Information about joeware mixed with wild and crazy opinions...
Quick update to http://blog.joeware.net/2010/12/09/2163/
AdFind can now successfully output CSV for a test group that had over a million users (http://blog.joeware.net/2010/12/10/2168/). I am not saying it is rip roaring fast or anything, but it will do it.
Last night I also added the ability to add an INT8 string to the time decode output through –tdc(s)fmt switches. The request for that feature just hit my inbox a couple of days ago.

Interesting article…
The system you have in Europe and America is bull****. Unless you adopt an approach that actually works, whatever technology you care to use will make little difference. The terrorists will always be one step ahead,’ says Rafi Sela, a top Israeli security consultant. Through his firm, AR Challenges, he is in charge of marketing the automated Israeli method to Europe and America as a complete package – what he calls Trust Based Security, or TBS.
The first thing you probably want to know about Facebook’s new "tag suggestions" — which uses facial recognition technology to suggest which friend is probably featured in which photo — is that you can turn it off.
I just encountered an email from someone asking how to output SIDs from vbscript. I thought I had something up on the blog already for this but I couldn’t find it (maybe it is in the book??) so I thought I would put something up.
The following link is to a friend and fellow MVP, Richard Mueller. Richard is pretty good with vbscript.

I haven’t been able to download it yet but it is certainly worth a look. People have often heard me say that Quest has some of the best developers who understand and write software for MSFT products outside of Redmond. In fact, there are times when I think some of those guys know more about the MSFT products than some of the the folks inside of MSFT knows because they have to try and reverse out how it works in many cases.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not a Fan Boi for Quest (or MSFT for that matter), quite the contrary. But I do appreciate intelligence when I encounter it and I have spoken with several folks in the Quest product groups and dev guys and they have some seriously smart guys running around there.

That being said, if this sync engine uses SQL server, it gets an immediate –1 from me[1].
