Todd Klindt's SharePoint Admin Blog

Body: Like last week, this week's netcast is bursting at the seams with SharePoint goodness. I cover a Kerberos "gotcha" that got me last week. Then I talk about why you should slipstream your own installs instead of being a lazy bum and using the SP1 installer on MSDN. I talk about why you shouldn't use SQL authentication between SharePoint and SQL. I debut my @SP2010Patches Twitter account where I'll tweet out when new SharePoint 2010 patches are released, and when regressions pop up. I talk about some basic email troubleshooting and the dessert of the netcast is an update on my self-publish, self-promoted, self-aggrandizing ebook. Oh, and I talk about best practices.

Body: Tonight's netcast was a long one. After taking last week off I had a lot to cover this week. I started off by telling everyone about the new, and even longer Kerberos white paper. Then, for something completely different, I talk about the improvements a CU made to the User Profile Service. I also talk about a bug I encountered with FAST server and how I fixed it. I talk about a weird service application issue and I encountered. Don't worry, I beat it. Then I cover a couple of migration issues I came across. This one has a lot of great information in it. You might have to listen to it twice to get everything out of it.

Body: The good news is that tonight's netcast is almost all other people's content! That means it's probably better information than most of my netcasts. I cover a bug Keith Richie found with the blob cache. I also talk about why we should all get cozy with host named site collections. Kirk Evans convinced me. I also talk about another snag I ran into with the User Profile Service and how I fixed it.

Body: In tonight's episode I talk about my install guidance blog post, and why it stinks. I cover what a CRL is, and why it might be slowing down your SharePoint farm. Then I cover yet another fun and exciting User Profile Service bugaboo.

Body: In the last week I’ve been asked for this information a few times, so I decided to go ahead and blog it. I’ve been hesitant to put out an official blog post on this, because I don’t think it’s ready for prime time. But, it keeps coming up, so here it is, the steps I follow when I install SharePoint 2010. Before we get into the actual steps, let me tell you about a couple of caveats. First, this list is NOT comprehensive. There are a lot of pieces that aren’t in this list. I started this list to keep me from forgetting steps, or from doing steps out of order. Steps that I don’t normally forget, or don’t benefit from being done in a specific order, aren’t on the list. It doesn’t mean they aren’t necessary, they just aren’t on this guy’s list. Second, I link to a lot of PowerShell in these steps. PLEASE, PLEASE look over every single script before you run it on your server. There are some bad scripts in there. Some have passwords and app pools hard coded in them. Really, really bad ideas...

Body: Tonight's netcast is done from the comfort of my basement. I talk about the February 2012 CU, SQL 2012 RTMing, and how to become a developer. And no, the first step is not "stop showering."

Body: In tonight's netcast I get to broadcast live from the San Francisco Rackspace office. This provides me with both better equipment and a crowd of ruffians amusing themselves in the background. Shane and I talk about SPTechCon and how to make ourselves better people. I also talk about December 2011 CU and a couple of potential problems with it.

Body: Tonight's netcast covers some weighty topics like migrating blogs from one SharePoint farm to another, some database cmdlets, and a way to make using the AutoSPInstaller even easier to use, if that's possible.
