[Year 12 IPM] off topic firewall query

[Jim Bunn]

Hi all,

 

In order to use the Internet or the school Intranet with our laptops,
teachers must first disable the Symantec firewall on their laptops. I
realise that the school has an enabled firewall that will protect our
machines from all the nasties, but I'm wondering whether or not this is
happening across the state. Our technician says there is a conflict with
Symantec. 

 

Has any clever person solved the problem at their school?

 

Cheers,

Jim
