Allow Host pairing. Attached image. Rob

Hello - i'm afraid not. The teacher used another resource so I never followed it up. I'll keep an eye on your post for future reference. Rob

Hello - our staff are to be given a laptop each for use. They will be taking it home etc. Do any of you have a laptop loan form that you would be willing to share? I just want to make sure I am covering all points before it goes out to sign. Thanks, Rob

Sorted - was a tick box in Meraki!

I have a set up a number of iPads for a primary school. They are supervised using Apple Configurator 2. I have ticked the box which states 'Allow pairing with non configurator hosts' When I connect to another machine i.e. a teachers laptop to copy photos from it does not do anything. Nothing shows in Explorer. When I open iTunes I get the attached message. Surely I should be able to connect it to any computer??

Hello, Trying to access a site but get connection with server closed. On smoothwall i'm getting a 403 Client Error Forbidden. Any ideas how I get around this? The site is PingPong - SPOT Networking and we are trying to use the web app to host. Thanks, Rob

I have 2 hosts, both have 2 of these cards in. After running the update to ESXi 6, one host lost connectivity across all 8 NICs. The other host was absolutely fine! After a long troubleshooting process I had to remove the cards from the host, plug in to a PC and update the firmware. Was such a pain to do and the HPE website is awful! But i'm back up to full strength. Just a heads up for anyone who hasn't upgraded to ESXi 6!

Works like a charm! Put off updating to Windows 10 in any of my schools after start menu issues right from the off. This solution worked first time and with a bit of tinkering is exactly how I want it. One school down, just a few more to go!

Thanks guys. I updated SQL and wordpress today and it seemed to pull itself around. I'll definitely implement your suggestion also.

All plugins disabled and still the same. It takes roughly 40s for TTFB

Still slow when usung W3 Total Cache. Running on IIS.

Last week wordpress site running fine. Today it is dog slow. Nothing changed and no plugins need updating. Server is up to date and has been restarted. The site loads so its not an access/firewall issue. Any suggestions on where to start?

I create my perfect start menu, export it and deploy. When a user signs in some of the tiles are missing.The worst app for this is VLC media player! Annoying

I'm not using the store at the moment so that's why I remove them all. I'm still stuck on trying to get rid of the 'Contact Support' and 'Windows Feedback' from the start menu.

I'll check on a machine this morning

@Tefters - I only used those 3 commands. Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage They remove all provisioned apps for all users (I used the same in Windows 8.1). However on the occasion I mentioned above it left some behind and even trying to uninstall using package name is failing My unattend.xml file for sysprep is pretty much the same as Windows 8.1 - I just recreated it with the Windows 10 EDU WIM. I setup the account this way I want it and use the CopyProfile part of the unattend.xml

Doesn't seem to want me to remove then folders :-(.

Hello, My image of windows 10 has been going pretty well. Sysprep has been fine, SCCM package/SCEP install has all gone smooth. My problem is with the start menu. I have redirected it as I did in Windows 8.1 and set GPO to remove common programs which it has. All of my shortcuts appear but I have others that shouldn't be there such as Alarms & Clock, Contact Support etc. Does anyone know how to get shot of these? I used the following commands before capturing the image to remove the apps: Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage Image attached also. Thanks, Rob

How did you create your unattend.xml file? Did you use the Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer. Also do you use the copyprofile option for Windows 10?

Hello, One of my ESXi hosts is being really strange! From the image above you can see the NetXen HP cards, some are picking up a range of IPs and others are not. If I check again in about 10 - 15 mins those that have not picked up a range will have and those that did do not any more. Some times none of them pick up a range. I've had to remove all 8 NICs from the vSwitch as when they all state 'none' in the network column it knocks the network off. I have a second host which has the exact same config and the exact same network cards in and it is working fine. None of the cables going in to the problematic host have been changed and go in to the exact same switch as the working host. No errors on the switch. I've done all the usual rebooting of servers / switches. All VMWare updates have been applied to both hosts. Oh and i'm running ESXi 6. Any suggestions guys? Cheers!

It sure is

Hello, Can anyone spot any problems with this? I need a WPAD for my DirectAccess clients. GP applies the proxy every 15 mins which is annoying when off site as the internet stops working until you untick the proxy. function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { //Declare proxy strings as variables var proxy = "PROXY proxyserver:800"; // IP not to use proxy if (shExpMatch(url, "http://10.64.*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "http://192.168.*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (isPlainHostName(host)) { return "DIRECT"; } // URLS not to use proxy server if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver1*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver2*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver3*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver4*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver5*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver6*")) { return "DIRECT"; } if (shExpMatch(url, "*internalserver7*")) { return "DIRECT"; } // Apply proxy if machine is on internal network if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.64.0.0", "255.255.240.0")) { return proxy; } if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.0.0.0", "/20")) { return proxy; } else return "DIRECT"; } When i'm at home I can browse to the WPAD on the server and download it so connection to it isn't the issue. So - In School via WPAD = internet fine // At home via WPAD no internet access. Thanks, Rob

Boooo :-(

Staff can browse to the C drive. All clients are Windows 8.1 Enterprise - no other management tools are in place. Rob

Hello, I have staff members setup as local admins on their laptops using GPO and restricted groups. They are all a member of stafflocaladmin which is a member of the administrators group on the machine. When they try to install software it brings up a message about no disk space available when there clearly is. If I log on as a local administrator user the software installs as normal. I have checked that the stafflocaladmin group is a member of the administrators group on the machine. Has anyone come across this? Thanks, Rob
