OpenText's ZCM/ZPM educational prices are available, and whilst it does have Novell's heritage behind it, it's more than happy with EntraID. https://www.opentext.com/products/zenworks-configuration-management

I presume that OES 11 is not supported? T

Good to see - now, I've got a question. Although I'm not a schoolcomms administrator, I've been told that I can't use schoolcomms to send out HTML emails (although I'd actually want to send out both text and HTML). I'd like to copy and paste in some HTML and have been told it won't allow it to happen. Are there any plans to allow HTML? I'll try to make it to BETT and see, but an answer in advance would be good so that I don't have to look stupid at the stand!

I've heard of this occurring in other places near me, and plenty in K-12 sites in the US, but no direct experience - thank God. With anything like this - if you can restore from backup then do so, even if it means losing some work. Please don't pay. It does leave something behind to prevent re-infection - and would you really trust that computer agajn, knowing that it has been compromised and not totally cleaned up? Tom

I support 50% Macs, perfectly happily (well apart from the cost and the extra workload they place on me). However for school use, I'd still recommend PCs. Most of the software staff and students need is PC based, and support is easier to obtain.

No, unfortunately not. The next one is forecast to be Nov 3rd-6th, 2014. Now to try to get the funds together. I paid personally last time for the travel. Ouch. T

Anyone tried the iprint appliance? Looks good.

Did you join the TTP?

Still use it in production along with OES 11. I started with NetWare 2.10 via 3.11 and so on. It beats the hell out of Windows. It's happy with hundreds of connections at a time and saves money on hardware too. Mix it with Zenworks and users are happy. Thousands of users and workstations; clustering and uptime brilliant. No need to migrate. Tom

I have to ask.... Fan oven or Conventional? 190 degrees for a fan oven perhaps? T

I know that some places have moved to .ac.uk domains with ja.net They know what they are doing.

NW2.01 to OES, (OES11 beta), ZCM. Yes, Novell products are still alive! T

Novell TTP Organization

Pick away.

The MacOS support in ZCM 11.2 looks good. Only about 10 years after I first asked for it... Have you taken a look at membership of the TTP?
