ULS Logging location

I've been working the last few days to fix permissions for the ULS logging location in SharePoint. When this gets moved don't forget to add modify permissions for the account that runs the service "Windows SharePoint Services Tracing". Depending on how the permissions are configured on a new volume for logging, the default rights for a new account will be read/write without modify on the folder.

The ULS log files begin showing errors where it cannot delete each log file at the beginning instance of a new log file. The number of log files continues to grow until it fills the volume.

Fun going in after people to figure out why things are happening. This is very bad if the pemissions get changed/hardened in the default location "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS".

LANManager part Duex

What goes around comes around... Seems there's lots of people setting this back...

So to add to fgdump/pwdump, Cain&Able, etc. I found some nice tools from Security Friday that are not generally easy to find on other boards.

Theres several nice tools and articles here, so poke around a little. Take note for the article on "Hazard of 'My Network Places; on Windows XP". With a little imagination and virtualization you can create you own LM Honey pot to put on networks and grab hashes as users around you use "My Network Places"

Playground

After several long Saturdays and many hours by many people, we've completed the new playground at the church! The kids are loving it. We learned a lot about how these are put together and a few tricks of the trade that made it easier. The hardest part was realizing that things don't square up until its done.... then you can cement it in. Its so tempting to secure it earlier. Also that's a lot more mulch than it looks. 60+ cubic yards we delivered. Thats about 56-58, the rest will be distributed as it packs down. (just need it out of the parking lot before Cchristmas service where we'll need the two spots its taking up.

Guess we'll never get the kids to leave now!

The Tile is out

Finished tearing out over 1200 pounds of tile & rubble from the shower, here's what's left.

Next now its time to start rebuilding.  Should start tearing out the remaining plywood on the floor next to access the wiring and plumbing.  Then add shutoff values to the water supply and rewire to raise the roof.

Stay tuned

Finding my legs

After transitioning from walk/runs to running and starting to workout with a water polo team on a weekly basis, I think I'm finding my legs. They definitely don't get me to where my mind is thinking or as fast, but they are there.

Wednesday night was my weekly trek to Charlotte for Water Polo (and work). I stayed in the goal most of the time and actually got my hand on most of the balls - I didn't stop very many, but I touched most.

Running is also getting to be easier. I'm going between 2 & 3.7 miles at a time and its fairly comfortable - slow, but comfortable. I look at my pace occasionally, but I'm working on stretching out to run longer and not worry about pace. I'll be building up to 45 minutes of running this weekend.

I keep eyeing different running events, but have been busy with other activities on the weekends. There's an upcoming 5K in Greensboro on Thanksgiving day - maybe I'll have to work that in before firing up the grill.
