MRBS won't allow booking past a certain date
andy_b replied to MrEprise's topic in Network and Classroom Management
It might be defined as a default for new areas in the config php file too. -

This is always so annoying. It makes the process a little longer, but I always select/deselect doors in net2 config when applying firmware updates so I can control which doors get "locked" and update piecemeal.

Not national, but the Local Authority might issue an "impulse number" if they use Impulse Nexus.

Schoolsbroadband down (anyone else?)

If it was upstream of SBB, your SBB backups aren't necessarily going to help. -

Schoolsbroadband - SSL Inspection
andy_b replied to andy_b's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Fair enough. Somehow we had never noticed the lack of full inspection before. I was convinced something was different as I wasn't using a search engine it took a full 30mins before I noticed I didn't have the SBB cert installed. -
Schoolsbroadband - SSL Inspection
andy_b replied to andy_b's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
There is definitely something selective going on. It would be nice to understand what. From a little testing it seems that generally search engines (and youtube) look to be MITM'd and everything else is ignored. -

Don't know if I am loosing my mind, but we have just noticed that our SBB connection provides access to a surprising number of websites without the browser complaining about certificates - this is without their SSL inspection certificate installed. Which suggests to me we are not getting a proper SSL inspected connection. It is hard to say if this is new, because typically we don't browse without the certificate installed. I know a few sites (most microsoft) used to bypass SSL inspection, but the current testing suggests a lot of sites bypass inspection. e.g: cert warning - google.com. youtube.com, en.wikipedia.org No cert warning - gbnews.com, aliexpress.com, aljazeera.com, bbc.co.uk - the list goes on SSB block page - 888.com (etc) We've checked the actual certificates presented by the browser. GB News presents a certificate issued by GlobalSign nv-sa both with and without the SBB certificate installed. Google, by contrast, produces a certificate error without the SBB certificate and presents an SBB certificate when it is installed. Is this the same for others? Because it does seem a number of sites are getting bypassed.

Mail notification for Governor school email addresses
andy_b replied to BlueSkies's topic in How do you do....it?
If it is M365 I'd get/help the user create something in Power Automate. -
If you choose "User details", Consents is the third item down, which is a little easier. But, no explicit "Consents" in the list.

Agreement was reached in 1997, but the deadline for job evaluations and pay reviews was eventually set to March 2007 - so you can feel a little less old now

I use Cloudflare DNS and a docker container to keep it updated. (not at work)

Its a pain. Most of our email is ok, but I have a few that are getting rejected due to not being spf/dkim aligned. All I have to go off are the DMARC reports - and they don't really identify the individual email, and so Arbor don't seem that interested. All spf/dmarc is setup as per their recommendations.

They 'recently' added a fourth IP address to the spf pool - have you added that? https://support.arbor-education.com/hc/en-us/articles/360030423893-Emails-not-sent-or-go-to-junk-Setting-up-DMARC-and-SPF-Record#h_01J6SHDKCWC0P2S7DBSEYPNN7V

Can we add Special into the mix 😀
-
Yeah, on the Staff Profile page there is a "Include in SWF census" checkbox. Schools tend to just add them to Arbor and deselect that.

IDP SMART-31 Card Printer - Printing Quality/Longevity
andy_b replied to JazzFlute's topic in How do you do....it?
For us the ones that fade the most are the ones that get sprayed by perfume/aftershave. The occasional user likes to rub them like a talisman. Other than that, they seem to last ok. Mine is 4 years old with slight fading. -
staff member wanting ai in the school
andy_b replied to xicor's topic in AI in Education & Enterprise
Struggling with this a little. Chatgpt is demanded as people are unhappy with Copilot's output. -
Not sure that was a co-incidence, not working currently for us.

exam_user1, exam_user2 etc... One single "invigilator" account with delegated release setup for exam_users. Invigilator goes (with or without pupils) to printer and uses their account to release all the jobs.
