10.4 clients group selection when logging in...

We have a couple eMacs that we have to keep around and they can't upgrade past 10.4. However, when students log in, they are presented with the choice of selecting which group they want to log in as. They're only used basically for one program (although others are useable), which is put on the dock via the computer list in WGM, so it doesn't really matter which option they choose, but it can be confusing and annoying to constantly have to do this. Is there a way to log them in automatically with the group with the most access (and have it merge dock items from the other groups, which it doesn't seem to do in 10.4)?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Help with a group issue when logging out of Skype

    If I exit Skype then restart it and log back in, I can't access some groups. Clicking on them in the recent tab will set my focus back to what I was already on and won't display the chat at all. The only fix I have found is to reinstall Skype.
    Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this?

    I'm guessing this is pre cloud groups. When in a chat group type /get name in the chat. If the reply starts with a 19: , your in a cloud based chat, if it starts with #skypename you're in a p2p chat.
    The newest versions 6.22 and above uses cloud chat the lesser ones do not. If the chats are p2p, you might want to downgrade to the 6.21 one.

  • Only receive distribution group- mails when logged on.

    Hi,
    Is there a way to automatically disable mail-receiving for users when they are not logged on to the AD?
    We use distribution groups to deliver mails to platform-agents.
    Most of them only need to receive mails when they are at work.
    Thanks for your ideas,

    Hi Tester, sorry about the delay in response. I would like to understand your issue more and what you are trying to achieve.
    Does the users need to receive emails sent to a distribution group (that they are part of) only during  8am to 5 pm? something like that?
    The answer really depends on the setup that you have but for the most part, emails sent to Exchange and immediately processed and delivered to the respective mailboxes. Perhaps you can schedule email delivery from the outlook client - when someone is sending
    the original email to the distribution.
    Regards.

  • "no rows selected" when logged in as "system"

    I am using Oracle Express Edition 10g. I log into Run SQL Command Line as system and create a table. I run a "select * from TABLE;" and can access it fine. I log out (close SQL Command Line) and then re-open and login again as system. Now when I run "select * from TABLE;" I get "no rows selected". I even tried "select * from system.TABLE;" but still get "no rows selected". What am I doing wrong?

    I did'nt know that when using the SQL Command Line that autocommit was set to off by
    default.That's standard setting with a good reason -> setting AUTOCOMMIT to ON is very tricky cause you can not use anymore ROLLBACK statement (undo some or all database changes made during the current transaction).
    Cheers!

  • MS Project Pro file on Project Server 2010 does not accept [No Group] selection when clicking on Group view

    MS Project Server 2010 gives me the following error when I try to click on the [No Group] group:

    I have seen this error message several times when the project got corrupted due to drops in my network connection while the enterprise project was open.  If memory serves me correctly, the method for resolving this problem is to use the Save For
    Sharing feature.  To do this, complete the following steps:
    Add the Save for Sharing button to your Quick Access Toolbar, if you have not already done so previously.  Use the Project Options dialog for this.
    Open the project in question and click the Save for Sharing button.
    In the Save for Sharing dialog, save the MPP file in a location where you can find it easily, such as your Desktop.
    Close the MPP file and then reopen it.
    Click File > Save As and then click the Save button.
    Using this process, Microsoft Project will resolve the corruption in your project.  Please let us know if this process works for you.

  • Clients get stuck when logging out current user

    I'm using ARD 3.1 to control 9 different Macs (from G4's with 10.3.9 to Dual G5's with 10.4.8, all with 3.1 clients, all with several user accounts) in the same company in Germany. I'm connected to the company through an SSH tunnel all the time.
    Some of these Macs regulary go to "ARD Not Active" after I log out any current user from the Apple menu on that computer (i. e. if I want to log out the admin and switch back to some normal user).
    From my end it then looks as if this computer would be down, but actually the computer is still on and seems to be in some kind of deep sleep that can only be ended by hitting some keys on the keyboard in Germany or sometimes even only by restarting the computer.
    This happpens frequently on 3 of these 9 computers. 2 of them have 10.4.8 and 1 has 10.4.6. The same thing also happened all the time with ARD 3.0.
    Any idea what this might be and how I could fix this? It's often very annoying because I have to wait for the next day before I can continue to work on these computers.
    Thanks and greetings

    Part of your problem sounds like the energy saver settings are putting the machine to sleep. You might be able to wake them simply by executing a "Wake" command on the computers.
    You could also set the energy saver settings to not allow the machines to go to sleep.

    I have a Win7Pro SP1 PC locked down with a Group Policy as it is a public facing PC. PDF fillable forms cannot be completed when logged on as the restricted user. The forms work as a normal user. What are the user requirements/permissions needed to fill forms?

    Well, try this (I was able to fix my with these steps):
    Go Utilities > Disk Utility
    Select your Startup Disk, e.g. Macintosh HD
    Then, under the First Aid Tab, click Verify Disk Permissions.
    If there are errors, then click repair Disk Permissions.
    After it is done, restart the computer and see if your problem is resolved.
    I hope this help.

    Hi,
    Please check ULS log for more information about error to help narrow down the issue.
    If you find error message as "the service '/_vti_bin/spclaimproviderwebservice.svc' cannot be activated due to an exception during compilation, The exception message is: This collection already contains an address with scheme http, There can be
    at most one address per scheme in this collection.
    http://xblogs.kompas-xnet.si/post/SharePoint-Designer-2013-Crashing-when-using-select-peoplegroups-from-SharePoint-site.aspx
    Then the issue might be caused by more than one IIS Site Binding in single web application.
    Please firstly remove AAM settings following the steps below:
    In IIS manager, remove the added url binding from IIS site for SharePoint web application.
    In CA, remove url under AAM settings and execute IISReset. Now you can check if the issue is resolved.
    If you need to configure AAM for your web application, please extend web application and set AAM on the extended web application.

