#

yeah but new devices won't be able to get an IP

#

yeah lol

#

shouldn't

#

same or less

#

https://i-uk.ryois.me/e1ef090c.png

#

I also have a GP rule for the rest of my computers

#

I use a vpn

#

On my remote server it connects to the vpn before sign on to connect to the domain controller

#

It's a PPTP vpn. Moving to directaccess soon

#

Lol

#

📎 image.jpg

#

That's what it looks like on the lock screen with a VPN

#

It's super useful

#

I have a remote server so I sorta need to connect to my domain controller

#

And I don't wanna port forward that. . .

#

Idk if you can too

#

But I don't wanna lol

#

Let's not create more security issues than is needed

#

Oof

#

Yea

#

Lol

#

Gg ipad you get better speeds than my laptop

#

Lol

#

Yeah

#

103/10 laptop usually gets 80/10

#

True

#

It's better than all of my friends though

#

I have the best internet out of all of my friends

#

Which is quite sad lol

#

Considering one lives in an area that he can get 2gbit

#

No

#

I know

#

We don't have fiber for houses/residential in our area

#

Nor does business

#

If you want fiber you gotta get a fiber line dug

#

Which can be expensive

#

And charter doesn't do fiber

#

Nor does any in my area

#

Charter is the only cable isp

#

AT&T is dsl

#

Rest are satellite or 4G

#

Now that I think about it

#

How much did my district pay for 15 fiber lines

#

Some are in areas where there is no cable or dsl

#

And there's fiber there only to the school

#

15 1 gigabit lines

#

Gigabit up and down

#

Each school gets their own public ip and internal range

#

Nice

#

10.0.XX.xxx

#

So main where all of the main stuff is is 10.0.0.XXX

#

Then school go from 10.0.20.XXX-10.0.80.XXX

#

Each school gets ~500ips

#

More are added if needed

#

Wait, each get like 700 my bad

#

The high school gets the most because it's the biggest with around 4 thousand ips

#

The router is 10.0.XX.03, the DC is 10.0.XX.02, the FS is 10.0.XX.04-06

#

Public schools

#

Yes

#

You can access any school's DC from any school

#

SMB is disabled

#

I tried the C$

#

Doesn't work

#

It's refused, times out, or asks for credentials

#

Imo what's cool. The web filter integrates with active directory

#

So it knows what OU the compute is in and applies the correct filtering

#

Nope

#

📎 image.png

#

Here's my school's network before school started

#

So no student devices were on or connected

#

Those no names entrasys are the APs

#

Each school has a nano server 😄

#

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/get-started/getting-started-with-nano-server

Install Nano Server

Clean installation, upgrade, migration, and evaluation of Nano Server

#

Yeah

#

Wanna know what's bad about a guest wifi I was on?

#

You can access any of the connected clients

#

Lol

#

hello anyone got some time to give me a hand with a ipv6 problem im having? Iv been trying to fix it my self for a few weeks and im finaly breaking down and trying to get some one much smarter than me to help

#

my network setup is like this ( cable modem >PFsense>windows 2016 DC with DNS and DHCP 4/6 >clients ) Clients are pulling addresses but no ipv6 trafic is making it past the pfsense box

#

so it has to be a settign i messed up or a rule or somthing breaking the network

#

I can resolve address in the local network

#

using nslookup

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 12:34 AM

#

Maybe there is some missing ipv6 routes on your windows server to forward trafic

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 12:52 AM

#

Im figuring its osme setting in pfsense that i dont know to configure or somthing

#

it works if i use the built in dhcpv6 on pf sence but wont rout past the pfsence box if i dont

#

so im thinking its a gateway setting or somthing

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 12:57 AM

#

You have to use another subnet after your Windows machine, like using a /56 on PFsense side then use a /64 for the rest of the network, your windows machine is then the gateway and you have to route trafic to the PFSense /56 address

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:06 AM

#

even know the DC is on the same switch as the rest of the lan

#

everthing is behind the pfsence box

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:08 AM

#

Well.. Maybe with separated DHCP server you can do it without a subnet, but I would do this to make stuff easier. (But then you will have to create a route on your PFSense)

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:08 AM

#

I think thats where im having trouble it looks like trafic hit the pf sense box and stops

