10.5.1 Client with 10.4.11 Server problems

I recently updated two clients to 10.5.1 - 1 imac G5 and 1 macbook. I can login to the network home directory fine on the imac, but not the macbook. When connecting via airport, the macbook just hangs at the login. The macbook does work when connected via ethernet. This was not the case with 10.4.11 on the client? Network accounts are available when connecting via airport, but I cannot get it to work? PLease advise.

I got Server Monitor 1.6 to work with the new Intel Xserve from a client G4 and an Intel iMac. Previously, Server Monitor gave the cannot connect message. I had tried all sorts of things like copying Server Monitor 1.6 from the server to a local computer -- it didn't work for me.
I recently installed the latest model Xserve which is an Intel processor. Luckily, I had configured Lights Out Management which is a different IP address from the Xserve.
I added the IP address of the Lights Out Management to Server Monitor and it worked. I was able to see the details of the Xserve such as, temperature, blower speeds, and so on. I could only access the Xserve if I used the Xserve's short administrator name, not the long one. The long name doesn't work but that might be due to my set-up.

10.6.1 clients with 10.5.8 server -- slow connections/lost delegate

Because of timing, I've yet to upgrade my 10.5.8 server to 10.6.1 server.
However, we've updated a number of clients here to 10.6.1
For many clients, they are finding that iCal is occasionally dumping their delegates.
They can readd them, but after a couple of more days, the delegates will get dumped again. It seems like if I add specific calendars to my list of delegates it's more obvious (so I don't necessarily know if the problem is with clients with really large calendars...)
I've filed bugs on this with Apple, but I'm wondering if anybody else has seen this and come up with a solution yet.
(I have plans to update my server in the next few weeks -- if somebody has seen this problem and has resolved it after they updated their server, let me know that as maybe I can accelerate my timetable for this upgrade....)
Thanks!

I just purchased a new macbook pro 13" w/Snow Leopard pre-installed and I am experiencing the exact same issue. I purchased a regular macbook for my wife (at the same time, about a week ago), and I was able to set up her e-mail account without any problems (same e-mail hosting provider as mine).
My e-mail account/settings work fine on my iPhone, as well as another Windows computer (yes, I have tried deleting com.apple.mail.plist and starting over).
***? I paid a premium for the macbook pro, assumably for better construction, performance, and ease of use. I did not expect to pay to be a beta tester.

Problem synchronizing windows clients with solaris 10 NTP server

Hello everyone,
I realyy need help on the following:
I tried to synchronize windows 2003 as client with NTP server running in Solaris 10
My Time Zone in the NTP server is GMT+3, and in my windows is also set to GMT+3
When I start NTP server and clients , I got 6 hours delay between the clients and the server
I tried to synchronize the Solaris server with another solaris system, the synchronization is working fine
Your help
Regards
Hakim Fourar

True (but only for later releases). But since he mentioned getting a 6 hour offset after starting them, that makes me think that the systems are communicating, and that the time zones are incorrect.
This is easily verified by using 'ntpq -p' and 'date ; date -u'. The first will show if the client thinks it is synchronized to a server (and what the UTC offset is in miliseconds). The second will show the date in the default timezone and in UTC.
If you're not using POSIX, you'd think that GMT+XX meant east of UTC, but for POSIX, it means west of UTC.

10.10 Clients with 10.6.8 Server?

I am wondering if any of you can share your experience with running 10.10 clients on a 10.6.8 server. We are currently running 10.9.4 clients using mobile accounts (no syncing) and our experience has been quite good. We are also using WGM for preferences, also acceptably working. I would like to squeeze one more year out of the servers (16 total) before looking into replacements.

This is a known bug of ML. The operating system is not compatible with AFP home directories. You will notice that FaceTime won't work either. In addition, there are sandbox problems, preferences problems and performance issues.
In my experience, the only possible workaround is to convert all forks and Extended Attributes in the home directories to AppleDouble files and then switch from AFP to NFS. This can result in Spotlight issues, but otherwise, all applications will work fine and much faster.

