RE: Exchange 2007 Meeting room resources
Bumping this mail! I have a requirement for a number of users who will able to overwrite the existing meetings in a particular meeting room. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Do they just end. Can this be flagged so that the organizer has the option of re-creating the reoccurring meeting? Date is listed on the meeting request. I can also set -EnforceSchedulingHorizon $false to that will allow the no end date option on reoccurring meetings.

Re: Apple newbie - iPad remote access to server shares
There you go again, confusing *your* needs with the needs of the vast majority of consumers (both corporate and personal) Smartphones are also inhibited when it comes to content creation. Doesn't appear to be stopping their momentum in any way: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2379665,00.asp Even if the views you expressed were true for every single techie on the planet (and, I assure you that they are not), it would still be dwarfed by the vast majority of people that populate the earth, have disposable income, and are not techies. Also, new use cases will always spring up once devices of a certain form factor gain some traction. It's coming... you can lead, or you can follow, but it is coming to an office near you -- and soon. * * *ASB* *http://XeeMe.com/AndrewBaker* *Harnessing the Advantages of Technology for the SMB market… * On Tue, Aug 23, 2011 at 11:46 PM, Kurt Buff kurt.b...@gmail.com wrote: I strongly disagree.

Re: Apple newbie - iPad remote access to server shares
Again, you're largely extrapolating a personal preference into a global phenomenon. There are a variety of tools, including Swype, which exist to make it easy to post long documents if you really need to, from a device like a smart phone, much less a tablet. Your personal preference does not indicate viability, nor will it inhibit adoption. -ASB: http://about.me/Andrew.S.Baker Sent from my Motorola Droid via Swype On Aug 23, 2011 11:51 PM, Kurt Buff kurt.b...@gmail.com wrote: And to anyone who needs to express thoughts to others beyond the silliness that is 'u gng show night' with any regularity.

*We are creating far more than we ever used to though* I hesitate to call much of that content *creation*. At best, many people are pushing around content to lots of other people made by only a few people. Just take this list, for example. The growth in traffic is attributable to a small number of subscribers, on the whole, and this growth is consumed by a much larger group. No matter what the growth of content, the ratio of consumers to producers is not shrinking appreciably, even if you count - pseudo producers.

IBM still makes a buncha money on mainframes. The current generation of tablets are probably the most compelling piece of technology since then. Perhaps. I've yet to be convinced. Teachers and administrators are very interested in tablets because they believe they offer so much more capability for viewing and distributing content! The SJRDF is strong, 'tis true. I think the only advantage they show is weight, and a multi-touch screen. For viewing content, a larger screen gives better resolution, and for real distribution you still need the servers on the back end.

The DX is black and white-just with a bigger screen. E-ink seems to be the best for long-term reading because (A.) it's easy on the eyes and (B.) it requires just a trickle of power from a battery. But to be feasible for textbooks, it has to support color. China's Hanvon makes a color e-ink reader, but the technology is still very new. The colors aren't bright, and screen-draws are slow.

Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection and Exclusions
There's not many server-end systems that don't need exclusions. On XenApp, without a particular set of them you can't get EdgeSight working effectively, either - and if you use AppSense agents, you need to configure another particular set of exclusions, even on client endpoints.

Again, nobody is espousing tablets as wholesale REPLACEMENTS for computers. They are useful adjuncts in many cases. the most capable device first And therein lies the rub.

IBM still makes a buncha money on mainframes. The current generation of tablets are probably the most compelling piece of technology since then. Perhaps. I've yet to be convinced. Teachers and administrators are very interested in tablets because they believe they offer so much more capability for viewing and distributing content! The SJRDF is strong, 'tis true. I think the only advantage they show is weight, and a multi-touch screen. For viewing content, a larger screen gives better resolution, and for real distribution you still need the servers on the back end.

Our service agreement with TWtelecom ends in a few months and it seems that Comcast can blow TW's prices out of the water. But then again it's Comcast and since they don't offer an SLA in their agreement and some things I've heard in the past such as oversubscribing, outages, bandwidth speed dropping, etc concerns me. We may just use it as a backup service but have talked about replacing our primary service with it. We are a relatively small shop and operate now with a 4Mb up and down with a 1.5 DSL as backup that also handles wireless. We are looking at Comcasts 22Mb/2Mb service.

RE: Former Employee Cripples Shionogi Computers
For such an attack that caused $300k damage, it seems that this only affected a relatively small org. Small orgs tend not to have the enormous amount of risk management and process (ITIL or otherwise) that large organisations have. Large orgs also have their problems, but something as routine as employee termination does tend to have a standard procedure that does get followed (well, maybe they can still access the carpark). We have a small mountain of documentation to cover thousands of procedures - but there are probably still gaps.

For such an attack that caused $300k damage, it seems that this only
affected a relatively small org. Small orgs tend not to have the
enormous amount of risk management and process (ITIL or otherwise) that
large organisations have.
Large orgs also have their problems, but something as routine as
employee termination does tend to have a standard procedure that does
get followed (well, maybe they can still access the carpark).
We have a small mountain of documentation to cover thousands of
procedures - but there are probably still gaps.

