  1. Easy. Invoke-Command -ComputerName FQDNOfTarget -FilePath \\YourNetworkDrive\Script.ps1
  2. Looks like the battery pack for the controller.
  3. The sensitivity is shown numerical here: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse] "MouseSpeed"="0"
  4. Not only performance wise but you'd have to think about the energy costs aswell. G3 is ancient. We are up to G10 currently.
  5. Usually Media Converter are nothing but switches with an SFP and a RJ45 port. You just need a multimode sfp module compatible with the converter.
  6. I don't know what the other guys here are talking about but if it's regular old fibre you just need an PCI-E Card for an "SFP" port and and a fitting SFP module (falsely known as a GBIC), either single mode or multimode.
  7. No it's not. Having Steam work partially is resulting in either somebody chosing an option to include it, potentially stifling innovation, or people demanding support for it, both of which cost ressources. It's the smart decision to flat out tell people "You are using an outdated, unsecure system. Stop it. We won't support it."
  8. Because that's totally the reason why they stopped supporting it and not the fact that they'd have to dedicate ressources to supporting a depcreated OS nobody should be using anywhere anyways anymore. You do realize that on XP machines just visiting websites get you infected? No need to download anything or opening any files. And (yes I am channeling the WAN show here) this could make you one of the nodes in a Botnet attacking other people.
  9. You don't simply "give it an hdd/ssd". You create a .vhdx on an existing drive.
  10. $SmtpFrom = "YourServer <YourServer@domain.tld>" $SmtpRecipient = "Lastname, Firstname <YourMailAddress@domain.tld>" $SmtpServer = "your.mail.server" $SmtpPort = 587 $SmtpSubject = "Reboot has occured" $SmtpBody = "The machine " + $env:computername + " has rebooted." Send-MailMessage -From $SmtpFrom -To $SmtpRecipient -SmtpServer $SmtpServer -Subject $SmtpSubject -Body $SmtpBody -Port $SmtpPort -encoding ([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8) Save as a .ps1, put it somewhere on the server, create a new task schedular task to run this upon boot
  11. Is this a joke? We are running 4*Dual Socket Xeon with 128GB RAM for around 50 users each. You'd need around $10k to build this (rough guesstimate)
  12. There are a ton of new Windows/MacOSX/Linux vulnerabilities regularly. That's why you have to update your systems.
  13. Traceroute is Ping with a decreasing TTL
  14. What are you trying to ping?
  15. Why in the world would you do this? According to some post somewhere (I am not gonna check that on any of our Exchange Servers): Source
  16. Go get Office365. Like yesterday. Setting up an Exchange Server isn't done lightly.
  17. Sounds like a job for GPOs if you are in an active directory environment power.cfg -s 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c Save as .reg and Import.

I can't work with that.
  18. Ghetto Email Backup Solution: Get a PC, set up Outlook, add all mailboxes, set cache mode to full.
  19. Might I interject that you should consult with a lawyer first if that what you are doing is even legal? ?
  20. How did you change the fans?
  21. A traditional RAID5 is limited to the size of the smallest disk. So you'd get 400GB. I don't know if FreeNAS offers any solution for that.
  22. How do you figure port 25 is not used anymore? SMTP/TLS is using 25/tcp.
  23. Try enabling NAT on the pfSense box for LAN to WAN https://blog.monstermuffin.org/pfsense-guide-nat-firewall-rules-networking-101/
