That's why they need someone else to come in, who does have attention to detail. -
Unrelated, but possible food for thought: I've never seen people use the academic year in folder paths, so it has to be updated for every user each year when they move up. I've always seen it done with the year they started at the school e.g. intake year 2014. You can always share the folders under a different name that you change, but sticking with an absolute path for that particular student seems a better way to my eyes.

W11 and Office - Strange Behaviour when away from Domain
Bedders replied to icttech1981's topic in Windows 11
We haven't. I've left the old server on, only accessible from that VLAN, with no file shares active..... It's on my to do list 🤣 Sorry! -

We have had a similar issue with Roaming Profiles when we migrated them to a new server years ago; Word had some AutoRecover records pointing to the old location, so when we switched the server off, DNS timeouts meant Word hung/crashed on loading. -
Cyber Essentials - Shared Cover Accounts
Bedders replied to Frodo_Baggins's topic in How do you do....it?
Going through CE Basic/Plus right now. Not a school but the answer still applies, as we had similar query to IASME. Basically shared accounts are a fail. Even if you have a password manager used to log in to a shared account, which provides a record of who enters/accesses a password, it's a hard requirement. Therefore I doubt you'll get away with it but it may be worth enquiring with your assessor. -
Most agreements contain confidentiality clauses so it's unlikely people will offer actual hard numbers. Typically such posts get a better response if you explain a bit about who you are, what your research purpose is, and what are the terms under which anything will be published (if anything)? (NB not in a school any more so I can't help anyway, sorry)

Not a school, and one office, so not really comparable to most people here. That said we've just implemented some HP Aruba 2930f switches stacked for our core, 2 x 1 GB links between each of them, which is plenty for our site. We can expand to up to 10 switches in the stack using almost any Aruba switch and they're easy to manage.

HDUDI....Connecting devices to 4K Interactive TV's
Bedders replied to SeeFights's topic in How do you do....it?
Someone here would probably chime in with something better, but I recall using HDMI over CAT5 converters that weren't all that expensive and allowed the running of HDMI at high quality over distance. Unsure if it's feasable here or at that resolution, it was a few years ago? -
I've used Synologys for years and never really had an issue with them. Some of them are a pain to upgrade their memory if you want, but if you don't run a lot of programs on them, typically they're fine. Loads of programs available from the Synology store. That said, if you have to side-load anything onto there, you may find old or outdated versions e.g. Wordpress are actually underneath the Synology apps.

First Topic on the new update, to say thank you!
Bedders replied to DalekSec's topic in General Chat
Nice work, it looks so fresh! I can still smell the new-forum smell when browsing -
Ok I've just deleted the whole team and created a new Organisation Wide one (and Microsoft's documentation for that doesn't even match the actual process...) which has created the necessary Files and Notes tabs, I'm guessing in the Sharepoint back end.

Thanks for the suggestion - no change when I press Reload. It's never worked for this particular Team, since we started setting it up late last year. That said it's possible that years ago on our tenant, the previous admin renamed or didn't set something up, as we've had a 365 tenancy for many years but just haven't used it (we got migrated from VLSC which required some messing around from Microsoft Support to fix).

Hi everyone, Hoping I can get some clarification here, as Googling this is producing irrelevant results. I've been migrating us over to MS 365 in recent weeks, starting with Teams, then I'll do Office 365, and late this year I'll move our emails to Exchange 365. We have a default 'Everyone' team in Microsoft Teams as per the screenshot below. When I try to go to 'Files' on either the 'General' or 'Teams Feedback to IT' channels I get 'There was a problem reaching this app'. I believe this may have something to do with this Team missing something backend e.g. a Sharepoint site, but I cannot locate a way to add a Sharepoint site to an existing team (if this is even the problem). Hoping someone more knowledgeable than me can point me in the right direction to resolving this. Happy to provide more info if I've missed something relevant. Cheers in advance

Paxton Net2 Door stuck permanently in an unlocked state
Bedders replied to MrEprise's topic in Physical Security
I've used Paxton for years, oh how I wish I'd know this before, thank you! -
I've seen this before where there is a permissions issue to an admin user who logged in - every other profile was trying to access something in their AppData. It was in the Application event log on logging in with a user that didn't work. Deleting that admin user's profile resolved the issue, or granting Everyone full access over the file (I think it's a Start Menu Layout file or something). If you need me to dig out more drop me a PM and I'll take a look when I'm back in the office.