Re: Orginizational Q
I don't think group names are BS. Group names have an effect on outside perceptions about what your group does and is assigned. Especially at larger companies where no one can keep the entire structure in their head and rely on distribution lists or group names to make educated assumtions about who to contact for what. Name are important to perception. I'd go with Systems Engineering. If you have multiple OS's and a seperate Network and Unix team, Windows Systems Engineering. You could also go with Server Infrastructure Team or something similiar. You want something inclusive of your scope but not something that steps on what the other teams do.

RE: Orginizational Q
… until you decide to look for another job. Say you apply for a System Engineer position and you use “Technical Support III” on your resume. The Jr. recruiting analyst that just graduated from high school who does not know up from down would send your resume to the circular file because you were not a “System Engineer”. So you have to add “System Engineer/Technical Support III” on your resume. Again, the Jr. recruiting analyst would say how can he hold two positions at the same time… another trip the circular file.

Re: Orginizational Q
So my suggestion of Apple Dumpling Gang is off base I guess. Steven Peck wrote: I don't think group names are BS. Group names have an effect on outside perceptions about what your group does and is assigned. Especially at larger companies where no one can keep the entire structure in their head and rely on distribution lists or group names to make educated assumtions about who to contact for what. Name are important to perception. I'd go with Systems Engineering. If you have multiple OS's and a seperate Network and Unix team, Windows Systems Engineering. You could also go with Server Infrastructure Team or something similiar. You want something inclusive of your scope but not something that steps on what the other teams do.

Re: Action Pack License Question
Putting 20 users on a volume license when you have only 10 is a licensing violation. How severe is it? I dunno. I just know it's a technical violation. If you want to go with 100% legit, you split your install base up. Is it worth it? I got an Action Pack mainly for the server software. The Office is a nice bonus, but it's easier to manage with one kind of licensing... There are a few spots where I use the Action Pack license, though.

RE: Action Pack License Question
If you have a volume license don't you have a LAR you can ask? I've always worked on the assumption that Microsoft care far more about keys used than they do media, so if using different media means you have to use a different key for which you aren't licensed, that's more of an issue than the media used, IYSWIM.

Remember reimaging rights? You get that with your license. Now under most circumstances these would not be applicable as Office Pro is different to Pro Plus, but from Action Pack they are the same product.

We have MVL, Action Pack, TechNet and SPLA licenses floating around and the audit tools from the KMS VAMT (Volume Activation Management Toolkit) keep us straight. I have a standard build folder for Office, SharePoint Designer, Project and Visio with SP1 all in one folder which we install on every internal machine. If you ever needed to change the keys then you could do it with a click from the console. I would keep the following as the rights for it: Reimaging Eligibility Reimaging is permitted if the copies made from the Volume Licensing media are identical to the originally licensed product[1]. Volume Licensing customers who have licensed Microsoft software products from an OEM, through a retail source, or under any agreement other than their Microsoft Volume Licensing agreement may use copies made from Microsoft Volume Licensing media. Customers can use these copies from Microsoft media only if they are the same product and version, contain the same components, and are in the same language. The following are examples that do not meet the eligibility criteria for reimaging: Different components: The Microsoft Office system suites must have exactly the same component products. For instance, Microsoft Office Professional 2010 licensed through the OEM, system builder, or FPP channel and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 licensed through Microsoft Volume Licensing are not the same product. They also do not share the same components. Therefore, you cannot reimage in this example.

RE: Action Pack License Question
Great info, thanks Mike. Haven't delved into KMS yet as we are mostly 2003 or earlier on everything. With lots of new MS products being deployed into our network soon, I think it's time to do some research and get my hands dirty on it.

We just today took a delivery of a brand new DesignJet T790. $4500 wide-format printer. The control panel UI is slow and often doesn't respond to finger presses. It does, however, have lots of high color graphics and animations. Web UI has two different credential schemes depending on what page you're on. Some pages want you to leave the username field blank; other pages want you to use admin for the username. Won't load paper. Seems like it's not actually trying to feed. After trying to a bit, it says Edge of roll not found. Prompts me to lift the lever and unload paper. I lift the lever. New message: Lever unexpectedly lifted. Lather, rinse, repeat. Support guidance says load the latest firmware. Look for firmware. It's not under Download drivers and software. Eventually find it under a howto section. 309 MB file! Get download started. Since I'm downloading, decide to grab drivers. Check under Download drivers and software. Don't see drivers. Mainly just this HP ePrint and Share: Easy printing thing. That claims to be a radical new technology that lets me print without drivers or software. To use it, all I have to do is download and install this software. Umm... Eventually find drivers under some other howto page. Firmware download finished. It's just a binary blob, no checksum info, no wrapper like ZIP or anything. I just have to hope for the best. Takes several minutes to load. Since then the machine's gone offline and hasn't come back. I'm dreading the day the corruption reaches the ProCurve division. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- G.

RE: full system backup
Those are pretty much the same hardware layer, hard to call those different systems as far as Windows is concerned. Dell Laptop to HP desktop, for example, that might be a different story.
