Hi
Just seen a job advertised for an ICT network technician, one of the requirements is a knowledge of RM CC3, could someone please fill me in on what this is, I did go a google search, and did not really find very useful information.
As previously said, it's Microsoft with add-ons. Software packages can be rolled out to all workstations - that's about the only useful thing I've found. We have Connect2.4 - the wizards really are buggy. I hear good and very bad reports of CC3. Once you're in (on 2.4), it's really difficult to get out. I agree with the all or nothing statement.
If you believe in the philosophy of FLOSS its difficult to see how it could be reconciled with the RM way of doing things. Its really a mini-version of the MS strategy focused on schools.
(Although I've just got a mini-lab in our library authenticating a bunch of debian workstations from our Connect server - I'm *so* very pleased. Anyone who deals with RM will understand the irony - lovely gnome 2.6 workstations from an RM server).
