Going to be a busy one

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Of course I knew today was going to be a day I hit the ground running when I got the call around 8 last night because one of our people was having a hard time with his laptop. The really sad thing is, it was my fault. I made a configuration change so that he could accomplish something yesterday and didn’t take the time to check out all of the consequences of that change. Everything was working fine until he took the laptop home last night and blam, he couldn’t get in.

I got him in last night over the phone so he could work on some things but I need to undo that change and get things setup the way they used to be for him.

    Now this might be an interesting thing to install on PC’s here at the office. Not because there aren’t already super-simple ways to backup your personal folders, (just close Outlook and copy your .pst folder to the network on a regular basis, for example..) but because I can set it to remind people to backup…

  • The real patch

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    nf0 was kind enough to post the actual link to the Outlook patch in the forum. Thanks! I was too busy to really look through the news story about it carefully and completely missed the fact that, once again, the news story didn’t provide an actual link to the patch. It would be helpful if…
