I got a question from a customer last week: Hi Steve, I just bought your program on Friday and I love it. I have one question though: Is there any way to use IntelliAdmin Network Administrator to set not only the VNC password but also the VNC view only password? We are using TightVNC 1.3 […]

I came across an interesting utility called UNetbootin. It allows you to create bootable USB drives for many flavors of linux – but the part that interested me was the additional utilities you could write to a flash drive: Parted Magic – a partition manager that can resize, repair, backup, and restore partitions.

While researching for an earlier article, I came across a free utility from http://www.joeware.net It is called OldComp, and you can find it here It runs through active directory and finds old accounts. It is simple to use, and powerful, so careful what you do…because you could delete all your accounts if you are not […]
