Change port of Sharepoint Central Admin

As you may know the port for the central administration site is auto generated when you install WSS or MOSS. I don’t think there is a way to change this inside the CA, if there is please let me know.

One way to change this port is to use stsadm.exe tool, a very handy tool with lots of functionality. Here is the command to change the port of the Sharepoint Central Administration site: Stsadm –o setadminport –port 1234

R.I.P. HD-DVD

image

Well seems like HD-DVD finally threw the towel in the ring. Sony’s 13 company-led association takes this price with its Blu-ray disk. I don’t really care which part would win this round. I knew there could only be one. It’s too crazy to produce a movie in 2 different formats, two different brands. Wouldn’t be good for the customers, what would they have to take ? What hardware would they need to buy etc..

Now Blu-ray will probably go even more mainstream. Prices will drop of reader/writers etc, more movies, games etc will come out in this format and we probably all will be forced to buy something to read or write to it.

Time will tell, more about this story can be read  here

Life at Microsoft

Ever wondered what life is like at Microsoft ? Here’s a funny spoof video.

Visual Studio 2008 hotfix

Yesterday Microsoft released a hotfix for Visual Studio 2008. This should fix most of the bugs that were reported since it got released some time ago.

You can get it here.

Been busy

Hi everyone,

Sorry I haven’t been posting lately. I’ve been working very hard on my final project at school and that takes up a lot of time and energy.

One thing I do want to mention, if you have time 11-13 march and are interested in Microsoft’s technology you definitely have to check out the Belgium Microsoft TechDays. Here is the program listing.

I can’t be there because at that moment I will be in Germany attending Cebit. Ok that’s it for now.
