Unable to set node credentials...

I have setup the server as an OD master, and up until now it hasn't had problems binding, although I haven't been able to get any users to authenticate for any services, other than my local admin account.
I haven't made any changes, but now when opening ServerPrefs, I get the following error:
"Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name server.mydomain.com$ There may be a problem with the Open Directory service."
Any ideas where I went wrong?

It isn't something that a patch is going to cure.
I believe it does have something to do with the network and probably therefore the ip address / naming as the authentication does seem to be tied to the network location.
I've managed to move things on a little in that I have bound user accounts on other machines such that when someone logs onto their laptop it will tell them they have an account on the server and provide a logon after which their account is bound and (I think) marked as 'managed' in their Preferences | Accounts. This provides additional sections in iCal and Address Book although these don't work. The only person who can log into the web stuff such as the wiki is the server admin and I still can't access the Server Preferences or authenticate the Server Admin so can't make much in the way of changes.
I've submitted my application to Apple for support using the card provided with the Mac Mini. This was last Thursday and I've not yet received confirmation that this is live. As soon as it is I'll be having a long conversation with Apple Support.
I sort of sympathise with Apple as the server is clearly at least an order of magnitude more complicated than the admin involved with just a desktop. Having said this, however, they do need to get this sort of thing sorted by making it slicker, providing more online support for these problems if they have any aspirations towards the smaller office or even home environment which don't have dedicated IT support staff.

  • Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`.

    When starting Server Preferences, I receive a window with the following text:Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with record name n`. There may be an error with the Open Directory Service.
    This started to occur after I used the command changeip to change the ip of the service.
    I've tried (Re)starting Open Directory Service, but that doesn't resolve it.
    Does anyone know how I can resolve this error? I'd like to be able to user Server Preferences again!

    One of our servers (10.6.8)  that had been running for months suddenly started generating that error message when trying to access Server Preferences.  Workgroup Manager, which seems to use the same login information, accessed just fine. We tried deleting access information in Keychain, to no avail. What finally worked for US was:
    - Via Server Admin, (in Open Directory > Settings > General) change the Role: Open Directory from Master to Standalone
    - This (for us) then restored access to Server Prefs
    - Use Server Admin to change the Role back to Master
    Warnings - 1)  backup first  2) you will have to reinstall the master password, and  3) ALL accounts were lost and had to be recreated.

  • Has anyone encounter this "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3"?

    Install and updated the Macmini server to 10.6.5. It working fine until try to access the Server Preferences and error message "unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 with the record name **." Looking at the logs and has servermgr_accounts got error 5203 trying to auth to local LDAP node. Has anyone found solution for this problem?
    Thanks

    Thank you for responding. This is what we are using in a small company a Cisco Switcher, and don't have a router.
    If you're getting connections off of the network out to the Internet, then yes, there is a router involved. Somewhere.
    MacMini server I have an IP address of 169.254.xxx.xx, before IP address was 192.254.xxx.xx.
    That IP address implies that the box isn't getting an IP address from a DHCP server; that's the self-assigned block. (Officially, these addresses are in the Automatic Private Address Configuration Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) IANA reserved range.)
    Which implies that at least two problems lurk.
    Mac OS X Server must have a static IP address. Not DHCP-assigned dynamic addresses.
    And a DHCP server isn't answering the IP address requests. (Well, not unless the DHCP server is passing out addresses in the self-assigned block, and that wouldn't likely be considered best-practice. More likely an IP address from a DHCP address pool allocated within a subnet somewhere in the 10.0.0.0/8 or 172.16.0.0/12 or (less desirably) 192.168.0.0/16 private blocks.
    The Firewall is not turned on. Its purpose is for guest to access files, without deleting or modifying it.
    When you're debugging problems, simplify. Divide the problem. With network services, test the lowest levels of the stack. Then work your way up the stack; toward higher-level services and mechanisms. Then add more parts and pieces, and DHCP and related.
    IP hosts operating at 169.254.0.0/16 addresses (for longer than it takes to get an IP address from DHCP) usually implies that the network configuration is invalid or the DHCP server is not working.
    I did not expect that Open Directory would be a big problem.
    If DNS services or IP routing is misconfigured, then the whole rest of the stack will be unstable at best. The configuration order (and debugging order) involves functional IP networking and hardware, first and foremost. Then having functional DNS. Then Open Directory and then Kerberos. Then the rest of the stack.

