Sounds insane, but have you tried removing one of the affected laptops from the domain, then re-adding it? I take it you're talking about basic security policies and not GPO software deployments?

Unfortunately the clients are 7 Pro, however I guess moving them over to Enterprise is the best option. We had been hoping Remote Web Access was the solution.

Budget is flexible... Ideally to give staff remote access to mapped drives/ apps.

Can I have recommendations for a remote access solution? We've been considering Remote Web Access using Windows Server Essentials, but we're struggling to find others using it.

Has anyone ever set this up? Reads as remarkably easy. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/jj628152.aspx

I've seen this with the N Computing technology, I have to say I didn't like what I saw. One example was ' i7 workstations' sitting in an IT suite, with pupils sitting alongside the devices. I suspect whoever installed the solution was to the blame for selecting the on show location. The clients themselves seemed to do the job, of what I saw anyway. Ironically the competitor is offering the multipoint solution, our solution (VDI) can't come close to it for cost and is frankly overkill for a primary school. We've decided to offer thick clients instead, largely due to the school not having a managed support contract with us.

Which is?

Indeed, in fact we were alarmed at the software they were wanting to run - 2Simple Collection to name but one, which I'm speculating is circa 10 years old.

Can I please have your views re Thin Clients? We've been asked to implement a thin client solution in a primary school, they want to operate around 79 thin or zero client terminals. The school are looking to run a selection of software titles (old and new), so the need wouldn't just be word processing and internet. I suspect we'll be priced out of the water as I know the school have sourced costs from a competitor offering an N Computing solution. Our mind-set is ensuring a decent server solution, implementing SSD drives in place of SAS for one. However if I'm totally honest I'm more inclined to offer a thick client. The school doesn't have a support contract through us, plus the support they to take (from the LA), is only a once a week visit. I'm pretty sure implementing a thin client solution on the that scale, would require more than a once a week 3hour visit.

Does anyone know if device control has been beefed up more than v5? How does Device control work in ESET endpoint products? - ESET Knowledgebase

Nevertheless, put the ECML to shame

We have always procured Netgear switches, as well as the Cisco Small Business range, I've always felt they provide a cost effective solution, even more so now with lifetime warranty. Other than running the occasional firmware update, which on the large seem very stable, experiences have been positive. Having said that, we also offer high end HP as well, however not every client has a high end budget to accommodate.

Hi all, Can anyone recommend a reputable IT collection/ disposal company for old/ defective IT equipment?

What are your thoughts on usage so far?

Are any of you running the UAP-AC access points?

After explicitly requesting a DVI-D to DVI-D cable, a reseller has supplied me with a DVI-I to DVI-I cable. My understanding if that DVI-I supports both digital and analogue. So my question is can I simply remove the four additional pins at both ends of the cable?

It's definitely https, I suspect in that case it's the latter point. Thank you for that.

The IIS splash page.

Can anyone explain why users from a high school trying to access their OWA are being presented with an IIS message after OWA authentication. We have some staff from a high school visiting our school. We've told them to communicate with IT at their side, but at the same time want to know why it might do this. Has anyone experienced this before.

Interesting re Ubitquiti, I'll delve into both that and ClassWatch. Thanks once again folks

Nope not migration, it's an issue occurring during folder redirection.

I have a user experiencing an issue when attempting to open a document from within OneDrive for Business using Office Mac 2011. I've attached a image of the message being received by the end user, apologies for the clarity of the image. The user is prompted asking them to enter their professional product key. Has anyone seen this before? Apologies for the clarify in the image.

Having a few issued with folder redirection of the desktop, in that folders will transfer to the new location, but files seemingly are and aren't... Or perhaps I'm going mad!?!?! Has anyone experienced this with desktop redirection?

I have a school wanting to explore options for recording and observing lessons, to help improve lesson delivery. In the past the school has always used Iris Connect, however I'm keen to find out what others have in place. Thanks in advance

Ah, that's a spanner in the works... Thanks for the info.
