Give non admins MSG.EXE Access? Net send

[CREATISH]

We don't have anything like this, teachers log on to the computer in the room they are timetabled (teachers move rooms quite often), first things they open are iSAMS and Outlook Web, then do their register then teach. New emails pop up the little card and make a bing noise.

We use ISAMS aswell, Bing noise? Do they use IE?

 

Ideally yes they would come in and do the register and open their email but the reality is most don't, they come in and start teaching, very unprofessional and my admin team should really come down on them with warnings rather than allow it. I'm only IT so I can't really tell them to do so.

 

Noticed ISAMS have recently changed there password requirement to 12 letter passwords -.-

 

 

Something I toyed with is chrome auto starting from boot which opens outlook and ISAMS, however, it takes a good 15-20 seconds to do this by which time 70% of the have opened a browser which would be annoying for another one to open.

A small, easy to config en mass, program to check for email would be great.

 

Otherwise could just set staff Chrome home page tab to open OWA with auto login.

 

takes good 15-20 seconds, by which time 80% good staff opened a browser already and then another opens, which is a sure way to annoy them.

No, chrome. New emails in OWA in chrome and the tab makes a noise.

 

You could always set the startup pages for the browsers to iSAMS and Outlook in group policy for the staff OU, that way when they open a browser they get those 2 tabs by default.

I did try this, with most staff used to having desktop shortcuts, not sure how this behaves when they click on the link, will give it a try on one machine, seems easier option then remove the shortcuts to them seperatly and just have chrome shortcut
