ARD 2.2 Admin Crashes When Scanning Local Network

Out of the blue, my ARD Admin application began to crash when scanning the Local Network.
I deleted the application's preferences file (com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist) and retried with the same results.
Installed ARD admin application on a different machine with a fresh 10.4.2 OS install and it is still crashing whilst scanning.
My Network Engineers swears that nothing has changed recently on the network.
Wondering if anyone else has seen this.

I was having the same problem until this morning, and one of my associates in a neighbor district discovered the problem. ARD 2.2 is VERY concerned about DNS entries.
We are using OS X Server for our DNS, and what I did was create a bogus machine entry for each subnet. Thus, if I wanted to search our senior high lab subnet (10.136.43.x) I created an entry for 10.136.43.0. There is no physical machine at that address, but it forces OS X Server to create an IN-ADDR.ARPA record for that subnet. I found that to be a lot easier than manually editing the associated DNS files.
It does work superbly. Three other folks in our district with ARD crashes tried doing searches and they were all successful. Adding the IN-ADDR.ARPA entries wasn't time consuming as we don't have a ton of subnets . We've defined standards for where machines should be as follows:
(Device: Range)
Switches: 10.x.1.100-150
Printers: 10.x.2.1-50
DHCP: 10.x.2.150-254
Classrooms: 10.x.3.1-254
Labs: 10.x.4.1-100
Media Center: 10.x.4.101-150
The junior high and high school are a bit different because they have more lab machines, but we try to stick to the basic scheme. This works great for us because 1) it allows us to know where devices should appear and 2) it greatly limits the range ARD must scan to pick up all machines of a particular kind (e.g. classroom or lab). We have a bit of reconfiguration to do because we should be able to have static classroom and DHCP units all within the 10.x.3 subnet, but that will be taken care of over the course of this year.
I hope this helps some folks.

  • Scanning local Network

    I tring to scan local Network!!!
    How can we find all ips or hosts of local Network????
    Thanks!:)
    Best, Aram.

    I have the same problem.
    I use a mysql database together with my own written java program (huge).
    Now I create a new client in my program, and i want to give him acces to the mysql database.
    This isn't really hard, BUT:
    When you create a user in mysql (with GRANT) you can use a host name. Because if you don't that user can acces the database from every pc within the local network. I don't want that to happen.
    So when a new user will be created I would like to have a JComboBox with all the active Pc's that are on my local network.
    Can it be made????
    otherwise is there a windows command (in command line) that let you see all the pc's that are available in a local network???

  • MAX crashes when scanning for gpib instruments

    MAX closes without comment when I attempt to scan for instruments with a tektronix TDS3014B scope attached. This problem does not occur with other instruments.

    nireport.txt ‏2 KB

    I've tried scanning for instruments with the TDS3014B being 1) the only instrument connected, 2) one of many instruments connected and 3) not being one of the instruments connected. The scan causes MAX to crash in cases 1 and 2 but succeeds in case 3. I tried scanning with the TDS3014B connected on different computers and MAX does not crash. I attached the ni reports for those computers. I do not have another TDS3014B available to try. When scanning case 2 some of the other intruments connected are the HP8920, Agilent E3632A and Agilent E8257C, but I don't think having other instruments connected matters since case 1 causes the crash also.

  • GX700 Crashes when scanning for TV channels!

    Hi forum.
    I've got a GX700 with TV-tuner. Everything else on the PC is working like a charm, but when scanning for TV-channels in DVBViewer Pro and CyberLink PowerCinema, the PC simply crashes, and a nice blue-screen error message appears. The Scanning always make it to 98 %, without finding a single channel, and then the crash occurs. I'm using Vista 64-bit.

  • Local admin rights when Edit locally

    Hello, all!
    We have the same problem as in
    Local Admin rights to "Edit Locally" ?
    "The end users do not have administrator rights on their local PCs , they logon to the domain server with restricted rights. When it comes to portal, when trying to edit a document with "Edit locally" it is not possible to do is even if the user has all the rights for the document in the Portal KM configuration. When we make the user local admin, everything is OK"
    We are on SPS14, Windows XP SP2. Domain users can run corresponding applications and can create dirs or files in a temp directory. We also utilize env. variable SAPKM_USER_TEMP but with no success.
    Could yoã please suggest, how to find rights needed to execute Local Edit. Are there any way to trace this Docservice ActiveX?

