Yeah, the older I get the more I appreciate solutions like this.

Yeah it's very effective. It has a big downside of people losing the pegs and then those addresses are "lost" but all that means is that 2 users can't reliably connect and when they report to IT they will be asked if they had the correct peg. And I guess quarterly do a review for unused addresses that have pegs out and create new ones for lost pegs.

Always make a backup! Hopefully, they remembered the 1-2-3 rule 🤔
