19 Mar '20

Hello, I just spun up a windows 2012r2 instance from vultr. I'm running windows 10 1909 locally. I'd likt to connect to this instance, is rdp the best option? My goal is to connect to the server, then activate narrator, followed by an NVDA install. Suggestions appreciated. Thanks. Dave.

vps providers
by David Mehler 15 Mar '20

15 Mar '20

Hello, I might be in the market for a new vps provider. I was wondering if anyone uses either digital ocean or vultr? If either how are they in terms of accessibility? My current vps provider made some changes that IMO shot accessibility down plus some of these changes also took out a majority of my setup, I am not pleased about this. Any input welcome. Thanks. Dave.

Need to connect to a dedicated server, and learning about networking. Doing a networking course, and using a tool called heropa, they have given me a dedicated server, as their web tool is not accessible or user friendly http://www.heropa.com and using jaws 2020, nvda latest version. And got windows 10 pro 64 bit. Now all my remote access settings setup. Using the Microsoft remote access app. Logon and it tells me logon, then get an edit box. So not sure, is there a more screen reader friendly remote access app, to go to the dedicated server. Not a web app or web service, they are rebuilding their web app, could be a few months before I then beta testing. When I access the web app, heropa, nested menus, not screen reader friendly. So any one able to help me out. Need to use this dedicated server and been a few weeks. Need to install other os systems, but virtual box, vm ware player was not working.

Hi Ryan, So no solution for that. Very unfortunate. BTW i seem not to have much issues under server 2008 r2. At the moment i am using wevtutil and writing the data into a text file.

Often with large views the mmc and/or the screenreader crashes. As far as i remember this should have been fixed a few months ago? I am using NVDA so i don't know if that also happens with JAWS.

Build logs in Azure Devops
by Andrew Hodgson 09 Mar '20

09 Mar '20

Hi guys, Anyone using Azure Devops? I am moving a load of our stuff from Jenkins and TeamCity into it and really liking the yaml based pipelines. One issue though is I am finding reading the build logs difficult with latest JFW and Chrome. When I go into the build logs, I don't seem to be able to read the logs from the first page that comes up, I have to use the option to view raw logs, which gives me a more verbose output with every line timestamped. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks. Andrew.
