Please congratulate the following sixteen readers, all winners in October. Our grand-prize winner is Doug Woznicki, senior systems engineer for international executive recruiting company CTPartners. Woznicki won a free training course from Global Knowledge worth up to $2,995. Woznicki correctly answered the trivia question: According to the October 1 blog post made by Global Knowledge trainer Randy Muller, Microsoft is using three criteria to help identify cheaters … 1) how long it takes a student to answer a question, 2) click-time for a selection. What is the third thing? Answer: Overall time to take a test
Woznicki, a self-described server guy and MCSE 2003, says his company is a through-and-through Windows shop. He’s been reading about Windows Server 2008 and thinks he might use his free training class to learn more about it. Woznicki says that the R2 release of WS2008 looks great. He’s particularly happy with the new Terminal Server (now called Remote Desktop Services) and is excited about its branch office and IPsec support. The latter might help ease the pain of providing users with secure access, without making them deal with annoying logins. (If you are interested in learning more about Windows Server 2008, check out Microsoft Subnet’s WS2008 guru’s blog, Glenn Weadock.)
