| | Windows Server 2008 R2 Disables DCOM modifications | | | Thanks Bob. This saved me a ton of time. I was very surprised when a two minute taks became 30 mintues (and a server reboot) for me.
I wish MS could just fix the root cause of the DCOM error (add the WSS_WPG group the DCOM object) and then we would not have to worry about this at all.

| | SharePoint 2010 Developer Dashboard | Bob Fox | | This is a nice add in... its going to be usefull once we get into the later stages of the build moving towards RTM next year. Right now its just a pretty interface and not alot of folks are really looking at the overall performance aspects yet. That will come in time.
As mentioned in post something you can use RIGHT NOW is the IDERA product that was originally built by Eric Shupps at BinaryWave. Its simply hands down a fantastic product and its SharePoint 2010 ready.. so you wouldnt need another upgrade or purchase to start using this on your new 2010 pages. | 10/29/2009 | | Approved |

ALso allowed me to remove some content from a announcment (shortening) and that also worked as expected. AFAIK this was new to SP2. Dont remember this being part of any previous updates. I could have missed that but looking at the new documentation and talking to some peeps inside this is pretty much new.

Have you thought about taking it one step further and adding an ISA06 Server to the mix? And maybe an external moss server where you could test content publishing, security, and other goodies. You could even theoretically set up a farm in a box, the possibilities are endless

| | Couple of Cool New Offerings from our friends at MSFT | Bob Fox | | Ah, Bob. All is not gold that glitters. Take the "Community Clips" part of this page for instance. There's already an Office RSS feed (and thus presumably a web page) which includes information on all the "Visual How To:" video items (and the equivalent articles). This is therefore nothing new under the sun but simply yet another example of Microsoft providing the same information in so many places you need to take your socks off to count them all. (Oh, and if that wasn't enough I have links to all the Visual How To: articles and video clips I know about on the WSS FAQ sites too.
