@DanBig Websense. In its defense, it's good at catching spam, and low false positive rate, though that seems to be par for the course, and not being able to customize it my-damn-self is a major irritant.
On a different note... anyone see a problem with using Applocker auditing for ~1000 computers, and using Event Log forwarding to centralize the logs? Or should I expect that to go badly?
@DennisNolte Right, well, moreso than anything else, I mean. The scale kinda has me concerned, but hopefully my window-licking user base isn't launching applications that often.
@HopelessN00b Just wanted to mention I deleted your comment on that one question about migrating to Network Engineering - you were completely right, nothing wrong with the comment - as part of my vendetta again NE I eradicate all comments mentioning the site unless it's spectacularly justified.
@DennisNolte No, and.. that's kinda the question. Hoping someone else has relevant experience to suggest whether this is more likely than usual to blow up in my face. :)
I need to access my MSDN subscription to start downloading and installing software on the machine I just provisioned with rackspace (windows server 2008 r2).
I go to the msdn subscriber downloads page, and when I press get:

Long story short: NE is 100% overlap with SF, normally SE doesn't allow those sites at all in A51 (they get closed, as the first and second NE proposals did). The most recent proposal whinged so badly that they "felt" SF was hostile to networking people (because of the word "server" in the name) that they needed to have their own site. SE made an exception on account of all this whining, and now some NE users like to pretend like SF never did networking.
@DanBig Same here, Forefront is powered by CloudMark and apparently spammers have been focusing on getting around their filters lately. We were using Spamhaus's Zen list, added Barracuda's to cut down quite a bit more, but still seeing plenty. I just keep shoveling false negatives over to their reporting address (forefront-spam@submit.cloudmark.com)
This question is based on false premises.
First, prior to your posting the question this morning, you had received exactly two downvotes in the prior week, on two different posts, on two different days. This hardly screams "targeted" or "revenge" downvoting.
Prior to that, you had a post roundl...
@MichaelHampton Maybe you could post a how-to guide to help this guy out. Something along the lines of how to not be a dumbass, whiny bitch seems appropriate.
I'm trying to patch my server against the Shellshock vulnerability issue. However, I'm unable to update Bash to a safe version, these are the results I'm getting:
# yum update bash
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Skipping security plugin, no dat...
@NathanC It's very poorly documented. It basically means that that's the repo the package was installed from. Which is probably pointless and redundant information...
@DennisKaarsemaker Yes. TBF MS had it in XP when you installed the PowerTools add-on. I think later versions might have had the same thing, but I never cared to find out.
I'm still super skeptical. I think people who have never used it think they want it. I'm pretty confident once they've tried it they'll never use it again.
@Bob Where exactly? (Not doubting you, no Mac user I know uses them, same with Linux, just wondering why I see such a different experience from what you've seen)
Then again, I'm not interested enough in Macs, so I tend to ignore them most of the time. Maybe I just caught the three people in the world who actually use it.
@ChrisS Just... people? I can't really say there's anything distinctive about them.
That's a bit of what I suspected - areas where I don't see people using Macs and Linux much, so maybe I'm just completely missing a demographic where people use multiple desktops all the time.
I'd rather just have 2-3 monitors... And if I can't, I'd rather just minimize applications than try to switch between different desktops. Seems really cumbersome..
@ChrisS I have actually been in situations where it might have helped me - several windowed programs, say terminal windows, that I want tiled, and where I might need to switch between them and other programs.
They eluded to a more continuous release schedule, but really didn't come out and say it... I hate MS press talks because they're so vague and full of Marketing BS.
@faker I've actually done that a fair bit. Usually with ESL-issues or the like, where the question's unclear because the asker doesn't know quite how to phrase it.
When I was a kid, I heard a lot of people talking about where to find this place. However, I've not yet been able to locate it. Could someone please tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego, preferably with a map image clearly pointing it out.
@MichaelHampton I have fond memories of that game and TV show. So I'm going to avoid pulling it up on YouTube to be reminded of how low my standards used to be.
temped to answer that with a map of the solar system and an arrow pointing to Earth. Subscript: This is the location of Carmen Sandiego and of Mr Bin Laden.
I have come to appreciate ServerFault now. After venturing into the TechNet "help" forums I have realized the "helpers" aren't even !@*%@ qualified to be on Super User...

I have started use Windows 8.1. I want to use four desktops like Ubuntu. It is possible?
