I can see why you'd want to freeze it. When people do nutso shit like that, their poop tends to not be solid logs.
...I don't think that's the deciding criteria. Can you see someone saying "Nah, it's a pretty firm loaf, don't bother freezing it, just gimme some paper towels."
If someone can freeze the poop, you freeze the poop.
Anyway. Tonight I get to work overtime to P2V a 497GB VM.
Welp, 7 hours later, it is finally over as a VM... Now waiting for CHKDSK to verify stuff after resizing the partition. Too bad 2003 couldn't extend a primary partition on the fly. I JUST WANT TO GO HOME!
Spent 3 hours trying to figure out why Open Exchange apparently connected to our IMAP servers but wouldn't login.
Eventually discovered it's because the guy who had been testing it had put a hosts file entry for the mail servers, which pointed to the right server, but the wrong port (the actual backend port, not the frontend which did user authentication). So even the logs for the mail server looked like success.

Oh man. Loving new job. 50% travel so far which is higher than expected but some of it is via private jet.
Only having 'network/voice' as your responsibility vs 'all things' is a weird adjustment.
My old boss literally would say crazy paranoid things like "well it was nice working with you. this is it. Third party is coming in now" and lose his stuff. Just crazy mad paranoia. Over nothing. So glad to not be there anymore. "Being happy and job well done" @ work vs that mess is a huge adjustment for me..... I feel like a bad actor- I don't know what to do with my hands while I'm not the one speaking. crazy mad busy times!

I guess it's good chrome uses their own internal flash player?
I don't think I've actually installed flash player on a system in a few years at this point.
Everyone here has Flash installed. I keep them all updated via Patch Manager, so it's not a big deal anymore. Most users don't have Chrome, but we've considered pushing it out to everyone in lieu of IE.
The thing that's a bit striking with this exploit is that it's already a part of exploit kits. That means all anyone needs to start actively exploiting this flaw is that kit, which makes it a ton easier to utilize because someone else has already done the hard work and now the kiddies can just use the kit.
While I agree that being insensitive is an issue, so is being oversensitive.
Anyone ever set up a Magento environment? Our current website is run on a single m3.xlarge EC2 instance with a medium RDS instance. The new Magento setup they're speccing has seven servers, specced like:
DELL Power Edge Intel Dual Socket - Hex Core, 32 GB of ECC RAM, PERC H710 1GB RAID Controller, 4 x 300 GB 15k RPM 6Gbps SAS Drives - Hardware RAID 10 (600GB Logical)
That feels like a lot of firepower for an ecommerce site with like 3-500 skus. Does Magento really take that much to run?

Network circuit scheduled to go down next week(and then rescheduled for a month later) just happens to flake out this week. Providers love to keep you hopping....

we have to support YahooIM on our network vs cisco phone system jabber because you have better emojis in Yahoo. :hydra:

I've already had 2 calls this morning from obviously outsourced call centers asking for my email address to send me important information for bla bla bla bla bla *click*
I hate random vendors calling me

Hey guys, I'm looking for a recommendation for email encryption. 3-4 users at a client's office need to each send 2-3 emails per month to a couple of vendors, and these emails will contain SSNs, etc.
I'm leaning toward Outlook's native encryption; anyone used it before and want to share their experience? Do I need a separate cert other than their normal SSL?

I've already mentally checked out today, just waiting for them to send us home because of the snow storm. I've started editing images from press conferences to pass the time.

Sometimes it's required to include sensitive information, but emails really suck to use it as a method which is why you need a good method for doing so. Again, Voltage is a such a program which integrates well with Outlook. Several users here have licenses for Voltage and use it frequently.

Rental company forwarding applications for apartments, I think.
Still, why is SSN one of the fields that needs to be transferred?
Is passworded zip files out of the question?
Ugh companies and personal identifiable information is the worst. No one gives a shit. I'm even in the medical industry and the way people treat PHI is sickening.

We have banks that have finally started to realize that faxing is no more secure than encrypted email. In some ways, it's less secure. Regardless of the transmission method used, that information still needs to be transferred from one party to the next.
I'm going to assume that this is pretty much the same thing going on in TL DR's case.

Hm, if they just need to encrypt attachments then 7zip might be the ticket. I'll see if I can't get more info.
Thanks for the replies! How are you guys doing today?
We're dealing with some crap now regarding SSNs. The state sends us some info that used to use SSNs but now they've rightfully changed to a made-up ID number for identification purposes. Problem is it was a hard switch over with no cross references. So now we're trying to find ways to match thousands of these ID numbers to their corresponding accounts and names and addresses don't necessarily match either. It's a real mess.
Just remember that half the people you meet are below average intelligence.

While I was catching up and reading the last page I was thinking to myself "Is it butt stuff? I bet in some way it's butt stuff."
It was butt stuff.

If someone can freeze the poop, you freeze the poop.
So I was just kind of guessing that there wasn't a whole lot of thought and gawking and discussion about the poops.
Anyway. Tonight I get to work overtime to P2V a 497GB VM.

Just seems odd you'd even need to send that information via email.

I litereally showed the office manager last time how it works.
I think I need to make a powerpoint and some diagrams and make a meeting and then be all professional and come in and a suit and tie.
The last slide will say,
"Please stop fucking calling me because someone from another office is complaining the line is busy."
The line is busy.
WHAT IN THE LIVING FUCK DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT IT