#

it detecting the pfsense box as the gateway but not routing past

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:10 AM

#

And my PFSense knowledge is a bit small (I only setup a little 6to4 tunnel and then used the DHCPv6 server from PFSense on a dedicated ESXi server)

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:13 AM

#

why does this have to be so complicated lol

#

😃

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:16 AM

#

It's networking ^^ That thing is more complicated than just connect some cables ^^

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

lol yea IPV6 is just the shinny thing that looks confusing as crap and is differnt than what im used to so it confuses me

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:17 AM

#

You wouldn't even imagine how dumbly difficult this thing can be in some cases

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:18 AM

#

the company i work for is planing on rolling it out this fall and none of us realy know much abougth how to rout it properly

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:18 AM

#

Damn, glhf mate

#

ipv6 routing can be a b*tch sometime

rocky badge Apr 3, 2018, 1:19 AM

#

ikr I hate v6

#

I disabled it on my laptops and computers

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 1:20 AM

#

so i took it upon my self to correct my igorance so im deploying it on my own network first its verry simular to how theere network is but smaller

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:20 AM

#

I personally think it's cool but it's a freaking mess when you try to dig too much in it.

rocky badge Apr 3, 2018, 1:20 AM

I love the DHCP server on Windows Server. https://i-uk.ryois.me/5ebe79be.png

It's nice.

#

And integrates well with other stuff like RAS.

#

atm it looks ok but sigh

#

@rocky badge yea my ipv4 side works great just getting it to work on both is the headach

#

thats why i dont want to use the built in dhcp server on the pfsense box

#

you scale it out to 200 clients its a pain to manage on pfsense

#

windows dhcp 10 , 200 , 2000 its still useable

#

#

so weird i can ping but tracert just dies

rocky badge Apr 3, 2018, 2:18 AM

#

Yeah @stoic aurora

#

I have IPv6 setup

#

You just won't connect to my active directory server

#

Therefore no login

stoic aurora Apr 3, 2018, 5:56 AM

I fixed it woot woot

i checked the box that said Append circuit ID and agent ID to requests and everthing worked

I wonder if its the lights out port on my server

#

I added a PTR record for it anyways

uncut pendant Apr 3, 2018, 1:15 PM

#

Im on Windows 10
I have a phone hotspot and a router
i want steam to connect to my router and i want a few other programs to use the hotspot

#

is that possible

slow pivot Apr 3, 2018, 1:17 PM

#

Not that I know of, unless you have multiple wifi cards

uncut pendant Apr 3, 2018, 1:18 PM

#

I mean
i have 2 ways of connecting them

#

the router is connected by powerline

#

so ethernet

#

and the hotspot is usb

#

and windows recognizes that

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

You could do it but manually (get each IP of steam server and route them to your router, or redirect only some IP to the hotspot) but it's a huge pain to setup and it's not future proof.

#

Some apps allows you to just scan for an app and redirect all its trafic to one network adapter (but they aren't free)

slow pivot Apr 3, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

Ahhh

#

There is a way to do that, have you looked up "multi-homed" for windows 10?

high anchor Apr 3, 2018, 1:40 PM

Actually no, i'll take a look at it 😃

glad marsh Apr 3, 2018, 7:02 PM

#

wait so this is a?... RAID 5?

#

cool 😛

#

haha

#

well memory caching might be worth trying tbh

#

no idea how to do that on windows properly though

#

nah I mean like some smart-ish software RAM caching

#

yeah Linux does too

#

but explicit caches are a lot faster

#

at least on linux it did yield me perf improvements lol

#

using a big file in a RAMDisk as a cache "SSD" lol

#

it works surprisingly well for how janky of a setup it is lol

#

on the linux note btw

#

btrfs is very fast

#

I suppose because it abuses memory cache a lot better than ext4

#

but I mean noticably faster even on an SSD

#

just by switching from ext4 to btrfs

#

btrfs is a filesystem yea

#

pretty new in the grand scheme of things though

#

and it natively supports RAID 0 and 1 btw

#

loool

#

yeah ofc

#

I use it on most things now

#

including my server

#

the RAID 1 features are much "safer" than hardware RAID actually

#

as btrfs also does block checksums, so it can figure out which drive is faulty

#

a hardware RAID with 2 drives doesnt have any other choice but to error out

#

its 50/50 xD

#

not sure if this is in mainstream yet, havent updated in a while and dont really want to re-do my server setup

#

but you can/will be able to tell it RAID levels per-folder

#

so like have a RAID 1 folder, RAID 0 folder, etc

#

per file encryption and compression

#

really sexy filesystem

#

never used it, but from what Ive read and heard its really powerful

#

interesting

#

afaik it needs pretty high amounts of RAM dedicated to it to run smoothly

#

but I doubt hes running out of RAM

#

yeah should be fine

#

"should" lol

#

well

#

is it just HDDs?

