audit account logon events
This is a video about auditing account logon events. It records successful and failed account log on events to a Microsoft Windows server 2008 domain. In an Active Directory environment, these events will be recorded to the domain controllers event viewer and must be viewed there. This feature is available on Server 2008, 2003, and 2000. You may also enact these policies on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or 7, if they are a member of the domain. If they are not members of a domain, you may record them locally, but remember they must be viewed locally.

Internet Connection Sharing
Internet Connection Sharing is a way to share your internet connection for other computers. It requires two network cards on your computer. It also requires a crossover cable or a switch/hub between your network cards. You can use this if you have to pay for an internet connection. With ICS two or more people can connect while only paying for one. You can also use this to make a machine as a gateway for your office. However, complications arise if you are running a Windows Active Directory domain or already have a DHCP server. This feature is available on Microsoft Windows 2000, xp, vista, 7, server 2000, 2003, 2008.

Check Disk (chkdsk)
This is a video about how to run a chkdsk (check disk) on your windows OS. CheckDisk will repair and try to recover a dirty file system. Most of the time that I use this is when I see a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) with a 0×0000007B stop code. This means that the file system is corrupt and you should run a CHKDSK /R on your operating system. Also, I’ve various people tell me that they need to do this as their file systems become too fragmented. I demonstrate the methods available on Microsoft Windows 2000 XP Vista & Server 2003 and 2008. This is a very important part of disk maintenance. If windos is too corrupt to boot these may also be run from Startup Repair/Recovery Console. The commands I run are…
chkdsk /f e:
chkdsk /r e:
chkdsk /r c:
chkdsk /r d:
