I am using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement to find the logged-in user's AD entry. It is working great in the VS2008 WebDev server on developers machines. But when we installed the code on the development server (windows server 2008), we get an access error. Both the developer's machine and the development server are members of the same domain.

The actual exception that we were receiving was

In my ongoing effort to wrap my head around Azure's new Resource Group model (see previous questions here and here ), I am now trying to create a new Virtual Machine that will be used as a web server. I have thee questions: Question One: Assuming I eventually want this VM to host the website woodswild.com, what DNS Name Label should I give this VM? Does it matter? All I know for sure is that it needs to be globally unique. Does it need to reflect the domain I want to host (woodswild.com)? Question Two: Do I even need to set the DNS name at all? Question Three: And, now that I've already

I am getting an exception System.IO.Internal.BufferOverflowException when I am trying to monitor a folder on network path(DFS - Distributed File System): To many changes at once . It works fine when FileSystemWatcher is monitoring local/network path that don't use this filesystem. I am able to get an event from 1000 + files on local path and I am not getting BufferOverflow exception, however when I am copying file to folder that is on DFS I am not even able to get an event from one(To clarify this, I am getting an error event raised...).

On our server running Windows Server 2008 R2 there is a scheduled task that runs a Windows application (.Net 4.0) under a specific domain user that performs some tasks and reports its progress in a listbox on a form that pops up by double clicking on a tray icon (right hand side of the task bar). I understand that if I logon to the server (I can only remote desktop to the server) with a different user other than the one the scheduled task runs the application under I would not be able to see any user interface of the application but the problem is even if I remote desktop with the same login
