Just updated our BES from version 4 to 5, and migrated the whole thing to a brand new VMWare VM. The process was interesting to say the least; I had fun trying to actually find the database… It was running on MS SQL Express with remote connections disabled and no management studio installed. Once that was done though, I was able to (with help) migrate the database to a new MS SQL Enterprise server and the BES 5.0 install ran pretty smoothly.

Recover Windows XP Offline files from local cache
Windows XP offers a handy feature that allows you to take files stored on a network drive and use them even without a network connection. The files are then re-synced back to the server the next time network access is detected. Unfortunately, the service, while a fantastic idea, is not very stable in practice. In case of errors, there IS a procedure to recover files from the local cache. It involves using version 1.1 of Microsoft’s csccmd (not available directly on MS website.)
(Note to Microsoft: if it isn’t ok for me to host this file, then let me know and I’ll remove it.)