  • Unable to set node credentials for /LDAPv3 query

    Hi,
    I've seen a number of threads on here about the above message, but most are answered/archived, so no replies are allowed.
    I managed to set up the Mac Mini server and get a VPN up and running quite successfully, however the upload speed was incredibly slow (especially given what the ISP advertises). I thought bypassing my airport extreme may help this, so I attempted to plug directly into the modem (which is a router in itself, but pretty limited). I have 5 static public IP's from my ISP, so I configured the Mac Mini to have one which I knew wasn't being used. Connection to internet all worked, but this message began appearing when I tried to go into Server Preferences (to change VPN settings)
    I've read that this message often occurs in relation to static IPs, or rather the lack of. Given that I had assigned the Mac Mini to one of the static IP's, I'm not certain what the problem might have been.
    Plugging the server back into the Airport Extreme, and reconfiguring the network settings for the router setup fixed the issue, and I was able to access Server Prefs again.
    My knowledge in this area isn't all that vast, so I'm sort of learning as I go, so please be as plain and simple as you can - thanks a lot!

  • [Solved] Unable to set preferred credentials

    (Windows 2003, SP2 for all computers ... locked down by local administrators) Grid Control Rel 2 with patches (but not up to R3).
    I created a test userid, made it part of the local administration group, added it to the 4 required privileges "log on as batch", "replace process level token", "act as part of OS", and "adjust memory quotas". When I attempt to set te preferred credentials, I get the error
    "Connection to cepaoas63.COE.ADS as user test failed."
    That's all. No reason is given, as indicated by some of the other similar queries.
    Questions:
    - Any other privs normally required (and possibly normally given to administrators)?
    - Any other policy setting your can think of that might defeat this?
    - Any firewall stuff that might have an effect?

    OEM Grid Control Version is: 10.2.0.2
    Windows Version is: Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2
    I had no issues with installing this version 10.2.0.2. My remote agents are uploading information back to OEM and I can see this information in OEM. I just cannot set the host preferred credentials which means I cannot take advantage of the maintenance features like scheduling a backup.
    I originally tried to install 10.2.0.2 and upgrade to 10.2.0.3 but the OEM wasn't working after I did the uprade. So I did a fresh install on another server and just stayed at 10.2.0.2. I don't have a requirement to be at any particular version.

  • Unable to set Host Preferred Credentials in OEM

    Hi Experts,
    I installed Oracle 10g R2 on on windows machine (XP Professional SP2).
    Everything is OK except I can't set Host Preferred Credentials.
    I logged in Windows using Windows Domain account, connected EM DB console as sysdba.
    I used domain user name to set Host Credentials and get the error:
    Connection to "mysystemname" as user xxxx failed: ERROR: Wrong password for user
    I also added the user to "Log on as a batch job" under Local policies.
    Then I set oracle as Host Credential, still get the same error.
    Please help me how should I set the Host Credentials for Oracle 10g on Windows?
    Thanks in advance

    The keyword here is domain user, so not local user.
    Normally Oracle runs using a local account, and you need that local account to connect.
    You can try to make sure the domain account is a member of the local ora_dba group.
    If that doesn't work, you probably need to start the Oracle service using a domain administrator account.

    I am looking to solve without buying DiskWarrior unless only resort.

    So it looks like  solved it for now I will update later. What I did was after starting from the install cd for the 10.6 system I ran from terminal ran:
    diskutil disablejournaling /dev/disk0s2
    diskutil disableownership /dev/disk0s2
    diskutil repairPermissions /dev/disk0s2
    then i closed terminal and then when to disk utility and chose to repair disk with results all was fine. Then ran repair permissions and got similar results from terminal function next I erased disk and then chose to restore from time machine and it is now restoring! yea!

