10.4.7 Server- Client login problem - missing the obvious?

used a similar setup on Xserve G4 and G5 without problems ...
Client: 10.4.7 MacBook/ G4 PowerBook
Server - dome G4 iMac - 10.4 retail - upgraded to 10.4.7
- Kerberos running
- DNS resolves to FQDN on server and client including reverse lookup
- User home share is mounted on client under Network
- from Finder -> Connect to Server you can access the home share
- authentication and login works for a user Without a home folder on the server
- when logging in as a user with home folder on the server you don't get an error message on the client, but login screen stays
- on the server it shows AFP connection for the user
- you can SSH into the client
- clearing caches etc on the client does not make a difference
- IP manually configured on server and client
- network eliminated by using cross-over lead
- client Bind successful
- client displays network users
On the server you can login as an account with home folder on AFP share and get access to the homefolder
- kept path to homefolder short
- same happens with homefolder on the default Users share
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Wouter

Try removing ACL's controling the drive that the homefolders are on.

Exporting slideshows results in file with only the first picture then a blank white screen with music. Apple bug or am I missing the obvious?

When I export slideshows the result is a file with only the first picture then a blank white screen with music. Apple bug or am I missing the obvious?

Usually when the phone shows just the white Apple logo, it indicates an issue with the system software that prevents the phone from finishing it's boot sequence. When this happens, you will need to restore the phone, which removes all data and replaces the system software with a fresh set.
Since the phone is not seen in iTunes when it's in this state, you will have to put it into DFU mode for iTunes to see it.
To put the phone in DFU mode:
- make sure the phone is connected to a computer with the current version of iTunes on it.
- hold the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously for 8 seconds.
- let go of the sleep/wake button and continue pressing the home button. The iTunes screen will show a short progress bar then show a dialog box stating that an iPod was detected that is in recovery mode.
-click OK
-click the Restore button in the middle of the iTunes page
After the restore the phone should be back up and running and you can sync your data back.

Leopard client login problem (Tiger server)... why can't I authenticate?

I look after a number of Macs and PCs at my company. Most Macs are running the latest version of Tiger but the newest machine came with Leopard. All users log into network accounts on our Xserve, running OSX Server (Tiger). However, the Leopard client machine refuses to log in to any network account, including the one I set up specifically for the machine's user, shaking its login window at me.
Users connect using Open Directory Master on the server and none of the Tiger clients have ever had problems logging in.
On the troublesome client machine, I have bound to the server correctly in Directory Utility which declares that the server is responding normally. At the login screen I get a green light and "Network Accounts Available" when I click through the options above the user name field so I know the machine can see the server.
I can successfully log in to a local account and subsequently mount the server volumes using the new name and password I've set up for the user.
What have I missed?
So far, in my attempts to resolve this I have done the following:
Removed the password from the new account;
Unbound from the server, changed the short name of the computer, re-bound to the server;
Tried logging in to other accounts known to be working;
In WGM checked that the NFSHomeDirectory entry shows the complete path for the user's home directory;
Trawled through endless forums for clues.
Kerberos is not running. Does it need to be for authenticating Leopard users?
Is there an issue with clear text passwords in Leopard? Seemingly eliminated through a no-password test account.
I'm sure that I logged in successfully once after setting up the machine but, after installing Leopard updates, logging in has consistently failed.
Anyone else having similar problems? Better yet, anyone have any answers?

No need to apologize. I learned the same way you are...
I think you may end up re-binding the 10.4 clients if you kerberize the server.
You may want to go to the server forum for folks with more definitive annswers.

In any case, make sure you have a reliable backup before you do anything.

