<div>'''Microsoft Windows''' is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft. The first version was released on November 20, 1985. Currently, Windows 10 is one of the most popular operating systems around the world.<br />
<br />
Because of its heavy usage around the world, and since pretty much everyone knows how to use it, Windows is a popular choice for use with hosting a VM on CollabVM. <br />

<div>'''Microsoft Windows''' is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft. The first version was released on November 20, 1985. Currently, Windows 10 is one of the most popular operating systems around the world.<br />
<br />
Because of its heavy usage around the world, and since pretty much everyone knows how to use it, Windows is a popular choice for use with hosting a VM on CollabVM. <br />

<div>'''Microsoft Windows''' is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft. The first version was released on November 20, 1985. Currently, Windows 10 is one of the most popular operating systems around the world.<br />
<br />
Because of its heavy usage around the world, and since pretty much everyone knows how to use it, Windows is a popular choice for use with hosting a VM on CollabVM. <br />

<br />
The '''Wii Forecast Channel''' was a channel available to WiiConnect24 users. It launched in November of 2006 and closed in 2013.<br />
<br />
With services like RiiConnect24 and WiiLink, you can revive this channel and use it just like before, but if you're a nerd like me and want to add your own locations, you'll need to do some hacking. Fortunately it's pretty easy so long as you're a little tech savvy.<br />
<br />
== What do we need? ==<br />
You will need:<br />
* Sharpii<br />
* Some sort of hex editor<br />
* A web server that can serve files<br />
* The latest dev build of the Dolphin emulator or a WAD installer if you're on an actual Wii<br />
<br />
== Patching the WAD ==<br />
Get the latest release of Sharpii here: https://github.com/mogzol/sharpii/releases and extract it somewhere.<br />
<br />
Get v7.0 of the Forecast Channel from Vimm's Lair: https://vimm.net/vault/35825 for the US version or https://vimm.net/vault/35820 for the European version. Put the WAD in the same folder as Sharpii. Open cmd or a Linux terminal, cd to the folder with Sharpii, and type the following command:<br />
<br />
<pre>sharpii wad -u "Forecast Channel (USA) (v7) (Channel).wad" unpacked/</pre><br />
<br />
If all was successful you should have a folder named <code>unpacked</code> with a bunch of .app files. We want to specifically open <code>00000001.app</code> with a hex editor.<br />
<br />
Go to offset 0x00194ea0 (or do a search for <code>http://weather.wapp.wii.com</code>) and you should see the URL.<br />
<br />
[[File:WiiForecast Tutorial 1.png|700px]]<br />
<br />
We need to replace this with our web server. It can be any URL - an IP, a website, etc. I replaced the url with <code>http://computernewb.com/pad/</code>:<br />
<br />
[[File:WiiForecast Tutorial 2.png|700px]]<br />
<br />
Thankfully the Forecast Channel doesn't mind if it's been tampered with, so we don't have to do any additional modification. <br />
<br />
Save the file and close the hex editor. Repack the WAD using Sharpii:<br />
<br />
<pre>sharpii.exe wad -p unpacked\ Patched.wad</pre><br />
<br />
The WAD should now be patched. To install it in Dolphin, open Dolphin and click Tools -> Install WAD... and locate the file. Before doing that, make sure you have Wii System Menu installed, because we'll need it to actually use the Forecast Channel. (If you install the WAD before installing the System Menu, you'll have to install it again because the System Menu update will overwrite the Forecast Channel files.)<br />
<br />
To install the System Menu go to Tools -> Perform System Online Update -> Current Region.<br />
<br />
== Generating the files ==<br />
Ok, now that we've patched the WAD, we now need to get some files to actually serve the Forecast Channel. The easiest tool I've found for this is WiiLink's [https://github.com/WiiLink24/ForecastChannel ForecastChannel] generator. It requires Go and an Accuweather API key. So the first thing is to download Go and add it to your PATH. Then clone the repository and run the following command:<br />
<br />
<code>go mod download</code><br />
<br />
Then we'll need to edit <code>accuweather\requests.go</code> and add our API key. You can either generate one on AccuWeather's website or *wink* *nudge* find one on Google.<br />
<br />
We'll need to generate a certificate for the Forecast Channel's files, so just go to the root ForecastChannel folder and generate the certificate using openssl (you'll need to install it on Windows): <code>openssl genrsa -traditional -out Private.pem 2048</code><br />
<br />
Now for the more annoying part of this project... By default it has a HUGE <code>weather.xml</code> file with a ton of different countries that you very likely don't need. My advice is, backup the file, wipe out the original and replace it with an empty-ish version like this...<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><br />
<country><br />
<name jpn="アメリカ" eng="United States" de="Vereinigte Staaten" fr="Etats-Unis d’Amérique" es="Estados Unidos de América" it="Stati Uniti d'America" nl="Verenigde Staten" /><br />
<city jpn="ワシントンD.C." eng="Washington D.C." de="Washington, D.C." fr="Washington" es="Washington D. C." it="Washington" nl="Washington D.C."><br />
<province jpn="コロンビア特別区" eng="District of Columbia" de="District of Columbia" fr="District Fédéral de Washington D.C." es="Distrito de Columbia" it="Distretto di Columbia" nl="District of Columbia" /><br />
<longitude>-77.0361328125</longitude><br />
<latitude>38.8916015625</latitude><br />
<zoom1>8</zoom1><br />
<zoom2>3</zoom2><br />
</city><br />
</country><br />
<international><br />
<city><br />
<province jpn="東京都" eng="Tokyo" de="Tokio" fr="Tokyo" es="Tokio" it="Tokyo" nl="Tokio" /><br />
<longitude>139.7625732421875</longitude><br />
<latitude>35.68359375</latitude><br />
<zoom1>9</zoom1><br />
<zoom2>3</zoom2><br />
<country jpn="日本" eng="Japan" de="Japan" fr="Japon" es="Japón" it="Giappone" nl="Japan" /><br />
<name jpn="東京" eng="Tokyo" de="Tokio" fr="Tokyo" es="Tokio" it="Tokyo" nl="Tokio" /><br />
</city><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
etc etc...<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
...and then copy your respective <code><country></code> tag from the backed up file, as well as the <code><international></code> and <code><conditions></code> tags. This will GREATLY speed up the process and will reduce the amount of API calls you use.<br />
<br />
To add a location, it's pretty easy. Just copy and paste the <code><city></code> tag and fill out the information. If you put it in the international category, you won't be able to get the UV index or 5-day forecast for the location due to a limitation in the software. <br />
<br />
Example of adding the South Pole in Antarctica:<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><br />
<international><br />
<city><br />
<province jpn="" eng="" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /><br />
<longitude>0.0000</longitude><br />
<latitude>-90.0000</latitude><br />
<zoom1>9</zoom1><br />
<zoom2>3</zoom2><br />
<country jpn="" eng="Antarctica" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /><br />
<name jpn="" eng="The South Pole" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /><br />
</city><br />
</international><br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Bit of a breakdown of the above:<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><province jpn="" eng="" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
This is the province (or state, or what have you) that will display when you wait a few seconds on the weather information screen. So if you were doing Atlanta, Georgia, USA, you'd put "Georgia" in the eng attribute. The different attributes (jpn, de, fr, es, it, nl) are for Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Dutch localizations. Personally I always just leave those blank because I only use the English version, but if you're making your Forecast Channel public, I'd translate them just in case.<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><longitude>0.0000</longitude></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
The Longitude of the location. You can get this from Geonames, Google Maps, etc<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><latitude>-90.0000</latitude></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
The Latitude of the location. Again you can get this from Geonames, Google Maps, and other places<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><zoom1>9</zoom1></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
This is how much you will have to zoom out of the map before you stop seeing the location. <code>9</code> means its visible at all times, even if you're fully zoomed out. <code>0</code> means you have to be fully zoomed in to see it. For local locations, I recommend making it 0, but for really important international locations, <code>9</code> is good. If you don't know what zoom to make it <code>4</code> is usually a good compromise.<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><zoom2>3</zoom2></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Honestly, I have no idea. It seems to be always set at "3" though so I just leave it.<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><country jpn="" eng="Antarctica" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
Pretty self explanatory. Name of the country which will show up in the forecast information.<br />
<br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml"><name jpn="" eng="The South Pole" de="" fr="" es="" it="" nl="" /></syntaxhighlight><br />
<br />
The name of the city. This is what will appear on the map.<br />
<br />
When you've added the locations you want you can then generate the files like this:<br />
<br />
<pre>go run .</pre><br />
<br />
and it will generate the files. It'll make a folder called files which will contain everything we need for the Forecast Channel to work. Put the contents of this folder wherever you pointed the Forecast Channel to be on your web server. Start Dolphin and if everything worked you should be given an option to choose your location.<br />
<br />
If you get a <code>FORE00006</code>, something is wrong with the generated files (debugging this can be very tricky unfortunately; I had to remove a few custom locations I added that weren't working for some reason) or your Wii clock is set wrong. If you get an error like "WiiConnect24 cannot be used" then either your files are either 403ing or 404ing which is usually caused by a permissions issue (make sure they can be accessed through the web), or your Dolphin version is too old - make sure to use the latest dev build.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

