  1. Re:Exchange nightmares - DB and Client stories on When Is Exchange Inappropriate For The Enterprise? · · Score: 1

    On the client side the DB (.ost file) also is subjec to frequent corruption and is utterly unrecoverable Try running "SCANPST.EXE" on the file. SCANPST is installed by default with Outlook and works on .pst and .ost files. (Sometimes you have to run it more than once....)

  2. Re:Exchange nightmares. on When Is Exchange Inappropriate For The Enterprise? · · Score: 1

    I know of an experianced Exchange Admin who might be looking for some short term consulting work.I could clean up the virus action and have everyone back up in no time....

  3. Exchange works for me. on When Is Exchange Inappropriate For The Enterprise? · · Score: 1

    I administer five Exchange boxes (Quad P-III Xeon 450's with 1GB RAM each) to support over 3500 users. We have one site that is spread out over about 7 geograpic locations and is connected with OC-48. Uptime and reliablity are VERY importiant for the company that I'm working for. I have never had any significant problems with Exchange, in fact I have been very surprised at it's performance. My biggest problem is training users (and management) about the things that they can do with Exchange. Exchange is one product that MS got right.

  4. Why not use a uniform voting system? on Statistics, Elections, Frustration · · Score: 1

    If EVERY polling place used the EXACT same system we would not have this problem. The voting equipment should be agreed on ahead of time by a "non-partisan" (at least as much as that is possible.)

    Federal elections should be federally funded and organized, including purchasing / maintaining equipment.

    Popular Vote vs. Electoral College should be examined, but let's not be too quick to toss out the old. Perhaps a system like Maine where the Electoral votes are split, but the winner of the state gets a bonus?

    NH is winner take all. Most people do know that.
