Primary Updates to AdFind Completed…

by @ Sunday, November 30th, 2008. Filed under tech

The primary updates I was looking to put into AdFind V01.39.00 are now done. Now I am adding/updating shortcuts. After that, I have to do the part I hate the most, update the usage… Ugh. As I look at the usage I think, I really need to write a book that goes into depth on […]

I am the bug magnet…

by @ Saturday, November 29th, 2008. Filed under tech

As you all know, I have been working away on AdFind lately. I added the ability to decode msPKIRoamingTimeStamp to its two components (create and update time). I wanted to test it and because I don’t have that attrib set on my test environments I needed to compile AdFind in a non-debug mode… And my […]

I’m on a roll… This evening while partaking in a little turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, and some sautéed squash fries and visiting with friends and family the code I needed to write to add delta time filter capability popped into my head and this evening I inserted that code so now you can do something […]

Calm…

by @ Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Filed under quotes

Calmness of the mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self control. … A man becomes calm in the measure that he understands himself as a thought-evolved being, for such knowledge necessitates the understanding of others as the result of thought, and as […]

AdFind -filterbreakdown

by @ Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Filed under tech

So you have this big nasty LDAP filter and for some reason it isn’t working and by that I mean when you submit the query it comes back and says invalid filter or maybe it doesn’t return what you expect for the data set. You know if you could just see the filter in a […]

Congratulations Mom!

by @ Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Filed under general

My mom has retired from the State of Michigan. I am very excited for her as she can now go on to other challenges. Though I doubt any challenge could be as great as the challenge of working in the Department of Social Services for the State of Michigan for as long as she did. […]

Vision in the heart

by @ Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Filed under quotes

The thoughtless, the ignorant, and the indolent, seeing only the apparent effects of things and not the things themselves, talk of luck, of fortune, and chance. Seeing a man grow rich, they say, “How lucky he is!” Observing another become intellectual, they exclaim, “How highly favored he is!” And noting the saintly character and wide […]

It’s a sad day… At least for me.

I received my complementary copy of Active Directory Fourth Edition today and noted that it is now IN STOCK on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/Active-Directory-Designing-Deploying-Running/dp/059652059X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1227681383&sr=8-1   My version of the book is now officially dead. :o(   At some point possibly Brian will outline what is different about his edition of the book. It will most likely be […]

Just a bug people… Unbunch your panties…

by @ Wednesday, November 26th, 2008. Filed under tech

If I already have administrative or extremely privileged rights on a box, an “exploit” that can do things to the kernel is just a normal bug… Don’t get too excited about it.   I am talking about this article… http://redmondmag.com/news/article.asp?editorialsid=10415 Rating 3.00 out of 5
