Projects (9/22):

September 21, 2010

• Samsung Printer is currently being worked on, was called to double check the problem
• Had a meeting with Lenovo to figure out a fix for imagining their laptops and desktops
• Reimaged 10 silver laptops for SSD tomorrow
• Added second stick of 2GB RAM to computers in B144 (B114 was being used). None found that required any extra RAM in other classrooms
• Put up open lab schedules in all CNT classrooms, in the hall, and on the office door

September 15, 2010

• Pushed out the hotfix for Windows Networking Operators group in Windows 7, so CNT Students and Instructors can edit network settings on machines (requires authentication first)
• Installed the Administrative Tools on all the CNT Instructor stations and placed the Active Directory link on the desktop for all users (only instructors can use it)
• Sent an email to Kelly at NowMicro asking if we can get the RAM ordered exchanged for correct RAM
• Have slip from Samsung to get the printer shipped back and repaired (need to check if campus can ship it back)
• Finished the VMWare XP image (need to fix that the image is not coming out of sysprep correctly)
• Nearly finished VirtualBox XP image (machine failed to correctly sysprep before leaving)

The use of the Open Lab is split fairly evenly between CCNA students and Windows 7 students. Usually about 5+ students in the room at a given time, although there are some dead times during actual classes.
