Greetings,
I started following some instructions on how to get Outlook to connect to Exchange Server 2003 over HTTP, and when I got to the point in the "More Settings" area of the Exchange Server Mailbox setup where I did not see the checkbox I was supposed to on the "Connection" tab. Apparently there's supposed to be one that says "Connect to my Exchange mailbox using HTTP" but I don't see that - instead it's just empty space.
Funny thing is, I do see that on my laptop's Outlook so it works fine on that computer. Does anyone know why I'm not seeing these options on my desktop machine?

I have a server that has a stats package on it. I have 2 load-balanced web servers, and all of these boxes are NOT on a domain.
I need to get log files off the two web servers, but in order to do that I must successfully authenticate against both of them using their local credentials. Is there any way that I can set something up so that my stats box can always have access to the shares that I've set up without having to manually enter the proper credentials?

I'm putting together three new sessions for VSLive! in San Francisco. One of these is a session that introduces messaging as an alternative to a more linear approach to network application design. I've implemented MSMQ on a few different applications. One was an accounts payable front end application to an accounting package, and the company that I did it for marveled in the fact that even through their accounting package was down, the accounts payable clerks were still able to work away as if nothing was wrong.
Another application in which I implemented MSMQ was an online commerce application. The web site was up and running for almost a year before the company decided to implement an enterprise back-end accounting system. I decided that regardless of what happened with accounting, people who place orders should be able to enjoy a technobabble-free shopping experience.
As I prepare this session, I was curious if anyone had any interesting implementations of messaging (particularly with MSMQ) in their applications or industries. Any ideas I mention in the session will be accompanied by proper plugs.
Looking forward to hearing new ideas!

So here's the deal. I have this Dell Latitude D600 laptop and I've recently installed Windows Server 2003 with the expectation of leaving this on 24x7 with the cover closed (anyone experienced with this is welcome to chime in on that concept).
The problem I'm having is I cannot find a way to set the thing to shut off the monitor when I close the cover. When I bring up the display properties and go to the power settings on the screen saver tab, I'm not able to choose anything under the setting that is supposed to allow me to decide what happens when I close the cover of my computer.
As it stands, the monitor appears to be on 100% of the time, even if the screen saver is on. I've woken up in the morning to feel the top of the laptop and it's still warm because the display has been on all night.
Does anyone know how I can get this thing to shut off the monitor (but leave the computer running) when I close the cover when there are literally NO choices as my disposal in the display properties?

One of the things I can't figure out how to do is to create a folder in the root of a Team Foundation Server in the Team Explorer in VS 2005. I work for many clients, and each client has several projects. I should be able to create folders in the root of the team server (i.e. "Client 1", "Client 2", etc.) and THEN be able to create my Team Projects within those folders.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Kudos must go out to someone who commented on my last blog entry about my new ThinkPad T43P - "ozczecho". Once I reformatted and did a fresh install it was like night and day, and my ThinkPad now sprints instead of jogs. It really forces me to stop and wonder if manufacturers are aware of the degredation in performance that their 3rd party software packages are often responsible for.
I will say this, though - I'm still frustrated that IBM can't simply step up and supply a real keyboard. The misplaced CTRL key and the missing Windows key is STILL getting to me and it seems like such a silly and insignificant couple of failures to keep polluting your new machines with.
