...today was fun. KB2687423 just showed the dirty code of our (access) programs. (Basically access front ends to SQL back-end) It turns out all "code" in most of our access programs basically behaves like some sort of hilarious, massive exploit. And naturally, I had to roll back.

Email: To all managed devices on airwatch subject: iOS7 body: Do not upgrade to iOS7. Thank you. I just saw when the upgrade process happens, it tags the last iTunes account signed in to the FW for the find my iPhone. I'm lax with them using their own itunes logins to download their games but if we need to remote wipe and they leave the company that device is useless. But the autoupdate for Airwatch is going to be awesome.

Loten posted:I'm currently in the process of decommissioning an old Certification Authority. I'm pretty much done migrating everything except I've got a number of currently valid Basic EFS (EFS) certificates issued to users. According to This TechNet article these are issued when users encrypt something, however the 3 users I've asked have no recollection of encrypting anything. I'm looking to purge the old certs/server and implement a new one because someone just next'd through a 2003 R2 install. Proper one ya know, with proper names. I've had a cursory glance at technet, but would like to know the pitfalls from actually doing it (that aren't documented).

A panicky phone call came in! Our org estranged c-level called me to purge out a email he sent to his lawyer....... ....which was actually sent to our sales team  . I had to search-mailbox -delete in every mailbox in sales(which was only 8 people). But It was pretty great catching someone forwarding the email to their gmail account.The funny thing though, I know what exactly happen though without them telling me. The message was sent in apple native mail client (which is comically a bad ideal™) and forgot to select the account to send from. incoherent fucked around with this message at 08:03 on Dec 31, 2013 |

Volmarias posted:How wrinkly was his scrotum in the dick pic he had you erase? I wish it was a goddamn picture. The email contents (from what I relayed, I really didn't want to read it to keep myself out of the politics) used the words "insolvent" and "lawsuits" and "equity firms". For the man who started the goddamn place, he never really trusted the infrastructure. I would of been a million times easier to clean this up if he just sent it from his ACUTAL work email instead of his private one back to the company. Let me tell you what, he believed in the power of exchange 2010 right then and there.

Sirotan posted:A server did not come in. We've got two on order from Dell and the shipping date has been pushed back twice now. My boss just followed up with our rep yet again and was told that not only are OUR servers delayed, but ALL servers on order are delayed due to a shortage of....internal power cables. Dell is completely hosed. I waited a week and a half on a quote, and I think everyone is dreading that 15,000 layoffs. It's showing.
