I am super excited about this. My current plan is to retire early and build a Tiny house. THen just drag it across the US, where ever I want to live. This kind of technology would be perfect for it. Just counting down the years at this point.

@thecreativeone91 I have fallen close to this grey area in the past. I just don't understand why working on a computer should make a difference from a federal labor law standpoint.

Computer Employee overtime exemption.

I always thought this little exemption was complete garbage. Does any other country do this?

I went backpacking in Montana last year. We were 5 Miles from signal and about 1.5 miles from the car on foot for 5 days straight. The first day I was anxious about it, and then it got amazing. This was amplified for me because I was not only with out Internet, but also no electric, plumbing, running water, a bed, or solid shelter in Grizzly bear habitat. However it was life changing. I didn’t realize how much I was plugged in and how high my resting stress level was in dealing with email and people wanting information from me. Once you get over the point of no return, and you know it is just a fact that you are offline, it is nice and the pace and time of life kind of reset back to a normal. For me coming back online was the most upsetting because you are playing catchup. So you go from nothing to 3 times normal comunication for a couple days.

Figured it out!

528 for successful log-on, type 10 is Remote Interactive

This is Server 2008. http://windowsitpro.com/systems-management/q-how-can-i-find-windows-server-2008-event-ids-correspond-windows-server-2003-eve

Not Seeing how to filter on Type.

@Dashrender I get that. The problem is when I look at the raw Security Events there are too many to filter though because every single security check on the server makes a logon event, not just a terminal Login. In Windows 7, there is the nice logon event in System Event. I don't see anything that nice and pretty in Server 2008, that is why I am asking for a better way to do it.

You can apply a filter in event viewer

What can I filter on to only show terminal logons?

@Dashrender Right, on Windows 7 there is a System Event, and a Security Event. Windows Server 2008 does not have the same System event that I can see.

@Dashrender Either way, remotely would be nice.

I see the events, but there are a ton. Every security check is logged for the entire system. I am looking for User logged in at a terminal or RDP Date/Time and done. Just looking at security logs has multiple logs per minute for every security check happening on an active server.

I have security audtiting turned on in group policy. I would just like an easy way with out signing up with a company to download their software to view historical data of when Domain Users logged on to a desktop on a Server 2008 system. I have a powershell script that works great on Windows 7 boxes that grabs system event 7001 for user logon, but when i run it against a server it comes up empty. Does anyone have any tools for something like this?

@tonyshowoff I agree I think we are on the same side of the table. I would say we should sit down have a beer and a good old discussion about this where we both listen to each other, talk about it, and learn from each other. However, this is the internet so I will ignore your points and go on some huge off topic rant. (jk)

If you are ever in the middle of the US, I'd love to buy you that beer and we can discuss further.

@tonyshowoff I could get into the whole part of meat production causing more greenhouse gas than all the cars on eath combined, how out current rate of meat intake per capita is up 3 fold in the last 100 years in the US. It is completely unsistainable and will cause us either slow down or stop meat production, or bulldose what is left of all of the worlds rainforest in favor of farm land, but I won't. for me the idea of more veggies less meat made me feel better, healthier, and I felt like I was doing my little tiny part to cut back on my carbon footprint that I leave it the world. I also, grow my own veggies, live in less than a 1,300 sqft with plans on downsizing, and mow with a reel mower.

I'm a darn hippie, but it makes me happy knowing that I am making a gnats fart of a difference in the world.

I will add on to change of lifestyle. You can't keep living the life that made you unhealthy, but just change 1-2 things for a year or so, and expect a change no matter what surgery or diet you do. I went to the extreme, then landed somewhere in the middle. I did fat free, whole food, vegan for a year. At the same time I was going to the gym 5 days a week, stoped driving in exchange for my bicycle 60%+ of the time. Doing so I lost over 80lbs in a year and felt amazing. Now I have landed somewhere in the middle, brought some meat and dairy back in to my diet and with a newborn, biking everywhere isn't as easy of an option. I have put 10-15 lbs back on, but I still feel great and held that for 3 years.

That all being said, it is about how you live. There isn't a surgery to change that. If you have the will power, cut back to 1,500 calories a day, drop soda and alcohol, get active and start choosing a bicycle or feet over a car when possible and hit the gym 4-5 days a week, unless you have a serious medical condition you will loose weight and feel a thousand times better. It isn't easy or fun (at first), but nothing great in life is easy. Good luck with what ever you decide on!

I can't really complain. I went to the local state university. It wasn't great, it won't get me a job in Dallas or LA, but I'm ok with that. I graduated with less than $15k in debt, Got a decent job, and I am able to pay for a house, a car or two, and a family. I wouldn't have been able to get where I am with out it. I could have gone to a much better school, and moved around the country, but it just wasn't in the cards for me at the time. It may be in the future, but I will have enough built up experience by then so I'm not as worried about it.

My only regret was spending three semesters at the for profit DeVry. It was easily 60% of my education cost, and I didn't get my moneys worth at all.

For me, Small town, small school, big fish in a tiny pond is where I want to be for now. I can live vicariously through Scott Miller's travels.

Not sure if this is at all related but we had a similar issue while using Braodvox for SIP trunks. I was unable to ever pin point the cause of the issue because it was always a conversation with 1 person who said it happened 1 time 3 weeks ago, but they were just telling me now, situation.

Even Google admits, they don't make enough, or market these for the general public. Something like 80% of the ones they build stay internal to Google. That all being said, I would LOVE to have one. They are not trying to compete with Apple laptops, so you can't really compare them.
