10.5.6 windows cannot create server based profiles

Hi @ all,
at time i plan to migrate my 10.4.11 tiger to 10.5.6 leopard, this fileserver stores the user home and profiles for 40 Windows Users.
I installed a new server with leopard 10.5.6 and tested the server if the user who are loggin into my OD gets his porfile and home from this server.
Yes right, it won't work.
Following is the setup
Windows XP sp2 joined in the domain MYDOMAIN and gets his profile and home from filesrv1 (this setup works)
filesrv3 with AFP/NFS/SMB
smb standalone, identifiedy by NTLMv2 & Kerberos/NTLM/LAN-Manager, Latin 1(850), Use wins sever xxx.yyy.zzz.
sharing a folder /Volumes/System/Users as Users with SMB guest access allowed and owner rights read&write
sharing a folder /Volumes/System/Users/Profiles as Profiles wit SMB guest access allowed, strict locking, owner rights read&write
Now setting in the WGM the home directory and the windows Profile to filesrv3 following appears
By Logging in in Windows, windows says cannot load profile check you directory ... bla bla...
The logs on my server says the following

In the profile folder the directory for this user is created but nothing more.
The Home is mapped to V: after login but no profile is created or loaded.
It seems the the samba cannot speack correctly with the LDAP.
anyone knows somthing about this?

This doesnt work for me either, I ended up setting the profile path to C:\Documents and Settings\shortname which is OK for me but I only have a few users and a handful of PC's.
This results in proper authentication using OD, and a roaming profile that exists on the local XP computer. I map H: to my home directory and store everything there and I am done.
When Roaming Profiles work properly Id like to implement them. But even then, because Id like to implement 'group policies' I need more and it seems hard to avoid a Windows server for profiles and policy management. I would prefer not to have any Windows admin machines.

Windows 7 Desktop synchronisation - Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop

Hi there
My client has a laptop which won’t load the desktop when disconnected from the network. When you log on (while disconnected) you get the error
“Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop”
Works as expected while connected to the network.
The server is a Windows Small Business Server 2003 with active directory etc. and roaming profiles turned on. This issue does not occur on other workstations/laptops.
When I check the Users folder on the local system drive there is not a desktop folder. I assume this is the issue although I’m not sure how you would force windows to create one or why one hasn’t been created?
This is a brand new laptop so my initial reaction was to reset the laptop to factory state and then add the laptop back in to the domain. After this process the issue was still present!
I guess the only thing I should mention is that this was shipped as a Home Premium laptop and was then upgraded to Professional using an upgrade key.
I have checked Control Panel, System & Security, System, Advanced, User Profiles and the account shows as Local with Roaming Profiles greyed out.
Any ideas?

Creating server based folder on mac/me IMAP- Problem!!!

I'm having a problem creating an IMAP server based folder to sync with my iphone.
I can create one for my personal domain email account, which, when sync via itunes appears in my mail app on the iphone.
But when I try to create one for my .mac/.me account, it does not appear in my Mail app on my computer, let alone on my iphone.
I click the '+' at the bottom of the left hand pane, click 'new mailbox' and then using location 'mac', with the nice picture of the cloud, enter the name I'd like it to have.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, or do I have a bug?
Thanks

My firefox is running in the background, unvisible. It will not allow me to uninstall/ reinstall because it says it is running. I cannot create a new profile because it says that firefox is running? How do I fix this??

I have tried restarting my computer, tried uninstalling, tried reinstalling but it always tells me that Firefox is open and running. When I select the task manager, there is no "firefox" under process. I have tried checking to make sure that the "read only" box is not checked under the profile properties. it seems like my only option now is to create a new profile. However, the profile manager won't even come up because it says firefox is running in the background. So frustrating!

Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
You can force Firefox to create a new default profile if you remove the profiles.ini file.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file
You can find that file here:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\
The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.

Satellite MX35X: Atheros Client Utility cannot create or modify profiles

Atheros Client Ultility is all greyed out. Won't let me create or modify profiles. Under the Profile Management tab, eveyrthing is greyed out. Any ideas?
I'm trying to set up a wireless connection for my Satellite MX35x and have just switched isp's to AOL if that helps. I've tried updating the drivers and have also reinstalled the Client Utility from the recovery disc.
I'm stuck!

Hi Graeme
I dont use the Atheros Client Utility and I dont know exactly how it works but a similar issue happened on my notebook with different WLan connection tools.
I think all the options in the Atheros utility are grayed out because the WLan connection configuration will be done by Windows OS.
Therefore you should firstly check if the option Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings in the Wireless network connection properties was disabled. If not do it!

Firefox does not start in MacOS in 10.6.7. For some reason I cannot create a new profile as recommended (error message Error: Platform version '1.9.2.16' is not compatible with minVersion = 1.9.2.17 maxVersion = 1.9.2.17) further help only for windows

tried to create new profile using Terminal but error message. cannot open in safe mode, instructions are only for windows All my bookmarks are in firefox

I had already tried a reinstall before, but thanks for the suggestion. Starting FF in Safe mode did not help either.
XULRunner is specific to FF. Mostly found discussion about using the code in web pages when I used Google before posting.
When FF went from version 3.6.14 to version 3.6.15 this issue started. Please note the Error message and the version info I just mentioned.
'''"Platform version '1.9.2.15' is not compatible with minVersion > =1.9.2.14 maxVersion < = 1.9.2.14"'''
'''The Platform was revved up from 1.9.2.14 to1.9.2.15'''
I could not find information on: minVersion or maxVersion much less how to change them in XULRunner.
'''''It is definitely a Mozilla FF issue'''''.
Avast sandbox is up to date and works just fine with everything else. More importantly it worked just before the update was installed.
The only reason I bothered with the update is because Mozilla touted it as a security issue and there was NO mention of any known issues with sandbox software.

