Cisco ASA Site to Site IKEv2 VPN Static to Dynamic
KB ID 0001602 Problem Site to Site VPNs are easy enough, define some interesting traffic, tie that to a crypto map, that decides where to send the traffic, create some phase 1 and phase 2 policies, wrap the whole lot up in a tunnel-group, and you’re done! But there needs to be a ‘peer address’ in the crypto map, and if one end of the VPN is on DHCP that address is likely to change, so you cant supply that? The...
EVE-NG on VMware ESX Strange ARP Problems?
KB ID 0001601 Problem I use EVE-NG a lot, it’s an awesome tool. Also I’m lucky enough to have my own ESX servers, so that’s where it lives.

Adding Rights to Public Folders (Recursively)
KB ID 0001598 Problem After a recent Exchange migration (2007 > 2013 > 2016), I had problems with users not being able to see public folders, one user could see them all, (so I know they were present and correct, content wise,) but other users could not even see them. Normally in this situation I’d test them in Outlook Web App first, if they work there then look at Outlook, but Public folders just didn’t work in...
