Accessing Files/Registry on another Windows server

Hi there,
I'm kind of new to Java. I would like to write a
program that can read a text file (or registry entry)
located on another Windows server. What is the best
way to do this, eg. what java classes would I need?
When reading text files, I would like to use the
syntax, eg. \\[machine name]\c$\textfile.txt. Is
this possible?
thanks,
PiAny directory path which you can access from the OS can be accessed in Java, so if \\[machine name]... is accessible, yes. However, that speaks nothing of the design of your app, which may be on the 'wonky' side.

Can't open office files located on a windows server fileshare

Hi TechNet / Office for Mac Community,
re: can't open MS Office files located on a windows server file share
Is anyone else experiencing this issue and/or have a fix?
Details:
Clients: Mac OS X 10.6 / 10.7 / 10.8 / 10.9
File share: Windows Server 2008 R2
Connecting via SMB or CIFS
Problem:
When mounting the Windows Server file share, Mac clients are unable to open MS Office 2011 files (not just powerpoint) from that location.
Error message: "there was an error accessing /Volumes/data/folder/presentation.pptx"
There is no issue creating or deleting MS Office files from that location.
The Mac 'Preview' application is able to open the same MS Office file without issues.
The file is not corrupted and can be opened when copied to the desktop.
Windows clients have no problem opening the file.
Only this particular file share is having an issue.
Are there any known issues or requirements for Windows Server file shares and MS Office 2011 that would apply to this problem?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Domain Users To be Given IPads thats will File Sync to a Windows Server in the Company DMZ. Are CALS needed for the ipads ?

Hi Guys.
We are thinking on giving some Sales Staff some IPADs to use. All these staff currently have USER CALS.
We are going to be using some software called MobileEcho to allow for browsing and File Syncing from a Windows Server in a DMZ. This Server itself maybe doing some LDAP queries to the LAN. Also some users maybe putting new content onto this Server
from the LAN. Are any seperate Device CALS needed for this Server ?
thanks

if the user is assigned a User CAL, no device CAL is needed.
That's the main reason why you would buy User CALs, where there is more than 1 device for each user (or more devices than users, in general)

Mac Pro accessing SMB shares on a windows server. After being left on all night, the MP gets "file unavailable" messages when opening files on the share.

Windows Server 2003 accessed by several PCs and Macs without previous incident. This one Mac Pro after it's been left on all night (running jobs, or just left idle), and a user tries to reconnect to an SMB share, can go to Finder, Go, Connect to Server, enter the Server info as normal, login as normal, view the directories and files as normal, but as soon as they try to open anything they are given one of the following messages:
"Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters (for example, \ /). (<filename>)" - when opening a word document
"<filename> could not be found. Check the spelling of the file name and verify that the file location is correct. If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files on the File menu, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted." - when opening an excel spreadsheet
Note that these messages are popping up AFTER the user has double-clicked on them to open them. So the files are certainly there and correctly named (and contain only letters, numbers and underscores). After restarting the Mac Pro, the error messages are gone and the files can be accessed without problem. Would like it so that they can connect to the server without having to restart every day.

A trouble free way of giving Administrators access to redirected folders on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard?

A few months ago I set up some redirected folders on a clients Windows Small Busines Server 2008. I recall that setting up the redirected folders was straightforward, but when I edited the permissions to allow administrative access to these server located
folders, all hell broke lose. The permissions change seemed to trash the folders. I think I managed to 'bodge' it for a couple of users and got it working, but it was such a headache I didn't bother doing it for the other users.
Now, I sit in front of a brand-spanking-new Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard box which is going to be installed with a new client within 48 hours. I would like to set up redirected folders and would like to grant admin rights on these folders so I can view
their contents directly from the server.
It seems to me that there is no offical Microsoft documentation which relates specifically to doing this on Windows Server 2008. Given the amount of problems this has caused for many admins, I am astounded.
Somewhere there are articles which describe how to do it on 2003, but this procedure does not work well in 2008.
There is an SBS article that admits permissions can be trashed, but this is no help on Standard edition:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2010/10/08/folder-redirection-in-small-business-server-2008.aspx
I have just posted a note on this rather long article:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-GB/smallbusinessserver/thread/70fa7f0e-7f2c-4f00-8401-42d262d80cd6
So, my question, hopefully to Microsoft employee, please can you document
exactly how to grant admin rights to users redirected folders on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard, and please could you do it today :-)
In the absence of this help, then I'm afraid this is yet another great but badly implemented feature that we will not be using.

