    So, after looking at this, it looks like I have a couple of rogue PC's that are downloading from this domain. Very strange considering they are the same software image as the rest. I've taken off the bandwidth throttle and they not downloading any more ! I did fiddle with my WSUS server. Wonder if that did it ?

    I use these Xenta Lightning to USB cable 1.5M Green - Ebuyer They're not cheap but they're pretty indestructible. Not had any broken ones in a year.

    £4 - 500 ?? Mine cost me a grand for 5 days inc tests. I already had a theory and CBT too !!

    Hhhhm. I dont. I'm looking at a brand new deployed laptop, same image as the others. Activation screen says... 'Product unlicensed. Contact your system admin' Can't be C2R then. EDIT: I might be barking up the wrong tree here fellas.

    OK. Thanks for that. How do I determine whether I have the click to run config full stop. Today is the first time I've ever heard of it! As I originally posted, these up date only started hammering my connection last week. We've been running Office 2013 for a year or two.

    This click to run is a pain! I've installed the admx for GPO for Office 2013.... So I presume if I push out updates via WSUS, the server path is the same as Windows updates... http://myserver:8530

    Good info. Cheers @Arthur. Top bandwidth machines look like they're all running Office 2013. I didn't deploy Office 2013 from an .msi. It was installed from an original disc then deployed via a WDS image. I'll have a look at the Office 2013 admx. See if the setting is the same.

    Not quite sure which report has the protocol in it........ Funnily, Looking at the bandwidth graphs over the last week, it wasn't hammering the 'net on Saturday or Sunday! Only Friday and today ???? Not before. Hhhmmmm.

    We're about half half with Office 2010 and 2013 across about 250 PC's and about 100 OWA on tablets/phones. Never seen this amount of bandwidth before from this domain.

    I have a domain using up a huge amount of bandwidth on our network. officecdn.microsoft.com.edgesuite.net It appears to be a genuine Microsoft update site by the looks of it but its used nearly 150GB data in the last 24hrs. So far I've put a heavy bandwidth throttle on it via our Smoothwall. Its only started happening in the last couple of working days. Has anyone seen this before ? Cheers in advance

    If you havent already got it, basically what you need are: Supported networked copiers with touch display. Papercut/whatever installed on your print server Print client on your PC's We get our PaperCut via our photocopier company - this includes product support and upgrades. We also have a Mac mini running a 2nd PaperCut server for Ipads / Apple devices. I'd advise that a good time to implement managed printing is when your copiers come up for renewal.

    Theres some good Panasonic ones with a integrated USB interface that are quite cheap.

    Yep. Its IE only

    Have a look here @TwistedHelixis Another guy had a DNS problem with the same scenario as yours. I think this sorted it for him. http://www.edugeek.net/forums/windows-7/165365-some-clients-not-updating-dns-records.html
  15. mikkydoos
    @TwistedHelixis Either way works. I personally would leave it like you have it. The others may disagree. If it ain't bust, don't fix it - unless you're getting poor DNS speeds. (After reading it up) some say don't use a 127.0.0.1 address, use a proper IP. Try both ways... Run dcdiag /test:dns See if you get any issues. These are mine on DC1 ---> Reverse them for DC2... they work a treat.

    @dry You've earned your salary this week m8. Excellent work that man ! <----- (thats a plum) When the plum tin is empty .... Hey Presto.... a new pencil tub !!
  17. mikkydoos
    Hmm.. Now I'm wondering whether I should be using the adapters IP address or 127.0.0.1 for loopback - whether it is primary / secondary or whatever.

    Are u following me lol. Quiet day at the office too ?

    This is true. Just checked the reload time
  20. mikkydoos
    What, peaches ??
  21. mikkydoos
    They say it's to prevent islanding. I think it means that records could become out of sync between DNS servers. Out of interest I just created a record on DC1 and it took a while for it to replicate on DC2. The same for deleting it. I had to reload the zone to get it to pick up the new record. That's not right is it? Surely it should replicate like SYSVOL and update immediately ??

    Oh, always. They're the most brilliant company to ever exist. My system never ever goes wrong with Microsoft products on it.
  23. mikkydoos
    Indeed. As @Davit2005 says.. It is illogical. I just stated its the way MS recommend it is done. Thats all. Its to prevent replication issues I think I recall.
  24. mikkydoos
    @TwistedHelixis You've got it set up correctly. Thats the way MS say to do it. EDIT: Here.... http://serverfault.com/questions/394804/what-should-the-order-of-dns-servers-be-for-an-ad-domain-controller-and-why
