Chrome unable to print?
atamakosi replied to atamakosi's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
We run Win 7 Ent x64 on all machines. I couldn't find any policy on the affected users that would disable print preview. The preview itself does work, allowing the user to choose pages, num copies, etc. and submit the print job. But then the print queue will only show: exampleprintjob.xxx - spooling But this only happens from Chrome. I've had to switch some to Outlook for printing as a temp fix. -
Chrome unable to print?
atamakosi replied to atamakosi's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
bump? its...spreading.... now more users can't print from Chrome. I've updated Chrome and restarted the spooler and print server. Still no change. -
Have a machine here that is unable to print from Chrome but all other apps are fine. Anyone else found this issue? Printing from Chrome results in a document - spooling message in the print queue and never progresses.

How was the move from Musac to Xero? I've been thinking about looking into this for our accounts since they have tight integration with the school's bank.

Yeah, this was obviously a bit of a whine and rant for me last year. I've dealt with having this vm wasting resources since but starting this year we migrated to a new physical box and had to do the reinstall. The docs Medtech supplied me were waaaay out of date and required specialized knowledge only their support team knew. Sadly, its one of those entrenched pieces of software that is in use at clinics (our local uses it too) and probably won't be replaced by anything better in the near future. I've been trying to get our accounts off Musac FM for years now, especially when I had to install a 32 bit OS just to run their software which we moved away from years ago.

Watchguard Proxy and Untrusted Certificates
atamakosi replied to atamakosi's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
Thanks for the response. I exported all the relevant certificates from our Watchguard (instructions) and imported into GPO. I believe though it led me to the correct cause of the problem being OCSP enabled on the Watchguard SSL inspection. If it checked the certificate was revoked then it did not allow the user on to the valid sites. Not sure why the cert came back as invalid still as the expiration date was years away. But thanks for the lead, Simplexion. -
We've had a Watchguard XTM 500 series for a while now and we've made do with some basic filtering. We initially wanted to run the filter through a proxy to achieve deeper inspection but our student policies always balk at us when we do this. Chrome refuses to open most sites stating the server's certificate is untrusted (the firebox cert). Is there any thing to be done to correct this issue for this policy? It doesn't seem to affect Teachers or Staff who do use the proxy.

Arthur, you beautiful human being. Thank you!

We've just installed our first 3D printer and Sketchup requires the STL extension to export for the correct format. It seems that any Sketchup extension requires the user to login, download, and then install. Has anyone had success with deploying extensions through group policy or scripts? Our student policy prevents users from installing software so the Google way does not work for us. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks for the answers. These are 7982 models with a new ZD 3000, btw. I was hoping initially just to put the WAP in that building in Mesh along with the nearest WAP's to provide the bridge. It sounds like I'll either need to A) mesh the entire network or B) mesh the entire network and then disable mesh on a per WAP basis. Sounds like an experiment to be conducted during the holidays.

Hi all, I have an temp building for some classes that needs network access and was thinking about putting a ruckus wap in mesh to do this. While all i've read online so far is about the benefits and sunshine of mesh with Ruckus, the ZoneDirector gives me a warning that some feature will become unavailable if i enable mesh and can not undo this. The question is, what features would we lose?? I can't seem to find an answer anywhere.

My school has experienced the same issues with all our netbooks for years. The only solution I found was to, every few weeks, hardwire them and force the updates. This seemed to help the "no logon servers" issue. I'm revisiting these machines as the staff are becoming less and less patient with them. The time it takes to login and then attempt to open Office has become too much. I'm toying with the idea that the settings for the wireless network might be a cause of this issue. Not to hijack the thread but has anyone else had really long login times and has changing the authentication/encryption helped? i.e. switch from 802.1x EAP with WPA2-AES to just 802.1x EAP, open?

Thanks for the info but I believe we are getting away from the question. Will disabling the automatic password change using a regedit pushed through gpo prevent the trust relationship issue from occurring? Accepting your premise that it is caused due to a rollback during startup repair, would not disabling the password change in the first place prevent the error because the password pre-rollback and post-rollback would be the same?

Not sure quite where to post this as it relates to Win 7 but also to AD. Here's the situation, some of our machines on Win 7 will have trust relationship issues with the domain servers from time to time. This is mainly coming from our non-wired units. The time consuming fix right now is to connect them to a switch every week or two and force policy updates, etc. I've just stumbled across a MS kb article about disabling automatic machine account password changes (concerning sharing a computer account for a dual-boot machine, but that's another story) and was curious if anyone else ran across this similar issue that denies active user accounts access due to the trust relationship and if this machine password change would fix this? FYI, the article many thanks

Anyone else getting saddled with creating/maintaining a dedicated server so your school nurse can keep basic data? I feel a bit irked that they have thrown this unto the school without any input from those they expect to cover the cost and do the work after they send their tech out to set up their software. Btw, thanks for asking if I'm ok giving admin access to my servers to someone you've picked.
