Amateur question - how to setup iChat service?

"Make sure the user is a user or member of a group that's defined in the Open Directory search path of the iChat server."
How do I verify this?
I have created a user and the user is a member of the "chat server group", but I still can't connect to to the service.
Help please! =)

Hello buckster,
I'm also trying to turn on a iChat Server and use it. The iChat service is apparently "E-Z" to turn on in Server Admin tool but something about the wording of "search path" for Open Directory users is throwing me.
I'm not new Mac OS Server ( 3+ years ) nor to using Open Directory or WGM or Server Admin but I'm being tripped up in the setup of users. I can't seem to figure out "search policy" and "search path". I get the basic idea but I apparently do not understand the sequence of creating a Search Path so that iChat Server can be accessed.
Basic Setup-
DNS on
LAN using 192.168.0.x
192.168.0.1 - server.LANlocal_domainname.net
WAN using 10.0.1.x (Wireless thru AirPortBase Station as Gateway and Firewall internet with port routing to 10.0.1.2 as needed. APB is the DHCP manager for Wireless) server.WANdomainname.com
alias to ichat > server on both interfaces.
DHCP on - Managing 192.168.0.x
iChat on with Host Domains=ichat.LANlocal_domainname.net & ichat.WANdomainname.com
Open Directory on >>>>Open Directory Master with LDAP Settings pointing to search base of the WAN based user group
dc=server,dc=WANdomainname,dc=com
(CHECKED) Enable Secure Sockets Layer
Certificate: Default
Binding
NO CHECKS
Security
NO CHECKS
Workgroup Manager: server.WANdomainname.com
Authenticated as DirectoryAdministrator to directory
: /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1
I've got 23 users and 6 Groups that I have used for different kinds of things.
Web Mail Access
Website Access
FileMaker Server Access
Application Server Access
etc.
and now I'd like get iChat working ....
I'm on the inside of a router (though that shouldn't matter, right?), no software firewall (Firewall Service is not On). For a start, all I'm trying to do is get two machines inside the LAN to chat with a Jabber client (iChat or Atrium). I keep getting indications that the server is not found.
Sorry if this seem lame but I would really appreciate a step by step of the set up of two users, one that is on another machine that is not directly controlled by the setup of Open Directory and WGM an another that is not the iChat Search as a client (as well as the server). I'd don't need lots of explaination but it would be really helpful to have a click by click for user, group, search path.
Thank You for your help.

  • How to setup Data services to use existing zend application

    The application I'm working on is going to have views created both in Flex and in PHP. Thus, we want to setup the Zend framework so that it can be used for the PHP part of the application and to display views in the browser. We want to setup the AMF gateway so that it's a service provided through a controller in Zend and with the actual service classes hidden from public view in the application folder, and not like the default now seems to assume that you create a folder in your public webroot where the endpoint and all service classes live.
    So the structure we are after is
    Zend_AMF endpoint at http://example.com/services/amf
    Zend folder structure:
    application/controllers/ServiceController.php    // the controller that handles all incoming requests, so acts as the gateway.phpI assume
    application/services/amf/    // contains the actual service classes, e.g. Users.php, Products.php
    public/swf/    // will contain the actual .swf files for the Flex application
    the /public/ folder is set to the webroot with /application/ outside the webroot as per the Zend framework recommendations.
    I would like to use the Data service introspection to generate the Flex code for the services, however the introspection afaik requires the services to be in the /public/ folder or a subfolder there. So how can I make introspection work for a service that lives in /application/services/amf and is accessed through http://example.com/services/amf ?
    Suggestions? links to tutorials?

    Yes, well hopefully this will be supported in the future. In the mean  time, I've noticed that it's only actually when creating the service  and the API for it that you need to have the class inside the web root.  In order to configure the return types and input types you don't need to  go through the standard gateway.php anymore. So, although not ideal,  here's how I do it right now:
    1. I have set up m zend  framework as described in my first post, with my AMF service gateway being a Zend controller and not the gateway.php
    2. I create the service class with the API I need inside the application/services/amf folder. If the service needs to connect to the database then I create a Zend Db Model using the zf command line tool (as per Zend framework practices) and then hook my service class to use that. Which basically means that my service classes are very slim and simple.
    3. When I created the Flex project I created a dummy service using the sample  php, which has set up Flash builder with the default gateway and so on
    4. Once I've created my service class, I copy the file to the default location where Flash Builder wants to create my services. I then strip out any implementing code from the copied file, leaving only the public API and empty methods.
    5. I then create a new service in Flash builder, point it to the stubb class in the default location and let the introspection discover the public api. This will of course mean that all input values and return values are generic objects.
    6. After this is done I delete the stubb class. In the created AS service class I override the service endpoint so that it points to my real gateway controller within the zend framework.
    7. After this is done I can configure the return types and input types using auto discovering. It will connect to the real gateway and ignore the default gateway and thus I can develop against the real endpoint and don't need to create my service classes within the public location of the Zend folder structure.
    It's a bit of a workaround for sure, but since I don't create new services that often and I can have Flash builder update my return types etc. automatically this way, I figure it's worth the extra steps. Still, I would hope that in the future Flash builder will support having the introspection happen on a location outside the projects own web root.

  • I don't understand how to setup iChat Server

    I have iChat server running, but when I try to setup an account on the client side, I get an error that the Jabber user ID is invalid.
    I don't understand. Why wouldn't the Jabber ID not be the same as the login information for the rest of the services?

    server.companyname.com.
    that is correct is you have it set that way. You can make changes and have so you can log in as [email protected] if that is necessary. Personal choice really. I go for the format jabber.domain.com

  • CS3/4, JS Amateur question: how remove all empty text frames?

    I'm an amateur, and thought it would be a straightforward matter to write a script that simply deletes all empty text frames in all of a document's stories. Here's my second attempt:
    var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
    var myStories = myDocument.stories;
    for (i = 0; i < myStories.length; i++){
      var myStory = myStories[i];
      var myTextFrames = myStory.textContainers;
        for (j = myTextFrames.length - 1; j >=0; j--) {
        if (myTextFrames[j].contents == "") myTextFrames[j].remove();
    The trouble is, sometimes it works as intended, but sometimes, with multiple stories, it needs to be run more than once. Can anyone explain why that is?
    Thanks -- Jeremy

    AHA! -- This is a great help. It was driving me up the wall, and I don't know why it didn't work for me last night. Maybe it's because I was counting through stories in the wrong direction. Anyhow, I see how it works now, and I'm very grateful for the help.
    By the way Harbs, I used all three of your suggestions because I had spent far too much time tapping away at that nut with my little toy hammer. I vented my frustration by using all three of your sledgehammers. In particular, I made sure it left a single empty text frame where it was, as such a frame might be used as a graphic. (Although in the past, I've found an empty story can be a sneaky place for a rogue font to hide. The insertion point just in front of the "end of story" character can have a paragraph style applied, with its associated font, but "Find" won't find any characters with that paragraph style or font applied!)
    Thanks to all again -- Jeremy

  • How to setup a HA service for RAC?

    I have a RAC. It has 2 nodes: node1 and node2.
    I want to setup a service and make this service only based on node1
    only node1 is damaged, then this service will failover to node2
    I checked related knowledge at internet.  All the information is related to load balance, not for high available.
    For example, below service is load balance:
    srvctl add service -d HIC -s CMTLB -r 'HIC1' -a 'HIC2' -P PRECONNECT -e SELECT -x TRUE -j SHORT -B SERVICE_TIME -m BASIC -z 180 -w 5
    Now I want to setup a high available service, how to do?
    one more question, I should run "srvctl add service" by user "oracle" or "grid"?

    user8710670 wrote:
    Thanks a lot for your information.
    Yes, I think my command is good to setup a service.
    But this service is a load balance service.
    Through this service, all the connections will be put at both nodes.
    Currently, my requirement is that I need a service
    Through this service, all the connections will only be put at one node,
    until this node damaged,
    then the connections are put at another node
    Do we have a way for this case?
    Your service will not run on both nodes. It will run on one and failover to the other. However, a better way would be to define it as a policy manged service, which may be what you are thinking of.

  • How to Setup Service Desk and CHARM in Solu Man 4.0

    Hi Gurus
    I am New to Solution Manager 4.0 and i want to setup Service Desk and Change Request Management for my client. Any one help me to guide where i can start and after configuring how the functionality of service desk and change request management.
    Can anybody send the documents with screen shot how to configure and how it lokks after Configuration.
    My client requirement is he wants to make Service desk as a ticketing tool and Charm as Change management tool
    Please help me
    Piont rewarded for solution
    Rajesh

    Hello
    I have configured Ibase for Charm, i followed spro config info as follows:
    Manually Create and Assign the Component Systems asiBase
    In this IMG activity, you define the Installed Base (iBase) manually, that is for refreshing existing iBases after solutions have been changed.
    An iBase component has to be created for each satellite system from which Service Desk messages will be sent to the SAP Solution Manager system.
    For the Value Added Reseller (VAR), it is not absolutely necessary to manually define the iBase at this point. We recommend, however, that you carry out this step so that you have a functioning test scenario.
    Activities
    1. In transaction Change Installed Base (IB52), choose iBase No. 1 (SOL_MAN_DATA_REP).
    2. Create under the IBase Header (SOL_MAN_DATA_REP) an IBase component, for example the SAP component system (SAP WEB AS) or use an existing one.
    3. To assign the systems as iBase components, go to the Text item tab.
    Three components are included in the standard package.
    4. Add all the satellite systems as text items to the table:
    Column Short text: Description of the system
    Column Identification: System ID, installation number, client
    5. Save.
    After changes have been made to a solution, repeat these steps to update system landscape data for iBase.
    Note:
    Every system is only listed once in the iBases. That means a system is not listed in an iBase if it has been listed in another iBase before.
    If the identification is not entered correctly, the system cannot correctly identify the component from the incoming Service Desk message.
    Its really good and I have set up the config in that way only.
    If useful reward the points.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Sharmishtha

  • Designer beginner's question: How to populate form with XML web service output?

    sorry, here is yet another Adobe Designer beginners question: <br /><br />My form uses a webservice data connection which returns <br />an xml-string like this: <br /><br /><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?> <br /><CurrentWeather> <br />  <Location>Sion, Switzerland (LSGS) 46-13N 007-20E 481M</Location> <br />  <Time>Apr 26, 2007 - 09:50 AM EDT / 2007.04.26 1350 UTC</Time> <br />  <Wind> from the WSW (240 degrees) at 15 MPH (13 KT):0</Wind> <br />  <Visibility> greater than 7 mile(s):0</Visibility> <br />  <SkyConditions> partly cloudy</SkyConditions> <br />  <Temperature> 80 F (27 C)</Temperature> <br />  <DewPoint> 46 F (8 C) </DewPoint> <br />  <RelativeHumidity> 30%</RelativeHumidity> <br />  <Pressure> 29.88 in. Hg (1012 hPa)</Pressure> <br />  <Status>Success</Status> <br /></CurrentWeather> <br /><br />What is the simplest and recommended way to extract the <br />element fields to my form? <br /><br />Thank you very much an kind regards, <br />Hans Grund

    The question is still unanswered!
    Let me give some details and break up the problem
    in more specific questions:
    - In Designer 8.1 I click new data binding --> wsdl -->
    http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx?wsdl
    A message box comes up and says "cannot load wsdl file"
    ==> 1. Question:
    Why maybe refuses Designer to load the http-wsdl,
    although this option is explicitly allowed?
    - When I save the wsdl to a file, Designer loads it
    without any problems. The web service uses two input parameters
    (CountryName and CityName) and returns an xml-string GetWeatherResult)
    like the one in my first posting. I drag these fields from the binding view to my form, and it runs ok!
    - THE PROBLEM IS, THAT I NEET TO EXTRACT THE ELEMENT FIELDS
    FROM THE RESULT XML-STRING!
    ==> 2. Question:
    How to extract xml element fields from wsdl output into a form?
    - I tried with eclipse and XmlSpy to build a modified wsdl file
    with structured output definition, so that the specific element fields
    show up in the data binding view and are usable to my form,
    and the modified wsdl maps consistently to the web service result string.
    So far without success: In the PDF -preview or Reader-
    when the wsdl-binding is executed and the web service output
    should show up in the result fields, just nothing happens.
    ==> 3. Question:
    Can this strategy to provide a "modified wsdl" possibly succeed,
    and how?
    ==> 4. Question:
    Is is possible -and how?- to check whether an xml string
    is valid as web service output against the wsdl-definition?
    ==> 5. Question:
    How to debug a web service connection with Designer?
    - Finally I tried to find a way to load the result xml-string
    into a local var in the script editor and parse it, much like:
    var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
    xmlDoc.load(DataSet.MyForm.GetWeatherResult.rawValue);
    ==> 6. Question:
    Is it possible -and how?- to use a framework like dotnet?
    How to utilize SAX or DOM in Designer?
    Many thanks and appreciations for your help!!

    Hi,
    According to your comment, I can say that Share permissions are automatically set up by the management tools once it will be created. We can use windows PowerShell or server manager to manage UPD. Also remember that User profile disks are for a single collection
    only. A user connecting to two different collections will have two separate profiles.
    Here providing important link to understand UPD. (You can refer below link for Server 2012 R2)
