Recent issues with Smoothwall and Google Services

[MrFlipindibo]

Howdy!! Are any Smoothwall schools experiencing issues recently with Google Applications and Services? For example Google Drive and signing into Chromebooks?

 

It appears to be decrypt and inspect or interception certificate related and possible due to a change at the Google end.

 

TIA.

Yes, I was trying to provision a bunch of new Chromebooks but couldn't get it to work. I gave up in the end and went to another site.

 

Any info on what I need to tell our LA as they control our Smoothwall systems?

Your LA will need to add the school to the rule for 'Connect for Chromebooks' as a general rule of thumb. There does appear to be further issues this past week or so for locations already in this rule, but I am not sure what the issue is or how I can resolve this. I am hoping for some guidance on this. Exempting the red websites doesn't resolve the problem but disabling D&I does.
