Dunning Kruger. Big time. He sent me a screenshot of a softperfect network scan result that showed our machine on that ip and see? there’s no clash!!!
…meanwhile, being an actual tech I ran down the hostnames and I noticed I could not see his dolby on the list of devices. I could see our DDU had its internet interface up, so I jumped onto it via our tunnel, hopped into the logs and took a big fat screenshot of “ERROR: ANOTHER DEVICE IS USING THE IP ADDRESS ASSIGNED TO INTERFACE “MEDIA” PLEASE CONTACT YOUR NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR” and sent it back
dont you just LOVE when non-IT people think they know better than IT people on IT related things?
