We're currently using smoothwall cloud filtering for our chromebooks that years 10-13 have. We're think about getting years 7-9 ipads which we'll manage through endpoint. I dont think smoothwall cloud filter works on ipads. Are there any alternative? We want the device to filter even when they're used at home like smoothwall does now. Any pointers on the best way to manage ipads using endpoint are also most welcome. Im planning on having them working device based with the student setting the password then using o365 through the browser and apps then deploying appropriate apps for them to use

Ah makes sense! Thanks. Feels to me very much like a "not sure where to start situation" but its slowly coming together. By April we'll have our mis, printing and files in the cloud so I shouldn't be far off. I have a lot more to go through for endpoint and Windows 10 but I already use it for ipads and android tablets so I should catch on quickly

When I try to edit records in the o365 admin console it says I can't as its a federated account and will only let me edit details throigh AD. If I'm cutting ad out completely at some point what happens with those accounts that are linked to AD? I'm guessing there's a switch?

We've started moving more serverless. We're at the very start off it moving files to onedrive etc. We're hoping to move completely servesless by next summer. There isn't much guidance on it! Do any of you know some good places to learn a bit more on the process. Like how do you move from a federated setup with an adfs to users logging in via azure?

we have sims hosted and want to try and show out staff calendars in their O355 calendars. I know you can setup sims ID but it doesnt work with the hosted for a number of reasons and trying to get some support from Capita is pointless. I know it can be done just wondering if there was a script or a program banging around that would do it.

Chromebook remote management?
jblackburnHWGA replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Network and Classroom Management
Thanks for the replies I'll give them a look -
is there any software that you can use with chromebook to manage them remote in a classroom. We use ab tutor for the Windows machines so something similar would be very useful especially at the moment. It doesnt have to work off site just something that would would within the domain would be fine. We dont need to deploy anything just see the screen and be able to move the mouse. Basic stuff to help a student without have to touch anything or get close. Just viewing what they're up to would also be great

Onedrive file type blocking by group
jblackburnHWGA replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Cloud Services
Ok seems like you can only block file types for all and not just a group which is annoying. The issue i'm trying to get around is the desktop.ini file being created in the users onedrive account when they log into a desktop. I'm using a shared desktop for all the students. Is there anyway past this? -
Onedrive file type blocking by group
jblackburnHWGA replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Cloud Services
Yea the everyone is my problem as it includes me lol -
Can you block file types by group rather than for all? I've disabled .ini files as we have a shared desktop for students and we get desktop.ini files be created every machine the log into. Problem is i then can't have some software stored on my onedrive or sharepoint space that has ini files in such as the Adobe suite. It would be useful to be able to block .exe files for students and not staff as well. I've not found anything on the net for this just the standard path to disable a file type globally

It will continue to sync on next log on but this is the issue especially if they don't log in before the profile gets wiped. Its in the cons list basically but shouldn't cause you too many issues. There are very few lessons that will be saving large 1gb files like this. The best way to handle it is to make sure the teacher and the student is educated to the changes. They need to know how to check their file has been uploaded using the OneDrive icon on the task bar and also what the little icons in the file explorer mean. Our IT teachers are doing this with students first lesson back to pass on the changes and we've sent an e-mail giving some details to all students You can't be responsible for loss of data if the user isn't following guidance. For smaller files its no problem for bigger files the teacher needs to be reminding them to save through the lesson and giving them a good 5 - 10 minutes at the end of lesson to upload large files. Edits to large files don't take as long as well so saving as they go will help.

Yes its very much a set it over night task the second website basically just said install using /allusers switch "%~DP0onedrivesetup.exe" /AllUsers The add in a task sequence step in SCCM to run the following powershell script #Create PSDrive for HKU New-PSDrive -PSProvider Registry -Name HKUDefaultHive -Root HKEY_USERS #Load Default User Hive Reg Load "HKU\DefaultHive" "C:\Users\Default\NTUser.dat" #Set OneDriveSetup Variable $OneDriveSetup = Get-ItemProperty "HKUDefaultHive:\DefaultHive\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" | Select -ExpandProperty "OneDriveSetup" #If Variable returns True, remove the OneDriveSetup Value If ($OneDriveSetup) { Remove-ItemProperty -Path "HKUDefaultHive:\DefaultHive\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" -Name "OneDriveSetup" } #Unload Hive Reg Unload "HKU\DefaultHive" #Remove PSDrive HKUDefaultHive Remove-PSDrive "HKUDefaultHive"

