I know the feeling of your secure network being compromised by an end user… Passwords do fall into the wrong hands and then what do you do? Scenarios start running through my head and I make a mental list of all the passwords and system configs that need to be changed. These aren’t fun times [...]

You know the saying, “You can’t have too much RAM or too much storage.”
Well, there is at least one case where a lot of RAM can cause problems.
My current desktop had 1 Gig of RAM and I recently bought an additional 2 Gigs since the price was so low. (And of course I used [...]

As avid Windows users you have seen how applications add right click menu options. For instance Mcafee antiVirus adds a shortcut to Scan For Threats in the selected folder or Resco’s options to encrypt or de-crypt a folder.

Everyone knows your friendly neighborhood admin is all about shortcut keys and uber productivity.
I don’t know how I never found this one before… Check it out you have your quick launch buttons displayed next to your start menu for easy access.
By default you have Show Desktop, IE and whatever other applications you installed. Now you [...]

We have used many different retail programs to recover accidentally or maliciously deleted files off of our PC, Digital Camera or Mobile device. We have tried a few free ones and they bring us back to the old saying… You get whatcha pay for! As such we never really covered the topic here on Ata, [...]

Well if you can get to your desktop you should be able to run Double Driver and copy your drivers off your machine to a USB stick and then restore them right back into your fresh clean formatted system! We covered something a little while [...]

So are you wondering why you would want to save your searches?
Think about it… How would you like the ability to dynamically find the items you need with a saved search? So the boss called and said – I need all the purchase orders less than a months old and tagged Smith?

This morning we had a request for adding a “High Priority Folder”.
This would be a top level folder that shows up on your Windows desktop and in My Computer. Didn’t think you could do that? Well read on…
The folder we will be creating can not be removed – just like My Computer or My Documents. [...]
I had the pleasure of attempting to migrate a print server this weekend. I mean I had to figure out a quick and efficient way to install the 70 some odd printers on a new server. I was not going to be doing this manually that was for shit sure! I had some junior admins [...]

Just remember, as someone once commented about when I first posted about Zimbra and getting away from MS where you can, “if you’re not using MS you wont be taken seriously.”

Glad you liked it Karl. It truly is a great product that will only get better.

Actually you’ll want to goto:
http://www.zimbra.com/demo
This will let you create a demo account of your own. Accounts will last for about 24hrs. So plenty of time to test.

I am loving it. I want to marry it, and have 12 children with it. I want to grow old with it, and be buried with it in a shallow grave just outside of town where that old gas station used to be. You know the one, where they had the soft serve ice cream.
I love soft serve ice cream. But not as much as Zimbra!
