by @ Thursday, August 24th, 2006. Filed under tech

Ok… so let me claim being too busy to properly write the previous blog entry about transfering the PDC master role… I totally forgot that I made it a trifle easier to use AdMod than what I documented… This is my utility flexibility coming back to bite me… But then, maybe I bit me, no one […]

Warning: Upcoming LDAPS change in WLDAP32.DLL in Windows Server 2003 SP2…

by @ Thursday, August 24th, 2006. Filed under tech

There is an interesting conversation that spun up over on activedir.org when someone needed to troubleshoot an LDAPS issue when querying an AD DC through a firewall.

If you happen to notice the formatting/colors/fonts/etc of the blog bouncing around like a grasshopper with its foot on fire, it is just me trying out various themes. 🙂 I love the Ocadia theme I have but I really want something with the main text on the far right and wider so code isn’t so […]

…use VMWare Server 1.0!!!! Our friend Jorge contacted me about something he ran into in Longhorn (LH) which reminded me that I had a LH server mid-build on a Virtual Server 2005 R2 (VSR2) instance. I had started it but it was taking so damn long I went on to other things and eventually work […]

I wouldn’t have guessed Survivor would have gone there…

by @ Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006. Filed under general

This should spawn some interesting if not good debate… The new season of “Survivor” will be a race among races. At the start of the reality show’s 13th edition, “Survivor: Cook Islands,” 20 contestants will be organized into four tribes divided along ethnic lines – black, white, Hispanic and Asian, CBS announced Wednesday. http://www.forbes.com/home/feeds/ap/2006/08/23/ap2968565.html   Rating 3.00 […]

HP and Sun smacking at each other over a little bit of artwork…   This time, the two computer companies are not fighting for market share, but about a wooden sculpture of Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard, the HP founders.

by @ Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006. Filed under tech

I have heard about this a couple of times now… Here is the only docs I have really found on it http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.exchange.misc&tid=7c258550-1d14-4677-8f2e-fbbba1630ee6&p=1 Which contains After some work, we were able to determine why Outlook 2003 crashes after moving mailboxes off of Exchange 2000 onto Exchange 2003.

by @ Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006. Filed under updates

I just wanted to touch base and let everyone know that admod v01.07.00 is still coming along. I have finally finished getting some additional debug logging into the tool in the event someone finds something that doesn’t appear to be working right and need to get me involved. This is necessary for some of the […]
