Advertise configuration globally using Bonjour

What does this mean "advertise configuration globally using Bonjour" it can be found in the (AE) setup under Airport Tabs- Base Station. If you place a check mark in that field what happens or I say what can happen.
Also I have a mac mini that seems to drop the Airport connection, all other devices seems to keep a connection. Keep in mind I setup the mac mini with its own IP address which is way out of the DHCP range, In addtion the account that the mac mini uses doesn't have Admin rights at all
Looking for someone to explain or point me in the right direction.
last but not lease maybe someone can tell me if this would be the right direction of setting up this network, I would like to be able to remote into system from work to home:
I've setup my network with the following setup:
1. Cable moden attached to the AE, with radio mode @ 802.11n (802.11b/g)
2 I have a old express attached to a 1gig router by Cat5, and the (AE) is set to bridge mode.
Is this the right setup to have if you want your mac mini on the network wireless? My mac mini is attached to the TV use for a media server only. I do have two other macbooks & a macbook pro.
thanks,
rob

Wide-area bonjour makes your bonjour services browsable over the internet. The missing piece, however, is the client configuration tool. Once you have your wide-area bonjour updates going to your DNS server you can use this preference pane to search your DNS server. Once installed and set up for your wide-area bonjour, things like Safari can browse your bonjour services.

  • So, what exactly does "Advertise disks globally using Bonjour" mean?

    Just got my APEBS-N on Saturday night at the local store and saw the option under Disks/File Sharning for "Advertise disks globally using Bonjour". Does anyone know what this means or what exactly the results will be? Does un-checking it mean that the disk won't be available over the LAN to the machines running the Airport Disk Utility? The same option appears under printers as well.

    OK, well I guess I will have to call...Anyhow, here is the official verbiage from the Apple docs. Notice how it says contact your ISP or Network Administrator for login info? Why would your ISP give you this type of info?
    Setting up your base station to use Bonjour
    Bonjour, sometimes referred to as zero-configuration networking, is a networking technology that allows devices to automatically discover each other without any configuration, or network setup.
    Some versions of the AirPort Extreme Base Station support using Bonjour to advertise services across the Internet. This requires a Dynamic DNS hostname and password you may have received from your Internet service provider (ISP) or network administrator.
    Once you have your account information, open AirPort Utility, select your base station in the list, and then enter the base station password if necessary. Click Advanced in the toolbar, and then click Bonjour. Enter the information you received from your ISP or network administrator in the fields provided.
    Check with your ISP or network administrator if you need more information about support for Bonjour.

    i am updating my airport express. However, the message comes up with Invalid value - advertising a service globally using Bonjour requires a global hostname. WHat does this mean?

    thank you thank you for taking an interest. this is so frustrating.
    i only have apple keyboard, mighty mouse, and 20 inch cinema display connected. this morning took out memory and tried to boot up with individual pairs in the first bank. first the (2)256, the (2) 1g, and then the other (2) 1g modules. everytime I get the weird fuzzy wheel under the logo after a while, black screen flashes, then grey apple logo fuzzy screen then black forever.
    I ran tiger updates this morn. still will only boot to safe mode. then tried to run leopard disk to install it
    will not boot from leopard disk.
    tried safe boot, then doulble click install leopard, restart, then the saga repeats with the pixely red square around the wheel.
    these are fresh drives with only what came on instll disk loaded.
    thanks again for taking an interest.
    i love this system(well at least i did). I want to install leopard on my powerbook too but am terrified to do so right now since it is working and I have work to do. Can't afford to have no computer to do my work on...self employment is great?!
    This is making me crazy. I anxiously await your words of wisdom.

  • When attempting  to set a password on my Airport Extreme guest network i get this "Advertising a service globally using Bonjour requires a global hostname." What can i do to set password on this network?

    When attempting to set a password on my Airport Extreme Guest Network i get this "Advertising a service globally using Bonjour requires a global hostname." What does it mean. Or what i need to do to correct it.

    When trying to troubleshoot my problem I discovered a forum that was saying certain NTFS drives work just fine
    Apple support says that an NTFS or exFAT drive cannot be used when connected to the AirPort Extreme.
    I suppose it is possible that someone might have been using some type of special software on the drive that might perform a "conversion", but without more details, it is hard to know.
    Note: ExFAT and NTFS formats aren't supported.

  • How to configure global transaction wthin Oracle AS JMS and Oracle JMS

    How to configure global transaction if I take a message from Oracle JMS(AQ) and send it to the Oracle JMS?

