up their software, but I still get called at 9PM on a Friday night because they suddenly remembered they needed a bunch of directories and NFS exports set up on their test system and had apparently forgotten how to do it themselves despite pasting the exact instructions into the ticket they sent us to request it. So far it seems all they've managed to do with their own root access is to give their jboss user sudo access to run any command as root without a password. :cripes:

If working for that guy would make you leave anyway, why not go for it and pick up the management experience? If you actually like it then great, if you don't and decide to leave in 6 months' time you'll have an easier time of it. It would be a difficult decision if there was an option to maintain the status quo but it sounds like that isn't on the table.

He is going to reply and say there have been delays caused by issues on my side and probably want more money for the extra wages he has had to incur etc etc

I'm going to reply and say the delays are because his staff are useless and before he asks for more money he can think about how he is going to get his work delivered on schedule

If you have it in writing, and the original time frame and rate was reasonable I don't think he has a legal leg to stand on and has to do what he says for the amount he said. I mean sure if you want to maintain a relationship or someone higher then you wants to work with them by all means renegotiate, but you can probably legally peg them to finish the job for the amount agreed upon, just not necessarily in the time frame you want.

Currently pissing me off is our lovely PBX software (3CX) that seems to change what handsets are flavour of the week based on the wind direction. If we bought the recommended handset brand then we'd be replacing them every 2 years as that seems to be how long these clowns can be bothered to write provisioning files that work for them for.

Their current complaint is that the values in Polycom provisioning files are case-sensitive, boo hoo cry me a river. How about you write values in the correct case then?

I wrongly thought that SIP phones were supposed to be a nice breath of fresh air from proprietary systems, it seems that's a load of poo poo and instead you have the freedom to buy your phones and PBX from different suppliers, so they can point fingers at each other when stuff doesn't work.

Are there any SIP PBXes that aren't awful and have a decently large supported base of phones, or are my options to mess around with Asterisk/FreePBX, or just buy a Panasonic PBX and a bunch of Panasonic phones?

If you go the Asterisk route you can use pretty much anything.

Right now I am trying to figure out a problem with a new firewall (Cisco ASA 5510) and my Asterisk based PBX (some custom thing that is out of date and we don't like the company we bought it from so we don't pay for their support anymore).
The issue I am seeing is that all my external phones are getting password errors when trying to talk to the PBX. If I swap back to the current one they log right back in.

The ASA5510 is running a copy of the config file from our current 5510. The only difference is that current working 5510 is running ASA Version 7.0(6) and the new one is running 7.2(2)19.

I assume something changed in the ASA versions that is interfering with it but I am not sure where to even start and Cisco's documentation is terrible to fond anything.

Remember, SIP is not a standard, but rather a set of recommendations. Different companies implement SIP in different ways. Sometimes the do it incorrectly, but other times the differences boil down to different opinions on how the RFC should be implemented.

Today I've been explaining to CSS guy why the styles should be flexible.

As, what are the benefits of doing

code:

.class

over

code:

h2.class

and why if I have:

code:

<p>bla</p><div>bla</div><span>foo</span>

(which is dynamic content), it's really better to create .class, rather than p.class, div.class, span.class, if .class makes the content for these things green.

I've spent half an hour on this.

It's only kind of related, but Cisco ASAs have a really hard time with H.323 prior to 8.2, and the "H.323 fixup" is best left deactivated. There might be a similar Application Layer Gateway in place for SIP that could be enabled/disabled for testing. From 8.2-8.3 it was best left on, and in 8.4 apparently its name has changed. Since SIP and H.323 are both used for voice and video telephony, hopefully this can help, though I mainly advise other companies' IT about this change, I haven't worked with the ASA platform directly. Other firewalls also have trouble when deep packet inspection is used on these protocols, like older SonicOS, Firebox prior to 10.0, etc.

What does your company use for antivirus? We're currently using Sophos but I'm pulling my hair out because it thinks that everything is some sort of trojan bent on taking over your computer. It's blocking WSUS and pushing packages over SCOM/Systems Manager from working. It's even been blocking Windows 7 SP1 and any updates to the Sophos program itself, constantly claiming everything's a trojan. I can't believe we pay a subscription fee to keep this thing around. :psyduck:

  inspect dns maximum-length 512 
  inspect ftp 
  inspect h323 h225 
  inspect h323 ras 
  inspect netbios 
  inspect rsh 
  inspect rtsp 
  inspect skinny 
  inspect sqlnet 
  inspect sunrpc 
  inspect tftp 
  inspect xdmcp 
  inspect pptp

Both configs have that same section and the older 7.0(6) version works fine with it.

I will try to remove the inspection for the 2 h323 entries and see if that helps.

What does your company use for antivirus? We're currently using Sophos but I'm pulling my hair out because it thinks that everything is some sort of trojan bent on taking over your computer. It's blocking WSUS and pushing packages over SCOM/Systems Manager from working. It's even been blocking Windows 7 SP1 and any updates to the Sophos program itself, constantly claiming everything's a trojan. I can't believe we pay a subscription fee to keep this thing around.

We have Sophos and it isn't nearly as bad as this. You have a subscription, did you contact their tech support? It sounds like your behavior monitoring is set to block anything suspicious and got tuned extremely tightly.
