M365 - Shared Calendar item duplication, but only visible to the person creating the event.

So, this falls under "that's weird, wonder if anyone else has seen this?". This has to be a display issue, I'm just not sure what. Bob's individual M365 calendar has free/busy availability visible to everyone in the organisation. Bob shares his calendar with Sarah (full access). Sarah's using Microsoft Edge to access the calendar via https://outlook.office.com. Sarah can see Bob's calendar and add items to it. As of…

UniFi Talk

I'm interested to know if anyone is using or has looked at UniFi Talk as a telephony solution for your school? We currently have an old Mitel PBX with a SIP trunk and I'm looking into changing to a more modern solution. Thanks in advance.

Working XP Laptop

Looking for an older laptop that will run XP. I no longer have any older kit hanging around and ebay is full or "sometimes does not boot" or "mint retro example, give me £200". Thought I'd ask here

NHS Staff Internet Access

Curious how access for NHS staff is facilitated. Different NHS trusts seem to take different approaches and have different expectations.

130 fire drills, zero outage drills. What’s the strangest way your school has lost its IT?

During my talk at the recent EdSec event in Derby I asked the room two questions: How many fire drills have you done in your career? The highest answer was about 130. How many outage or cyber drills? Zero, followed by laughter, which told me everything. That was the idea behind my talk entitled: 'Project Zero Day'. It proposes a planned drill where you pretend the systems have gone (nothing actually gets switched off…

Reliable Dock Recommendations

This seems to be something I come round to looking at about every 6 months and never end up with something we are 100% happy with. We are looking for a USB-C dock recommendation that provides good reliability. I wondered if anyone had a device they would recommend. We have docks in every classroom but still have regular issues with devices not connecting to the monitors. Power cycling usually fixes it, but it is gett…

Bambu Lab A1 vs Orca Slicer

Hello everyone, I have been given a task of setting up and configuring a Bambu Lab A1 to a community run slicer software called Orca Slicer. The 3D printer is already connected to our IoT network which sits under a separate VLAN and I am able to access this via Orca Slicer (with extra configs of course). However, the issue I am currently having is that it is not sending .3mf or .gcode files across the network to the…

Web Filtering on iPads

Hello all, We have been using SPIN safe browser on our school iPads (1:1, communal and shared) to provide a safe/locked down web experience for our pupils and has apparently worked without any tickets being raised, however, as of last week their filtering service has gone offline which in turn has blocked all web browsing on the iPads (all other browsers have been removed from the devices). So far I've had no interac…

DfE tech standards - network switching

What's everyone's interpretation of "where possible" in this standard? Does it apply to the whole standard or just the bit about diverse routing? We don't have diverse route cabling to every switch (does anyone?), so does that mean it's not possible therefore doesn't apply, or should I be looking to run a second cable to each edge switch (about 30 switches, in my case)? Does not being able to afford to do that also c…

Sonicwall thoughts?

I'm looking at getting new firewalls. Sonicwall has been suggested by one company. My internal bias says cheap and cheerful. just from things I've read having never used them. Anyone have strong feelings about them either way? Currently the options are Fortinet, Meraki, Sonicwall, so any opinions on any of those would be gratefully recieved.

Digital signage displays - strange clock issues!

We have several digital displays running on Windows LTSC with Google Slides. The displays are mostly iiyama commercial units, model LE4341S. Ever since I've started over 3 years ago, they've all displayed a very odd tendency to shift time & sometimes date with no apparent reasoning. Sometimes forward an hour, sometimes back an hour, sometimes a couple of hours, sometimes it loses or gains entire days. I've gone to Ii…

Remasters of classic EA games on Steam and GOG

This morning I noticed a popup on Steam listing remastered versions of classic Wing Commander games (with others). I then checked GOG because if it is a game I really like I'll download the installer since it's DRM free. They seem to be on sale cheap on both services. From what I have read though, if you already have the original version on GOG they will let you have the remastered version for free. I found this list…

Disk drive recovery

Any recommendations for companies to look at recovering data from a potentially dead drive? Also is it possible with a SSD, I know on a mechanical one it can generally be done but never tried on SSD.

Windows 11 Profile Path user

Hi everyone, We are currently looking for a newer, faster, and more efficient user profile solution for our organization of over 1,000 users. Right now, we are using traditional roaming profiles (with folder redirection) stored on a DFS server infrastructure. As many of you know, the AppData folder takes up an enormous amount of space and severely impacts login/logout performance. While we have moved some laptop user…

M365 to hotmail and Live external emails

Hi all, Just checking if anyone else is having issues. We are receiving bounce backs when we email hotmail or live external email address from our school emails. With this error: live.co.uk couldn't confirm that your message was sent from a trusted location. Its been working fine up until yesterday and today seems worse. Anyone else having issues, just wanted to check if its us or everyone? Thanks

Canva sign-up issues

Hi everyone Our Computing Lead has reported that he sent Canva invitations to his entire class, and some pupils were able to accept the invitation and sign up, while others clicked the link, it seemed initially to work, but then received error: "403. Error: app_not-enabled_for_user Service is not enabled for this user" We use Gmail accounts within Google Workspace. My understanding is that error would be expected to…

Microsoft 365 Education - Licensing changes

FYI Microsoft have announced a global change to Microsoft 365 Education licensing today. Long and short of it, student use benefit will be withdrawn so you may need to pay for licenses for some or all of your students. Included storage will also be removed.
