Sometimes there are 'legitimate' reasons for things. Like restarting the Store service so that a bigwig can send as that brand new group you just created for him.

Even now some of the staff are starting to come in early to get "more" done and making my window into a slash. I have proposed changing my hours again to make them even earlier just to get my window back again, so far my boss has resisted that idea, seems he feels I am needed for desktop support as well as every other thing. Sorry this is just a very sore point for me. *\ rant off \* Jon On Fri, May 8, 2009 at 4:13 AM, James Rankin <[email protected]> wrote: The problem I have is finding time to do the patching and troubleshooting of Exchange out-of-hours whilst looking after my five-month old twins - and the fact that the company won't pay me to do it outside of normal hours anyway.

If you're bouncing services during business hours you have bigger problems.

By that I mean the pop-ups that come up indicating that connection to Exchange has been lost/restored etc. I am sick of doing a quick restart of services and getting phone calls from users who obviously have nothing better to do than stare at the status indicator :-) GPO would be preferable but I have done a recce of the Office 2007 templates and can't find anything suitable...
