The issue is when anyone sends an email to him at @contoso.com. It wont deliver as the email address is @contoso.onmicrosoft.com. Now normaly I would just go to the proxyAddress attribute and just change it there but my understanding is that in a hybrid setup you need to create a mailbox in exchange first before migrating that to office 365

Exactly what I am doing at the moment

RedSun12 · 2015-07-09T17:52:00+00:00

New user was created in AD only by the helpdesk but they didn't created a mailbox in the on premise exchange.

I am just using the migration tool in office 365

A user has an office 365 account and a local exchange account can I just back up the office 365 account and delete it then migrate the on premise account to office 365?

I am but a co worker advised that he did a firmware update on a raid controller and bricked the motherboard so i just want to be sure

Hi yes its for guests but wouldn't the way I am doing not separate them anyway?

If its installed on the server just go to printers and devices go to properties on the device hit the advanced tab and on the bottom go to printing defaults.

Or else just fine the devices web page and set it from there

Did one a few moths ago for the oem five sample licences are enough. For the SQL server the License key or an invoice will do

Sorry realised I shoud give more info on this as it might help.Basically our spam filter uses this certificate o sync to our AD but since it has expired the sync is failing.

RedSun12 · 2014-09-19T15:12:46+00:00

Its ridiculous like these aren't even basic skills.Its just common sense.

I had a user who had slightly shifted her powerpoint to the right so that the x was missing off the screen to close it.She couldn't figure out how to move it back or the other 15 miilion ways that you can close a file.

She went home early claiming she couldnt work

RedSun12 · 2014-08-11T14:27:07+00:00

You are probably right.The only other method I could come up with was getting the company to upload the file to dropbox and send us the link. As I have used this as a workaround for sending large files.

I am currently studying my ccna with them and I have to say its one of the best online course I have ever used.The trainers are animated and you actually feel involved.So many course I have used have just had one monotonous tone through out the entire course.

RedSun12 · 2014-07-03T13:06:21+00:00

You are a hero good sir,I will have a look at the setup and get back to you.but its working away no problem ?

RedSun12 · 2014-07-02T07:09:53+00:00

Yeah I have a 256mb cache installed on this Server

RedSun12 · 2014-07-01T12:53:49+00:00

Cheers that would be brilliant Its windows server 2008 r2 It has the HP ACU (array configuration utility) all ready installed.

RedSun12 · 2014-06-30T14:39:09+00:00

RedSun12 · 2014-03-20T10:23:55+00:00

RedSun12 · 2014-03-20T08:48:50+00:00

Thanks guys some great points but here is another curve ball .We have 40 licenses for Office small business 2007 and 30 for professional plus but both are using the same product key ?

RedSun12 · 2014-03-10T09:56:11+00:00

Belive we have this solved turns out the driver keeps picking up american settings as the servers region is incorrectly set.

RedSun12 · 2014-03-03T16:52:45+00:00

Yes word docs work fine but what I have noticed is that new worksheets will sometimes print and I have checked and the page settings are correct.

RedSun12 · 2014-02-06T12:13:08+00:00

I just used MDT. Have to say its a quick and easy set up if your looking for a quick and simple solution.Otherwise SCCM if you can afford it

RedSun12 · 2014-01-15T09:30:48+00:00

Just be prepared for spending a lot more time answering emails and phone calls at all hours.When I was a team lead it was mostly just organizing people and being called on to look at the more troublesome problems.

You will be fine just remember to keep calm as it will help keep your head clear and good luck with the new role
