RE: What is your IT department name?
Our organization is in state government, so take this with a grain of salt. I work for Department of Fish and Game, which is under the California Resources Agency. Within the Department, we have Divisions (Admin Division, etc.) Under the Divisions, we have Branches. So, I work for ITB (Information Technology Branch), which covers the helpdesk, server teams (which I'm on), network team, security team, and telecom team.

When I have this discussion with customers as a consulting working on a re-org type initiative in IT, I usually push hard for the name to lean towards something that includes Services and to be relatively generic e.g. Technology Services. Keep in mind that unless you're working for a technology company, IT is a cost center. You're there to provide value and help the business execute on its core purpose. In other words, you provide a service. I often try and work IT out of the title just because of the reaction the term IT often drives with people outside of IT when they hear that term as they move from job to job over their career. As far as the helpdesk scenario, that's another term I despise. The two terms I'll go with are Service Desk - same line of thinking here (you're here to provide services), or sometimes I've worked with a derivative of Customer Support Desk. Same thing here - you're providing a service, and the people who work for your company are your internal customers. I can't stand the term user that IT generically loves as an industry - that's another no-go for me.

RE: This is what I get....
We're going through the same issue here. For years, while on Novell and XP, all of our users have been local admins. When we roll over to Active Directory, and Win 7, no one will be local admins. We purchased Viewfinity for our privilege elevation issues. Pretty slick software, doesn't need to wait for GPO refresh times like some of the other solutions, just need someone being responsive to the automated e-mails that come in with elevation requests. We have our first line person responding by creating a ticket in our BMC system, then contacting the user and their supervisor to make sure there is licensing, the supervisor knows what the user wants to install and actually needs it, etc. When all that checks out, the ticket gets forwarded to me, and I go in and either create a new policy for this, or add the user to an existing group if the policy for that software already exists. The user gets an automated e-mail when the policy is created, and they are able to install the software.

Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. SD - this exact scenario is the benefit of users not being local administrators. Note 2: Some of this is already done via the Trusted Site GPO. Their additional recommendations recommend disabling ActiveX for Internet and Local Intranet. The latter would disable some Commons functionality, but we can disable it on the Internet site zone temporarily.

RE: Straight Talk mobile service
We have a company here called Metro PCS. Not sure if they're national or not. You have to purchase the phones, but their plans are unlimited: Unlimited talk, text and web. For smartphones, they start at $50/month. There's no limit to the data, but I think they slow you down a bit after around 2GB or so. Doesn't look like they have iPhones, though.

My wife's contract has another 11 months to go, but me and my daughter are past the 2 year mark on our contract. Here are my initial calculations. Staying on the current plan with ATT: Total cost over the next 2 years: $4488 Switching over to Straight talk: Total cost over the next 2 years (based on pre-paying yearly for each plan): $3768 This includes the cost of early termination fee, new SIM cards, and the cost of purchasing a refurbished iPhone for ~$350. Also gives my daughter a data plan. Kills me that I'm paying this much for phone service. Very eye opening. One thing that would also cut into the cost savings is if I want to get a new iPhone when the 5 eventually comes out ( this fall? ).

I've got 3 phones on the plan. Me and my wife both have iPhones and my daughter just has a regular phone (no data plan), but wants an iPhone. My wife's contract has another 11 months to go, but me and my daughter are past the 2 year mark on our contract. Here are my initial calculations. Staying on the current plan with ATT: Total cost over the next 2 years: $4488 Switching over to Straight talk: Total cost over the next 2 years (based on pre-paying yearly for each plan): $3768 This includes the cost of early termination fee, new SIM cards, and the cost of purchasing a refurbished iPhone for ~$350. Also gives my daughter a data plan. Kills me that I'm paying this much for phone service. Very eye opening. One thing that would also cut into the cost savings is if I want to get a new iPhone when the 5 eventually comes out ( this fall? ). Still looks like I'll save on the straight talk plan no matter what.

If the TV has a 1080p panel, did you insure that the computer display resolution is set to 1980 x 1080? Another fuzzy-display problem is underscanning by the computer's display driver.

Have been wanting to get rid of the boat anchor for a while and since the price of low end 32 HDTV's have come down so far, I figured I'd just replace both with a 32 HDTV. Got a low end video card that has HDMI out, and I thought I was all set. Hooked the whole thing up last night and was very disappointed in the resolution. Even with the latest drivers. Then I read this: http://lifehacker.com/5884040/is-it-okay-to-use-an-hdtv-as-a-computer-monitor It had never really occurred to me that HDTVs run at a lower resolution than a monitor. So I think I'll keep the 32 and just use it as a 2nd monitor for watching TV, and hook the old 20 back up for day to day use. Ug once again my lack of planning rears its ugly head.

The idea behind physical boxes, is it gives you something to authenticate against and bring your environment back online. At your size (three hosts, which is what I'm running) you probably don't need it, and can authenticate into the hosts and then start the guests that way.

