Accessing NetStorage via WebDAV from Windows 7

Until last week we were running Netware 6.5 SP8. I was aware that accessing NetStorage via WebDAV (using Microsoft Web Folders) does not work on Windows 7. Now I migrated the server to OES 11 SP2 and I decided to re-investigate the issue. Currently, I still can't access NetStorage from WebDAV on Windows 7. When I try to add new network location in Windows, enter the correct URL and I'm prompted for username and password. After entering the correct password, the username/password window re-appears. On entering the username and password second time, I get error message "The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another."
Is the situation still such that accessing NetStorage via Microsoft Web Folders on Windows 7 does not work, or do I have something misconfigured?
From web browser, there are no problems accessing NetStorage.

My limited understanding is that MS seriously mangled/changed WebDav in Windows 7 and if you google for webdav webfolders and windows 7 you'll find all sorts of differing things that may be needed for things to work.
I do know that you can download the free NetDrive client software somewhere and that should work on Win7 against NetStorage.
I vaguely recall there was something special you had to do with Web Folders on Windows 7 if you wanted to use WEBDAV against FILR, so perhaps those same steps are necessary against NetStorage.
Also, are you accessing NetStorage directly, or going through a reverse proxy such as NAM?

Access linux file system from windows and vice versa

Friends
Do anyone of you have any idea about how to access linux file system from windows using java. Thanx in advance.
Regards
Rakesh

"Accessing" is vague. Do you want to read? write? Both?
Here are two ways I'll mention.
1. Write an ftp client for the "cleint" computer. I beleive java has some framework functions for doing this.
2. Write java RMI client and server to open, read or write, and close a file. Pass a byte array parameter containing each block of data.

Access to Mac HD from Windows

Can I access files on the Mac OS partition from Windows via Bootcamp?
I would like to have all of my files in one location.

Hi folks - and a special nod of gratitude to Fortuny,
I didn't mean to "hi-jack" this thread, so my apologies to MtnMac2.
But to the point of info for all - I loaded the two utes suggested by Fortuny - and WOW! without a hitch nor hiccup, it worked beautifully. I can read/write to ALL of my BootCamp partition while booted in MacOS 10.5.6. Very slick.
I spent nearly a half an hour dragging all of the files from my VMware directory into the new BootCamp "My Documents" and further into sub-directories. I was able to rename files IN THAT PC directory, create folders, sub-folders, etc., all while booted in Leopard.
What I haven't done yet is see what the Mac side looks like while booted in XP-Pro - I suspect it will be the same trouble-free ease of use. In fact, I now know more about this than the local "Genius" at the bar at one of my neighborhood Apple Stores. (shocker...)
And the best part? These utilities are FREE. While I don't doubt the functionality of Hatter's suggestion (he's ALWAYS spot on!!) - this was the immediate path of least financial resistance.
Thanks again Fortuny - and I'll follow-up IF and only if I hit trouble from within XP-Pro - just to share the experience with this wonderful community of users and experts!
Peace,

Remote Access to TC Disk from Windows/PC. Do I need DynDNS. Using FTP

I need to be able to have anyone on the Internet be able to access my files on Time Capsule. I am using my Time Capsule as a router and do not have a static IP. My Internet Provider is comcast and modem is a Motorola Surfboard.
Here are my basic questions:
How can my Time Capsule be accessed remotely via PC/Windows? What protocol? How?
Can Time Capsule be set up do FTP? What port mapping do I set up for the personal and private UDP and TCP?
Since I do not have a static IP address, do I need to subscribe to a Custom DynDNS account?
Thank You

How can my Time Capsule be accessed remotely via PC/Windows? What protocol? How?
Windows or Linux PCs can access the Time Capsule's (TC) file service via the SMB protocol.
The following is the basic steps to configure the TC's hard drive to be accessed from the Internet.
Configuring the TC
AirPort Utility > Select the TC
o Note the value of the IP Address. This is the Public or WAN-side IP address of the TC. (Note: You will need to have either a static Public IP address, or use a free dynamic DNS service, like you suggested, in order to access the TC from the Internet.)
Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection
o Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address
Manual Setup > Disks > Files Sharing tab
o Enable file sharing (checked)
o Secure Shared Disks = With base station password
o AirPort Disks Guest Access = Not allowed
o Share disks over Ethernet WAN port (checked)
Manual Setup > AirPort > Base Station
o Enter a Base Station Password and verify it in the Verify Password box.
Manual Setup > Advanced > Port Mapping
o Click the plus sign "+" to add a new port mapping.
o In the Public UDP Port(s) and Public TCP Port(s) boxes, type in a 4-digit port number (e.g., 5688) that you choose.
o In the Private IP Address box, type the internal IP address of your TC that you noted earlier.
o In the Private UDP Port(s) and Private TCP Port(s) boxes, type 548, and then, click Continue.
o In the Description box, type a descriptive name like "Time Capsule File Sharing," and then, click Done.
o When you have made all the changes, click Update.
Connect the PC to the TC from a remote location
o Type in your DynDNS domain name, plus a colon and the port number you specified when configuring the TC earlier. For example,"www.myTC.com:5688"
o You will be prompted for your user name and password. The user name can be anything you like; the password would be the TC's Base Station password you defined earlier.

