Good Morning
Appreciate the feedback regarding the transition from KDMS to ADMS. As of the beginning of Term Three this service has become our responsibility.
Last week we released the 1.0.18.1 patch which fixed some of the outstanding bugs that had been identified. Barring any critical issues, this will be the last release of this version of the software and we will continue to support it for free in 2016. We are doing this as a continuation of the understanding whereby the product was provided by KAMAR at no cost. This version will exist unsupported after 2016.
Going forward for 2017, we have plans for new version (v2) where new features and feature requests will be considered and implemented. This will be released in December and pricing will be available shortly for budgeting. This will include all bug fixes, support and future releases as well as supporting the continued developments and improvement of the product.
All bug and feature requests for v2 will be documented and publicly available on the Bugs and Features page in our Help Centre. For future updates about features and new releases please add your name to this mailing list.
We are dedicated to improving this service and making it the best it can be for all NZ schools. If you would like support, all the existing documentation for v1 is available on our Help Centre or you can email us at he...@ited.co.nz.

Your paying for a supported/updated service in ADMS, or there are other options. I don't see that as anti competitive...

apologies for my comments. Seems everything is in order and good to see some open source development going on. Thanks Kent for addressing this.

I've written an open source alternative on PHP... it doesn't do anything with passwords, but does sync all users, groups and create new users.

Kevin: For us the kamar password is only used in AD as the initial password for the account when created. We currently don't do any further syncing of the password into AD.Office 365 is sync'd with AD via the Azure sync tool.Yes, students can their password on a network computer.
thanks that's the same with us basically, there just doesn't seem to any point to add to the users confusion by enabling kamar passwords unless its fully synced.

Although you can't (or at least I can't - not sure if I want to) reveal it once they have changed it - it is still sent through to ADSync/ADMS (at that stage I could choose to capture it if needed). The only problems I have had was when a student sets the password to something that the portal accepts but AD complexity rules do not.

We setup staff independently of Kamar and have separate staff groups. We sync them all to Google though.
We only sync student details and staff groups... all other staff changes are done manually.--Kind Regards,Jake Willsco-HOD Mathematics, Head of e-LearningKāpiti CollegeMargaret Road, Raumati Beach 5032
