Spoke to some builders today, well, it was the same builders as yesterday. They've extended the Cat5 runs where there used to be a wall that they had to knock through. Went round with my trusty cable tester - found two points that didn't work so I told them to fix it. Which they did.
Worked on the Server 2008 test machine today. I've managed to get an XP laptop joined to my test domain, mounting a home folder, and logging in. Will need to test Macs next.
Carried on with my purge o'trash from the server room. It makes sense to chuck things now rather than wait until we have to move out of that block during refurbishment, having to move it all.
Went through my home folder to consolidate my video editing work to free up space. Got rid of a lot of temp work files from last year's EAL projects.
Set up ChemSketch on our Citrix servers and published the application for network use. Should make the chemistry dept very happy.
The Other Tech worked on the other site today sorting out bits'n'pieces.
Spoke to the Business Manager about the new extension that's nearly finished (!) - asked what is happening about the IT infrastructure in that block. He told me that The Big Boss and the Last Guy were in all the meetings with the architects etc, and that they have decided everything that needs to go in and that it's all under control. This is good, as The Big Boss was saying how I have to meet with the architects and discuss things....I'm slightly confused, but we'll see what happens.