  • Unable to create node /home/ SID adm with type directory

    I am currently experiencing a problem when trying to install a Java Stack onto my new SCM 7.0  EHP1 server.
    I receive the error:
    System call failed.  Error 89......mkdir..../home/djdadm....
    (djd is the SID of my new Java AS)
    This is followed by an error:
    Unable to create node /home/djdadm with type directory
    We have Solaris v10 (SPARC), and the ABAP stack has already been installed successfully.
    The user djdadm was created manually on solaris before starting the installation (assigned to groups sapsys, dba, sapinst + oper) and the home directory "/usr/sap/DJD/home" was specified. 
    Note the difference in the home directory that it is trying to create to the one that we set against the new user djdadm.
    This error is experienced quite early in when SAPINST is performing the tasks (and it stops at the Create users for SAP system stage).
    I was experiencing a problem where SAPINST crashed completely for a while, so I've downloaded the latest version of SAPINST today.  Also, I've set a new TEMP folder and am running SAPINST from there, but am stuck at the problem mentioned above.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello,
    It looks like a Solaris issue. Check if the home directory /home is reserved in the Solaris configuration.                                                                               
    You may try this in that case:       
    1. modify /etc/auto_master file to change the entry for '/home' to say 
       '/autohome' instead                                                  
    2. reboot                                                              
    3. rmdir /home                                                         
    4. ln -s /export/home /home (make sure /export/home exists)

  • Unable to set preferred credential for host with virtual host/IP

    I have installed agent on multiple hosts. For the host which has virtual IPs, I am not able to set preferred credentials or run OS commands. On other nodes, everything is fine
    Please advice
    Thanks

    For agent i'm using 'Local System' and for preferred credentials i'm using <Domain>\<Users>. This is working fine on all other hosts but on Cluster Node its failing.
    Oh yes, agent is UP.

  • "Unable to find node..." error

    Does anyone have any idea what the error below is trying to tell me???
    I'm getting these every time I try to sync this same package file called "personal notebook.ntx".
    1) When I look inside the package file there is no such file. There is a file called "req_of.gif", but no file with a "._" preceeding. On top of that this is a standard AFP based home directory (not CIFS, or NFS).
    2) Every time the sync runs, the file that gets the error CHANGES! So one time it'll be the file I just mentioned, the next time it'll be this file:
    "Documents/NoteTaker-NoteShare/Personal/personal notebook.ntx/Attachments/._s117018.jpg"
    The next time I'll be this file:
    "Documents/NoteTaker-NoteShare/Personal/personal notebook.ntx/Attachments/.smlogo2.gif"
    And so on. There are about 84 files in that directory and if the automatic syncs are let run enough times, it will eventually generate an error on most of the files in that directory (but not all

    Hmmm, Ok, this is helpful, however we're now in an area I'm rather unfamiliar with so need some more help (thanks for this by the way).
    First what I know...
    * Everything below the directory "personal notebook.ntx" is part of a package and not directly under my control but under control of an application called Notetaker. I have however, been having to look into the packages a lot recently due to the fact that the modification dates don't seem to work the same in Leopard as they did in Tiger (I mentioned this in another thread, but no one seem to have any insight on it http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1244035&tstart=0). By looking into the package seemed to be the only way to be able to verify whether or not my files were being sync'ed correctly as I could no longer rely on modification dates.
    * Checking the rest of the files in the package shows that a lot but not all of the files have that attribute set. All the files in that directory have that attribute set.
    * I don't consistently get the same file to error out every time. If I run the sync two times in a row with no changes what-so-ever a different file will generate the error.
    So questions that come to mind since I haven't dealt with extended attributes very much....
    * Are you saying that the extended attributes could only have been set by a Leopard client? A Tiger client would not have been able to set them? (I'm syncing these files between Leopard and Tiger clients).
    * what is the "com.apple.FinderInfo" attribute? Can I delete it? What would I lose? The fact that not all files in the package have this makes me wonder whether or not it's necessary.
    * why would FileSyncAgent have a problem with extended attributes?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Illustrator won't run: "unable to set maximum number of files to be opened"

    I have an intel macbook pro (core duo with 2GB ram) and a copy of purchased adobe creative suite 2. Other applications in the suite like photoshop, acrobat, etc can run on my mac without any problem. But when I try to run illustrator, it just shows an error message "Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened" and quits. I also installed a trial version of illustrator cs3 and got the same problem. Can anyone help? Thanks.

