Here's a PowerShell script that uses a CSV of destination folders. <# .DESCRIPTION Script to copy files to a list of destination folders. .PARAMETER Source The path to source file(s) to copy. .PARAMETER CSV The path to a CSV file containing the paths of destination folders. The CSV file must include a column named 'FolderPath'. .EXAMPLE CopyToFolders.ps1 -Source foo.txt -CSV destFolders.csv Copy foo.txt to each folder listed in the CSV file destFolder.csv .EXAMPLE CopyToFolders.ps1 -Source C:\Test -CSV destFolders.csv Copy the folder "C:\Test" and its contents to each folder listed in the CSV file destFolder.csv .EXAMPLE CopyToFolders.ps1 -Source C:\Test\* -CSV destFolders.csv Copy only the contents of the "C:\Test" folder to each folder listed in the CSV file destFolder.csv #> param( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [string] $Source, [Parameter(Mandatory)] [string] $CSV ) # Import folder paths from CSV. $destFolders = Import-Csv -Path $CSV # Process the list of folders. foreach ($destFolder in $destFolders) { # Check that the folder exists. if (Test-Path $destFolder.FolderPath) { # Folder exists. Copy source files to folder. Write-Host "Copying to folder: $($destFolder.FolderPath)" Copy-Item -Path $Source -Destination $destFolder.FolderPath -Recurse } else { Write-Host "Folder not found: $($destFolder.FolderPath)" } }

Wheeey! These puns just keep getting feta and feta!

Additionally, swiping left or right switches between work and personal profile (if you're using a work profile).

I'd always thought that Nova-T was it's own product, but it was just the timetabling solution that Capita chose to bundle with SIMS. I could be wrong.

Necessities (at least for me): Stacking storage boxes for quickly grabbing cables, etc. Some reacking or heavy duty shelving. Nice to have: An ornamental Rubik's cube or other fiddly toy. A plant.

And it sounds as though Ofsted will be using super-secret VPN technology because schools do still need to be caught by surprise.

My notes for installing Nova-T6 Satellite include this line: I do remember having to write that after the software was grumbling about missing a license.

Has anyone forte any yet?

"Welcome, to Jurassic Par!"

I'd recommend spending your £15 on some delicious freshly baked croissants instead.

Interesting article about Ingenuity over on arstechnica: https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/01/now-that-weve-flown-on-mars-what-comes-next-in-aerial-planetary-exploration/ Something I didn't know before reading that was just how much of a departure from the norm it is in an engineering sense. Mass constraints meant that they couldn't really use space-rated components with rad-shielding, etc. that would ordinarily be used for deep space missions. As a result it has orders of magnitude more computing power onboard.

"Noone expects the Spanish Ofsted!"

Ooh, that's a good read. I'd recommend reading the full page, though. I got excited reading through the day-to-day tasks and being able to tick off a few things that any half decent IT technician will be able to do: But my heart sank when I read a bit further.

We use Checkmk. Running on Ubuntu. Whatever you use, make sure that you're able to monitor/graph the uptime of your devices. That'll give you a really good insight into power issues at your site.

Does .gov Notify support file attachments yet? That was all that was preventing us from adopting it.

I love this! One thing I've noticed over the many years I've been working in schools is that the 'broken window' effect is never more noticeable than with key caps. Another thing I've noticed is that some children will draw on anything, whereas some other children will only draw on things that have already been drawn on.

Reading this thread, the first thing that comes to my mind is the word 'expectations'. The expectations around use of email perhaps aren't clear enough to students. That's a leadership/culture thing, not an IT thing. However, nothing wrong with having technical measures ready to deploy for the edge cases when they arise.

We sometimes get bounces where a parent's email address autoforwards to some other account of theirs, and the delivery failure is happening after the initial delivery. Could something like that account for the email to their Gmail address not having the expected DKIM and DMARC headers?

Does anyone know whether the new settings will allow me to dictate whether certain users/groups can be allowed to not have MFA, and also whether MFA can be enforced for certain other users/groups? I want to ensure that our staff users have MFA in place, whilst also allowing students to merrily get by without it for now. It really isn't clear (typical for MS IMHO). I get the feeling that there are policies elsewhere in the M365 shanty town of admin centers that determine such things. EDIT: It's looking like everything ultimately runs back to Conditional Access policies? If so, no dice for non-premium tenancies.

There's an option somewhere to limit which users/groups are able to register devices. IIRC by default it's set to allows all users to add devices. You'll want to tighten it up I think, as people may end up with BitLocker keys for their personal devices being stored in your tenancy. I might be wrong on all of that, so happy to be corrected.

I tend to notice this kind of stuff a lot more out of term time, when the rooms and corridors are empty. You really begin to notice how tired everything is looking.

Google AppSheet would allow you to build something that holds the information in a suitably structured way. It may depend on whether you're wanting those things displayed for the inductee, or whether it's really just for HR office use.

Oh deer.

Oh, oh, I know! Because the codebase is garbage and written by a different team in a different language?