#

hm

#

could be the CPUs, but I dont want to bet anything on it

#

but I have a similar scenario

#

a client of mine bought a crappy server even though I told him to get a typical desktop-like ryzen setup

#

its a quadcore Xeon, 8 GB RAM and dual 500 GB HDDs

#

(for more $$$ than a 12 thread Ryzen with 16 GB and an SSD... but oh well)

#

yeah

#

I told him he will have to buy me more RAM soon

#

especially if he wants to run more VMs on it

#

lel

#

yeah the windows install on it is really slow

#

basically the use case is: web server VM + dev web server VM

#

a windows VM that they use through remote desktop

#

cuz they didnt want to pay money for multiple licenses of some expensive sw

#

so we made a VM for it like that

#

but get this

#

it used to take like 5 minutes to fully boot the VMs

#

and windows was pretty responsive for a HDD

#

now it takes around 10 minutes to boot

#

and windows is really unresponsive

#

even the start menu is choppy when loading

#

guess what changed since?

#

nope

#

I applied meltdown patches...

#

literally the only change

#

yeah 😐

#

yeh

#

its a skylake Xeon btw

#

xD

#

yeh

#

I run my personal server on an i5-4460 lol

#

not updating that rn

#

KVM

#

we needed to run some light stuff on the host itself (such as a samba share and we dont have the budget for dedicated share HDDs)

#

so ubuntu-server and KVM

#

coolio

#

I want a powerful-ish server for virt

#

this i5 is fun and all but it "only" has 24 GB of RAM

#

yeah lol

#

xD

#

I have 32 GB in my desktop and 24 GB in the server

#

but for really heavy virt its just not enough

#

ayyy over half done

#

lel

#

you should get over 100 MB/s with a single one lol

#

let alone an array

#

ah right

#

I only ever used software RAID 1 with btrfs

#

and RAID 1 doesnt do much

#

as btrfs does checksums even without RAID

#

lolz

#

I want moar storage :<

#

got a 1 TB HDD + 120 GB SSD + 256 GB NVMe in my desktop

#

nah just purely more storage

#

a 2 TB HDD wouldnt hurt in my desktop tbh

#

and then my server has a 120 GB boot SSD and dual 2 TB in btrfs RAID

#

^ use that as my NAS

#

yeah

#

I want a 2 TB (or bigger) HDD directly in my desktop though

#

so I can do stuff like record my games all the time

#

for those occasional cheaters and lol moments

#

yeah thought about that lol

#

ah thats really noice

#

meanwhile I just have this derpy screenshot sharing lol

#

https://nemez.net/u/B1r1S8boG.png

#

well and my potato website I guess

#

lovely

#

its gettin' there

#

xD

#

yeh lul

#

I was about to buy an old dual xeon 72 gig server actually

#

but then an offer you cant deny came up...

#

an RX480 4GB for $200

#

its gonna be more like $350-400 after shipping and import taxes..

#

but oh well, still half the price of what Id pay for a new one here

#

fancy

#

unlikely

#

nah its not

#

thats still 4 GB/s

#

you can rage, its not gonna change anything

#

or is it?

#

I just realised your earlier 3rd drive for parity comment was related to my RAID 1

#

well ya know

#

btrfs block checksums

#

not really needed 😛

#

meh

#

idk maybe

#

btrfs only supports RAID 0 and 1 rn

#

no I mean "maybe" as in "maybe Ill do it in the future"

#

cuz btrfs doesnt support RAID 5 as of now and its a consumer haswell chip on a Z97, so no hardware RAID card unless I buy one

#

yeh

#

xD

#

alright running a disk speed test on my VM

#

lets see how this thing does...

#

ye

#

LMFAO

#

dat memory caching doing its job

#

damn

#

hooolllyyyy

#

okay

#

just f or info

#

lmao

#

okay now my speeds ok?