Using an 8.0 client with a 6.5 server

We currently have an application running on AIX and Tuxedo Client 6.5, that connects
to a 6.5 server.
We are thinking on migrating the application to Linux, and found that Linux is
only supported for Tuxedo 7.1 and higher.
Would there be any problem if we used the 8.0 client instead of the 6.5 client
to connect to the same 6.5 server?
If that was possible, then we would be able to migrate the application to Linux.
Thanks for your help,
Debora

I think you might face problem if the client is native
because client will be built with shared library
libtux.sl which will give you an unresolved symbol
error.
but if you have clients which come in as workstation client
then you should be able to connecct properly.
use WSL with -t option in that case or export an environment
variable WSOFPRE71(confirm the spelling) to yes.
thanks

Help Setting Up Windows PDC & Clients with 10.4.6 Server

Ok, here's what we have: A 10.4.6 Server set up as an OD master. Windows Services are running.
The majority of the clients are Macs, which authenticate flawlessly. What we want to do is allow the same people that use the Macs to be able to authenticate with the same account on any PC in a lab and get to their documents folder in their user home directory easily (mapped to My Documents).
We have been able to set the PCs up to the right domain, and successfully logged into them using the same accounts that the Macs use, but it's a bit squirelly. Only certain things will "save" when going back and forth between different PCs. Sometimes the background will save, sometimes it won't. Outlook Express accounts will only save on the local machine, so if they move to another PC, their OE account will not be there. Their homepage in IE will save pretty consistantly, but other setting will not. Also, we are getting this "desktop.ini" file showing up everywhere. It shows up in the start menu, in their favorites list, and in the startup items folder so it launches when they log in.
So is there a way to better "synch" the user's accounts when going back and forth between different PCs? Also, is there a way to map the My Documents folder to their Documents folder on the server? Sorry if this is confusing, but I can try to clarify if it's not clear...Thanks!

Hi there,
We do this in our place without any problems.
You say some stuff 'saves' and other stuff doesn't.
Can you be more specific ?
I take it that the permissions are correct on both the Users home directory AND the Profiles/UserName folders ?
As for that Pesky Desktop.ini file, took me a month to sort it out. There is a MSKB article on it, basically saying to delete it where it exists in 'All Users' profile on the local machines. This wasn't our problem. The file should be removed from the local users profile (there were 3 copies of it IIRC, one in Startup Item, one in Start Menu, and one in Start Menu/Program files.) Delete them all !
I think the root of the problem is the file should be hidden and windows gets upset if it's not.
Did you migrate the windows users profiles from a local profile perhaps ?

I currently am using Visibroker for C++ 4.0 on an HP-UX box and the standard Java 1.3 on clients. I have successfully communicated using the IOR from the server, but also have not been able to directly connect clients to the Visibroker NameService. So as far as the connection between the Java ORB and (I would think) any other vendor's ORB, it should work if they have the same CORBA compliance.
Though I can make a workaround for this it would be really great if I could just utilize what we have already purchased (the Visibroker NameService). Any thoughts about how to do this?

BO XI 3.1 Desktop client with XI 2 app server

We're planning to implement XI 3.1 Desktop Intelligence to a set of users. However, we realize some of them are already using XI 2.0 client to access another application that is supported out of another IT area.
We'd like to know if we upgrade their client to XI 3.1 from XI 2.0, will they still be able to access their reports sitting in the XI 2.0 platform?
Thanks,
Bonnie

my question will be if the users have XI 3.1 on their machine, can they access reports that're on a XI 2 repository? Our situation will be we will have a set of XI 2 reports running on that other IT department's machines, while we will have our Xi 3.1 reports on our servers. Can 1 user, through the XI 3.1 client on their desktop, access both applications?

Address book sync with 10.7.3 server - problem

I have an 10.7.3 server to that I have 4 Macs, 2 iPhones and 1 iPad connected.
I have enabeld Address book and iCal on the server, this works (after much headache). It works great for all devices except one of the Macs.
It has recently been updated to 10.7.3 and it refuses with no apperent reason to sync against the servers address book.
iCal works fine.
No matter what account I use the address book never syncs, orc teh activity spinner starts at the given time.
Spins for a while and the goes away.
Anyone has any clues?
The logs on the server doesnt have any kind of suggestion what could be wrong.

Have you tried rebuilding the accounts in SystemPrefs>Mail, Contacts and Calendars?
Are the machines bound to the directory?
Try setting it up in a fresh account on the broken Mac.
Try setting it up on a different Mac.
Hope this helps,
Brian

Make websites with .Mac on another server (problem!)

Hello. I have some problems with iWeb. When I start iWeb it pops up a .Mac popup, I click close and the theme chooser should be there so I can start make a homepage with iWeb. But I can't click the plus sign, neither can I select "New page" or "New site" since they are unselectable in the menu. I have reinstalled iWeb but with no luck.
I have also repaired permissions.
Here are two screenshots of it:
http://i15.tinypic.com/4c27k39.png
http://i10.tinypic.com/4fw7vgz.png
Any suggestions?

