There are times when you want to be able to see all the users that have access to the SPS server. 

Note:You must have administrator access in SPS to view thepage.

http://ServerName/_layouts/1033/Siteusrs.aspx 

Replace “ServerName” with the name of your server.  A list of users associated with the site is now available for you to edit or remove.

Now you can change the site collection owner, the descriptive name and add comments.  I love this feature because when I was first setting up groups and users on our Sharepoint server a few years back, I included the domain name as part of the name (which was the default).  This looked ugly and for the life of me I could not figure out how to change it.  This page allows you to just that!

The page also works on sites.  For Example our SPS server has several sites and each one has different security settings.  We don’t want our consultants reviewing our sales site and stealing potential clients now do we?

Again replace the “ServerName” with your server name and the ”SiteName” with your site name.

I hope this tip is as useful to you as it was for me.

Today I took the Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) test for Designing a Portal Solution with Microsoft Sharepoint Products and Technologies and passed it!  I was a bit worried because I only studied a couple of hours this morning before heading over to the  local college to take it.

I actually did quiet well!  I passed with a score of 900 out of 1000!  The funny thing is I knew the 5 questions that I got wrong were.  When I was answering the question I kepting asking myself if this was the answer that Microsoft wanted to hear or was it the answer that felt was right based on deploying a couple Sharepoint sites over the years.  As you guess, I made the wrong choice. Next time I need to remember to give the Microsoft answer, even if I feel its wrong!

When you only miss  five or six questions you really want to take the test over again and get them all right!! Oh well!  At least this is off my plate as one of my goals to complete this spring!
