Day 2 – AD… No lunch, duties come first
Active Directory, AD, microsoft November 22nd, 2007On Tuesday the second day of the course, it jsut like usual. On the first day, I copied the 2 Microsoft Virtual PC hard disk into my notebook, the 2 VPCs are for Windows 2003 Server and Windows XP. Today I use my notebook to do all the tests and exercises. The PC is quite slow, the processor is Intel desktop 4k series I guess and the RAM is only 2GB… and I think the processor don’t support virtualization. That is just nice to run the 2 virtual PCs… but not nice enough. My 2 year old notebook can do it better and I just reinstalled a fresh VISTA after testing the VISTA for about 30 days.
About lunch time, my colleague, Darius, received a call from the office, there is problem with the accounting system… dammmmm… in fact I received a not very happy SMS about something else earlier… and now added with this problem… crappp… So during lunch time at 1pm, we did not go for lunch, instead we headed to our office. Darius and I tried to find the problem… we did found the reason of the problem… but it was not solved since we need to rely on the system developer, Noraini, to fix the bugs.
So, there was no lunch… on the way to the class about 2pm, I bought a can of Winter Melon drinks and 2 packets of roasted banana slice (not sure if that is the name… krepek pisang goreng). That was our lunch, and we ate that during the class… and as usual, we always share our food with the class.

I will always remember the day when my mind was already “pulang mode” at 4 something (that time pulang time is still 4.30pm), then suddenly got urgent call from DUN – they say everything rosak – the PC, the printer etc. So have to quickly get a driver and rush over there – it was in the middle of ADUN session – and went to the VIP room where all the things were placed – all the top guns were there. You know what was the problem? Not switched on!!! ^#@#*^*( But from the tone of their panicked voice on the phone earlier you’d never guess, and was expecting the worst.

only ‘us’ at the ground know and felt these… but yet we still the one received the ‘bullets’ at the end…