Time Capsule via Internet from Windows

Frnds,
I couldnt find solve for my problem. Could anyone help me, pls?
I have TC. It work as router. TC connect via Ethernet cable. I want to connect to it from anyplace of the world via internet and use files on it. I switched on Share files in Airport Utility. I have stat IP. All should be work. But it is not working. When i check ports(137-139, 455) then i see that ports is closed. When i try to mapping ports then i have warning message that they is using and to turn it on i need to switch off Share files.
I try to connect via FTP. I opened 21 port and it is realy open. But i still could not to connect.
One more thing - i could to connect to TC via afp:// from Macbook. But i need to connect from other places using Windows.
I NEED PROFESSIONAL HELP. All eligible information and screens im ready to provide. HELPDESK CONNECTED UP!!!
sry for my english

The TC does not offer FTP and ISP do not allow SMB connection via internet due to risk. Nor apparently does the TC allow wan connection using SMB.
So the simple answer is, you will have to figure out another way in.
http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/3178/how-to-connect-to-an-afp-server-fr om-a-windows-pc
There are no AFP client support for windows available.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2627410?start=0&tstart=0
Buy a vpn router and place it infront of the TC which should be bridged.. vpn to the network and then you can access the TC.. but you should understand the TC was not made to be used as a NAS nor to serve PC's.

Accessing Time Capsule disk from Windows 7

I have a Time Capsule 2TB which serves several Macs and a PC running Windows 7. I was able to access the disk from Windows 7 to share files. My PC suddenly stopped seeing the disk - although the Windows 7 machine can still access the web through the Time Capsule.
When I run the AirPort Utility through Windows 7 it is unable to find any Airport wireless devices. I can however see the Time Capsule and the disk when I 'Configure other...' and enter the IP address manually, but still cannot access it.
I am using Airport Utility version 6.2
I thought it might be an issue with the Time Capsule and bought a new one but encountered exactly the same problem.
I read that turning 'Search' off in Windows 7 might solve the problem. I tried doing that but still cannot find any AirPort wireless devices.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You should be using the airport utility from windows .. not 6.2 which is only a Mac version AFAIK.
Did your windows suddenly decide spontaneously that it is now in work or public network.. instead of home.. windows does this at random intervals to make life exciting for all users. Drag it home.. and make it sit there.
No go, then shut down all the firewalls.
If your problem coincided with the recent upgrade to 7.6.3 firmware.. which would not surprise me, downgrade to 7.6.1 or earier.

Cannot access Mac OS Partition from windows 8 running in boot camp

So I installed Windows 8.1 Pro through Boot Camp but I can't access the Mac OS partition from windows even though boot camp partition shows up while I'm on Mac OS. I have installed all the drivers from apple but still it didn't work. Then I downloaded Paragon HFS+ which was free for windows 8 and 8.1 thinking that this would solve my problem. The instructions told me to change the drive letter for mac partition from disk management by right clicking the drive pressing "change drive letter and path" button. But the "change drive letter and path" key in grey color and I can't press it. Can somebody please help?

No access on podcast share from Windows clients

Hello together!
I have the following scenatio at home:
* 1 Server with Windows 2008 R2 with logged in user and iTunes running (everything is shared)
* 1 Laptop with Windows 7 x64 & iTunes
* 1 Desktop with Windows 7 x86 & iTunes
* 1 Macbook with Mac OS X Leopard & iTunes
With this constellation I want to have access to my iTunes library located on the server from all other computer. With the MacBook this funktions without any problem to access everything (podcasts too).
On both Windows computer the directory pocasts is invisible. I can find the podcast files in the main directory but they are grey and the the playback does not start.
Is here anyone who had already the same problem and perhaps solved it? Thank you in advance for your replies.
P.S. Generally I can play the files by changing the kind of media to movie.

Oleg,
I had the exact same problem here - we have two XSERVE machines here running OSX 10.5.7 server, and we're accessing a samba share on these servers from Windows XP SP3 clients.
When moving a file, I noticed a message in /var/log/samba/log.smbd :
[2009/06/15 12:45:30, 0, pid=50709] /SourceCache/samba/samba-187.8/samba/source/modules/vfsdarwin_acls.c:fsp_setacl(126)
darwinacl: failed to set ACL on <filename>: Invalid argument
!#acl 1
I tried to look this up on google, but had no success.
Searching the file /etc/smb.conf for "acl" showed the following line:
vfs objects = darwinacl,darwin_streams
(Un)commenting this line (inserting a ";" in front of the first character) and restarting s,b solved the problem here - I'm now able to move files without having the permissions set to 0000, and the error in log.smbd doesn't appear any more.

