Went to work today to fix the broken printing server. It took 4 hours! Managed to restore the configurations and stuff from backups, although Windows decided not to restore any print drivers which were not "digitally certified for Server 2003" or some such bollocks. So we have to add those manually. There are about 7 printers not left on the system but we'll fix those Monday (the other 100 are fine!).
While stuff was restoring and whatever, we installed a new gigabit switch in the server rack and removed a lot of temporary cabling from last year. So a lot of stuff is now on gigabit networking, including the Moodle server. Pulled out a second redundant switch too, from the days of Acorns - 4 ports are trunked (can't get hold of the configuration software to un trunk them) and another port is marked as dead, so we're binning it to save confusion.
Bosh.
