10.7.4 client and 10.6.8 server MCX issues

Hello
I am testing a 10.7.4 client bound to AD/10.6.8 OD server (magic triangle) setup.
Everything server side is fine for 10.6.x clients whereas I am experiencing some issues with my test 10.7.4 client.
I have defined several network volumes to be mounted at login (MCX - OD computer group level) but - unlike 10.6.8 clients - the 10.7.4 tries to mount volumes even when it's offline (no network) and therefore it says the volumes are not available (error window).
If I bind the same client to a test 10.7.4 OD server, everything is fine, the same volumes are being ignored when offline.
Is there a reason/fix for such behavior?
Many thanks for your help
Ciao

Check the client and server log files for any relevent errors (Applications > Utilities > Console.app), and also confirm that DNS services are correct on both the server and the clients.
To verify DNS on the server, launch Applications > Utilities > Terminal.app and issue the (non-destructive) command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
to confirm that the server's DNS settings are correct.

  • Oracle 8i Windows Client and 9i Unix Database server

    Is it recommended to use Oracle Windows 8i client against Oracle 9i Database server?
    Does anyone have an official Oracle link about this?
    Thanks
    Dipak

    Only by putting an Oracle 8 database between them... You can set up an Oracle 8 database with a dblink to the Oracle 7 database and connect to that via an Oracle 9 client. Not pretty and not particularly efficient, but it'll work in a pinch.

  • Chat between j2me clients and using a Servlet server

    Java gurus, please help me..
    I'm wondering if I could set up a sort of chat functionality between two j2me clients. I wish to use Java servlets as my server and Tomcat to deploy it. Is this possible? Can i do these by using http connection only or do i have to use sockets? If i use sockets, how will i configure Tomcat, or do i still need Tomcat?
    Hope someone could help! Thanks in advance! =)

    Basically it means you should have a Thread that loops and make an http request every x seconds. Before sending the request it should check if the user has typed anything, and send that with the request. The server should keep track of all the chat messages sent, and forward to all the other clients when they request an update. To keep track of what clients have received what messages, you could have a time stamp for each message, and a "last update" field for each client.
    The client should run something like this in a thread:
    while (iAmRunning) {
      url = "......." // address of your server
      if (the user typed anything since the last time we sent a request) {
        url = url + "?msg=" + whatTheUserTyped; // maybe another parameter for private messages?
        reset what the user typed (so it won't be sent next time);
      send the request;
      get the response containing what the rest of the users have
        typed since my last update;
      update the display with the latest messages;
    }And the server would handle a request like:
    if (the request contains a message) {
      save the message with the current time;
    check when was the previous update for this user;
    get all messages where the timestamp is later than the last update;
    set the last update field for the user with to the current time;
    respond with all the messages;

  • Integration Mac Client and a Windows Print Server

    I want to know if it is possible to install a Mac Printer in a Windows Print Server so that later Users could connect to the WIndows Print Server and install their Mac Printer on their Mac Clients.

    I think he means the Windows server will host the printer queue and he want to add the Mac drivers to the server so that when the Mac connects to the queue the driver is downloaded automatically. This is known as Point and Print on Windows and AFAIK this is only available for Windows clients.
    When you go to the Sharing tab on a Windows server to add drivers for an alternate Windows OS to that of the server (if needed) or alternate platforms (such as x64), there is no provision to add a Mac driver.
    Another point is that the Mac drivers are usually in a format not supported by Windows, such as DMG. The Windows drivers are copied to a repository in system32 for download to the client computers and the files are typically already unpacked (installed) on the server. The drivers would not be capable of being saved in the same format.
    So I believe that by default, Windows has no ability to host the Mac driver. He would have to rely on a 3rd party product to perform such a task...

