JB, supervisor in shipping called and told me his assistant, WP, had trouble resetting his password which has expired. He said Warren even tried using a combination of uppercase and lower case letters and numbers to conform to the new password standard but he was not able to successfully change his password. I came by his desk, reset his password and walked him through changing it. He was able to change his password successfully.
Al asked me about the files that Tom Erickson saved for the new HR administrator. I told him Tom has created a folder called ‘for Deborah’ in his network folder and put all the files their last week. Milton came by and also talke to me about it, and sensing the urgency of thae matter, I decided to transfer the files myself. I looked for Deborah’s folder on the Windows file server but it wasn’t there. I looked at her user information and found her home directory was not defined. I proceeded to define her home directory using the %user% variable and somehow the Windows server did not take it. I had to use her full name. When her home directory appeared, I copied the folder from Tom’s network drive to her Windows home directory. I also had to add her to the Migrated group in the Novell server so her F: drive maps to her Windows home directory.
John P. informed me that the movers from Diversified did not show up this morning as expected. They were supposed to be in the building first thing in the morning put back the two multifunction printers they disassembled last Friday. John told me the printers are still sitting outside unable to be used by the Document Control department. I called Diversified and talked to Bob who was in charge of the work order. Bob thought the work was done last Friday. I told him the situation so he said he was going to make some phone calls and will call me back. I gave him my cell number.
