[Wusa-microsoft] Kick off conversation

[Scott Ladewig]

I've managed Microsoft environments for ~12 years.  Before that I spent
three years at Exxon in engineering and IT roles, as well as two years
in the MBA/MIM program here at WU. While in grad school I worked for
Brian Sheffield over in CEC, and at VisionAire Corporation (where I was
IS Manager after graduating).  At VisionAire we were an NT and Exchange
shop, and I was there from 1995 until 1999.  Came to the Business School
in 1999 where I continue as Networking & Operations Manager.
 
At Olin, we have a single Windows 2003 domain. We have ~23 servers which
include Exchange 2003, SQL 2000, SMS 2003, MOM 2005, IIS, File/Print,
etc. Desktops are mostly Windows XP, with a couple faculty with Macs.

Hi everybody

 

I thought I would kick off this discussion by seeing who we have on the
list and what the School's existing Microsoft environment looks like.

 

I'm an MCSE in NT and 2000 with 8 years experience support Microsoft
domains and Exchange.  I started at General Electric where we had an NT
4 Multiple Master Domain model running Exchange 5.5.  From there, I went
to IBM which was mostly an OS/2, Lotus Notes environment.  For the past
five years or so, I have been working at the Veterans Health
Administration.  In that time, the VA has gone from an NT 4 domain model
running exchange 5.5 to a Windows 2003 Server AD Forest running Exchange
2003.  The VA included 300,000 users in nearly 300 sites, including 250
hospitals, dozens of individual IT departments dealing with sensitive
HIPAA and Veterans Benefit data.

 

Over here at NTS, We have four small Windows 2003 domains with a number
of file and print servers, some IIS servers and an Exchange Server.
