Windows System state analyzer tool
Helps create snapshots of the computer—some of which include fixed drives, services, drivers and the registry. Users can create two snapshots at different points in time and compare them to view differences. A detailed report could be generated at the end of a compare operation.
 

What does this mean for you?  It means you now have a tool that you can use to take a snapshot of  your server, save the output to a snapshot file, and then compare it to another snapshot from the same system, or another system all together and compare the differences.

Granted it can be quite verbose (detailed report), but in my test I flipped a few registry keys for diagnsotics, and started a couple of services and they showed up in the quick report as expected.

Why is this useful to me?  You can configure your domain controller with all the registry keys you like, drivers you want on a certain platform (DL380 G2), services enabled/disabled and directories you want unchanged. Save that snapshot for a rainy day when you get an escalation on another DC.  You know what your good DC looks like (You have the snapshot) now you can compare that to DC that is not working correctly and see if some of the settings are different.

Het mega artikel van Thomas Shinder over Exchange 2007 OWA publicatie via ISA 2006 loopt bijan op zijn eind. Dit artikel gaat opnieuw verder waar hij gebleven was.
 

In this article we will do the following:

  • Export the CA certificate of the CA that issued the ISA Firewall’s Web Listener certificate
  • Import the CA certificate into the client machine’s Trusted Root Certification Authorities machine certificate store
  • Edit the HOSTS file on the client machine so that we can mimic a public split DNS infrastructure
  • Create an Outlook 2007 profile and configure the RPC/HTTP settings
  • Start the Outlook 2007 client and confirm that RPC/HTTP is working correctly
  • Test the OWA client connectivity
  • Test the ActiveSync connectivity

Marc Grote heeft een artikel geplaatst over de configuratie van Outlook 2007 voor Exchange 2007. Dit lijkt triviaal maar de nieuwe autodiscovery service van Exchange 2007 maakt dat het toch anders gaat dan we tot nu toe gewend waren.

Hi. You probably already heard the update on WS2008 release to manufacturing (RTM), now scheduled for 1st quarter of 2008 instead of end of year 2007. As a result...
 
The transition exams 70-648 and 70-649 will be available on October 29, 2007, now. They were scheduled for September 20, but the changes/slip in technology mean some items on our exams are affected, too. 
If you took the beta for either of these exams (71-648 or 71-649), your result should be available no later than October 29 (or a few weeks before).
The MCTS exams are still scheduled for RTM +30 days; the MCITP exams are still scheduled for RTM +60. Don't know what I'm talking about? Read about the WS2008 certification family.
