Hello, What's the accessibility of MS Dynamics like? Is it an expensive solution to get up and running and license? Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi, hear's a link to the iso, for dvd use, and the usb stick download will be up in just a few minutes as well, if you can donate a $1 to bigikemusic(a)gmail.com since I purchased hosting to upload it, because dropbox didn't like so much traffic, but if you can't donate, hope it helps you anyway. hear's the link to the iso version http://www.drivehq.com/file/df.aspx/shareID11550803/fileID1780741131/disk.i…

What's everyone's experience with the windows Server Essentials Experience role?
by Katherine Moss 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Hi all, This is more of an administrative question rather than an accessibility question. Have you found benefits in using the Windows server Essentials Experience role? If so, what were they? Did the environment make it easier for employees in smaller organizations? Have you ever deployed it with multiple other servers in the environment, especially multiple domain controllers? Have you discovered if it has benefits even for the knowledgeable It person? Thanks.

SCCM 2012 Admin Accessibility Tips
by Mika Pyyhkala 10 Mar '14

10 Mar '14

Hi, Please send me any tips for navigating the SCCM 2012 console, or in regards to, if people are using PowerShell instead. I think I have read in a prior post that the SCCM 2012 console is not as accessible as prior versions, but that it may be useable with some work arounds. I am just getting started with SCCM 2012, so I have not experienced any issues per se as of yet but it seems as though it does not behave as well as a typical MMC snap in.

Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Silently Installing Jaws or a Screen Reader on an End User Client Machine

I use psexec to install JAWS to remote computers quite a bit. The way I do this is to have JAWS installation .exe and scripts that I want on the remote machine on a share that is accessible from that remote machine. The I use psexec to run a .cmd file from that share that copies the .exe and the scripts locally before executing the installation. Here is the contents of the installation .cmd file: @echo off @rem Install the latest JFW version and @rem update JAWS scripts @rem to local machine set local SET InstallFrom=%~dp0 set build=15.0.6025 set VERSION=%build:~0,2%.0 set j12rc=0 set j12uninstall="C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific Installation Information\356DE2A8-01EB-464e-9C33-0EEA3F923000-12.0\UninstallJAWS.exe" set j13rc=0 set j13uninstall="C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific Installation Information\356DE2A8-01EB-464e-9C33-0EEA3F923000-13.0\UninstallJAWS.exe" set j14rc=0 set j14uninstall="C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific Installation Information\356DE2A8-01EB-464e-9C33-0EEA3F923000-14.0\UninstallJAWS.exe" :current @echo Architecture: %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE% if /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" equ "AMD64" ( set FILE=J%build%-64bit.exe ) else ( set FILE=J%build%-32bit.exe ) @echo install: %file% copy %InstallFrom%%FILE% %temp%\%file% xcopy /Y /S /E /I /Q %InstallFrom%%VERSION% "%APPDATA%\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\%Version%" %temp%\%FILE% /Type SilentRemote set j15rc=%errorlevel% del %temp%\%FILE% endlocal :exit if "%j12rc%" neq "0" (@echo JAWS12 uninstall returned %j12rc% & set RC=%j12rc%) if "%j13rc%" neq "0" (@echo JAWS13 uninstall returned %j13rc% & set RC=%j13rc%) if "%j14rc%" neq "0" (@echo JAWS14 uninstall returned %j14rc% & set RC=%j14rc%) if "%j15rc%" neq "0" (@echo JAWS15 install returned %j15rc% & set RC=%j15rc%) exit /b %RC% it typically does require a reboot; and this is mainly for RDP usage. -----Original Message----- From: Blind-sysadmins [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Mika Pyyhkala Sent: Monday, March 10, 2014 11:02 AM To: Blind sysadmins list (blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org) Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Silently Installing Jaws or a Screen Reader on an End User Cleint Machine Hi, There are times when I may need to work on an end users machine either in person or via remote desktop.

I have a vb scrip tfor installation of other software but I have not customized it with msiexec for Jaws.

Greetings, What server monitoring applications do you use? Both payed and unpayed suggestions are welcome. I've eused whats up gold very effectively in the past. I haven't had great success with Nageos with Windows machines but this is possibly due to not giving it enough time to learn about everything. Thanks Darragh
