Starting Over...

It's time to start over with this whole blogging thing. But it was important (to me at least) to figure out why this one died such a horrible death when it had so much potential. And I realized, that it's because of the darn namespace - "blogs.technet.com"...sort

Here's some info on some upcoming webcasts... This first series is for the "Technical Decision Makers", but I'll post the "IT Pro" series when they get announced. -Brian -------------- Microsoft offers a broad range of technologies and products to enable

ADFS Documentation

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a blog where someone was posting documentation about ADFS? Well looky here - apparently this has been around for a while, but since I just recently discovered it I thought I'd share... http://blogs.technet.com/adfs_documentation

Who's on... huh?

If Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were alive today, their infamous sketch, "Who's on First?" might have turned out something like this: COSTELLO CALLS TO BUY A COMPUTER FROM ABBOTT ABBOTT : Super Duper computer store. Can I help you? COSTELLO : Thanks. I'm

First Post with Live Writer

Don't expect a whole lot here - I just installed Live Writer and wanted to see what it was going to be like. Feels vaguely similar to Onenote, which is good, since I like Onenote - I think I'll keep it... maybe it will help me blog more often. This post

ADFS and Liability Continued...

hmm...let's see...I wrote a blog, Pam left a comment, I replied to her comment with another blog, and so (if you haven't seen it yet) Pam posted her own blog entry here ... This is actually kind of fun! You should read (all of) her posts anyways, but

Comment on ADFS Liability

ADFS and Domain Admins (or anyone else for that matter)

I spend a lot of time answering questions or making comments in e-mails that would make good blog posts. So it may seem a bit cheesy (at least it does to me), but it's turning out that reposting these e-mails seems like an easy way to do this...so here's

Useful repadmin switch

Repadmin is the "swiss army knife" of AD tools - But the following can be one of those "big red buttons" that you keep in your back pocket and hopefully never need. But sometimes it's just useful to slow things down until you figure out what's going on...

AD Training

hmmm....ok, so here's an interesting problem: I'm a Microsoft employee. My blog is hosted on Technet.com. And I'm pretty sure that there is a policy somewhere, which I'm unaware of, that addresses blog posts about 3rd party companies... But I've never

AD and DC Builds, tweaks, configurations... The Registry

The first installment, what our hardware looks like, may have been useful...but I know that's not really the juicy gossip that everyone is looking for...so here's a quick and follow-up with the registry tweaks that we set internally... Strict Replication

AD and DC Builds, tweaks, configurations... (1)

I received a mail from a blog reader (Jim) who asked: "Can you provide any insight regarding and tweaks or configuration settings you guys use on your DC builds?" Sure, I'm happy to do this, so here I am typing happily along, and realized that there is

Interesting SSID and Reusing Attributes

I bought a new truck a few months ago, and right on schedule (as the salesman promised), as I was coming due for my first oil change, I got a card for my first one free at the dealership. Never being one to turn down a free deal, I dropped in the other

ADFS Certificate Maintenance - v1

Over the past several weeks, we've celebrated the 1 year anniversary of our ADFS deployment. I say it this way, because the only reason I know this, is that the certificates on the servers keep expiring, and things would break unexpectedly. Yeah, yeah,