Java Server/Client Applicaton - problem with sending data back

Hello!
I'm trying to write a small server/client chat application in Java. It's server with availability to accept connections from many clients and it's app just for fun... However, I've come up against a huge problem: everything what clients send, arrives to server (I'm sure about that because it is displayed on the Server Application screen) and then server should send it back to all clients but it doesn't work. I have no faintest idea what causes this problem. Maybe you can help me?
Here is my server app code:

}By the way, this app is mainly written in English language (text that appears on the screen) however in functions I used Polish language (for example: BLAD - it means ERROR in English). Sorry for that :)

Yeap, I will change those exceptions later, thanks for advice.
You asked what's going on with it: both applications start with no errors, but when I write something in client side it should be sent to the server and then forwarded to all connected clients but it stops somewhere. However, I added a one line to the server code
line = in.readUTF();
System.out.println(line);
sendToAll(line); and after it reads message from client (no matter which one) it shows that message on the server side screen, then it should send this message to all clients but it doesn't work in this moment. What's confusing: no errors occurs, so it's rather a mistake in my code, but where?

Oracle server & client deinstallation problems

my system configuration is:
windows 2000 professionnal (SP2)
on this machine, i had the oracle client software installed (verion 8.17)
i needed the machine to install on it an oracle database, so i deinstalled the client software with the oracle 8.i CD and did not remove three datasources (user DSN driver microsoft ODBC for oracle) that used to work with the previous client version. Then, i installed the oracle server software and created the database.
the problem at this step is that i could not use the data sources that i had nither could i use the driver to create another one.
so, for the second time, i deinstalled the server software and installed the client software.
my second problem, here, (after deinstalling the server software)is that i had the services oracleora81TNSListner and oracleserviceSID that are not removed and i can not stop nor resume
i'm looking for your answer (what to do with these services and what is the solution for the data sources)
regards

Final Cut Server Client Download Problems

I am attempting to install/run Final Cut Server client on my laptop and Mac tower. The other day the client software worked well on my Mac tower but today no go. I attempted to install the client software on my laptop, I can get to the download screen in a web browser by typing the address of the local server but when I press download the next page appears but no download or dialogue box appears. Also while wrestling with this problem I deleted the client software from my tower. This same issue is now happening on the tower when I try to restore the client software. Possibly related or not I just updated the software to 10.6.7. but tried another machine I have here that is at 10.6.4 with the same result. I also read an old post that described problems with download initiation and how they can be resolved by deleting a few specific resources out of the Java Preference Cash Files. I completed this process which resulted in no evident change.
BJ

Try removing the FCSvr client from your local machine and then reinstalling it from the web installer while you are connected via VPN. Run these commands in Terminal to remove it:
rm -r ~/Library/Caches/Java/
rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.finalcutserver/
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finalcutserver.plist
rm -r ~/Desktop/Final Cut Server.app
Sometimes my client just won't launch like you are seeing and reinstalling it within whatever network connection I'm using gets it working again.

SAP Client login problem

Hi All,
Whenever I am trying to connect to SQL server 2005 from SAP Client machine getting the following error :
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 1326

When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

What are the remote program you are using ? is it VPN, Citrix or Terminal Service ?
SAP B1 supports only citrix or terminal service.

Hi Vlad Dodin,
I want to get more information about this issue.
Had you got any error messages during the login process?
If no domain users can log into those PCs?

10.9.4 Server client logins hanging

I have a new MacPro running 10.9.4 with Server 3.1.2. After running for a few hours, it stops accepting new logins until I restart it.
I've been seeing errors from xscertd-helper in the system log, with what looks like a randomly garbled entry at the end of the line (this garbled text varies each time I restart the Mac):
Aug 29 12:54:10 authmaster.blahblah.org xscertd-helper[289]: Failed to find CRL, unknown CA : êsAwˇ
Aug 29 12:54:14 authmaster.blahblah.org xscertd-helper[289]: Failed to find CRL, unknown CA : êsAwˇ
Eventually, servermgrd starts throwing event_handle errors and that's more or less when the logins stop working.

This machine was in the box a couple of weeks ago, and the server & OS is a completely fresh install with all new users, connecting to a new SAN for storage. Sessions are AFP. We're using network home directories stored on the SAN.
I'm looking for suggestions on what might be wrong, and where I might start debugging the xscertd-helper errors.
Thanks!
R.

