  1. Yes, it's moderated (by you) though.
  2. Aware of that, and couldn't get it to work so have just been going through services manually (We have all services inventoried and how they connect anyway, just some uncertainties like this where it isn't specifically stated). Might just firewall off that port and if it breaks Capita can ruddy fix it
  3. Nothing is flagging up, I just need to confirm if it is or isn't even using LDAP at all. I vaguely recall setting something when it was originally installed but that was years ago and there's nothing in settings to suggest how it gets it's info from AD. The only hint is the documentation clearly stating it needs firewall port 389 open.
  4. Hi, Just auditing any remaining systems we have using unsecure LDAP, and one stickler is Solus 3. Documentation all says it "may need the port open for LDAP" but it all also says "We can't be bothered to write proper documentation for all scenarios because we're too lazy" (or something to that exact effect) so doesn't specify whether it only works on unsecure LDAP or if it's using something else. Can't see anything in settings. Can anyone shed any light?
  5. Such a shame, but certainly a good innings. For all he did though, I still remember him mostly from Mr Jolly Lives Next Door, a comedic masterpiece for the olduns
  6. A good question, surely it's just line 3 in hapconfig.xml? "secureldap="True" ? Edit - just tested, this works as expected.
  7. Tried multiple times without luck, "lack of evidence"
  8. Didn't do anything out of the ordinary, it's immutable so session-time changes are stored on the local machine then wiped at shutdown.
  9. This has just been brought to my attention. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7924631/Briton-four-men-accused-distributing-NINE-MILLION-child-porn-images-trial.html Utterly sickening. It's worth noting that on the day this came out, all members of the Kinge family were removed from Sparklebox's deeds (see companies house)
  10. Our VHD sits on a NAS (SSD) so all the computers just have virtual box itself installed and the virtual machine base files & cache, means you only have to make changes once.
  11. Nothing G-tech makes will ever catch on - their equipment has never been anything more than "find an existing piece of hardware and attach a drill battery to it, then charge prices that'll make Apple users cry".
  12. Unfortunately likely, but there's a high chance that school staff in that list don't want to be public for whatever reason - this is usually true more among support staff and that's where this email is targeted, so I'd say more likely than you'd think! Full names and email addresses as opposed to shortened would likely be worrying for those as it can narrow down a name and a specific location.
  13. Check to make sure internal clients only have your internal server(s) for DNS resolution.
  14. "Aha, so Joe Bloggs, the man with an injunction against me because reasons, is working at Smith School in Smithtown. Now I can continue to maim him with the view to do more". Just because they're staff, doesn't mean they're any less vulnerable in some cases than students who have similar reasons to not be named in public.
  15. This, but be wary that the reboot will have only cured the/a symptom and not the cause, but will give you a clue as to where to start looking for the cause.
  16. Cubase is popular in music teaching but very, very, very unpopular with regards to just about anything else for good reason - performance, reliability and licensing issues are nightmares. We trialled a few and personally liked Reaper a lot.
  17. Took me 3 minutes to prove it was legitmate. yet large LEA level providers still assumed the worse. I despair.
  18. I did spot that on one of the emails I saw
  19. You should be careful of that though, it's not your place to decide what sites people view to that level - safeguarding yes, bias no. People might need viewpoints of, er, "intellectually challenged" rags for their research and school work to perhaps balance against other media sources.
  20. Neither had they bothered to take the time to investigate properly and made an assumption, therefore sending out emails before knowing facts. There's a fair bit of unprofessionalism coming out today.
  21. Maybe, but nothing's perfect - please don't tar Edulink's name in this one! Yes they effectively make money doing what Capita perhaps should (or do, sort of with various addons of their own) but you'd be hard pushed to find a single MIS system out there that ticks all the boxes without some help. It's not a one size fits all world. (Off topic though so let's keep this about this email)
  22. Couldn't recommend Wave9 highly enough, excellent service, great support (haven't needed it much but install and random queries resolved really quickly) and the Sophos box is lovely.
  23. It's more likely anyone that has had an account, SupportNet, MyAccount etc so regardless of custom it's likely to be the majority of SIMS schools business managers, data/sims managers, IT teams etc. I'm enjoying the irony of the popup about disclosing PII when you visit their forum article on this https://support.capitasoftware.com/csm?id=community_question&sys_id=73ac59e0db2e8850bee14872ba9619c6
  24. Depends on the format of the addresses, [email protected] for instance would be full personal data and could be used to locate a person to a place of employment, in itself dangerous. They're in for a fine (or do Capita do the fining on ICO's behalf? How'd that work? )
  25. Same email, but nothing about Google here. The incident link we have is https://support.capitasoftware.com/incident.do?sys_id=7773d960dbe60450003c4872ba96194c&sysparm_stack=incident_list.do?sysparm_query=active=true The code all looks correct, all forwarding and scripts as they should be.
