I wish you luck with this, closest i got a few months ago was to get all home folders listed but only alow access to the user logged on to its folder. E.g. user had to trawl through all home directories to get to there own.

I haven't got a problem with details of my job, or papers i have written or collaborated on, including my name and job title for instance. My main objection was the amount of information it exposed regarding my personal details/circumstance, and also those of my close family. He has also had the cheek to email me to confirm some details of two deaths recently and a birth.

The guy who runs the site has just removed my details from his site. " I have received many thanks from other relatives for having the family tree on my site and you are the first person to complain, especially as the information of which you complain is freely available from GRO records. When you are much older you may appreciate being able to view relatives. It has taken me 20 years to accumulate the information but now it is incomplete. " My reply: not only is the information now incomplete but inaccurate also. Result!

I have a fairly unique surname, I too was concerned by the blatant disregard for any kind of security, how many times have you used your mothers maiden name for a security question? This kind of information is 'publically' available, http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ Surely he should ask permission before publishing information of this kind anyway?

I recently searched for my full name on google looking for a recent document which was published regarding some research i did for a local university. Hoping to find the document for a fellow colleague i found my name listed on somebodies family tree. I clicked on the listing and found my details, place of birth, data of birth, full name listed on the site along with all of my both living and dead relatives on both sides of my family. Although i realise this information is available to the public, should you apply for this information, i was wondering where the guy who runs the site stands legally. I noticed some of the information was incorrect also. This information is not held behind a username and password just freely available to anyone who stumbles across it? Any advice greatly appreciated!!

perhaps you could provide a link to the page in question?

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use DBI; $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:mysql:perltest','root','password') or die "Connection Error: $DBI::errstr\n"; but i need to connect to the server so i assume i can enter a ip address here instead of entering a database name : perltest?

I think a perl script is in order here. We have a number of databases with a default Admin user name in, the user names all appear in the same table in each different database and there are around 100 databases i need to make the change on. Could anyone point me in the direction of a useful resource or jot something down here: re-write the username and password to each database: 100 databases: the admin ID is different in each table so ill have to UPDATE by matching current Username and Password which are all identicle across the 100 databases. sql: Update teachers Set username "admin" Set password "new" where name = "Administrator" But this needs to happen across a number of databases, Any ideas welcome.!!

So they are - My Bad, Log yourself into CMIS Go to 'Returns' | 'CTF' | 'Import CTF' Im not sure if the XML/CTF file needs to be in the $driveletter$/Admin/CTF-In Use the dialog box which opens to browse for your file You have a few tick boxes at the bottom of the dialog box, No tick for - ‘Overwrite core data where clashes occur’ No tick for - ‘Overwrite present data where clashes occur’ Make sure you set entry date for students No tick for - ‘Allocate numbers staring’ Those would be my settings, but you may have guideance on what you need to Tick or Not Tick. Thats the basics, never imported Ks2 results, maybe you should backup before you do this.

I think you need the CTF file not the XML file, import the CTF file in the normal way, CTF_IN

We need the data as follows Heading: Student_id F_Name S_Name SubjectGrade1 SubjectGrade1 SubjectGrade2 etc etc (Inline) but it has come (Each grade on seperate line) Student_id F_Name S_Name SubjectGrade1 Student_id F_Name S_Name SubjectGrade2 Student_id F_Name S_Name SubjectGrade3 Student_id F_Name S_Name SubjectGrade4 Can anyone suggest away in excel to easily change this data into the correct format?

EduGeek, netiquett and legal consequences
danIT replied to Dos_Box's topic in General EduGeek News/Announcements
Who decides when i post should be removed, if it is objective and non-bias should it be removed if gives a fair reflection. I dont think anybody who uses this site effecitivly wishes to trash companies publically but wish to make fair statements about good and bad practices. I know of other well known forums who have had to turn moderation on in order to prevent spam etc, Plus i hate censorship, Edugeek had a nice heavenly glow until i recieved that message regarding Etiquett and legal consequences. Have you had the complaints looked at my a solicitor or anyone in the legal profession to actually let you know where you stand? I recently recieved bad workmanship on my car following a full service, i search the net and find multiple posts from all aorund the UK flaming that particular garage are they being taken to court....i think not its an opinion? Edugeek should be proud that companies take such notice of this forum, they obviously think it carries some weight. We'll all be a managed service soon anyway lol -
Today our VLE went down, the databse is stored on one server, the data files on another and the actually software/scripts on a webserver, the webserver stopped talking to the data server for some reason, its been resolved. can anyone here think of a way of making this instantly recovrable? could we make a virtual server to kick it to action when a server fials for some reason? any ideas welcome?
