Open you local GPO using MMC or using the GPO editor in your AD. Then enable “Only allow local user profiles” in Computer Config -> Administrative Templates -> System -> User Profiles

If you completly want to disable roaming profiles on your Terminal Server
you also have to enable “Prevent Roaming Profile changes from propagating to
the server”.

Force a truncation of a SQL log

I ran into an issue recently with a log file that would not shrink. All the DB Truncates that I ran would not shrink it. The fix is to just detach the DB, rename the log file and reattach. That will create a new log file from scratch.

Detail are here

sp_detach_db [YourDatabaseName]

then

sp_attach_db @dbname = N‘YourDatabaseName’,
@filename1 = N‘D:\Microsoft SQL Server1\MSSQL\Data\YourDatabaseName.MDF’

I have no idea why, but more and more I am seeing search crawls result in error of “access is denied”. The issue is that the web server is not allowing authentication to sites that are localhost (or local). The fix is simple, but I wish I knew why this was creeping up more.

Fix is here

In short do the follow. The reboot is necessary.
