Windows 11 Pro units managed by Intune. Students are not admins on the machines. We discovered a few students today who have been able to install duckduckgo on their machines. Have any of you seen this issue? Any recs on how to stop this?

Lenovo CB+ Fingerprint Issues

2 Upvotes

Is anyone else with Lenovo Chromebook Plus 2-in-1 devices having sporadic fingerprint sensor issues? It will work for a day or two, and then stop working. After a powerwash, it will work again for a while. Some users have no issues; others have them all the time.

On the surface, it seems like a hardware issue, but it always works after a powerwash, which makes me think maybe not?

If anyone has any ideas or a solution, I am open to suggestions.

GLPI vs Zammad: What’s Your Experience?

5 Upvotes

Hi k12SysAdmin family,

Is anyone here using GLPI or Zammad as a helpdesk/ticketing system?

I’d love to hear about your experience with either platform, especially:

  • Pros and cons
  • Number of users
  • Number of agents
  • Average tickets per day
  • Overall environment/setup
  • Performance and reliability
  • Any issues or limitations you’ve encountered

If you’ve used both, I’d especially appreciate a comparison between GLPI and Zammad.