    Hello Roman,
    here a note which describes a solution for a user account wuth restricted rights:
    The Edit Locally activex will be installed based on following
    installation steps:
    The browser will recognize that the KM DocService activex has to be
    started.
    In case of the activex isn't installed on the the PC, it will be
    downloaded from the KM server (...etc/docservice/docservice.cab)
    The browser will extract two DLLs from the docservice.cab file
    (docservice.dll and sapkmprogressplayer.dll) and register them on the
    local PC. To see if the installation succeed you can open within the
    browser following dialog: Tools/Internet Options/Settings/View Objects,
    look for program file SAP KM DocService Control.
    Registry keys in following areas will be created:
    Area HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT:
    HKCR\AppID\{5F8983A6-347C-46B9-BA7A-1B87E5DAE0BC}
    HKCR\ProgressPlayerMod.ProgressPlayer
    HKCR\ProgressPlayerMod.ProgressPlayer.1
    HKCR\CLSID
    HKCR\TypeLib
    Area HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ModuleUsage\C:/WINNT/Down
    Downloaded Program Files/DocService.dll
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Code Store Database\Distribution Units\
    When finishing these steps successfully the installed version can be
    located within the browser dialog Tools/Internet Options/Settings/View
    Objects SAP KM DocService Control and den KM DocService will
    start loading the document content from the KM server and starting the
    corresponding application for editing.
    Installation with restricted user accounts:
    With restricted user accounts e.g. no access rights to create registry keys in the area of HKCR or HKLM etc., which lets the described installation fail, following installation procedure leads to success:
    Register the needed DLLs manually on the PC (e.g. via a shell command script) with a user account having enough access rights.
    1.1 Create an installation folder (don't use /windows/system32) on the PC and copy the DLLs (docservice.dll and sapkmprogressplayer.dll) to it (extract them from docservice.cab with a tool e.g. winzip).
    1.2 Open a command shell on this installation folder.
    1.3 Unregister possible existing versions with the following command:
    "regsvr32 docservice.dll /U " and "regsvr32 sapkmprogressplayer.dll /U "
    1.4 Register the both DLLs with: "regsvr32 docservice.dll" and "regsvr32 sapkmprogressplayer.dll "
    1.5 If the two registration steps fail check the permissions to write
    into the system registry.
    1.6 The installation folder do not need special permissions, the linkage to the DLLs will be done via the system registry.
    1.7 Additionally the following setting is mandatory to succeed the installation:
    Disable the "ActiveX Version Check" function within the KM Configuration
    SystemAdministration->SystemConfig->KnowledgeManagement->
    ->Configuration->ContentManagement->Utilities->Editing->LocalEditing-> ActiveX Version Check (Uncheck the checkbox)
    Setting a different TEMP directory:
    In cases that it is problematic to use the standard %TEMP% directory, setting the environment variable SAPKM_USER_TEMP pinpointing to a corresponding directory path (e.g. X:\SHARES\USERS\xxx\CheckedOutDocuments) will be also supported. If the access to that directory fails the standard %TEMP% directory will be used as fallback.
    Hope this helps,

  • ARD 2.2 admin issues when client is at Login Window

    I've used ARD for a long time now. Currently running ARD 2.2 Admin on Tiger 10.4.2 on iBook G3 800 MHz. I've always been able to see the clients listed as available, even if client is at the Login Window, even after a restart.
    Issue is w/ one particular client running ARD 2.2 client on Tiger 10.4.2 on a iMac 2 GHz G5.
    Issue is, when the client's G5 is rebooted, I cant access it when it's at the Login Window. It doesn't even show as available. Once he logs in, his iMac shows as available, and I can access it. If he the logs out, I do see the iMac as available at the Login Window and can access it.
    However, issue also is reflected in SSH. I can't SSH to his machine until he logs in as well.
    Again, this is only after the system initially starts up after a reboot for example.
    Seems to me that networking isn't properly starting up and only after user logs in does it start up.
    I know this might not be best posted in ARD discussion, but I figured I'd start here.
    Any ideas? Thanx in advance.

    Small consolation but I'm seeing the exact same behavior. ARD Admin is a PM G5 and it has no trouble at all seeing/controlling a TiBook 400 (Tiger), a Cube (Tiger Server), a Yikes PM (Panther), or a 17" iMac (Panther). There's an iBook G3 (Panther), though, that doesn't appear to support any kind of incoming network connection unless one of the users is logged in.

  • Firefox crashes when loading local pages (localhost)

    Firefox crashes when I load local pages. This includes pages served by my apache server / localhost (WAMP). It also hangs when I load pages from complete websites that I have downloaded.
    I was running Firefox 6 and upgraded to Firefox 7 before I discovered what the cause of the problem was. Downgraded to Firefox 4 and still had the same problem. Does anybody know how to fix this, developing with Chrome is driving me mad!!!???

    Hello Xircal, thank you very much for replying.
    I have tried to perform a standard diagnostic. Everything seems to run fine in Safe mode. Disabling Hardware accleration makes no difference. I can't check anything else because whenever I try to open Add-on manager, Firefox crashes.
    I reinstalled again, just in case, but it's still happening.
    Is it significant that the 'Update' buttons of the two outdated plugins won't work when I click on them?
    Thanks again!

