My wife teases me about twitter all the time. Now with the IPhone I’m reading/posting more. After these two videos, I think I need to lay off the twitter for a bit.

I really like what Microsoft has done with IE8. I think its moving in the right direction. I’m a minimalist and would prefer to work with IE than install another browser. I’ve used Firefox before and really like it and the plug-ins. But IE works better with our intranet and with our new test SharePoint install. So I want to stick with it. But the issues I’m having with IE8 and gmail are about to make me move to Firefox for my default browser and use IE only when I have to.
Images don’t work on gmail when I’m using IE8 look:
I’ve clicked on the display images link and it still doesn’t show any of the images. Its on any email I get with images. I have to ad or pop blocker enabled. I’ve added mail.google.com to my trusted sites. I’ve enabled compatibility mode for mail.google.com.
I have all my email through Google apps, If I can’t get this going. I’m going to switch. Searching for others with this issue, it looks like this was a problem even with the beta of IE8 but they still haven’t fixed it. I’m a Microsoft guy, but this is unacceptable. If they want to keep their user base for IE. They need to get this fixed!

It’s been a week now, I can say it in public. Anyone who knows me will be shocked that I got a IPhone. I got it for work to see what all the hype was about and if the new IPhone and software version 3.0 is enterprise ready yet. After having it for a week ( I got my in the mail on Friday the first day there where out) I have to say its better than I expected, but for the most part its still just a fun toy cell phone. I’m scared I’m going to break it or scratch it.
It syncs with our Exchange active sync and even has the live global address book search. You can chose which folders to sync, but I haven’t been able to find out how to do scheduled sync not push email only. I also can find a schedule for the push email. I tend to keep my cell phone next to the bed for text pages from our server monitoring software or emergency calls in the middle of the night. But since it does push email all the time it beeps every time I get an email. I need to be able to turn off the push email in the middle of the night but still get my calls and text pages.
You can access the apps store wirelessly so I can pull down new apps without the need of a computer or iTunes. The camera is nice and takes video. I’ve been happy with the picture quality of the pictures and videos, just wish I could figure out how to upload the videos to facebook from the IPhone.
The thing I hate about the IPhone the most is not the IPhone its the fact that I have to use ITunes. ITunes is a piece of sh*t. I installed it in a virtual machine to active the phone. But I’d like to put some of my photos and music from my home computer on the IPhone, but I’m not going to install ITunes at home! There are some crazy hacks to get music on the IPhone, like only installing parts of ITunes then using winamp or other music applications. But that seems like just a pain just to add some photos and MP3’s. Oh well.

First off I’m a windows user so don’t say get a Mac. I saw the commercial about IPhoto and how it could search through all your pictures and tag them for you with a persons name. We already have hundreds of photos of the kids and normally don’t go though each one and tag it after we upload it to the computer. I’ve read about Google’s Picasa having face tagging, but that’s only for the online web albums. I want to tag them locally on my PC. I’ve looked but having found anything for windows that would do it. I really like Windows Live Photo Gallery software and I’ve used Adobe elements before, but right now neither of these products will do auto face tags.

The problem may occur when the Priority of these problematic recipient policy is set to highest.
Solution:
- Open ADSI EDIT.
- Configuration(server.domain.com)/CN=Services/CN=Microsoft Exchange/CN=<Exchange Org Name>/CN=Recipient Policies.
- Right click the problematic recipient policy and select Properties. On the Attribute Edit tab, ensure Show only attributes that have values is check.
Find attribute msExchPolicyOrder and Change the attribute msExchPolicyOrder for that policy and set its value to 2. - Wait for the change to replicate through the domain.
- Try to delete that policy from the ESM

We ended up going with a small vmware view deployment because we already had ESX and got a better deal on view. But the project was rushed and its not installed or configured optimally (not the project leads fault)
We are not using shared clones and not redirecting profiles or user data.
I’ve been reading comparisons of xendesktop vs view and really wish we would have gone with xendesktop. We have Citrix PS 4. Oh well.
I found this video comparing streaming video and PowerPoint in both products. I’m just wondering how well this would look on a non-HDX xendesktop

There are quite a few ways to tell. Here are a few I found.
The correct version of the ADPrep.exe tool for Windows Server 2003 R2 is 5.2.3790.2075.
You can verify the operating system support level of the schema by looking at the value of the Schema Version registry subkey on a domain controller. You can find this subkey in the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters
You can also verify the operating system support level of the schema by using the Adsiedit.exe utility or the Ldp.exe utility to view the objectVersion attribute in the properties of the cn=schema,cn=configuration,dc=<domain> partition. The value of the Schema Version registry subkey and the objectVersion attribute are in decimal.
Schema Version ObjectVersion values and corresponding operating system support level
- 13=Microsoft Windows 2000
- 30=Original release version of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
- 31=Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2
- 44=Windows 2008
******OR*********
adfind -sc schver. It gets objectVersion code and translates into Win2003 version.

…Now you can.
I don’t know, I’m more excited with the idea of facebook working with OpenID.
Beginning today, Windows Live ID is publicly committing to support the OpenID digital identity framework with the announcement of the public availability of a Community Technology Preview (CTP) of the Windows Live ID OpenID Provider.
You will soon be able to use your Windows Live ID account to sign in to any OpenID Web site!
The Windows Live ID OpenID Provider (OP) enables anyone with a Windows Live ID account to set up an OpenID alias and to use that alias for identification at an increasing number of OpenID 2.0 relying party sites-for example: Plaxo, Pibb, StackOverflow.com and Wikispaces.

Found in the thinlist mailserv for Citrix. I wanted to posted it here so I could easily reference it and for others to find it:
Your ability to run reports from the license service is dependent on the license service logging the usage data By default, report logging is turned off in MetaFrame Access Suite licensing.
To activate report logging, add the REPORTLOG keyword to the options file. This keyword specifies the log location, and it specifies that the report log is not overwritten when the license server is restarted.
The options file is a server configuration file that defines licensing behavior – your options file is probably C:\Program Files\Citrix\Licensing\MyFiles\CITRIX.opt" on your license server.
By default it’ll have
NOLOG IN
NOLOG OUT
as default options.
You’ll want to add the following to the .opt file and restart the license service:
REPORTLOG + “c:\program files\citrix\licensing\ls\reportlog.rl”
This will store usage (for reporting) to the file reportlog.rl – the “+” symbol means that the file will not be overwritten when you start the service