Okay, some progress. I started looking around for the error message in Google and ran into this posting: Replica Issues
This seemed to suggest that a person with a replication problem was getting almost exactly the same kind of errors. Between that and the fact that I was seeing some errors related to contacting one of my replica servers, I decided to nuke the replica and see what happened. As a result, the xscert-helper error seems to have cleared up and I'm no longer seeing any warnings related to the replica server, either.
Next step will be to recreate the replica and see whether the errors recur.

Crm client login problem

I have installed CRM 2005(ides version) on windows 2003.after installation I got 3 default clients(000,001,800).I can login to 000,001 but I cant login through 800 client using sap*.I have checked logging with password pass and the password which I have mentioned when installing,Both the passwords are not correct.can anyone help in this regard.

Hi Jan,
That's because it uses a different user logon not CRM logon.
You need to create an employee business partner. Then in the admin console create the username and password for that employee. Then create a subscription for that user (publication user) and assign it to your site. Download data to mobile and logon to it.
Cheers
Andrew

R12 Client Login Problem

I have successfully installed EBS r12 in a Windows 2003 Server and I can directly login on Vision in the Windows 2003 server by sysadmin username & password via
http://tpcl.tpclnh.local:8008/OA_HTML/AppsLogin
The IP address of my Windows 2003 is 10.130.128.220
Then I tried logging in the Application through some workstations on the LAN through http://10.130.128.220:8008
A page shown
The E-Bussiness Home Page is located at http://tpcl.tpclnh.local:8008/OA_HTML/AppsLogin
The browser autmatically redirects the page to http://tpcl.tpclnh.local:8008/OA_HTML/AppsLogin
But Internet Explorer cannot not display the webpage.
What can I do to make the workstation logging in the system?

Add an entry on the LAN workstation's c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
10.130.128.220 tpcl.tpclnh.local tpcl
Or register the server in your company's DNS.
Then use the http://tpcl.tpclnh.local:8008/OA_HTML/AppsLogin URL.

Login problems with the provisioning console

Hello,
I have a single-box installation of Oracle Collaboration Suite 10.1.2 on a Win2k3 box. I installed the following components:
Oracle Calendar Server
Oracle Calendar Application System
Oracle Collaboration Suite Web Access
Oracle Collaboration Portlets
The installation went by smoothly and all of the performed verification tests were performed successfully.
But, I'm having the problem that when I cannot login to the Provisioning console. The login screen just stays waiting for the authorization to go through after entering the orcladmin credentials. I definitely get an error message (the user or password is incorrect) if I type in a wrong password or a different user (at this point I'm guessing that the only active account is orcladmin since I haven't been able to configure any other account).
I don't know what is going on or how to begin debugging this situation. I tried the ldapbind command on the command prompt and the bind was successful with just the port and the orcladmin user.
Can anyone help me? Which logs should I verify for errors? Has this happened to someone else before?
I don't know if this could also affect it, but there is an Oracle Collaboration Suite 9.0.4 on the same domain. Would that affect this in anyway?
Thanks,
Ana

I don't think that they are conflicting. The servers are on two seperate machines.
Plus, I can connect just fine to the Oracle 10's Oracle Directory Manager using the default port 389.
I did some investigations using an HTTP tracking tool. When I try to login to the provisioning console, I keep looping through the following HTTP responses:
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Location: http://oracleserver/oiddas/ui/oracle/ldap/das/pages/UserSearch
GET /oiddas/ui/oracle/ldap/das/pages/UserSearch HTTP/1.1

Plex Problems (Missing something obvious)

Okay, so I am fairly new (Okay brand new) to arch linux. I have been messing with it in order to start a plex media server in my home. I have successfully installed arch linux, ssh, plex, iptables etc. However, whenever I go to run
sudo systemctl start plexmediaserver
I get the following

I have checked ps -aux and plex isn't showing up there and I have rebooted thinking maybe I accidentally ran the same command twice but received the same message. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome.
Thanks!!

Side note, do you need Plex Server? As in, what is the client device that is going to connect to it? I use and totally recommend: Universal Media Server. I don't know how it runs as a service however, I have an autostart entry in my session that starts it when I log in under my user which in my case is normally always logged in.

10.4.7 Server- Client login problem - missing the obvious?
