    - gpupdate /force requires reboot? Hi there, Using Windows Server 2003 on a domain, full 2003 native mode. Every time I make a change to group policies and objects, I then use "gpupdate /force" in a command window. It does it's thing and then it always asks me if I want to restart the server now Y/N. Pain in the butt it is..... so usually to get things going, I'll do just that...... Is this right? Seems to me something's missing somewhere......?? Thanks, Gordon Tag: Boson any good? Tag: 144226

    - IT Certifications; are they worth the cost of training.... I have been the network admin. for my company for over 3 years. Now my peers think that I need to grab some certs for job security and better pay. I don't have any certs at this time and never really gave it much thought til now. Is it that important?

    - OT: Attention Florida MCSE's (to keep it sort of on-topic) (Original source unknown) Hurricane Preparation for Floridians After this past week we all should be aware of hurricane preparations, but in case you need a refresher course: We're into the enter the peak of the hurricane season. Any day now, you're going to turn on the TV and see a weather person pointing to some radar blob out in the Atlantic Ocean and making two basic meteorological points. (1) There is no need to panic. (2) We could all be killed. Yes, hurricane season is an exciting time to be in Florida. If you're new to the area, you're probably wondering what you need to do to prepare for the possibility that we'll get hit by "the big one." Based on our insurance industry experiences, we recommend that you follow this simple three-step hurricane preparedness plan: STEP 1: Buy enough food and bottled water to last your family for at least three days. STEP 2: Put these supplies into your car. STEP 3: Drive to Nebraska and remain there until Halloween. Unfortunately, statistics show that most people will not follow this sensible plan. Most people will foolishly stay here in Florida. We'll start with one of the most important hurricane preparedness items: Homeowner's Insurance: If you own a home, you must have hurricane insurance. Fortunately, this insurance is cheap and easy to get, as long as your home meets two basic requirements: (1) It is reasonably well-built, and (2) It is located in Wisconsin Unfortunately, if your home is located in Florida, or any other area that might actually be hit by a hurricane, most insurance companies would prefer not to sell you hurricane insurance, because then they might be required to pay YOU money, and that is certainly not why they got into the insurance business in the first place. So you'll have to scrounge around for an insurance company, which will charge you an annual premium roughly equal to the replacement value of your house. At any moment, this company can drop you like used dental floss. Shutters: Your house should have hurricane shutters on all the windows and all the doors. There are several types of shutters, with advantages and disadvantages: Plywood shutters: The advantage is that, because you make them yourself, they're cheap. Sheet-metal shutters: The advantage is that these work well, once you get them all up. The disadvantage is that once you get them all up, your hands will be useless bleeding stumps, and it will be December. Roll-down shutters: The advantages are that they're very easy to use, and will definitely protect your house. The disadvantage is that you will have to sell your house to pay for them. Hurricane-proof windows: These are the newest wrinkle in hurricane protection: They look like ordinary windows, but they can withstand hurricane winds! You can be sure of this, because the salesman says so. He lives in Nebraska. Hurricane Proofing your property: As the hurricane approaches, check your yard for movable objects like barbecue grills, planters, patio furniture, visiting relatives, etc.. You should, as a precaution, throw these items into your swimming pool (if you don't have a swimming pool, you should have one built (immediately). Otherwise, the hurricane winds will turn these objects into deadly missiles. Evacuation Route: If you live in a low-lying area, you should have an evacuation route planned out. (To determine whether you live in a low-lying area, look at your driver's license; if it says "Florida," you live in a low-lying area). The purpose of having an evacuation route is to avoid being trapped in your home when a major storm hits. Instead, you will be trapped in a gigantic traffic jam several miles from your home, along with two hundred thousand other evacuees. So, as a bonus, you will not be lonely. Hurricane Supplies: If you don't evacuate, you will need a mess of supplies. Do not buy them now! Florida tradition requires that you wait until the last possible minute, then go to the supermarket and get into vicious fights with strangers over who gets the last can of SPAM. In addition to food and water, you will need the following supplies: At least 23 flashlights and at least $167 worth of batteries that will turn out, when the power goes off, to be the wrong size for the flashlights. Bleach. (No, I don't know what the bleach is for. NOBODY knows what the bleach is for, but it's traditional, so GET some!) A big knife that you can strap to your leg. (This will be useless in a hurricane, but it looks cool.) A large quantity of raw chicken, to placate the alligators. (Ask anybody who went through Andrew; after the hurricane, there WILL be irate alligators.) $35,000 in cash or diamonds so that, after the hurricane passes, you can buy a generator from a man with no discernible teeth. Of course these are just basic precautions. As the hurricane draws near, it is vitally important that you keep abreast of the situation by turning on your television and watching TV reporters in rain slickers stand right next to the ocean and tell you over and over how vitally important it is for everybody to stay away from the ocean. Good luck, and remember: It's great living in Paradise!! -- Fris "irate Gators?" bee®, MCNGP #13 The MCNGP Team - We're here to help! http://www.mcngp.com Certaholics http://groups.yahoo.com/group/certaholics Tag: Boson any good?

