    ILM Resource Kit vs Windows 2008

    If you are planning to use the MIIS Resource Kit tools with ILM 2007 (FP1) on Windows 2008...
    A small hint: run the tools in Windows 2003 compatibility mode.

    If not, you might run into some unpleasant surprises (like applications hanging...)
     
    Kind regards,

    MS ILM Forum Greatest Hits launched

    Source: MS Identity Lifecycle Manager forum

    "This forum is a great repository for valuable information that enables you to learn about and troubleshoot ILM.
    In an effort to provide you with a faster, easier, and more valuable forum experience, we have created the Greatest Hits Collection.
    The Greatest Hits Collection is a set of technical articles that are developed to address the following three key areas:

    • Discoverability – For common questions, you should be able to find your answer quickly and easily without the need to read several related posts to find authoritative information.
    • In-Depth Content - There are questions that require more than just a one- or two-liner as response.
    • Dependability - Strategic questions require a single authoritative response, which must be technically relevant and accurate, not an individual’s opinion.

    Each Greatest Hit Article is a result of a collaborative effort to develop helpful technical information.
    While written by an ILM expert, each article has been reviewed (prior to its release) by a group of identity management specialists from Microsoft and thought leaders from this community to ensure technical accuracy and relevancy of the content.
    The content of the Greatest Hit Articles spans a broad range of areas from general information about how to approach an identity management related problem to technical descriptions of features.
    Greatest Hits articles are filling a gap between a typical forum post and Microsoft’s official core documentation."

    I'm proud to announce that I've added a Greatest Hits Article to the list: How to get the maximum return on your forum question.

    Thanks to all the people who supported me and who provided valuable feedback.
