When you install Windows it always creates a Recovery Partition, which runs a very lite version of Windows with a few tools. There’s been a few times where I’ve used those tools to fix a system. I wanted to know what would happen if I deleted the Recovery Partition. This is what I found down…
I needed to get geoSCOUT working in Omnissa Horizon (formerly VMware Horizon) but geoLOGIC doesn’t officially support publishing geoSCOUT to systems like Citrix, RD Web, and Horizon. Due to the way that geoSCOUT works you can’t just launch the geoSCOUT exe and have it work. On the first launch a user would normally run the…
I have been playing around with Policy mode on the FortiGate and an issue that I’ve ran into a few times is if you have something hosted internally that also needs to be accessed externally it doesn’t work internally when you use the external address, for example a reverse proxy. In my setup I use…
Something that’s annoyed me with FortiGates is that viewing the deny logs isn’t super straight forward. Part of the issue is the fact that Fortinet disables the deny log by default and if you don’t know where to look for it you might not figure it out by clicking around. Fortinet says that they have…
It finally happened, I actually needed to make a script to write scripts. There’s been a few times where I needed to write multiple scripts that are basically the same minus a few variables and in the past I’ve just done this manually. An example of this is a BitDefender Gravity Zone install script, I…
Something that has annoyed me with VMware when compared to Hyper-V is the fact that Hyper-V lets you paste into the VM console. By default VMware has that disabled but you can manually enable it. Doing that is kind of slow so I wrote a script with PowerCLI to enable copy paste on a VM.
With the release of geoSCOUT version 8.17 geoLOGIC upgraded the geoSCOUT launcher but only included an upgrade file that needs to be ran as admin on each system and under each user account. Which is annoying in company setups where users don’t have local admin. Technically speaking geoSCOUT still works even if you don’t run…
If you’ve installed Windows Admin Center (WAC) on a domain joined server and you connect to another domain joined system you’ll see a message similar to this. Having to login multiple times is annoying so here’s how to make the Single Sign On work with WAC using Kerberos constrained delegation.
Have you ever wanted to be sneaky and hide a program that’s installed on your computer from Programs and Features and the Apps & features list? Well search no more, I have all the answers you seek. It’s shockingly simple. Proper programs will list their uninstall info directly in the registry all we have to…
I’ve been playing with a Brocade ICX 6650 in router mode and got hung up on making the second VLAN on another Virtual Ethernet talk to the internet. I’m posting this so I don’t forget how to do it later on lol. Your default VLAN of 1 is on Virtual Ethernet 1 and because that’s…
