Hey there. The Finn is back after a long time, this time with a Domain Search Suffix Order issue. I ran into this issue at my new place of work where we have multiple platforms like Windows 10, MacOs and even Linux together with multiple domain names. Traditionally you would just use a group policy […]
Hey there. Toni here back with some thoughts on domain controllers and their local SAM database. You know, the thing that is disabled as soon as the server is promoted to a domain controller. This is something that is often forgotten about until it’s too late. This database is actually critical if something bad happens […]
Hey folks, long time no see. How are you doing? In Episode 80 of Kneedeepintech I briefly mentioned Windows Server and gaming in the same sentence. Now that I have had time to actually test it again I’d thought I would post my findings here. I have the Xbox 360 wired controllers that I’ve used […]
Hey. Today I want to talk about an interesting case that involves Kerberos, Always On VPN and access to CIFS. A customer has recently deployed Always on VPN in their infrastructure.

Hey, the Finn here again with another random post. A client reached out to me since they are in the process of switching print servers. They have a lot of printers, to say the least. They are all managed manually and they felt that they would like avoid the hassle of creating all the print […]
Hey, Toni here again. Some customers are still stuck on using Azure classic for their deployment. Microsoft has done a lot of work for many years to convince everyone to move over to Azure Resource Manager (ARM) model and with good success as well. Did you know that they offer good tools (well scripts actually) […]
Hey there. The Finn here with another little quick update. This time on Windows Admin Center and certificates. You are using Windows Admin Center, right? It’s good stuff. You like good stuff, right? Self-signed is the default option, but man is that an ugly way to go. Here is how you update your Windows Admin […]
Hi, my name is Toni aka “The Finn” from some guest appearances on the show. I was invited to write some stuff here so here goes. I have recently been doing some Azure work and want to share some of that with you. Building your applications and infrastructure in multiple Azure networks or even regions […]
