So a bunch of my users just move their computers themselves around with them when they move to new offices. The reasoning behind this is e-mail syncing problems. I've noticed that there is a reasonably big (maybe 30 mins - 1 hr) interval for Active Directory to Sync with our Hosted Exchange. Is this commonplace? Seems crazy to me.
Why do they move them around themselves and, even if they do, how does that cause issues?

I'm actually thinking of starting a IT Tech work out program.
Motivation to get away from tech is such a huge hurdle for me, constantly wanting to tinker / play, when I really should go and push some weight or jog etc.
Anyone in the Rochester region interested?
In exercise? Eww...
I agree... I'm in perfect shape... Round.

Chuck Lorre is creating a new Netflix Sitcom about a Marijuana distributor in LA... I really hope it isn't as brain dead as his last two.

Upgrading my main PC to Win10...I took an image of the SSD this morning just in case, but several businesses I've worked with have moved onto it and I'm falling behind on basic stuff because of how it's all moved etc...we'll see what happens...

in the last few weeks we've had a run of repairs.
- New Washer/dryer
- Truck repair
- Roof repair (now)
I can hear the hammers swinging.

I've got a repair guy heading out to my house in Peekskill today, I think. Lots of repair work to be done. Ugh.

What do you mean sync?
Our hosted exchange requires us to install ADSync on our primary domain to sync with the remote exchange server.

Are you using Office365?

No we are using some vendor. msoutlookonline.net

That's not recommended. Even on Office 365 (the only hosted Exchange anyone should consider.)

Yep, plan on moving to Office365. Then you can tackle Azure Directory sync.

It's been a bit let's make sure that I have the terminology correct. There are two methods of tying local domain to Azure. One is a one way sync that is highly decoupled (changes are sent asynchronously up to Azure) the other is a bidirectional coupling where all changes are mirrored in both places. One is okay, one is sometimes acceptable. Which one is this?

Disturbingly ginormous

Both are called Azure Directory Sync now correct? We use it to do a one-way sync every 30 minutes.

That's going to get super confusing.

Roof was done in about 30-45 minutes.. which is good since a strong storm cell just ran through ... about 40mph winds and some rain. yet most of the rain was a mile south of us. dang in.
