  1. Has "Derek" been playing about with file attributes to make the files invisible not the folder ??
  2. Are the network cards gigabit ? Had this problem and has to disable mediasense to get gpo to apply properly. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239924/
  3. I think (going from memory) you can select "Do not specify administrative policy for My Pictures" in the My Documents folder redirection policy.
  4. What error's are being thrown up in eventvwr m8 |?
  5. Used them once last christmas to buy a 19" LCD tv for my bedroom. At the time it was a fantastic deal. But TV arrived with No remote controll or power. Numerous phone calls eventually finished up with the TV going back and a refund being given, then 2 days after the tv being returned I recieved the power supply and tv remote. I may be a random case but if you do have a stock issue or fault you will be at mercy of the French (the warehouse is in France) Si
  6. In the task bar is there an gfx icon, intal/ati etc ? Right click and select which displays you want to use, Have found in past certain makes work better using this optio as apposed to FN+F5 etc
  7. think of the .dmg as an iso file, it will need to be burn to a dual layer dvd (if full version of Leapard) so yes use toast and ¨burn image¨ option
  8. My mum has the adsl service 8meg and its awful, very low dowload and pitiful upload speeds. Check out the forums at http://www.adslguide.org for customer reviews
  9. Are the users part of the correct OU? The one the GPO is linked to ? Try the gpo group results wizard thingy
  10. I found this problem is fixed by installing Office 2003 service pack 2.
  11. ok from the start, cards on table, IIS and website bulding , hosting is alien to me lol. I currently host a website for our primary school and it works fine. I have been playing with Joomla and trying to get it to work, I can setup a localhost http:// and browse it, I have downloaded php 5.2.4 and installed it (IIS Asapi module - is this correct) I got as far as creating a test.php file but IE just gives me "Page cannot be displayed" error now. Its probably somthing dull I have missed (its friday after all) any help appreciated Server 2003 + IIS6
  12. Thanks Geoff, looks interesting
  13. The HT has decided he would like the children to be able to have group blogs for different project. I wont allow access to external blog sites as can of worms and opening come to mind. So is there a way of hosting a blog(s) internally, if so what software/system will i need. I've no experience with moodles, vle's or web building tbh. Any advice appreciated.
  14. Using Sims Currently we run a report at 9.30 that gives us the Names and Telephone numbers of all absent children for that day, we then copy and paste them into a web based SMS gateway with a std message. I was just wondering if anyone had any idea;s for automating the process of importing the telephone numbers into the sms gateway along with a standardized " your kid isnt in school" message" ?? Maybe asking for the impossible/improbable but this is the place to ask

    Apple prices...

    If you can buy it via school then try jigsaw24.com Have spent alot with them over the last 6 months and they are very good on their apple pricing.
  16. Silly question, this site is an invaluable resource for me on an almost daily basis. 10/10 here full marks
  17. Thanks just did that - still annoyed that it doesnt reboot when I tell it etc etc - but what can you expect from m$
  18. I have 2 server 2k3 box's that after a wsus update try to auto-restart and then stall shutting down. There is nothing in the event log to help me sort this out. 1 server is an exchange server the other is a DC. I have tried the gpo settings to prevent auto-restarting of the servers but it didnt work. (they still reboot after x amount of time) Should I just stop the servers getting their updated via wsus or does anyone know of a fix ? Cheers Si
  19. Little update - killed mac by editing /etc/authorize file so out it back. Looked a little deeper and it seems its not a kerberos problem I have its an ladap3 issue - the clients wont connect. Still trying
  20. I have been following Mike Bombich's bible on AD an OSX and seem to have succeeded to a point (along with help from Ross2k5) The clients are connected via AD plugin and Ldap3 fo AD and OD integration. Unfortunatly I cannot get them to Automount any drives I assign using the osx server or take any preferences. ot times for the mac's has increased, seems to be a lot going on before it gets to the login window (sometimes stalls) I have checked for any kerberos tickets on the mac client and there arn't any, so I have been trying to follow this article. It refers to a AppleScript file to change the /etc/authorization file as per Apple. I am about to make the change on 1 of the mac's to see if it works, but didn't really fancy manually editing the file on the mac's if I could get the script. Also if you have read this and are thinking "he doesn't need to do that" then please stop me lol. Am flying a little blind here guys and gals, its turning into a very steep learning curve.
  21. Couldnt you just map a drive for use in he "music room" and tel he pupils/staff to save to that instead ?
  22. we are looking to order 1 of the above this week, but I am unable to find any information of the dimensions of the mount. I need to know exactly how low it can go, I want it installed in our nursery class, we want it mounted no higher than 6', looking at the supposed drop of 50cm it could go as low as a foot off the floor, but I need to confirm how far the slide travels? If anyone can help i'd appreciate it Si
  23. Set the loopback policy to merge http://support.microsoft.com/kb/231287
  24. We are about to start using Sims to do E-reg and I was wondering if there is a web based eportal that teachers could use as apposed to me installing sims throughout? It would also be nice to use PDA's for ereg, I have contacted capita and they charge £150 per pda for the software, then we would have to buy the PDA's - worked out abouut £4k for 12 pda's, thats extortion. So was looking for a way around it or another solution, otherwise i'l just install in on each teachers laptop. Si
  25. Have you tried changing the channel its broadcasting on, maybe there is some interference ?
