Can't Connect to an eMac with ARD 3.1
Hi
I am having difficulty connecting to an eMac (G4 1GHz with 1 GB RAM) using ARD 3.1 unlimited.
The eMac shows up in the list of computers when accessed through an Airport network and through the Internet using a fixed IP address. Using ARD, I was able to update the ARD client software and change the access privileges from my G4 Powerbook, but I cannot establish a connection to observe or control the computer. Even connecting them directly to each other with a cat 5e Ethernet cable wouldn't allow me to control or observe the eMac.
I have a 20" iMac G4 at home that works flawlessly through Airport and through the Internet using it's static IP from a different Internet service provider.
What am I missing?
Thanks

Hi Again
I spoke with Apple Support about my problem. The summary of my conversation is this:
1 - The client software must be version 3.1 if ARD is 3.1. I had the 3.1 client on the problem eMac all along – installed it with ARD in fact.
2 - Since I can connect to other computers it is not the software that is the problem.
3 - He suggested turning off the firewall on the problem eMac. I did and lo and behold I can observe and control it. Since all the other functions work with the firewall on he tells me it's then a problem with the firewall rules. But I only use Mac OS X 10.4's built in firewall settings, i.e. I click the buttons beside services and go from there. I have never altered the OS's rules with the preference panel (not allowed to by the OS) or with terminal (don't know how). I find it quite odd that on this one machine I can't observe and control it using Apple Inc.'s firewall settings.
4 - My basic support package with the unlimited version of ARD does not include the tech helping me set up a new firewall. Here in Canada that's CAN$599 for not being able to help with what is definitely an Apple problem. Hmm.
Everyone who is having similar problems should try turning off the firewall to see if that remedies the problem. If it does then setting up a new firewall in the sharing preferences and setting your own rules is the answer. Simply copying the settings for TCP and UDP ports that Apple uses should work I’m guessing. I'll try and it see.
Wish me luck; the tech from Apple did!

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?
Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?
Lots of hotels in the DR have WiFi. And there is plenty of cellular coverage in Santo Domingo (and elsewhere).
One thing to be careful of, the WiFi networks are usually not secured and are very vulnerable to people "listening" for passwords and user names, so don't do any financial transactions online and perhaps consider setting up some temporary passwords for the trip and changing them when you get home.

Can i connect my time capsule with my router as a bridge ?
can i connect my time capsule with my router as a bridge ?
I am a bit lost .. did you work this out?? You are running a second thread.. and answered it with this question.
The TC can be bridged.. plug it into the main router by ethernet and run it in bridge mode.. that is router bridge.
Do you mean wireless bridge??
If you mean wireless bridge the answer is maybe but unlikely.
If you setup the TC to join a wireless network.. it becomes a dumb client not a bridge.
So to get it to wireless bridge you need to use another apple router.. that is the only way to get them to work.
If you want specifics ask specific questions. -

How can I connect NetBeans 6.1 with SQL Server 2005?
Hello guys...
how can i connect NetBeans 6.1 with SQL Server 2005?
there is no SQL Server in Server list when we create a new Web Project and choose Server.
I'm new to NetBeans and this is my first time of posting.
If has some errors and unwanted disturbing,pls understand me. Thanks.
(If you have references or some snippets, i'll be glad if u can share.)
scsfdevThe JDBC-ODBC bridge wasn't recognizing any of the primary keys I had set up in SQL Server. After lots of head banging, here's the solution I came up with:
1. Download the appropriate driver. SQL Server 2000 requires the SQL Server 2000 JDBC driver (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=07287B11-0502-461A-B138-2AA54BFDC03A&displaylang=en).
SQL Server 2005 download: (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=C47053EB-3B64-4794-950D-81E1EC91C1BA&displaylang=en)
3. After installing, right-click on "Libraries" in your project, and choose "Add Library...". Next, give it a name (i.e. SQLServer2000), and select "Class Libraries".
4. On the next screen, find the JAR files (should be in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\), and add them under the "Classpath" tab. It will now be available under "Libraries" for future projects.
5. You can now create a connection to a specific database under the "Services" tab (next to "Projects" and "Files" in the top left of the screen). Select "Microsoft Sql Server 2000 (Microsoft Driver)" and format the "Database URL" like this:
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver//YOURSERVER:1433;DatabaseName=YOURDATABASE
1433 is the default port, though your DBA may have changed it.
I posted a simpler version of this on the NetBeans.org FAQ page - they had the following title with no content on the answer page:
"Cannot Select Tables From MsSql 2000 Because It Says No Primary Key Next To Each Table But The Tables DO Have A Primary Key. What Do I Do?" -

Bley,
Yes, you can use your PCI-6025E and SCXI-1000 with Virtual Bench. Do you have a more specific concern? Have you tried this setup, and it is not working?

Can't connect to any webpages with any browser
Our Powerbook G4 can not connect to any webpages with any browser (safari, firefox, IE) but other TCP/IP applications work fine. IE, the AOL application can connect via TCP/IP, iChat and skype both work fine.
Any idea?
Thanks,
AlanIt sounds to me like either a DNS server issue, or your Mac is looking for a web proxy and not finding it.
If you don't have the DNS server filled out in your network settings, find out the DNS IP info from an ISP and try inputting it.
Also, click on the Proxies tab in Network Settings to see if you have a proxy configuration listed (either automatic config or manually inputted proxies per port). If you do, disable the proxies and try again. If not, see if you can get the web proxy info for where you are from either your ISP or your work place.
