[Snippet] Checking a Global Catalog is really a Global Catalog
Posted on March 9, 2010
Use an LDAP browser or ADSI Editor to connect to the port 3268 Global Catalog communication is performed over TCP port 3268, regular LDAP lookups are sent to TCP port 389.
After assigning a GC role to a server, check its Directory Services event log for event number 1119, which indicates successful obtaining a role of a Global Catalog server
Ridiculously simple NTLM Authentication for Apache (Ubuntu)
Posted on March 9, 2010
We all know Ubuntu makes things amazingly simple. This is the best I've found so far. NTLM authentication in Apache used to take a while to setup, it used to be tricky, fiddly - generally a bit hit and miss.
[Snippet] Connecting to Windows 2008 Server from XP
Posted on January 25, 2010
By default, Windows 2008 requires Network Level Authentication to connect via RDP/Terminal Services. This is not supported on Windows XP. It is supported on XP SP3 but its a dirty hack to get working. Try it if you like. Or, change the security settings on Windows 2008, select Allow connections from computers running any version Remote Desktop (less secure).
This also works for XP -> Vista connections.
Installing Windows Server 2008 on PERC 4/DC
Posted on January 25, 2010
Got an older server like a Dell PowerEdge 2850 or a 2900 that you want to install Windows Server 2008 on?
You'll need to provide extra drivers for Windows to see the PERC RAID array.
I downloaded the Windows 2003 PERC 4/DC drivers from Dell.

Managing User Shares in Windows
Posted on January 8, 2010
So you've probably got a Users folder with directories in matching all your Windows users, so they all have a private "home" drive on your server?
Ever tried to manage permissions on them, or messed permissions up? Or managed to make your Director's files world-readable?
Mananging Exchange users and attributes from your XP desktop
Posted on January 6, 2010
So you are lazy and don't want to waste valuable seconds of your life connecting to an Exchange server to manage a recipient. Easy, add the Exchange attributes to your local copy of Active Directory Management Tools.
Works for Exchange 2000 and 2003 and Windows XP, probably works for the rest as well.
Responding to a Schema Master Failure
Posted on December 30, 2009
There is a little known FSMO role in Active Directory called Schema Master, quite simply it manages changes to your Active Directory Schema. Whilst this is down, no schema changes can be made. Chances are, you'll forget to move this role as it isn't listed in the usual Operations Masters tab.
Does anyone know why?! Anyway, if you've ever lost or moved a Domain Controller, chances are you didn't move this role.
