Once again, we met at The Vault on the North Side. At this meeting we discussed a variety of issues, including tools for dealing with spam emails (RMU uses Proofpoint, by the way, see link in list below), using terminal services (or anything besides Citrix) for remote connectivity to secure apps, PC imaging tools, PDF creator freeware, and third-party Crystal Reports readers. Here are the various resources and software tools discussed at the meeting:
