bfi – canaries – 1 flight up

Tripped over this microsoft bug (Yes – it is a a BUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGG!!!!!! microsoft) again today.

“exclusive access” by default for redirected documents on a 2008 or better server by default. LOL.

It does prevent certain oh, how shall we say this – trivial? features.

What features? Oh, well….

Backup? you want the administrator account to be able to backup these files?

OOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPHHHHHHHS. Yet another “not a shining moment” for microsoft tech.

I have my doubts about this suggested fix.
