I realised that the migration tool came in an email with a zip attachment. Steps through the 2012 migration tool and also how to do it manually. I too have this to hand also. If you have no luck with capita let either @gomalley or myself know and we will get the zip to you

Are you using exchange? And a gal? I used this ages ago. Not sure if it still works as I am running 2010 and if there is a better way now. I would have thought there would be a group policy or something for it now (maybe there is) https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/6bb9b40f-b794-41ce-93b4-711e77c53607/gal-default-adress-book-gpo

Don't quote me on this but I vaguely recall that in s:\sims\setups there is a sql migration application for 2008 There may also be one to migrate to 2014. Warning if you do upgrade to 2014 you put the database into compatibility mode as there are known issues with sims and 2014 sql. Capita resolution to this is putting it in to compatibility mode. I have documentation from capita when I upgraded to 2012 from 2008. I can email them to you if you wish

I've taken holiday this year to celebrate sysadmin day. (Yeah cos that was the only reason I took holiday[emoji23]) happy sysadmin days y'all

Recently acquired an apple company phone. Never been a big fan of apple and never really had one or used any of their services. However now that I have one I may as well utilise its potential e.g. The free podcasts is something I am interested in that are released on various topics including internet security etc. Can anyone offer any suggestions on good podcasts to download.

You're welcome to have it. Give me a little time to clone it and remove the data out of it then I'll pm it over to you.

Cmdb??? Even I'm struggling there. Content management database??? You're looking for an asset register by the sounds of it. I designed myself a very simple access database that catalogued all the assets in the school. It has a search feature and have begun creating reports for it also. I then walk around the site with a tablet and a barcode reader and zap everything. It's a little rough around the edge but does the job and isn't all that complex I'm happy to share it with you.

Easiest way is to install team viewer or similar You could create a gateway server which would future proof incase you are asked to offer a remote desktop solution to the staff

Click start and type uninstall a program Click on the matching result Look for avg and make sure you have uninstall all modules. Also look for other antivirus software which may also be installed leaving only a vast installed You should only have one Av installed as they tend to get peed off with each other

We have various modules of autodesk installed on some of our more beefier models however not many of our pc have the processing power to run auto desk so looking for suggestions for good cad/cam software that I can deploy as an alternative to run on the weaker pcs Easy deployment preferable eg msi for gp deployment

Ipconfig is a cmd line tool that shows a computers configuration with the network it is connected too. Ipconfig can be used for troubleshooting but I doubt that it will help you much with webpage loading speed. Looking at your screen I am guessing this is a home computer connected to a domestic home network. There can be many reasons for webpage to load slowly and we would need to know more info to help diagnose Firstly am I right in assuming this is a home network connected to an router provided by your service provider eg bt, sky etc Are you experiencing these symptoms only on one computer? Do you experience the symptoms all the time or intermittent? Do you have antivirus and if so how many of them are installed on your computer. If you navigate to fast.com and run a speed test what results do you get That's probably enough questions to get us started 😀

Were you experiencing symptoms before you applied the hotfix. I found that the wmi repository doesn't always corrupt on every improper shutdown. I cant be a 100% certain but I'm sure I came across this hotfix or one similar that didn't work. If you deployed it across your network keep an eye and let us know how you get on with it

Yeah we have that setup and ssm works fine. Do you define a proxy manually or do you use wpad?

Just realised that smoothwall was not part acronym of swgfl. When you get the certificate error. What are the details of the certificate? All details correct?

Hmm I suspect if date and time were out it wouldn't have allowed the domain join. Check your smoothwall hasn't got any old dated rules linking the ip address the pa IP address. You could actually set a static IP address different from the dhcp address to see if that is the case Is the heads pa computer alone in a ou with any group policies that may have set a strict Internet zones Are you sure the certificate is installing by running mmc and adding the certificate snapin

Still use delprof here on shutdown script. delprof.exe /q /I /d:2 Q = quiet I = ignore errors and continue D = number of days inactive It also ignores public and default

Egress here too. I was asked to install it as it was a necessity. It seems we have it installed to tick a box. The staff dont use it despite the hours training i have offered them. I find it a pointless expenditure.

Did you try looking at the http redirect. Click on default website in nav pane Click on http redirect.

Sounds like a redirect maybe which has been set when the first site was installed Under c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ Is there a iisstart.htm In iis click on default web site and click on http redirect. Clear the contents. This is the page that should load if you type http://server Have you got separate sub folders for each one of your sites with its own index.php or htm In iis you should have a application directory for each subfolder. There for http://server/helpdesk and http://server/Sthelpdesk

. Net framework 4.5.2 is a pre req . Are there any errors in the event viewer which may help with either ssm or .net

Not sure I quite get what you are connecting to but if you are connecting to a rdp session you may need to allow port 3389 through your smoothwall to your councils rd server

to be honest for 1000 computers in 1 ou it is probably more time consuming automating it then it would be to drag and drop. granted if you had 1000 computers within a complex ou structure already then I would probably also look to automating it

here is a simple one liner that help moving users from one ou to another Search-ADAccount –AccountDisabled –UsersOnly –SearchBase “OU=sites,DC=domiain,DC=co,DC=uk” | Move-ADObject –TargetPath “OU=Room1,OU=Sites,DC=domain,DC=co,DC=uk” This one liner is to move disabled user accounts out of one ou to another Slightly adapting the searchbase you can target computers that are named like *room1-* in the same way

did changing server name to the ip address in the connect.ini resolve your issue? this will illuminate dns if the problem continues

As a side note, if you are new to the site it may be worth knowing who your sims support is whether it is your lea, capita or another 3rd party. You will be able to get the call open at least whilst you look to resolve it yourself.
