One thing I noticed with the laptop and other products I bought at the weekend was that the packaging was all cardboard – easy to recycle. Is this a response to the Green push?? Share this post : Technorati Tags: Green IT
Just come across an interesting error. I have been experimenting in my virtual machines with some scripts for building and populating distribution groups. I have 2 DCs in the domain but only had one up and working (the RID Master) and got this error New-Mailbox : Active Directory operation failed on DC02.Manticore.org. This error is […]
