Meine pinboard.in-Links vom 21. Februar bis zum 6. März:

• git-annex – allows managing files with git, without checking the file contents into git. While that may seem paradoxical, it is useful when dealing with files larger than git can currently easily handle, whether due to limitations in memory, checksumming time, or disk space.

• Searching Active Directory with ldapsearch – If you think there isn't a trick to this, that means you've never tried it – leastways not on an Active Directory container that has more than 1,000 objects in it (or whatever the search limit has been set to in your environment)
• TCP Performance problems caused be interaction between Nagle's Algorithm and Delayed ACK – The overall summary is that many of the mechanisms that make TCP so great, like fast retransmit, work best when there's a continuous flow of data for the TCP state machine to work on. If you send a block of data and then stop and wait for an application-layer acknowledgment from the other end, the state machine can falter.

Das tolle an einem globalen Adressbuch in Exchange ist ja, dass man an seinem Computer ein stets aktuelles Verzeichnis aller Mitarbeiter des Unternehmens hat. Zumindest wenn man Microsoft Outlook unter Windows nutzt.

Wenn man als Mac-User das lokale OS X Adressbuch mit dem Exchange-Server synchronisieren möchte, stößt man unweigerlich auf den Apple-Artikel Synchronisieren von Adressbuch und Exchange.

Dem Artikel lässt sich auch sehr gut folgen, nur funktioniert das ganze leider nicht. Wenn man den Sync-Vorgang mit dem Outlook WebAccess anstößt, findet sich in den Logs der Absturz des Programms Translator:

Die Apple-Discussions sind leider nicht sehr hilfreich, weiter ist zu dem Thema offenbar noch niemand gekommen und Apple hält sich bedeckt…

Aber es gibt noch eine weitere Möglichkeit in drei einfachen Schritten an das globale Exchange-Adressbuch heran zu kommen. Kein kompletter Sync, aber eine As you type Suche, und das ist ja auch schon sehr nett.

Die Anleitung startet nach dem Klick…
