What type of texture is on the desk surface?

As there are no hits via web searches other than this thread I'd have to say you're 99.9% certain it's a virus/spyware Wes

Nope not the only one Wes

Insight, PCS? Wes

I'll have a go at that today and see how I get on. Wes

I've got a script somewhere that does that I'll see if I can find it out. Wes

It works internally but I can't get it to publish externally when I try it comes back with a 408 time out issue related to SSL certs? i.e. The page cannot be displayed Explanation: There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Try the following: Refresh page: Search for the page again by clicking the Refresh button. The timeout may have occurred due to Internet congestion. Check spelling: Check that you typed the Web page address correctly. The address may have been mistyped. Access from a link: If there is a link to the page you are looking for, try accessing the page from that link. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technical Information (for support personnel) Error Code: 408. The operation timed out. The remote server did not respond within the set time allowed. The server might be unavailable at this time. Try again later or contact the server administrator. (12002)

Praying may be the only way to get this to work Wes

Has anyone got this working externally I'm still having issues with certificates and 408 time outs? If not anyone know of a good book. Wes

supermicro do one as well.

Right I need some help I think with this I've added an entry to DNS to allow me to connect internally to the remote desktop gateway server without touching the ISA box at all. I'm using my wildcard SSL, however connecting internally using the internal name will then bring up the certificate name error. I'll try and give some examples to make this a little clearer: E.G. remotelab.ourschool.ourcounty.sch.uk is the address we wish to use externally our wildcard ssl is *.ourschool.ourcounty.sch.uk setup the publishing rules in ISA to use this wildcard the servers FQDN is rdgateway.ourschool.internal the wildcard is setup in IIS7 however the wildcard doesn't correspond to the internal server fqdn what do I need to do to fix this I don't want another SSL cert if I can help it as we bought the wildcard so we wouldn't have to, I need to look at this for our exchange box as well (This is using a self signed cert at present) Any help and suggestions would be much appreciated. Wes

Right just wondered what I'd have to change on the TS gateway IIS7 to allow my wildcard to work? I'm getting an internal error 500 when trying to access the site which means the SSL cert is incorrect.My wildcard is *.school.county.sch.uk the outside url is remote.school.county.sch.uk the internal is tsgateway.schoolname.internal how do I attempt to fix this without having to either create a self signed cert or requesting a new cert? Wes

Yeah it seems to be fine just want to publish it now with ISA 2004

A Dell R410 is around £1500 with 16gb ram 2 x quad core cpus that should easily cope with everything you've mentioned. Wes

Anyone know of any good guides in setting up RD gateway and publishing RD Web via ISA? Wes

I'm looking at Schools agreement next year as I'm hoping to move everything over to 2010 (Office, Exchange,Sharepoint), 7 and 2008 R2. As for open office have a look at Go Open Office as this is the first OO with the ability to read and write Office 2007 xml files. No ribbon though Wes

I think itgeek wants to use SIMS so the classes can be used easily as well. I haven't as yet but I'm looking at a company to do it for me. PM me for details. Wes

Which VLE are you using? Wes

ETB Tech was the one I was trying to think of but any others would be more than welcome. Wes

I think one of the sponsors on here (as well as ICT Direct) was a refurb company? Wes

Looking at servers at the moment want to setup some cloud environments to test? Wes

Can anyone let me know of any other refurb suppliers I've used ICT Direct in the past however they don't have what I'm looking for at present? Wes

@neilfisher: I'd say that statement would be the same for all Cat cable 5e and 6. 7 is shielded so it wouldn't have the same issues however installing it isn't a breeze. Wes

Right I think there's a few licensing options Desktop licensing for one cheap but a yearly cost. You could get this just for a few office packages instead however I'd look at Go Open Office as this can read and write Office 2007 files (smaller saved files as well for some reason)