'''Oracle Solaris''' is a Unix-like operating system originally developed by Sun Microsystems, now developed by Oracle under the name Oracle Solaris.<br />
<br />
Typically, Solaris releases have occurred every 5 years, though this has changed in recent years as Solaris has not seen a version increment since 2010. The lifespan of Solaris releases are known for being extremely long; they are typically supported for around 15 years.<br />
<br />
You can check which version of Solaris you're running by using the command <code>cat /etc/release</code>.<br />

[[Category:End of Life Dates]]</div>Dartzhttps://computernewb.com/w/index.php?title=CollabBot&diff=3537CollabBot2024-01-18T06:38:11Z<p>Dartz: original purpose was what?</p>
<hr />
<div>[[file:collabbotprofile.png|frame|CollabBot as it appears on the CollabVM Discord.]]<br />
<br />
'''CollabBot''' is a custom-made Discord bot by [[Dartz]] for the [[CollabVM Discord|Official CollabVM Discord]]. It is currently on version 1.05, and was created on June 19, 2018. The original purpose was to control an SSH server through Discord, but this has been retired, and nowadays, its mainly used for [[VNC Resolver]].<br />
<br />
== Functionality ==<br />
CollabBot commands are followed by the prefix +, and the bot currently only has access to the #collabbot channel on the official CollabVM Server. Other servers may vary. The +help output is as follows:<br />
<br />
List of commands:<br />
;'''+changelog'''<br />
: Will pull up a list of recent changes.<br />
;'''+exec (command)'''<br />
: Will execute any valid Linux command you put in, although this sometimes may not work - try +reconnect or starting a vote reset<br />
;'''+help'''<br />
: Will show the help dialogue (todo: make it so you can type +help (command) to get info on a command)<br />
;'''+invite'''<br />
: Will give a link to add CollabBot to your server.<br />
;'''+ports'''<br />
: Will list the currently open ports on the VM.ver.<br />
;'''+password'''<br />
: Will post the default password for the machine.<br />
;'''+reconnect'''<br />
: The bot will attempt to reconnect to SSH. Try using this if commands are not working.<br />
;'''+reset'''<br />
: Reset the VM to a clean state instantly without waiting for a vote reset. (CollabBot Admins only)<br />
;'''+rules'''<br />
: View the rules for the bot<br />
;'''+screenshot'''<br />
: Takes a screenshot of the open VNC and posts it to the server. (Requires image posting permissions)<br />
;'''+ssh (ip) (port) (username) (password)'''<br />
: Connects the bot to the specified SSH server. Example: +ssh computernewb.com 24 dartz somepassword (CollabBot Admins only)<br />
;'''+vnc'''<br />
: Prints a randomly insecure VNC server that was found by CollabBot. A new insecure VNC database is uploaded every few months.<br />
;'''+votereset'''<br />
: Works just like CollabVM - it starts a vote reset to reset the VM to a clean state.<br />
<br />
Due to the limitations of Discord, text is very limited and may result in garbage output, as well as there being no support for graphics beyond the VNC screenshotting. Because text output is limited to 20><br />
<br />
The bot is not limited to the CollabVM Official Server - it can be invited onto any Discord server. Some commands may be limited on non-CollabVM servers. The invite for CollabBot is here: https://discorda><br />
<br />
The bot is currently running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and has open ports on port 24 (SSH), 5900 (VNC), and 6000 for general use. It requires no Discord permissions in order to function.<br />
<br />
==Moderation==<br />
<br />
In addition to Dartz, and potentially other global Discord admins, normal users can become CollabBot admins if they are given the 'CollabBot' admin role, at the discretion of Dartz. Currently, the only Co><br />
<br />
==CollabBot 2.0==<br />
An updated version of CollabBot, CollabBot 2.00, is currently in development. It is mostly rewritten and has new code and a few new commands. The new commands are:<br />
<br />
;'''+commands'''<br />
: Basically the same as +help on CollabBot 1.<br />
<br />
;'''+randomcolor'''<br />
: Generates a random hex color<br />
<br />
;'''+help (command)'''<br />
: Gives a detailed description on a certain command. This is not the same as +help from CollabBot v1, that has been renamed to +commands.<br />
<br />
;'''+ping'''<br />
: Bot will respond with pong. Can be used to test if the bot is online/responding to commands.<br />
<br />
;'''+serverinfo'''<br />
: Gives information about the current server<br />
<br />
The following commands have been updated:<br />
*'''+exec''' - Now informs you if there is an error with ssh instead of just blanking out. Also uses color.<br />
*'''+rules''' - Rules are now much more detailed and colorful.<br />

