random stuff Bubba comes across - and needs to remember. 
Heck, don't you just LOVE it when Exchange tells you that you don't have the rights to do something you need to do? Especially if you're the Über-Admin?! Happened to me today when I was moving a mailbox from an Exchange 2003 Server to a mailbox database on an Exchange 2010 machine.

Okay, this pretty much bugged me out: We had IE8 running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 RDS server (yes, Terminal Server for all you OldFolks). We had certain sites assigned to specific Internet Explorer zones (some backing sites to "Trusted", some internal stuff to "Intranet", etc). Everything worked hanky danky when logged on locally - but users connecting with REmote Desktop Services do not get the site-to-zone assignment lists applied.
Try one thing: install Microsoft Office (pretty much any version) on a Terminal Server (sorry, it's Remote Desktop Session Host, or RDS Host, since we're on Server 2008 R2). Then try to use some advanced Outlook forms - like what we do with IronMountain (formerly Mimosa) NearPoint. Chances are you'll see a message telling you to bugger off - because Form scripting is not installed.
Okay, I was browsing around looking for the control panel applet names in Windows Server 2008 (or Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008R2, for that matter) to include in a new policy. Not that you ned to know what I was doing, but just throwing it out there.
Anyway, over on petri.co.il I came across a cool thing: GOD MODE.
