I took this week off. My team just made a change and broke something. They don't realize it's broken yet. What they broke is a BIG deal and customers are drat sure going to let them know over the next 6 to 12 hours. Do I tell them? Decisions, decisions.

Alternatively, you tell them and they tell you to fix it since you are the one who caused it.

MLB.tv is the poo poo but their blackout rules are frustrating However, the fire TV doesn't work with this solution unless using Kodi, the native app uses some other (non-IP) geographical method (perhaps Amazon account address). Kodi either a charm though

Hungry Computer posted:I've never setup a 3040, but this is what I did in the BIOS Setup to get Win7 to install on newer Dell machines: Go to Secure Boot and set it to disabled, Then General > Advanced Boot Options and check "Enable Legacy Option ROMs", Save and reboot, enter Bios Setup again and change the Boot Sequence from UEFI to Legacy. That works for the OptiPlex 7040 and 9020, as well as the new Latitudes. No, damnit, you're going backwards. UEFI also happens to be necessary for Credential/Device Guard, if you ever want to implement that you'll need to wipe the devices again. Think of it as Dell saving you migration work down the line.

Hahahaha trust me I've tried to tell people around here about that. The problem is we're still using an old version of Altiris for image deployment that isn't compatible with UEFI or GPT partition tables, and moving to new things costs money/is scary. I did set up MDT as an alternative, but my boss decided to axe that project for ~reasons~. So now MDT is only used by me to keep my Win 10 reference image up to date.

Hey Cisco people; do any of you use the BE6000 line of VoiP? I'm needing to replace a super EOL UC560 and am being pointed in this direction. Looking for general opinion of what they cost and if they're any good while I wait for my rep to get back to me.

It's unfortunate but that's the reality. I dont know anyone who has gotten a successful workaround on this one. The plugin I use is from the eracknophobia (sp?) repo. I'll have to take a look tonight if you need more specifics.

Sorry recruiters out there, apparently I'm the guy that dicks you around just to get a better number to throw in front of the job I'm interviewing for that I really want. To be fair though this recruiter blind-messaged me on LinkedIn to offer a position out in Maryland (I'm in Illinois). I've already tacked on 10k + relocation reimbursement to achieve some astronomical number and she's still willing to spend the time to talk to me. These will make for some great numbers to throw out during salary negotiations next week at my second interview for a job I'm really excited for.

Having a weird Vpn issue. Intermittently, dns will stop working for Vpn clients. All other traffic is still fine, you an literally do everything else as long as you know the correct ip addresses. The only fix I have found is to just disconnect and reconnect, and it usually starts working correctly again. Any ideas?

I didn't look into it, and no one seemed to care when I brought it up, and I don't work at that place anymore. Now I work at a place where the DNS servers that the VPN client establishes have old DNS servers on it. Nslookup seems to indicate that dns traffic is just timing out.

I know we all love getting mad at Cisco for bugs but I just dealt with a nice whopper from Palo Alto. Didn't even touch the firewall - changed bgp config (not peering with affected unit) on another PA yet our local one stopped forwarding dhcp and udp traffic. After 6 hours of troubleshooting and debugging, turns out hardware acceleration bugged out and had to be disabled for traffic to return. When we re-enabled it crashed again. Had to reload.

What do you all use for system integration? Our systems are currently a clusterfuck of half-baked integration attempts, best case involving using SSIS to dump data from one database into a file on a share and another SSIS job to read it back into another database, worst case someone writes data into excel and saves it as csv which gets copied by a vbscript and imported into an application using a black box .exe written ten years ago with no source code available. There's quite a lot of data getting shuffled back and forth this way, and there's at least one incident daily where a file contains invalid data, everything falls apart like a stack of dominos and I have to spend an hour chasing down an errant invalid character or something stupid like that.

That's surprising, the 6500 is one of the most bullet proof devices cisco ever made. I've seen them sitting around for 14 years running catOS before a fan dies (which of course requires downtime because the someone ran the cables to both sides covering the fan module). There's probably more outages weekly caused by the POS that is the nexus brand than 6500 outages ever.

The Fool posted:Nslookup seems to indicate that dns traffic is just timing out. Well, nslookup just won't function if the DNS server isn't reachable. Which is weird because you're saying you can still ping devices with just their IPs. How many DCs do you have? Are all of these devices domain-joined? And when you say Windows do you mean just the native Windows VPN client? I had to google it - do you have a VPN set up on a machine on your network and you're doing port forwarding from a firewall or something by any chance?

Sheep posted:Also move SSH off port 22. By and large they don't bother port scanning addresses and checking responses, they just try all 4 billion IPv4 addresses on port 22 and then hammer the ones that respond. Can not echo this enough. If you can move a service off of common ports without impacting usability you cut the number of random scans in your logs down to basically zero. My older PBXes that listen on port 5060 usually have fail2ban lists a mile long, where the newer ones that listen on a random high port in many cases have never seen a real attack. I wish more client software supported SRV records, because they allow you to run a service on whatever arbitrary port you would like without having to provide anything more than a DNS name to your end users. VoIP phones and Minecraft are about 90% of the SRV usage I've seen in the real world. It's technically "security by obscurity" but that's not always a bad thing. Hiding works, as long as it's just stacked on top of your normal defenses.

Like VPN traffic being transmitted out of order, ports randomly disabling themselves... I remember some real good ones with the CCR and RB2011 You plug in a usb and the router shits itself. It wouldn't boot unless something was trying to PoE - turned out to be a lovely power supply. The IPSEC tunnel would get pissy and just drop all packets. You couldn't restore it until after you rebooted ALL of the endpoints.