'''socket.computer''' was a website which was similar to [[CollabVM]]. The site was part of the many demos available on socket.io.<br />
<br />
CollabVM used the socket.computer engine for CollabVM v1.0, but there were some notable changes.<br />
<br />
*CollabVM's design differed from socket.computer's.<br />
*socket.computer ran Windows XP while CollabVM ran many different operating systems, which ranged from Windows 95 OSR2 to Windows 7 Ultimate.<br />
*CollabVM did not have the laptop image present, and was scaled fully.<br />
*CollabVM had a chatroom added<br />
*socket.computer reset every 15 minutes. The component which made the VM reset every 15 minutes was not enabled.<br />
*Several vulnerabilities were fixed.<br />
<br />
==Shutdown timeline==<br />
*October 9, 2016: socket.computer's freezes, and the server stops responding. This outage also affected socket.io's chat, as well as weplay.io. This makes October 9, 2016 at 11:25 PM (EST) the last known time socket.computer and weplay.io was online. <br />
*February 19, 2017: socket.io goes offline for unknown reasons.<br />
*March 5, 2017: After socket.io was offline for several weeks, the site came back online, with the demos page missing from socket.io entirely. socket.computer and weplay.io remain in a frozen state.<br />
*March 18, 2017: The demos page finally returns to socket.io. The socket.io chat makes a return, along with a brand new demo, a collaborative whiteboard. weplay.io and socket.computer are removed, so this can be declared the "official" shut down date for both projects.<br />
*Sometime in August 2017: socket.computer and weplay.io's web server stops responding. Pings also fail.<br />
*Sometime in early January 2018: weplay.io no longer belongs to an IP address, indicating the project has been permanently closed. socket.computer still belongs to an IP address at this point, although the site's IP had not responded to any pings since August 2017. <br />
*Sometime in July 2018: socket.computer no longer belongs to any IP address.<br />
*August 25, 2018: socket.computer's domain expires and is now up for sale, confirming the project is permanently closed.<br />
*February 2019: socket.computer now redirects to a parked domain.<br />
*February 2020: Parked domain is not renewed, and socket.computer is now for sale.<br />
*11:11:16AM EST February 6th, 2020: Dartz purchases the socket.computer domain.<br />
<br />
CollabVM has several virtual machines, including one known as "VM 2" that runs Windows XP SP3. It has almost the same specifications as the socket.computer VM (has more RAM and a better CPU), but it is much faster and has several more programs preinstalled. If you are looking for a socket.computer alternative, you will want to check it out.<br />
<br />
==The story of socket.computer==<br />
Long ago, there was a website simply known as socket.computer, which used to be a demo for socket.io. It hosted a singular virtual machine running the Operating System Windows XP.<br />
<br />
The site was never known for being very functional. Very frequently, it would break, the resets would stop working and months would go by before Kevin Roark fixed it.<br />
<br />
However, on one fateful dry and cool October evening, the site came to a full stop.<br />
<br />
It still has not been explained to this day why socket.computer was permanently shut down.<br />
<br />
Perhaps it was the owner getting '''tired''', or maybe, it was ''the endless amount of exploits.''<br />
<br />
As some people may know, the site may have been... lacking in security, ''' <i>severely</i> lacking in security.'''<br />
<br />
An endless amount of time ''they'' know as "Turns"?<br />
<br />
Perhaps a direct access to the main heart and core ''they'' also call "QEMU"?<br />
<br />
The rumor has it that the <i>old '''socket.computer'''</i> stopped working after one of its so called "resets" was the last thing the site had ever seen.<br />
<br />
These resets were known to happen just <i>only</i> 15 minutes after one had already occurred.<br />
<br />
And after that unknowingly last reset happened, it was the end.<br />

*Sometime in August 2017: socket.computer and weplay.io no longer load any page and stop responding to pings.<br />
*Sometime in early January 2018: weplay.io no longer belongs to an IP address, indicating the project has been permanently closed. socket.computer still belongs to an IP address at this point, although the site's IP had not responded to any pings since August 2017. <br />
*Sometime in July 2018: socket.computer no longer belongs to any IP address.<br />
*August 25, 2018: socket.computer's domain expires and is now up for sale, confirming the project is permanently closed.<br />
*February 2019: socket.computer now redirects to a parked domain.<br />
*February 2020: Parked domain is not renewed, and socket.computer is now for sale.<br />
*11:11:16AM EST February 6th, 2020: Dartz purchases the socket.computer domain.<br />

CollabVM has several virtual machines, including one known as "VM 2" that runs Windows XP SP3. It has almost the same specifications as the socket.computer VM (has more RAM and a better CPU), but it is much faster and has several things like Microsoft Office, Firefox, Chrome, all Windows XP Themes, a [[Escargot|patched MSN Messenger]], and more all pre-installed. If you are looking for a socket.computer alternative, you will want to check it out.<br />
<br />
==The story of socket.computer==<br />
Long ago, there was a website simply known as socket.computer, which used to be a demo for socket.io. It hosted a singular virtual machine running the Operating System Windows XP.<br />
<br />
The site was never known for being very functional. Very frequently, it would break, the resets would stop working and months would go by before Kevin Roark fixed it.<br />
<br />
However, on one fateful dry and cool October evening, the site came to a full stop.<br />
<br />
It still has not been explained to this day why socket.computer was permanently shut down.<br />
<br />
Perhaps it was the owner getting '''tired''', or maybe, it was ''the endless amount of exploits.''<br />
<br />
As some people may know, the site may have been... lacking in security, ''' <i>severely</i> lacking in security.'''<br />
<br />
An endless amount of time ''they'' know as "Turns"?<br />
<br />
Perhaps a direct access to the main heart and core ''they'' also call "QEMU"?<br />
<br />
The rumor has it that the <i>old '''socket.computer'''</i> stopped working after one of its so called "resets" was the last thing the site had ever seen.<br />
<br />
These resets were known to happen just <i>only</i> 15 minutes after one had already occurred.<br />
<br />
And after that unknowingly last reset happened, it was the end.<br />
<br />
'''The end of socket.computer'''.<br />

