He is a DBA not a AD administrator, but I see your reasoning and logic...

Subject: [NTSysADM] Can't believe I just heard this

Prepping for a large AD migration.  We have the netdiag, dcdiag, dns and 
replication issues resolved.  Now we are trying to fix issues in the DC's event 
logs.  One of the DCs is a SQL Server (!!!) and runs Microsoft's NT to Unix 
stuff.  The NT to Unix thing is generating thousands of errors and broke last 
year in October.  How did the DBA "fix" his NT to Unix issues?  He uses 
ADSIEdit on a daily basis to "fix" stuff!!!  Why a DBA has access to run 
ADSIEdit is beyond me.  So he asks why I am so concerned about the errors in 
the event logs.  I tell him we need to fix all these errors before the 
migration so the issues are not brought over to the parent org's AD.  His 
response - "just clear the event log and the errors go away"!!!

DOH!  How do some people get their jobs???
