Neal Walters, MCT, MCSD
So many websites have no 'personal' touch behind them. I was teaching a lot of XML/XSLT classes before BizTalk came out, so when BizTalk 2000 came on the scene, I assumed it was the next thing to learn.
After teaching Biztalk 2000/2002 a few times, I was fortunate to attend the train-the-trainer class for BizTalk 2004, then I probably taught the class a dozen times, at which point I moved into full time consulting instead of training.
Since then, I have spent 4 years focusing on enterprise solutions centered around BizTalk, but also including .NET, C#, InfoPath and SharePoint. I've been using BizTalk 2006 since roughly the beginning of 2007.
I missed the training aspect, and love to teach, so I started making videos and providing them on the web.
If you want to see how my beard compares to some past presidents - it's uncanny - see NealWalters.com. I also am trying to do books reviews there over many of the books I read last year and the ones I'm currently reading (I'm talking about fun books, not computer books!)

How to backup master secret?
After installing Biztalk 2004, the Application Event Log says:
The master secret has not been backed up. If you lose the master secret all the information stored in the SSO system will be lost permanently and your systems may fail to work correctly. Please use the SSO admin tools to back up your master secret.
This causes an message in your ApplicationEventLog every 15 (with a source of ENTSSO) minutes until you do the backup.
So how do I backup the "master secret"?
From a command prompt (so you can see any feedback or errors) run the following command:
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Enterprise Single Sign-On\SSOConfig.exe" ?backupsecret mysecret.bak
(Might have to CD (Change-Directory) to the directory above and then just run SSOCONFIG.)
However so far, every time I have run this utility it acts like I have given it a bad argument and spits out the following:
-setdb : set SQL Server and SSO database names
-showdb : show the SQL Server and SSO database names
-createdb : create SSO database
-generatesecret : generate new SSO master secret
-backupsecret : backup current SSO master secret
-restoresecret : restore SSO master secret
-auditlevel : set SSO server audit level
-setssl : set SSL encryption
Seems like this happens when you try to copy/paste from this web page or SDK help into the command prompt window. I suggest just manually typing in the above command.
You will be asked for a password when you backup the master secret. Will need this password if you ever attempt a restore. You will be prompted for a password (it must be 7 characters or more in length). If this is your own computer, and you aren't worried about security, you might create a file called "MySecretPassIsABCDEFG.bak" - then you will never forget the password!
Reference: home.comcast.net/~sdwoodgate/BTS04AdminandSecurity.ppt
Note: The filename is not written to the current directory. A successful backup will write a message to your application event log similar to this:
The master secrets were successfully backed up.
File Name: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Enterprise Single Sign-On\mysecret.bak

I was tasked with basically learning BizTalk (like yesterday) to do a project that has to get done by the end of March. I purchased the only book on the subject right now (Unleashed) and went through the first 5 chapters. I was despairing when I happened upon your web site. I've watched all of the free videos repeatedly while I impatiently wait for my CD which is on the way. You've done a fantastic job. I learned more from you in about two hours than I learned from 5 chapters of my book.
What I like most about your videos is that you cut to the chase. Books tend to be verbose. Sure I'd like to be an expert eventually but right now I just need know ramp up fast. Another thing I like is that your videos don't seem overly rehearsed. Some might find this to be a detractor but I like it. If you make a mistake while doing something, I want to see it because I'm assuredly going to make that same mistake and making mistakes and learning from them is what actually makes someone an expert.
Keep up the good work and thanks.
