Perhaps i'm worrying unecessarily Staff laptops on old domain with offline file synch on their home drive Local profiles only offline synch set in group policy Need now to join laptops to the new domain old domain still available My plan Backup home drive to external hard disk log on as local admin - turn off file synch in folder options Remove from domain into workgroup Connect to physical network Join to new domain Move required files to new folder Should this be ok? Have I missed anything?

Have set up a new virtual network based on server 2008 R2 in vmware Have migrated user accounts and all is working well Have set up trust between old and new domains We are now ready to remove the fully serviced packed XP client machines from the old domain and then rejoin them to the new. In the past I have just moved them off old domain into workgroup and then from workgroup into new domain This time we have over 300 machines Is there any easier way? We really want to decomission the old domain when the new one is up and running Thanks in advance

Own hosted Joomla on embc network Set it up tried it from my college email account which is hosted by embc - worked fine However any other non embc domain email account does not work It appears embc are banning any none hosted email accounts in the from field Is this right? What can I do?

As a 1000 user secondary school who already hosts its own website and VLE we are considering bringing email - which is currently hosted by EMBC - in house. We would appreciate fellow 'Geeks' comments on the advantages and disadvantages of doing this and any particular pitfalls we could fall into!

Schoolcomms now has web client so I can text from my old rocking chair in front of the roaring fire. Support has always been excellent.

I want to set a separate level of password complexity for staff and students I believe each active directory domain can only have one policy I read that there are progs that add different levels of complexity for different groups Any of them any good? Any other recommendations? Thanks

Another vote for Schoolcomms user friendly allows you to text or email nearly all groups available in Sims. Automatically fetches first day absence and allows txt and then process reply. Can even set up own groups with members not at the school eg our community classes after school. Now has a web client that can be used from my rocking chair infront of my fire! Having said that judging from the messages we have recieved schools are not going to be allowed to close in the future ....I havent got the letter with me but paraphrasing.... " Police and local authority warnings not travel except in an emergency do not apply to people travelling to work!"

After reading this thread I need some clarification; I run a webserver at our college; Server 2003, iis 6 with PHP and Mysql This runs our moodle, joomla and a number of other PHP/SQl apps like calandars etc At the moment these are all run from one database with tables with separate prefixes etc. mainly because I was new to sql when I set it up. I am unlikely to want to split these on to different servers Is having them all in one database causing any performance hit? Is it likely to cause any problems in the future? Thanks Mark

Although we are a secondary we had one ourselves only a few weeks ago I suggest you read The importance of ICT: information and communication technology in primary and secondary schools, 2005/2008 / Thematic reports / Documents by type / Browse all by / Publications and research / Ofsted home / Ofsted - Ofsted These inspections in primary and secondary provide the data for these reports Do you know who the inspector is?

If you ask for Terry Candy he's the man! You can have 6 groups all mapped to the drop downs in WAT Group 1 is the site default which is what you get when you don't log in. The idea is that you make this block nearly everything forcing users to log in to pick up their policy. The only fly in the ointment is that the log in sessions appear to be limited to around 10 mins forcing users to log in 6 or 7 times in an hour long internet based lesson. This can be changed but i'm told it is an embc resource issue each session using valuable system resources - but i'm working on it!
