As previously mentioned, GAMADV-XT3 will do this, or you can get a list of the IDs and then feed a CSV file.

It's just becoming too commercialised this holiday. It's lost it's true meaning. I mean look: Ed Baubles.

Good Providers for 1Gb line - Builtin DDOS
paulkerton replied to 2097's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
They don't provide line only services, last time I spoke to them. You had to take all of the additionals they bundled and weren't able to unbundle anything. -
Well, that's a welcome surprise. I would be very surprised if the investigation did not rule against them, but let's see!

@Wave9_Lee will be able to help you I'd recommend against that particular company myself. -
And where was the bag left? On Oblivion at Alton Towers?!

Ahhh, wetware bugs!

Where you off to? Arbor? Bromcom? iSAMS?

Yes! You absolutely do. You're asking for trouble if not. Do you have them on an SSID that is segmented away from the rest of the network? They should be treated as guest wi-fi, on a sub-net from the rest of your school devices, throttled and port limited to allow them only to access the web, essentially. You don't want a guest device appearing on your network and then happily torrenting away. I would also consider guest access controls, so they need to login with a Google/Facebook/Apple login for an access token... or make access tokens available to collect from somewhere/sent via SMS.

Change rule 3 of the jobs forum to *require* a salary range?
paulkerton replied to pete's topic in Comments and Suggestions
Personally, if jobs aren't advertised with salaries I'm fine with that. If they won't disclose it when you request it on applying though, then its not work pursuing. -
Prevent Chromebooks from sleeping on lid close?
paulkerton replied to simpsonj's topic in How do you do....it?
We have devices set to log out when lid closes. Another step that makes them not want to bother closing the lid, tbh! -
We use Uniflow online with Canon machines. Works very well for us, just needs the extension on the Chromebooks and off we go! Ultimately Uniflow is Canon's software, so from one aspect you have a single place of failure. If you have a problem with Papercut on a Canon device they can easily start pointing fingers at each other as to whose responsibility it is.

Reviving this. We're starting to see this now when we changed from the erase local data option for Chrome 97. Chrome 99 seems to be the culprit!

Well that is a horrible way to do it.

Displaying Student Medical Information
paulkerton replied to paulkerton's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
Yup the - "I want to make my mark" types who ends up upsetting everyone. The next thing we've been told is a weekly "students with allergies" quiz. That won't go! -
Displaying Student Medical Information
paulkerton replied to paulkerton's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
Well, thats the point. It's delegated work. The decision has been made by experts in their field who have said no, and shes trying to fight that. Which is why I'm asking here for people's opinion on it so I can get a wider view point. The information is already on our MIS and we've made an offer to make it available on our staff portal using the live data from the MIS, so hopefully that placates it. -
Displaying Student Medical Information
paulkerton replied to paulkerton's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
and herein lies a problem - we don't have staff only areas like that. Also our MIS can flag these things up in registers, so I think that is as detailed as they need to get myself. They get a flag to remind them every time they open a register. -

You need to take this back to SLT and log a grievance, quite frankly.

Displaying Student Medical Information
paulkerton replied to paulkerton's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
Have already done so. She still seems determined though, but thankfully anyone who can grant this access to data to make it possible has nixed it. So hopefully it's done for. -
Hi all, So. Big discussion currently happening regarding putting student medical information on posters and putting them in office spaces (attached to classrooms) or management office spaces also. Several of us are insistent that this doesn't happen as its protected category data and a breach would be a disaster. The rooms could easily be left unlocked (and would be unlocked, locking it constantly would be seen as inconvenient) and students can easily access them, and several other issues - but we have a new safeguarding officer who is refusing to take no as an answer and is trying to build an alliance of people who agree with her... Shes saying we could get parent consent too. She is very vague about updating them, etc... I'm insisiting it won't happen, but what do others think? Should we do it?

Do you have 1 to 1 devices using iPads and/or Chromebooks?
paulkerton replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in General Chat
I used to commute it daily!
