It's been a year since I posted this, and we have had some sort of solution for a
while. The problem (in our case) related to privileges / access on the network. Since
we work in a large school with around 1500 people having access, there are restrictions
on access WHEN you are logged on to the network. We solved the problem by setting
up a separate account that accesses JUST the COMPUTERS. This then allows us to ADD
hardware (which is effectively what you are doing when you use a plug and play device.
IT is a pain in the neck having to log on and off but it allows us to download our
images and preserves security of the network.
