Xerox 7535 Slow Scan-to-Email sometimes with timeouts

$

Greetings,

Another day, another challenge :).

So last week we had to replace the following part on our WorkCentre 7535 "PWB Chassis Unit Board (Controller)" when the printer was delivered back lo and behold the config was wiped. Sadly there was no backup and I am having to rebuild as I go along, not the end of world just annoying.

So I have configured the SMTP settings correctly on the printer and I can get successful test messages and test scans from the printer but every now and then it will not scan the document to email and I get the error "Job Status: FAILED Failure transferring job to network server". That new board mentioned above? Seems to have been a new network control board because I also had change the MAC reservation on my DHCP server for the printer. The SMTP settings are pointing to smtp.gmail.com:465 and to make life...

Keeping a VDHX on one disk?

$

I have a non-production machine that they basically want a media/file server and a few other VMs.

On the host is a GUI server 2012. I have two disks that appear in Disk Management, a 512GB SSD where the OS is installed, and a 4TB disk (2 disks in RAID 1, in actuality). How do I get the RAID 1 to be a VDHX and only on that disk? I'd like to keep everything on the RAID 1 and nothing on the SSD. Is there anyway to do this from Hyper-V/host?

I've tried to point to that second drive, but it fails and says there's not enough space on the disk.

I've tried to do the pass-through, but the VM hung at "Hyper-V" screen for 2 days and nothing happened, so I don't know if I was still prepping the disk or....?

If I try to build out a new VDHX, it just uses the available space on the server from both disks? I wanted to keep everything on the RAID 1,...

LDAP error

So, I'm seeing mixed information at some other places I've looked, but I was curious as to everyone's opinion as to whether or not this is even something I should be concerned about. I'm seeing this error in event viewer every 24 hours:

"During the previous 24 hour period, some clients attempted to perform LDAP binds that were either:
(1) A SASL (Negotiate, Kerberos, NTLM, or Digest) LDAP bind that did not request signing (integrity validation), or
(2) A LDAP simple bind that was performed on a clear text (non-SSL/TLS-encrypted) connection

This directory server is not currently configured to reject such binds. The security of this directory server can be significantly enhanced by configuring the server to reject such binds. For more details and information on how to make this configuration change to the server, please see ...

Calendar Signage system

Hi All,

Looking for some recommendations for displaying a shared exchange calendar on our televisions throughout the office, it would contain upcoming events and be managed by one department.

Looking for something that just has a nice design and is straight forward to setup, we have spare desktops in the office so utilizing one of those would be ideal, I've looked online and most options I have found entail installing a box / paying a monthly subscription etc..

Open source is preferable but paid is also an option for us once the price isn't insane.

All suggestions appreciated.

Tagged in general support but if there is a better location please move.

Cheers,

Ryan

I am looking at a way to work out the average response time for our tickets.

Currently, when we assign a ticket to a user in our team, this creates a public response. What i want to be able to track is when we first send out an actual response to the enquirer.

Any help on how this could be done would be much appreciated.

Thanks

How to avoid using my computer as a "Middle Man" when transfering files.

I'm a workstation tech at the company I work for. We are going to be refreshing a ton of computers is a very short order and we have decided to use USMT to help with that. I'm modifying my current script so that I can do all of the workstations at the same time.

Please take a look at my code below. I thought that if I wrote it this way, that I could avoid using my machine as a middle man but that appears to not be the case. I do know that I can use the InDisconnectedSession switch but I need to make sure that the transfer happen before my script goes on to the next line. This is just a small snip-it of my script.

SBS 2011 migration to Win Srv 2016 hardware / license / backup

Hello,

I need to reinstall an old SBS 2011 to a new on premises system.

Mail was moved to Office 365.

We just use the server for an ERP, a few app including office / Outlook.

Could you let me know if the below make sense ? I have evaluated a full cloud solution and even tough it has some advantages, the TCO over 5 years (yes, we'll keep the solution for at least 5-6 years) is way below the full cloud / Monthly fee only. In our case, the full cloud is about 2 times more expensive.

SERVER:

HP DL480 Gen 9 8 core Renew 2609v3 / 48Gb Ram/ P440AR Raid / HBA with Battery

VM Datastore 1: 2x480 GB SSD Raid 1 for Data (found good deal on those)

VM Datastore 2: 2x 1,8 TB SAS 10K for Applications / Data

All the rest can be reused from the old system (Rack, UPS, Switch, updated has...)

SOFTWARE

Vsphere Essentials (installed on SD Card HP 32 GB)

Connecting Laptop to Printer

Hi guys,

for some reason, we have one laptop that doesn't seem to connect to the printer (Brother HL-3170CDW). All other laptops can print with it fine, but for some reason this laptop shows the printer as offline.

Do you guys know of any solution that is low-cost and time-efficient (read: fast. lol) to help a rookie out?


redirecting DNS

$

Guys, I have a question I think I know the answer for but I would like some reassurance, maybe from someone who did it.

Here is the situation - I have a number of devices coming to my network for DNS through firewall. My internal DNS ip is about to change. Instead of reconfiguring all of these devices, I would like to configure my firewall to pass the DNS queries to the new DNS ip address.

I'm pretty confident it can be done on every, fairly advanced firewall. What do you think ? What would be the method / terminology involved (just so I can start searching for it).

I think it could be done either by telling firewall to pass the queries to a new IP or configuring firewall to actually respond to these dns queries.

Thanks

Use Bitlocker TPM for laptop

$

0

We have several Dell company laptops with TPMs, Windows 10. What's installed/enabled now is the Dell Security Manager (boot password protected hard drive) and Bitlocker encryption via the TPMs.I'm reading that if you forget your Dell password, you can use a Dell program to recover it on the device. This is much less secure than Bitlocker, of course. It's not encryption, and it's got a workaround.

Because Bitlocker uses the TPM in our machines to unlock the encryption, this would be good if the hard drive gets stolen. But this would be useless if the whole device gets stolen, right? (Which would be most likely because of the nature of laptops.) If someone Boots up the machine, the TPM authenticates and unlocks the drive, and the unauthorized person can use software to create a local admin account and access the unlocked drive.

My question...
