All teacher laptops are now Win 10. Some test desktops around the school. Once I decided to use Classic Start Menu everything was fine and everyone is asking for it now.

Oh didn't realise that was possible.

Minor point but do people say Mac-Oh-Es or Mac-OSS?

I have finally been listened to and we are ditching our awful Publisher templates that we use for annual reports. Yippee! I have been asked to look into alternatives. So what do other schools use? Any recommendations? (primary school btw).

Microsoft to introduce new ‘Windows 10 Pro for Education’ SKU
sparkeh replied to dblight's topic in Windows 10
I have literally no idea what's going on, what edition to use, how to deploy this anymore. I think I am going to live in a cave. -
New Smoothwall install - WPAD.DAT
sparkeh replied to synaesthesia's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Perhaps I'm being dumb, but that file just returns DIRECT for every case. Don't you need to add a line to return your proxy at some point. E.g. mine looks like this: function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { if ( isInNet(host, [i]"Our IP range"[/i], "255.255.255.0") || isPlainHostName(host) || localHostOrDomainIs(host, "127.0.0.1") || dnsDomainIs(host, "[i]ourdomain.local[/i]") || dnsDomainIs(host, "[i]LA.domain[/i]") ){ return "DIRECT"; } else return "PROXY [i]oursmoothieURL[/i].local:800"; } So, if it an IP Address on our network, a plain hostname, localhost, a FQDN (on our domain) or our LA's domain then the connection is direct. Everything else is directed to the proxy. -

Side note to this but if you are installing sccm you should be installing the Current Business Branch versions now not 2012. Current base version is v1511 which updates to v1602. Latest version has added goodies for managing Windows 10.

Oh I don't mind the 10p to stop the calls, just the principle of telling everyone it was free then finding out it wasn't.

Turns out I was charged 10p for this text.

Office 365 ProPlus free for staff from 1st dec 2014
sparkeh replied to Marshall_IT's topic in Cloud Services
As it was explained to me, the licenes are free but resellers can't add a zero cost line to the order so have to charge a penny on the annual renewal, *not* per month. Always good to chat to a couple of resellers on these things though -
Me too!
-
That's what I'll tell the wife when the copies of FHM start coming through the letterbox

Mmm my phone said that, but the text is supposed to be free. I assumed that the warning was generic as those short codes usually do end up costing you.

Re-imaging a workstation with SOLUS 3 agent included in the image
sparkeh replied to kshah58's topic in MIS Systems
I kinda can't see the point. You need to use the S3 UI to define what clients install what software anyway. If you assign software to a PC then the agent gets installed anyway. The clients have GUID so all the agents will report back with the same GUID. Good luck sorting that out