'''Windows Server''', formerly known as Windows NT Server, is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft, first released in 1991 with "Windows NT 3.1 Advanced Server". As the name suggests, these are the server variations of Microsoft Windows, and are intended for mission critical tasks.<br />
<br />
Stable releases of Windows Server are typically every 3-4 years, and versions of Windows Server are typically supported for about 10 years. Certain versions of Windows Server allow users to purchase a paid support plan which will extend the updates by up to 4 years. This plan is included with Microsoft Azure purchases.<br />
<br />
You can check what Windows Server version you have by opening cmd and typing <code>ver</code>.<br />

==Servicing channels==<br />
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:<br />
<br />
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)<br />
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)<br />
<br />
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.<br />
<br />
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===<br />
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.<br />
<br />
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===<br />
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.<br />

==Servicing channels==<br />
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:<br />
<br />
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)<br />
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)<br />
<br />
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.<br />
<br />
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===<br />
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.<br />
<br />
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===<br />
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.<br />

'''Oracle Solaris''' is a Unix-like operating system originally developed by Sun Microsystems, now developed by Oracle under the name Oracle Solaris.<br />
<br />
Typically, Solaris releases have occurred every 5 years, though this has changed in recent years as Solaris has not seen a version increment since 2010. The lifespan of Solaris releases are known for being extremely long; they are typically supported for around 15 years.<br />
<br />
You can check which version of Solaris you're running by using the command <code>cat /etc/release</code>.<br />

{{DISPLAYTITLE:How to install Windows 3.1 in QEMU}}<br />
[[File:31Desktop.png|thumb|The Windows 3.1 desktop.]]<br />
'''Windows 3.1''' is an operating system created and released by Microsoft in April 1992. This release was notable as it was the first version of Windows to gain notable attention - previous releases were very niche and weren't widely used. <br />
<br />
There were a few editions of Windows 3.1; Windows 3.1 for Central and Eastern Europe (adds Cyrillic support), Modular Windows (which ran on the Tandy VIS), embOS (embedded version), Windows 3.11 for Workgroups (adds networking support), Windows 3.11 (a very rare kernel update that didn't have the networking support), and finally, Windows 3.2, which is a Simplifed Chinese localization of 3.1. <br />
<br />
This article will cover how to set up Windows 3.11 with mouse drivers, sound, network, and full graphics, but it should work for all versions of Windows 3.1.<br />
<br />
==Before you start==<br />
Windows 3.1 depends on DOS, and it must be installed before you can run it - the minimum being DOS 3.1 for Windows 3.1, and DOS 3.30 for Windows 3.11. See [[QEMU/Guests/Windows_1.x-2.x#Installing_MS-DOS_3.30|this page]] for more information. It will also work on DOS 6.22 and modern versions of FreeDOS.<br />
<br />
386 enhanced mode works in QEMU but it can be a bit buggy on certain systems. If it freezes for you try running <code>WIN /S</code> at the DOS prompt to disable it.<br />
<br />
You can find the Windows 3.11 and MS-DOS floppy disks on either WinWorldPC or [https://www.kirsle.net/msdos Kirsle].<br />
<br />
==Installation==<br />
===Pre-Installation===<br />
Make an image by opening the Terminal (or Command Prompt) and typing this:<br />
<pre>qemu-img create -f qcow2 win31.img 150M</pre><br />
<br />
[[How to create a disk image in QEMU|See this page for more information on how this command works.]]<br />
<br />
You should see an output like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:QEMU Img Created.png|500px]]<br />
<br />
Now we're ready to go.<br />
<br />
===Installation===<br />
Next, we start QEMU like this:<br />
<pre>qemu-system-i386 -cpu 486 -m 16 -hda win31.img -fda /path/to/DOS/disk1.img -nic user,model=rtl8139,ipv6=off -vga vmware -usb -device usb-tablet -device sb16</pre><br />
<br />
Breakdown of the above command: <code>qemu-system-i386</code> is the name of the QEMU emulator, obviously. <code>-cpu 486</code> specifies our CPU - in this case, the Intel 486. You can run <code>-cpu ?</code> for a full list. <code>-m 16</code> sets the memory, in this case, 16 MB of RAM. <code>-hda win31.img</code> is the hard drive. <code>-fda /path/to/DOS/disk1.img</code> is adding a floppy drive, which needs to be changed to point to the first DOS floppy disk. <code>-nic user,model=rtl8139,ipv6=off</code> adds a virtual NIC (in this case, the 10 mb/s Realtek 8139C+ Fast Ethernet card). We disable ipv6 since it won't work in 3.11. <code>-vga vmware</code> adds an emulated VMWare SVGA card to the VM. <code>-usb</code> adds a USB controller. <code>-device usb-tablet</code> adds a USB tablet device. And finally, <code>-device sb16</code> adds a SoundBlaster 16 sound card to the system.<br />
<br />
Once DOS is installed its recommended to install [https://computernewb.com/QEMU/dosidle.img DOSIdle] which will stop DOS from using all CPU when idle. To install it, download the linked file, start QEMU, press Ctrl-ALT-2 and type <code>change floppy0 /path/to/dosidle.img</code> then press CTRL-ALT-1 to switch back. Load DOSIdle like so:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
C:\>a:<br />
A:\>dosidle<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Next its time to install Windows 3.1. Insert the Windows 3.1 floppy in a similar manner to the DOSIdle floppy, by pressing Ctrl-Alt-2 (or going to the View -> compatmonitor0), typing <code>change floppy0 /path/to/WfW311-1.img</code>, and pressing Ctrl-Alt-1 (or going to View -> VGA). With that, its time to load the setup:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
C:\>a:<br />
A:\>setup<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
If all goes well, you should see a screen like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup.png]]<br />
<br />
Hit enter. Choose express setup. Change floppies as necessary, and fill out all the info (you don't need the Product Number). Skip installing the printer. <br />
<br />
===Networking setup===<br />
'''If you are installing Windows 3.1 without Workgroups/networking, you can skip these steps.'''<br />
<br />
Eventually, you'll reach the "Network Setup" screen. Click on "Networks..." and make sure that "Install Microsoft Windows Network" is ticked.<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup2.png]]<br />
<br />
Hit OK and then hit Continue. You'll then reach a screen like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup3.png]]<br />
<br />
Make sure "Unlisted or Updated Network Adapter" is selected, and click OK. Download [https://computernewb.com/QEMU/rtl8139.img the RTL8139 floppy disk driver], and insert it into QEMU (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/rtl8139.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1), set the path to "A:\", make sure "Realtek 8139 Fast Ethernet Adapter" comes up, and click OK.<br />
<br />
You'll reach a window asking for the username, workgroup, etc. You can change the info or leave it as default, it doesn't matter too much. Finish off the rest of the install (you may have to insert the rtl8139.img floppy again a few times), skip the tutorial, and choose "Restart Computer". In the DOS prompt, type <code>WIN</code> to start Windows. If all went well, you should be here:<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup4.png]]<br />
<br />
This window above will set your password if its your first time logging in, so make sure its something you'll remember. You can just leave it blank if wanted. Next, we'll get TCP/IP working. Windows 3.11 didn't come with support for TCP/IP so we'll have to install it manually.<br />
<br />
[https://computernewb.com/QEMU/tcpip.img Download this floppy] and save it somewhere. Insert it into QEMU (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/tcpip.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1). Go to Main -> Windows Setup (on the first bootup that should already be open) -> Options -> Change Network Settings<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup5.png]]<br />
<br />
From here, click "Drivers..." and then click "Add Protocol...". Make sure "Unlisted or Updated Protocol" is selected, then hit OK. On the next window make sure "Microsoft TCP/IP-32 3.11b" is selected then hit OK.<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup6.png]]<br />
<br />
If all goes well, it should install several applications, and TCP/IP should be ready to go. A configuration prompt will pop up. DHCP can be a bit finnicky, so if it doesn't work, you can try the following config:<br />
<br />
*IP Address: 10.0.2.15<br />
*Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0<br />
*Default Gateway: 10.0.2.2<br />
<br />
Once this is all done, if everything worked as it should, you should have internet access!<br />
<br />
===Mouse setup===<br />
The mouse setup is pretty simple. This step is optional. <br />
<br />
[https://computernewb.com/QEMU/vmmouse.img Download the vmmouse floppy driver]. Insert it into QEMU (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/vmmouse.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1). Go to Main -> Windows Setup -> Options -> Change System Settings. Click on the Mouse dropdown, and scroll down until you see "Other mouse (Requires disk from OEM)". Set the path to <code>A:\</code>. You should see "VMware mouse" (even though we're on QEMU, the tablet device is backwards compatible with the VMware mouse). Select it and hit OK. Make sure its selected in the dropdown, hit OK, and restart Windows.<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup7.png]]<br />
<br />
You should now have a smooth mouse!<br />
<br />
===VGA setup===<br />
Now we'll set up the generic SVGA driver which will allow for up to 256 colors. [https://computernewb.com/QEMU/SVGA.img Download the SVGA floppy driver]. Insert it into QEMU (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/SVGA.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1). Go to MS-DOS prompt, type <code>A:</code>, and type <code>VGAPATCH P</code>. This will patch the generic VGA driver to work with QEMU. Type <code>exit</code> and go back to Windows. Go to Main -> Windows Setup -> Options -> Change System Settings, click on the "Display" dropdown, and scroll down until you see "Other display (requires disk from OEM)". Set the path to A: and select any resolution from ET4000 (not Super VGA!). You can go up to 1024x768 with 256 colors. I chose 800x600 with 256 colors. <br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup8.png]]<br />
<br />
Click OK, Click OK again, and restart Windows. If all went well, it should now work!<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup9.png|600px]]<br />
<br />
===Sound Card setup===<br />
And finally, we'll set up the sound card. Fortunately, it's even easier than all the previous steps! Go to Main -> Control Panel -> Drivers -> Add... and scroll on the List of Drivers until you find Creative Labs Sound Blaster 1.5. Select it and hit OK.<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup10.png]]<br />
<br />
Insert WfW 3.11 Disk 5 and hit OK. On the Sound Blaster Setup, choose Port 220 and Interrupt 5.<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup11.png]]<br />
<br />
Ignore the warning, and restart Windows. If all goes well, you should hear the startup chime. You can double check by going to Control Panel -> Sound and testing one of the wav sounds.<br />
<br />
==What's next?==<br />
That's it! We now have a full Windows 3.11 installation with networking, sound, a smooth mouse, and 4:3 256 color support! From here, you can install some abandonware, some games, or even just some old software your company still depends on for some reason. Enjoy.<br />