  • Service Desk Unable to set status to Customer Action and Proposed Solution

    Hi Everyone,
    We are unable to set a service desk issue to the status Customer Action or Proposed solution.
    I have someone create a new issue in the bakend system and when I receive the issue I assign it to myself as the processor. When I try to set teh status to Customer action it is grayed out.
    I have checked the following:
    1. As a test I assigned My user with sap_all profile so does not appear to be authroisation related
    2. The status profile has all six standard values (New, customer action, In Process, Sent to SAP, Proposed Solution, Confirmed).
    3. The transaction types have been defined using the standard profiles for Text Det. Procedure, Partnet Determination Procedure, Status Profile. The Partner Function ORG is set to Sold-To-Party , The date profile is a SRV_SLA_ITEM and the Action profile is set to SLFN0001_ADVANCED. The Org Data Prof is set to a customer defined one: ZSSC000000001.
    4. I have checked transaction ppoma_crm and the org structure and my user is assigned to a team lead position.
    Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    please check your status profile for the "lowest status no." and "highest status no." values of the status values as Alex mentioned!
    You can find this in SPRO under "SAP Solution Manager> Scenario-Specific Settings>Service Desk>Service Desk>Status Profile".
    If the "high" value of the status "New" is lower than the status number of status "Customer Action" than you can not set the message from "New" to "Customer Action"!
    Hope this helps,
    Christoph

  • Unable to set the selected value for a ADF LOV

    Hi,
    I am developing an application using jdeveloper 10.1.3 and Struts.
    I have created a ADF LOV on my JSP Page as given below:
    <html:select property="lob" onchange="javascript:selectLOB(this.form)">
    <html:optionsCollection label="prompt" value="index" property="lob.displayData"/>
    </html:select>
    When i submit the form, i am able to get the value of the selected Value in the List.
    JUCtrlListBinding listBinding = (JUCtrlListBinding) formBean.get("Lob");
    Row r = (Row) listBinding.getSelectedValue();
    String SoLob = (String) r.getAttribute("LobLob");
    But i am unable to set the selected value back in the list when i return to the form again.
    I tried the following:
    int x = listBinding.getSelectedIndex();
    listBinding.setSelectedIndex(x);
    It would be really helpful if some one could let me know what needs to be done.
    Thanks,
    Subashini

    Gyan,
    I tried with the code you suggest , its trying to set the value of a field, but my requirement is to change the property for
    "Rendered" on the field so that based on search parameters we can hide result table column.
    After searching online, I modified the controller code as follows
    1.Created a new transient attribute (Testrender) with type "Boolean" and always updateable.
    2.changed the "Rendered" property value on the field I want to hide as ${oa.PoSearchVO1.Testrender}.
    3. Modified the controller code as follows :
            OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
            OAViewObject testvo = (OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("PoSearchVO1");
            OADBTransaction txn = am.getOADBTransaction();
            if (testvo != null)
              OARow row = (OARow)testvo.first();
                if (a.equalsIgnoreCase("Approved"))
                     row.setAttribute("Testrender", Boolean.FALSE);
                else
                     row.setAttribute("Testrender", Boolean.TRUE);
            } But now when i run the page and populate the search field and click "Go" its hiding the field but throwing the following error and the search results are also bad.
    Its using only the value of one search parameter but not the second one .
    The search cannot be executed because the table has pending changes that would be lost. I think the vo is getting dirty when I update the transient attribute value. So I used txn.rollback ,then search is working fine but its not hiding the field.
    So can you please let me know how to proceed from here ?
