That would agree with my own experience of the system. On one occassion I found after running the script that the timezone and language settings had applied but the date format setting hadn't. When I logged in on the test account to check it had worked I recieved an error message that the date format (which was still set to m/d/yy I think) wasn't compatible with my other regional settings. A few minutes later the date format had setting had taken and everything was fine. The nature of the cloud I guess.

We're in the middle of setting up an Office 365 solution for our staff email. During the setup I've needed to use a bit of Powershell which is totally new to me. I thought it might be useful to others if I shared what I have learned. I have written (compiled is probably more accurate) some scripts in Powershell IDE so that techies after me have an easier life. Once downloaded you can run them by right click - Run with Powershell. You will need to edit it first to include your proxy settings or comment out the proxy command before running if you don't have a proxy (# is used for comments in Powershell) Hide users from GAL - can be used to hide users from the address lists. We need this because administrators need to enter a mobile number for the purpose of password resets but we may start using Office 365 Outlook for students later in the year so we need this information hidden. We're setup 2 accounts for administrators a regular user account for them to use for emails and a second administrator account. Connect-SetRegional-SetSpelling is a script for setting the regional and spelling options for all current users. Using this will mean that users aren't asked to confirm regional settings when they first login. It's set to check spelling before sending an email and customized to UK. Hope they're useful Connect-SetRegional-SetSpelling.ps1 Hidde user from GAL.ps1

We have a multipoint machine setup in our library with monitors with built in hubs. It's a test rig to see if we want to buy more. We've been having some problems with it and i think its mainly caused by these hubs. When the students turn the monitors off it disconnects the hubs. This seems fine if it's just one or two and not too often but when more then a few get turned on or off at the same time the assossciate stations causes srcshell.exe to crash and the system needs rebooting. I can't bee 100% this is the cause untill we've tested some discrete hubs. Has anyone else had this problem or similar?