    - MCSE 2000 Design Exams Hi all, Due to my recent relief of passing 70-216, the time has come to pick which design exam to use for MCSE 2000. Ive kind of looked at the different ones for each but still dont have any incline as to which to choose. I initially though of 221 (Infrastructure) as i would feel more comfortable on the whole infrastructure rather than working with AD Admin. However ive read in places this exam is very difficult, does anybody have any thoughts or ideas on them (having already sat the exams). i.e. given the chance to sit again would you choose the same exam or pick something different.

    - Cheap MCSE training I'm a courtesy clerk working at a local grocery store earning a bit more than minimum wage. I'm thinking about going for MCSE certification, but I can't afford the $3k+ that local schools want for the training. Do I have any other options? Does Federal financial aid pay for this kind of training? My income is low enough to qualify if it does. Tag: Boson any good? Tag: 143709

    - Passed 70-216 Passed 70-216 yesterday after many weeks hard work. Not an easy one and by far much harder than 210/215/217. Hoping to do 218 before the end of the week to complete my MCSA (should be a walk in the park compared to 216). :) Not much emphasis on WINS but seemed to be a lot on subnetting so if your studying for this exam, make sure you know it!

    - My Abject Apology to all Canadians. My Abject Apology to all Canadians. I am sorry I offended you and your friends. I generally like most Canadians. I based my statements on only a hundred or so technicians for one specific company. While I was responsible for bailing them out of technical situations, much of that I blame on their management and not the technicians themselves, there were a few good techs also. It was my intent only to tease not to inflame passions and start a flame war.

    - Renaming Domain Controllers in mixed mode Hi, I am currently studying 70-292 using Syngress and in that book stated that I cannot rename a domain controller in 2000 mixed mode but I just did. According to this book, I can only rename a domain controller only in a 2003 domain functional level, not in 2000 Native or mixed. I have a Windows 2003 Standard running as DC and a WinNT 4.0 as a BDC. Forest functional is in 2000 mode and domain functional is in 2000 Mixed mode. After renaming the Windows 2003 DC (DNS and Netbios name), I rebooted the machine. After went online, the WinNT 4.0 BDC can still connect to the Win2003. I have another Win2000 DC running in a totally different domain (in 2000 Native mode) but in the same forest and this machine I am not able to rename. So I am slightly confused here. What is actually happening or the book is in error? Would be glad if someone is able to help. Tag: Boson any good? Tag: 143448

    - 70-220 whew!! I just passed 70-220, designing security for a win 2000 nework, but it was close, too close. In my prep I found the best ref was the MS 70-220 kit. The Syngress text, which is usually pretty good, was absolutely worthless. Usually Transcender is a very good prep for the kinds of questions you will get. But in the case of 70-220 it fell short. I did not think I would take all the time(4hr) but I did. I am glad I had my lucky shirt on. That was probably what saved me. Tag: Boson any good? Tag: 143434

Hi there,

Seeing a lot of feedback from you on the certification sites....

I wonder if the Boson certification practice tests are any good?

I tried the 70-291 demo with 12 questions, and they seem such outrageous
questions. Are they trying to scare us into thinking that the exam is so
hard that we should buy their practice tests?

Thanks,

Gordon

(studying on 70-291)
