[dba-Tech] Never set your system to auto-updates

This morning all the computers and router was off-line. I initially assumed
there had been a power outage but then became aware that none of the clocks
had suffered the same fate.

It took a while to figure out what had happen but after checking the event
log it was noted that a MS auto update had gone through on the server....
Yes, I know what you are going to say; "Never auto update on; and especially
not server."

There had been an auto update and the update affected the active directory
and these effects rippled through to each station and each station was
auto-rebooted.

So never have MS auto-update on...