So, Micro$haft, Why did you give instructions to Server 2003?

Web Access for Remote Desktop on Windows Server 2012

Hello,
i've a Windows Server 2012 without a domain. So i installed the remote desktop session host, the remote desktop license server and the remote desktop gateway as a server role only. All is working fine. Without a domain, no management tools for remote
desktop are available. So i configure the remote desktop via the registry. I define (via registry) some remoteapps, too. All values are copied from a running Windows Server 2008 R2. So the remoteapps are runing.
Now i want to use the new Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Android. To use a remoteapp i must define a remote resource. To define a remote resource i need a url to the web access for remote desktop. So i installed the web access. But if i login to the
web access, i don't see any remoteapp. What's wrong? I've set the ShowInTSWA to 1. What must i do to access an existing remoteapp via web access?
Martin

Hi Martin,
Server 2012 RD Web Access is designed to retrieve published RemoteApps and Desktops from a Server 2012 RD Connection Broker and/or a Server 2008 R2 RD Session Host server. From your description it doesn't appear that you are using either of the above.
I know it is a more complicated set up, but you should consider having a domain, creating a RDS deployment, etc., so that you can use the full featureset as it was intended. You can do it all on a single server if needed. For Server 2012
there is a hotfix that needs to be applied to permit RD Connection Broker to work on the same server instance as active directory.

Not seeing all the files on a shared Windows server??

I'm using a Windows Server 2003 to share files between Macintosh an Windows users. But sometimes the Mac users (10.4) don't see all the files (in the same folder) that the Windows users do! I've checked on the server and I don't see any (obvious) permission problem ... So why aren't all the files displayed???
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Jerome

Hello Herr Jerome, I have the same problem, here in our company. We have around 70 employees connected to a windows server network. There are 68 PCs and 2 macs, one of which is mine. We have a special directory on the server called macdata, but other users place their files in their own respective directories, to which we normally have access.
Since yesterday, if anyone else places files from PC on to the server for me, I cant see them. I can see all other files but not the ones copied since yesterday.Our support guys have tried pretty much everything including resetting permissions, to no avial. finally they received an error message: Caution older mac systems will have problems reading more than 65000 (plus a few files). But there are in advance of 100 000 files on our server, but the extra 35 000 wernt put on there just yesterday.I´m running Macosx 10.4.11 which is by no means an old system.
I´ve spent the day hunting the Internet for a solution, but Info on this subject seem to be scarce! I mean this is a very big problem in a business environment, our IS dept has been trying to scrap the macs for years and I´ve been working here on a mac and fighting for 15 years. So now our IS has at last a valid reason for switching us to PCs.
I don´t understand Apple not publishing these limitions in a prominent spot on their website, not to mention a solution because it´s a crucial limitation, people should know about. Apple truely is not interested in corporate, nor in its truly loyal champions bravely fighting aganst the PC onslaught

File systems available on Windows Server 2012 R2?

What are the supported file systems in Windows Server 2012 R2? I mean the complete list. I know you can create, read and write on Fat32, NTFS and ReFS. What about non-Microsoft file systems, like EXT4 or HFS+? If I create a VM with a Linux OS, will
I be able to acces the virtual hard disk natively from WS 2012 R2, or will I need a third party tool, like the one from Paragon? If I have a drive formated in EXT4 or HFS+, will I be able to acces it from Windows, without any third party tool? Acces it,
I mean both read and write on them. I know that on the client OS, Windows 8.1, this is not possible natively, this is why I am asking here, I guess it is very possible for the server OS to have build-in support for accesing thoose file systems. If Hyper-V
has been optimised to run not just Windows VMs, but also Linux VMs, it would make sense to me that file systems like thoose from Linux or OS X to be available using a build-in feature. I have tried to mount the vhd from a Linux VM I have created in HyperV,
Windows Explorer could not read the hard drive.