Security managers have long regarded passphrases as an easy-to-remember way to pack dozens of characters into the string that must be entered to access online accounts or to unlock private encryption keys. The more characters, the thinking goes, the harder it is for attackers to guess or otherwise crack the code, since there are orders of magnitude more possible combinations. But a pair of computer scientists from Cambridge University has found that a significant percentage of passphrases used in a real-world scenario were easy to guess. Using a dictionary containing 20,656 phrases of movie titles, sports team names, and other proper nouns, they were able to find about 8,000 passphrases chosen by users of Amazon's now-defunct PayPhrase system. That's an estimated 1.13 percent of the available accounts. The promise of passphrases' increased entropy, it seems, was undone by many users' tendency to pick phrases that are staples of the everyday lexicon. Our results suggest that users aren't able to choose phrases made of completely random words, but are influenced by the probability of a phrase occurring in natural language, researchers Joseph Bonneau and Ekaterina Shutova wrote in the paper (PDF), which is titled Linguistic properties of multi-word passphrases. Examining the surprisingly weak distribution of phrases in natural language, we can conclude that even 4-word phrases probably provide less than 30 bits of security which is insufficient against offline attack, the paper says.

He told us that it is disabled in our environment because we use the profile settings to map homeDir and specify login script. Basically anything that is set on the Profile tab in ADUC is considered legacy NT behavior and disables logon optimization.

Originally had their unlimited $24.99 single line monthly plan that ended up costing about $2800 per month after fees and taxes. I called and asked if there were discounts for paying in bulk. They said yes so I went with a 1 year contract which put it back to about $25.00 per month with all the taxes and fees in there. The catch was that they automatically renew it. I didn't want them to, but they re-billed me for another year, we had a fight about it, and I had to settle with them for $140 for services they charged me. So I left them, lost my phone number and had no service for a few months while I was shopping around (ATT, Comcast package, etc.). No one seemed to be able to come close so I went back to Vonage. This time I got their basic $14.99 / month package that has about 300 minutes monthly. They sent me a new box and the monthly charges are about $17.00 after fees. The fax seems to work better than it did with the old box I had which sounds like the QOS is on the newer hardware. It didn't work very well with the older box. I'm still trying to see about getting Comcast for the Internet, TV, and phone (Midwest market), but they tell me their specials are only for NEW customers. That really blows my mind, because I've had their Internet and basic TV for almost 9 years. You would think they would want to keep loyal customers and offer some incentives, but they don't.

They said yes so I went with a 1 year contract which put it back to about $25.00 per month with all the taxes and fees in there. The catch was that they automatically renew it. I didn't want them to, but they re-billed me for another year, we had a fight about it, and I had to settle with them for $140 for services they charged me. So I left them, lost my phone number and had no service for a few months while I was shopping around (ATT, Comcast package, etc.). No one seemed to be able to come close so I went back to Vonage. This time I got their basic $14.99 / month package that has about 300 minutes monthly. They sent me a new box and the monthly charges are about $17.00 after fees. The fax seems to work better than it did with the old box I had which sounds like the QOS is on the newer hardware. It didn't work very well with the older box. I'm still trying to see about getting Comcast for the Internet, TV, and phone (Midwest market), but they tell me their specials are only for NEW customers. That really blows my mind, because I've had their Internet and basic TV for almost 9 years. You would think they would want to keep loyal customers and offer some incentives, but they don't. The sales guy said to cancel your service, and then you can come back as a new customer.

Indeed, there are plenty of people doing that now, with MSFT on the desktop and RIM/APPL/GOOG for mobile. Additionally, I don't think trying to force the same UI paradigm everywhere is a good idea. When I'm sitting at my workstation, I have lots of display real-estate, a full-sized keyboard. Lots of windows, lots of foreground multi-tasking, lots of in-depth work sessions. Touchscreen is less useful (gorilla arm). For my handheld, it's more of a quick reference or fast note taking thing. I'm a lot less likely to be doing multiple foreground tasks at once. Screen real estate is at a premium. Touchscreen is preferred. While I think it makes a lot of sense for Microsoft to try and standardize on one platform, I think trying to force the same UI on everyone everywhere would be a mistake. -- 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

That's what I meant when I said it's going away. It's currently a separate product, and will be going away as a separate product.

RE: Speaking of System Center...
Well. it is, but it isn't. Found a Licensing White Paper yesterday afternoon. On the server side, you'll get the whole suite. But, there's always the client side to worry about. In our case, we purchased only SCCM in our EA, along with Core CALs. So, we will have access to SCCM, VMM and Endpoint Protection only. We would have to either upgrade to the Enterprise CALs, or the other client MLs, which gives you allows you to manage clients with Ops Mgr, DPM, etc. The price listed on the paper I read for those CALs is $121 each, which can add up. Will have to speak with our licensing rep to clarify, but seems pretty straightforward to me.

Thus, using them is not a good idea, especially if you have people connecting via VPN to your environment. ~ 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.commailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- Stefan Jafs ~ 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.commailto: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.commailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- Stefan Jafs ~ 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.commailto: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.commailto: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
RE: Expaning Subnet again
Very true, if we go and break up a class C, that is absolutely true. But, seeing as he's going the other way, and making the subnet bigger, not smaller...

RE: Expanding a subnet
Nope. 254 is as high as it goes. 255 is the broadcast address for the subnet. But you could add another subnet. Or you could change your subnet mask, to a lower number, and get more endpoints that way.

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.
