@george1421 Thank you!!

My google-fu is strong today.

Thanks! I’ll take a look see. 🙂 I found the Wiki on Hooks. I’ve worked with PHP before in the past but it’s been many many versions ago.

@Tom-Elliott

Cheers!

@Joe-Gill Great job. Boo @Microsoft. Booooo

I agree in that situation it probably would be best to keep it the way it is. My situation is a little different. Most of my groups are much smaller, in comparison, with similar hardware/software setups on every machine in the group.

I organize my groups based on room/lab in the school, every room has similar hardware ect. So it’s much different, it sounds. I’d just like to see a central location where I could see what settings are on larger groups of computers without having to go into each host to check it. Even if it were on a separate settings page. That’s all.

I just ran into an issue this morning where I’m adding printers to a group. I navigate to the group, click on printers, select printer for group, click add printer, click update and then all of my selections disappear. You have no idea whether your changes were ever applied to the group. To me it would be nice to see the printer check box remain checked after update is selected, and maybe the update button grayed out. Something simple to let the user know that things have actually been applied without having to go into each host.

Cheers,

I might have to try it. I’ll have to play with it.

Thanks!!

I’m off until Monday. Unfortunately, I had to deploy that laptop without imaging. I’ll have more to do though. I may be able to grab it later and continue testing. Thanks for the help!!

@george1421 So I just logged in and opened word. After it opens it has the window that says first things first and you choose how it will install updates. You have to be an admin to set that. After that the window pops that asks “How do you want to activate your software?”

After you click through those it is ready to go. Is there a way to automate that so it is done already? It’s not a big deal. I can login to each machine and click through those, but if it can be done I would set it up.

@Wayne-Workman

I did find out that the slow speed was likely from an old switch in that room. The other admin said we still have a 10/100 switch on that lab… So theirs part of the issue!

Thanks for all of the useful replies! We’ll use one of these iterations for our inventory when we start deployment in the next week or two.

Cheers,

Upate!!

We got this fixed. The FreNAS node on our storage group (not the master), was set to get it’s IP address by DHCP. The DHCP lease went up and the address changed. When this happened it caused this error to appear.

I reset the address on our FreeNAS node of our storage group, and everything works perfectly.

Moral of the story, do not set up any of your servers with DHCP addresses when you’ve got stuff pointing to said addresses!!

Thanks for making me think harder.

@Tom-Elliott

The group settings change in the update fixed the problem!

Thanks!
