    Change Username Alphabetization

    Are the potential dangers as bad as MS make them out to be or is it that easy to @*^% up? "may require you to reinstall Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, or both Windows and Exchange" is stronger...

    Change Username Alphabetization

    I cant imagine why usernames are alphabetized by first name instead of last name in AD. Kind of a pain. But whats worse is Exchange picks that up in the GAL. Is there a way to change it so usernames are alphabetized by last name? Thank you. Thank you very much.

    Doamin Controller Failover

    Cool. Consultant is telling me doing this is frought with problems, siezing the roles of DC1 being the problem. Im in the middle of the network upgrade, about to configure the second DC now. Im checking with you guys if I am getting bad info. Is the only concern DHCP is configured correctly?

    user-level security in Access 2007

    There is no user-level security in Access 2007" I thought I copied that right out of a MSKB article, but I cant find it now. Maybe I just paraphrased from: "User-level security does not exist in an .accdb file" http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918583 But Blue Horizon is correct about the...

    Admin Paranoia/Too Careful?

    While browsing files and folders on the NT4 PDC/file server in prep for moving data to Windows Server 2003 network, I noticed something odd. A number of files and folders show last modified dates of "12/31/99 7:00 PM". The odd part is one file in particular that I know wasnt on that server until...
