Scripting

I’ve spent the last few days working on a web application to allow administrators to manage users from a web page. This kind of thing is pretty easy using and .

Once the code is stable I’ll put a detailed description on my programming page. Check back in a day or two.

Summer’s gone

Well, the students are back in school. Next week will be pretty crazy as we get everything going. Hopefully things will calm down after that.

Also, I attended the Microsoft TechNet Briefing today. I learned a lot about Exchange 2000 and SQL 2000, and got some cool free stuff. I’ll start posting some Windows 2000 information here soon.

Two new articles

Two new articles have been added to the windows section on Home Directories and Logon Scripts. Now if I can just find some decent looking graphics for the site…

New layout

I think I finally found a layout for the site that I can live with. It will probably stay this way for a while. In a few days I should have an interesting article on Windows logon scripts using VBScript.

School’s out

Wow, it’s been almost two months since I last updated this page. That’s sad. Anyway, school’s out for summer now so maybe things will slow down a bit at work. I’ve already taken one week of vacation and I’m anxiously awaiting July 1.

Broadband

We finally have cable modems in Paris, and the performance is unbelievable. I’ll never go back to dial up Internet access. Use my new e-mail address now – anthony@anthonylewis.com.

I also decided to stop selling computers. I’m going to try to dedicate more of my spare time to studying programming and Unix. If you were planning on buying a computer from me, I’m sorry I won’t be able to help you now. I can still help you with prices and features.

Good Friday

This was the worst “Good Friday” I’ve ever had. I drove 100 miles to take two of my Microsoft Certification tests and when I got there the testing center was closed. I was in a hurry to leave town so we didn’t stop to get cash. We realized that we forgot the ATM card when we got to Dallas. To top it all off I got a speeding ticket for doing 59 in a 40. What a day…

Software news

My redesign is just about finished. Let me know what you think about it.

There’s also some interesting news to add today. According to Blizzard, Diablo II will not be released until the first part of next year. What will I ask Santa for now?

The good news is Samba 2.0.6 was released yesterday. This new release fixes many bugs and adds a few new features. This is great news for anyone integrating Unix and Windows computers.

Hopefully I’ll have some really interesting news to post Monday…
