If you’re stuck at level 5 in Warhamer 40k: Space Marines, don’t forget to redeem the unlock code found on the inside manual that came inside the game’s case.
Here’s how to do it:

It looks like the venerable DumpsterAlwaysOn registry hack for Outlook is no longer needed in newer versions!
Simply customize the cleanup toolbar for any folder which doesn’t already have the “Recover Deleted Items” option, and make a new group with that command in it.

The following powershell functions can be loaded and then called like this “UploadToLibrary $filename $siteURL $listname”
This script was hacked out of the “FCI SharePoint Upload Powershell script” available on TechNet. I removed the portions responsible for modifying source files, migrating file properties, etc so I could use these functions to easily upload files from PowerShell.
Enjoy!

While attempting to import a PST you may receive the error: You don’t have appropriate permission to perform this operation
The most common cause of this is profile specific. Try creating a new mail profile using these instructions from Microsoft, and import it to the new profile instead.

Otherwise, check to see if Group Policy is disabling PST usage.

The following is simply my perception of reality based on forum posts, articles, and conversations throughout the internet.
It seems that ZFS itself may be a great filesystem. The issue itself is FreeNAS implementation of ZFS administration – in particular, the Web UI. From what I’ve read there are some real and serious dangers of the web interface not actually performing the operations it should be performing, and causing data loss.

Simply enter regedit, browse to HKLM\Software\Trend Micro\PC-cillinNTCorp\Misc.
Change the key “allow uninstall” to be 1, and you will no longer be prompted for a password.
I performed this with trend micro unloaded. In order to do this, you may need to set the unload password to 70 in ofcscan.ini in the Program Files directory for Trend Micro and enter 1 as the password when prompted during unload. Unload may not be required, however, so try without first.

This issue actually presented itself in a unique way. A user was complaining of issues with her NK2 file (the file that saves the addresses of intended recipients of email drafted in Outlook). Reviewing the file, I could see that it hadn’t been changed since about 5 months previously, which is when Lync had been installed. Whenever Outlook would be closed, it would remain running in the background and not close properly, preventing any new writes to the NK2 file.

I received the error: “the local security authority cannot be contacted” when trying to RDP into a 2008 server in another domain.
Upon entering the console (in VMWare in this case) I was able to login locally, but was prompted for a password change.
So – in short, the issue could be that your password has expired in whatever security authority the server is using to authenticate. This is obviously more of an issue with NLA type RDP sessions.
