Zero VGS posted:Cool, I'll do that. I'm on site working overtime right now because corporate sent us a domain controller that they refuse to give us remote or local login permissions to, they just totally black boxed it. So no one could access the domain today and the official corporate solution from their on-call sysadmin was for me to drive in and hold the Proliant's power button down for five seconds. ...and they didn't choose to deploy a RODC because????

Sonicwall Low end NSA $2,000 ish Sonicpoint (the "light touch, no fuss" AP) 300-500/each. Does require BASIC vlan configuration or a straight shot cable ran from the sonicpoint to the sonicwall. Its really heavily wizard driven so you dont have to do much.

We only started using them because we had de facto controllers everywhere already. the reboot on every configuration change is a bit annoying. Fortunately i'm not in there enough to an issue.

Saw this pop up on the patch management distribution list. Organization hit with the HIPAA justice stick Federal regulators are sending a powerful message about the importance of applying software patches by slapping an Alaska mental health services providers with a $150,000 HIPAA sanction. The Department of Health and Human Services' Office for Civil Rights says Anchorage Community Mental Health Services' failure to apply software patches contributed to a 2012 malware-related breach affecting more than 2,700 individuals. ACMHS is a five-facility, non-for-profit organization providing behavioral healthcare services to children, adults and families. The HIPAA settlement in the Alaska case marks the first time OCR has levied a penalty tied to unpatched software, which is not specifically addressed in the HIPAA Security Rule.

CLAM DOWN posted:2008 or 2008R2? And I'm not sure how that's possible, what you're saying doesn't make sense for a 2008R2 machine. PowerShell 2.0 is installed by default, if you mean 4.0 that's an 18MB patch for the WMF update, and the initial run of Windows updates on a fresh 2008R2 build takes a couple hours at most, not 2 days. And I can screenshot the OS disk usage if you'd like, 22.4GB. 2008 R2 updates, if applied over a long enough time, can bloat WinSxS. One of the last major things microsoft did to 2008 R2 was to allow cleanup. However its not without its downsides: It requires the Windows Desktop experience installed. Not ideal for hardened deployments.

Accountants are the absolute center of an user venn diagram: They're extremely smart, wealthy, and understand technology. They'll also accept their limitations with technology, which is refreshing. It's radically different to the poo poo flinging attitudes of lawyers or doctors.

Gyshall posted:"Who buys licenses from ebay?" - Some guy working at Zero VGS's office years down the road. They're pushing out two major update per year with the cloud based model, and the software isn't chained to a single desk that a conventional license is. That means the developer can work on a laptop and a workstation. Also: BSA don't care you bought it from ebay and you have a receipt to prove it. Should of bought through your VAR like a good enterprise employee.

My recent server refresh was 300k and that was just two hosts, san, and the software to run on it. That sounds pretty lean for how much hardware is there. You'll do fine. Just don't touch anything. Ever.

Sickening posted:Your company spent 300k on infrastructure yet won't setup a dedicated room? And honestly, there is no way I am sitting in a room with that kind of noise all day. We're moving next month and we're getting our own offices and a sweet NOC for expandability. We can't be in there anymore only because the dedicated AC unit is far louder than my servers. Its still a mix-use room (benches n' stuff), but only in there 30% of the time. e: If you think this is bad, the colo I rent out of has an actual company running out of it with employees working in their own faraday cage.

Thanks. Yeah, its the first one and i'm sure i'll expand on it but we're a fairly flat org, so no unique situations. Everything i've google'd up is tailored to those orgs. Just getting the basics down will help move forward. I know I'll need for for my developers (in house, consulting and offshore) but they're not in my or ops managers purview, so they can hog wild on their own flows.In house and offshore have two agile processes. incoherent fucked around with this message at 02:19 on Jun 8, 2015 |