    Which version of OC4J are you working on?
    In OC4J 10.1.3.x, presume your OC4J JMS listens messages via MDB which uses a resource adapter as a message listener. The resouce adaper could be the generic JMS adapter deployed in OC4J as the default.
    Resource adapter configuration to support MDBs is included in the standard ra.xml file, which lists the message listener types that the resource adapter supports.
    The MDB developer or deployer configures the MDB in the ejb-jar.xml file, through a <message-driven> element.
    In addition to above, configuration in the ejb-jar.xml file specifies whether an MDB uses transactions.
    1) The <transaction-type> subelement of <message-driven> in ejb-jar.xml has a value of Container, and the <trans-attribute> subelement of <container-transaction> (under the <assembly-descriptor> element) has a value of Required. In this circumstance, if there is an imported transaction, then message delivery and related work are performed within that transaction. If there is no imported transaction, OC4J creates a transaction, and message delivery and related work are performed within that transaction.
    2) The <transaction-type> subelement of <message-driven> in ejb-jar.xml has a value of Bean. In this circumstance, the MDB manages the transaction. If a transaction is imported, OC4J will suspend it before the message delivery method call to the MDB, in order to avoid conflict.
    Message delivery is not transacted if the <transaction-type> subelement of <message-driven> in ejb-jar.xml has a value of Container, but the <trans-attribute> element has a value of NotSupported. If there is an imported transaction in this circumstance, OC4J will suspend the transaction before the message delivery method call to the MDB.
    Details could be found from OC4J Resource Adapter Guide.

  • Configuring Global Currencies in BI Apps 7.9.6 for EBS 11.5.10 Source

    Hi All,
    After reviewing the Configuring Common Areas and Dimensions section of the Oracle BI Applications document [Oracle Business Intelligence Applications Configuration Guide for Informatica PowerCenter Users Version 7.9.6 E14216-01|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14223_01/bia.796/e14216.pdf] I have a question regarding section +3.1.2 How to Configure Global Currencies+.
    Background
    OLTP Source: Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10
    OBI Apps: Financial Analytics 7.9.6
    We have 49 enabled Currencies and multiple Sets of Books (SOBs) each with a different Functional Currency and I am concerned with the limitations of the Global Currencies configuration within OBI Apps. From the documentation it states that:
       Global currencies. Oracle BI Applications provides three global currencies, which are the common currencies used by the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse. I'm keen to know if the 3 standard Global Currencies can be extended by adding further custom parameters in the Source System Parameters e.g. $$GLOBAL4_CURR_CODE, $$GLOBAL5_CURR_CODE, etc. and corresponding Exchange Rate parameters $$GLOBAL4_RATE_TYPE, etc.
    From the documentation definition of Document, Local and Global currencies, the following configuration for the Global currencies does not make much sense:
    $$GLOBAL1_CURR_CODE (for the document currency).
    $$GLOBAL2_CURR_CODE (for the local currency).
    $$GLOBAL3_CURR_CODE (for the global currency).Presumably these should be the 3 standard Global Currency definitions. If so, I want to confirm that the Document and Local currencies get picked up automatically depending on your EBS configuration?
    Thanks for your time, all input greatly appreciated... and points duly awarded :-)
    Have a great day.
    Kind Regards,
    Gary.

    Hi,
    The 3 Global currency codes are different from functional , local currency.
    All the transactions are brought into the warehouse and there is no limitation to the number of currencies that can be brought in but for reporting purpose you want to convert all these transactions in multiple currencies to a single currency ...lets say US$ and at a monthly rate or GBP at a spot rate etc..
    So in a nutshell the document and local currenclies do come in and there is no configuration needed but translation to a global reporting currency and the rates at which its converted is determined by what you provide in DAC.. the conversion is done by mplt_currency_conversion which is present in each and every fact mapping.

  • Using Bonjour with Windows 7?

    Recently purchased an HP G62-144DX Notebook with Windows 7 pre-installed. I've been trying to print using Bonjour through the airport express to my Canon printer. The airport works with the Mac OS on my iMac and Macbook pro. It usually works with an old Dell laptop that runs Vista Home Premium. However, it does not work on my HP with Windows 7 or my iMac with Windows 7. I have the latest Bonjour installation, which claims to work with Windows 7.
    Oddly, when I print, I don't get an error message on my laptop. It's as though the computer sends the printed document off into space. I've tried disabling my Avast Anti-virus, thinking that maybe the print job was being firewalled. I've tried re-running Airport Utility. I've tried re-downloading Bonjour. Basically, I've tried everything that I can think of. Nothing ever prints.
    Anyone have a clue how to resolve this?

    I've read a lot of discussions on this problem and there was no answer I could find. However I knew that Bonjour uses IP address printing so I looked for where the address was configured. I have TimeCapsule but I think Airport works the same.
    Go to Devices and Printers, right click on the Printer (HP, Samsung etc) and select Printer Properties and then select Ports and then highlight and "Configure" the port for the printer from the list. Mine Printer configuration said something like "TimeCapsule.local" for the IP address (strange IP address huh?) so then I set the IP address to 10.0.1.1 which is the address of my TimeCapsule. Eureka, it worked.
    Hope this helps.

