Might be able to do it with Salt + Foreman. Or you do Salt + an Elastic logging stack

Ansible can do that. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_domain_group_membership_module.html#win-domain-group-membership-module
You can add new PCs to domain, and change their group membership, you just need to know computer names in advance.

Which is just a layer on top of Powershell. The Active Directory Powershell module is still required.

It's not required, or that module is included already in Windows 10 by default. Because I haven't had to install it on any machine I managed with Ansible.

"win_domain_group_membership requires the ActiveDirectory PS module to be installed"
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/windows/win_domain_group_membership.ps1

They have it in the documentation as well "This must be run on a host that has the ActiveDirectory powershell module installed."

Millwright is another career change it suggests

My biggest annoyance so far is that LinkedIn itself shows me jobs for stuff like Walmart Associate

Do you have the word "associate" in your resume?

Lol, well I do, I guess I should have gone for the full MCSE after all. But it seems to me that there are so few LinkedIn job postings in a 200km radius of my location that they just list everything.

LinkedIn has been hugely successful for me. I've had recruiters from Google, Facebook, Amazon, F5 and may others reach out to me directly for roles. Turn on your setting Let recruiters know you’re open to opportunities and hopefully that should trigger a bunch of opportunities.

I did that, set as casually looking. Does setting as actively looking make a difference?

@scottalanmiller said in Not Using Huawei:

If they are actually doing this, likely it is one rogue engineer doing it because no one authorized him to buy what he wanted and no one is aware of it.

I didn't get the impression that they were approached by just one engineer, but it's not like I got all the details.

Huawei just sounds like a sketchy company. I've heard that they pirate GitLab Enterprise edition

So now we're judging a company based on how it's name sounds? IBM could be extremely "weird" sounding to the French - so what - they shouldn't buy anything from IBM because the name sounds weird/sketcky?

Ummm, that is not wht he said.

OK I ran with it a bit - but he did say "Huawei just sounds like a sketchy company." but didn't expand on what exactly he meant - be it the actual sound of their name, or things the company has been accused of.

If he was going for the accusing aspect - Scott has shot almost everything there down as FUD.

What I'm saying is that a company that pirates software and then tried to get official support for that software by promising/negotiating to pay for it sounds like a sketchy company.

Worth noting that the top Google result on this subject, is this thread already.

Now granted, you've been talking to GitLab people that normal people and news media would not get access to, but it's super unknown insider info (at this point, until this thread.)

I doubt it will ever become news, they were advised by another company that has dealt with Huawei before that either they should pursue things legally or just drop it, basically that the negotiation is just a ruse and they are unlikely to end up paying.

Since they're technically still a start up, I expect they would just drop it.
