I was convinced it was a false pos but thought I'd ask. I'll probably just re image anyway.

Can anyone help on this one?

Going to buy GTA V today, £35 down the road. Checked Xbox store, still £50!

Ah nick answered this back in 1970! I'll give that a shot.

XML emailed over. Thanks Paul!

Cheers Paul. I'll PM it to you shortly.

Anyone?

SEC has just flagged up to one of the machines having Mal/EncPk-AAK with the path C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\tmp.edb. Is this a cause for concern or a false positive, I cant find anything on the web at all!

20 Terabytes? I don't think an external HDD exists that size, and if it does, it will be huge! Our nightly full backups stand at just over 1Tb.

Just pulled this from the event log. An error occurred in Home Access Plus+ Page: mscorlib String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.

That works! Thanks James!

Thanks again James. Always a clear explanation! I'll give that a shot tomorrow.

Reading that, must I make a security group for users who want a simple password? Ie it cannot be done for a single user?

I have just realised I mentioned the wrong person! Sorry @Edu-IT ! I meant @EduTech

I am trying to firstly disable password complexity for one user which seems to go through ok. I then try to change their password to the simple password they want and I get an error saying that its not complex enough! I'm using these commands: Disable complexity: Set-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName [email protected] -StrongPasswordRequired $false Change password: Set-MsolUserPassword –UserPrincipalName [email protected] -NewPassword "pass" -ForceChangePassword $false Here is a screenie of this happening. [ATTACH=CONFIG]23340[/ATTACH] Please help a techie in need! Perhaps @Edu-IT can shed some light? Ta

Cheers James, I appreciate your help so much! I'm swayed to DirSync but I have a few questions if thats ok? 1) My email domain schoolname.co.uk is different to my internal domain name schoolname.local. Is this a problem? 2) All my users have been uploaded using a CSV, will their synced accounts just 'merge' or overwrite? 3) Can I choose certain OU's that I want to sync? 4) My users log in in school using smitj001 and I want their email to be [email protected]. Can I tell Dirsync to use their logon name? Sorry if this seems basic but I've just had O365 set up for me and I'm new to this. I know @FN-GM has set up DirSync, perhaps you can help? Thanks all.

So their email address? Or something M$ specific? Would you recommend using dirsync in this instance? how straight forward is it to get going? I don't want to be administering password resets via powershell all the time.

Cheers James, I have ran that to apply to all users. I am just dumbfounded that passwords need to be set through Powershell if they are to be simple! Im having trouble now where I run this Set-MsolUserPassword –UserPrincipalName [userPrincipalName]–NewPassword [NewPassword] To change the password but I dont know what UserPrincipleName is.

Did you disable complexity via powershell? Has it taken effect? It also says that every password reset needs to be done via powershell to be simple. So much hassle! Im now looking into DirSync to sync with my onsite AD.

NECRO THREAD! Sorry, thought it better to tag on here than make a new one. Did you ever find a solution to this? I have just followed the instructions on this how can I disable password complexity and expiration for a particular security group or license type? | Manage Office 365 | Microsoft Office 365 Community page but it no worky!

Ohh where to start... Smoothwall, Bloxx, Lightspeed, Sophos to name a few!

Happy Birthday! I remember leaving my teens as if it was 2 years ago! Oh wait..
