how to process outlook rules on Lync IM missed conversations

Outlook (at least the 2007 version) will not process rules which might run against Lync IM "missed converation" messages for some reason - probably because it doesn't see them as "incoming" messages and rather "stored" messages.  If you manually run the outlook rule it will process those messages.

So a round-about way of having outlook process rules on those types of messages is to run these rule via a VBS script run by the a scheduled task in windows.  The VBS script you're looking for is here:

for constant, UNREAD_MSGS_ONLY see below
'Name Value Description
'olRuleExecuteAllMessages 0 Executes a rule against all messages in the specified folder or folders.
'olRuleExecuteReadMessages 1 Executes a rule against messages that have been read in the specified folder or folders.
'olRuleExecuteUnreadMessages 2 Executes a rule against messages that have not been read in the specified folder or folders.

view / display / see wireless connections

If you want to remove a wireless access point / connection in windows
8 and you are out of range of it; or you just want to view a list of
the wireless APs you've connected to, you're out of luck if you want a
built-in gui.

There are other options like the netsh wlan command. Here's a good listing:

loop android boot sound

in the desc.txt file  if there's a sound listed as indicated by "s filename.ogg"  you can make that sound loop by editing / adding the metadata tags for the ogg file (in audacity or another tag editor). 

the tag name to be added is: "ANDROID_LOOP"  it's value should be "true".

For example: In audacity under file, "open metadataeditor editor", then add the tag above.

There are some other tags I've seen used in ogg files, but none of them made any difference: LOOPSTART  LOOPLENGTH 

source for the ANDROID_LOOP tag:  http://www.tytyweb.net/blog/2012/01/looping-ringtones-on-android/

window 8, juniper ssl vpn, rdp connection issues

connection drops every 30 seconds or so with Juniper SSL VPN RDP terminal services client.  Using the full VPN and the native windows 8 remote desktop client, I had no problems.

The problem ended up being a HP wireless printer/scanner issue.  I remove the printer from windows 8 and don't have any problems any longer.  I also did not have any issues when the printer was turned on.  It seems that the driver does a broadcast every 30 seconds that interrupts the Juniper rdp client.  Maybe stopping the spooler would have fixed it?

See this thread:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w8itpronetworking/thread/9fd4d6d5-1adc-494d-a916-0032f3e08789

I also turned off UDP transmission for RDP, but I don't think that was my issue at all:

upgrade Solutions Enabler - getting symcfg discover error message

if you get this message after upgrading solutions enabler and trying to refresh the database via symcfg discover, then do the following:

# /usr/symcli/bin/symcfg discover
The SYMAPI database file cannot be used because it was written by a version of SYMAPI that is no longer supported

then do this:
#  > /var/symapi/db/symapi_db.bin

That's the same as doing: cat /dev/null > /var/symapi/db/symapi_db.bin

Now you can do the symcfg discover without errors.

long hostname - kernel tuneable.

Long hostname - longer than 8 characters:

If a server is not properly configured for long host names, the kernel tunable  expanded_node_host_names  needs to be set to1 and the server may need to be rebooted (even though the kernel tunable parameter is dynamic).

I believe this only works if you have certain patches installed or at 11.31 or something, not sure.

c7000 enclosure health degraded

if you see this in the OA system log: Kernel: Communication to an I2C device was lost temporarily, retrying...

 

but then you only see the enclosure health was "degraded" but nothing pointing to anything specific.

then you probably have a bad interconnect.  Try transitioning from Active to Standby OAs and the bad interconnect might show itself.
