Rep Power: 24 | Hi i'm John, I work for an independant school in North Craven, North Yorkshire. Worked there for just over 16 months, prior to that, I spent 2 years working for an LEA school 2 minutes down the road. I also do consultancy work for a couple of the local LEA primary schools, with one just agreed to undertake a £7K IT refurb at Easter. |

Rep Power: 7 | Hello, My name is Graeme, i'm the assistant network manager for a pretty hefty network now. I have pretty much brought it from Windows 98 to WinXP office 2003, exchange 2003, everywhere. With loads of clever group policies. I also have setup veritas backup 9, symantec ghost, altiris 5.5. Recently just setup an IIS6 php mysql server with joomla cms, phpbb2 (with ldap / active directory authentication) and moodle (with ldap / active directory authentication) This site looks good, If I hadn't found it, (after icttechnician.com) I would have setup my own anyway Graeme |

Blog Entries: 1 Rep Power: 55 | Original? Nah ... IIRC the original was a BB used by BBN and 2 of the Unis they were hooking up. Then again, they created ARPANet so they had the power to set things the way they wanted ... RFCs came out of the need to share information between groups, to create and develop standards, and not forgetting the plain good old fashioned need to communicate in a friendly manner. Or just have a bit of plain fun :-) I refer the honourable collective to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1925.txt Just think how different all the ineternet might have been if the guys starting it all hadn't wanted to play so nicely. |

Blog Entries: 1 Rep Power: 55 | Just so people know I dropped Russ off at the train station in Coventry after a focus group session at BECTa. If anyone has not had the pleasure of driving around Coventry in the dark I can honestly say that zen driving does not work. Neither does presuming that the sign post with the little train symbol actually points to the train station. In fact it is more likely to point to a Park and Ride for the station instead ... We did make it though ... eventually. |

Rep Power: 0 | Hi all, Introductions. I am the Network Manager @ St Edmund's School in Portsmouth. We are a large secondary school with 10 servers and 350 laptops and computers about 60 other peripherals, 1000 users and only 2 of us to support this lot. As can be expected we get very stressed with the workload which is massive. Great site and very informative. |
