I was a pilot for 15 years. Starting over and figured genome splicing wasn't hard enough, so I went into IT. Lucky enough to get a chance working the help desk and now I'm a SysAdmin/Network admin for a small company.

I have no idea what I'm doing and loving every minute of it.

comment Netdom Join — What is wrong with this syntax?
Ah. I see. That is a typo on my part. I will edit the question. Thanks to your suggestion, though I resolved the issue. For the /UD: parameter I did not use the contoso\administrator format. I tried it with that and it went right through.

comment Netdom Join — What is wrong with this syntax?
I believe the abbreviations I used are valid syntax. link technet page. I also tried with the full parameter syntax, and multiple variations of entering the password and the domain\username. The help isn't. I am following the syntax as described in the link, AFAI can tell.

comment Cisco CM — forward single user call after hours
Hmmm. That sounds like it will solve the problem; thank you. Do you know if it is possible to do this through CM? Since I imagine if he forgets, it will be my fault.

comment Mount NFS from PowerShell on Windows 2012 and be visible elsewhere
Are you running it with elevated credentials? Are they different creds than the user for whom you are mapping the share?

comment Bit Torrent Sync and robocopy — Why would this recurse indefinitely?
Ok. That makes sense. Since the destination folder was within the root folder, it just kept looping back in on itself. It was a result of my improper path specifications. Thank you, kindly. Since you probably could use the reputation, if you make an answer out of this I will mark it...

comment Bit Torrent Sync and robocopy — Why would this recurse indefinitely?
Thank you. I guess I'm asking why the command caused the files to just keep replicating. My destination folder looks like this now: Btsync\bak\btsync\bak\btsync\bak\btsync\bak\btsync.....

comment Bit Torrent Sync and robocopy — Why would this recurse indefinitely?
Yes. I have a folder, whose contents, in their entirety, I wanted to copy over. There are subfolders within that folder. I was following the robocopy parameters: source destination file. Since what I am copying over is not a file I put in the name of the folder. I think this is what screwed me up and I should have used the '*' wildcard, allowing the /MIR option to recurse. Does that help?

comment GPO to disable server manager icon does not restrict access for users
That was it. I was testing the GPO results with the same user account and had already logged in. Much obliged.
