Here it is Directory Experts Conference (DEC) day 3 and I am writing about DEC day 2. I could have written last night but instead tried to do a little work work and then sleep. What do I have to say about DEC day 2? Well it is the “real” DEC day 1. DEC day […]

So here I am at the end of day one of the Directory Experts Conference. Today was about a “disaster recovery” live session which included several labs. My plan was to spend the day in bed until my hotel I was in Sat night kicked me out the door however the night before my friend […]

Basically we were just looking for something to do content publishing that allowed us to set some security rules and user registration, etc, and […]

Do you read the TechTarget emails? I look at them occasionally when something catches my eye, as of late the things that catch my eye end up being written by Derek Melber. Sadly, the articles usually are pretty bad. I say sadly because at one point, Derek was a Directory Services MVP. I am not […]

I was contacted this afternoon by a gentleman who was trying to download adfind and kept getting an error message saying Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found Well due to recent issues with the ISP I really made sure it was […]
