Ok - so from Outlook, you've been able to share your calendar with another user for ages. The problem is there haven't really been many options around automating this. Well - enter some handy new features in Exchange 2010. The calendar sharing feature introduced in Outlook Web App 2010 (OWA) allows a user to grant access to their calendar to another user. To access the option, click on the Share option when in the Calendar and then on Share This Calendar. You’ll then be able to select ...

This blog has been sorely neglected since I got caught up with our school's switch between MIS providers. So, in an effort to rescue it from the hordes of one-post blogs on the web, here, for no good reason at all, are some of the text editors I have known: Notepad Yes, we all have to start somewhere… Wordpad Has a better time with Linux/Unix new line breaks than Notepad, but it's a rich text editor >_< Pico ...
As more of us are deploying Windows 7 in School like me you will find something annoying about the Navigation pane. There is a "Network" icon shown are there is no built in group policy to remove this. I have found a custom ADM template that will allow us to remove it. I have attached it on this post. Hope you will find it useful! Steps on how to add an ADM template can be found here: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/art...8-Vista-7.html

From time to time you may wish to find out who is logged into a machine. I find this batch file handy for doing this. Its quick, simple and easy. Just copy and paste the below code into notepad and save the file as who.bat Code: @echo off :CHECK echo Checking Connection ... ping %1 -n 1 | findstr "TTL=" >nul && GOTO MAIN || GOTO ERROR GOTO END :ERROR echo Device Unreachable GOTO END ...

Once you have entered you old name and your new name the computer concerned will automatically reboot and your all done! All you have to do is make sure nobody is using the machine and that the new computer name ...
Well that sucks. I've had to convert the head-node into a CC3 desktop because one has died [power supply failure] and I've also had to rip the power button from one of the nodes. That brings it down to 3 computers I can use. While it's stil possible, I think, the fact they're RM F-series and weak beyond belief[/opinion] would render any added power from the clustering moot. Sorry to anyone who was actually interested. The project is dead. ...
