		<title>OpsMgr 2007 &#8211; Author Privileges</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you run into setting up permissions/privileges for your administrators within the scom console. This can be quite confusion. You often run into cryptic areas where certain functions don&#8217;t react as they should and you run into the error &#8220;The user domain\user does not have sufficient permission to perform the operation&#8221;.
Some important information here:

		<title>Remotely reboot a server</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Always a good tidbit of information to keep around:
To perform a remote shutdown:
1. Open Computer Management (Local)
2. In the console tree, right-click Computer Management (Local), and then click Connect to another computer.
3. In the Select Computer dialog box, click Another computer, type the name of the computer that you want to restart or shut down, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Greyed out Domain Controllers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent a while searching around for this gem. Basically the domain controllers don&#8217;t trust the local system account so you have to run the HSLockdown.exe tool. I found this blog article that explains:

		<title>NetApp DS4243 Disk Shelves</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Finally SAS disk shelves from NetApp. Also in a 24 drive configuration.
Update: Looks like these will ship with new systems only starting December (and by new systems, it seems maybe only the FAS-3170s). General availability will come a few months later.

		<title>Mint.com</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have got to say, mint.com is one of the best tools i&#8217;ve used in a long time. I used quicken online for a little while and then found if I stopped visiting the site that it would stop pulling transactions. The mint.com site continues to grab them even if I&#8217;ve been idle for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>NetApp VFM Email Alerts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent a few hours doddling around with how to do email alerting with the provided VFM scripts. I finally ended up rewriting things just a little, but below is the basics of how to configure VFM to use email alerting.
A quick note, this most likely applies for the Brocade StorageX product as NetApp rebrands [...]]]></description>

		<title>Script: Check for Orphaned HomeDirs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems no matter how much you try you cannot ever get those damned orphaned homedirs cleaned up. Well, this helps. Our org always has additional groups in the homedir (no, we don&#8217;t just let the users have whatever they want in there, so we have to monitor). This causes a little confusion amongst most [...]]]></description>
