  1. We've been told categorically that we cannot supply equipment to staff under any circumstances as it either breaches the council's regs on perks, or it breaches the regs on VAT depending on who buys the equipment in the first place. The best deal we've had was a local company who would basically allow any public sector employee to have up to £600 or £1000 dependent on pay grade, credit on any Dell or HP system paid back over 2 years at 1% apr. They pushed that to schools and the council and the NHS. The NHS got on board and offered a post tax salary sacrifice that met financial regs, but the council won't do it. The deal wasn't quite as good as some people hoped as they put about 20% on the supply cost of the system as well as the 1% on the finance!
  2. My son's nursery uses tapestry and they use galaxy tab 3 7" but they are not impressed as they bought 5 and in 18 months been through 3 under warranty - apparently just failed dead, and they've had to pay to have 4 charging ports and 2 screens replaced. It would also appear that I might well be about to pick them up as an informal customer!
  3. We just installed it using gpo, and imported and configured the gpo to control it. As long as the RM cert is installed on the machine correctly it'll work fine.
  4. Some sort of locking mechanism?
  5. I've just had a notification from O365 that they are looking into a recurrence of this issue. They say we're affected but I'm not seeing an issue and no-one has reported it to me as a problem.
  6. It could be a disk issue, but if it's also a problem between VMs I wonder if the OP needs a nic driver update. He's already said there is no option to turn off VMQ, so I wonder if a nic driver update will give that option (or fix the issue completely like my last Lenovo server update did)
  7. Still not a router though...
  8. Ummm... Is a ZF7363 not a managed wireless access point? It won't work without: A) a valid licence B) a zone director controller You won't be able to get firmware without a valid support contract. and it's not a router... Send it back.
  9. I've complained twice, once about a late delivery - as you've said, got a months free prime. I also had a delivery that was damaged, it was bed linen and it arrived with damaged packaging and filthy, I refused the delivery, photographed it at the door and complained and got a replacement product the next day and a 6 month upgrade of prime unlimited music.
  10. I've got a few of the 1810-24 and yes they are perfectly competent for a basic deployment and they are passively cooled so completely silent!
  11. Nuff said... This is between a backup server the the other side of the site and one of our cluster hosts. (the 1.4gbps is the 10GbSAN connection)
  12. SCCM desktop clients are included in your EES, Server clients have to be licenced as a server with SCCM client installed (i don't actually know if it makes a difference in price) and you get the SQL instance for free too as long as you only run the SCCM site database on it.

  14. Ok, it looks like your licence server has either been de authorized by microsoft or by an update. Happens sometimes. On the right of that box is a 'start rd license manager' link hit that. when the licence manager comes up, have a shufty and see if the server is listed. If it is, right click on it, go to advanced and reauthorize - see what happens. if it isn't listed, right click all servers, click connect and stick in the fqdn of the server, click connect and see if you get anything. If you still get nothing then you probably need to remove the licensing role and re-add it, then using your EES/OVS details re add the licences to it once it has appeared in the licensing servers list. Hopefully it won't be that difficult!

  16. probably there is something else wrong... Can you screenshot what you're seeing that suggests a licence manager issue?

  18. You've broken your licence somehow... For 32bit OS: Delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSLicensing For 64-bit OS: Delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSLicensing and HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\MSLicensing
  19. Grabbed from the HPE spec sheet... RAID Support RAID 6, 60 (Advanced Data Guarding) NOTE: RAID 6, 60 can be enabled with a minimum of 512 MB FBWC RAID 5, 50 (Distributed Data Guarding) NOTE: A minimum or 512 MB cache is required to enable RAID 5, 50 support of the Smart Array P420i RAID 1, 10 (Drive Mirroring) RAID 1 ADM, 10 ADM (Advanced Data Mirroring) RAID 0 (Striping)

  21. I've 'fixed' it. It would appear that something in my IE policies has disabled fast path authentication for NTLM which meant 2 things. 1. IE wouldn't login 2. Other browsers wouldn't even try. I've disabled fast path in the LDAP plugin and now it works. Now all I have to do is work out why it takes 30-45 seconds to log in.
  22. I was under the impression that all editions of windows from 7 onwards could *read* bitlockered devices, but only ultimate and enterprise could *encrypt*. I don't think anyone else's OS are able to read it.
  23. We use the Lenovo tab3 7 essentials, they're about £50 from Argos.
  24. So my last 2 remaining 08r2 boxes are the Moodle server and the WDS server. I'm going to deprecate the WDS server soon anyway so I'm not worried about that, but I thought I'd give an in place upgrade a go, all seemed to go well. I'm going to say at the outset that I didn't set this up, it's one of the few remaining things left over from my predecessor and it's Moodle 2.3.1 (so pretty old now, but it works). I also suck at IIS! Initially when I went to http://moodle I got the IIS landing page where I used to get either: a redirect page and then a successful login if the user was in the OU in the LDAP module (admins aren't) or a login page with http://moodle/login/index.php?authldap_skipntlmsso=1 on it. I added in at the root of the site in 'default document' a 'user/profile.php' entry, which is the page you get after a successful SSO, and then below that a 'login/index.php' which is the page you get if you don't get a successful SSO. That stops the default IIS landing page coming up. I've been through all the moodle documentation, and 2 other 3rd party guides and as far as I can tell it's all configured correctly. Anyone seen this before? Anyone got a clue, because I haven't.
  25. Get out...
