I know its been in your pocket, but has the pupil read what the SENDER sent you (If the pupil was with the sender at the time?) Or; If you were the sender, has the pupil read the text on the RECIEVER phone?
-
I dont think you can view the messages from a web browser or iCloud for that matter Just a suggestion, could the pupil have seen what the person sending you the text had written?
-
Just dont go for XAMPP - Full of security holes.

[ipad] iPad as a 1:1 device with School Owned VPP codes
SovietRussia replied to Sibrows's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Well we don't have 200 devices (yet ) - It is troublesome sometimes, you really have to wait ages and I get impatient and just break it more, but if you enrol them then just leave the devices it seems to work fine Pushing settings and apps is the best thing I have found, much quicker than Meraki or other solutions and App Pushes don't require a end password Ah cheers, Ill give that a try next time- 5 replies

Problems editing already mapped drive in HAP v9.1
SovietRussia replied to Paul-K's topic in Home Access Plus+
A space would deffo cause an error, but not the error being described. The error described is to due to with string sterilization and it finding the character "s'." where it should not be there. [color=#333333]The InnerException message was 'There was an error deserializing the object of type System.String. Encountered unexpected character 's'.'. Please see InnerException for more details."[/color] EDIT: Ahahaha! In one of your string configs you have put s'. and it cannot parse the ' - Remove this? I'm sure its worth a try. (If you don't have any strings like that, I am not sure, but that is what the error is indicating) -

[ipad] iPad as a 1:1 device with School Owned VPP codes
SovietRussia replied to Sibrows's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
We here are not doing 1:1, but the most sensible solution would be to create a Apple ID for all the students, then give them the VPP Codes to redeem themselves? We use configurator for initial deployment but then we use Profile Manager for MDM. We use Configurator to install the paid apps using the VPP codes that are imported. But we found, if you purchase 30 copies of Keynote. You will only have 29 codes left for redeem as you have to redeem one to get the IPA file to import into configurator. CRAZY?! So we ended up going into the App Store on the one device that did not get it, signing into App Store and just re-downloading the app. But in response to your actual question, I would say that most people do it like so... School purchases school specific applications like Keynote and Pages The students then are responsible for app purchases if they are personal ones If the Maths department needs a specific paid app, they use their capitation to purchase it and then get the students to redeem the codes? But Meraki is the only MDM I have found that can do VPP well, Profile Manager certainly cant, and its Apple's own product. On a personal opinion though; You are going the right way with 1:1, we have not here and it has been challenging, they are just not designed for a multi-user deployment.- 5 replies

[php] stop students accessing parts of intranet
SovietRussia replied to Admiral208's topic in Web Development
You cannot use Windows Auth with those browsers, as far as I know - Never looked into it as we use IE here. -
[php] stop students accessing parts of intranet
SovietRussia replied to Admiral208's topic in Web Development
Yeah it will be asking you to login, if you are using IE on a domain PC, it should auto do it for you. You have to login with domain\username style Place this code where you currently include the file. $username = $_SERVER['AUTH_USER']; $split = explode("\\", $username); // Our domain format is STUDENT\User for our staff ones it STAFF\User $domain = strtolower($split[0]); if($domain == "staff") // Replace STAFF with whatever format your domain is in, ie STUDENT, STAFF. { include 'support.php'; } else { // Student here } ?> -
[php] stop students accessing parts of intranet
SovietRussia replied to Admiral208's topic in Web Development
Are you using Windows Authentication on IIS? If so, you can use a simple script like this one... $username = $_SERVER['AUTH_USER']; $split = explode("\\", $username); // Our domain format is STUDENT\User for our staff ones it STAFF\User $domain = strtolower($split[0]); if($domain == "staff") // Replace STAFF with whatever format your domain is in, ie STUDENT, STAFF. { // Staff only stuff here } else { // Student here } ?> Sorry hurriedly written. EDIT: Limitations: Must be using IE -

[android tablet] Recommend me an Android tablet
SovietRussia replied to jlucas's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
Nexus 7s? -
Sure; Supervise the devices using Configurator adding in the Enrolment profile that Profile Manager generates for you The devices appear in Profile Manager Push apps and restrictions wirelessly via APNS Because the source is identifyed as a MAC SERVER, Apple do not require a end password on the devices for app installs. Perfecto.
-
That is why, personally we use Profile Manager along with Configurator for the supervision.
-
You cant push apps wirelessly via Configurator. Configurator is a first time deployment model.

Finding SNMP OIDs to monitor for Procurve Switches
SovietRussia replied to DrPerceptron's topic in How do you do....it?
There was a MIB kit on HPs site, but it was a bugger to find it. Ill see if i still have the files on my PC. -
Yeah... You are looking for a MDM (Mobile Device Management). Cloud based ones like Meraki are awesome and I would recommend it (Also free!) What you do is "Enrol" the devices into Meraki so they can be managed externally, then using the Meraki Dashboard, push apps to the devices using Apple's Push Notification Service. If you have a mac, even better option is Profile Manager, this allows you also to push apps via APNS but does not require you to enter a password for the Apple ID on the devices. If you need any help, feel free to drop me a PM.
-
You may need to give the teacher access to the Meraki dashboard so they can turn it on themselves But yes, Jarred is correct. That setting applies to when Youtube was pre-installed by Apple.
-
Meraki can also do VPP deployment. Find the app in the Meraki App finder window thingy Import your VPP Codes into the window when it appears And you are done! You will have to type in the Apple ID passwords on the devices manually though to redeem. -- When we were doing our iPad deployment, we did paid apps via Configurator and free ones can be done OTA, as we use Profile Manager and not Meraki.

Ipad Deployment - Server Choice & Information
SovietRussia replied to Darylrese's topic in Mobile Devices & Tablets
There is no need for a extra mdm then, Profile Manager is a MDM
