PowerShell wrapper scripts to find locked accounts and prompt to unlock
I wanted a quick way to find if an account is locked out (you get the call “I can’t log in”) and unlock it. I had a wrapper script that just called “Search-ADAccount –LockedOut” but I took it a bit further. The first of these two wrapper scripts/functions gets all the accounts that are locked…

Start Visual Studio form PowerShell
I am moving on to a new project – our migration from SharePoint 2007 to 2010. First thing I wanted to do was to upgrade my Solutions/Features from 2007 to 2010. I installed Visual Studio and started looking at how to recreate my Delegate JQuery Control (more on that later). The first thing I found annoying…

Deploy Visual Studio 2010 vai SCCM (silently)
I wanted to have Visual Studio 2010 on my machine. My motto is that if I have to install it, I should package it up in SCCM, so when I re-image, I can just press a button. Here were my steps. Nothing ground breaking in this post, but I wanted to document it for my…

Photos.app on my iPhone crashes, and Mac does not see any photos on my iPhone (iOS5)
Crap!!!! I had close to 400 pictures on my iPhone. I back it up all the time, but I had not “processed them” (my workflow is to use Image Capture.app to pull photos off of the iPhone, and into a folder, that I then import into iPhoto. I zip up (compress) the original folder containing…

Cisco ASA and smart tunnels – my experience on OS X 10.7
I have been playing with smart tunnels on my Cisco ASA. The documentation is a little scarce on examples, so I thought I would post what I have found. On OS X, not much appears to work (I only tried with Safari). Maybe this post will help someone, or they will post a comment on…

Send WordPress post to Google Plus (Not show Google+ on my WordPress site)
I was surprised that I could not find a plugin that would add a new WordPress post to Google+. I saw plugins that showed my Google+ profile card or added a +1 button to my site, but nothing to send a new post automatically to Google+. I can do this with the Twitter Tools plugin…

On demand iPhone vpn connection to a Cisco ASA
This was a proof of concept that I worked on with @xrobx99. Thanks @xrobx99 for your help. We were interested in how our users could access SharePoint behind our firewall on their mobile devices. We currently have an Cisco ASA in front of our organization. Idea is this: user receives an email notification from SharePoint that…

Cisco ASA memory issues – disable webvpn cache may fix?
The credit for this article goes to @xrobx99. I wanted to blog about his discovery so that others might find the solution quicker. We have an Cisco ASA that we had to reboot every month because the memory would keep growing. We thought it was a memory leak (and it may have been in previous…

Cisco ASA: tunnel-group commands and Connection Profiles
I have to say, it is difficult to learn Cisco products. I have been hacking away at my new Cisco ASA 5505, and it is not easy. One of the toughest things is that the ASDM displays the configuration one way, but when you look at the config, it is completely different. For example, ASDM…
