I have missed a week of updates, so I will summarize weeks 37 & 38 together this time. The past two weeks were definitely not as productive as I would have liked. They were, however, more productive than I expected, since just about everyone in our family has been out with a nasty stomach bug. Everyone is feeling much better now, and I am looking forward to focusing for this last week before I take my 70-410 exam.
Cool Stuff
The coolest thing from the past two weeks, well, at least the most surprising, was how easy it is to do an offline domain join. Using djoin, I was able to pre-stage and provision computer's account in Active Directory, copy the file to the currently non-domain joined, non-networked computer, and add the computer to the domain. After a reboot, I reconnected the network adapter and the computer was able to access domain resources just as it would if it had been online for the domain join process. Very cool!

In Closing
With only one week to go before I write my first exam, I will be focusing heavily on practice exams and brushing up on any topics where I need improvement. It's going to be a great, but busy week.
Have a great week everyone!
