I have recently been reviewing placement of the WAP’s on our network, and the channels that we use. Until very recently, we had a mix of fixed AP’s in some areas, and mobile AP’s on laptop trolleys. In short, this didn’t work well. If someone moved a mobile AP into an area where it interfered

SharedServices1 (Unprovisioning) – Delete the SSP failed.
Just had to do a restore of our Sharepoint server. Someone had deleted a load of resources from our room bookings site, but also deleted from the Recycle Bin. We use Symantec Backup Exec 12 with the Sharepoint agents installed. Took a backup of the current state of the server (after all, it does work,

Been doing a routine check of my servers, and noticed that our SharePoint server was lacking some free space. A little unusual, given our SharePoint installation is quite small.

ISA 2006: Re-design
Just been working on our ISA infrastructure. We have 2 ISA servers, 1 for staff, and 1 for students. Main reason for the separate servers is that each ‘group’ have to go through a different upstream proxy server. (Bit of a pain, but that’s what we have to do.) Simple task this morning, block a