<br />
You should see an output like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:QEMU Img Created.png|500px]]<br />
<br />
Now we're ready to go.<br />
<br />
===Installation===<br />
Next, we start QEMU like this:<br />
<pre>qemu-system-i386 -cpu 486 -m 16 -hda win31.img -fda /path/to/DOS/disk1.img -nic user,model=rtl8139,ipv6=off -vga vmware -usb -device usb-tablet -device sb16</pre><br />

Hit OK and then hit Continue. You'll then reach a screen like this:<br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup3.png]]<br />
<br />
Make sure "Unlisted or Updated Network Adapter" is selected, and click OK. Download [https://computernewb.com/QEMU/rtl8139.img the RTL8139 floppy disk driver], and insert it into QEMU (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/rtl8139.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1), set the path to "A:\", make sure "Realtek 8139 Fast Ethernet Adapter" comes up, and click OK.<br />

===VGA setup===<br />
Now we'll set up the generic SVGA driver which will allow for up to 256 colors. [https://computernewb.com/QEMU/SVGA.img Download the SVGA floppy driver]. Insert it into QEMU as always (CTRL-ALT-2 -> <code>change floppy0 /path/to/SVGA.img</code> -> CTRL-ALT-1). Go to MS-DOS prompt, type <code>A:</code>, and type <code>VGAPATCH P</code>. This will patch the generic VGA driver to work with QEMU. Type <code>exit</code> and go back to Windows. Go to Main -> Windows Setup -> Options -> Change System Settings, click on the "Display" dropdown, and scroll down until you see "Other display (requires disk from OEM)". Set the path to A: and select any resolution from ET4000 (not Super VGA!). You can go up to 1024x768 with 256 colors. I chose 800x600 with 256 colors. <br />
<br />
[[File:WFW Setup8.png]]<br />
<br />
Click OK, Click OK again, and restart Windows. If all went well, it should now work!<br />

