Reset

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I didn’t realize how much of my time would be spent this week resetting passwords. Not network passwords, passwords to the Postini email quarantines. Seems that our service was upgraded, and moved to another server. Naturally the new server didn’t recognize the cookies that were set by the old server so all those folks who had checked the “remember my password” box had to login again. I didn’t realize how many people had done that, and now have no idea what their password is.

    I spent part of Saturday morning taking some of our old equipment to the local county solid waste authority’s computer recycling drive. They do a couple of these a year, and it’s a good way to get rid of monitors, printers and other hardware that simply doesn’t work any more or doesn’t serve a purpose…

    Yesterday I was out, took a vacation day rather than dealing with the snow. Today I’m being buried in a different way, under MyDoom emails coming into our accounts. Someone that we deal with quite a lot has gotten bit by this thing big time! I guess it’s time to figure out who. Follow these…
