Create Guest Account in Latest Version of Windows 10

     If you are using latest version of Windows 10 in your system, you might have noticed couldn't create "Guest" account on it. Here is a workaround  to fix this problem.

    For reason unknown, Microsoft quietly removed Guest account from Windows 10 in middle of this year. So directly we can't create Guest user account in your system. Here are the steps to fix this problem

- Open "Command Prompt" as Administrator

- Enter "net user GuestAccountName /add /active:yes" to create a new account.
Note : You can replace "GuestAccountName" with whatever name you wish. But you should ensure change it in the following steps also.

- Enter "net user GuestAccountName *" to create password for this account.
Note : You can create blank password for this account when you have pressed "Enter" button at two times.

- Enter "net localgroup users GuestAccountName /delete" to remove GuestAccountName account from regular user group.

- Enter "net localgroup guests GuestAccountName /add" to add GuestAccountName account to Guest user group.

Now you have created new guest account in your system successfully. This guest account have same privileges as old guest account. Hopefully we will expect proper user interface to create guest account from Microsoft as soon as.

Please look the image below for more referral to workaround this problem

Login as NAGIOS user in Terminal

I have written icinga configuration file for some servers to monitoring it. In that, some custom scripts are running with SSH command to monitor the Server status. Everything goes fine till when did shut down the server and launch the same server ( same hostname ) with different hardware due to Memory problem. Note : Memory problem - Sometimes, We need better RAM and Harddisk to handle the traffic when server started to get more request from the Client.  In this moment, the icinga custom scripts and inbuild scripts that related to the server hostname are started to throw the error message that can't connect to server using SSH : SSH Failed ( Same host name. But different hardware ). Because, My monitor server has Old server SSH Key in Known_Hosts for hostname. But, My monitoring server was trying to connect to New Server with Old server SSH Key from Known_Hosts. To avoid this problem, We need to remove Old Server SSH Key belong with Hostname from Known_Hosts...
