Breakin'

Stuff keeps breakin'!

This week, when we shutdown the old domain controller, everything broke. Many staff couldn't do anything. I realized quickly that all of their computers had their DNS manually set. The old server no longer existed and nothing made sense to the workstations anymore. This easy fix wasn't so easy because for some PCs DNS settings would revert back to manual. Eventually I realized that the old IT Manager had implemented a login script after all, he had just done it randomly so when I had checked a few accounts I didn't see it. For no reason that I could discern certain staff had the script running including the ED, one of the receptionists, and the advocate. I've screamed my predecessor's name several times this week. His specter continues to haunt my network.