<br />
Ignore the warning, and restart Windows. If all goes well, you should hear the startup chime. You can double check by going to Control Panel -> Sound and testing one of the wav sounds.<br />
<br />
==What's next?==<br />
That's it! We now have a full Windows 3.11 installation with networking, sound, a smooth mouse, and 4:3 256 color support! From here, you can install some abandonware, some games, or even just some old software your company still depends on for some reason. Enjoy.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''Item #:''' 3152<br />
<br />
'''Object Class:''' Keter<br />
<br />
'''Special Containment Procedures:''' Any personnel suspected to have come into contact with SCP-3151 are to be immediately detained and screened for SCP-3152. If an infection is determined, the person is to be immediately placed into solitary confinement to prevent spread of the pathogen. They are to be placed under maximum security and given periodic psychological screenings.<br />
<br />
'''Description''': SCP-3152, commonly referred to as "CollabVM Syndrome", is a memetic brain disease spread through computer systems. The disease has only been observed to spread via contact with [[User:Dartz/Drafts/SCP-3151|SCP-3151]] ("CollabVM"), hence its name. This disease is extremely contagious; it has been observed to spread through only two minutes of contact with the aforemented computer systems. <br />
<br />
During the first few days of infection, the "host" (hereby designated SCP-3152-1) will begin to observe mild usage of "Collabology", which consists primarily of suffixing common English words with the word "-fag" (i.e. "rebootfag", "closefag", and on rare occasions, "fagfag"). No other symptoms are present by this point.<br />
<br />
Approximately one to three weeks after the initial infection, SCP-3152-1 will become more obsessed with "forking"<ref>Typically through deleting critical system files or by running malicious software.</ref> virtual machines, specifically one from SCP-3151, and begin to show symptoms similar to those of mild bipolar disorder. Their usage of "Collabology" dramatically increases. SCP-3152-1 will also develop a hatred for SCP-3151's "administrators", becoming particularly belligerent if "Hildaboo" or any variation of that name is mentioned.<ref>I swear to God, the next person who screams "HILDABOO!" at one of these freaks is getting assigned to 682 duty. I've had to replace 17 god damn keyboards THIS WEEK. Did I mention it's only Tuesday? -Dr ████</ref><br />
<br />
One month after infection, the disease will begin to impair SCP-3152-1's normal bodily and cognitive functions. Their grasp on their native language will degenerate to a point where they can only form and understand elementary-level sentences, and their use of "Collabology" increases to a point where nearly every word they use is suffixed with the word "-fag". The compulsion to "fork" a VM becomes psychotic, with SCP-3152-1 experiencing explosive psychological episodes when deprived of the ability to fork a VM. Being banned from SCP-3151 by its admin team typically causes near-total psychological meltdowns within SCP-3152-1; they have been observed to violently destroy all objects within their vicinity, as well as sending deranged messages and violent threats to SCP-3151's adminstrators in a desperate attempt to use the website again.<br />
<br />
Two months after infection, SCP-3152-1 will become almost completely mentally disabled, suffering from symptoms similar to severe psychosis and low-functioning autism spectrum disorder. SCP-3152-1 will utilize "Collabology" more than once per second, and will constantly and obsessively "fork VMs", neglecting their own personal needs and having complete mental breakdowns when deprived of this ability. SCP-3152-1, by this point, has lost all ability to speak their native language; they will usually communicate only through SCP-3151 in a form of near-unrecognizable pseudo-english, using phrases such as "GO VM7" or "GET OUT" toward other users of SCP-3151. <br />
<br />
Around four to six months after infection, SCP-3152-1 will suffer a total and irreversible brain death. <br />
<br />
'''Incident Log 3152-5''':<br />

On 21 January 2023, Junior Researcher ██████ Turner accessed SCP-3151 without authorization. They contracted SCP-3152 and began to periodically access 3151 when not under watch by a supervisor. On 23 February, Turner was noticed using "Collabology" in conversations with his supervisors and so was detained and later diagnosed with SCP-3152. After about one month of detainment, he was found to be suffering from severe psychosis and delusional disorder. Turner was designated SCP-3152-1.<br />

<br />
'''Special Containment Procedures:''' Any personnel suspected to have come into contact with SCP-3151 are to be immediately detained and screened for SCP-3152. If an infection is determined, the person is to be immediately placed into solitary confinement to prevent spread of the pathogen. They are to be placed under maximum security and given periodic psychological screenings.<br />
<br />
'''Description''': SCP-3152, commonly referred to as "CollabVM Syndrome", is a memetic brain disease spread through computer systems. The disease has only been observed to spread via contact with SCP-3151 ("CollabVM"), hence its name. This disease is extremely contagious; it has been observed to spread through only two minutes of contact with the aforemented computer systems. <br />
<br />
During the first few days of infection, the "host" (hereby designated SCP-3152-1) will begin to observe mild usage of "Collabology", which consists primarily of suffixing common English words with the word "-fag" (i.e. "rebootfag", "closefag", and on rare occasions, "fagfag"). No other symptoms are present by this point.<br />
<br />
Approximately one to three weeks after the initial infection, SCP-3152-1 will become more obsessed with "forking"<ref>Typically through deleting critical system files or by running malicious software.</ref> virtual machines, specifically one from SCP-3151, and begin to show symptoms similar to those of mild bipolar disorder. Their usage of "Collabology" dramatically increases. SCP-3152-1 will also develop a hatred for SCP-3151's "administrators", becoming particularly belligerent if "Hildaboo" or any variation of that name is mentioned.<ref>I swear to God, the next person who screams "HILDABOO!" at one of these freaks is getting assigned to 682 duty. I've had to replace 17 god damn keyboards THIS WEEK. Did I mention it's only Tuesday? -Dr ████</ref><br />
<br />
One month after infection, the disease will begin to impair SCP-3152-1's normal bodily and cognitive functions. Their grasp on their native language will degenerate to a point where they can only form and understand elementary-level sentences, and their use of "Collabology" increases to a point where nearly every word they use is suffixed with the word "-fag". The compulsion to "fork" a VM becomes psychotic, with SCP-3152-1 experiencing explosive psychological episodes when deprived of the ability to fork a VM. Being banned from SCP-3151 by its admin team typically causes near-total psychological meltdowns within SCP-3152-1; they have been observed to violently destroy all objects within their vicinity, as well as sending deranged messages and violent threats to SCP-3151's adminstrators in a desperate attempt to use the website again.<br />
<br />
Two months after infection, SCP-3152-1 will become almost completely mentally disabled, suffering from symptoms similar to severe psychosis and low-functioning autism spectrum disorder. SCP-3152-1 will utilize "Collabology" more than once per second, and will constantly and obsessively "fork VMs", neglecting their own personal needs and having complete mental breakdowns when deprived of this ability. SCP-3152-1, by this point, has lost all ability to speak their native language; they will usually communicate only through SCP-3151 in a form of near-unrecognizable pseudo-english, using phrases such as "GO VM7" or "GET OUT" toward other users of SCP-3151. <br />
<br />
Around four to six months after infection, SCP-3152-1 will suffer a total and irreversible brain death. <br />