  • SharePoint 2013 Anonymous (public) site and Office Web Apps Server 2013 issue with download.aspx

    Our organization has a public facing anonymous site in SharePoint 2013 which allows access to documents (docx) in a library.  ViewFormsLockdown is activated as we present the documents via CQWP / custom template.  We are combating the usual
    issue of multiple login prompts when using Internet Explorer when a user accesses said document.  We also have tried  using the Word Viewer (view only mode) from Office Web Apps Server 2013 which works well, but ...
    the problem stems from the fact that users can go the file menu from the word view and choose to download the document (which is what we want),  unfortunately it looks like the link redirects via /_layouts/15/download.aspx which also presents a login
    prompt. Much has been written out there about doing direct links for documents via /_layouts/download.aspx to address multiple login prompts when the document is opening in word (from IE).
    I've tried nearly every combination of recommendations (disabling client integration, browser file handling (permissive/strict), ViewFormsLockdown feature, web.config modifications with options and propfind verbs and more) all to varying levels of success,
    but never totally getting rid of the prompt.  It has been stated that because the downloads.aspx inherits from Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.Download this will not allow anonymous access.  We really want to use the word view from the Office
    web app and have the file download functionality work from the menu there ... can anyone suggest an alternate fix?  I might be wishing but will appreciate any guidance offered ...
    cheers,

  • Is there an example of a confirmation order email that is sent to the client and also an example of an invoice that is sent to the client?

    Can there be an FAQ created by which it gives information to the client on the order process.  Example:  Client make purchase over the phone:
    1.  Confirmation email sent to the client with the order number that Adobe Direct Sales or Customer Service has communicated to the client -->Example of the order confirmation email in the FAQ
    2.  Example of an official invoice that is sent to the client.

    I looked at the ActiveX Event Callback for Excel.vi and the subvi NewWorkbookCallback.vi in detail.
    I have a few questions/observations about it:
    1. The main program appears to open Excel so that LabVIEW is the ActiveX client and Excel is the ActiveX server. Is this correct?
    2. When the user opens a new Excel workbook, LabVIEW fills some cells. Again LabVIEW is the client and Excel is the server. Is this correct?
    I want to create a LabVIEW ActiveX server that receives and displays an array of booleans. Can anyone help me with this?

  • Fat Client and Thin Client

    Hello, everyone
    I am a newbie with websphere 5. I am wondering if anyone know fat clients(Swing GUI) work with websphere. I know thin clients(web-based interface) work with websphere. My scenario is like this and this is all experimental purposes:
    I want to program a Swing GUI interface as the client that accesses the enterprise javabeans that is installed on websphere. So the Swing GUI is the client and Websphere is the server, which makes it a 2-tier Application. My question is basically, does websphere only work with web-based application or does it work with both desktop application clients and web-based application clients also?
    Any Ideas?

    Thanks, that's the kinda of straight answer I am looking for. I have been researching for this answer to this question for a long time and even posted several similar questions on Java forum, but no one seemed to have a straight answer. What I was thinking of programming is:
    client/server program using websphere.
    Client:
    GUI interface using Swing that is just like a regular desktop application and not a web browser (I notice the most common application using websphere are web based applications like portals).
    Server:
    Using Websphere to accept connection when requested by the client and act as a bean container, which holds EJBs. The EJBs will connect to the database (mssql server) to pull data from.
    Does this sound OK and can this be done using Websphere? I am using Websphere 5.
    Thank you, I am just a newbie in j2ee, just trying to get started in this area of programming.

  • NFS problem between RedHat Client and Solaris Server

    Hi all, we are experiencing a problem between a RedHat client and a Solaris 10 server. For the purposes of this post, I'll call the Redhat client server A and the Solaris 10 server B.
    Server B is exporting a filesystem that server A is trying to mount. Server A can successfully mount the exported file system, however, strange things are happening. If I change to the exported mount point on server A and create a file, the file is owned by nobody:nobody, not the user that created the file.
    A look at the file on server B shows the file has the correct UID and GID (ie the UID & GID of server A).
    The fstab file on server A looks like this:
    serverB:/data /data nfs4 rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,nointr,rw,bg,actimeo=0,timeo=300,suid 0 0
    Does anyone have a explanation for this?
    NB: There is a firewall between server A and server B. A firewall rule is in place to allow traffic between the two servers on port 2049
    Stewart

    Hi
    If I change to the exported mount point on server A and create a file, the file is owned by nobody:nobody, not the user that created the file.On a NFS share, for security reasons, you normally dont have root provileges.
    A file createt as root user will be mapped to nobody:nobody.
    The behaviour you see is correct.
    If you want the file to be createt as root, you have to export the filesystem with -o ro,anon=0
    NFSv3 will be blocked by your firewall.

