Microsoft Windows Server recommends that you Validate Preseeded Files for DFS Replication during setup of Distributed File System (DFS) Replication. But when you validate file hashes on either your source or destination server you may get the following error:
Get-DfsrFileHash : Could not calculate the file hash. Error code 0x00000005
There isn't much information on error 0x00000005, however there is a simple fix I've found.
If you’re running Citrix XenApp 6.0, or even 6.5, you should already know the importance of August 24, 2016. But if you don’t yet, this is the end of life (EOL) date for XenApp 6.0 (and for XenApp 6.5 for customers of who don't have Subscription Advantage), meaning security related Hotfixes, technical support and product downloads will no longer be available.
Like many organizations, you may want to enforce a Default Retention Policy for your users to comply with company policy, government regulations or legal needs.

One of our clients recently migrated their email from Microsoft Exchange to Microsoft Office 365 and after the fact realized they hadn't migrated their employee retention policy settings. We were unsure of which users had a one year retention policy or two year retention policy.

Windows 10 is here. Many of our clients have been asking us about this new release and if they should adopt the new operating system from Microsoft. Here's what I think about it and what we're recommending...
I sat down with one of Lewan's Solution Architects, Kenneth Fingerlos, to discuss his upcoming speaking engagement at the BriForum conference on July 20th. Our brief conversation covered the details of his session, "vSGA, vDGA, vGPU, and Software - When and Why", his background in the industry, and what gets him excited in the technology space right now.
The Windows default printer is a magical thing. This is the printer that is selected by default when you print in an application. Depending on your particular printing workflow this may be the only printer you ever use. Some applications have a quick print functionality that sends a print job to the default printer using default settings and no prompts (for example, portrait orientation and a single copy).

IT conferences are a great way to catch up on what is new, take classes, and network with peers in the industry. I have been lucky enough to attend great shows like Citrix Summit and Synergy as well as VMware VMworld over the years. The conference for me that always fell just out of reach was BriForum.

BriForum is an independent conference that provides vendor-neutral perspective on current and emerging technologies and services.
