Samsung Galaxy Note CM9 Alpha

A quick ScreenCast showing of CM 9 Alpha on the Galaxy Note [XDA Thread]
Ice Cream Sandwich runs GREAT, even with the pre-beta build that does not have ICS graphic blobs.  I changed the DPI to 160 to activate the tablet interface.  Too bad I can’t hang up that phone call 😉
Notice how smooth GTA3 runs (any stuttering is due to the screencast software and not the build).

SBS 2003 W3SVC1 log file grew to 50GB!

W3SVC1 log file located in C:inetpublogslogfiles grew to 50GB on a client SBS 2003 server.
Safe to delete manually.   Controlled by Start>Run>%SystemRoot%system32inetsrviis.msc

Scheduled task to keep it on but stop the log file from growing unrestricted found here on Microsoft Technet:
Start>Run>CMD

at 12:00 /EVERY:Su Forfiles.exe -p C:WINDOWSsystem32LogFilesW3SVC1 -m *.log -d -30 -c “Cmd.exe /C del @path”

Best I’ve found so far.

The Combine 2011

My office, Mallor | Grodner LLP, is a sponsor of the 2011 Combine.  As the systems administrator for a law firm  (several actually), I tend to look at everything on a tilt for the legal industry.
