RBAC Roles Control Different Aspects of Tenant Management
I’m no programmer but I’ve seen demonstrations of web page code that allows a web site to detect your operating system, browser version, and other details that annoy privacy nutters. The sites can then (if they feel like it I suppose) use that information to tailor the web content to suit the client (eg, why […]
I am posting this using Windows Live Writer, a free application from Microsoft that you can use for writing your blog posts and publishing them to WordPress, Windows Live Spaces, SharePoint, and many other blogging platforms. I hadn’t considered trying Windows Live Writer until I read this post on BloggingTips.com. That day I downloaded the […]
2007 was the second year for this web site. I started it in 2006 using Mambo as the CMS and mostly writing longer articles and guides. This proved impractical after a while. My work lends itself to writing more quick fix posts for rare or obscure problems. I fill in the rest of my posting […]
I compared Microsoft Office 2007 to OpenOffice to find out which is the better office suite. The five points I used to compare the two are: The interface The quality of the help files and assistance when you get stuck The speed with which common tasks can be performed The richness of the templates provided […]
I am no longer a user of Windows Vista. It has been nearly a year since Microsoft released Vista. I first wrote about it when I tested the upgrade process from Windows XP to Vista Business Edition. Shortly after that I upgraded my laptop and resolved a few minor issues with the optical drive, the […]
Whinging about UAC is for wimps, this is a real Windows Vista annoyance. 1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate through the folder tree in the left pane (eg, navigate to C:Temp) 2. Drag and select one or more files or folders in the right pane that you would like to delete 3. Hit delete Windows […]
Last week I wrote a post on what is missing from Exchange Server 2007 Anti-Spam. A short time afterwards Evan Dodds wrote back to me with an answer to the issue. One could write a simple script to check what updates are available on MU in certain categories, etc. Sample VB script code is available […]
Dan has a special place in his heart for iSCSI, so this one is for him.
I’ve been searching all over the Microsoft website for a KB article, Technet article, or any other page that will list the current version of the various Exchange Server 2007 anti-spam signature releases. I realise that in any given day these can update dozens of times, but it is still a bit frustrating not having […]
It must be Service Pack 1 Week at Microsoft. Exchange Server 2007 SP1 Service Pack 1 for Exchange Server 2007 has finally gone RTM. This release includes support for Windows Server 2008, enhanced functionality for Outlook Web Access, new administrative tools for Public Folders, and the new Standby Continuous Replication feature for HA/DR. A full […]
Earlier this week I attended a Microsoft workshop on Unified Communications. The workshop included a bunch of information on how Microsoft’s UC strategy is targeting the market, and how Office Communications Server 2007, Office Communicator, and Exchange Server 2007 Unified Messaging fit into that strategy. One thing struck me during the Unified Messaging demonstrations. Exchange […]
Microsoft announced the release of Search Server 2008, which comes in both a free “Express” edition, and a paid enterprise edition. Microsoft Search Server 2008 is the next version of Office SharePoint Server 2007 For Search. They have basically taken MOSS 2007, stripped it down to just the index and search components, and then added […]
