Happiness Commando posted:If you had to choose between DHCP reservations and static IPs for printers, which would you choose and why? DHCP Reservations. Easier to keep track of and allows you to keep a semi-official record of their IPs.

Thanks Ants posted:The method that lets me change things around on the network without having to touch multiple devices. DHCP as a system of Natural Selection. I like it.

NevergirlsOFFICIAL posted:I do static IPs so that all my printers can be close to each other in IP range. How often are you guys changing printer IP addresses lmao. I never have to change them because DHCP reservations are MAC based and I have them on their own VLAN subnet.

Crowley posted:IIRC you can't even promote a server to DC if it's using DHCP. Usually Windows DC makes the DC's primary network controller static regardless of if it was running DHCP or not. It's one of the first things it does when you promote it to a DC.

wolrah posted:It tosses a warning during the promotion process saying one or more network interfaces are DHCP, but it doesn't make the change automatically or even pop up a dialog asking you to do it. I just did a fresh 2012 R2 DC in a VM to verify and it's happily running as DHCP. Maybe its a new thing with 2012, but 2k8 would not let you continue unless you setup a static for the DC NIC. Huh.

Just going to throw my support behind FreeNAS, as it supports both SMB and NFS mounts as well as Domain Controlled access.

Zakutambah posted:Come in this morning to file server issues: slow, remote access crapping out, general weirdness. Nothing too unusual with the old box though, usually just a bit over-taxed, have a look... that's a lot of accounts logged in running odd processes... why is the administrator account logged in... aw poo poo... Do the song and dance and disconnect completely from the internet. Go into full lockdown and start notifying customers NOW. Assume if he can get into that box, he can get into others.

MF_James posted:oh man I never saw this thread before, so here's an abridged version of a conversation I had with my favorite client. Been here, done that. Usually the other way around though. Usually I'm recommending the later part before the former happens, and then writing an "I-told-you-so" contract when I fix it for them.

Well, your drobo storage took a poo poo because, well I dunno, it's a black box and you refused to buy a support contract, luckily we get a free 30-day trial so I am working with them.
Thanks for all your help!