#

this is just a KVM virtual harddisk

#

on an SSD

#

with btrfs

#

nothing special

#

NTFS inside of the VM

#

https://nemez.net/u/Sk5KvLZiM.png

#

ifkr

#

doing HDD now

#

which is on the RAID 1 array

#

same results for read speed

#

yep

#

it just doesnt care

#

Ill try 5 GB with the HDDs in a bit

#

when this finishes

#

okay only 1.6 GB/s write

#

vs 2.2 on the SSD

#

fuck cache https://nemez.net/u/Sksmu8WiG.png

#

doin' 16 GB now

#

I love this lmao

#

taskmgr is so confused with VirtIO drivers

#

https://nemez.net/u/rJEBuUbiz.png

#

lol

#

Im just running plain ol'win10 pro in the VM

#

yeah I know, Ive used winserver for a bit once

#

tried to get PCI passthrough to work

#

with no luck ofc xD

#

Id probably use something like XenServer

#

for my desktop passthrough Id like to use linux too

#

and kinda pointless using Xen and 2 VMs when you can use linux as the host and only have 1 VM

#

and for my server its linux as host again cuz I need it to be able to do a lot of other stuff than just run VMs :/

#

(yeh I know Xen can do it and ESXi can probably too, but this was the say way out :P)

#

lol

#

noice

#

also caches have been annihilated now

#

https://nemez.net/u/Sy0ztLbjz.png

#

but still keep in mind thats 2 HDDs in RAID 1

#

and they are only 5400rpm

#

Im sad the software Im using for a ramdisk has a singlethreaded driver :/

#

limits performance a lot

#

but its the only dynamically allocating ramdisk I found, so I guess I cant complain much lol

#

https://nemez.net/u/B14dqIbiM.png

#

the multithreaded one I was using before

#

I think it was radeon ramdisk actually, which is just a rebrand of something else anyways

#

but that was doing 10 GB/s easily

@subtle glen half your taskbar is missing man

white coral Apr 3, 2018, 9:19 PM

they really dont want you using it because its a security landmine and they dont want to support 7 really any longer

@subtle glen you dont need a key to download 8.1

7 is really only availble to download for people stuck with it needing recovery, or wanting to migrate to a vm for legacy app support

so they require a key so average joes building a new pc cant get it

is there a way to drive 2 mainbords (with cpu + ram ) with one OS (windows 10) ?

subtle glen Apr 4, 2018, 4:28 PM

#

@rocky dirge nah, its not a good idea sharing a drive between 2 motherboards (*mainboards) also cause if one is using it, the second one may have to wait for the drive to be free. Also i dont think it is something possible. U could try to make 2 partitions but u would need 2 os on the same hard drive

#

i think this is not the correct section for this question

slow pivot Apr 4, 2018, 5:00 PM

@rocky dirge Do you mean at the same time, or a dual-boot kinda arrangement?

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 5:10 PM

So, I'm really stumped. I want to have my own networking equipment, but I still do not know which route is best, aside from buying my own modem:

MikroTik
Ubiquiti's UniFi
VyOS and/or PfSense
Some other suggested brands

subtle glen Apr 4, 2018, 5:19 PM

#

well, with a modem u can only have one wired device, u need a modem AND a router if you want to have multiple devices

#

also pf sense is the operating system for a router build

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 5:20 PM

#

As is VyOS if I am not mistaken

Also, I know that all the modem does is transcode the signal and you need a router to send it out, then a WAP to broadcast it wirelessly

subtle glen Apr 4, 2018, 5:22 PM

#

yeah, if u want to use pfsense or vyos u need a computer or something else like a pfsense box that has at least 2 network cards, for a router brand in particular i honestly dont know, that depends if you have to do something particular

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 5:23 PM

#

Ah, okay. Thank you for your input 😃

slow pivot Apr 4, 2018, 5:37 PM

#

pfSense can easily perform the duties of a router (this is what I use on my network)

#

So no need to get two discrete pieces of gear to perform each task

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 5:42 PM

#

What about virtualizing them?

slow pivot Apr 4, 2018, 5:43 PM

#

You can do that. I don't recommend it, since a router/pfSense usually provides useful services that you would want if your virtualization solution is offline for any reason.

