I have an older IO Gear USB-to-Serial adapter that I have used for a long time. When I purchased it I was only using Windows laptops and never had a problem getting drivers and getting it to work. When I switched to a MacBook Pro a couple of years ago, I was able to…

So we’ve had a problem at work for awhile and I hadn’t been able to come up with a good solution until today. Problem: We have a person that works for us for a period of time and they leave the company. When they leave we start by expiring their AD Account for 30 days.…

Earlier this week I started getting alerts that our Exchange 2013 server was running low on disk space for our transaction logs. When I started looking at the drive, I noticed that one of the databases was generating a new log file every 1 – 2 seconds and by the time I received the notification…

Did a quick search and came across an article that talked about disabling Hardware Acceleration. Here…

On Linux and Mac systems you can use the following commands:
300MB file (random data): dd if=/dev/urandom of=300mb.log bs=1024 count=307200
300MB file (zero data): dd if=/dev/zero of=300mb.log bs=1024 count=307200…
So at work we have been setting up Nagios XI, Nagios Network Analyzer, and Nagios Log Server. One of the tasks was to get all of the switches to send their syslog messages to the Nagios Log Server.
