Today I worked a little more on the iPhoto server, then moved it and the new backup server in to the server room. Ran a backup of the iPhoto server too. The Other Tech looked at the staff and student backup, but it's still running and has many hours left.
Set up our Win 2008 test server on the bench and installed Active Directory services on it. Have yet to connect any clients to it but I will dip in and out in the next couple of weeks to do some preliminary testing. I'll also have another look at Flash streaming on this box.
The class whose /Library folders were deleted had zero problems today. They could all access their Apps! We're going to try and delete everyones Library folders next week. Success.
Got an email from an old teacher today. She was saying her son has finished Uni and is looking for a second job during the day time and was interested in Macs and IT support. Seeing as we have a vacancy, I ran the idea past The Big Boss. He asked me what exactly this person would do. I was somewhat confused as the advertised position had a job spec, and had assumed he would be doing that....so I explained that assumption. The Big Boss then said that the classroom assistant and IT assistant (aka The New Guy) could do menial IT tasks. I was left confused as if this was the case and our current staffing was suitable (which it is not), why did we advertise for a 3rd technician with web skills in the first place? The ball has been left in my court as I would need to see what this guy wanted from the position, but, it seems like The Big Boss is not overly keen to support it....?....
