A Microsoft KB article claimed that if a specific DLL was at least a certain version that a bug reported by one of my users would be resolved. But the user was using their computer and I dislike interrupting people's work (I know how annoying it is when someone interrupts me). No problem; I can just grab the named DLL off their machine over the network and copy it to my home directory. But I'm not running Windows and all file tells me is that the DLL is a 32-bit PE file.

Yesterday I posted about how to identify the hottest table in a PostgreSQL database. Pretty much the same functionality is available for administrators of Informix databases as well; this kind of information is found in the sysmaster database which is the database engine's own database.

You are provisioning a Window 2008R2 server for remote desktop service; you've configured the terminal services license manager in one mode [ device | user ]. But when you receive the license documentation you discover that the CALs purchased were for the other mode. Then the Windows terminal license server manager tells you to change the mode of the license server.... but there is no obvious way to change the mode [because Windows is user-friendly!]. One option is to go old-school - hack the registry!.
