RE: Federation?
More of an application question and what federation tooling you'll use. ADFS from Microsoft is free and reasonably straight forward to setup. The work is in each application integration.

IIS 6 redirects
I have a website bound to port 81 443 with some redirects. One vdir has a single redirect, another has two, then there is 4th I am unsure about. Is there a programmatic way to enumerate the redirects in a clear way, and can I just drop a redirect by clearing out the associated start and end tags for the redirect? I assume unless enabling direct metabase edits I will have to restart iis?

Re: IIS 4.0 and .docx MIME types
Sounds like IIS is successfully serving the file if Word is complaining about the format. Could the document be from a different (prob. older) version of word? Rather than opening, can you save the file locally and try extension as .doc and see if Word will open.

w32tm.exe Help Understanding
Hello and Merry Christmas, I am feeling pretty dumb here and would like to wrap up one of my projects before the holiday. Currently I am trying to do some calculations using w32tm.exe to validate my math...and my math appears to be wrong. For example I Google how many nanoseconds in a day. From multiple sources I get 86,400,000,000,000. Fine then w32tm.exe should match saying 1 daybut it doesn't It says 100 days C:\Users\jbonnerw32tm.exe /ntte 864000 100 00:00:00.000 - 4/10/1601 5:00:00 PM A day is a day regardless so I can't see that time zone would matter for this simple calculation?? So let's say Google is wrong and I use 864,000,000,000 which does show as one day. C:\Users\jbonnerw32tm.exe /ntte 8640 1 00:00:00.000 - 4/10/1601 5:00:00 PM Fine w32tm.exe has an epoch of 1-1-1601. I want the number of nanoseconds till 1-1-1901. That would be 300 (1901-1601) 365 (days in a year) 300 * 365 = 109,500 days 109500 days * 8640 (nanoseconds in a day) = 94,608,000,000,000,000 Close but no dice.

RE: w32tm.exe Help Understanding-Resolved
Which is why we have leap years every 4 years :) From: John Bonner [mailto:johnbon...@centura.org] Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 3:17 PM To: Heaton, Joseph@DFG; NT System Admin Issues Subject: w32tm.exe Help Understanding-Resolved And for the second one I need to use 365.242199 days in a year. Over 300 years that fraction adds up. DOH! Well have a blessed Christmas and thanks for all your help during the year. JB From: Bonner, John Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 3:57 PM To: 'NT System Admin Issues' Subject: w32tm.exe Help Understanding Hello and Merry Christmas, I am feeling pretty dumb here and would like to wrap up one of my projects before the holiday Currently I am trying to do some calculations using w32tm.exe to validate my math...and my math appears to be wrong. For example I Google how many nanoseconds in a day. From multiple sources I get 86,400,000,000,000. Fine then w32tm.exe should match saying 1 daybut it doesn't It says 100 days C:\Users\jbonnerw32tm.exe /ntte 864000 100 00:00:00.000 - 4/10/1601 5:00:00 PM A day is a day regardless so I can't see that time zone would matter for this simple calculation?? So let's say Google is wrong and I use 864,000,000,000 which does show as one day. C:\Users\jbonnerw32tm.exe /ntte 8640 1 00:00:00.000 - 4/10/1601 5:00:00 PM Fine w32tm.exe has an epoch of 1-1-1601. I want the number of nanoseconds till 1-1-1901. That would be 300 (1901-1601) 365 (days in a year) 300 * 365 = 109,500 days 109500 days * 8640 (nanoseconds in a day) = 94,608,000,000,000,000 Close but no dice. C:\Users\jbonnerw32tm.exe /ntte 94608 109500 00:00:00.000 - 10/20/1900 5:00:00 PM So I am pretty confused and any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
