  1. Thats not much surely? - Probs just looks like it where I typed in the list of file I updated that you can use and look at...... Thats only - One front cover for the Policys - One front cover for the Prospectus (using the same design as the Policy one) - One Background image/border for the Prospectus ........ or a whole new design for the Prospectus So thats three things, surly someone can do this? pretty please
  2. Been told to renew our website, wanted to do this anyway Now I have been given the latest school policies to be uploaded. I have looked at the them and they look be bit out dated for design wise. I look at a Microsoft Guide eariler and saw a design I would like to use on each of the front page of each policy document. Only problem being is that this graphic as a image of two people on ther, wondering if anyone could eithier remove this, or make a similar design? Also if anyone is up to the job, could someone try and update our Prospectus with a similar design? I have a link below for the following files (Edugeek uploads was not working for me) - 1 Of Our Update Policy Documents (Might help if you can think of a better design?) - 2x School Logos (One Gold, One Black, whaterver colour you think is better) - 1x Vector Of New School Logo (Havent used this anywhere yet, probs best to you this one) - Image file for the design I want used - Prospectus (Another reason this one needs doing is we are not a School anymore, and there is a image file for each page, saying The Ockendon Academy, hense not easy to change because its part of the image) http://cid-1fd7725e149f2965.skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?resid=1FD7725E149F2965!247 Many Thanks In Advance
  3. I really like the look for Frog VLE, very expensive through, our school wouldnt pay it, big shame! So it seems they want an eportflio system, and gusse what! Frog has that feature!
  4. We have lots of old laptops and probs around 120 computers, but if you want any it would have to be collected If intrested i'll what out the specs for you
  5. Ok that was the problem! Would you recommend to put a star at the end of the proxy expection as well? *theockendonacademy.com* yes or no?
  6. Thanks for that guys TBH after thinking a while, I can't remember if I ever typed the address without the www externally. I thought of doing a test (turn off proxy on my computer, proxy is from the council) It seems to work without the proxy So somehow the proxy is blocking this The expections we have currentlly set is this *.theockendonacademy.com What do I need to change? at a gusse change it to *theockendonacademy.com or would that not work, im thinking that as http://theockendon..... doesnt have a dot, the proxy still goes to this address Also is it best to put a star at the end of the proxy expection? So it would be *theockendonacademy.com*
  7. Any ideas guys? Its annoying plus I want to setup Wordpress multi-site, and apprentlly if you use ie http://www.theockendonacadem.com/ when setting it up, all you other blogs would have http//subdomain.http://www.theockendonacademy.com, so I need to setup using this link http://theockendonacademy.com but I get errors....... ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL:http://theockendonacademy.com/ The following error was encountered: Connection to 85.12.92.86 Failed The system returned: (111) Connection refused The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again. Your cache administrator is root. Generated Mon, 23 May 2011 08:48:41 GMT by t99cb (squid/2.7.STABLE6) Would this be the councils end? Something related to our server iis/dns setup? Something related to our domain name provider setup? (123reg) havent included the subdomain and mail records, im gussing they have nothing to do with this problem 123reg Config @ - 85.12.92.86 (A Record)- Note this is not our exchange IP Address! (we have a CNAME record for our exchange under the MX Records part) * - 85.12.92.86 (A Record) www - www.ockendon.thurrock.e2bn.org. (CNAME Record) Our internal DNS Config zone = theockendonacademy.com www - 10.146.67.150 * - 10.146.67.150 same as parent folder - 10.146.67.150
  8. Our webserver is internal (IIS) Ok still not working Our webserver is called WebServer - It as the IP address or 10.146.67.150. There of course is a A record for this in the DNS (Which I have made it a static one) I have now since made a alias record called wpad. I setup this on our active directory domain (ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk) not our website domain I then went into DHCP and changed the 252 record for wpad to the following string value http://wpad.ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk/wpad.dat I then used this command on one of the DNS servers to unblock wpad - dnscmd /config /globalqueryblocklist Now when I paste (http://wpad.ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk/wpad.dat) into the web browser I get this message Unable to determine IP address from host name for wpad.ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk But if I ping wpad.ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk it finds the right IP address for the server Any ideas?
  9. My LG LED TV came with one!
  10. Hi there mat Your not the first person thats said that (look on the forum and the internet) But im not sure how to do that we have our internet site domain www.theockendonacademy.com we also have our internal domain ockendon.thurrock.sch.uk Where to you put the alias (is that the correct record?) In the internal domain dns zone, or the external dns zone? Never been brillant at DNS..... Would like our moodle site www.theockendonacademy.com/moodle as a subdomain if I knew how to set it up (vle.theockendonacademy.com)
  11. Yep we have got the box ticked for "Automatically Detect Settings" Seems after more test 2/4 computers as worked in our office We didnt test it for long through, forgot to check if our internal sites worked, ie mail, eportal
  12. Hi there guys I have created a wpad file and named it wpad.dat as required. Saved this on our webserver. Then put the settings for this in DHCP Settings = 252, named wpad, string = http://www.theockendonacademy.com/wpad.dat This is what is inside our wpad file function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { // variable strings to return var proxy_yes = "PROXY cache.thurrock.tbn:8084"; var proxy_no = "DIRECT"; if (shExpMatch(url, "*.theockendonacademy.com")) { return proxy_no; } // Proxy anything else return proxy_yes; } Any ideas why its not working? I did this to see if I can get to the wpad file via http://www.theockendonacademy.com/wpad.dat and http://ipaddressofserver/wpad.dat I can get to the file just fine So why would it not work, is the script wrong in the wpad file? Many thanks
  13. I would say they missed it out, cant see it making any difference between those versions I would say just carry on tbh
  14. Yer we go throught the LEA at the momment, but once we done all this, might look at the forefront for filtering and proxy, cache Would do you think about sql for the vm then?
