Sorry to hear that byrona​ I really love VMware and now that we're doing NSX as well it'll be interesting. The strange thing is our Architecture people have decided to use Citrix VDI vs. VMware for some reason with vdesktops only... who knows??? That move i'm not sure is the best idea since everything else is VMware now.…

I completely agree... we don't need to stinkin' automate things for the sake of automating things.

Not sure what to say about this but it's probably a market that SW is ripe to gain in.

This usually means the answer is wrong.

Netflow is great stuff!

I'm a little concerned about maybe switching to O365 after hearing so many complaints from people here.

That's the best one...

Woohoo mini mission!!!

I skipped the turkey too... it was prime filets for me this year.

Funny thing about that... We do collection drives at work collecting small items, toiletries, etc. to send to the troops all the time. Lately I've seen a bunch of MilkBone Dog Biscuits being sent to the enlisted dogs in the field!!! Many are in Afghanistan and even Iraq still.

And Chewbacca just rocks!!!

I liked the linear regression article... One of my favorite math classes in CIS school was "discrete mathematics."

NetPath is really going to help with this!

I used 10.5 back then it was the old thwack too. Thanks to some people you don't hear as much about on thwack like @"tdanner" the guts of Orion has come a long long way from what it started as. It's night and day what we have now compared to back in the 10.x days. I sure don't miss the upgrades we had to do back then…

That's exactly what I wondering. The original Craftsman tools always had lifetime warranty.

Yeah I'd really like to fly on the last flying B-29! I discussed it with a friend we were considering it but it's not super cheap but would so awesome! I bet the P-51 ride at 400 MPH would be cool too though!

You aren't kidding... dang that was tough!

You gotta watch the order of false and true peeps! Also IDK if it's just me but the Online Backup announcement doesn't have anywhere on the page where you can register??? It says RSVP but for the life of me I can't find out where on the page: SolarWinds Backup LiveCast I don't see anywhere to register?

It does look similar... not gold but the shape is the same.

Firewalls have evolved... between the new -X ASA's, WAN routers with UCS blades running IPDS, and Palo Alto multi-function devices.

We are in the process of rolling out VMware NSX now so it'll be nice when it's really moving... also we just finally got our entire WAN onto MPLS.

Same with me @subraiden... question on 22nd blew it for me this month :^{

This was the key... the number of spaces in freeform wording in these types of questions... always count the spaces!

Whew! Pulling the trigger today 4/24 wasn't as easy as some days!

The shadow broker thing is really hard to understand... a lot of it doesn't make much sense at all. The checklists that are the best really are the STIG's. It doesn't get much better than that... if not that then Center for Internet Security checklists ie. CIS.

We need STIG support quarterly. We have had community support for NCM. It's a lot of work to maintain for users though.

I have ntp server device that runs off gps signals!

I totally agree with you jwhiteak​ Even the name "net neutrality" makes it sound like something that just has to be good right? I'm not so sure.

I hate to say it but I do think Free Speech is being censored by tech in California. It's not fair, it's not right, and yes I'm really getting tired enough of it that I think it's time break them up and regulate them.
