I was trying to administer our tenant’s Microsoft Teams accounts, but the connection timed out constantly on my home comp. I assumed it’s because my Office installation’s messed up due to constant switching between 2016 and 2019 Preview. For the googlers: Get-CsPowerShellEndpoint : The operation has timed out At C:\Program Files\Common Files\Skype for Business Online\Modules\SkypeOnlineConnector\SkypeOnlineConnectorStartup.psm1:108 […]
Just one more thing to keep in mind if you decide to pull the trigger and migrate from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams: even though Microsoft claims to have completed transition of Skype for Business Online features to Teams, there’s one biggie still left. If you visit the official documentation for using the Teams […]
Skype for Business is being phased out, so chances are, you’re in the process of migrating your tenant to Microsoft Teams already. You obtain an audio conferencing add-on, or an E5 license, assign it to the user, it shows up properly on the corresponding admin pages, but it just refuses to show up when you […]
Preface Now that Microsoft Teams has reached feature parity with Skype for Business, it’s really time to move on, isn’t it? Additionally, Microsoft has announced the start of the end of life program for the integration of Skype for Business with third-party audio conferencing providers (ACPs), so you have no other option left than subscribing […]
It’s been released just a few days ago: EdgeMAX EdgeRouter software release v1.10.6 Upgraded my ER-X without any issues. Nothing changed config- or behavior-wise. Was curious about the fix for PPPoE offload, didn’t even know such a thing exists, but: [email protected]# set system offload ipv4 pppoe enable Error: platform does not support IPv4 PPPoE offload […]
First you need to create a ‘role’ (i.e. a user). You possibly also want the password to never expire: CREATE ROLE averagejoe LOGIN ENCRYPTED PASSWORD ‘***’ NOINHERIT VALID UNTIL ‘infinity’; Now grant this role access to the selected database: GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE cooldb TO averagejoe; Now connect to said database: \c cooldb Allow SELECT […]
Installation You need the built-in PowerShell, version 5, because PowerShell Core, a.k.a. PowerShell 6, doesn’t work yet. If in doubt, check the version with: $PSVersionTable.PSVersion You need to install a bunch of stuff: Visual C++ 2017 x64 Redistributable Microsoft Online Services Sign-In Assistant for IT Professionals RTW Skype for Business Online Windows PowerShell Module Then […]
Redmine 4 is knocking on the door, and it’s going to drop support for anything below 2.2.2. Unfortunately, EL 7 only has 2.0.0, so you either wait until EL 8 releases and hope it comes with 2.2.2+, or you migrate from the packaged Ruby to something else. I’m picking RVM, because reasons. If you use […]
So guess what, after you carefully set your Logo URL in the Teams Admin site, your meeting invitation looks like this: Here’s a hint, Microsoft: you’re supposed to render that. That one’s on the house. LOL. Edit: great, you can’t even remove the Logo URL from the Teams Admin Center. You remove it, save the […]
Preface I’ve had enough with Tumblr. It’s been randomly messing up with <, >, & characters in the Markdown editor. And by that I mean it removed a random subset of content between, before, or after those characters. Or replaced the characters with something else. Or whatever. Then it randomly removed the closing / character […]