  • Group folders when using Lion server machine as a client

    Hi,
    I want to use the server we use in a small lab as a client as well. Most of the collaborative work is done in a group folder, which works perfectly on all clients.
    However, when I log into the OD on that sever on the server itself (as a OD user) the logon procedure correctly finds that it should mount the group folder.
    However it also sees that the shared folder is a local folder, so it suggests (complains) that I should use the file locally instead.
    This is all wery well, but I have applications where the config items require a path to be specified. This path now differs between computers (server computer v.s. pure clients) which creats a problem for me.
    So, how do I make the server (loop) mount itself as if it was a pure client (and not complain about it)?
    Please help me.

  • Error when logging into IC Web Client  - CRM 5.0

    Hi All
    I have configured the IC Web client including the communication management software information . I am trying to use CCS.
    I get the following error messages when I logon to Web Client.
    1.Already logged in; multichannel services ended in your other sessions
    2.X channel is not available 
    3.Failed to log into the queue X
    also I am getting the Java script error on the IE 6.0.
    SAM_session not defined etc.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sai,
    Kindly make sure that you have JREE1.4.0 and  not above for  your  error.
    Secondly, you are getting the first message because when you are closing your application by clicking onto the close at top, it doesnt log out your agent from the Webclient. The correct approach would be to close using the path Menu Bar> File> Close
    The channels are not  available because you have not maintained the queues and channels for your system. The same is do be done in SAP Easy Acess> Webclient> Additional Settings. It is also available in the Best Practices C78.

  • Code group & selected sets

    Can anybody please tell me,
    Why & when it is necessary to maintain code group & selected sets. Where it is then use. What is releation between them.Will appreciate if explain with suitable example from industry. Please helpout.Newcomer in QM.

    HI
    code groups are used in Notifications and quality result parameters.
    Code groups are used to combine and structure codes within a catalog type
    code groups at client level to group codes that have the same contents or relate to one another, within a catalog type. Codes, that are assigned to a code group are also known as group codes.
    When you maintain the code group index, the system locks the required catalog type for other users. However, if you use the individual maintenance function, only the required code group is locked.
    these are can ot create by plant wise.
    1.when you have material which measures by means of color then you canhave code group color and codes of red ,black etc..
    2.if you have defect codes then you can mention them
    3.if you have problems of perticular part, then in notification by use of codegroups and codes you can enter the data.
    A selected set contains a combination of different codes at plant level, for example, coded descriptions of characteristic attributes (such as color, shape, surface characteristics), defect causes or usage decisions from different code groups.
    selected sets to combine codes from several code groups for processing that are allowed or useful for a particular application.
    Codes that are copied into a selected set are known as set codes.
    When you maintain the selected set index, the system locks the required catalog type for other users. However, if you use the individual maintenance function, only the required selected set is locked.
    4.with combinationof code and code groups you can create the selected sets , canbe used in Usage decission.(ex:aprroved, no approved,ok, not ok etc)

  • Local apps crash when logged in as Xserve user - HELP!

    I run a new elementary school mac lab: 24 eMacs (OS 10.4.2) as managed users/groups with remote home directories on an Xserve. We run the programs locally and save to the server. Many of our apps are crashing leaving the OS fine. These are new OSX educational titles from various quality vendors including The Learning Company (Kid Pix Deluxe 4, Storybook Weaver Deluxe) and Tom Snyder Productions (Neighborhood Map Machine). And these are the only apps run so far! Our eMacs have 512 MB Ram. I use an iMac G5 with 1GB Ram as the instructor. These apps quit ALOT; however, when logged in as an administrator to the local machine, the apps do NOT quit. I've tried the various solutions posted in the Tiger discussions regarding font removal and system cache cleaning...to no avail. I'm beginning to think it may be server-related. HELP!!!

    "System Administrator" is the system access for the xserve. "Administrator" is your system access for the user/client computers, when logged in as that, it allows you access to the system "no restriction". I use one "name" for system access for all servers and clients on campus. I have alot of older applications that we run that have their own issues but not permissions, they run under OS 9. Newer apps like Mavis Beacon16 and Carmen SanDiego I had to tweak, I run them server based. I assume you have Apple Remote Desktop running. Set one of your lab computers up as a back up administrator/tester with ARD and all the server apps installed. I had all my new iMac G5 go bad (Bad Capacitors) and they were my Admin computers. Tweak one app at a time, get it running the way you want it to. Have a student abuse/test the app. Once it works correctly shoot the app to the other clients via ARD. This way your only fixing on machine. Setting Read/Write is a quick fix to get them up and running, But you are opening up the applications to the students who a very creative and never read dialog boxes. If you leave them open you will have to reinstall them occasionally to get them working again. I have had students change the name of a file and the app quits working. That is the major problem of Read/Write.

  • Client SSID selection with Band Select

    Hi,
    We have 2 SSID's. One configured for WPA\TKIP and another configured for WPA2\AES.
    All clients have both SSID's configuration deployed via group policy with the WPA2\AES SSID being given priority in the windows supplicant.
    However, I am seeing that some clients will connect to AP's using the WPA\TKIP SSID even when they support WPA2\AES and are configured to use WPA2\AES SSID first.
    I've been trying to understand why this might happen and I was thinking that perhaps the band select feature could be causing this for clients with only b\g\n radios. By delaying the probe response to the probe request for the WPA2\AES SSID the client then selects WPA\TKIP SSID.
    Has any else seen similair behavoir?
    Thanks

    I have to say it sounds like a client issue. Capture 802.11 and see what is being negotiated by the client and ap.