<br />
'''Special Containment Procedures''': SCP-3151's domain and IP address is to be blocked from all major internet service providers and censored from all search engines, under the guise of "malicious activity". Access to the website may be granted to Level 3 personnel. All personnel assigned to SCP-3151 must be immediately detained after 3 hours for psychological screening and possible amnestic administering.<br />
<br />
'''Description''': SCP-3151 is a website located at ████████████.com, with an IPv4 address of 23.███.███.███. This website contains several personal projects, attributed to "Dartz", and lists a contact address of ██████████@gmail.com. So far, all attempts to contact and trace this email have resulted in failure.<br />
<br />
One of the many projects listed on this website is "CollabVM", hereby designated as SCP-3151-A. Upon entry to SCP-3151-A, the website will begin to list a seemingly infinite number of virtual machines that the user can control. Each VM runs a pre-installed home operating system<ref>With the exception of "VM7" and "VM8", which have no operating systems installed. </ref>, typically Microsoft Windows and various distributions of the Linux kernel, although more esoteric operating systems such as TempleOS, 9front, Collapse OS, as well as various "bootlegs" of the Windows operating system have also been found among the list.<br />
<br />
When the user clicks on a desired virtual machine, they are brought to a page where they can control it, and are given free rein on what to do with the virtual machine. The page contains the virtual machine itself, a "vote reset" button to reset the VM back to its default state, and a chatroom where users can communicate short, 140-character messages to eachother. Attempting to engage with users in the chatroom has mostly resulted in word salads, unrelated rants, insults, and incomprehensible sentences, often featuring bizarre grammatical contractions not found in the English language.<br />

After one to three weeks of the initial infection, SCP-3152-1 will become more obsessed with "forking"<ref>Typically through deleting critical system files or by running malicious software.</ref> virtual machines, specifically one from SCP-3151, and begin to show symptoms similar to those of mild bipolar disorder. The usage of "██████ology" dramatically increases. SCP-3152-1 will also develop a hatred for SCP-3151's "administrators", becoming particularly belligerent if "Hildaboo" or any variation of that name is mentioned.<ref>I swear to God, the next person who screams "HILDABOO!" at one of these freaks is getting assigned to 682 duty.

<br />
By one month of infection, the disease will begin to impair SCP-3152-1's normal bodily and cognitive functions. Their grasp on their native language will degenerate to a point where they can only form and understand elementary-level sentences, and their use of "██████ology" increases to a point where nearly every word they use is suffixed with the word "-fag". The compulsion to "fork" a VM becomes psychotic, with SCP-3152-1 experiencing explosive psychological episodes when deprived of the ability to fork a VM. Being banned from SCP-3151 by its admin team typically causes near-total psychological meltdowns within SCP-3152-1; they have been observed to violently destroy all objects within their vicinity, as well as sending deranged messages and violent threats to SCP-3151's adminstrators in a desperate attempt to use the website again.<br />
<br />
After two months of infection, SCP-3152-1 will become almost completely mentally disabled, suffering from symptoms similar to severe psychosis and low-functioning autism spectrum disorder. SCP-3152-1 will utilize "██████ology" more than once per second, and will constantly and obsessively "fork VMs", neglecting their own personal needs and having complete mental breakdowns when deprived of this ability. SCP-3152-1, by this point, has lost all ability to speak their native language; they will usually communicate only through SCP-3151 in a form of near-unrecognizable pseudo-english, using phrases such as "GO VM7" or "GET OUT" toward other users of SCP-3151. <br />
<br />
Around four to six months of infection, SCP-3152-1 will suffer a total and irreversible brain death. <br />

'''Incident Log 3152-5''':<br />
<br />
On 21 January 2023, Junior Researcher ██████ Turner accessed SCP-3151 without authorization. They contracted SCP-3152 and began to periodically access 3151 when not under watch by a supervisor. On 23 February, Turner was noticed using ██████ology in conversations with his supervisors and so was detained and later diagnosed with SCP-3152. After about one month of detainment, he was found to be suffering from severe psychosis and delusional disorder. Turner was designated SCP-3152-1.<br />

SCP-3152 is incredibly contagious.

'''Special Containment Procedures:''' Any personnel suspected to have come into contact with SCP-3151 are to be immediately detained and screened for SCP-3152. If an infection is determined, the person is to be immediately placed into solitary confinement to prevent spread of the pathogen. They are to be placed under maximum security and given periodic psychological screenings.<br />
<br />
'''Description''': SCP-3152, commonly referred to as "██████VM Syndrome", is a memetic brain disease spread through computer systems. The disease has only been observed to spread via contact with SCP-3151 ("██████VM"), hence its name. This disease is extremely contagious; it has been observed to spread through only two minutes of contact with the aforemented computer systems. <br />
<br />
During the first few days of infection, the "host" (hereby designated SCP-3152-1) will begin to observe mild usage of "██████ology", which consists primarily of suffixing common English words with the word "-fag" (i.e. "rebootfag", "closefag", and on rare occasions, "fagfag"). No other symptoms are present by this point.<br />
<br />
After one to three weeks of the initial infection, SCP-3152-1 will become more obsessed with "forking"<ref>Typically through deleting critical system files or by running malicious software.</ref> virtual machines, specifically one from SCP-3151, and begin to show symptoms similar to those of mild bipolar disorder.

'''Windows Server''', formerly known as Windows NT Server, is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft, first released in 1991 with "Windows NT 3.1 Advanced Server". As the name suggests, these are the server variations of Microsoft Windows, and are intended for mission critical tasks.<br />
<br />
Stable releases of Windows Server are typically every 3-4 years, and versions of Windows Server are typically supported for about 10 years. Certain versions of Windows Server allow users to purchase a paid support plan which will extend the updates by up to 4 years. This plan is included with Microsoft Azure purchases.<br />
<br />
You can check what Windows Server version you have by opening cmd and typing <code>ver</code>.<br />

==Servicing channels==<br />
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:<br />
<br />
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)<br />
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)<br />
<br />
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.<br />
<br />
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===<br />
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.<br />
<br />
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===<br />
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.<br />

'''Windows Server''', formerly known as Windows NT Server, is a series of operating systems created by Microsoft, first released in 1991 with "Windows NT 3.1 Advanced Server". As the name suggests, these are the server variations of Microsoft Windows, and are intended for mission critical tasks.<br />
<br />
Stable releases of Windows Server are typically every 3-4 years, and versions of Windows Server are typically supported for about 10 years. Certain versions of Windows Server allow users to purchase a paid support plan which will extend the updates by up to 4 years. This plan is included with Microsoft Azure purchases.<br />
<br />
You can check what Windows Server version you have by opening cmd and typing <code>ver</code>.<br />

