Thanks for the replies, this is not in my contract to do lunch duties but as a technician actually having a lunch has always been impossible so i volunteered years ago to do these duties. Might as well get paid! Teachers also get paid this much to do duties i think that's why its seems so much. I might speak to my Union. I would like to know how much other schools pay staff for lunch duties.

Who else gets paid for lunch duties? in Birmingham Especially. We currently recieve £8.49 for 20 mins work. But we have just been told that for the last 10 + years this is incorrect and that the pay according the LEA is only £4.24 per 20 mins! see below: "We have recently had an audit and dinner duties were highlighted. Currently dinner duties are paid at £8.49 per session. A ‘session’ should mean the whole dinner time (40 mins), therefore dinner duties should be paid at £4.24 per session (20 mins) " I Suspect a cost cutting exercise. Anyone now the going rate for Birmingham?

I can't seem to get the Devizes School Online Booking System to work with a 2008 member server, has anyone managed this? Its work as far as viewing the booking system but problems arise when trying to use windows autentication. The member server is authorised in AD. no username are picked up, used to work great on a 2003 Domain Controller.

Theres a great script to delete profiles knocking around on these forums ive been using it for a while now and its great. I put a link to it if i find it, or i'll post the script on monday. I ve found with the local profiles if you enable the gpo to not allow temp logons and also the workstation policy to wait for policy's and scripts to run before allowing a user to log on . I had the same issues you had and these two policies sorted the probelms.

Installing Devizes booking system on server 2008?
mtdmitchell replied to reggiep's topic in How do you do....it?
I have the same problem on a 2008 member server , username and password is not recognised. the member server is Trusted in AD. I have tried digest authentication and windows Authentication stuck! -
Nope im still struggling to get my head around this, with the other Hp switches which are connected to the netgear controllers you are saying to change the primary vlan to the new network 172.16.... which would have all the ports tagged except fot the uplink port which is for vlan 2 which is the original network 10.122....... But what about the wired hosts attached to these switches (pcs) which still need to use the original ip scope, are they affected?
-
Right i think im getting there the controllers are connected to a hp switch which then connects back to a core switch. So i need to configure the vlan2 on those first switches and also the core switch? Not all of our Ap's are plugged into controllers?
-
Great my wireless is now picking up Address from 172.16 scope, but i cannot get the static route to work when entering the suggested ip address for destination i get "Invalid Destination IP address" What is the destination address? should it be my original network? I have tryed it and get the following error " Error processing command:Cannot Create Static Route " Also i now seem to have lost all my access points. From the Error logs on the controller it would appear they cannot access the TFtp server to download the image (they are all stuck on the orange test light) I have tried a manual reset of a Few access points. Im presuming they are looking ofr the old controller still? Altough i do have 6 out of 31 working for some reason
-
Thank you for you help, I have configured the device as suggested but im a little confused with the tagging and Uplink? with vlan 1 i have ports 1-7 assiociated to it (tagged?) and vlan 2 i have just port 8 Also i dont understand "original network can see the new one you should set the default gateway on DHCP" i have 1 master controller and 2 local controllers Thanks again

Hi, Is it possible to configure the netgear WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Controller to be a DHCP server to just wireless clients? Im Runnig low on Ip address so im planning on a dirfferent scope for the wireless clients. Is it just a case of enabling DHCP for the already configured vlan? The netgear manual is a bit vague.

managed Wireless and raduis
mtdmitchell replied to mtdmitchell's topic in Network and Classroom Management
Thanks for the reply, i will try it tomorrow -
For a While now i have experiencing strange problems, Which for the life of me i cannot figure out. Basically we have 3 netgear smart switches and a raduis server and mix of xp and vista laptops. i use WPA\ Peap for security with no certificate valadation for now as i removed this to see if the certificate was causing the problem. Wireless settings are being applyed by Gpo. the problem is the laptop will connect to the wireless and succesfully connect to the raduis server as stated in the system logs, but the laptop will get a Apipa (169.254). On the Netgear console i can see that the laptop has a Apipa address. If i cable in the laptop and reboot then this seems to cure the problem for a while. i dont know if this is a network issues or a problem with my raduis or maybe the Netgear smart switches. im running out of ideas now. * this only happens to about 10% of the laptops and its random, 90% of users connect just fine
-
Can anyone explain what this message means? My FR seems to have quite a few in the server logs for different work stations The machine wide limit settings do not grant Remote Launch permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {06B3C8F2-C7B2-4D57-A481-2A3687E29627} to the user CAMPION\RMLAPRUDGEE$ SID (S-1-5-21-48363335-2125728018-2666427484-6072). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

I re-issued the CA earlier in the week and it has cured the problem on 99% of the laptops. I just have few random laptops which will not Authenticate ( A rebuild cures the problem). Strange because if i manually add the CA or delete the CA on the laptop it still does not work. Another strange thing is these stations have two or three CA's installed. But not to worry as im back up and running now thanks to your advise. I asked about the certificate because i spoke to a RM tech who is telling the no CA is copied onto the RM stations. Thanks again Martin
-
Ash can you tell me if the CA is actually installed on the stations of a cc3 network or are they on the stations because they are joined to the domain? I see they can be pushed out though group policy but RM dont do this from what i can see
-
thanks for the replies Ash, i really appreiciate it. I have an RM CC3 network so we are using the Enterprise C.A . The certificate doesn't expire for another 2-3 months.control through remote policy is on and Shared Secret is ok. I will try a seperate policy.
-
Policy is set for All Domain computers and Domain Users Infact i followed your instructions to the letter, it has worked fine for over 5 months.
