Record and report all Presentation Server configuration changes. Track changes made to the Presentation Server farm, by whom and at what time to simplify and accelerate troubleshooting. Configuration Logging is invaluable for auditing and ensuring accountability when multiple administrators are maintaining Presentation Server.
A very nice how-to article provided at alsolorzano.com
The GPDBPA tool is a stand-alone program that an administrator can run
from a Windows Server 2003-based system or from a Windows XP-based
system. You can use the tool to do the following:
| • | Perform a proactive health check on the Group Policy environment to detect common configuration errors that frequently generate support incidents. |
| • | Collect diagnostic information and initial data from an environment, and then automate some analysis of that data. |
| • | Obtain a snapshot of the Group Policy configuration for archiving. This data may be a useful reference if a future problem occurs. |

For simple off-line blog editing, from either a Mac or Windows platform, I really like the simplicity and efficiency of the ScribeFire add-on for the FireFox browser. I’ve tried Microsoft’s Live Writer beta on Windows and Ecto on the Macintosh.

Meaningless technical tidbit, but if Computer Associates (CA) is good enough for Microsoft’s coders, why not the rest of us? Mark Russinovich in a recent blog posting.
Songs purchased on the iTunes Store can be copied to an unlimited number of computers. However, only five computers at a time can play your iTunes DRM-protected music*.
You can enable a computer to play your purchased music by authorizing it. You can remove a computer from the authorization list by deauthorizing it. Deauthorizing your computer does not erase your music files; it simply prevents your purchased music from playing until you authorize that computer again.
It turns out my encounter with this error was due to a “bad” install of .NET 2.0. I could not perform a security update of .NET 2.0. I ignored the security update error and proceeded to perform the Citrix PS 4.5 install. Near the end of the Citrix server component installation, the installer began uninstalling all of the PS 4.5 server software components. The Citrix error returned after the uninstall was 10001.
In my earlier blog post I described how I uninstalled and reinstalled .NET 2.0 (a requirement for PS 4.5). After I reinstalled and patched .NET 2.0 I was able to perform a satisfactory PS 4.5 server installation.
Windows 2003 Enterprise R2 SP2. When patching the server’s .NET 2.0 for security update – encountered an error message. Rebooted and attempted to patch once again – same error. Tried to uninstall .NET 2.0 from the Add/remove control panel applet. Could not uninstall – another error message.
Found this link (read Daniel’s reply) and then downloaded the utility from this link. The utility performed the “cleanup” after I selected .Net 2.0 from the pull down list. Other .NET versions listed in the utility were 1.1, 2.0. 3.0 and 3.5.
After the cleanup, reboot the server, launch Windowsupdate.microsoft.com and download and reinstall the .NET 2.0 framework. After the install, reboot. Don’t forget to obtain the .NET 2.0 security update after the reboot and then reboot once again for good measure.