==Servicing channels==<br />
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:<br />
<br />
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)<br />
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)<br />
<br />
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.<br />
<br />
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===<br />
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.<br />
<br />
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===<br />
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.<br />

==Servicing channels==<br />
Windows Server has the following release channels available. They are:<br />
<br />
*Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)<br />
*Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)<br />
<br />
The Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel (SAC) is no longer available as of August 9, 2022 - there will be no future SAC releases for Windows Server.<br />
<br />
===Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC)===<br />
The Long-Term Servicing Channel is the release cycle most Windows Server releases follow. Typically, the LTSC channel sees a new major release every 2-3 years. Users are entitled to 5 years of mainstream support, and 5 years of extended support, for a total of 10 years of support.<br />
<br />
===Semi-Annual Channel (SAC)===<br />
The Semi-Annual Channel was intended to allow Windows Server customers to take advantage of newer operating system capabilities at a faster pace, focused mainly on containers and microservices. Each release in the SAC was supported for 18 months from the initial release. As of August 9, 2022, this channel has been retired and no future releases will be made.<br />

'''Oracle Solaris''' is a Unix-like operating system originally developed by Sun Microsystems, now developed by Oracle under the name Oracle Solaris.<br />
<br />
Typically, Solaris releases have occurred every 5 years, though this has changed in recent years as Solaris has not seen a version increment since 2010. The lifespan of Solaris releases are known for being extremely long; they are typically supported for around 15 years.<br />
<br />
You can check which version of Solaris you're running by using the command <code>cat /etc/release</code>.<br />

'''Description''': SCP-3152 is a website located at ████████████.com, with an IPv4 address of 23.███.███.███. This website contains several personal projects, attributed to "Dartz", and lists a contact address of ██████████@gmail.com. So far, all attempts to contact and trace this email have resulted in failure.<br />
<br />
One of the many projects listed on this website is "CollabVM", hereby designated as SCP-3152-A. Upon entry to SCP-3152-A, the website will begin to list a seemingly infinite number of virtual machines that the user can control. Each VM runs a pre-installed home operating system<ref>With the exception of "VM7" and "VM8", which have no operating systems installed. </ref>, typically Microsoft Windows and various distributions of the Linux kernel, although more esoteric operating systems such as TempleOS, 9front, Collapse OS, as well as various "bootlegs" of the Windows operating system have also been found among the list.<br />
<br />
When the user clicks on a desired virtual machine, they are brought to a page where they can control it, and are given free rein on what to do with the virtual machine. The page contains the virtual machine itself, a "vote reset" button to reset the VM back to its default state, and a chatroom where users can communicate short, 140-character messages to eachother. Attempting to engage with users in the chatroom has mostly resulted in word salads, unrelated rants, insults, and incomprehensible sentences, often featuring bizarre grammatical contractions not found in the English language.<br />

The page contains the virtual machine itself, a "vote reset" button to reset the VM back to its default state, and a chatroom where users can communicate short, 100-character messages to eachother. Attempting to engage with users in the chatroom has mostly resulted in word salads, unrelated rants, insults, and incomprehensible sentences, often featuring bizarre grammatical contractions not found in the English language.<br />

VM7 is a Install Any OS VM ([[VM8|and a series of Install Any OS VMs]]) that debuted in December 2021. The VM allows any user to install any OS they want, either through Lily or Dartz's ISO folder or from a website using <code>!httpcd (url)</code>. A list of them can be found at [http://computernewb.com/~dartz/isos http://computernewb.com/~dartz/isos] and [http://computernewb.com/~lily/ISOs http://computernewb.com/~lily/ISOs].<br />
<br />
There is also an alternate version of VM7 for older operating systems you can use, called VM8. [[VM8|You can view the article for it here.]]<br />
<br />
Users interact with the VM through a bot named [[AnyOSInstallBot]]. Another way users can interact with the VM is the default [[iPXE]] which is named "CollabVM iPXE", a custom version of iPXE. This iPXE version behaves similar to vanilla iPXE, VM8 does not have this however.<br />

__TOC__<br />
== Facts about VM7 ==<br />
* [[Forkies]] usually come on VM7 to eject the CD and install some other OS over the one you were attempting to install or type !reboot and !eject cd in the middle of an install when you are using the system.<br />
<br />
* Due to the TPM 2.0 requirements of Windows 11 (and the fact that VM7 does not have a vTPM), and also annoying children trying to install it, attempting to insert the ISO will insert "Windows 7 Haunted Edition" instead<br />
<br />
* [[AnyOSInstallBot]] may not be present sometimes due to it being offline or an admin kicking it (likely due to abuse of the bot)<br />
<br />
== Tips for both VM7 and VM8 ==<br />
* People enjoy installing operating systems that are already their own VMs. Instead of doing that, try installing some really obscure OS or a bootleg from Crustywindows.<br />
<br />
* If you don't want to wait so long for <code>!reboot</code>, you can alternatively open the webapp OSK and soft reboot the virtual machine by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete.<br />
<br />
* When booting, go to iPXE command line and type in <code>exit</code>, this way you don't have to wait for iPXE to tell you that there is no network devices then let you boot to CD or floppy faster.<br />
<br />
* The best bootset order is <code>nad</code>. Why? Not because that's slang for testicles, but because by using the sanboot command in iPXE, you can still boot to the hard drive by typing in <code>sanboot -d 0x80</code>.<br />
<br />
* Actually, the best bootset order depends on how you are going to install something on VM7. You can do <code>dc</code> if you're going to insert a CD to install an OS, and then eject it later and boot to the OS faster.<br />

* NetBSD<br />
* GhostBSD - utouch-kmod is required for absolute mouse input.<br />
* OmniTribblix<br />
* OpenIndiana<br />
* 9front<br />
* Mac OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" - Niresh's 10.8.2 works on it, however not absolute mouse input and no ethernet unless you install a kext. Use command <code>!httpcd https://egg.l5.ca/files/iso/10.8.iso</code><br />
<br />
== OSes that work but have issues ==<br />
*Windows XP - You need to load a driver before the installer, or else the setup won't detect any disks:<br />
:Run <code>!flp Driver/ich9-flp.img</code> <br />
:As soon as the text setup loads, press F6 <br />
:Press S to show a list of drivers, and select "'''Intel(R) ICH9R/DO/DH SATA AHCI Controller'''"<br />
:Hit enter. The install should proceed as normal.<br />
<br />
== OSes that don't work at all ==<br />
* FreeBSD - 64-bit panics due to something with APIC and 32-bit gets stuck on "Timecounters tick every 10.000 msec"<br />
