Five days and counting

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Would you believe we’re working on day 5 since I changed the DNS servers for this site and my home connection still does not consistently resolve to the new server? Of course this is the same ISP that told me back a few months ago when it couldn’t resolve the DNS for my other site to wait 14 days before contacting them for all their DNS servers to get updated. I assume that means that at any time, RoadRunner customers may be up to two weeks behind the rest of the world when it comes to DNS updates? Nice…

    You want to work in IT? You might want to stretch first, so you can stay nimble. I have a long list of projects that need done this week. That list changed twice yesterday, one project being moved to next week, and another being added to this week. Today, that added project has been postponed…

  • Archiving

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Can I ask a question to those of you who work in IT? I need some honest opinions here. I’m thinking about archiving some stuff off our file server onto CD because I don’t, in all honesty, think we need it at all, but some people are reluctant to delete anything “just in case I…

  • Embedded XP?

    According to Cringely’s latest at InfoWorld, the soon to be released Dell PDA’s will be running an embedded version of Windows XP, not Pocket PC 2002. Could that be what’s keeping the price down?

I’m happy to say that she is progressing, and they anticipate her being able to go home in time for Thanksgiving….

  • The things I won’t miss

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 3 minutes

    First off, I forgot one thing I will miss yesterday, the vacation time. Not only because taking a new job spoiled plans Angela and I were making but because I’m losing the “extra” vacation time earned by having been here a number of years. (I’ll go from 17 days per year back to 10) Of…

  • On the road again..

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Got the AV definitons rolled back on my machine and the AV working again. The Live Update reports no new updates are available, which makes me think that either the update file that I grabbed yesterday is bad, or is incompatible with our older version of the software. Oh well, it’s probably about time we…
