  1. I don't want to come across as being awkward but... The school is looking to implement something that has a legal element to it. Coming on the internet and taking advise from "random people" isn't a good idea. Shouldn't the school contact legal professionals. Especially if it comes to legal action down the line.
  2. Hello, I am wondering how you guys handle authentication for BYOD with Fortigate firewalls please? Looking online everything points to using Forinets own WIFI solution. This is something we do not use. Thanks
  3. It isn't often I have something positive to say about an LA but i can also highly recommend them.
  4. I did suggest this. But its a little out of his price range.
  5. If you change MIS surely you would migrate the data over to the new platform?

    Farewell

    It takes some bottle to start a business. Best wishes and good luck!
  7. My last place I could count the damage on one hand. It wasn’t like that when I started. With SLT backing all damage was automatically billed to the department. There was no argument and not negotiation. Harsh but it worked. Every keyboard and mouse in the whole trust were identical.
  8. What if it doesn’t sell? Do they liquidate the remaining assets that have value?
  9. Only works on Outlook mail clients.
  10. Just set this up for my current place. Used it at the last job as well. It’s a great application and the hosting is cheap.
  11. Why would you still have monitors with that resolution?
  12. Just because something isn’t cheaper doesn’t make it right. You ha e to consider other factors. Just a few: functionality, cost of electricity to run devices, the useable life, warranty, reliability, ease of use, IT support man hours in servicing etc. H&S is a factor as well. Having a light shined in your eyes from a projector can’t be good for you. I can’t remember the exact cost but I think I was lying £1,200 for a 65 inch (for small primary school classrooms. This included removing all the old equipment and installing the new. All came with 7 year warranty. The secondaries had 75”. I can’t remember the price off top of my head though. I can check and get back though. Yes the hall is a different situation.
  13. Aren’t projectors dead technology? I stopped using them in 2013.
  14. I case anyone was wondering. This is a secondary school academy. The website doesn’t seem to mention it (that is can see).
  15. I agree. When 9/11 happened there was a huge spike in camping stuff. There was quite a large waiting list for new caravans.
  16. Agree with the above. This video should be helpful
  17. Hello, I am wondering what you guys do to protect Microsoft DPM from ransomware attacks please? What strategy do you have in place please? Thanks
  18. One way around it could be to create a application that contains batch file that maps a network drive and installs it from there. Something like: NET USE Z: "\\server\share" msiexec /i "installer.msi" /qn NET USE Z: /DELETE /Y The share will need to have the correct permissions. If its running under the system account I think "Domain Computers" to have read only permissions will be adequate. By default it doesn't keep the installation files in the Cache. You have to specifically allow this.
  19. Unless the new exams have changed a prerequisite of the CCNP is gaining the CCNA.
  20. Can you get the data out in Excel? If so you could create an email mail merge and send results that way?
  21. If you want a router as well the Unifi UDM might be worth a look at. It’s a router and AP built in 1 unit. You can add additional AP at a later date if you wish.
  22. Send around debt collectors. It’s been know to happen.
  23. You would be better using group policy preferences https://www.driftar.ch/index.php/2016/11/12/microsoft-active-directory-desktop-shortcuts-with-group-policy/.
