Bump, applications close tomorrow at midday! Cheers all.

Fortismere school in leafy Muswell Hill is looking for a new technician to join our team. Advert is listed here - https://mynewterm.com/jobs/102156/EDV-2026-FS-49845 Our main website is here - https://www.fortismere.haringey.sch.uk/ It's a great place to work, lots of fun kit to play with! I'm the ICT Systems Manager. Please feel free to ask any questions below or via PM. We look forward to receiving your applications!

I've just tried this on my network and I think you need ** at the end for the exploit mitigation exclusion as the syntax for it is slightly different (it talks about absolute paths...) I added the AMSI exclusion yesterday, that alone didn't do the trick, I also needed this. So I needed the above, and these two below, now it seems to be behaving itself and installing fine.

I can tell you it isn't windows 11 specific - happened on a windows 10 test station too. Quickest fix seems to be open up sophos central, devices, computers, find the stations in question. Tick the tickbox on the left of the computers. Manage software at the top. Under 'agent mode' pick uninstall. Wait a couple of minutes, then deploy SIMS to those stations. Wait another few minutes, then back on sophos central pick 'manage software' again and put agent mode back to endpoint. I imagine sophos will fix it in another month or two.

With apologies for resurrecting an old thread, this issue seems to have reappeared this summer - thought it was just a windows 11 issue as obviously we are mostly doing that this summer but did a clean build and window 10 is still affected. Anyone else seeing Sophos blocking/breaking Solus 3 updates? Seems to be very much as described upthread.

Feel free to PM me with any queries, I am the ICT Systems Manager. Good luck everyone!

Just in case anyone comes back to this in future, I think I have a long term fix for clients getting the certificate error when our RDWeb server renews it's certificate - we'll find out in 3 months.... To aid anyone googling, the error our users see on the current version of the HTML5 remote desktop site is: Your session ended because an unexpected server authentication certificate was received from the remote PC. Ask your admin or tech support for help. The problem is that the brokercert.cer gets cached by web browsers, so regular users of the remote system see this error when a new certificate goes on - they either need to delete cached files on their web browser or ctrl-f5 to force a reload of this file. The solution is that we can use IIS headers to tell the web browser not to cache this file. Open IIS Manager, then on your RDWeb site expand the path RDWeb\webclient\config Double click the button on the right 'HTTP Response Headers" Click 'Set Common Headers...' at the top right, then tick 'Expire Web Content' - Immediately, and OK Click OK - you can now close IIS Manager. It's worth making a note of this procedure as it's not clear if these settings will remain in place when you update the RDWeb site. A shout out to Nirsoft ChromeCacheView which was very handy diagnosing and testing this solution, and these guys that have tried to get Microsoft to fix it (and been completely ignored of course) - https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windowsserverdocs/issues/2525
