    Oh yes, my Google Fu is powerful today.I found the answer and tried it, just what the doctor ordered, aside from some weird formatting, but who cares really?

    You can open/read your email and then in the toolbar at the top under Move, choose Calendar. A calendar schedule appointment opens up with your email subject in the subject line and in the text area the body of your email. You just set your start/end time and BAM, its on the calendar. I might actually get stuff done now.

    @Bill-Kindle people coming from another community have been conditioned with heavy misuse if the term beta. It makes people think that it is something that it is not.

    Right, my bad.

    For an entry-level employee, I can see doing some prepwork. For an experienced employee, a typical rite of passage often is having them set up their own workstation, join it to the domain, etc. Watching how they go about this and paying attentention to the questions they ask will give great insight on how to go about training them in an effective fashion.

    Few large companies would give desktop admin rights to average IT folk. And far fewer would let them join to the domain.

    Most larger companies would use something like SCCM or VDI, so joining the computer to the domain would have already been done.

    I don't think that VDI is as common as you would imagine. I've yet to hear of Fortune 500s even discussing it yet. I only work in so many, but from what I've been seeing it is a long way off from common adoption for normal users in the large space. It seems to be mostly small companies doing it. I'm sure some large companies are going that way, but I've not seen it not really heard about it. Now small companies, I hear them doing it every day.

    I'm familiar with a Fortune 100 that's working on implementing VDI. Bigger companies are doing it, but it's more of a phase-in process. Because of this, it isn't as widely known. Most implementations start with a PoC at a smaller division, then grow from there.

    I mentioned the idea for the machine or VM to my superior and it looks like it is a go. Sometimes I need a slap in the back of my head when it comes to real IT thinking. We went from being apart of another department doing half IT/half pricing stuff, with their budget mixed in, the pricing stuff more important, & extremely underpowered hardware. We (Finally) split off in December of last year & I helped in the process of selecting and installing shiny new machines for our users, for our registers & new servers. Of course along the entire process I've had the help & plethora of info from you awesome people. 🙂

    Thanks @Dashrender. I've actually have changed most to come to my email address which will be one of the aliases forwarding to Zendesk along with support, info and something else. I will then create a new email address for myself. This way all the clients that have my email address will automatically go to Zendesk to create tickets. I just have to weed out vendors and such and send them along to my new email addy.

    That name suggests that it is encrypted. That will pose a problem.

    I guess I'm missing something.

    Even with Linux, you can have ACLs. Linux can participate in AD through LDAP and pass user credentials if they were ever needed.

    That's where I am getting confused. I think I did read once that Linux can participate in AD through LDAP , but completely forgot about it since I have never used it. Thanks. 🙂 If I ever needed to use it, does it work smoothly?

    That's not related to NTFS ACLs though.

    That's true - that's why I posted my first post the way I did - there was mixing of terms Samba and NTFS - not talking the same language one is a sharing protocol and the other drive format.

    I suppose that the OP didn't specify if they wanted the ACL set at the share level or at the filesystem level. Actually he did, it was that he needed no permissions. Although in light of things like Cryptolocker - if users don't normally need write permissions there, I'd limit them to read only for the sake of things like Cryptolocker.
