In the process of setting up to teach 50382A - Implementing Forefront Identity Manager 2010 in Phoenix, AZ (Feb 8-11 and May 23 – May 26 – registration info to follow in a subsequent post) and looking at other courses in the Microsoft Courseware library I have noticed an interesting trend – most courses have lots of very bland reviews like this: “Good Course” “Good one” “Good content and best practices”
Tomorrow morning at 8 AM PST I will be participating as a speaker in a webinar with Jonathan Sander from Quest. http://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/22703 Successful identity and access management means different things to different organizations, but in almost every case, it requires complex, time-consuming, and expensive solutions. However, an ever-growing number of organizations have found a new way to achieve their identity and access management objectives simply, inexpensively, and powerfully. In this webcast, identity and access management experts will discuss how organizations like yours have discovered and are implementing a simplified approach to identity and access management.
Could you post a complete listing of the correctio… Keith Crosby - Sep 3, 2010Could you post a complete listing of the corrections? In particular, the changes around the unattended client install. BTW, great job on Volume 1. I’m, looking forward to Volume 2 (and an eBook version would be great as well). I love volume 1! Is it too soon to start asking about volume 2 :-) Keith, I have made a new post with the details of what should be on page 183 (unattended client install)

Congratulations!! I’ll order it immediately. Naohiro Fujie - Aug 1, 2010Congratulations!! I’ll order it immediately. Congrats, any chance of an ebook? Dan, I considered the e-book route, but at least for the time being decided to go with a printed version. Feel free to lobby and persuade me why an ebook version would be better. Thanks for the orders! Ordered! I was hoping there’d be an eBook for instant gratification and keyword search.
