I wonder how can one find information about existing SCCM management points in domain. I know that it's possible to implement nslookup -type=any _mssms_mp_Site_code._tcp.Domain. But what if I don't know the site code? Is it possible to find management point without this knowledge?

This depends on how complex your setup is and to some point also on the configuration of your whole site but if you only use one site and have the site publish data to your ad it can be done. MPs are then stored in "CN=System Management,CN=System,[your domain]", Named SMS-MP-[Sitecode]-[FQDN]" and they should have a property called MSSMSDefaultMP which tells you the default one if there are more than one.
You could search for them with powershell like this:
$ADSysMgmtContainer = [ADSI]("LDAP://CN=System Management,CN=System,[your domain]")
$AdSearcher = [adsisearcher]"(&(Name=SMS-MP-*)(objectClass=mSSMSManagementPoint))"
$AdSearcher.SearchRoot = $ADSysMgmtContainer
$ADManagementPoint = $AdSearcher.FindAll() | where {$_.Properties.mssmsdefaultmp -eq $true}
$ADManagementPoint.Properties.dnshostname
Of course this all assumes you do this from a server that is not part of the site because if you have the sccm client installed on the machine you do the query from you can just look the site up. You can read more on the prerequisites and how MP discovery is generally done here.

Question : What best option ( both cost effect and performs well ) for running windows server in the cloud and connecting to it from windows desktops. I only really need authentication.
It looks like Azure has a couple of different active directory solutions for authentication / AD services & paying extra to get things like SSO. Much more cost effective than a full virtual server.

My network user id keeps getting locked out, but I'm not doing it. I'm positive no one is using it besides me, but it is embedded in various places, for example I have a local IIS instance that is using it. However, my ID was locked over the weekend & I wasn't working. I'm assuming that my id is embedded somewhere else with an old password. How can I find out where?
Scour the Windows Security event logs on the machines where you may have set up scheduled tasks or services to run as you. Or if it's consistently happening, power down a machine and see if you still get locked out, if you do it's not that powered off machine, use the process of elimination that way (if possible).

Is it 100% safe to move the pagefile.sys file from c: to another drive on Windows Server 2008? We are getting low on C: space and need to move it off, but not if there is any risk. This is a production web server and (other than a quick reboot) downtime is not acceptable, as you can imagine :)
I dont think this is a good place for such questions, its a programming related site,
I can give you a hint that this should be OK, It will even speed up you paging file, some reference below (I was actually reading it recently :) ):

following part:
What you should actually do is move your pagefile to a completely
different physical drive to split up the workload.
but confirm it with some windows admin experts

Is it theoretically possible to register a new top-level domain (so I would have a page like page.mydomain)? If yes, then where is it possible and how much is it?
It seems you are looking for TLDs (Top-Level Domains). Historically, only countries and large interest groups could register TLDs, but recently ICANN, the organisation in charge internet domain names, opened bidding for corporate TLDs. You can see a current list of applications here. To apply for one yourself, I believe the entering price is somewhere around $10,000, but I'm not sure. Either way, the wait for authorisation is probably still over a year, so I wouldn't count on getting it done soon or cheap.

Is it possible to employ Business Contact Manager 2007 without running Outlook in Cached mode?
According to all the reasearch I have done this is a prerequisite, and certainly upon installing and testing it seems to be the case, but keeping local copies of inboxes is simply too large a security hole for us, I find it difficult to believe that this is a requirement!
Thanks in advance for your responses!
The answer on the most basic level here is No.
But the security hole created by storing copies of Mailboxes on workstations can be worked around, it is as simple as moving the local mailbox storage file (.ost file) to a secure server then re wiring outlook to find it in its new location.
Hope this helps someone!
