For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.
Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.
TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.
NetAlertX does network detection monitoring if that’s what you are after. I’ve been very happy with it, I use the ntfy forwarder so I get the alerts on my phone.
Seconding Connect for filters, it was early to the game on this. I use keyword filters like ‘elon’ and ‘trump’ as well as instance filters and it’s been great for curating a non rage inducing Lemmy experience.
I’ve worked with POS systems my whole career and I still can’t help think Piece Of Shit whenever I see it
Thanks for the post, super appreciate the posting of other communties. I think this is a great way to grow Lemmy and create discoverability for niche communities, I’ll keep that in mind myself on future opportunities.
I got my first job with AIX in the early 2000’s after the previous admin did a reinstall of the OS vs an upgrade on prod, with unverified backups. It was a resume generating event.
They lost over 3 months of data and barely survived it.
Especially if its a system that you have told management needs to be replaced but they aren’t interested in spending the money…

Not only that, but it’s no longer your problem when its in the cloud. You can blame the cloud for everything!
If he recognized his typo with the space after the D:\ in his restore command he could have been saved at the bargaining stage. I am so glad I don’t work with this stuff anymore.
The attack vectors I’m thinking of just come from the inherent complexity and centralization. I’m just considering the amount of damage that can be done with a compromised DA account for example vs a non directory environment.
It’s complicated. Done right it can be more secure, not done right it’s less secure.
I also only get brought in for problems for the last however many years, so I’m probaby a bit biased at this point haha.
I have had to tell companies they are going to have to rebuild thier AD from scratch because they didn’t know what thier DSRM password was (usually after a ransomware attack). These are the sort of hassles I think about vs non AD.
You could look at freeIPA or something similar to stay on Linux.
I’m an AD specialist, starting when it came out with server 2000, and can tell you it’s a waste of time for a home network unless you are doing this just because you want to learn it.
It will definitly not make your life any easier, and will increase attack vectors, especially if you don’t know how to secure and protect it.
It’s decided by server. Most require it to cut down on spamming and trolls
Installed Mint on a 2013 Macbook pro retina a few months ago, only thing not working for me was screen brightness with the proprietary Nvidia driver but was able to correct it.
Otherwise it’s great
Hahaha same on the distcc cluster. It was a rare proud moment for me many years ago. I rememeber when I got the cross compiling working it felt like magic. Good times.
TIL been here daily for some time now and didn’t know that.
When initializing a new array, it’s a (usually optional) process of zeroing out the newly added disks. Sometimes it’s required as part of calculating parity across the array (redundancy data).
Also good in Connect on my phone
Love The HU. I remember when they released the first video. I discovered Mongolian music much earlier after getting interested in and learning how to do Tuvan throat singing.
