    @Ken-Sherman,

    No we don't. This would require someone to run the group. Right now, we just don't have the time with our current model of recording.

    Great thread! Looks like you all have come along ways since then!

    How about some mac labs, please?...

    Here are some partial, related quotes from another thread I created last night:

    https://forums.itpro.tv/compose?p=/topic/1443/small-it-company-needs-best-practice-info-references-for-hybrid-mac-work-station-windows-server-environments-pls

    ...btw: Where are the labs for mac? I discussed it with support, which was extremely helpful. And it's apparently an Apple thing having 2b exclusively on apple hardware. I am really hoping you guys get that worked out bc I would really really like to have that and is why I came to your site. How do I setup my OWN mac in a VMWare box in Windows? I have found tutorials online and started following them. Big mistake! My test computer was acting really weird and I can only imagine what and where that was going. So I re-imaged and haven't messed with it since....

    ...I have been learning about how mac's with the $20 server software can centralize User Accounts, Profile Manager, ARD and several other useful things. I am just dying to get my hands on that and play with it with a couple of VM devices. Just killing me!! That is why I would so love to have the labs. Even if we had to schedule time for when we could be on one. Hopefully, the site can figure something out with that. It is very much needed! I can't stress it enough...

    It sounds like you have your hands tied on the hardware end of not being able to deploy VM's on anything by mac. I don't know how and what exactly it is It Pro tv is able to do what it is you currently do.

    All I know is there is a REAL need for it. I want to do things legally. I don't want to d/l hackintosh's for Intel processors. But w/o an affordable lab to play in, what am I going to do? Wait to learn on macs that come in for clients? No, I need a way of playing with it in a cost effective manner. I can just go buy a room full of macs just to play with. I do not have the kind of $$. The money I do have is for jump starting my Team. Apple can either get on board and help you guys deliver something great and you guys charge for it. Else it's some flavor of hackintosh. Booh on that Apple! Booh!! :(

    Anyways. I thought if I put out the real needs of peeps out there like me, that perhaps you guys could do something with it.

    Thank you ahead of time for you taking the time to read this and for your consideration of how in the world you can make this work for us and make Apple happy at the same time. Sounds like you guys need to discuss this, you and Apple - and bring us a solution. That is what I would love to see come out of this.

    Thank you again for your time and help!

    Do you have a copy of the ISO/IEC 27,001 Foundation sample exam documents? I'm on the last 2 videos of the course and they both reference a sample exam that's supposed to be in one of the videos but the documents are missing.

    @Zac-Nixon my apologies that this slipped by me and hasn't been answered. You are familiar with CompTIA's testing style as you have passed other exams, which is a great starting point for CySA+. Here is my advice:
    1 - Browse to the CompTIA CySA+ website and download the objectives
    https://www.comptia.org/certifications/cybersecurity-analyst
    2 - Use the exam objective domains to guide your studies. If you come to topics you already know then lightly breeze through these concepts while focusing your attention on to more difficult topics.
    3 - The amount of information in your various resources, probably looks very overwhelming. Remember use those resources to guide your studies back to the objective list. You do not have to memorize all of that information, only look at a single objective block at a time (1.1, not the whole 1.0 Domain).

    You can do this, you have already passed these exams, you can pass this one! Reach out to us if you have any questions or need help.

    Hey @Andrew-Despres great question and I like the way you used ChatGPT! If you have access to Practice Labs then the environment is setup for you already. You can check out the following courses for Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, Group Policy and more:
    https://app.acilearning.com/course/az-800-administering-windows-server-hybrid-core-infrastructure/course-overview-9328

    If you would like DNS from another perspective than Microsoft, this is a great course:
    https://app.acilearning.com/course/dns/nslookup

    If you decide to build an environment, you can download a trial copy of Server 2022 ISO here:
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2022

    You can then run that in a virtualized environment such as Oracle’s VirutalBox that you can download here:
    https://www.virtualbox.org/

    I hope this helps and look forward to hearing from you!

    Hi There!

    My name is Seth and I am one of the members with our VOD Support. You are right the option to download was missing last night, it has since been found and added back to where it used to be. You should be able to download normally again.

    In the future we do ask that questions like these be directed to us in Support by chatting in via the bubble on our sites, that way we can get a response to you much faster. Have a great day!

    @Ronnie-Wong said in Google Cloud Platform (GCP):

    We do not have more GCP on our roadmap currently. If there is a particular course you would like for us to consider. Please submit this via the chat bubble on our website. This is the official way we track course requests and aggregate them together for consideration.

    Thanks Ronnie! I will consider that :)

    @KL That's where you refer to the exam guides, and text books. No course anywhere is meant to be done without a reference guide.

    I assume you can do it, I never used but here is an notification way to do this. My assumption is that you can create a policy to send to a distribution group.

    @Ryan-Acevedo,

    is there an indention issue with your rescue block? I'm not sure but it doesn't look like it lines up. just a guess.

    I copied the code to an editor...

    block has only 4 spaces.

    rescue has 5 spaces.

    I'm not sure it's problematic, I just know it's inconsistent.