#

I typically have a dedicated firewall/router pfSense box and a virtualization server for the rest of my services

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 5:48 PM

#

Ah, gotcha. I only have my one PC setup rn. I have another one sitting in the closet

slow pivot Apr 4, 2018, 5:52 PM

#

ahj, that is a bit of a problem with my solution then 😃

#

I ran m0n0wall (a system that pfSense was modelled/built on) for many years before switching to a pfSense. I ran that on a Compaq Presario, Pentium3, 128MB ram. Did great 😃 I still have that box, and it still runs, was just brought out of service a year ago.

autumn estuary Apr 4, 2018, 6:01 PM

#

What's a problem with your solution?

slow pivot Apr 4, 2018, 6:02 PM

I needed it to monitor my UPS and issue shutdown requests to servers, and m0n0wall doesn't support NUT

i feel kinda sick when 300mb is considered baller when fiber optics exist and 10gb a sec internet is possible

#

like 300mbps should be what you look at when you live in an rural area if the infrastructure actually got investments apart from just staying functional

slow pivot Apr 6, 2018, 5:22 AM

#

possible yes, but not practical. Having 2-3 people get 10Gb/s is not hard, getting 1000s or even 100s of households 10Gb/s is really, really, really hard

#

For example, how does an ISP aggregate 100 households all trying to run at 10Gb/s? 1TB/s, there are very few single solution switches that can handle that and most other solutions are still very very expensive

#

And then you need routers that can handle that load, and backbone links to push all that data to your peers, and then your peering connections have to be at least that fast, and likelt faster to service your other clients, etc etc etc

slow pivot Apr 6, 2018, 11:15 AM

#

Right, and it has been a standard telecomm practice to do so for a long time (maybe since the beginning?). But I think, my point still stands: to provision 1Gb fibre already means the local switching has to be able to handle several 10s of Gb/s, not to mention that the core switching capability needs to be in the 100s Gb/s, which is already very expensive.

#

Putting fibre in the ground is expensive, but as many providers realized in the early 2000's, lighting dark fibre is not cheap either.

#

Maybe it is different now, but not from the pricing that my local Mr Cable and Ma Bell quote 😉

@ivory drift hope you got your watercooling figured out. If you haven't yet, try to put in a Y or a T fitting at the very bottom of your loop. In mine I have a Y fitting, into a valve, with a cap. I then have a left over piece of hose on a barb which I can hook up to drain it into a container.

#

Make sure everything is tight and secure, don't let the pump run dry, don't bother with coolants or dyes, distilled water is perfectly fine. And don't mix metals with your blocks and radiators. Follow all of that and you'll be fine.

I'll try bridging them all with your physical network

#

otherwise you will be in NAT hell

high anchor Apr 9, 2018, 2:44 PM

#

I had an issue with VMWare ESXi on a dedicated server and the fact that it doesn't have any NAT support, so I used a pfSense VM with two nic, one that is bridged on my physical nic (with its own public IP, that's just a dedicated server stuff and you will probably don't need this) and another that is on a virtual network. The pfSense VM is giving local IP with DHCP to all VMs and route trafic to the physical NIC. But if you need to access a VM from your network, you will need to open ports on the pfSense VM.
As it was said, if you have the choice, use bridged nic on your VMs. It will get IPs from your router, as a physical machine would do.

"attacks" or connection attempts?

pale sphinx Apr 11, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

connection attempts

slow pivot Apr 11, 2018, 6:58 PM

#

because... unless your ISP is doing some fancy filtering, anyone on that same IP sub-net as your WAN will be able to fire traffic at your IP

#

So if there are still people that plug their PC directly into their WAN connection, no firewall/wifi-router thingy, you'll see that

pale sphinx Apr 11, 2018, 7:00 PM

Was just wondering it since i haven't never seen it happening

I'm going to give both a quick try. I have an ubuntu server already setup. I was using IIS before when I setup my DNS and AD DS

i have a cisco SG200-18

Link aggregation but unless you have SSDs in the NAS I doubt you will really benefit

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 12:39 PM

@pastel creek at the moment i have link aggregation
and on the nas i have ssd's as cache and in my pc an nvme ssd

#

@pastel creek but i don't get better speeds than 120MB/s

pastel creek Apr 14, 2018, 12:50 PM

#

Ah, if it’s only point to point you are pretty limited. I have this configured for our office since I have multiple designers accessing files at the same time.

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 1:04 PM

#

@pastel creek yea thats my problem and how can i go above it

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 8:22 PM

#

@ancient vigil so what i have to configure?

