      @Dashrender said in Install Windows as a Dual Boot after Fedora:

      have you tried it yet? I wonder if Windows installer understands grub and updates it automatically, like most linux distros have done to the windows boot loader for ages....

      Windows puked, but I kicked it off and went to talk to my wife. Came back to a boot into recovery mode.

      So I'm validating my local backup while I get some more work completed then I will try again.

      @Dashrender said in Cannot install Windows updates Help Please!:

      This has been the biggest hold for me getting anything newer than 1909 on many devices - that said, I just don't get the option to install anything newer through Windows Updates

      I've seen that, too.

      @DustinB3403 said in Active Directory - User Attribute RFID/HID Badge:

      @Dashrender I'm a 3rd party to the end customer here. Acting as the middle man as the customer's IT department wanted to engage outside support to try and vet different products.

      I candidly told the customer that while this product will work, it won't work with all of the features they want without some substantial changes to their infrastructure and that the support (at least from this vendor) is pretty awful.

      The simple approach here is to not integrate RFID/HID's to the system and simply use the AD Integration with the built-in QR codes that each member is assigned.

      Just because something may be supported, doesn't imply that it is support.

      Except in this case the vendor very clearly has stated they support you adding custom attributes within AD.

      Besides a comport setting difference (which isn't relevant) I can't see a difference.

      The right hand side is the one that works.

      For some reason, it would not downgrade like normal within chocolatey

      So I did an uninstall, reinstall of version 1.4.6, then pinned version 1.4.6 so it will not upgrade when the daily task fires that uprgades all packages.

      choco uninstall zerotier-one -y choco install zerotier-one --version=1.4.6 -y choco pin add -n=zerotier-one

      Of course I did it all via ScreenConnect.

      My MeshCentral VM is in Vultr.

      Same here. Way better than AWS, Azure, or GCP for standard workloads like this.

      Just for home use, it could likely sit in a free AWS Lightsail instance if it is small enough.

      @DustinB3403 said in Unifi Controller - Reinstall and adopt APs:

      @travisdh1 Yeah I'm thinking what happened is someone setup a Unifi Controller on windows at some point, then they engaged us and said yeah we don't have access to the AP's but its all still working. So they were sold a physical cloud key, and still the AP's weren't adopted.

      Assuming you're at an MSP now, do you host a controller that you could just build a new site for and adopt the APs too?

      This is what @Bundy-Associates and @NTG do.

      That is the plan, but for now this is just janitorial work.

      @scottalanmiller said in Changing Installation Location for MicroSIP Installed via Chocolatey:

      By default, installing MicroSIP using Chocolatey causes the install to go to an inappropriate data folder location and is only available for the admin installing user, rather than for the end users of the Windows system. Does anyone have any experience or ideas in changing the installation location so that system users can actually use MicroSIP when installed and maintained using choco?

      Asking for @Dashrender and @romo as well.

      I think this might work:
      choco install microsip -ia "'/D=C:\SomeDirectory'"

      choco install microsip -ia "'/D=C:\temp'"

      Did install it to C:\temp for me

      Is it working for non-admin users?

      Yep, I can run the .exe from my C:\temp. You'll probably have to create a shortcut for a user tho.

      yep, I just tried it - I pushed to c:\program files\microsip

      and non admins can run it.

      and you're right, the shortcut is put on the installing admin's desktop, and nothing in the start menu.

      MicroSIP - open source portable SIP softphone based on PJSIP stack for Windows OS.

      https://www.microsip.org/

      It says right on the website it’s a portable app, why would you expect a desktop icon or anything on the start menu?

      There is a portable version, sure. But there is also a non-portable version.

      Sorted this out.
      For some reason the install was setting Allow Global IP and Allow Default Route.
      Once I unticked these and ticked All Managed IP it all began working.

      @Dashrender said in Windows Domain routing question - dual-nic:

      Though - if you have a second layer network like this, you'll need to inform your external router on the internal networks and how to route them.

      Routing to the internet is mostly just a nice to have.

      @Grey said in Issues uninstalling Windows Server 2012 R2 Key:

      You mean sfc /scannow? Or DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth?

      @op Check your event logs for more information, and try running the commands above.

      Ran both, so far nothing, but I will run chkdsk tonight to see if that fixes anything. So far I can't find anything in the logs but I'll keep looking.