  • Cannot print using Bonjour 1.03

    This iMac is connected to a HP LaserJet 1022 via USB. My wife uses a Dell desktop and now wants access to the Laserjet. So I have installed Bonjour on the Dell and it has identified the Laserjet connected to this iMac. But when attempting to print a document nothing happens
    The strange thing is, if I view the list of completed jobs in system preferences/print & fax/print queue, the doc's that I have attempted to print from the Dell are listed as completed/finished.
    The UDP port is open on the Dell and sharing for printer and windows is set up. Any ideas???

    This may not be good news but, if you are using Windows Vista on the Dell laptop, then I can sympathise with you. For the past 6 weeks I have been trying to send a print file from a Toshiba Laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium via a MAC wireless network to an iMac running OS X 10.4.9 which has an HP 2410 connected to it by USB.
    The Toshiba shows print jobs running & completed but there has been absolutely nothing happening on the iMac. Investigation of the Network shows Port activity from the Toshiba to the iMac so there are quite a few files floating in cyberspace.
    (Another laptop running windows XP Pro can easily use the same network to get print jobs to the iMac which then prints them OK on the HP 2410. This can be done using Bonjour or not using Bonjour - details on the iFelix website.)
    Delving deep into Vista Windows Registry seems to indicate a bewildering set of conflicting security permissions irrespective of what is set globally. The Toshiba is new & came pre-loaded with Vista. I just wish I'd bought an XP Pro machine; it had to be a Windows machine for school compatibility otherwise I'd never even give Windows a second glance.

  • Problems printing to HP printers using Bonjour and XP

    Good afternoon all
    I am unable to print from my ThinkPad X61 PC laptop running XP (Service Pack 3) to either of my HP printers (Laserjet 6MP and PhotoSmart C3180) connected to my Airport Extreme via a USB hub. They work fine from my MacBook running Snow Leopard, or when directly connected to my PC.
    I am able to install both printers using Bonjour Printer Wizard (and recognize them through Airport Utility). I then print a document, it spools to the print queue, then generates an error saying the document failed to print. I have tried it without the hub with the same result.
    I have reinstalled Bonjour and the printer drivers and followed the Printer Troubleshooting Guide procedure to no avail. I have also tried the TCP/IP port creation which did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Yours
    Sam

    Hi Pahu,
    Thanks for you reply. Here's some additional information because I'm not quite sure how to resolve the network addressing as you described. The router is set up as a DHCP server, using the standard 192.168.1.1 IP address, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 The starting IP address is 192.168.1.100, and I have it set to allow up to 50 connections. (No particular reason, I think that may have been the default.) The printer is set up to check a variety of connection protocols, starting with DHCP. If that fails, it moves to BOOTP, etc. When I print the network configuraton page from the printer, it tells me the IP address is 169.254.18.32, subnet mask 255.255.0.0, default gateway 169.254.18.32, and the IP is configured by AUTOIP.
    In the past, when it has been working properly, the printer shows an IP address of 192.168.1.10X, usually .100 or .101, but it depends on which device I've powered up first. This is what I would expect, given that the printer should be communicating with the router and be assigned an IP address by DHCP. What I can't figure out is why the printer reverts to its internal default IP address 169.254.18.32, and why this is inaccessible even if I try to designate the printer as an IP printer and type in the printer's IP address.
    Do I need to set the printer to refresh its DHCP lease more often to ensure it doesn't get cut off by the router? How do I make sure the printer stays on the same subnet as the computers if they're all on the same router? Should I assign the printer a static IP address like 192.168.1.100, then set the DHCP range to start at 192.168.1.101? Sorry to ask so many questions, I'm not a network expert and I didn't think this printer would be such a pain to configure.
    Cheers,
    R

  • How-to: Using Bonjour Browser as a troubleshooting tool

    AirPort Extreme uses Bonjour (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/bonjour/) to facilitate features like disk sharing and printing. You can use a Bonjour browser to see what features are active on your network.
    How does this help?
    Many questons on the forum are similar to 'Where's my shared disk/iTunes/printer/airport?' A Bonjour browser can tell you if your disk/iTunes/printer/airport is present in your network. If the feature is not present focus on the device/feature. If the feature is present focus on your client computer.
    1) Download a Bonjour browser, e.g. I use this browser: 'Bonjour Browser' (http://www.tildesoft.com/Programs.html)
    2) Install and run Bonjour Browser
    3) You should see a hierarchy of features under 'local'. There maybe other domains in addition to local.
    Here's some examples of Bonjour-advertised features:
    Shared disks appear under 'adisk.tcp.' Under this heading you can see all your AirPorts with the disks you nominated for sharing, with IP addresses.
    The base station itself is under 'airport.tcp.' Under this entry are all the base stations you have (b/g and n, AirPort Express etc ...)
    The 'AirTunes' entry tells you which IP address is your AirTunes/AirPort Express device.
    You can also see any file sharing, SSH, iTunes music sharing etc .. that may be offered by your client computers. I see my IP printer under 'Printer PDL Data Stream).
    Hope this helps your troubleshooting.