#

@ancient vigil ma nas supports smb3

#

i set smb3 to maximum protocol

📎 unknown.png

#

@ancient vigil iv plugged in 4cables

#

@ancient vigil and 6 in my pc

#

@ancient vigil the confusing thing is that the brand of my nas says more than 1Gbit is only possible with multiple clients

#

nas config at the moment

📎 unknown.png

#

pc config

📎 unknown.png

#

but im only getting 1Gbit

#

even with 2 clients its splits up

#

and then connect to one ip of the server?

#

ah use the hostname

#

@ancient vigil doesn't it work if i have
.129
.130
.132
.133
?

#

now i have pc still bonded and i acces over hostname

📎 unknown.png

#

looks pretty limited

#

it looks like

#

i have 1 5gbit and 1 1gbit in my pc

#

5x 1gbit

#

okey ill first use a second pc

#

nop only one cisco 200-18

#

if i use 2 pcs i only get a half gbit for both pc's

#

@ancient vigil now im connected with 2 pc's to my nas over hostname
i can acces my nas over all 4 ip's but i still get 1Gbit together

#

@ancient vigil if i connect with pc over ip 129 and other pc 130 it works
but thats the only way😬

#

@ancient vigil and i really want to get 4Gbits on my main pc

#

@ancient vigil you mean disable smb 1 and 2?

#

oops i cant do that

#

only disable smb1

#

yep

#

i guess i have the problem

#

i disabled smb1
now i cant acces the hostname but still the ip's
means the hostname does only support smb1🤔

#

now i can acces hostname

#

weird shit

#

but still only 1Gbit😡

#

@ancient vigil do you know what SMB permanent handles means?

#

@ancient vigil whats that address?

#

oh my nas has 4 static ip's my pc dhcp

#

@ancient vigil only one cisco switch
and my pc can ping all 4 ip's of my nas

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 9:32 PM

#

@ancient vigil crazy is that the brand sayd its not possible to get more than 1Gbit per client
but it supports dynamic link aggregation

#

@ancient vigil i did that but with not more than 1 gbit total

#

@ancient vigil is there another way to connect the ip's together to get 4gbit

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 10:09 PM

#

@ancient vigil if i connect with my pc to 3 ip's of the nas i get a total of over 250MB/s

hushed dome Apr 14, 2018, 10:41 PM

@ancient vigil or does my Cisco SG200-18 limit it?
I mean I can connect wth my pc to 4 NAS IP's and i get more than 125MB/s

@ancient vigil I have no bond at my pc but that isn't important at all
I get 4Gbits and thats important

@ancient vigil if its enabled in the config of the nas😂

#

@ancient vigil now id just like to know how to bond my pc with that working
wit no bond it works fine with bond it hadn't

#

yea but on my nas its bonded😂

#

or it says

#

@ancient vigil bonding at both side should work but that didn't
and the manufacturer sayd its not possible to get more than 1GB with one client
I guess the bonding at the nas doesn't work at all and thats the reason

#

ah okey

#

I get speeds up to 300MB with my hdd's with ssd cache

#

ram cache would be great

@ancient vigil yes if I copy a film i only get about 100MB/s and if i copy it the second time about 300MB/s

What questions maby @ancient vigil Can help you

meager creek Apr 17, 2018, 5:50 PM

#

I have to design a network rendering cluster for this one college class, and as soon as I received this assignment, the first one I thought of asking was LMG, because they have a few videos on their setup, but they're outdated as I'm sure they aren't running most of that hardware anymore. I liked the video Linus showed where he showed off the $4,000 server chassis that allows you to have up to 8 GPU's in it. The SuperMicro SuperServer 4027GR-TRT. I can't really find the information I need for this assignment so I'll just ask them here.

What are the most powerful CPU's you can put into it? Like what era of Xeon's am I stuck to? I was going to stick a pair of Intel Xeon E5-2699 V4 2.2GHz 22-Core's in it, but I feel like that's too new for this system.

When he Linus said it was 1600W is that total for the entire system, or is that 1600W for just one power supply? I don't want to overwhelm the system by drawing more than what it can put out.

What GPU's would you recommend for this system? That won't put a massive load on the power supplies.

Is Linus running SSD's in this server or is he running 2.5" SAS drives? And which ones? (Like models and capacity, etc).

