Im thinking windows server will have the windows server drivers installed but not the XP drivers If you right click on the printer on the server, click properties then on the Sharing Tab, click Additional Drivers... make sure there are some drivers in there for XP

Setting up RADIUS is easy enough, but you may wish to investigate bandwidth first before the investment. 30 wireless clients in one area is going to be slowwww even with the latest 802.1n on 5Ghz.

You can create a software restriction policy in your GPO. then disallow e:\*.* f:\*.* g:\*.* then allow e:\autorun.exe or whatever you need

It sounds like driver issues to me

I vote robocopy... although we have it set up here so that the log on script detects the ip address and if it is a school ip-address it syncs everything up with a local folder c:\%username%\ and then if its an external address it re-directs my documents to the local drive. This way the member of staff has nothing to worry about, it just works.

I have two VLANs set up.... VLAN (117) no DHCP or ip forwarding VLAN (100) ip forwarding to 10.100.0.1 255.255.252.0 I have tagged my port (C19) on 100 and on 117 I need to access both VLANs but am unable to do so... I think this may be to do with the route table??? I have static address of 10.100.1.165 (255.255.252.0) and also 10.100.13.206 (255.255.255.240) I can access VLAN 100 fine, but cant see anything on 117 Please does anyone have any idea why? I have tried to access the 117 server (10.100.13.200) by doing this.. to no avail! route add 10.100.13.200 MASK 255.255.255.255 10.100.13.206 METRIC 1 IF 1

Just stick all unwanted equipment in a room, leave door open over lunch time, then when you come back all has disposed of itself. Don't think this method will work if your school has respectable students, but in our school I am sure a rule in the school hand book says... If it ain't nailed down, a sixth former will pinch it.

After feedback from teachers, I have improved the booking system as per the screenshot - should be able to finish off documentation and release later this week to the public - if anyone wishes to have a copy let me know.

Nah, what I need is more competant teachers - when they can turn the computers on, I will then worry about getting content onto the net... baby steps!

Used Moodle for a while here, then we discovered ATutor (http://www.atutor.ca) same idea as moodle, but much much better interface. If you liked moodle you will love ATutor.

It needs a bit of tidying up - and documentation needs to be created fully - i.e guide on how to use the Nova-T/Sims import bit. But as soon as it is finished I will upload all for you guys to see/use. Has anyone tried to get a username/password for the SQL server for the SIMS database? I assume they will tell us to bugger off but would be handy to automate the import function so that the timetables/room info is up to date at all times.

I have just finished the booking system at our School. The timetable is hard coded at the moment, but I am in the process of moving it over to the SQLserver database. If anyone is instrested I have attached a screenshot.

Its been a while since I have done any of this but I did have a solution. Scenario: I wanted to restrict the computers in the library from being used before school - i.e there was no supervision and the kids would cause havok in there. Resolution: Using WSH as a log on script I simple checked the computer name, and the current time, and if the time was within the boundary I simple executed the api to force log off - that way windows would let anyone log on, but if that computer was in my "naughty" list then the script would automatically kick them off. Its not too difficult - a quick google will sort you out. If you do want to try this and get stuck I am sure I can probably dig up something to help you out.
