A short while ago I saw someone at the office use pushd to cd into a network path. I've used pushd/popd on Windows for some time, but I never thought to try it on a network path or actually read the help for it. Pushd will actually map the path to a drive letter automatically and then take you there. The latter part is ...

Authentication and SOAP proxies

My last post discussed authentication in web service calls using HttpWebRequest. That caused one reader to wonder how this ties back to SOAP requests.If you are using wsdl.exe to generate a SOAP proxy class, it derives from System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol. That class has a Credentials property. If you want to ...

Hatteras has three tiers: client, middle, and data. The middle tier is an ASP.NET web service on a Windows 2003 Server running IIS 6. When the client (we use C# for both it and the middle tier) connects to the middle tier, it must authenticate with IIS 6. Depending upon the IIS configuration, that may be negotiate, NTLM, ...

Someone on the newsgroups asked for an official answer on why Team System is not in Whidbey Beta 1. The short answer is that it's not beta quality, so it didn't belong in a beta.

The May 2004 CTP that contained Team System (but not Team Foundation, which includes source control and work item tracking) is supposed to be up on MSDN by Monday. There were a number of requests for it in the newsgroups after it was mistakenly removed from MSDN...

I got the July issue of Triangle TechJournal and opened it up to find an interview of Robert Scoble by Andy Beal (the interview doesn't appear to be on the web site yet). So even my mail box has been Scobleized.Among other things, he mentions taking 7400 pictures over the last 18 months. Even for digital, that seems like a lot. ...
