A few weeks ago my mom and I were going to Seattle to see a play in the evening. We decided to try to come up with something else to do during the day prior to dinner and the play. When the day came, we finally settled on visiting our local Color Me Mine shop in Mill Creek. My mom had been to another shop like this previously but it was my first experience. Now, I’m not too artistic but I decided to just go for it and try something. I needed a fruit bowl for the kitchen so that’s what I decided to paint. My mother chose a vase and it turned out very nice. I’m pretty happy with my fruit bowl, but it definitely shows signs of a beginner. I guess you could say that’s part of the charm.

I had another network account issue with our Apple at work. Got that one solved and then we finally got the software from Adobe for CS4 after a couple hours on the phone convincing them that they had already said we would get it before they changed their mind. Well, that’s a whole other story I don’t have time for. This problem lies in the fact that Acrobat for some reason has a problem reading or writing to a file on a network share. Since the user’s home drive is connected to the network share, Acrobat will crash every time they try to open a file. Log in with a local user account and everything works great. After figuring out where the problem lay, I found a posting on the Adobe Forums about this exact issue. I’ve been trying to get our web and print design specialist at work set up with an Apple that was donated to us. It’s not a bad machine but one of the older ones running the Power PC hardware. It’s also running OS X version 10.4.11. Apples are completely new to me so it’s been a challenge. I figured out how to get it to be part of our Active Directory domain a while ago so I thought all would be fine but there have been quite a few problems getting it to work smoothly. One of the issues is logging on to the computer when home drives are assigned through the Active Directory profile. As a Domain Admin, when I would sign in I would get the message
and it would not log me in. Upon trying again immediately, it would log me in and my home drive would be mapped just fine! I thought it was annoying but we could deal with it at first but when I had the user try to log in with an account that was not an admin they repeatedly got the error and were not able to log on at all. I’ve been working on setting up an ISA Server 2006 to be a VPN connection for employees. I had it working and then the next day it wouldn’t work. I looked and saw that the Routing and Remote Access service had been not only stopped but disabled. I would turn it back on and then a few hours later it would be disabled. It was really frustrating me. We had used the server for another purpose previously and not reinstalled the OS so I even did that. No luck. The problem kept coming back. The link below led me to think of Group Policy and I did an rsop.msc on the server to find it was the workstation policy affecting the server. Created a new OU outside the range of the policy which should have been done a long time ago anyways and the problem has been resolved. No more services getting disabled. These are the steps I followed to set up a new exchange server which will eventually replace the original exchange server. Before installation, decide on the best partitioning strategy available with the given hardware. Raid 1 (Mirroring) should be the minimum for redundancy purposes. Raid 5 is generally not the best because of the additional work of calculating parity. Consider these options: RAID 1 = Pagefile RAID 0+1 = SMTP and MTA queues RAID 1 = Log files from one Exchange Server storage group RAID 0+1 = Exchange Server databases from storage group |
