We have 1 main DC account that only the Systems Admin uses (me) to install stuff on servers - gets disabled once no longer needed. Noone is allowed to rdp into the servers unless at the console or has the authorised permission to do so aka myself and the other admin We have IT Admin group which allows read access to certain folders and permissions for what is required (DHCP, GPO which is locked down using AGPM, DNS) We have LAPS setup now, whereas before the administrator account was renamed to IT with local admin privileges with a password that was changed every month. We now will be adding a local IT account that we can use to install stuff and troubleshoot (password will change every 4 weeks) - if they are admin machines they will have different permissions and so on. Everything is mostly controlled via SCCM and GPO so our IT Team have no reason to install stuff manually.

Ahh enough said

Going on from @Primus, how big is your network? I would highly recommend putting something like pfsense in place.

Ah i see, sorry. In terms of Windows Firewall, i am pretty sure it wont work. It has to be an edge Firewall.

When you set the ip, you should leave the gateway out. Other than that all i can think of is 1) do you have a firewall which you can administer? If not ask someone who can administer is to put a block rule for that ip. 2) get something like pfsense which can do this, but overkill for one machine. 3)do you have web filtering software? This maybe depending on what you got should be able to block all internet traffic

If it was uni emails, surely they could have rung IT up and deleted the mail.

Check the host server logs for any issues. Might help indicate an issue

4.7 has killed alot of things in my environment. Exchange, SIMS, some in house software!

Regards Mukesh

Ring up one of your last preferred sellers, ask them to find out for you. I know my one would and also speak to MS on my behalf to get me logged in

Sorry if i am bumping threads @elsiegee40 I look at the JDs and see what the salary is compared to what i do, if significantly higher i go to my boss and use it as an excuse to get more pay

Hi Curt, if im not mistaken @Arthur posted something on here 2 weeks ago about OneDrive no longer needing to be synced. You can also use Liebensraum's OneDriveMapper for what it says on the tin, mapping a users onedrive to a driveletter. I used it when i started testing OneDrive and it worked great.

I can give you a guide i followed online tomorrow -not at a machine at the moment, sorry apur

We have a walkie talkie comm protocol which i can share on monday when i am back from holiday

Quick question- what Version SCCM and what ADK are you using? have you tried recreating the boot images

We do this. Moving to adding the intake year at the end now. JBloggs17

Has someone changed the sa password?

+1 for OpenManage Essentials If you have prosupport on your dell servers, logs are automatically sent over to dell and fixes provided.(was in malaysia last week and this happened where a drive failed, received an email saying where i would like said drive to be sent to)

Great, happy to hear you sorted it in the end and thanks also for the fix for future reference

On initial thought, Drivers? Otherwise it could be the order of ur ts sequence?(but as you say you copied this from a working one i doubt it) Can you post a snap of your ts sequence?

Iirc SAN certs no longer do internal certs. We have a CA which does the ssl for internal use.

Does anyone use portable devices for staff? Ie use something like miracast to display the screen? Leaving just a tv on the wall?

I thought the same. Started a test VM up for staff to test it out for me in there own time. So far no issues. Everything seems to work the way we want! Although to be fair i haven't updated to the creators build yet. Will do this when i am back from hols and if goes well we plan to deploy to an IT Suite and the Computer Science Department. We have some Sixth Formers who help me test the hell out of things. (One eager beaver even helped roll out papercut mf)

@ass17 you have my life so much easier! Exam departments across our consortium are now using your software too! Do you take donations? If so can you pm me please?
