Hey #mysql thing-knowers. I've just installed mysql 9.2, and #php 8 on a #WindowsServer. When I try to use mysqli_connect in my php application I get the error `mysqli_connect(): The server requested authentication method unknown to the client [caching_sha2_password]`
On the mysql side the user is identified with caching_sha2_password. All the answers to this problem I've found seem to be quite old, and they all recommend altering the user to `mysql_native_password`. This seems like a retrograde step, but I gave it a go, and when I tried to do that I got `Error 1524 HY0000: Plugin mysql_native_password is not loaded`.
I know exactly enough mysql and php to cause headaches for people who know what they're doing, is anyone able to help out?

I have been using #WindowsServer Core as a development VM, because I need to test my program for Windows users. I know this isn't recommended, because Server Core doesn't have much of a GUI, and is missing a lot of GUI-related libraries, so some stuff doesn't work right, however, VSCode (and Visual Studio) work just fine, and I've been getting by with Powershell, 7zfm, Retrobar (substitute taskbar), and Floorp (Firefox mod). The GTK version of #VICEEmulator doesn't work, so I've been using the SDL2 one.

I think I like this in some ways more than using actual Windows. It's definitely lightweight. I wish that it had DirectX support so I could try running games with it

When I run `wsl --install`, I get the error …

WSL2 is not supported with your current machine configuration.
Please enable the "Virtual Machine Platform" optional component and ensure virtualization is enabled in the BIOS.
Enable "Virtual Machine Platform" by running: wsl.exe --install --no-distribution

... and I can run `wsl.exe --install --no-distribution` to get around it, but I still can't install a Linux distro. :blobcatthink:

To upgrade, or not to upgrade, that is the question. 🤔 If you’re trying to decide if or when to do a Feature Update, then these best practices for troubleshooting a #WindowsServer upgrade might help you. 👀

So, one install, no GPOs work at all, and another install Some GPOs work, as long as they have the filter set to Authenticated Users.

If i set filtering to run if a user is a member of a group it's no go.

I've watched countless "Map network drive with GPOs" videos on youtube, according to them i do nothing wrong - but none of it works!

If this crap doesn't resolve soon, i'm gonna write a netlogon script as i did for Windows NT 4 about 20 years ago... the shares work, i can map them manually with net use, so that isn't it.

Fuck i hate inconsistencies like this.

There is NOTHING different from the systems and using shadow groups - or not, and the location of groups (root, ou, bathroom, outer space) doesn't matter, shit still doesn't work.
