We already have mail.xxxxxx already pointing to the external IP address of the exchange server for OWA, and the external IP addresses will be following us.

Sorry for being dumb... brains foggy from first day back How would I do that?

Hi We are currently on Nottinghamshire County Councils 1C1N, and moving over to their new Virgin provided system. Currently our email is relayed through their email filtering solution (Mail Marshall) but this is being turned off in late September. With that we need to sort ourselves the setup of exchange. Unfortunatly I have been off sick for the last 3 months (wasnt expecting so long), and so now against the wall abit. Currently we have our to domain names MX records pointing to mailmarshall clw.notts.sch.uk and clwacademy.co.uk both have MX records as below Mx01.nottscc.gov.uk 46.18.178.35 Mx02.nottscc.gov.uk 46.18.178.36 And exchange is set to relay via relay.nottscc.gov.uk Is it a case of getting the MX records to point to the external IP address of of server, and changing the option in exchange to "Use Domain name system "MX" records to roue mail automatically"?

Just one last call before the weekend (I go into hospital myself so gonna be away from Edugeek after tomorrow for a while) Thanks to those that have already sponsored.

Cancelled 2 shows I actually liked, Forever and Stalker Glad Blacklist has been renewed

That has surprised me!

Hi All My wife is doing her fourth race for life in June. As a survivor of Cervical Cancer it’s close to our hearts. If any of you feel you could donate to Cancer Research, it would be gratefully appreciated. https://www.justgiving.com/emmaparr79/

Heard the phrase "On your 6" say in a dogfight?

Im a saddo (and seems my 9yr old stepdaughter is to now - refers to it as our "old people program") and watch Casualty... so spill :-)

Can't see it making Season 2. I thought CSI:Miami got bad towards the end, but Cyber is just hilarious.

RM's reponse once we knew it was a CC4 issue. On further investigation on issues reported for Dropbox, I could understand the following findings were made. Sorry to inform you that these application are not supported on CC4 Windows7. 1. Windows 7: The applications are not compatible with CC4 Windows 7. Because in CC4 Windows 7, the Application Data folder is moved to network drive and the Dropbox app requires "Application Data" folder to be on Local drive for Windows 7. 2. Windows 8.1: The application requires the sync location to be on the local drive (default location: C:\Users\[user name]\Dropbox) hence the sync folder cannot be accessed while logged in as a restricted user. The app will work with full functionality for Admin users on a Windows 8.1 workstation. Many thanks, Dany

How abouts doing a boot script (pre-login)? Got a script to clean local profiles I want to run on student laptops.

We seem to have this alot. Reset profiles (CC4) resolves most, but a real PITA to manage. On CC3 on pupil laptops we had scripts to delete profiles on startup excluding ones that needed to stay. Wondering if could do a similar thing on CC4.

Hehe just tried this :-)

Me: Main is an iiyama P1905s and 2nd display a iiyama E2482HS

You got any docs you worked from that I could read?

How was the process to migrate over to Ubuntu? We have been Windows based for years, runs okay most of the time, but occasionally it just cant cope. I have considered moving over to Linux, but with site atm being over 110GB, not sure how easy it would be.

This has been used by an IT teacher for years, its brilliant. We have all been there, just wanting to eat our lunch and constantly interrupted.

Same here, first day is Good Friday, but closed the next 2 weeks also.

Be interested in this, as had them come in, and are under consideration.

Watched "Sabotage" last night. Brutal at times.

Yep ignore BMI. As mentioned earlier (I think) in tread, I have achalasia, and having dropped from 16.5st (5ft7) to then about 12st, not being able to eat/drink much if anything, my then GP, having looked at charts said I'm still a fatty (not her exact words), and so wouldn't help with any supplements. I'm now at about 10.5st, and effectively skin and bone in places, lost lots of muscle, but according to BMI, Im just about right. I however don't look or feel right. As @witch has said, BMI don't take into account the build of body etc.

Its our "If we was able to move to" dream. However, don't see much chance of a job coming up. When was younger, I was fortunate to got 2-3 times a year. Stopping in one of my favorite places (Carbis Bay), last couple holidays have been in Perranporth.

I'm the opposite, this May going away for first proper Family Holiday with my Wife and Step-daughter. Had a couple of weekends in Cromer staying at friends since wedding in October, but this will be the first for just us 3. Cornwall here we come :-)
