how do they get to see the prompt again?.

But it isn't as common on the machines as it would seem in Little-Miss's school which suggests its the norm there, whereas I wouldn't expect it to be the norm at a school with a bigger ict infrastructure. The loss of things like WSUS, auditing and software installations compared to the staff being able to add printers at home and install there own software I imagine would become magnified in a larger enviroment, whereas it can be of benefit for machines to be standalone in a smaller enviroment.

if theyre not on the domain its likely to be for teacher convenience (being abel to add printers, add to home networks that sort of thing) which doesn't happen in a bigger school for the greater good. As for antivirus i'd write a short report on it outlining its importance and ask smt to look at it and allocate the relevant funds and put the relevant policys in place (ie each machine MUST have anti virus) staff contracts are the smts problem, not yours. Get them to write the releavant aup, it should include security, legal issues, data protection, replacement policy, behaviour policy etc etc.

cant answer that one, but look at the aup in the projects section on the forums. might be an answer to a question you didn't ask!.

looking to avoid pxe booting as the school has a legacy program that pxeboots. unfortately cost is only ever measured in capital cost, rather than ongoing cost at my school!. thanks chaps, keep the ideas coming!.

I'd like to set up a thin client to use remote desktop to connect to a virtual machine. I know its not a great setup but we have several staff who have nackered old laptops that can be used as thin clients. Is there an easy way to set this up? happy to boot from usb or cd if thats possible, ideally it should pre populate the name of the machine they are connecting to.

it's pretty unreasonable to expect you to lift crt monitors if you physically cant, and very ungallent of the staff to expect a pregnant lady to lift heavy stuff.

check to see if any toolbars have been installed.

found it, the / should have been \ . so it was returning zero

fairly sure its this one... diskspace1 = objQuota.DiskSpaceUsed\1000000 it gives a huge number when it does, so i wonder if i need to declare the variable in a different way.

the script i was using to do this broke on any account over 1 gig

how do people deal with letting the users know what their quotas are? i've found various vb scripts but i'm limited because the user appears to need some permissions or our 2 users that have 10gb+ cause a problem with a vbs script that harvests through the quota entries server side. I cant even get the status bar turned on en masse at the moment :'(

yup, if you've got my addy mail me or pm me.

ms 70-290 and ms 70-291 will do the job.

do you have ranger installed?

have you tried using \\domainname\netlogon ?

i went with network and cabling solutions in the end Network & Cabling Solutions - Consultancy, Design and Installation very very good. digital signage and iptv.

congratulations! first couple of days spend talking to people, after that do a swot analysis (strengths, weakness's, opportunities and threats), update any policies that need updating with the relevant staff (aup, how to prioritise jobs, how to make purchases, how to log support calls) then crack on with updating all the paperwork and filling in any holes. also bare in mind the work you would like to carry out at half term. good luck!

double check the logon scripts of people who do have this problem and compare them to people that dont have this problem. also check the permissions on any files in the netlogon folder that people will access.

i'm ashamed to say i've never used ntbackup and a tape drive together. i've always done ntbackups to disk or tape backups using backup exec. Is it as simple as installing the tape drive , in this case an ultrium1, then it comes up as a system drive?.

get some curriculum based education matey, do something like a levels or a gnvq/btec . then get onto vocational training, maybe read some books on the cisco ccna or the microsoft mcsa/mcse

congrats
