Thanks for the update ebelshaw. We are moving to a Sophos firewall and filter next week so will be asking about this. Having spent some time over the last few days looking at this, my suspicion was that there is an issue with the firewall/filter.

Just managed to get this working.... sort of! On a phone running ios 11.0.2 I went into the wifi settings for our wireless network by pressing the blue information circle next to the SSID Changed the DNS settings to manual and entered 8.8.8.8 which is googles DNS. Then pressed join this network which it did and stayed connected. Whilst connected I went back into the wifi settings by pressing the blue information circle and changed it back to automatic. I am now able to switch the wifi on/off, forget/join the network without any issues! Tried the above by entering our internal DNS server and it wouldn't work. Really strange, not sure where to go from here! Would be interested to see if anyone else can get the above working on their devices.

We are having the exact same issue although our wireless is Unifi rather than Sophos. Unifi support suggested turning off the wifi assist option in settings but hasn't made any difference.

Hi We have a room of 8 Mac's running OS Sierra 10.12.5. They are all domain joined, however I am struggling to restrict their access to Windows server shares, primarily our file server which stores everyone's home drives. If I log onto a Mac with a domain student account and open Finder then click "All..." under Shared, I am presented with a screen showing all computers and servers on the domain. If I click on our fileserver i am able to open up a folder and browse its contents even though this user doesn't have permission on the folder. I am not that familiar with Mac's and this is an inherited setup from a previous network manager. Any help or guidance would be appreciated Many thanks
