Spent time in active directory and with group policies - changed more stuff there to lock down the lab machines a bit better. Hopefully all this will mean a much more stable and efficient lab environment at Bethel next year. Got a meeting tomorrow morning about other stuff related to that - should be interesting. My sister's new laptop arrived today, so spent most of the evening with WinXP Pro. It was rather annoying to have so many critical updates right out of the box, and that IBM seemed to have not installed all the latest drivers but they were on the drive waiting to be installed, but oh well. NIS+ also died again tonight due to heat (that server room has been about 14-16 degrees over what the thermostat is set for lately - they're not sure why yet), but the boss is back as of today, so he took care of that. Moved the machine to another server room so it can stay a bit cooler until they figure out what's been going on with that one as well...
