Hi all, I'm looking into the possibility of allowing pupils and staff to access their files remotely (over the internet from home, say...) through Sharepoint. I was told somewhere down the line that it can incorporate this functionality and I've tried installing Sharepoint Services 3.0 on one of our services to see if I could work it out but I seem to have fallen at the first hurdle and cannot find any documentation explaining how this is possible. Does anyone know if it is actually possible or not and if so is there any kind of intro to adding this feature? Thanks for your help, really appreciate any help anyone can give on this issue. Richard.

Morning guys, I have just posted the below on Server Fault regarding an issue we are having with some of our desktops and users. I was just wondering if any of our friends in the world of academia had also come across this problem? Cheers Adam ---------- We have an interesting issue with one of our server shares, or possibly, our Win 7 desktops. When our users try to save files in a sub folder, either via copy/paste or through an application, to a mapped drive on our DC they receive an error saying "Path not found". They can however browse this folder and open files from it. This is where the "Path Not Found" error doesn't seem to stack up in my opinion. Users can however save files fine in the root folder of the mapped drive, it appears only to affect sub folders. It seems to be random which users and machines this affects. The users can log on to a different machine and be able to save in sub folders fine, on the same mapped drive. Event viewer hasn't been much help either. Currently, the only solution we have found is to image the machines affected which solves the issue. Our servers are Server 2008 R2 with Win 7 Pro desktops. Any help/pointers/suggestions would greatly be appreciated. windows server 2008 - "Path Not Found" when attempting to write to a sub folder within a mapped drive - Server Fault

Hello, this is my first post so bare with me lol. What we need to do is create a simple batch file that will change the path on our nurse's laptops. We recently updated their java to jre6 but for whatever reason it isnt sticking in the path on several of them. So we just need to add ;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\cLient to the end of the current path. This is what i have right now and when viewed on the dos prompt it changes the path but it doesnt take affect when you look at it in environmental variables.... set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\cLient Any help will be greatly appreciated!!
