Hi Jackie, we just don't let staff or students connect personal devices to the network. Too many potential problems. That would just not be manageable for us.

Here is my question for the week: I am beginning to have the scenario of students bring in their wireless PDA's and laptops to school. They would like to be able to connect to the network to be able to print, etc. from their devices. As I look down the road, I can envision many beginning to want to do/ have the capability to do the same thing. Do any of you have policies regarding this? Do you/would you start configuring their devices to connect? I see the advantages, but am also envisioning the can of worms that could be opened. Thoughts/suggestions/ comments? Thanks, and have a great day! -Jackie --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by the algona.k12.ia.us server.] --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus on the server aea8.k12.ia.us] --------------------------------------------------------- Archived messages from this list can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ --------------------------------------------------------- --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus on the server aea8.k12.ia.us] --------------------------------------------------------- Archived messages from this list can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ ---------------------------------------------------------
