Most of the ones I connect to have a CLI I ssh into which is vastly superior to use ( Motorola  I managed to get into it with SSH and I don't even think the network guy knows/cares about doing that, but the browser interface has been fighting me like crazy. No, I MUST have Java 1.47 or something, nothing else will do. gently caress Java. I don't know what to do with the SSH interface honestly, so I'm going to leave it alone. It's only the public SSID acting up, so I don't really care.

Given the way BB suits are cut, the crowd that usually wears cargo pants fits perfectly. Go with suitsupply if you want a modern looking suit and you're not fat

Thanks Ants posted:I was laughing until it got to the bit about a 12 hour day being so normal that it wasn't even a thing to ever mention and then To be fair it technically says "12 hour days are for wimps". They're right. If you can't stand up to your boss and enforce a work/life balance then you're a wimp.

skooma512 posted:Motorola Based on the browser error you describe, it sounds like it's running WING4 and you're better off using the GUI. WING4 is nearing EOL if I recall, and while it works it's like a child's toy compared to WING 5. I'll see if I can pull up the JVM settings I needed to get it to work (for the certificate thing). If you still have support and are not using old APs like AP300s or AP5131s you can probably do an upgrade from 4 to 5. Takes a little planning, since the configuration is much different. And technically, it's Zebra now  Motorola is almost all gone. Mobile and home products division sold off a few years ago and the Enterprise Solutions (all things WiFi) was just sold to Zebra right around Oct-Nov last year. What remains is government and public safety (radio systems), and their stock just went up about $2 over the weekend after they said they're cutting that up and putting it up for sale. They got gutted by several mobile phone flops in a row (never recaptured that RAZR mojo) and could never recover.

poo poo that pisses me off: Aruba VisualRF Plan. Its rotting corpse is a crime against humanity made of Adobe Flash and Java. When you launch it in compatibility mode it will actually launch in an IE browser window and while accepting any picture or document format as a valid floorplan any file bigger than 2MB will make it poo poo itself. I'm pretty sure the heatmaps for wifi it generates are as reliable as the nigerian princes that email me with great opportunities.

F:\UserDATA\NAME\can del after 10 days'\NAME Backup Nov 2008 by NAME\NAME Backup\c\Lotus\Notes\nminder.exe (yes all the NAME's are the same person) Everything about that is amazing. I've been trying to get a guy to delete all traces of nminder.exe off the network because it's loving up a bunch of reports. He says it's done, I spent exactly one second looking at a machine in question and see this wonderful result. I'd kill it myself if I could actually get to the machine in question, but instead I have to email someone half way round the world and tell them to do it.

HR Lady came down, took my AS/400 guy (old geezer) to setup a VCR in the conference room so everyone can be subjected to this terrible 1980's Management/Marketing VHS tape collection. Of course he's a moron and can't set it up, so after a half hour she comes in to get my helpdesk guy to do it. Ugh.

Given the types of clients and how much secrecy he purports to need, it sounds like he needs somebody to do a bunch of illegal/questionably legal stuff. Maybe I'm just not in the know about job postings in NYC these days but it seems like i fyou're gonna get your rear end in trouble with the law while wearing an over-expensive suit that you should be paid a whole heal of a lot more. You should apply and if you manage a phone/irl interview the very first question you should ask is if they're gonna buy the suit for you.

Jim kept saying it's got red and white I kept telling him that red and white is for audio it does't have the yellow video port. They were trying to use RCA cables and told the HR lady to find an older TV. She's been on my rear end lately so I dug around and found a cable, old guy tried to steal it from me.

nitrogen posted:Really need to We have a customer who can't do things for themselves without causing problems, don't want to pay for a support contract, and don't want to pay the hourly rate for customers who aren't covered by a contract. I mean you'd think this isn't a problem since that makes them not a customer and therefore not our responsibility, but now throw a company director who hates to 'lose a sale' into the mix and it gets really interesting. I think the current plan is to just support them in the hope they will sign a contract, which is causing our helpdesk team to drink heavily.

mewse posted:Why would you EVER run DHCP from your windows server, that's insane I can't tell if this was a sarcastic post referencing the last slapfight we all had about this when we told Zero VGS he was an idiot for running DHCP on the routers, or whether you seriously meant this and we should have the slapfight again. Either way: --DHCP on routers - basically hidden from view unless you're on the network team (so your server team has no visibility into leases etc), need another entire router for redundancy --Server 2012 R2 DHCP + failover - piece of cake to set up, run on separate VMs on separate VM hosts for redundancy, ties into AD DNS nicely, even helpdesk can have visibility into it depending on how you set things up, if you're already running AD there's basically no reason to add more complexity by having the DHCP piece on completely separate expensive machines --fighting about this on an internet forum: we're all idiots for continuing this derail

Dear all, Stop making windows vm's with system drives that are too large. No, they don't need to be more than 60 gigs. Yes, Seperate data drives make more sense. Yes, it does matter. My boss decided to setup a vm today on his own (bored i guess?) and made the system drive 500 gigs. It doesn't break 96% used. Guess which sets of drives he wants this on? If you guessed the fastest we have, you guessed right.
