I am mainly used to the enterprise where most connections are deployed by some "normal" kind of fiber eg SFP+, QSFP+, SFP28, QSFP28 and those modules are almost fool proof, run cool and are reliable. Like most normal admin users, I like to use my own hardware for routing and switching rather than the often poor equipment provided by the ISP, especially when you have enterprise hardware that will be more reliable. The normal path is that you would just take the fiber op........

In Windows, with some NICs, especially Intel, Windows may enable features on the card that break it in Linux. It is hard to troubleshoot as what you'll see is that the NIC is still detected in Linux, the NIC/port will be up but nothing will work (eg. DHCP requests or even static IPs won't work). You may see STP bridge traffic but that is all. In a corporate environment this can result in many calls to support and is essentially downtime and an unnecessary waste of resource........

What matters most about VPNproviders in 2024? We are highly suspicious of VERYLARGE VPN providers that have LOW PRICES and HUGE DISCOUNTS. The suspicion is that for those who know what costs are involved to purchase thousands of IPs and servers are not small. At the prices that many of the big mainstream providers offer, it is likely unprofitable or barely profitable. Then, how are those companies making money or is that even the goal? There use........

I've run into two issues with Lantronix based KVMs on various servers and here's how I solved them (with that said I like these units as they are Java based and OS independent and work very well, unike some other models like Startech). 1.) If you are connected by USB only and you're sure USB support from the BIOS is enabled, you just need to click the following in Lantronix Interfaces -> Keyboard/Mouse Check "Force USB Full Speed Mode", this fixed the issu........

The best way is to use rsync, I've set it up so it doesn't copy unnecessary files, or at least ones I'm sure aren't needed. Here is the rsync command Iused (adapt to your specific Thunderbird profile location): rsync -hazv user@remotehost.com:/home/user/.thunderbird/sbrer.default/* /home/user/.thunderbird/4nyb0.default/ --exclude=global* --exclude=Cache --exclude=ImapMail --exclude=Mail This is a great way to get your e-mail accounts going on a new c........