Short of reinstalling again, try this...
1. Open up iWeb and leave it open.
2. Open up iPhoto
3. Select a few photos and then click on the iWeb button at the bottom of the window
4. Select "Photo Page" from the menu
If this works, iPhoto should send your selected photos to iWeb, which will then open up a new photo page for you. This action has been known to "reenable" iWeb's functioning.
Here's a page put up by Kabing on this topic...

NIS client lookup for NIS master server problem

Dear All,
I have solaris OS 10 installed on NIS master and slave server and also client. Sometimes, my client cannot work properly. Although it is configured to lookup for NIS master as the server, it lookup for slave server instead occasionally. It will be alright after reboot. Please advise.
Any help is much appreciated.
best regards
vlsi

I'm not sure why you would want the client to not bind to the slave and only to the master. That's the whole point of having slave servers.
Just rerun ypinit -c on the client if you want to change which server the client binds to.
If your slave server is not working right, fix it.

RE: Native Forte Clients with Express Services

I would be very interested in hearing from anyone using Express who may
have attempted using Native Forte Clients with Express Services, especially
what problems/issues (if any) you encountered and whether you found it to
be a successful way to develop complex screens where the 'look and feel'
can't be achieved with Express alone.I wrote a general-purpose windows framework which uses Express Services for its
database access. Had I known what I was letting myself in for, I probably
wouldn't have attempted it! I started it when Express V1 was fairly new, and
Express Windows did not support the types and complexity of relationships
required by the application we were developing. I soon discovered how
difficult it is to implement a completely general framework which handles every
possible permutation. Obviously I ended up making compromises, but what we
have now meets our needs very well. We are about to upgrade to Express V2, so
the real test will be whether the framework migrates smoothly to the new
release.
If I were starting a new project now with Express V2, I don't know if I would
go down the same path. If you do, be aware of the following (based on my
experience of Express V1):
* Your design MUST obey the fundamental rules of Express Services. Your
BusinessQueries must be fired off by the correct BusinessClient subclass,
your BusinessClass attributes must be logged at the right time (depending
on which concurrency scheme you are using), and you must start and end
Express transactions (different to Forte transactions) appropriately.
* Your design needs to take into account the difference in the way Express
Services handles aggregate and non-aggregate associations.
* If you manage parent-child class relationships from your windows, you must
make sure you set and log foreign key attributes at the right time. If
the relationship is not aggregation, you must also manage the order in
which the records are saved to the database (if you use referential
integrity constraints).
* If you call Express Services directly from the windows, it is hard to
reconcile the asynchronous nature of a windows interface with the
database's requirement for things to happen in a certain order. (From
memory, there was a very good discussion in this user group last year of
what should constitute a unit of work in the windows paradigm.) If I
were doing it again, I would move all the Express-related objects and
method calls from the windows to a separate layer, which would manage
putting together the data from multiple windows, assigning foreign keys
and firing things off in the right order.

At our site we are using Windows NT 4.0 clients and a Windows NT

Periodically, we use the Forte StopWatch class to measure durations for
access to data. We've noticed
a strange phenomenon, and we're not sure if it's simply circumstance or if
there's a problem. All of the
measured durations that we receive through the Split method appear to
contain either a 0 or a 9 in the
tenth-of-a-second position. For example, values of 1011 and 1912. Has
anybody noticed this?

How to connect Lync 2013 client with OCS 2007 R2 Edge server

Hi,
We have OCS 2007 R2 Edge server for external & OCS 2007 R2 FE Server for internal access in our environment.
We able to access internally Lync2013 clients with OCS 2007R2 server, however from external we cannot access Lync2013 client with OCS2007 R2 server.
Is there any patch or registry key trick to access OCS from lync2013 client externally? We cannot immediately migrate to Lync2013 server from OCS.
Any help
MD

Hi,
I suggest you still use OCS 2007 R2 client to login OCS 2007 R2 Server untill finishing migration to Lync Server 2013, as using Lync client with OCS 2007 R2 Server will offer a pretty limited experience.
Here is a great blog about Lync 2010 Client unsupported with OCS, it is for Lync 2010 client but similar for Lync 2013 client:

Office 2013, click icon nothing happens, no errors, no eventlog, MANY clients with this issue

