If you didn’t catch Patrick's post on SQL Saturday Wiki , I'd suggest you give it a quick read. The SQL Saturday Wiki will be an excellent tool to help first time and repeat organizers of SQL Saturday events. We really did pour as much as we could into a one day "Lock Down / Brain dump" event at "The GodFather's" lab of evil, but I think the real value of this Wiki will be when more and more event organizers put down their lessons learned into this tool. Not ever SQL Saturday is the same but the...
So the big, really-bad, cry-yourself to sleep, "you'll get automatically fired if you do this" thing happened at work this week. Here is a snippet of the back ground story... [on second thought.. I've removed the details of what happened, but from the opening sentence.. you can imagine] A few of the people that work for me were a bit confused as to why I didn’t auto-fire the person that made the mistake. I even surprised myself by how quickly I made the decision that I was not going to fire this...

Recently Paul Randal posted What three events brought you here ? He bascially ask "what three life-direction-changing-events" have brought you to where you are today? Which is a very interesting question that comes up from time to time at the 'After Event' for the Jacksonville SQL Server Users Group. I'm always interested in people's stories of how they became DBAs. While most of the stories I hear are of Accidental DBAism, the details of the story are never the same and are very intresting. Aft...
Configure Group Policy to keep RDP session to a minimum on your SSIS boxes Active Directory Group Polices overwrite local policies on a windows server. With that fact in mind, if you know that here are no AD policies for RDP Session time limits, and you have admin privileges to the local box, and you need to introduce some type of time restrictions on the RDP session; this might be exactly what you are looking for. Before we begin, I do need to bring up the old warning: Don’t implement this in p...
