As I’ve been getting to grips with SharePoint Server 2010 I’m really starting to appreciate how modular and how WAN friendly the product is. Our organisation is a large multinational with major regional sites around the world, unfortunately not every regional site has SharePoint Administrators available for their disposal. With that in mind we wanted [...]
We’ve been working with Microsoft SharePoint Server (MSS) 2010 for a little while now and trying to plan our strategy going forward. One feature we’re interested in is utilising People Search as a corporate global address-book. One compelling reason for a multinational company like ours is to use the new phonetic search.

I’m in the process of finalising my unattended install script for SharePoint Server 2010 and during some of my initial playing around I came across this vague error; The Local Farm Is Not Accessible.

Yay! This update was relatively quick, for Apple’s standards. Just under two weeks from upload to approval, so looks like things are improving. It’s no where near the one week approval it used to be back in the day, but at least it’s not the three months I waited before. This 2.1 release addresses the [...]
Hi All, It’s been a busy several days, especially so since version 2.0 was released. This was a massive step forward in functionality but with that there is sometimes the odd defect gets through. Once 2.0 was released and some feedback was received, I had the 2.1 update on there a couple of days afterwards. [...]
Hi All, Just wanted to say there was a slight quality control issue with the release of the 2.0 version. When you Zoom In and Out the page numbers will jump when viewing PDF files. How this escaped this eagle eye is beyond me, but there is a 2.1 release sitting in the App Store [...]
