February 17, 201411 yr Watch your back. I hear you, but this place ain't bad at all. I feel safer here than in most American cities.
February 17, 201411 yr MountainHerc, Are you keeping up with queep at home while you are downrange....if so, stop it! Here's my plan that has worked for the last 16.9 years: 1) when getting ready for leave, TDY, deployment, etc, put the ol out of office reply to work. 2) enjoy your time away from the squadron...it will not burn down and the wheels will keep on turning while you are gone...trust me. You are not as important as you think you are. However, you are a unique snowflake---just like everyone else! 3) when you return, open up outlook and delete every email you got while gone....don't spend even a second reading them. If it was that important, that person already found the info they needed or they will write/email/call back at a later date. BLOB (that's the lesser used Bottom Line On Bottom): concentrate on the mish downrange and stop giving a shit about the squadron running's back home...it will be there when you RTB safety! Check 6! Cap-10 4) I couldn't agree more about the squadron still being there when I get back, but I'm trying to get out of there. I needed some of the emails in my inbox to help put together packages for guard unit applications and get my second attempt at Palace Chase together.
February 17, 201411 yr I think people are getting too wrapped around the axle over what Cap said. If there is something so important that it needs to get done overnight, my boss has either told me to stay and work on it, or come in on a Sunday. This has been the exception in my short career and in each case warranted. Other than that, I'm not working on shit at home.
February 18, 201411 yr Sort of back to the original question again...is anyone able to access the OWA? I've been on the road for a while and I've only been able to get access once.
February 18, 201411 yr I have, however AFNET (especially on the AETC side) has had connectivity issues for the past few weeks.
February 19, 201411 yr doesnt work for me either...all day has been giving me a 500 server error certificates have been revoked Edited February 19, 201411 yr by tunes
February 24, 201411 yr Webmail (from Home) for both Scott and Little Rock stopped working for me last week and isn't working yet. And now the AF Port Hole isn't working either. Anybody got a clue what's going on and an estimated fix time? 17D guy?
February 24, 201411 yr I'm on a MacBook Air and have no issues accessing webmail for HRT. The server was down for the weekend, but was working prior to and is currently working fine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited February 24, 201411 yr by hispeed7721
February 24, 201411 yr The Port Hole is working now, but I still can't get the Email4Life (Scott) or Little Rock webmail from home. I get: Error code 500 Internal server error (1359) for both.
February 27, 201411 yr I've not had any of these issues. I accessed webmail as recently as last night with no issues. My base is on the Andrews server if that makes a difference.
March 1, 201411 yr We've got this new one going on - AFNET will wipe your profile after 90 days non-use. So far all my Operators out here at Offutt who deploy for 100 days.. they come back to a nice clean workstation with no docs/files/favorites. I'm working with the 3 organizations that "manage" what we're calling our network now. Three.. and they don't communicate, or exist near each other.
March 5, 201411 yr ESD had a DCO conference the other day. Some of their stats are... shocking. As is the fact that AFSPC seriously under-estimated demand.. then under-manned the positions, then slashed the contractors during sequestration. Basically you're calling an organization that's manned 1/2 of what it was before Christmas. So, thank AFSPC for once again managing a domain they could really not give a shit about (hi Nukes!) and blaming that community for it's own problems. Good news, if you're having problems you can ask/push your base Comm. Sq about Federated Rights which is returning many of admin privileges to the base. I know at my base we did a hard push for it (and then an upper agency has since sat on it..) and we're hoping to get help to our customers soon.
