10:00 - There are two things I need to say right up front.�

1. I caught a cold yesterday and I'm miserable today.

2. When Becky asked me about the "cannot resolve DN" yesterday, the _first_ thing I asked was "did anyone check the LDAP account?" and she told me they didn't use LDAP.� I asked "Are you _sure_?� I think DN is short for Distinguised Name, that's LDAP.� This is a WAS server.� I'm pretty sure this means Distinguished Name and not Domain Name."

-- It was an LDAP issue.� One thing that really tweaks me is spinning cycles on bad information.� People who make me run around in circles because they give me bad info should have to do my laundry or something.� They should be flogged with wet noodles and have to swim 3 laps in earthworm soup.� That is all.�

-- Chez and I had a good time at the Mercury game last night.� She said she'll be my wingman when we go out.� lol.� For some reason that really cracks me up.� I can tell that she's a good hearted person.� I think she's got a restless soul, I really hope Kellie turns out to be good for her.

-- The box seats were really neat, but we snuck down to the floor and sat in about the 17th row to watch the second half.� I'm not much of a sports fan at all, but I'll have to admit it was fun to watch and just be around lots of enthusiastic people.� The game was good, clean, family entertainment.� Even if the prices were unreal.

    CORALINE's Interests:

    About Me: Little Plastic Castle is an extension of This Child's Life which is not hosted at inboxjournal. This blog will make little sense to anyone other than myself. It's a stream of consciousness log of what I do on a daily basis in my job as a UNIX computer systems engineer. o/~ "They say goldfish have no memory, I guess their lives are much like mine...so the little plastic castle is a surprise every time, and its hard to say if they're happy, but they don't seem much to mind." o/~ I endeavor to respect confidentiality and thus I use nicknames for the people I work with. (Mr. T, Ratface, Jerry, Cartman, Grandpa Simpson, Slick, and so on.) I drop system names in here and abbreviations, but any note that requires something like a FQDN will always be marked private. You can comment if you like, but I'll only respond if I feel like it.

    Interests: Cast of Characters: Just a few of the names I use for people, this is the nickname and what their job responsibility is. Mr. T - My Direct Manager (Engineering) Slick - ESX Specialist Cartman - Network Engineering Lead Grandpa Simpson - Network Engineer Becky - WebSphere Engineer Ratface - Developer/Architect Jerry - Project Manager (BTI) Matt T. - Project Manager (Blackbird) The Martian - Application Developer AVP Ice Queen - Engineering AVP Chez - Assistant to Ice Queen Watts - Engineering/Development Sr. Mgr.
