We use SCR Tracker. Seems to do the job.

We use Gamma. Very reliable and cost effective.

I'm not really a lizard.....

We migrated away from using cards for the net2. So we use plain blank white cards for everyone's ID, and issue Net2 fobs instead. We can then collect them back in and reissue when people leave. Saved us a fortune in cards.

Schools are a statutory service, so as far as I'm aware? So, they shouldn't be affected?

It is difficult to choose a date for any event I'd imagine, as many areas have their holidays at different times (as has pretty much always been the case). Especially as Academies can set their own term dates entirely.

Good evening everyone. I have now spun up a Rust server for Edugeek members to play. At present it is completely vanilla, though has Oxide installed in case anyone has any requests for plugins. To access the server, the easiest way is to launch Rust, press F1 and type connect 198.244.254.103:28015 There is a discussion channel for the Rust server on the Edugeek Discord server.

Server spec isn't a problem - we just moved to a new host with a Ryzen 7 3800X, 64GB RAM and NVME gen 4 SSD. We could run hundreds of people on it without skipping a beat. View distance increased to 16.

As this pack is a progressive difficulty pack - please liase with others before: a) killing a wither b) killing the ender dragon Doing either of these things increases difficulty for all players.

Server view distance is the standard 10 - we've got an updated server recently, do you guys want the view distance increasing?

Beware of sirens of the sea!!

This server is now offline.

Announcing the next EduGeek Modded Minecraft server Roguelike Adventures and Dungeons 2 Server address: mc.edugeek.net:25566 Dynmap: http://mc.edugeek.net:8192 This is a 1.16.5 Forge modded Minecraft pack. You can download it via the CurseForge App Current pack version: 1.6 NOTE: The client says it is an incompatible FML Mod loader on the server screen - this can be ignored. It will work regardless. As always, to be whitelisted on the server, please visit your Profile on the site and add you Minecraft username to the field there. The server updates the whitelist every 5 minutes. Up to date information is always available via the Discord channel.

I'm going to spin up a new modded Minecraft server soon, and would like some input. The packs on offer are: RLCraft GT New Horizons Roguelike Adventures and Dungeons 2 Valhesia Enhanced Vanilla Please vote for the pack you'd prefer. In the event of a tie, I'll choose one at random.

I the key thing you need to know is the format the connection your ISP is giving you - if it is a fibre link, you'll need a router with a SFP+ port, so you can then get a suitable optical transceiver module to fit it. Zyxel appear to make one device that can handle it, the USG2200, but its a £8800 box. You can 100% get a cheaper solution than that. As you appear to want filtering, firewalling and inter-vlan routing, you're going to want to speak to companies like Sophos, Sonicwall etc... You're looking for some form of USG rather than specifically a router.

I'd recommend going down the S2D route as well, we moved from a traditional "VM servers and separate storage" setup recently, and now have a hyperconverged setup with Hyper-V and S2D on 3 servers. Works great. No need for an external SAN, one less potential bottleneck or single point of failure. My recommendation would be to totally forgo "new" servers. Get 3 refurbished servers from ICT Direct, slap new SSDs in them (ensuring you have a storage controller with the right capabilities) and set them up as I did. We bought 3 servers with dual 28 core CPUs, 192GB RAM in each, and 4 10GbE ports, plus 4x 4TB enterprise SSDs, and HBA modules for the servers, all with 3 year warranties, for less than £10k. More than enough to run our entire Trust.

I think we may need a little more info about the network setup. In the UK, ISPs generally provide a router which terminates on your network, and then, depending on the ISP, the connection either goes into the core switch (this is how it works for us, we have an fibre connection from our ISP router to our HPE Aruba core), the ISP router handles the lan routing (usually smaller schools and more education focused ISPs), or we put our own router in between the switch and the ISP router (basically the first setup, split into 2 devices). How is your connection terminated?

This seems like a great way for 1100 schools to stop using Sims altogether further damaging ESS. A really misguided plan by ESS, I'd say. ESS seems like it really needs new leadership, as it is constantly shooting itself in the foot.

Note - I haven't tested that script, so it may not work, but the concept should work.

So, Ricoh is inserting extra 3s. 393337363735393430 You could convert this with the following javascript in a custom js file I think? And then call that file via ext-device.card-no-converter. function convert(cardNumber) { return extractOddLetters(cardNumber); } const extractOddLetters = (string) => { for (var i = 0; i < string.length; i++) { // If current index is odd if (i % 2 === 1) { // Skip the character continue; } // Otherwise, append the // character new_string += string[i]; } return new_string; } } ;

What readers do you have, and what type of RFID card are you using?

Those who had the amount reduced, have you discussed it with your contact at the DfE? Have they provided an explanation?

Do you have anything in the advanced config "ext-device-card-no-converter" or "ext-device-card-no-regex"? Either on the device, or in the global advanced settings?

We've been a happy Exa customer for quite a number of years here. Very reliable and cost effective.

When you say they will only fund less than half - does this mean they won't fund specific APs? Or are they not funding a lot of the switchgear requested? The scheme covers basically 1 AP per classroom for a site, plus a few for non classroom areas, and then any switchgear needed to run it - but not any switches that don't cover that (so, not gonna cover switches for ICT suites etc...). Plus they cover core switches. What is it they've refused to cover?