  15. Congrates mate!!!!!!
  16. Hi there Thats what I want to do!!! ... One domain, just make the serco,sims, admin file server on the admin vlan. What I wanted to know what did you think of my virtual server setup list? any comments, plus answer my few questions
  17. Ok bit of an update What do you think of this VM01: CurriculumFileServer (File Server For CurriculumFiles) VM02: AdminFileServer (File Sever For Admin Files) VM03: WebServer (Hosts VLE, School & Library Website) VM04: SCCM (SCCM 2007R3, Forefront) VM05: StreamingServer (Windows Media Server) VM06: DeploymentServer (Windows Deployment Services Role) VM07: PrintServer (Print Server Role) VM08: Impero (Impero Server & Console) VM09: Mail (Exchange 2010) VM10: DC1 (Domain Controller, Spilt FMOS Roles, GlobalCatalog, DNS, Spilt DHCP) VM11: DC2 (Domain Controller, Split FMOS Roles, GlobalCatalog, DNS, Spilt DHCP) VM12: AppServer (LexiaServer, Wordshark, Ultrakey) VM13: SimsServer (Sims/FMS/SQL For Sims/FMS) VM14: SercoServer (Facility/ePortal/SQL For Facility/ePortal) WM15: SharePoint (SharePoint 2010) WM16: SharePointSQL (SQL 2008R2 for SharePoint 2010) Anything you recommend to change or add? Would you say its the best for the SQL database for the Secro ePortal/Factility would be better on a seperate server instead of hosting it on the same server? Gussing this would be good idea, due to we can make a clean virtual server when any new SQL Server release comes out, and just transfer the database? Also if you recommend that, should that be done with the sims/fms database - note only three users use this in the fincance office. In fact would you recommend any SQL database have its own Virtual Server The other things we have using SQL is Forefront, WSUS, SCCM, thats all on the same server, thats all so hosting all the software/roles for thoses. Thanks
  18. I thought our song was very boring, prefered Jedwards song I thought Spain Or Ireland should have won, Spains song was pretty catchy. But no most countries seem to always vote for their neighboor or close neighboors countries. Just doesnt work.
  19. Im hoping you have some sort of backups going on? Ok what I sugguest As you said you have all the user files etc on the other hard drives, that leaves you able to do the following Create a virtual server (2008, not r2 as you cant run a 64bit virtual server as you running a 32bit server) transfer all the roles to this virtual server (makeing sure you save the files for the virtual server to another hard disk/partition) then demote the physical server as a DC. Makes sure any files on the system drive/partiton is copy to another drive Now as you have a virtual server running for the domain you can now reload the physical server to Server 2008 R2. Of course your need to do this during half term, unless the school can have downtime Once Server 2008 R2 is installed you can install hyper-v again add the virual server back on to server thats still saved on the other drive. Transfer everything roles etc on the physical server, setup how you want it Once this is done demote the virtual server. Make a new virtual server (2008 R2) Just make this a Domain Controller, this would be a backup just incase a problem arises on the first Domain Controller Long progress, but thats all I can think off.
  20. Ok question before I answer your question, I have an idea, just need to confirm what extually you have You say you have one single DC Is this your only server? You could have another server(s) thats not a dc How many hard drives has the server got? also how much RAM does it have?
  21. Whats the best eportfolio out there guys? Anyone using mahara locally to us? (got asked to ask this) Where in South Ockendon, Thurrock, RM15 5AY
  22. Thanks mate, shame it was not extually what we were after GD Pages Naviagator does what we want, but it uses its own widget for the job, we want to use our own vertical menu widget that comes with the theme which we designed, the default menu thats comes with GD Pages doesnt look very nice While PageMesh doesnt do what we are after. ANy other plugins Or is the a php theme code I change add/change?
  23. Hi there We are upgrading our website with a new theme, more content and a better menu navgation. This is what I would like done, if this is possible Home page - See just all the parent pages in the menu only (dont see the sub pages when you click any of the parent pages) - plus an added home button Parent pages - Just see the sub pages in that parent page (dont see any parent pages in the menu) - plus an added home button Sub Page - Just see any sub pages if that sub page has any, if not nothing in the menu except a home button (dont see parent pages or sub parent pages) Hope thats not too confussing for you, just think this will be easier with the menu this way
