  1. @mikes, you have no idea of the situation I came from last year, LOL. The poor guy has just about lost all responsibility since I quit bailing him out.
  2. Might as well 'fess up and say you don't know when you don't know.
  3. Not sure if the OP is trolling or not, but I have a question: what do you do when you don't know something?
  4. Make sure you give your PM server a FQDN (not .local) and make sure it has a static IP on your network as well as and is NAT'd to an external address on your firewall. Open the ports outlined here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202487
  5. Agreed...however, lets try to help the OP work with what they have while helping them move forward.
  6. He may not have a choice
  7. I don't think Meraki will tie in with LDAP and if he can't externally face the machine running Profile Manager that would explain it. Some sysadmins don't care for externally facing machines like this.
  8. Try Autopkgr. Install it on a second server and tie the repo to your management tool (Munki, Casper, etc.). It will automatically pick up newer versions of packages when it runs and create policies to automatically deploy them to machines in the device scope. Imagine never having to touch a machine for Flash updates!
  9. We use a hosted exchange server that is going away at the end of this school year along with Google Apps. We are absolutely tired of running out of space, maintaining a server, spam filtering, teacher and student confusion, and ll of the other issues that go into maintaining two systems. Go to Google Apps and be done with it. Maintaining two systems is redundant and costs both money and man hours
  10. Do you have a caching server turned on?
  11. OK: I now have CCC backing up a sparseimage of each machine nightly (offset of course) to our NAS. Score one for safety and automation.
