WebRing


In May 1994 Sage developed a script based on work by Denis Howe and Giraldo Hierro that became the technology behind WebRing. Sage launched WebRing in June 1995 and eventually sold it to Starseed, Inc. in 1997.



DreamHost


As an undergraduate Sage worked with fellow Harvey Mudd College students Dallas Bethune, Josh Jones, and Michael Rodriguez to build DreamHost. The site was registered and began hosting customers’ sites in 1997. DreamHost incubated and eventually spun off Inktank.[2]



Inktank


In 2011 Sage co-founded Inktank with (CEO) Bryan Bogensberger as the CTO and technical architect. Inktank was a professional services and support company for the open source Ceph file system.[3] The company was initially funded by DreamHost[4] and later supplemented by Mark Shuttleworth.[5] On 30 April 2014 it was announced that Red Hat would acquire Inktank Storage for $175 Million.[6]

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
