  1. Paddy, you're a legend. Thank you for your help J
  2. Yep and to be fair, i can't see anything is currently blocked
  3. Hi Paddy, Thank you for looking - sadly still the same issue on 'upload build' process. (I'm struggling to get into the support ticket with my browser - so replied here for speed!)
  4. Oh, Hi Paddy - I think you may already be a contact of the IT Lead at the trust and have put some suggestions our way
  5. Hi all Very rare I start a topic, but I'm looking for any help with uploading a project to Gdevelop.io for a student at one of our schools. We've recently moved to LGfL and the code won't upload to the build server, giving a 'self-signed certificate in chain' error. Coding/building apps is not my forte, but we've removed https decryption for the domains that Gdeveop specify and have allowed the URL's too. (https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/getting_started/batch-install-gdevelop-company-university/#domains-to-be-allowed-for-gdevelop-app-services-to-function-correctly) anybody have an experience they can share?
  6. As a Papercut Hive user (still learning) I’d say you’d be able to have a ‘hybrid’ system. We use Xerox machines and in Hive you add and Publish a printer. Ensure you have the correct driver on a print queue and you’re all good. For machines where we can’t embed the papercut software, printers where the incumbent copier company wants £1200 to update the locked down firmware in two mfds 😡, or for printers we don’t want using a license we just deploy via intune as local printers. I’d say you’d be able to do that as server-based printers too.
  7. Electricity will be massively cheap with the solar and wind. I might be able to retire from my octopus agile profits.
  8. We’re in the process of implementing a trust wide PaperCut Hive deployment. It’s working great so far and staff like it too. They like the scan to google feature and print to any school printer options.
  9. You can use script that auto uploads the hash to your Intune tenant. No messing about with CSV files. We’ve recently used this, and I had the script deploy to all the machines we manage for the trust using our Datto RMM That means for the most part, we turn up, install Windows 11 and the rest runs its self with Intune setup, dynamic groups etc.
  10. Get multiple quotes. Look at how many kWh you are using. Decide whether you want battery storage (more money, more time for ROI but much more flexible) The companies providing quotes should give you a breakdown of panels, inverter type, battery capacity and an estimated ROI for each year. Probably from https://www.opensolar.com (you can do your own if you want too) You can’t have battery storage / inverter in the loft anymore. Has to be external, in a room away from the dwelling or in a ‘fire proof’ room. Ours are in the garage. For me, I just wanted to generate to cover my own use and use the battery through peak periods. Over summer we’re generating way more than needed and now we’re in the export tariff I’m making £25-30 this year (export - grid import - gas use). Over a typical year I’ll probably pay nothing for electric. You’ll need to register with your DNO who will say how much they can accept into the grid - but your installer will help you through this. If you around Yorkshire ish I can recommend a couple of installers. MCS certified of course. Happy to offer any advise I can along the way, just drop a DM if needed.
  11. Yep, we’ve recently moved a school from on prem to Intune managed windows devices which included a clean Win11 upgrade. The laptops required a post win11 firmware update which triggered a bitlocker recovery key request. These were HP 255 models.
  12. I’ve deployed it via Intune - although I didn’t even realise it had a code! If it does we don’t have one. If needs one, you can deploy a powershell script to import the registry details
  13. Nothing required ‘legally’ but just do it. Users won’t even know for the most part. Just make sure you store the recovery key somewhere.
  14. That’s a horrendous request. So many Phishing attacks come from a compromised address of someone you know / internal. Do the LA not have any cyber security professionals ?
  15. Millgate are under no obligation to post specific details of the exploit to the public. Indeed, it maybe that IT specialists and legal teams specifically advised them not to. Just because you want to know, doesn’t mean you can or should. The post was honest and helpful and if you think you could have been affected, it’s seems millgate are open to discussing with you.
