Our Sixth Form are putting on a performance of We Will Rock You... it's actually pretty damn good (although I am biased) they've got a live band in to do al the music who are fantastic also It's good to see that the newer generation have been bought up to appreciate true quality in music not like as synaesthesia eluded too...

Sorry, I know i shouldn't but... LOL!!!

From the spiceworks website: Simple Script to Enable DHCP on Network adapters - Script Center - Spiceworks Community The script is a VBS Script ' Enable DHCP strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _ & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colNetAdapters = objWMIService.ExecQuery _ ("Select * from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration where IPEnabled=TRUE") For Each objNetAdapter In colNetAdapters errEnable = objNetAdapter.EnableDHCP() Next

We have a policy that students should only be logged in to one place at a time, therefore, logging where and when they logged on is necessary (we wrote our own app to do this, but HAP+'s Logon tracker does just as good a job - if not better ) I do agree though, that logins externally could be tracked also - as simple as who accessed what at what time, the interface is pretty much already there with the logon tracker, I can't imagine it would be too much to include an external logon to this it would be good to see this functionality included.

If my c#/web stuff was anywhere near decent I would but as ir said before I'm crap at web and code in vb.net which I know is not a massive stretch to change to c# but I wouldn't want to risk my relative noobishness on it quite just yet lol

Thanks for that nick, shame about the client but can understand why you have chosen this route. Thanks again for your work on this and I'm glad to see that hap+ is progressing As an aside and I'm not sure how feasible this would be, we see a lot on here with issues with altering the config file mainly to setup the ldap settings etc, I know you had the config tool but was wondering whether it would be worth seeing if moving it to a webpage based system would help especially with troubleshooting. IMHO that would help with setup... Don't know thinking out loud Mark

That's the one although I think the £10 may be a typo think it may be £100 but don't quote me on that Mark

Also nick, I read on your blog about a home client... Any news on this? Thanks

I am presuming you are logging in with the correct Username and Password? May be worth a reboot of both your phone and Spiceworks install... Shot in the dark... your phone is not being blocked by your firewall, I saw this happen and had to create a rule in our ISA server to allow the phone data through (also had to give the phones a static IP)

Are you getting any particular error messages? Also have you updated your Spiceworks install to the latest version, currently 5.0.62863 Mark

Just out of interest what issues are you having with sophos?

From what I've been told, you don't need to use new Sid at all especially with win7 it will break it... Joining the domain gives the computer a unique Id and should not affect any other computer... We dropped newsid from our post ghost procedures in the latter part of 2010 and we have been working fine without it at all HTH

mmmmmmmmm

No problem

It is a group that all your students will be a member of. For Example, our student group name is simply called pupils

How did you get on Little-Miss??

OK, Firstly, the adusername field should be in the format DOMAIN\USERNAME - using groups will not work. As stated in previous posts you may use a specific user that has been delegated the appropriate permissions. As you are not using RM you can remove the {0} and OU={0} tags these are for RM systems only. As Nick has stated you will also need a Pupil Group name For example: > In the Allow Users Tag you may wish to change this to a domain group that will be able to use HAP For Example: Try these options first to test Regards, Mark

Will do Little-Miss Enjoy

Agreed Nephilim I'm close enough (to Brum anyways) to maybe pop over one evening if I get let out early enough.

*Places fingers to head and shuts eyes* Nope... Sorry my Jedi Mind powers don't work from this distance

I know how you feel lol It's not a job that can be done in one evening although the initial installs take only a few minutes

If your CURRIC1 doesn't have WINS this may be the base of your issue. I would suggest installing WINS on CURRICSVR1 and setting both 3 and 1 to be a replication partners. This should replicate the entries across to the new server. Once this is up and replicating properly you will more than likely need to alter your DHCP settings to use the new WINS address (namely CURRICSVR1) and also alter any static Addresses that you may have. Again once you are confident that all the machines have moved (give it a few days) you can then turn off WINS on the old server. HTH

it does not list automatically you have to filter the results... Right Click Active Registations and select Display records, then click Find Now

Shot in the dark but your CURRICSVR3 does not run WINS, if your domain is looking for a netbios name that may be the issue...

Just noticed the ICT mention towards the end of the piece
