I received
a phone call
this morning
waking me up
at
the
ungodly hour
of
8am
ok
it was a little
after 8am
like maybe
a quarter past
but
close enough
for government work

step forward

All hell has
broken loose

About
1000 computers
are getting
funky duplicate name
errors and are
being denied
login rights

step forward

Start looking
for a domain trust issues
cause
these machines belong
to one domain
while the users
belong to
another

step forward

turns out
the is a WINS/DNS entry
for a machine
as the domain name
track it down
trace the ip
the machine
is part of
another domain
and named nothing close

step forward

check wins/dns
domain resolves
to that same prior individual machine
cant be that

step forward

turns out
some fucking putz
did a manual host entry
on one of the servers
mapping
the domain in question
to some way fucked IP

step forward

so now
nothing works
and
everyone is
chewing our asses
cause of
some dumbfuck
in
ITGLand

step forward

have the
entry delete
cause
even though
we run the domain
ITG wont give us
admin rights
some dumb ass sure
but not
the ppl who actually
support it

step forward

they delete
the incorrect entries
and
now
we

wait

wait

wait

wait

wait

for it
to
replicate
