For those of you who wrote the MCTS 71-640, 642 or 643, the results are now posted on Prometric’s site when you look in Candidate history. Much to my pleasant surprise, I passed the two exam I attempted. I wrote 640 and 642, and honestly didn’t think I had done overly well on either. I had thought I might have passed the network infrastructure okay but not the AD. However, it appears I have passed both, which is always a nice surprise.
Nifty Shortcut for UAC on Windows Vista
Trying to ipconfig /release and /renew on Windows Vista is a bit of a pain in the hind when you want to do it from Command Prompt. You need to find the command prompt, right click and run as admin, accept UAC. Brad Bird mentioned in our Vista Enterprise class on Monday and was also in the Vista training kit that if you hold ctrl and shift when you press enter, it will run the command elevated, press Alt-C to continue and its up and going. For example, type CMD in the run box, press ctrl-shift and enter; press Alt-C to accept UAC and now you can release and renew away and its as just about as easy as it was under XP.
Changes to RDP to Console on Windows Vista SP1
I guess Microsoft has made changes to the way you connect to the console on Windows Vista SP1. The old way was to type mstsc /console and the new way is to type mstsc /admin. Subtle change, but enough to cause a pain in the hind end.
