I'll one-up that. We're legally required to keep all transaction data for 10 years. Our main system doesn't have a function to aggregate or export historical data to colder storage. When calculating risks, trends etc it uses ALL available data, even though any data older than about 12 months is pretty much irrelevant for the calculations. Those calculations now take approximately 3 hours to run.

Save the important data, then flatten and reinstall the computer and tell him not to be a dumbass again.

If it's just for yourself, KeePass. If it's for a group where you want auditing of who checks out which password etc, please tell me when you find a solution that isn't thousands of dollars and/or awful.

NevergirlsOFFICIAL posted:have you looked at 1password for teams? It is obnoxiously a subscription service for no good reason but it's only like :4bux:/user/mo. I don't have the team version but I use it personally and sync passwords between my computer and phone over the WLAN, works great.

You probably want to look into switching over to 5Ghz where possible as well. The 2.4Ghz band is ridiculously crowded while 5Ghz is a bit more roomy for now. Even in my residential area 2.4Ghz is practically unusable.

Just wait for the inevitable user who locks their AD account out after too many failed passwords and decides to go get a coffee "while it sorts itself out" and can't get back into their office. I realize the system probably differentiates between a disabled and a locked account, but it's a funny thought.

I've seen people recommend Secret Server in the past, but I haven't tried it myself yet.

Build a new server, add it to your DFS domain, set it up as a replica target of the old server. Once everything is replicated, set the new server as the primary and nuke the old one. Edit: ^ Or that. ^

How much does your data change? Would it be possible to only do incremental backups?
