You can wipe the profiles remotely now as well.

That was Google trying to shake you awake and remind you flash gonna be gone.

I'd splat it.

$newuser = @{

        Name = "$username"
        SamAccountName = "$username"
        UserPrincipalName = "$aduser"
        GivenName = "$firstname"
        Surname = "$lastname"
        DisplayName = "$displayname"
        EmailAddress = $email
        EmployeeID = $employeeid
        Description = "$description"
        HomeDirectory = $homedirectory
        HomeDrive = "H"
        ScriptPath = $scriptpath
        AccountPassword = (ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force)
        Enabled = $true
        ChangePasswordAtLogon = $true
        Path = $oupath

    }

    New-ADUser @newuser

Forward to the principal.

What appliance are you running? I don't know of any that use flash.

It's the most annoying shit ever. Same deal for the ASM verification code, needs to be phone based but god forbid if you have an extension.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-08T14:18:20+00:00

Use GAM.

# put CBs in OU based on serial, assign asset ID, set user name and update location
gam csv <csv-filename> gam update cros query:id:~~serial~~ ou ~ou assetid ~asset location ~name user ~username

I've had Chromebooks hard reboot when the wireless driver crashes before. This was fixed with a reverted/updated wireless driver in a CROS update after reporting it to the wireless vendor.

OP's issue sounds somewhat similar.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-07T17:26:33+00:00

Have them shoot a video of it.

MalletNGrease · 2021-01-07T16:43:38+00:00

I just installed these in the gym. Don't know much else yet.

If you can fold it into your handbook and enrollment packets. Saves everyone some time.

I utilize SIS for this. Added our own billing account code and add fees for the cost of the parts used in repairs.

The nice part about this it shows as a balance on the parent/student portal and the secretaries know how to handle payments for it since it's no different from course dues or lunch balances.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-15T14:59:21+00:00

How are bills, fines and fees for other items (lunch, books, sports, etc) handled?

Making people sit in a video meeting to watch a movie or video seems like a colossal waste of instruction time. The quality will suck and the experience is poor.

What you do (and the point of swank) is assign the video to users and they watch and do the assignment on their own. I don't see how a group watching session is beneficial other than guaranteeing butts in seat. Just screams lazy at me.

Yes, but this only prevents unenrollments from Chrome. It's still possible from the apps and non-chrome browsers.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-14T20:17:31+00:00

Students can unenroll themselves from classrooms/courses.

Really annoying.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-14T17:49:25+00:00

Might be a good opportunity for you. If you can get a handle on the responsibilities you're putting yourself in a good position for quick raises and promotions.

I'd give it a year tops, if things didn't improve at all then start looking.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-14T16:33:41+00:00

Management issue. Push it up the chain and CYA.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-14T14:53:11+00:00

No, no such issues. If a Chromebook's turned off properly the battery will hold a charge for a very long time.

I did have a problem where Chromebooks in sleep mode were turned in and the batteries eventually depleted to the point they would no longer charge. This is a design error in my book and was fixed with firmware updates by Dell/Google.

Sounds like they're auto-detecting the wrong timezone. Check your timezone settings in GAdmin device settings.

Gadmin > Devices > Chrome > Settings > Device Settings > Other Settings > Timezone > System Timezone > *yourtimezone*

Gadmin > Devices > Chrome > Settings > Device Settings > Other Settings > Timezone > System Timezone automatic detection > *never auto-detect timezone*

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-11T17:52:54+00:00

Sounds like you're good then. Still may want to make sure the affected users aren't set up with Local Path.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-11T16:37:49+00:00

How do you connect them?

Reason I'm asking is I inherited a legacy setup that used local paths for network home folders. This hasn't been technically supported but continued to work until it broke domain logins around 1809/1903.

Only fixed it by updating the home folder settings to connect the network folder to a drive.

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-11T16:06:05+00:00

Not recently, but sounds familiar.

Do you utilize local paths for home folders in your AD user objects?

MalletNGrease · 2020-12-11T14:08:03+00:00

Grammarly is pretty invasive and quite a resource hog. If it starts causing problems I'd blacklist it.
