Goodness gratious....

I was sitting here working away on the finishing pieces of AdFind
V01.39.00...

specifically testing and cleaning up the output for decoding of dsheuristics
(yeah still isn't very pretty)...

>dSHeuristics: DISALLOW_SPECIFY_GUID_ON_ADD (DEFAULT)
>dSHeuristics: STANDARDIZE_SECURITY_DESCRIPTORS (DEFAULT)
>dSHeuristics: ADAM_INSECURE_CONNECTION_ALLOWED_FOR_PWD_OPS


...when out on my porch there arose such a clatter (sounded like a
refrigerator being dropped) and my doorbell rang so I sprang from my LovSac
Rocker to see what was the matter... Away to my door I flew like a flash,
tore open the door to see a big ol UPS box. I lifted the box and strained my
entire back thinking the whole time... holy crap.

I tore open the box, hoping to see a mess of new BluRay discs but alas I was
to be surprised by one lonely book. Active Directory Cookbook 3rd Edition. I
was in absolute shock at how big and fat this book is... Until I recalled
Laura added a few PowerShell examples... Explains it all...

Laura, if you intend to carry these around to give out, please get a gym
membership and strengthen up first... I don't want to see you injuring
yourself too much. I am going to go look for a Oak desk for my office, my
Ikea glass desk is not going to be able to support the weight of this OED
competitor and this is usually a book I have somewhere on my desk if only to
swat at flies....Now of course I could use it to kill the wild turkeys that
trot through my back yard if only I can figure out how to get it up the
stairs and huck it at them. ;)

Congratulations!

joe

Yes yes, very nice. :)

Needed to do that to save on ink so you could print the PowerShell
examples...

Dude, you crack me up.

(And I want you to take notice of the fact that your name is capitalized
===CORRECTLY=== throughout the book, including on the back cover. I had to
fight the editors off with a whip and a chair to keep them from capitalizing
all of those j's. :-))

So this is a bonus not only do I get an outstanding AD book but I also get
to work on the New Year's Resolution about working out more J

The cookbook is one of the books that I like to have at home and at work so
I have ordered two copies anyway. I hate leaving it at one location and
not having it to reference. It is definitely one of my goto AD books.

Thanks for writing the book Laura!! Writing the 3rd edition AD cookbook or
the AD 4th edition like Brian and Joe just did seems like an overwhelming
task. I'm really thankful that you all take the time to do it. It really
helps us all.



Thanks

Mike

I received my copy of the cookbook today (I've been traveling since
Christmas). I like how it turned out.



If it ever gets another chapter, it might need splitting into two volumes. J

I was the primary reviewer for both books. Brian and Laura did the heavy
lifting. Though I did, to be honest, spend an inordinant amount of time on
the original PowerShell chapters written for AD4E that definitely went above
and beyond the normal reviewer time frame. I don't believe I have seen the
final result that went into the book yet.