We're an IT solutions provider for companies of all sizes as well, as residential users, and we've been plagued by a new Microsoft-caused issue that's seriously affecting our client's perception of us since it seems like 'you didn't fix it the first
time' or 'you sold us the computer', so it's our responsibility to fix for free.
We've experienced this with 17 people so far, ranging from residential clients with systems that have come from big box stores and from systems we've sold with Microsoft Office 2013 and basically the entire suite stops working.
If you click an icon, you may see an hour glass for a few seconds and nothing happens (but usually nothing happens at all, as though you didn't click it).
Diagnostic steps:
No errors in eventlog, neither under system or application.
No third party add-ins, sometimes it's a stock install on a new / fresh system.
Starting Microsoft Office applications in safe mode, like winword /safe, has no effect.
A quick repair or an online repair will not resolve the issue, it will say it's done but issue still exists.
Microsoft Office 2013 cannot be uninstalled, we always receive the same error code: 0-4
Some systems do not have third party antivirus, some are simply using Microsoft Security Essentials.
This affects all Microsoft Office applications, including Outlook.
Makes no difference if you use another user account or run-as admin.
All Microsoft Office 2013 updates have been installed.
The installation source is undetermined but recent issues stemmed from a physical media (.ISO) install from Microsoft's latest source.
You cannot start the software by clicking on documents created with Office applications.
The only way to remove Microsoft Office 2013 is with the removal tool "O15CTRRemove.diagcab".
The problem returns after a random period of days and no client can relay the actual cause of the issue, it seems random in nature. After the issue is experienced, we go through the same steps including the necessity to utilize the removal tool.
This seems to be a new issue that's come out of the blue within the past few weeks, at least on our end. When 17 random people call out of the blue with the same problem, it suggests it's Windows Update related.
I'm really hoping someone has some insight into this Microsoft glitch and knows of a secret hotfix or special trick to prevent it. I attempted to call Microsoft and it would be more enjoyable to punch a concrete wall since you're dealing with useless people
in a foreign country who can't really comprehend the seriousness or technicality of the issue, and don't really care, and aren't skilled enough to provide
insight.
Does anyone know about this problem?

Thank you for the reply.
I understand the flash you are receiving while launching Excel or Word is very fast. However just wanted to check if it is possible to get a screenshot of it.
Also, are you able to work fine on Excel or Word even after receiving the flash.
It seems the Office installation might have not been done properly.
There is a possibility, everytime you Uninstall any application, there are still some patches left behind which could cause an issue while Installing the same application again or even after Installation is successful, it sometimes gives
issue while launching the application.
If you want to give a try, you may try to Uninstall the product using Offscrub by clicking on the below link & then can have a fresh installation again.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501
Please let me know the status update once done
Abhijeet, the box flash happens too fast for me to capture a screenshot of it but I believe it's similar to the smaller box activation process (enter your email).
Word and Excel work fine whenever this is observed.
I'm skeptical that this is a "not done properly" kind of scenario, especially when it applies to so many people and many have brand new computers. How can you take a Microsoft Office disc and install it improperly on a new PC? Or how can a person
go through Microsoft's https://officesetup.getmicrosoftkey.com/ setup, use the software for months and suddenly it stops working? If this is a 'not done properly' scenario, then this is a failing of Microsoft's
installation source. I can't reiterate this enough, the software works fine for people since installation date and then randomly stops working at a much later date (but many of them failed last month and this is a newer issue).
I'm starting to get frustrated again as I'd already stated we've used your linked removal tool in my first post and the problem has returned for another user by which I'd used it and reinstalled the product. The client who's PC we have now, one we'd sold
them, needs to be returned to them and while Microsoft Office is currently working, I was told that if this happens again, they're "going to throw the f#(*@ computer in the river". No joke.
If we're at the point where we've moved past evaluating logs, registry keys, or file versions or anything along the lines of a developer determining how this Microsoft bug occurs, then I'll return the system back to the client and hope for the best.
Three strikes and I'm out with this one but perhaps the delayed startup is the final solution... I just wish I knew for sure as we've had a bad year taking a beating for Microsoft's products and their support is the worst in the industry.
It's further frustrating that since I'd touched base with Microsoft via phone calls, the only person who's been able to provide any insight into the issue is me.

ASA , Cisco VPN client with RADIUS authentication

Hi,
I have configured ASA for Cisco VPN client with RADIUS authentication using Windows 2003 IAS.
All seems to be working I get connected and authenticated. However even I use user name and password from Active Directory when connecting with Cisco VPN client I still have to provide these credentials once again when accessing domain resources.
Should it work like this? Would it be possible to configure ASA/IAS/VPN client in such a way so I enter user name/password just once when connecting and getting access to domain resources straight away?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Alex

Hi Alex,
It is working as it should.
You can enable the vpn client to start vpn before logon. That way you login to vpn and then logon to the domain. However, you are still entering credentials twice ( vpn and domain) but you have access to domain resources and profiles.
thanks
John
