My latest venture is going to be getting the CEHv9 cert. I got it approved to do through Stormwinds online training academy. I'm usually not a fan of online live training but this place sounds pretty good and it's not like it's cheap or anything. I think it's like $2500 give or take. Also since I'm a CISSP I got the new…

I gave up on Apple back in the early 90's. After being a long time apple supporter from the day I got my first Apple][+ computer with it's 6502 all the way up to the Mac IIfx with it's 68030. That's around when they lost me and I got a 386 PC.

We aren't either we just bought VMware NSX! Works great with all the vCloud Orchestration and stuff too!

exactly... the servers are the commodity. :^}

Yeah and trying to restore a DC from backup isn't trivial unless it's AD aware software.

I've heard the NSA charging station... I think they've had it at their kiosk for a while now.

I'm getting a blank white page on the appoptics hint link today. Ok IE was a no go but firefox worked fine. I had to refresh the page a few times for the video on the mini challenge today as well. At least once I got the video and today's hint in FF the questions were straight forward.

No way Bill won one! Nice wluther​ I can't remember it's Bill or Will... People call me both too.

Lol literal bug in the system!

The problem with question 6 is that many of the answers could be considered true... that never makes it easy because it's then which do they want.

We run all of our SolarWinds products in VM's on VMware... even the SQL Server for it and the noSQL NTA flow database.

Nice graphics thwack!

What's the video team all about? I suppose making those lab videos in the studio you have at the new place but how many of them are there? Is there some post production studio or something where they edit the video with some system?

Yep! Can't beat HAL.

Often storage systems don't get updated much unless there's a reason to I've found.

Hmmm... guess I missed it. Did anyone get an email that's what I want to know or who did? You can post here so we can see...

Office 365 shows that some types of public cloud applications can work well.

I saw some cabling people when they took the old heavy solid core bus and tag cables out they had cut them all up into foot long sections and made a pile of them by the door... I guarantee those ended up going to be sold at metal recycling place.

I signed up and never got any video link or email???

Mines still all black but that's pretty crazy looking. Reminds me of some Grateful Dead concerts.

This one was hard but Justice League FTW!

I guess that means I'm really old school then. So did I at home with the original: en.wikipedia.org/.../Magnavox_Odyssey The Magnavox Odyssey is the first commercial home video game console. The hardware was designed by a small team led by Ralph H. Baer at Sanders Associates, while Magnavox completed development and…

We've all done it before!

We have certain maintenance windows for specific types or groups of devices. IE. server or network Sunday when many changes take place during the same regularly scheduled time window every month. I'm glad we have growing options for dealing with maintenance periods.

Looks good! I can't wait until I get up to 12.1!

appstack + perfstack = pretty awesome!

I'm not sure how that camera works... ZINK... what's that really... I guess I need to google it??? No ink, no printer, is it really like the old poloroids? Well I did: Zink (technology) - Wikipedia It's a thermal printing solution with special paper that's patented. In case you were also wondering... here's the important…

In preparation for cyber Monday and the holiday season we upgrading our Orion to NPM 12.2 and related modules on all new W2K12R2 and SQL2016 on newly built brand new VM's! We've also moved our VM's off old Dell blade centers to all Cisco UCS! Both of these things are great but finally updating to the latest Orion modules…

For some reason edit stopped working for me... also start clicking in the red box critical memory. just figured it out it's only in FF for some reason... gotta check some settings I suppose. I got edit sorted by just switching rendering engines inside FF with IEtab. Not sure what changed that broke edit.

Or just install the windows agent on some windows machines at different locations and use them as the NetPath source.
