Celebrating our anniversary with dinner from Pizza Hut and an early bed time so that I can drive down @coliver's way tomorrow to work at a client site.

Be careful on the drive down it is supposed to be rainy the entire way.

I ran into this trying to escape a file location in Windows using an Apache Tomcat web server.... there were like 5 backslashes before you got the file location.

Once saw a post on SW about someone naming their server and several folders Backslash so their folder path was "\Backslash\Backslash\backslash" or something similar...try explaining that one to someone over the phone..

That's almost as bad as /root which is called root root.

Installing MS SQL Server.

Trying to fix a client's problem of Server '08R2 not shutting down properly....Once I actually get access to the server, that is.

Reid Cooper

I have always found that the plug works reliably

Dave.Creamer

@Reid-Cooper True...but the rest of the VM environment may not take kindly to that approach. heh

Reid Cooper

VM, even easier, virtual power off from the console.

Fighting with turning Autocad 2015 into a Remote App... The 90's called and want their hard coded paths in the registry back... Ugh.

Dave.Creamer

@Reid-Cooper True...but not catching the root cause. And with this particular client...there's a lack of communication between their teams. But, need access to the server first. Tons of fun.

That was quite some time ago! And yes, one way. It was normally three hours round trip.