    Hi gino,
    Select -
    where text CP 'Manufacturer' is right answer. If you get error on that statment, you would probably check the field that is used in where clause.
    or  try the following statement. Hope this will helps.
    select -
    where text = '%manufacturer%'.
    I think it will then become a performance issue. Explain it clearly that what exactly you want and where is this being used.
    Do you want some thing like search help? Example: customer number search from any customer field. If so try to create a search help and add the same to your custom field.

  • Sharing time capsule over internet using bonjour

    I recently purchased a time capsule and set it up to wirelessly connect to my home network. After some reading I've found out that I can access the time capsule when away from home. I've read that there is normally a spot to check "share disks over WAN" but I have "share disks over the internet using bonjour". Now I have tried to share the disk using bonjour and I can't figure out how to access it after this step is completed. Can anyone help??
    Thanks

    Hello mbeal08. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    (Note: The following procedure will only work if the Time Capsule (TC) is the router directly connected to Internet modem. It will NOT work if the TC is a downstream router behind another router.)
    To share out the TC's internal drive to 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 in order to access the TC from the Internet. This is something Back to my Mac (BTMM) would have make simple for you.)
    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 MacBook Pro to the TC from a remote location
    o In the Finder, click Go > Connect to Server.
    o Type in the correct domain name or external IP address for your network, plus a colon and the port number you specified when configuring the TC earlier. For example,"www.myTC.com:5688" or "145.200.112.108:5688".
    o Click Connect.
    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.
    o Click Connect.
    You should now be connected to the TC's internal drive from your MBP. (Note: The TC will appear in the Shared section of your Finder's sidebar as a server with TC's Base Station Name as the server name.)

  • A new version of Firefox, which downloaded automatically, says Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that's refusing connections, even though I had access before the download.

    I was using Firefox earlier in the day with no problem. About half an hour ago I tried to get on the Internet using Firefox (as always). When I did, I was greeted with a little dialog box showing that something was downloading. That's happened before.
    This time, though, I was greeted by an error page that said Firefox was configured to use a proxy server that's refusing connections.
    I'm not on a network. I have a desktop computer that connedts to a wireless modem that I share only with my wife. I didn't change my settings on either. Neither did my wife.
    My "Connection Settings" box still says "use system proxy settings." There are no entries in the manual settings boxes.

  • Doesn't play songs, "itunes is not configured for use with mac-formatted"??

    Hi, new ipod shuffle. Seems to charge fine, all indicator lights function as expected. Everything looks fine in itunes. But it doesn't play songs. I have the most recent versions of itunes and the ipod software. Re-set, updated, and restored, nothing works. Even restored using the restore utility. Re-started computer. Checked for volume control. Won't play songs. Tried different file types. Songs play fine from itunes library and from the device's library within itunes. Tried different headphones. Hooked it up to computer speakers. Turning volume all the way up on device and speakers, heard some very faint rhythmic static, so my guess is the jack socket (or whatever you call it) is just messed up, but it seems weird that it can transfer power and data to the device but doesn't work for sound...
    The only other issues that have come up is that the drive disappears in explorer once it syncs with itunes. Other people who've noticed this seem to have completely different problems so I don't think it's related.
    Also, I have MacDrive on my computer. And when it starts up with the ipod plugged in, MacDrive offers the message "Itunes is not configured for use with Mac-formatted ipods." It offers to automatically reconfigure itunes so it can read mac-formatted ipods. Since I've restored the device, I don't see why formatting should be an issue so I say "no."
    Should I try letting macdrive do its format thing? Should I try formatting the ipod disk on the My Computer menu? Or should I just email apple and tell them the jack's busted?
    Thanks for any thoughts!

    Well, I have had my iPod for about 3 years, it is a 4th generation non-video 40 GB. One day it just stopped working, and now it does not play any songs. when I turn it on it makes this odd whirring sounds that computers make when they try really hard to do something. I cannot charge it, and it is not recognized by iTunes. Also when I turn it on, I get the apple.com/ipod/support (or whatever it is) screen. Needless to say, my warranty is expired, and so I cannot do anything for it except get a new battery, or buy a new one. Is there any way to fix this problem, or anyone out there who is experiencing the same thing?
    I'm having the exact same problem with my wife's iPod. However it will play about 3 seconds of a song and go onto the next song.
    If there is anyone out there that can help please do!
