Some automation in the lab and prepping the #Microsoft #MVPSummit calendar/sessions. It is going to be a very busy week learning and sharing feedback, insights, and ideas. The campus will be buzzing with #MVPBuzz in #Redmond
"I don't trust appliances". Neither do I unless I get to test and break them in my lab to decide if they are worth my attention & serve my needs. Hence, I "play" around a lot with the Veeam appliances, learning how they work, customizing, etc. #VeeamVanguard #MVPBuzz #Learning

Yes, avoiding Authenticator is the way to go, but that is not possible in every scenario ... some even have testing with Authenticator as a requirement.
Indeed, and I get why but that is also annoying as in the lab I use and old phone with modern, frequently updated Lineage OS to avoid clutter on my primary device.
Yes, so often we need our so-called legacy skills to save the day.
Supurb e-mail to get at the end of a Monday! I was renewed for the #VeeamVanguard program, class of 2026! The global #Veeam #Community is such a great program where we share, learn, grow, help, and yes, struggle together with hard issues for the benefit of us all! Thank you!

The wilderness in the #Uinta Mountain Range in the Northeast of the wonderful state of #Utah. Excellent hiking opportunities in a rugged landscape. #MountainWest

Having worked with #TPLink #Omada => it delivers all that home networking needs at a great price point. If you need a more capable firewall, use #OPNsense or such. Combine it with FTTH without an ISP router, and it is the cheapest way to get great networking. I will serve SMB's needs as well.
