Check if when the mac is running your windows machine got it's ip from the mac and not from the router. in some cases mac can have dhcpd running on it, if that is the case you should disable it if you do not need it. 2. Check if homegroup is enabled on win10, if it is disable it (by version 1803 it is no longer active by default, but you could have hacked to enable it). ___ >>> Linux-il mailing list >>> Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il >>> http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il >>> >> ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
OT: looking for a job
Hello guys and girls I apoiogize if this isn't the place for it, but I've been offline for a long time, and this seems to be the only israeli-tech-list still active in my mailbox. You are more than wellcome to redirect me to a propper channle (is LinkedIn a real thing?) As the headline says - i'm in the market for a job. Been happily doing non-tech stuff for the last few years, but with Obiquitus Omicron, here I am. So: *C.V will be sent per request, here is my general direction, both ways:* *Desired job includes mainly getting paid for being useful without catching COVID (I'm at risk if I catch it.)* I would like to do something that I think is cool, but thats really just a wish and not a demand. Anything from a short gig to a full time long term at something you teach me from scratch may be fine. *Skills*: nothing unusual: I can Bash, I can Vi. git, Apache and SQL are no strangers though may need some reminding. I can install stuff (OS's, servers, stuff) I can even uninstall stuff sometimes (; I have in my past academic programing courses which I enjoyed but never deployed on a job. I've been a linux user since the late 90's both for work and personal purposes. I have a general understanding of how the internet was said to work before street lamp posts started double as amazon-anywhere spyware hotspots (generic term, not updated on their trademarks and specks). Am I embarrasing myself right now? Probably (: But I think you get the idea. Old Knowledge, but I can and like to learn and expand. Especially if you teach well and pay well for it. I currently live in the north, I have a car and am not afraid to use it. Would rather not be obligated to be exposed to offices at all, but would sit with careful and vaccinated bunch in a not-stuffy place, with masks fully on. Maybe. Depends. Thanx for reading, thanx for linuxing, lemme know if you have something relevant. Cheers Ma'ayan. ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Being an Oleh Hadash who just wanted to hit the easy button six months ago, I also have the Hot modem/router. It lease a bit to be desired, e.g. I could figure out how to properly get it to use my PiHole as the DNS server on my home network (could never find the option in the software), and I also couldn't get it to just run as a modem and let me use my old German DSL modem/router (a FritzBox and another easy button moment) as the home network router (because I could at least configure that to my heart's content). So, are there suggestions/recommendations for how to reconfigure things, especially as pertains to hardware running OpenWRT or another free/libre alternative? ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il Thanks all, Fuller Mark E.
