True, kwimmer, I have not been spammed because of a mission. This is a matter of principle: folks should not be punished simply because 1) they do not want to try a product, either because they don't need (or want) it or because they can't install it in their environment or whatever reason and 2) because they answer…

Earlier this year, our Meraki cloud dashboard decided that it needed a vacation and started randomly sending out notifications, which were anything from "Your license is expiring" to "Such and such switch has gone offline" (when it really hadn't). Bad part about the Meraki cloud is that we have no control over it. So, I…

You just never know what's going to trigger an EARWORM ALERT! Whether from the late, great Bob Marley or the little-known band of boys from Liverpool... The Beatles - We Can Work it Out - YouTube Thanks, oiram! You made my day with that one!

Oh, c'mon, Steven...and miss out on all the snarky fun? Remember: "The middle class take offense, even when none is intended. The world class NEVER take offense, even when it IS intended." - Steve Siebold, "The 177 Mental Toughness Secrets Of The World Class" While I agree that the comments have been a little, shall we…

It is said that cockroaches are able to withstand a nuclear holocaust...IOW, they don't die. Hence my reference to the Beatles famous tune...it don't wanna DIE! And, why I list it as an "earworm". Just have to add this:

And, BTW, my mind played the same trick on me and I got it wrong. That'll teach me to leap before I look!

petergwilson, in my view the hint suggests "both/and", not "either/or". Yes, you need to protect the "perimeter" (firewalls and other devices as well as "[...] outlying points of a network such as the PCs [...]") against intrusion. You ALSO need to protect the "endpoint" (servers/SANS/NAS's/Laptops) against intrusion. As…

Also interesting is the fact that nomenclature varies. I have always known the entity in question by a different name: CCB, or Change Control Board. Either way, I think there is a time and a place for everything but as petergwilson mentioned above, when you have the blind leading the deaf it can be a nightmare. I'm all…

You want a little cheese to go with that whine, Tom?

I can't tell you how many hard drives have gone Tango Uniform (yes, boys and girls, that is a "technical" term!) on me in my tenure at this company. While we have tried deploying various backup solutions - everything from batch scripts to automated programs - most of them require users to be somewhere OTHER than the field.…

I might argue with you on your last statement there, meyer837...there is another answer that does make sense and could be "as correct". It has to do with "making things bigger" (c.f. certain glands in female homo sapiens). When used in the context of "having been made greater in [...] value", then adding a performance…

True, yes, the other "answers" were, um, pretty obvious. And, Wendy, the problems were only with IE 11 that I saw...Chrome and Firefox were reported to work just fine with the video.

Well, that would be the reason there is nothing on the Web about Lula. I swear I was not on anything back then...and I'm from Colorado!!!

So the glossy on AppOptics today has the feel of some slick marketing to it. AppOptics provides real-time visibility into any application by collecting both high-fidelity metrics and detailed transaction traces. I whacked the Great Googly Moogly for "high-fidelity metrics", as I have never, never, never in my short-legged…

I guess I am confused as to what uniswtc and petergwilson are seeing. When I look at the list of 12 servers (VMs) and hover over each of them, the Machine Type(s) for all are different...but not one of them is "ESX Server". There are Windows 2012 Server, Windows 2016 Server, Centos, etc. Now, on the list of five hosts, I…

Hey, Jfrazier, have you seen this thread:Dark Theme In a Day ?

Come, now, Señor Rick! Hast thou been amongst the undead too long? Oh, wait...I...think...it's...another.... EARWORM ALERT!!! Puff Daddy ft.

I must presume that you watch "Triple 'D'" on Food Network! Great source for local haunts all over the country. Couple of neat stories related to the show: When we were in Hawai'i last year, we saw an episode about a local sushi place in Kihei, which was where we were staying. We checked it out and it was AWESOME! Miso…

Be very, VERY careful with Q13! "Exactness" is the key word for today. And, you have to do some digging. Told you wabbott would be sending a heater down the middle of the plate! Well played, Ms. Abbott! ;-)

So you and rschroeder bring bring up an interesting conundrum, jgherbert...a proverbial "chicken and egg" scenario, if you will. If one "Begins with the end in mind", as Stephen Covey would have us do, and the end is automation, what happens when dead ends, pitfalls, cliffs, etc. crop up along the way...DevOps and SDLC…

I've kept pretty quiet during all of this but I want to chime in here. Folks, I'm not going to be naive and say "Why can't we all just get along" but facts are facts. Whether you like it, agree with it, are angry with it or whatever, the fact remains that this forum was, is and always will be a marketing tool. For those…

Fitness tracker / watch (something besides Apple) More time to fly my R/C planes. More money to buy more R/C planes! Ability to instantly absorb training into my brain! The CCNA prep is whipping my behind. Invisalign (this lower left cuspid has been slowly, but surely, moving out of whack all my life and it's really…

On Q7, make sure you notice that the "word" they are looking for has four (4) characters...on my screen, anyway, the fourth underscore fell onto a new line and I almost missed it. At least I didn't screenshot the answer this time, melonizame...! ;-)

Nothing wrong with using the brain power, for sure, but sometimes the GEEKS just want to know if we can see the forest, not the grain of dust on the mite on the flea on the caterpillar eating the leaf on the tree...and I've told you all a bajillion times that I don't exaggerate! ;-)

Aye, Peter! A good coarse, stone-ground type is always my preference. You're correct in that the "yellow stuff" has no flavor at all. Give me a good English mustard on just about everything: pretzels, tube steaks, sammiches, you name it. Add a little honey for a sweet & spicy dip for veg, too. YUM! (Wait, can't use that…

Congrats to all the winners! Take 5 minutes, revel in the glory and then let's head on to the next mission...THWACK Monthly Mission - February 2019!

That's just another way of saying "mosey" and "sidle", there, grantallenby. Either way, definitely an "unhurried pace"!

Hard to tell with the puppydog mask on but my money is on Head Geek patrick.hubbard.

rschroeder, is there a particular reason that you do not allow SW to have RW on SNMP? If so, can you share what it is? Just curious about the methodology used there and if it might be applicable to others' environments.
