We have rds setup to serve the main campus and the satellite site, but with the dodgy vpn connection that doesn't support the satellite site any more. So we are having to build a couple more servers so staff can rdweb into the satellite site.

Hi All I have just been told by our external contractor that a site to site VPN should not be used to map network drives. To say my jaw dropped is an understatement. Sop my fellow edugeekers, can you confirm/deny what has been suggested here? To give you the full story...we have a vpn link with a separate school as part of our federation of schools. When staff visit this external site they wish to login and access their drives as if they were on the main campus. This has been working before a new broadband/firewall upgrade was setup by said contractors but due to the 2nd year of poor connectivity and regular dropouts they are now telling us it 'is not designed to support mapped drives'. Discuss.

Hi We use https://www.pupiltracking.com/ and have fou8nd in the past week that teachers are getting randomly logged out when filling in reports. Our firewall guys and their own support guys are at a loss...any ideas or anyone with similar issues? M

This felt awkward at first but adds another level of security and control.

Did you want to 'Ghost' a MAC in the Riddick way?
