  1. I would recommend an 'out of town' premier inn too. I think I'll be booking myself in at the Elstree and Borehamwood one as it's only a 20 min train ride away
  2. Can you not just right click and log in or is that a V3 feature?
  3. We're about to go with Moodle from the same company as @bossman They're working on our server as I speak. Previously we have used Fronter but as some others have said a lack of user-friendliness and a poor layout (even after the redesign) has meant that staff barely use it.
  4. Closest I can see is radar chart but nothing that looks precisely like that
  5. If you only want to do this for machines and not users can you use the public desktop? Use GPP in the machine context instead and add your shortcuts in a separate gpo for the group of machines you want them to apply to
  6. It says the iPads were "borrowed" so maybe from apple themselves or he knows a bloke who knows a bloke
  7. oops my bad lol!!
  8. There is footage of the landing and the bird that was tangled up flying away but I guess that's why you have a spare
  9. Do you have a full version of Acrobat? It looks like it's some kind of add-on from somewhere. Try running with no add-ons and see if it goes away
  10. Apparently this was his first jump www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6HL0avLGPI
  11. I used this it means you can install the keys to the server and activate the clients all from a lovely (well convenient anyway) GUI. Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) 1.1 (x86)
  12. Unless you have control over group policy getting the clients to use your wsus server may prove awkward. It can be done with scripts at start up but these may be awkward to apply to all your machines without group policy also.
  13. Here is the Authentication section from my config.inc.php /*********************************************** * Authentication settings - read AUTHENTICATION ***********************************************/ $auth["session"] = "nt"; // How to get and keep the user ID. One of // "http" "php" "cookie" "ip" "host" "nt" "omni" // "remote_user" $auth["type"] = "ldap"; // How to validate the user/password. One of "none" // "config" "db" "db_ext" "pop3" "imap" "ldap" "nis" // "nw" "ext". // Configuration parameters for 'cookie' session scheme // The encryption secret key for the session tokens. You are strongly // advised to change this if you use this session scheme $auth["session_cookie"]["secret"] = "This isn't a very good secret!"; // The expiry time of a session, in seconds. Set to 0 to use session cookies $auth["session_cookie"]["session_expire_time"] = (60*60*24*30); // 30 days // Whether to include the user's IP address in their session cookie. // Increases security, but could cause problems with proxies/dynamic IP // machines $auth["session_cookie"]["include_ip"] = TRUE; // Configuration parameters for 'php' session scheme // The expiry time of a session, in seconds // N.B. Long session expiry times rely on PHP not retiring the session // on the server too early. If you only want session cookies to be used, // set this to 0. $auth["session_php"]["session_expire_time"] = (60*60*24*30); // 30 days // Cookie path override. If this value is set it will be used by the // 'php' and 'cookie' session schemes to override the default behaviour // of automatically determining the cookie path to use //$cookie_path_override = '/mrbs/'; // The list of administrators (can modify other peoples settings). // // This list is not needed when using the 'db' authentication scheme EXCEPT // when upgrading from a pre-MRBS 1.4.2 system that used db authentication. // Pre-1.4.2 the 'db' authentication scheme did need this list. When running // edit_users.php for the first time in a 1.4.2 system or later, with an existing // users list in the database, the system will automatically add a field to // the table for access rights and give admin rights to those users in the database // for whom admin rights are defined here. After that this list is ignored. unset($auth["admin"]); // Include this when copying to config.inc.php $auth["admin"][] = "127.0.0.1"; // localhost IP address. Useful with IP sessions. $auth["admin"][] = "administrator"; // A user name from the user list. Useful // with most other session schemes. $auth["admin"][] = "mjf"; $auth["admin"][] = "eac"; The $auth["session"] variable is the important one here. It gets the user id from the logged on users windows account the ["type"] variable is obsolete with this method so can be ignored The $auth["admin"] variable can be set with the usernames you want to have as admin users. Is IIS select your directory for MRBS and add application if you haven't already and set this to an integrated pipeline .NET 2 application. You'll need to change the authentication method to windows and turn off extended protection in the advanced settings. Bit of a faff but I couldn't get ldap to work effectively enough and this eliminates the need for the staff to have to remember to use their windows login again to get in to the system (yes they struggle with single sign on too).
  14. I didn't bother with that I just set it to windows authentication and the ntlm-auth login method. Logs them in automagically and you just need to put the admins in the config file
  15. I would suggest you enable logging for the site so you can see what is being requested and what is being sent from the server just until you get it running. Also try firebug or developer tools to see what your browser is requesting and what the error is. If you turn on remote error messages you can get a more details error on your browser or you can browse to the site on the IIS server and your 500 error should be explained edit: I do have it set up here on IIS 7.5 but I can't remember every step I needed to get it working
  16. No mention of this yet but I use PS3 Media Server on my Win 7 pc Decodes the vid on the fly so does need a fairly up to date machine, but it's very reliable and will stream movies,music(with Itunes library compatibility), and pictures straight to the PS3. I hoping to move this to a linux box solely for this purpose as the playback occasionally stutters if someone else is using the PC.
  17. Worked for me too. Can't use any spaces or space substitutes (%20 or both make it display blanks).
  18. I'll be going for one again this year. Last year was a little bit of a disaster I thought but others were fairly impressed. It's the little flecks of ginger I'm particularly disappointed with!
  19. It's all to do with the positioning. Make them behind text (Wrap Text\ Behind Text) and then take a look at the position (Position \ More Layout Options). You can then set it to an absolute position on the page and Lock Anchor so it will never move. You can also set it to a absolute position relative to the page but this is more complicated as it's done with percentages. Useful if people are going to change the page margins though.
  20. My town's not on there, as usual. Had to pick the closest which was Norwich Airport lol
  21. Just in case someone else has this problem the relevant options in php.ini are magic_quotes_gpc = On and magic_quotes_runtime = On This makes php automatically escape characters that would otherwise cause these errors.
  22. There must be another way as I have two of these systems running on different machines and only get the problem on one. something in php.in to make this a global setting?
  23. I'm getting a bit puzzled by this. We have a mentor system so that the teachers can add mentor sessions, concerns and follow up data. This has been sent to us from another school and I have adapted it to our needs. If they add a concern that contains quotes (' or ") it throws a wobbly and the following error appears Query INSERT INTO tutorial_data (student_id, tutorial_date, teacher_id, details) VALUES ('9990', now(), 'admin', ';'' ) Result You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '';'' )' at line 2 I have a copy of this system on my computer and do not get this error. My guess is it's something to do with the configuration of php/MySQL somewhere but I have no idea where to start. Works fine without quotes so it's getting stuck with not escaping the characters correctly. Can someone point me in the right direction on this as web coding is not a strong point of mine.
  24. any idea what what be occuring here. Chrome and HAP 7.5 It's always blank even if I add static bookings edit: same in IE
  25. Looks good and as though it will do what you want find it here as some links are commercial product with same name
