On the the MySites adventure.
I found an Excellent series of postings that explain exactly how to setup/configure the User Profile Service and setup/configure MySites in 2010.

- This is how to setup the user profile service to import profiles into SharePoint
- I had an issue where our FQDN is not the same as our NetBIOS domain name so there was some tweaking I had to do to make this work properly to import our users with the domain\username
Our setup is for machines to join the corp.domain.com and our NetBIOS shortname is domain
When you run the default import you will get corp\username which is incorrect...
You need to first update to the newest CU - I used the December 2011 CU
Then follow the steps outlined here to use PowerShell to enable NetBIOS for UPA

Now, I want to verify that we will only import user profiles that are enabled in AD. We have a policy that allows for accounts to be disable for a period of time prior to their removal from AD and I don't want those accounts in SharePoint.

Thanks Linda - I would have never found this obscure setting on my own!
Now verify the proper domain names are in the user profiles...
On to setup for MySites - again SharePoint George to the Rescue!
