Or they could spray me with water thats to fast and hot and I could injure my turd cutter. This isnt the future I signed up for! That's why you need Smartpipe http://youtube.com/watch?v=DJklHwoYgBQ

I pulled the RAM from a testing laptop to diagnose a problem with one of our production laptops. Informed my team lead who has custody of the laptop so he wouldn't worry. Came in today and found an email from the idiot on my team who keeps starting poo poo with me telling the team that he had noticed the RAM had been "stolen" and that he had gone to the branch chief and they had filed a report with the Federal Police. I need a new job stat. PS: Yes, I already walked the RAM back over to the branch chief, told him that I had cleared this with the team lead, and he told me he'd be calling back the FPOs to cancel the manhunt currently underway.

Where the hell do you live and work that the police would "investigate" a missing stick of RAM? Do they send people to the gulag if they take a vga cable home with them by accident after a meeting too?

I kind of assume that firewalling will be handled by the ISP at that point, and the thing they shove in your house will just be a switch and access point. Obviously this relies on the ISP doing a competent job at picking their firewall vendor.

I know there are two kinds of NOC jobs. One where you just respond to stuff breaking, and one where you work on projects and stuff. How would I feel out which one of them is? I got a recruiter message for an overnight NOC job. I'm unlikely to be interested, but I have a friend doing overnight housekeeping at a nursing home while he's in school. The kind of NOC job where you aren't doing anything a good chunk of the night would be perfect for him, because he could study for his classes. And he'd be getting paid a lot more than he is now, without having to clean toilets.

They'd never do that, anyway. It would drive up their hardware requirements too much and would make them potentially liable for their customers' security.

The only time you need to escalate directly to police is if there's an actual emergency, like an employee is violent. Or child porn. Call the police immediately.

Last year I was out at a clients site and the CEO handed me his new Surface to configure his email. I get to the Metro screen and there are two pinned tabs right up front cycling through interracial and Asian porn photo galleries. I finished his email and handed it back. I went back a few days later and he gave it to me again, this time to install something. There were now 4 of them, and one of the pictures was a gaping rear end in a top hat. I was mostly just confused because I wasn't sure if he was testing me but I think I passed!

Anyone using Meraki gear found a good way to deploy the VPN profile in the small enterprise? The VPN client configuration can't be done in SCCM or via GPO from what I can tell (please tell me I'm missing something obvious). Otherwise I have a C# application I wrote using the DotRas SDK but I really don't want to deploy applications I wrote myself

Armistice was 1918, which effectively ended it, but reparations/etc were hashed out later (19), after propaganda ministries from all the players tried to blame others for the war. Paris 1919 is a great book if you're interested in it

The VPN client configuration can't be done in SCCM or via GPO from what I can tell (please tell me I'm missing something obvious). You can do this with group policy, assuming you're using the Windows VPN client. - You need to first create the VPN connection on your PC. - This will be stored under your profile here: %AppData%\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk - Copy that PBK file somewhere accessible on the network - Create a group policy to deploy this pbk file to: %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk I've also got this in my group policy but I'm not sure if this is necessary:

I explored this briefly, but unless it's hidden in the pbk file somewhere, it doesn't appear the PSK is saved in there? Otherwise this is the simplest option by far. Nowhere inside it do I see a PSK, Secret, or encrypted string of any sort. But hopefully I'm just missing it...
