Chrome v124 - ERR_SSL_KEY_USAGE_INCOMPATIBLE

We've seen this issue but only for a number of users. We use Smoothwall and Sophos and it seems to only affect Edge & Chrome, Firefox looks unaffected. -
It's still not applying. I don't know if it's because I've enabled Windows Photo Viewer and am trying to associate file extensions with that or if the content of my text file is in the wrong format.

I messed about with computers as a kid but I was more interested in how they worked rather than how they were used. IT wasn't a job so I trained as an accountant, realised that was boring unless you wanted to be crooked. IT then became a job so I did some proper summer classes and then Uni. Applied for various jobs and got taken on a 9 month contract and I'm still here 20 years later. Started as a wet behind the ears technician and worked up to IT Manager.

Is spanning tree configured correctly. I'm going to sound like I know more than I actually do here but our HP switches have a setting called Configuration Revision Level and we are using MSTP protocol. We currently have a flat network and all switches have to have the same number entered here. Find out what number your core switch is set as and then enter that into your edge switches. This helped us a great deal but I did get some help from one of our suppliers with this. Also, are you using the default lock screen/desktop wallpaper or a custom one. I heard that Windows 10 can do this silly thing where each PC will keep going out to the internet to download the default wallpaper and cause issues.

This is a behaviour issue and should be dealt with according to the school policy, there isn't a technical resolution to everything. I'm not an O365 admin but could you reset the students password then log on and delete the offending material? Having said that I'd be interested if this could be done by an admin.

Hello everyone I'm looking into signing up to Backupify but was wondering how the purchasing process went for those of you using it, with them being a US company and the invoicing being in US$

We chose Google over MS because of Google Classroom. It facilitates one-to-one communication or class wide collaborative work. Submitting and re-submitting (once it's been marked) of assignments without the need to directly email the teacher. If you use it correctly it can also tick the peer assessment box too. Classroom integrates great into each student calendar and (if you enable it) their email. I do wish that the parental engagement part was a bit easier to manage though. I will say that the 3 core MS Office apps are more sophisticated than the Google offerings but they are constantly developing and are more than fine for 95% of what we do as a school.

G Suite - Sharing a Team Drive between 2 Whitelisted Domains
jcs808 replied to TwistedHelixis's topic in Cloud Services
I think that's correct. You need to enable sharing files outside of your domain and limit it to those whitelisted. -

Does anyone have the MAC installer file for SMART NoteBook 14 they'd like to share please?

I was told that they will be archived. If your not sure then get in touch with Salamander. I'm in the same position and that's what I'll be doing.

We use it and have it set up so each of our classes is exported from our MIS (we use SalamanderSoft) . Users and groups are synced from AD and we're just starting to migrate our email to GMail. We use Google classroom as a digital store for learning materials and setting homework. It's not fully embedded into the school day but it's a really good set of tools and they're free.
