export smoothwall cert for MITM
Gaz replied to woodham's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
If you have Edinburgh-2 then go to http://your_smoothwall_ip/modules/guardian3/mitm/ Download that cert thats the one you want. EDIT: Or from Guardian >> HTTPS Inspection >> Settings >> Export -
I didn't know they existed! Looking at the specs sheet they are very good value for money. The differences I can see are a differnce in horse power e.g. the 1950 has 128MB of RAM and the 2920 has 512MB of ram and a tri-core 625MHz CPU the CPU on the 1950 is unknown but probably slower or fewer cores. The OP will need to decide whether the extra horse power will be required from the 2920, I'm not sure a Primary will be needing the extra routing capabilities the 2920 provides but who knows? Certainly a good option and a contender.

Wow HP are using the Aruba purchase to rebrand their switches! The HP (or Aruba) 2920 will make a perfect core switch for a primary, however do keep in mind that with the 2920 it will be 95% configuration by CLI the web gui is sparse to say the least. The Cisco SG500 may also be worth checking out. A quick price example for model comparison. Cisco SG500 with PoE+ http://www.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/products/13707-cisco-smb-sg500-52p-k9-g5/ HP2920-48G-PoE+ HP 2920-48G-POE+ 48-Port Layer 3 Managed Stackable Gigabit PoE+ Switch w/ 4x Dual-Personality Ports & 2x Module Slots (370W) J9729A Now if you want 10GB both are capable but will cost a bit more. I think the HP may be slightly more capable as it does have optional modules on the backplane and a replaceable PSU. For example the 10GB (x4) cisco Cisco SG500X-48P 48-Port Managed Stackable Gigabit PoE+ Switch w/ 4x 10 Gigabit SFP+ Ports 10GbE (370W) 500 Series The HP in 10GB (x2) if you wanted 4 like the cisco its another £300 https://www.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/products/17447-hp-j9729a/ and https://www.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/products/17743-hp-j9731a/ or https://www.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/products/17745-hp-j9732a/ or both as there are 2 module slots plus a stacking slot. Cheapness go for Cisco Futureproof and modulation go for HP

Is there a statututory requirement to have a VLE (primary)
Gaz replied to grinch's topic in Virtual Learning Platforms
I guess thats why people have them then for legacy reasons in an attempt to gain outstanding status. We just went for a VLE (i wasn't involved in the purchase) which I can almost guarantee wont be used, seems like a waste of money that could have been used to buy much needed new computers. -

Gaz replied to grinch's topic in Virtual Learning Platforms
Fair enough, I thought there might have been an official document saying that it wasn't a requirement to pass or meet some criteria of an Ofsted inspection. -

Is there anything from Ofsted saying that a VLE isn't a requirement? -
I thought it odd that the Palo Alto couldn't do QoS so a quick google and it does. https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/documentation/61/pan-os/pan-os/quality-of-service/configure-qos.html Also 20mb for 1500 users........

The arduino drivers are a bit of a pain to install. Steps that I took. Download the latest drivers from arduino.cc (as these will also contain the drivers for the arduino.org boards) Extract the security certificate for the drivers and put it in the trusted publishers store in group policy. Repackage the installer using an msi builder (I used exemsi) and configure it to use the /S switch for silent install Distribute via software installation. Make sure that you select the correct COM port and make sure that you also select the right board, via Tools >> Port, and Tools >> Board

Guys dont forget you can get trial units direct from Meraki who pay for shipping to and from. Also do the free webinars and get the free APs and Switch from that. Only thing stopping me from going #Fullstack is the price.

Need Demo units of Interactive TV Panels ASAP Money to Spend
Gaz replied to round2it's topic in AV and Multimedia Related
We found that the board can be accidentally activated when holding a pen close to the end and then trying to write, the users hand also activated the board so if you had multi touch enabled you would be writing twice, or in the case of the Sharp erasing something. The problem lies with how it works. Some boards use an x-axis and y-axis light bar on 2 sides some on 4 sides when the beam is tripped the board senses that a touch has been made. It did had a cool feature in that if you activated a small area it said "thats the pen" but if you activated a larger area it says "thats an eraser" so you could wipe stuff out using your hand. The Capacitive one fits our needs much better as we also found it more accurate and being 80" was better for the bigger rooms we have (or will have at our new site) -
There seems to be lots of websites out there offering solutions, have you tried any of them? https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=amazon%20prime%20video%20chromecast

Gaz replied to round2it's topic in AV and Multimedia Related
Its a piece of glass so glass that size would need to be some sort of hardened glass, so it should be OK. There may be a 70" version thats capacitive in the future but they don't make one right now. -

Seems OK as the Sharp software is pants. But is that per device? -

I've recently demo'd a Sharp 80" capacitive touch screen, but its expensive but worth it. You will still be able to use the ActivInspire software. PN-80TC3 - Products - Sharp Professional LCD Monitors Also tried a 70" Sharp but its infrared touch screen which I wouldn't recommend. -

Draytek 2860n-plus is your friend. DrayTek Vigor 2860n Plus Triple-WAN Simultaneous Dual-Band ADSL2+/VDSL2 WiFi Router w/ Load Balancing, VPN & 3G/4G LTE Support (600Mbps N) Use the drop down menus to select a different model they do a standard N version which is a little cheaper or no wireless and then get a wireless AP separately which is probably a far better option.

OK looking at the Arduino.cc .zip file with the drivers it looks like they include drivers for the Arduino.org variant but its not picking it up when I plug the Arduino in.
-
So it appears that the Arduino foundation has 2 forks, I didn't realise this until I had to install drivers which I got from the Arduino.cc website, the boards with the Arduino.cc domain work fine, but the boards with the Arduino.org domain don't want to install the drivers from Arduino.cc Whats odd is if I manually install the drivers from the Arduino.cc website they work fine on the Arduino.org boards. I know all this should just work together but it doesn't. Should I install the Arduino.org drivers will they work with both boards?

Gaz replied to carlosdss's topic in Raspberry Pi, Arduino & Other SBCs
Maybe a bit late now. I got it working by pushing the digital certificate out via GP to the Trusted Publishers store then using msi wrapper I deployed the msi via GP also. I've hit a bit of a wall as I now need to silently uninstall it from the computers in order to update the software to the latest version. Will running "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\Uninstall.exe /S" work to uninstall it silently via a startup script?- 18 replies

They do have the iCloud application installed and the plugin in Outlook is enabled. In the past that has disabled itself and I have had to re-enable it via the plugins menu) I'm wary of resyncing iCloud because last time we did it we ended up with 2 calendars somehow. But yes iCloud should resync via the web. Its like the address book has been deleted somehow, but I've no idea how it could have happened. Hes been using this setup for a long time and has calendar appointments for the next 2 years!!!

Anyone offer any help? There are lots of Apple users on this forum someone must have an idea! I guess these are the problems you can get when 3 competing vendors are trying to talk to each other.
