just remembered that on holiday when i was a kid, i met the chuckle brothers in scarborough. got a signed photo as well (oh the shame of it)!!

i have met derren brown. i was on stage with him and had a game of 20 questions, only lasted 3 !!! oh well, got his autograph for taking part.

why would they confiscate a childs police helmet? and also snow shoes?

that is what i will look like in a few years of thing carry on the same wa here

@ alexanger i have put the mandatory on a network share with read access. i have changed it from .dat to .man am i right in think that if i redirect the desktop to the mandatory profile folder\desktop this will put all the folders / shortcuts on the desktop? also when i add the path to the profile for a test user, it defaults the my documents to the local machine\documents and settings folder. am i missing something else

it is a desktop with set shortcuts so that user can't change it

we are in the process of moving away from winsuite to a mandatory desktop. we are using using folder redirection on user my documents and app data. these both work. the issue is adding the mandatory desktop to the users account. i have followed microsoft documentation on how to create it and renaming the ntuser.dat to ntuser.man. i have added it into the user properties, but this doesn't work. i have also tried to add it into the desktop part of the folder redirection in GPO. this still doesn't work. i have look through countless forums on the net and they all say it shoould work, but it doesn't. Please help

don't feel guilty about free food. im on a diet and my lunch consisted of: 1 boiled egg, chunck of cheese and 2 slices of corned beef. im soooooooooo hungry

our list is growing every day. so far it is: rebuild open filer (new hardware / software) install and setup a wiki for staff re-cable main cabinates test UPS's sort out AD/Policies/Machines remove Winsuite / test mandatory desktop build image for 5 new laptops more to follow no doubt

Well it help ferarri and who is in charge of the FIA?

we bought a pack of 5 a while ago and it workout at about £10 each. did some searching and found the following from google Promethean Activpen (5 pack) Primary/Studio we inform staff that if they go missing, then they have to pay for them out of their budgets. this has worked and none have gone missing since. for smartboards i find that a post-it note is good to cover the sensors. remove it and draw to your heart content.

good chuckle for monday morning.

creese - we haven't tried that but will do. sted - it has the fqdn as it goes from the curriculum to the admin. we have checked the connect.ini file and all in there is as it should be.

we are having issues with SIMs. All users on the curriculum network are getting the Reason 0 error when they try to log into SIMs during lesson times. all of the users on the admin network (this is where SIMs is installed) are unafected. we have tried re-installing SIMs, installing it on a new machine, checking permissions and connect.ini and also that staff are using the correct login details. this problem isn't isolated to one area of the network, it is on random machines around the school (even my machine). i have been on capita's site and found a knowledge base but we have checked out a few of them and this doesn't seem to have worked.

oh charlie brown, when will you learn

i recently aquired a 3rd screen. now i am king of the land. i have wall brackets for 2 more but i need another graphins card for that.

brillient. most of our users don't bother reading the user agreement when they got there new laptop. maybe i can sneek something in and see if anyone notices it.

i think i will put this in an e-mail to all of our staff. he discribes it such a way that makes it easy to understand (even for teachers)

we have liecenced radios with a dedicated channel for IT. these work well and provide radio coverage throughout the school. which means there is no where to hide and work quietly

i have a creative zen x-fi 16gb and it is brill. does everything an itouch / iphone does, but is about £60 cheaper.

That was a classic. just what i need for a monday morning when there are no kids in school. only in liverpool could you get answers like that.
