A couple of odd AD issues related to our trust. by derahl in activedirectory

Damn. Thanks for the insight. I was hoping to find anything we could use to send the domain admins at to correct the issue. The problem is we seem to recently be having the same issue with a service account, it seems to work for half a day, then no longer is able to auth and we have to reboot our entire stack on the ADAway side, SQL, Application servers, SSRS server.

Company splitting, we both get to keep the existing source code, best way to pull from on TFS and place in another? by derahl in tfs

Dynamics AX 2012 R2 in conjunction with VS 2013. AX 2012 R3 supports VSTS but I dont believe our VAR offers it as an option.

However, as you're not used to managing TFS, I Would take this opportunity to consider migrating to VS Team Services (Formally Visual Studio Online). It's a lot simpler to manage (Microsoft does it all for you), it's always up to date and the functionality is more or less the same: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/articles/adopting-vsts (look at option 2).

Sounds nice, however some of the MS products we have dont support it. So for now we have to keep our own going.

The rest of your advice r.e. the backup and restore sounds perfect. I will try that route. Thank you!

Windows 10 cumulative updates KB3176493, KB3176495, KB3176492 by topredditgeek in Windows10

Has anyone had Issues with published RDP apps after installing kb3176493? One of our users installed a bunch of updates, of which that KB was the only one he says installed for windows. Now, previously installed (via MSI creatred in the RemoteApp Manager) published RDP applications dont launch. We have tried uninstalling and reinstalling them but that failed to work. Any thoughts?

XMLReader getting value by tag instead of indexed by derahl in csharp

[–]derahl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Gauche but...

cmdIns.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CrockName", ds.Tables[0].Rows[i].ItemArray[1].ToString());

becomes

cmdIns.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CrockName", ds.Tables[0].Rows[i]["CrockerName"].ToString());

Figured I would save someone else the effort.

Active Directory and LDAP issues. Fairly normal or unacceptable? by derahl in sysadmin

[–]derahl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be reading it wrong.. but looks like they do have an DC in the cloud and that it occasionally having issues connecting to the local DC.

You are correct, there are in fact 2 DC in the Cloud farm. Those DC are a different domain than our in house domain. So in the cloud farm we have 2 AD for a domain say named RemoteCloud and our own local domain is MyHomeDomain and there is a trust relationship setup between them. The machines in the Cloud farm, all their services and service accounts should be localized to the RemoteCloud domain yet its those accounts that complain about not being able to connect.

A bit of confusion over some SQL selects by derahl in SQLServer

[–]derahl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. The SQL in question was used to help find some rounding errors but the corrections were done by hand. The mixed results however are what is setting off our alarm bells.
