Just sat through In The Grey. Shame really as love The Gentleman but the film was terrible.

Should do.. although I never got it to work with our exams and senso

This what we use. The biggest issue is intune can take a while to deploy when someone logs on. We are almost 1:1 so it works ok The recent updates seem to improve it auto-link-users-when-deploying-papercut-hive-client-with-microsoft-intune (1) (1).pdf

We automated it all so no emails were needed but we are using Intune.

It seems to do what it says on the tin. You can import groups and add restrictions/balance/overdrafts to them. It even does automation to add a balance each month. I decommissioned my on-site print server over summer, so all cloudy cloud now.

Papercut have released an update with groups now which seems to allow billing per group. I had to remove my old link to entra and use the new one but seems to work.

Hi Has anyone got any experience with these lights? I've just been giving our lighting some tlc and one of them is making a loud buzzing noise. When I've taken it down it looks like the zoom motor is stuck.. removing the cover didn't really show anything obvious as it's a different mechanism than the tilt and turn motors that are belt driven. Just wondered if they are fixable.

I miss my UNIFI network which told me everything.

Hi, I've only worked here a year and I'm still finding stuff. I've just been down to one of the doors that wasn't responding in net2 which I couldn't ping. Took the cover off... NIC is flashing so traced the wore to this little beauty. No markings or brand.. just flashign away screwed in the roof space. Theres no power to it so presume its a poe switch repeater type thingy. I think the security firm must have wired it in cos I have no idea where it goes. There is a VLAN setup for net2 but over half of the devices are just sitting on the main vlan which i am slowly fixing. Fun Fun Fun

Seems to have fixed itserlf this morning... love to know why

Evening, I've got a bit of a weird issue. 2 kids came to me today who can't connect to the student wifi that's assigned to their devices through Intune. I can't work out why they won't connect. Yesterday I was playing with Central as I wanted to try and stop them from connecting to the guest wifi network when the password had been accidentally shared. I was trying to work out mac filterig but gave it up and put everything back. So these 2 clients can connect to other wifi networks on the same APs, and I've reset them, so think I can rule out the device. The DHCP server is fine. I've restarted the DHCP server and checked other devices get leases so that seems fine. It seems to be pointing to the Aruba AP (which I've rebooted). I can see the log on central from the AP's saying connecting all the time (on the right VLAN) Oh and intune reports the newly installed device as 100% compliant with no errors. Not sure if it's something wrong on Aruba that I am missing.. the behaviour is the same on all the AP's. No errors on the DHCP server either... in copilot didn't help (dont think it knows central) Anyone seen this before? Just remembered, I didn make a capture portal on Central but its not assinged to anything

Jack Ryan - Ghost Thingy Run of the mill and very forgettable. I can remember watching Harrison Ford in clear and present danger multiple times back in the day which is miles better than this.

Morning, I managed to get Senso locking down my desktops for the exams period and all is good. We moved to Hive at Easter which I didn't have time to deploy so I just used a simple script to install the printer on logon. I'm back looking at it and wondered if anyone has worked out how to get Hive working in a locked down enviroment. Senso have been good finding out all the exe's I need to allow which I've put in a allowed app policy which allows the Hive app to start. The issue now is to lock downthe interent so they only are allowed to the Hive websites (which is fine) but they have to authenticate with Microsoft which is not working. I'm trying to work out how its allowed at present to auth with standard users as I can't see that my predecessor has opened up the Microsoft URL's. I did test a few sites but it seems to have allowed copilot to run on the web which obviosuly is a big no no. I did look at the cloud filtering logs but it didn't show anyuthing blocked. Anyone got any help or advice?

I've been asked about this earlier this morning. Looks like we will be replacing all our images, Tried this but didn't recognise the faces on group pics. Safe Face AI

As a footnote, BT said they update the policy the day before and everything was configured correctly. Now either someone is telling fibs or their policies take 12 hours to apply. I think someone didn't press run on their end and they don't want to get into trouble.

Its either a coincidence or the magic of posting on Edugeek but something has happened all of a sudden

Yep, still really slow. They said they did some testing last night (twice) and to retest but still slow. I would have hoped even through the Smoothwall it would show some improvement

The Adva has fibre coming in then fibre going out into the Cisco router. The fibre patch cable is massive so i swapped it for a new one. I've never seen these trays before I started here so not sure if they should be this way.

Morning, Just wanted to check if anyone else is on BT and can let me know what speeds to expect. We recently had a backup line installed and migrated to a 1GB/1GB linebut since then the speeds aren't great with our BT Net phones being really laggy. They've asked me to plug directly into the Cisco router which is where these speeds come from. They did sent an openreach tech out to test the line. He looked at the new fibre and said he could test that as it was terminated into a ONT but couldn't work out how to test the existing line as there wasn't an ONT.. it's a direct Fibre into an Adva. All new to me this setup but very frustrating. I actually thought I'd have 2 external ports from my Smoothwall to the new routers sperately but its setup where theres a switch inbetween and both routers share the gateway... when it sees one line down the other one kicks in. It was testing and the redundancy works... just strange. Pretty abysmal service tbh from start to finish, really wish we'd have gone somewhere else.

Hi, Been running this for over a month now..seems fine except. Printers vanish for some reason randomly tray icon shows limited access to the Papercut printer. Worst thing is jobs stuck in the clients Papercut queue and they never go. I had one today where I restarted the spooler.. deleted the printer, deleted all files in the spool folder and the printer icon still showed jobs stuck in the queue.. made no sense. Tried loads of stuff then eventually it disappeared.. no idea what the fix was. The concept seems fine and I like the console... Just random issues whereas mf was rock solid

The new boys episode was one of the weirdest with some great cameos.

I'm sticking with Boys as I want to see it end but agree its lost its appeal now... never watched season 2 of Gen V I forgot I started Doom Patrol after it appeared on the new Sky bit... love Breandan Frasiers character

Greenland 2 Abysmal... Stupid .ridiculous... What the heck has happened to Gerard's career. This makes 2012 look like citizen kane. I actually thought it was the weather satellite one at the beginning he did around the same time. It's on prime video and free

Loads of school trips but we enjoyed it. Kids loved the interactive tour guide... Love places that do this sort of stuff. Just had me operation on my finger ... 30 minute and 3 wires . Made a right mess of it . NHS are amazing

Just got back from a 3-night break in London. Had a great time with my 2 girls doing all the touristy bits and catching a show.. although still sweat over a £8.35 pint of beer. Yesterday we decided to visit Hampton Ciurt without realising how long it would take from our boat stay in the docklands.. we went over tower bridge which was cool. My youngest got the pilot jelly cat from Harrods. My eldest spent ages in the huge Waterstones, and i came back with a broken pinky after thinking i could still throw my daughter in the air safely. I thought it was just bruised but Ive made a right mess and it needs wiring together. This message is a good test in how hard it's going to be to type as its my dominant hand. No driving either, so I need to thumb a lift.. that finger works )