  • SCCM 2012 client push occurs from site server or from distribution point?

    I would like to set up client push in SCCM 2012 and I have a remote site with about 80 workstations that I would like to deploy the clients to using client push, but this remote site is VERY slow, as in less than 3Mbps slow. There is a remote DP located
    at this site and I wanted to know if the remote workstations will be hammering my Site Server across the WAN (or MP I guess since the MP role is i installed on the Site Server) to request the client installation, or do the clients just request the client from
    the Site Server or MP and then the client downloads to the remote DP and then the workstations install the SCCM 2012 client from the local DP at the remote site?
    I just do NOT want the WAN link to become overwhelmed with workstation requests to install the client and have the Site Server have to respond to each and every workstation and download the SCCM 2012 client to each system over this slow WAN link. 
    How does the client push process actually work?
    Thank you

    The initial files will come from the primary site server. The rest (the biggest part) will come of the distribution point. See for a good read (even though it's more about secondary sites), this post of Jason:

  • Adobe Creative Cloud - How To Share Files With Clients and Colleagues | Creative Suite Podcast: Designers | Adobe TV

    In this episode of the Adobe Creative Suite Podcast, Terry White shows how to share Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign Files with clients and colleagues and all they'll need is a browser to comment and see your Photoshop Layers.
    http://adobe.ly/10ZjpE4

    Terry,
    I guess I miss something. How can I share a folder of photos? When I return from a shoot, I select 20 of the pictures and need to share them with my client to pick up the favorites. Am I supposed to copy and past an URL for each image separately?
    Sometimes I also work with a colleague, I need to share my favorites with him. Same issue.
    We have tried Adobe Cloud, and then went for Dropbox. There we can share a folder and he can put even his pictures in it as well. That's what I call collaboration. And it is free (unlike Adobe Cloud). If you have some word in Adobe, please tell them to either drop it and make a deal with services like Dropbox, or make it properly.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot login to network account (leopard client and server)

    Up until now, I have used local accounts on my leopard server. I want to start experimenting with OD prior to implementing. I created a new user account in the /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 domain, and have bound my leopard client to the server using directory utility. On the login screen, "Network Accounts Available" has a green button to the left of it. When I try and login to the server account, the login window just shakes. At first, I could enter the password and then it would prompt me for a new password. Trying to enter a new password would not allow me to login. I went back to server admin and disabled the "require new password" setting, (as well as the other good security policies)...
    I have also reset the password in WGM, and made sure to disable all the security stuff there too...
    Lastly, I have deleted the server in directory utility, rebooted, then added it back in, and rebooted again...
    I still cannot login to the server account, the login screen just shakes
    Does anyone have an idea of what settings and or logs I can check to try and narrow down what is going on?
    Thanks in advance....

    to close out the thread, I have working dns on my network, but I did not have dns enabled on my server. I enabled the dns service and entered just the info for my server, then assigned my server and client to use the server's ip addy as the primary dns server. Next, I created the home directory.
    Once both steps were done, I was able to log in from my client to my server based account...
    FYI-I found a document on afp548.com called "leopard server: advanced setup, rsync backup and automated reporting" that walks you right thru the process...Here is the link, it's a very useful doc....

  • Async tcp client and server. How can I determine that the client or the server is no longer available?

    Hi,
    Have you debug these two applications? Does it go into the catch exception block when you close the client or the server?
    According to my test, it will throw an exception when the client or the server is closed, just log the exception message in the catch block and then you'll get it:
    private async void Process()
    try
    while (true)
    var data = await this.Receive();
    this.NewMessage.Invoke(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data));
    catch (Exception exception)
    Console.WriteLine(exception.Message);
    Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing   connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
    By the way, I don't know what the SafeInvoke method is, it may be an extension method, right? I used Invoke instead to test it.