Acrobat 9.0 for Window - Cannot create PDF Printer

I can't create a printer as non of the drivers in "C:\program Files\adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF" work. Re-installing does not work either. I tried installing older verions 7 & 8, both created Adobe PDF Printer... when installing version 9 it deletes the printer.
The message I get is: PDFMaker cannot locate the Adobe PDF Printer's printer driver. Please re-insall Adobe Acrobat 9.0
Anyone have any idea how to resolve this?

Do as I do on some items. Install a utility called TypeIt4Me the go to the announcement. Copy the link. choose add clipping give it a name put / or \ at the end so it you type the same words normally it don't trigger the typeIt4Me entry. then when you need to type the words (code used) and wait for TypeIt4Me enter it. the item highlighted in my attachment is this:

Cannot creat Invoice based on Delivery

G'day folks,
I have never seen this error before, but I have a Delivery that was copied to (or from) a Sales Order for the remaining balance of items on the Sales Order. When trying to copy this seemingly correct Delivery to an Invoice, I receive the following error:
This document cannot be added because the base document row was updated. Copy the document again from its base document.
To my knowledge, no modifications were made to the Sales Order or any of the two subsequent Deliveries so hopefully someone else has encountered and solved this issue in the past.
Thank you all for your time.
Best regards,

CAnnot Access server based user files

Hi
I have several IMacs running 10.5.6 connected to an Xserver.
Until recently we synced the users home folders, but they have become too large. There fore we plan to store the large files that were being synched locally. To do this I have switched off syncing, however when the user goes to the home folder it is the local /users folder and not the networked one setup in WGM. Is there a way to point the home icon to the networked folder?

this adds several steps to the process

Cannot create a new profile on my 5800 after facto...

Hi
I did a search and find nothing related.
I reseted my 5800 to factory settings, after that I'm not able to create new profiles. I googled this and found that others have had the same issue but I didn't find a fix.
When I go to create new profile the phone does nothing, after this I cannot even change the current profile until I exit profiles and enter again. Try to create new profile again and can't do it. If I keep trying the phone freezes
Can you please help me? Is there a fix for this or I won't be able to create new profiles? What went wrong with the resetting to factory settings?
Thanks for your help

make a back up if you dont already have one, read those carefully and go down the list. the second option should sort it, and what profiles are you talking about? connectivity or user profile for phone, text, email stuff?
1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345
2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)
3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
hard reset - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. )
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

Windows cannot load the user's profile but has logged you on with the default profile for the system.

My Windows 7 crashed a couple days ago after a windows update, I got this message.
Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
I restarted the machine and got this message

The EventSystem sub system is suppressing duplicate event log entries for a duration of 86400 seconds. The suppression timeout can be controlled by a REG_DWORD value named SuppressDuplicateDuration under the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EventSystem\EventLog.

hi do the following
1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
2. If prompted click yes,
3. expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
something similair)
5. right click the sid and press delete.
6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

Server-based output

I've been working on a help system but have not published it
yet. In my RH experience I haven't dealt with system issues. Now my
current project needs to be published, and I'm afraid my version of
RH is insufficient. It's Robohelp HTML X5, and it apparently does
not create server-based help. Is that correct? (This will be much
easier if I'm wrong.) The software being documented is .NET-based,
so it appears I need Robohelp Pro for .NET. I spoke with Adobe and
there is NO migration path from Robohelp HTML X5 to Robohelp Pro
for .NET. Meaning I have to spend the full $2000 for it. This in
turn creates a problem for me persuading the development group
about this.
So, is there any way for Robohelp HTML X5 to create
server-based help? Can anyone suggest a migration path from what I
have that does not cost $2000?

Chris
It is entirely wrong to think that RH HTML X5 does not
produce server based help. It is the webhelp output and on my site
you will see many links to RH demos which are running on the same
server as my site. Professionally most of the help I produce is
webhelp running on servers.
.NET is a different issue but I believe webhelp will run
there but there may be extra features the .NET version gives.
However, if you don't need them...
I am sure some with .NET knowledge will come in on that.

Cannot load the roaming profile in MAC OS X Leopard (10.5.4)

Hi
i am using leopard 10.5.4.my users have a default windows profile path at /Server HD/Users/Profiles/username.when i login from windows clients some users cannot load the profile.the following error is displayed in windows clients
windows cannot load your roaming profile.
please help me to resolve this issue
regs
S.Mohan

Roaming profiles via Mac OSX Server are different from Roaming Profiles via Windows Server.
Some things you must do, to keep the profiles syncing... First understanding that an database (db) files will create issues. Windows does not do a good job of releasing / unlocking the files. This will show up in Thumbs.db and newly created Favorites located within the profile.
1. Disable thumbnail caching on the windows clients.
2. Disable web client services (optional).
3. Move any db,s (like ACT 2008) out of the profile.
3. Move Favorites out to the profile (we use teakUI to relocate it to c://)
On boot, the error that a roaming profile can't load, will also present (about 20 seconds) the path of the bad file.
Hope this helps.