  • Illustrator CC crashes when saving to network drive

    Hi all,
    We have 3 Macs all running 10.10 or 10.9 which crash when saving eps file types (PDF saves fine) to a NetApp network drive using Illustrator CC 2014.1.0 release.
    Users can save files locally and then copy the files to the network drive with no problems.
    Anyone else having this issue?
    Thanks in advance
    Colin

    Colin,
    It is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
    In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

  • Console cannot connect to Admin Server in a local network

    Hi,
    This issue may has been asked before, but I didn't find corresponding answer. So I ask again:
    The Directory server 5.2 P4 is running on Windows XP and a console running on the same server (192.168.1.80) works fine. However second console which is running on 192.168.1.50 can not connect to admin server. Error message is:
    Cannot connect to the Admin Server "http://homeserver.keiban.com:5201/" The URL is not correct or the server is not running.
    I noticed that if I use http://192.168.1.80:5201 to connect admin server instead of http://homeserver.keiban.com, it took 10 seconds to show Initialization Failure:
    Connect connect to the Directory Server "ldap://homeserver.keiban.com:5200" LDAP error: failed to connect to server ldap://homeserver.keiban.com;5200 Would you like to attemt to restart the Directory Server?
    In Control Panel -> Windwos Firewall -> Exceptions, I have added port number 5201 for Sun ONe Admin Server 5.2 on TCP.
    In etc/host file, an entry is already added:
    192.168.1.80 homeserver.keiban.com homeserver
    Both computers are in a local network and via cable DSL to connect to Internet. Is there some thing I am missing?
    Your help will be appreciated,

    1. Make sure your FQDN is set up correct on both
    client and Server.Victor, you are right! I setup FQDN on server properly, but forgot to have FQDN setup to map FQDN to IP address on client. So the Console goes to Internet to find the directory server in which it causes failure.
    Thanks your hint,
    a. ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx from client to Server
    Check the Admin Server for Client Access Control
    configuration.

  • IMAP service not allowing message to be sent when off local network

    Hi,
    I almost always use my laptop along with mail.app on my home network that has OS X server with the mail service running
    When I leave my network, however, and try to send a message using mail.app, it shows an error saying
    "The server responded: <[email protected]>: Relay access denied"
    I relay through smtp.comcast.net
    It prompts me to select another from a list (sending mail works fine in squirrel mail in browser though regardless of location).
    I can receive mail in mail.app regardless of locations too, I just can't seem to send messages while away from local network.

    The problem you are having is caused by Comcast rejecting any SMTP relay requests that do not originate from a comcast.net connection.
    Your OS Xserver is connected to the comcast.net network, so it can relay SMTP through smtp.comcast.net.
    Try contacting Comcast and see if you can authenticate (username/password) to their SMTP server while you are on the road.
    Hope this helps!

  • Finder crashes when "looking for networks" - workaround that helps

    I've read through most of the messages about finder crashes, but what's going on in my case I haven't seen. As I have a work around, I thought I should post.
    If for whatever reason the wireless connection pauses or gets interrupted (for example, by closing the lid), the finder hangs in the process of "looking for networks."  Most of the time I can still pull up the dock -- the spinning beach ball only clicks in if I mouse over the top menu bar. Sometimes (but not always) I can quit open applications through the dock before I have to do a hard reset.
    My workaround is this: I turn wi-fi off before I close the lid. When I open the lid, I wait a short time -- 30 seconds, about -- and turn the wireless back on, and this way I can avoid the finder crashing.  If the wi-fi pauses for some other external reason, when "looking for networks" starts up, the finder will hang again.
    It's way past  time that Apple coughs up a permanent fix, but this might help somebody who's having the same problem.  And maybe somebody has a better workaround, in which case, I'd love to hear about it.

    1. Going into a folder on my external hard drive that contains the installer for divx for mac.
    Divx has been a source of problems with both Tiger & Leopard. See for example Mac OS X 10.5: Finder may not fully "load". If you have installed it, it is probably at least part of your problem.
    then i erased the whole thing, and used the Mac OS X 10.5 install DVD that came with my mom's iMac (still happens)
    This is not recommended. The install disks that come with specific Mac models do not necessarily install the same things or do all the error checks that the retail Leopard installer disk does. (It is also a violation of the software license to install it on another Mac.) If you want a trouble-free, supported installation of Leopard, use only the retail installer or a disk specifically intended for your exact Mac model.

  • Crashes when printing to network printer

    The Safari 3 beta for Windows XP appears to crash when I try to print a web page on a network printer at my job. When I check at the printer, the page has been successfully printed. This has happened numerous times so it is a repeatable bug.

    Yep. Happens to me, too. Printing layout isn't the greatest, either, but I still think it's a fairly significant first try. We're talking about a third-generation port of Konqueror, after all. I've been waiting for Konqueror for Windows for a long time.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Crashes When Scanning with Canon DR-4010C Native Interface

    When doing a custom scan in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2, I need to be able to show the Canon DR-4010C native interface so that it will auto-crop when I am scanning small documents such as receipts, etc.  I have another model scanner that does it automatically (a Canon Dr-2510C) but I need that same functionality when I scan with the 4010.  I can see the setting when I configure Adobe to use the scanner's native interface however when I choose "auto detection" on the size (in the scanner's interface) and press scan, Adobe immediately crashes.  Please help!