Installed Paragon ExtFS free. With it loaded, tried to mount on Windows Explorer a ext4 formated vhd, created on a Linux Hyper-V vm, it failed, and Paragon ExtFS crashed. Uninstalled Paragon ExtFS. The free version was not supported on WS 2012 R2
by Paragon, if Windows has no build-in support for ext4, this means this free software has not messed around anything in the OS, I guess.
Don't mess with third-party kernel-mode file systems as it's basically begging for troubles: crash inside them will make whole system BSOD and third-party FS are typically buggy... Because a) FS development for Windows is VERY complex and b) there are very
few external adopters so not that many people actually theist them. What you can do however:
1) Spawn an OS with a supported FS inside VM and configure loopback connectivity (even over SMB) with your host. So you'll read and write your volume inside a VM and copy content to / from host.
(I personally use this approach in a reversed direction, my primary OS is MacOS X but I read/write NTFS-formatted disks from inside a Windows 7 VM I run on VMware Fusion)
2) Use user-mode file system explorer (see sample links below, I'm NOT affiliated with that companie). So you'll copy content from the volume as it would be some sort of a shell extension.
Crashes in 1) and 2) would not touch your whole OS stability.

Programmatic webdav/unc access requires user logon to windows server 2008 R2

I have an automated process (a .net windows service) that connects to sharepoint document library via a UNC (\\mysharepointsite\doclib). When the machine is rebooted,
accessing this folder results in a System.IO.IOException: The network name cannot be found exception.
However, if we log into the windows server 2008 r2 machine under the account that the service is running on, it starts working, and continues to work even when we log out. It continues to work until we reboot the computer.
I've already run into and solved other user-centric fixes for 2008. For example, the "Desktop Experience" feature is required to browse the path and all, and unchecking "automatically detect settings" significantly speeds up browsing of these paths.
However, I'm not sure what user logon initializes that would be fixing this problem.

I can further simplify this. The following command will fail initially:
dir \\myspserver\mypath
However, running the same command after browsing to the same path in windows explorer succeeds. At this point I've eliminated the programming as an issue so i will try to post a similar question on technet. However, please let me know if anybody
has any further info.

Hello Ingo
Thanks to read my problem and for your reply, I have already read that SAP Note 1032461, I have the same problem as clearly defined in the note, and suggesting to put LIBRFC32.DLL file in <windows-dir>/system32 folder.
My SAP ECC and BI7 (Kernl 7.00) is installed on 64-bit, x64 Windows Server 2003 Enterprise. I need to download that file from RFC library available on SAP Market place. But, I don't have any super user rights.
If someone has similar setup and has already that file or could download for me. I need to get that file. I appreciated your kindly help.
thanks

Deleting ._ files appearing on a windows server

In trying to create and then delete some folders on a windows server running server 2003, various ._ files appear. Because the original files were deleted first, I am unable to delete the files on the windows server. I need them deleted. How do I accomplish the task?

Hi Lynette!
You apparently have Macs using a combination of AFP (using the Windows Server's File Services for Macintosh) and SMB (using the Windows Server's Windows file sharing) connecting to your server.
The Network Trash folders are part of the File Services for Macintosh and are in use by the Windows system. You shouldn't delete these yourself unless you know you've disabled File Services for Macintosh.
And while they can be annoying to Windows users, the "._filename" files are useful to your Mac OS X machines connecting to the server using its Windows file sharing. Do you have a specific reason you want to delete these files? If you don't have hidden files showing then how to do you see them and why do you want to delete them?

But if the files saved on the Server it doesn’t work.
The “open” dialog will go to the Desktop. Any Idea how