How is it that with the Supermicro SuperServer 4028GR-TRT that Linus used for 8 Gamers 1 CPU, that can only put 1600W on 240 volts and 1000W on 120v can support up to 8 Zotac GTX 980Ti Amp's that have TDP's of 250W each? Like those 8 cards alone at full capacity draw 2000W, and that's not including the other two GTX cards that aren't Zotac in the chassis. How is he getting away with that?

#

If you're gaming on all 8 of them at a time, aren't you putting a load on the cards which would cause them to draw a significant amount of power?

In canada, with a lot of hydro power where electricity is close to the cheapest in North America

#

Oh

#

RIp we dont have that much hydro power

I think it was something like 4U of rackspace with 4A was 200-250$/month (which is pretty darn cheap here) and it was a 1Gb network connection with 1TB data per month

#

To get 8A to that same 4U was 500$ a month or more

#

either way, they were willing to give me 10x the data spped and transfer for 10-20$ more

#

but power, no way, dat's spensive

#

And I'm skeptical about 17c/KWh

#

Is that with multiple redundant power entry?

#

Ahh, see the base price I pay at home is 4c/KWh

#

yup

#

As I said, we have really cheap power here

#

The datacenter I was looking at had 2 redundant hydro power feeds, standard generators, UPS, and a redundant natural gas feed + generators

#

200-250$ for 4U and 4A (we're 110V here, so about 4KW to the rack)

#

I didn't get a breakdown for power specifically

#

yeah

#

This is why I'm running my own servers from home

#

eeeh, fast enough for the moment (30/30)

#

Considering that consumer data rates are rediculous here

#

100$/month + 25$/month for static IPs

#

that's just internet access

#

25/month for 1, and like 5$ for each 10 additional I think

#

so the cost to get one is a bit expensive, but it goes down with more

#

0.50$ per each extra but you need to get 10 at a time

#

yeah, it's not cheap; it's a commercial account since the consumer packages don't offer static IPs at all

#

jyeah

#

it'll be IPv6 or bust pretty soon

#

er

#

yeah, still getting used to this keyboard 😃

#

I need to see if I can get my IPv6 connectivity sorted now that I have a business account

#

I have dev work that I will be doing in the near future that will require IPv6

#

hehe, yeah, people don't realize how many IPs we are using in the IPv4 space till they have a look as what can be given away in the IPv6 space

#

heh

#

no, but a /64 is literally huge

#

heh, supposing you could ping-test 10 IP/s, that's still 325million years to scan a /48 😉

I've often wondered what a IPv6 capable router/firewall will look like if it is handling a significant chunk of IP space

elfin socket Apr 21, 2018, 1:31 AM

#

Anyone here have experience running exterior cat 5e and adding surge protection?

#

want to protect the router just in case sometime from the outside has a power spike

#

Any brand recommendations, or guides?

#

looking at these right now

Can't go wrong with L-com.

ITWLinx is solid as well.

Monday morning, just came back in school from holidays, and I already need some sleep.
I couldn't understand why 2 VMs that I created weren't getting internet.
Maybe there is something about having cloned the clean VM (OS not even installed) so I don't have to do the setup assistant again.
And so, maybe the fact that they have the same MAC address could create some network issues...

#

Facepalming hard

#

Welp, nevermind, I just didn't put the right gateway on Debian network setup (I needed to put a static IP on it).

Good day everyone.
Quick question - has anyone else have a problem with particular spammer?
Long story short - out email is getting spammed by one spammer that using different spoofed adresses and domains xxx@vpsxxx.com (insert random 4-6 digit number in place of x's).
Tried every way to block it off, but somehow it manages to get arround our spamfilter.

If anyone has suggestions - I would like to hear them

@ancient vigil VMWare Workstation, normally I don't have those kind of problems (I know very well how VMWare stuff works) but I was half asleep this morning and it didn't helped ^^

hi guys I have a question. did i get juked by guetting PIA? that VPN thing? it doesnt work with netflix. says im using a proxy or unblocker right away

calm oak Apr 24, 2018, 6:04 AM

#

@steel magnet that's pretty common. You probably won't be able to use most streaming services while connected to a vpn. Twitch won't even let you log in while connected to a VPN, saying you are IP banned. I haven't used PIA, but there may be an option to whitelist certain sites. It is still much safer to use a VPN when in public though, even if it may get in the way of more recreational activities.