Hp1022n printer doesn't working on windows 2008 R2 x64 via RDP from windows 7

Dear Sir,
i have a network of some windows7 and some server 2008 r2 Terminal Services, There is
a hp 1022n printer . when i print locally from windows7 , the
print comes very smoothly but no printing from windows Server 2008 R2 via RDP. i had installed driver for hp
1022n + (windows 7 x64) on server 2008 r2 but it still doesnt print.
note there are other printer installed (via TCP/IP ,hp jetdirect printing) and they working finely on
server 2008r2.
so give me a stable solution for printing on hp 1022n + printer via RDP server from windows 7

Hi Mahya,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Did you receive any particular error for your issue?
Please check the link provided by Hari, you can use RD Easy Print driver for server 2008 R2.In addition, if possible try using Universal print driver for your case.

Access time capsule remotely from windows 7 os. Please help!

I have enabled net/bios in the network prefs in windows but to no avail. It works fine from a vista os but I cannot seem to figure it out from windows 7. Will someone please help me. I cannot find it anywhere on the web. I am good at finding answers and this one has me stumped. THANK YOU!!!

The failure of the airport utility to find the TC suggests something more fundamental is wrong.
1. Use ethernet. Plug the laptop directly into the TC. Make sure you have internet connection and wireless is off.
2. In windows explorer type directly into the address bar the TC name or IP address.
\\TCname or \\TCIPaddress
If both of them fail and you still have internet access then the issue is firewall.
3. Test again with airport utility.
4. Ensure that the PC is set to home location, not work or public. Turn off all internet security, not just the firewall you can see.. as there can be another you cannot see.
5. If your laptop is setup for windows domain controller, then explain to your IT department you want to connect to peer to peer resources at home. It maybe blocked somehow.

No printing via Bonjour from Windows

Windows PCs can't print via my Tiger server using Bonjour. The printers shared by the server are visible in the Bonjour add new printer wizard. When printing the jobs are sent from the Windows PCs without error messages. But nothing gets printed.
The same queues work fine from Macs.
Looked for the print server logs, but the only logs for the queues are for Appletalk, and they are empty. The server is set not to share any of the print queues via Appletalk.
Tried printing via SMB, but no luck there either.
Printing from Windows directly to the printers using Bonjour works.
Tested turning of the server firewall, but this did not help.
Any ideas waht could be wrong?

Since you can print directly to them from Windows via Bonjour I am wondering how you are sharing the printer from the server. My guess is that it is via 'Print & Fax' of System Preferences. If the printers support LPR, then I would suggest you configure the server printers this way. Go to Server Admin > Print > Settings and enable LPR and 'Show name in Bonjour'. This will give you more control over the printers.
If you have shared the printers this way and since SMB also fails, then I would ensure you haven't enabled print quotas for the queue. This can make jobs vanish.
Even if you are using 'Print & Fax' to share the printer, you still should be able to see the cups error log. In the Server Admin, select Print, then select Logs and then for the Show menu select error log. This is the same log for both methods of shared printers and this should give some clues as to why the Windows spool files are not printing.

Access Linux shared folder from Windows OS

Hi,
From the web based Java application I need to copy a XML file from Windows OS to Linux OS in a shared folder.
For that we had used sambha and had mounted the shared directory in Linux OS and now we can access the folder by a user id guest with password guest.
Now from JSP web application how do I pass by default the user id and password so that when linux shared folder is acccessed it does not prompt for user id and password.
Thanks..

Thanks...
The folder is currently mounted. Currently what I need is how do I set my default user id and passowrd to the machine such that when the mounted drive is accessed it does not prompt me for the user id and password.
Currently The server and folder name is specified in a property file, Can we configure the user id and password too by default such that when its accessed it does not prompt for user is and password..
Thanks....

Accessing Time Capsule disk from Windows -- What's the status?

Hi,
I've seen much confusion about this problem, and nothing official from Apple...
What I know is that my TC with firmware 7.3.2 had no problems.
Both 7.4.1 and 7.4.2 instead do not allow windows pcs to mount the drive.
1) is there any known workaround?
2) does it depend on the TC settings?
thanks in advance for the clarification

You should be using the airport utility from windows .. not 6.2 which is only a Mac version AFAIK.
Did your windows suddenly decide spontaneously that it is now in work or public network.. instead of home.. windows does this at random intervals to make life exciting for all users. Drag it home.. and make it sit there.
No go, then shut down all the firewalls.
