Don't need to worry about things like that as I have a Offsetting Mortgage that gives me gr8 flexibility for instantly accessing cash at 4% . Best financial move I have ever made apart from buying our first house and selling it 9 years later for over twice what we paid. Rob

You need to register the subdomain, students.domain.co.uk ( a host on a domian ) is different to .students.domain.co.uk ( a domain ) Rob
-
Actually the DNS host would have to support MX on subdomains before 365 gets involved unless your using 365 to do the DNS. I looked at that but did not want MS to be looking after DNS records for my entire domain preferred either my own DNS servers or my registrars Rob
-
The TXT file is there just for the setup process to validate domain ownership, it's not needed once that is done. what happens when you nslookup students.domain.co.uk Does live/365 even support MX's for subdomains? TT

Back when we ran our own squid(guard) we used to block http(s) requests to IP's ( sites not using FQDNs) Never seemed to cause a problem and solved a number of them. Since moving to another product we have not done this, until today when I bothered to work out how to do it (not as easy as squidGuard) So will see what happens on Monday. Anyone else doing this? Rob

How log monitor and log internet speeds?
twin--turbo replied to kennysarmy's topic in Internet Related/Filtering/Firewall
I was trying to do this last december and could not find a product to do it. Spent a week trying! Even our Cisco ASA5520 firewall could not provide data. pfSense may be able to do it. Rob -
What problems are they suffering? Rob
-
accupart are reliable and cheap for screens. Never had a screen take more than 15 mins to replace. You take your chance on the warranty repair for the other fault though. Rob

The management port IP of the AP may be irrelivent to it's operation. So it could be on any IP address. Rob

Yet another BYOD question
twin--turbo replied to RabbieBurns's topic in Thin Client and Virtual Machines
What we do: ( Launching In January ) SSID with a passphrase ( so that the traffic can be encrypted) No Device can talk to any other divece ( to stop our wifi being a hub for pupils to share files, games, music.... Yada) A captive portal that will only give them access to our VDI. So all they can do is access the VDI. Rob -

Yeah, Very very very ( almost no ) WiFi will PXE. Rob -
Have to get warranty extension at POS otherwise they charge a silly amount. Rob
-
Citrix for what? Servers, VDI, XenApp. It can be configured and used in many differing ways to build a solution. Rob
-
Use AB Tutor to log all the machines on. Rob

Too many pitfalls and associated costs for us to consider it as viable. Rob

A couple of PCs have full access to network but no internet access
twin--turbo replied to bodminman's topic in Windows
but what IP. if the sonic is on 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 it can see 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255 if the pc is on 192.168.1.x/255.255.254.0 it can see the sonic but the sonic can't see it. Rob -
It used to be us. Then devolved to the FM company as the system is intended for building security only ( and that is their remit ). Having said that we have had to set up zoneminder to monitor one location. more as a deterant than anything else. Rob

this machine was probably past the end of the subnet on the sonic wall whilst the rest are probably within the subnet of the sonic wall. Rob -

A few weeks back we were developing our BYOD solution, part of which required us to try and block peer-2-peer traffic on our wifi. Meru support were very attentive and helpful but it looked like it was not possible on our hardware. However I mentioned this to Mark at Meru UK, He gave me a call the next day and although he's not the technical guy we chatted and he realised he would be in the area with Paul ( the technical one ) today and said they would try and get through. Tonight we had the pleasure of their company, they fixed one issue and found out that we can achieve our goal of separating p2p with existing firmware. We got one controller configured leaving the easy job to replicate across the other controller tomorrow. With Pauls help this evening we have a number of pointers to improve the install ( done by 3rd party ) which will help us to monitor and maintain it when BYOD is launched. Mark's gr8 at ordering Pizza. Many thanks to you both, hope you got to Edinburgh ok. Rob

Replacement screen Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 0319-3TG
twin--turbo replied to Little-Miss's topic in Hardware
We use accupart who are cheaper than anyone else we have found. Rob -
Makes little odds, you can get a MPLS circuit that is as good as a full leased line. Rob