This is my current list for WIA support agents on my ADFS VM Set-AdfsProperties -WIASupportedUserAgents @("MSIE 6.0", "MSIE 7.0; Windows NT", "MSIE 8.0", "MSIE 9.0", "MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6", "Windows NT 6.3; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.2; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.2; Win64; x64; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.1; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; Trident/7.0", "Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0", "MSIPC", "Windows Rights Management Client", "Mozilla/5.0", "Edge/12", "Edge/13", "Edge/14", "Edge/16", "Edg/80.0.334.2") I'm still not getting sso with this version. I am getting sso with ie11 and old edge. Not sure what I'm missing EDIT - Just noticed my ADFS vm is 2012 r2 and this is a 2016 forum. Not sure if that matters

This is the best time to do the migration for students. You need the sharepoint migration tool to move the docs from on prem to cloud I used this guide for the onedrive settings http://www.edugeek.net/forums/cloud-services/208871-replacing-network-area-my-docs-onedrive.html And i used this website to sort settings for Onedrive so it loads from program files rather than appdata which greatly helps login times https://byteben.com/bb/installing-th...on-experience/ In regards to mapping it as a drive I would drop the mapping and live a simple life. Drive mapping for personal spaces is something thats not really necessary anymore. The onedrive space is very obvious and if you map it to documents anyway they wont save on the machines and lose work

Moving home drives and shared drives to office cloud
jblackburnHWGA replied to chekmate1984's topic in Cloud Services
I've not got as far as the staff share to sharepoint yet but it follows the same sort of process.

Thanks Psydii We have a nice simple setup. Its a girls' secondary with sixthform. We don't have anything fancy so it won't be overly difficult to move. We definitely don't have on prem SQL other than SCCM which will be dropped for Intune. We are a fair way into the cloud currently and some of the stuff that is on prem has licensing to be used with azure instead of AD link such as our filtering. My main sticking points so far is cashless catering and printing both of which I'm sure there are cloud solutions for we can move to For better or for worse we're going full serverless using SharePoint and teams with one on one devices for students. Its our leaderships goal and i'm along for the ride

I'm stuck in our financial end of year so I'm stuck with suppliers that are already on the system. They seem to be struggling to quote me at the moment and keep saying solution. They want another meeting to discuss I need to move one of my DCs to Azure? There probably is more to it than I'm seeing but if it come to it I can renew my licenses as is for on prem and then just license for the cloud stuff separately in September. If anyone that already has this licenses reads this let me know what you have. I'm trying to kill two birds with one license while getting the best price

I currently have the standard on prem win 10, office and sccm licensing with a1 plus on top. 2 servers running server os's. Dc, fs etc etc We've moved a lot of our files into onedrive and sharepoint and I want to start moving to a more cloud based serverless setup. My problem is I dont know what licenses I need and so far suppliers aren't giving me answers I still need the on prem stuff to make everything work as it is but I'm guessing I need the cloud stuff as well on top while I go throigh the process of moving services to azure. I dont want to have to keep tacking bits on as I go id prefer to get a years worth of licensing that covers us. My understanding so far is i need both on lrem standard licensing and then also the cloud stuff such as an e3 license. Should I just get the on prem stuff for now as my licenses run out in 14 days and add in the cloud stuff afterwards? We also use power bi at the moment Any help would be great thanks

How to keep Teams recordings private by default?
jblackburnHWGA replied to PyROm's topic in Cloud Services
I'm looking for the same thing. I've not found a way to stop the recording go into stream and have had to disable the record feature as some meetings started showing up in stream by some teachers who didn't quite understand where the video goes. Short term we have advised staff to use the Xbox bar to record the screen when in a meeting and keeping it in a teams folder as part of their department to maintain safeguarding. Ideally we need the record feature to record straight to a onedrive location that can only be accessed by the teacher who onlt has rights to record -
thanks Domino

works! thanks I modified to What should my SSL cert be for now lol https://WebAddress/hap or https://WebAddress

How would I be able to drop the /hap at the end of the address? At the moment its https://localaddress/hap How do I set the address as just https://localaddress I followed the V8 youtube guide to install Thanks Jason

MyFiles working but extremely slowly
jblackburnHWGA replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Home Access Plus+
All updates have come down and its working without a problem. I've dropped the website to a separate server as it previously shared the server with loads of other web based stuff like online exams and the helpdesk. This way I can take a snapshot or at worst reload the whole thing quite quickly to resolve. -

jblackburnHWGA replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Home Access Plus+
Its something to do with the VM!! I've loaded up a new vm with server 2016 and copied it over and it runs without issue. Very strange. I'm going to load up the sccm client and see if I can replicate the issue -
