Sorry about the late reply, AB Tutor released 7.3.0 which generally fixes the issue however, on some machines (5-10 out of 400) it didn't, so completely uninstalled AB Tutor and deleted user profile (may not need to do this but I found some student profiles were saving error default proxy) installed version 7.3.0 and that seems to fix the issue. Big thanks for everyone for advice and guidance !!!! Kind Regards Rav Singh

Hello everyone, big thank you to every one for replying, did speak to AB Tutor technical support and they said they are in the process of rectifying the well known proxy issue with version 7.3.0 (out tomorrow but on the web site already). I'm in the process of pushing it out at the moment will keep up updated on the progress, thanks again for your support chaps ! Rav

Hello Plexer, we have a Classroom Management Solution installed (for the last couple of years) called AB Tutor but only running on some machines.

Thanks for your reply JackcPickup, 3x machines had been down to Malware however, 8x machines had nothing in quarantine even after we ran the AV software.

Hello everyone! Over the last two weeks we have more and more machines unable to connect to the internet in school via the proxy server. When checking the laptops\desktops in question, in Internet Options- Connections- LAN Settings the proxy server address box is grayed out however, the 'Use proxy server' box is checked and when clicking on advanced the HTTP and Secure server is set as 127.0.0.1 port 51139. Please see the attached doc for more info. Can any one help? Many Thanks RavIE ERROR.docx

Big thank you for all replies will try them and report back ! Thanks again Rav Singh

Hi all We are experiencing issues with Windows 7 log on times. When students log in to a machine on the network it takes 3-7 minutes (sometimes longer)for the desktop to appear. we do not use roaming profiles, any ideas? Any suggestions\advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rav

Got it ! Thanks again for all your support and advice Mats, it is greatly appreciated! Cheers Rav

Great Success !!!! Ive just installed Chromium !!! After running the "apt-get update" it installed the update with no errors! I then ran "sudo apt-get install chromium" and it to installed effectively !! Massive thank you to everyone ! Cheers Gents!!! Rav Singh

P.S I got "apt-get update" working and is update now, I had to change user to root by using "sudo bash" command. Thanks again Mats

Thanks Mats for your reply, I have entered the command and have managed to pull some files down but others have failed, is this normal? I have attached a picture please let me know what you think. Many Thanks Rav Singh

Hi Caffrey thank you for your reply, i have carried out the above but still had no joy, I think i may be doing something wrong. i have tried the commands as follows- acquire::http:proxy "eduproxy.bgfl.org/"; no joy acquire::http:proxy eduproxy.bgfl.org/; no joy Any ideas? Thanks Rav

I Have now been able to get to "/etc/apt/" by using the "cd /etc/apt" command however cant work out how to create "conf", sorry to be a pain! Thanks Rav

Hi Mats, Where would i add 'export http_proxy="http://proxynameport" ? Is this the right command 'export http_proxy="http://eduproxy.bgfl.org80"? ('eduproxy.bgfl.org' being our proxy and '80' being the port) also can you point me in the right direction of the apt.conf forum as I cant find it. Thanks Rav Singh

Thanks Mat will try this and get back to you. Cheers Fella !
