I am finally moved into my new place, buying toothpaste sucks. Pictures soon

Update: I have no internet at the new place. so this blog will be stale for a bit untill i get things like that worked out.

so i beta-ed windows one care my computer was just going crazy and i noticed this

Great feature for people who dont watch this stuff. I am impressed that Microsoft finally has a tool to do the work like this. only bummer is looks like they are going to charge a subscription rate for the tool.

NCa just purchased a new company –  Networks. since I am the internal IT I went down to portland to network-up the offices and install a AD/Exchange box.

i went Tuesday night

So everything was going peechy (surprising well for what it entailed) and then BAM no email traversing from site to site via Exchange2000/SMTP well not bam but it was a huge problem.

i got home to Seattle just to drive back Thursday morning…

So I broke down and after googeling everything about SMTP failed on site addition and extra exchange server SMTP failed. I gave up and called Microsoft. Thats a 245$ phone call for those of you that are wondering.

So as time ticks apu is looking at my server. Then he says ah-ha (he really said that) and then asked do you use a PIX i was like yes i do. Then he said here

So i was like booooo-yea problem solved. now i just need to explain to my boss why i spent 245 on a firewall problem when we have a dozen CISSP in house. great!

Apu was looking around for more bugs and fixed up some issues with Site Connectors then he said something that surprised me. He told me that in this particular case Microsoft was not to blame. and because i had set up the exchange environment the way it should be that he cant charge me since it was 3rd party. I was like OH YEA BABY (seriously)

so then i went home.

yes i am a nerd, but i am very good at it.

for the last week i have been trying to get a nameless two-factor login proto call to work. its a nightmare. I cant post much on it cuz well its top secret. but its stressing me out (this is also the first post where i say my current feelings) damn kelly don't break that record.
