Todd Klindt's SharePoint Admin Netcast

In tonight's episode I try to make up for lost time and cover all kinds of topics. I talk about all the fun I had at SPTechCon. I talk about SQL aliases and how to wrangle them. I also talk about how to create a new Logging DB as well as how you can't trust SharePoint if it tells you a service instance is running.

We also talk about how cool my new workflow blog post is.We also chat about about SharePoint and SQL patches and why they are such a pain.
