All Set-up!

Well I’ve setup my awesome new 24in monitors and already watched a couple of BluRay movies to bask in the awesomeness that is 1080p. I got my self two BenQ G2420HDBL 24″. I have to say the quality it pretty good. These were very much a self birthday present if you like but I’d been after some new monitors since starting placement. The BenQ comes highly recommended and the quality and price is pretty neat, its got over 40 reviews on OCUK.

Anyway, another picture…

New Monitors

I woke up late today for work. I’m quite glad I did, as I walked to the door I heard a loud knock. It was DPD with my overclockers order… Two new 24in monitors…

TVSorter

Andrew has released after much development a useful application called TVSorter over on Google Code. TVSorter is a little application for renaming and sorting TV Shows. You can give it a folder and it’ll work its way though it moving the episodes into a nice folder tree. It also grabs episode names from TheTVDB and includes them when renaming.

I’ve been using it for quite a while now although its taken different forms but its extremely useful for renaming TV Shows in to the correct format. It allows you to easily manage the naming structure of your TV folder which helps applications like XBMC see episodes properly which gives it a higher rate of finding episode information.

Error On Migrating A Mailbox To Exchange 2010

After installing Microsoft Exchange 2010 I wanted to move my mailbox from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010. Using the wizard in Exchange Console I got this error

Error:
Active Directory operation failed on *DomainController*. This error is not retriable. Additional information: Insufficient access rights to perform the operation.
Active directory response: 00002098: SecErr: DSID-03150E8A, problem 4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0

The user has insufficient access rights.

Exchange Management Shell command attempted:
’*OUStructure*’ | New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase ‘Mailbox Database nnnnnnnnnn′ -BadItemLimit ‘0′

  • I found that this error can be fixed by editing the Advanced Security Settings for the user on the AD.
  • Open “Active Directory Users and Computers”
  • Click “View > Advanced Features”
  • Select the users mailbox properties
  • Navigate to “Security Tab > Adanced”
  • Select the checkbox “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent”
  • Apply changes

Afterwards the move should go swimmingly, however you may need to remove your move request a try again.
