A discussion with a colleague about a software problem relating to Sage Accounts (a UK accounting package) and .Net lead to an interesting find.

As part of a virtualisation project I can across this during the conversion of an SBS server before the server cals had been transferred. There are many other circumstances that you will see this but the basic problem remains the same. You must log on as an administrator to fix it. So when you don’t […]
