  1. scenario 1 looks good for me, depending on how you would What about backup? also what about box2 vm2 , would you have this backup done by hyper v replication ? or snapshots ? or would you a cluster sims SQL server?
  2. backups are only good if they are restored and tested, sounds like yoour going to need some downtime and wait for the restore to happen. It would be worth flagging this up with whomever is project managing the college merger, are you responsible for the ICT as a whole ?
  3. can you upload an infected file to Jotti's malware scan once uploaded you can see what the virus is called and make a plan of action and who has the best software to remove it. i would not believe the line "this is a zero day attack " , IMO it is sophos that is just not up to catching it / removing it.
  4. yes there are switches to change the profile , for example we use "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --allow-no-sandbox-job you could try Solution Google seem to have created their own variables rather than using the standard Windows environmental variables. The current list of Chrome variables on Windows includes: %APPDATA% = ${roaming_app_data} %LOCALAPPDATA% = ${local_app_data} %USERNAME% = ${user_name} %COMPUTERNAME% = ${machine_name} %USERPROFILE% = ${profile} %PROGRAMFILES% = ${program_files} %WINDIR% = ${windows} Other variables: ${documents} – The “Documents” folder for the current user. (“C:\Users\Administrator\Documents”) ${global_app_data} – The system-wide Application Data folder. (“C:\AppData”) So for example, to store Chrome’s user data in the roaming application data section of users profiles, I set the UserDataDir policy path to: ${roaming_app_data}\Google\Chrome\User Data tags: Google Chrome
  5. i have and its sooooo sloooow its not useable
  6. lol sorry , 3 hours sleep form looking after a 5 week old baby i just understand what ive put lol. cable wand is the way to go then :-) , can you borrow one? (feeder school?)
  7. what switches do you have ? i would plug a laptop in and note the mac address and get on these switches to find out what port the mac address is paired with ( i think this can only be done on HP procurve and cisco's)
  8. what raid ? what disks? i would download a benchmark / IO tester
  9. whats the hardware its on? VM ?
  10. illegal but can be done , if you do it the normal way it's soooo slow but there are pre-configured Vm's out there you can download into hyper-v or ESXi
  11. just rang and it seems the whole of the VERYPC sales team are in a meeting all morning
  12. RE: Intersteller I had this problem , i am not hard of hearing but hate it when characters mumble, When they do i normally turn up my surround sound to max but this was in the cinema, it was so bad after the movie the friend i saw it with was confused about certain parts , to which i had to repeat " did you not hear it when he said x , y , z " etc The movie let me down abit to be honest , the first hour of the 2hr50mins film is on the farm. ending: some may find laughable, if you have no patience this really isn't a film for you.
  13. Does any supplier have the Epson EB-X20 in stock please?
  14. sounds strange but trying using the AP's at floor level and see if that fixes the problem. I have seen steels in buildings act like a faraday cage and the wireless "mushroom" signal gets disrupted.
  15. Don't know the url but got this today from the Lea smoothwall Never normally have a problem
  16. I don't believe you can do anything unless you have managed switched , the unmanned ones have no intelligence over storm handling or spanning tree , I know that's not helpful or what you wanted to hear . Perhaps ask the powers that be about upgrading them ? They should listen to you as It's quite serious if a student could bring down the whole school by simply plugging in a cable wrong
  17. do you share your external IP with other schools? Enable SMTP logging and review the logs

    PXE boot

    lets look at method of elimination :- try a different pc to PXE boot with? does the port on the switch require 802.1x ? is it in the correct VLAN? is the NIC enabled with PXE in bios?
  19. tesla can you do the same for the word video? , does this mean you have stolen my entry :-)
  20. [Video] 4g killed the [radio store] internet cafe
  21. KArl , sorry to hijack this thread but have you had any problems recently? I have heard alot of users cannot login this week
  22. i enjoy sci fi so , transcendence, enders game ,
  23. IDEA's come to mind: 1) VPN? 2) VLAN HOPPING? 3) modify ACL?
