Apache Directory on OSX Server for Windows PC's???

Is it possible to use Apache Directory Server as a service to provide Profiles, Home Shares, Individual Configurations, etc to Windows PC's as OSX Server does not support Windows Operating System after 10.7
Any suggestions would be great!!
Thanks

I have not setup a Samba4 system myself but I have found the following how-tos for you. I have used Ubuntu Server myself. The main difference between Ubuntu Server and client is that the Server does not have a GUI interface installed as standard. This is in this case a good idea as it reduces the processor and memory requirements. I would strongly advise going this route i.e. a CLI only interface.
First here is the official Samab4 setup instructions
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO
Now some user examples of Ubuntu Server setups
http://www.matrix44.net/cms/notes/gnulinux/samba-4-ad-domain-with-ubuntu-12-04
http://www.darklab.co.uk/2013/01/15/creating-a-samba-4-active-directory-primary- domain-controller-on-ubuntu-12-04-1-server/
http://paulcolfer.ie/os/linux/samba-4-domain-controller-on-ubuntu-server-12-04/
You can download a pre-built Ubuntu Server image for use with VirtualBox from here
http://virtualboxes.org/images/ubuntu-server/
You will still need to configure it and install the Samba components but at least Ubuntu Server itself will be already installed for you.

  • Free (java-based) LDAP server for Windows

    Hello,

  • HTTP Server for Windows 64 bit not on the companion CD

    Hi,
    I cannot find the HTTP Server for Windows 64 bit on the companion CD. Any idea where I can get it from? For the 32bit version the HTTP Server is on the Companion CD.
    Thanks in advance,
    Florin

    If i am correct reason should be : Oracle Application Server 10g will run as a 32-bit application
    Following platforms have the same media in either case:
    Microsoft Windows 32-bit and EM64T/AMD64
    (Not Itanium-64, which is separate and referred to as "Windows 64-bit")
    Linux x86 and Linux x86-64
    Solaris Sparc 32-bit and Solaris Sparc 64-bit
    As the Oracle Application Server 10g will be run as a 32-bit application. See the Installation Guide or readme files for any specific steps on these 64-bit platforms.
    Refer the Note.433061.1 - How to Obtain Application Server 10g Media, Patchsets, and Patches

  • How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7?

    How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7? I get an error saying: Can't Install the Software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    I downloaded the software so How do I install it?
    Do I install it all over again or when I have windows open?
    I am using Bootcamp.

    Back up your system drive completely. If you have no backup plan in place, now would be a good time to start. You can use CarbonCopyCloner to make a complete, bootable backup of your system on another drive or volume. After you have done this: download the combo update using the link supplied by Niel and run the installer.

  • Cisco Secure Access Control Server for Windows 3.0

    I have to rebuild a server using Cisco Secure Access Control Server for Windows 3.0 ... I cannot locate this software under "download software" in cisco.com ..
    where can I download a copy for Cisco Secure Access Control Server for Windows 3.0 ?

    Hi,
    You can not download the ACS windows Solution engines softwares from the cisco.com > download pages as these s/w are not available there. You can only download patches and remote agent software.
    In order to get any ACS software/ upgrade assistance you need to open up a TAC case.
    Also, ACS 3.0 is not supported by Cisco anymore..getting support for this version or any 3.x is not possible.

  • Local Apple Software Update Server for Windows

    Has anyone figured out, how to use Leopard's Software Update Server, as a local Apple Software Update Server for Windows?
    As you may know, 10.5 Software Update Server downloads, not only mac updates, but the windows' version of them as well (e.g. Safari, iTunes for windows).
    There has to be a way to use that new feature.

    {quote:title=Apple wrote:}
    Software Update Server is capable of automatically mirroring updates between
    Apple’s software update server and your local server to guarantee that the most
    current updates are immediately available. Mac OS X Server also supports hosting
    Apple updates for software running in Boot Camp, such as iTunes and QuickTime for
    Windows. To ensure security, all updates are digitally signed by Apple.

    No idea, how to get it running smoothly yet, however.

  • OSX Server for Directory Services and an Exchange Server

    I am about to purchase an Xserve. I only want to use this for authentication purposes (OpenLDAP, Kerberos, whatever).
    We are getting rid of Windows Small Business server, but want to keep using Exchange for our email (we will build a new server with Exchange, I am not going to try to keep Small Business).
    My network is half OSX clients, half Windows XP clients.
    My question is this:
    Is it possible to have all of my users in my Xserve and have Exchange get username/password information from an OSX server (our Xserver will be our primary controller)?

  • SL server as standalone server for  Windows(XP,7) network

    We have been using an OS X 10.3.9 Server XServe G5 as a mainly Windows ( all XP clients) PDC file server for 6-7 years. What a great machine and super reliable. But of course it is getting long in the tooth and so I am looking at the Mac Mini SL Server bundle.
    Now along comes Windows 7 which won't authenticate against an old style PDC. I am quite confused about whether a standalone SL server can act as a whatever is the equivalent to a PDC in the Windows 7 world. We simply want all our Windows XP and 7 client machines to authenticate against the SL server for consistent file sharing access.
    Thanks

    See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3235
    OS X cannot act as a PDC for Windows 7 or 2008 Server R2. So if you want to run a directory system for Windows 7, you can't use OS X at this moment in time.
    However, if you are happy for your Windows machines to be stand alone, not part of any domain and have all the users managed locally on each machine, then you can use OS X as a file server.
    You will need to create users on both the Windows machines and on the OS X box in this case.
    If you just have Windows clients and want a directory system, I would be looking at Active Directory.

  • Use MacMini server for windows apps and save for windows files ?

    My question : Office equiped mixed computers , aslo Windows and Mac,
    Could we use MacMini server for both machines, working by windows apps and / or to save and work with windows files on MacMini server  and with Mac as well?
    We woud use it for normal office work and get it by internet from other places as well
    windows apps: merchandising, invoice, word, excel, pictures editing, Outlook Express + the Mac apps
    thnx ,
    MACIren

    In general what you can do is: in OS X, use Windows in virtualization (aka emulation), as a "virtual machine" with VMWare Fusion, Parallels, or Oracle VM Virtual box.
    That way you have both operating system open side by side without having to reboot into one or the other operating system.
    Not sure whether you need a Mac Mini Server per se to do that, I do that with my MacBook Pro for instance. But the server would help since it has a quad-core CPU (more cores that you can dedicate to the virtual macine), and you can put the virtual machine on the second harddrive for better disk access performance. Was there some particular reason you were thinking of the Mini Server -- do you want to use server side Windows apps?
    Again I have that setup on my MacBook Pro using VMWare Fusion with an XP virtual machine. In the Windows, I only use Office 2003 and some company apps that are Windows only. With Fusion (and I'm sure the other apps can do it as well) you can set a "shared" folder so both Windows and Lion will see the contents of it for reading and writing. I believe with Fusion you can also do your entire Home directory, but I prefer to limit it to a single shared "work" folder.

  • How to configure a proxy server for Windows Azure Tools in Visual Studio 2013

    Hi Visual Studio/Azure Tools team
    I would like to use the Windows Azure tools in Visual Studio 2013 to manage my Azure Web sites (Server Explorer -> Windows Azure -> Web Sites) from within my corporate network which is secured using a proxy server. Unfortunately, I am not able to use
    the Windows Azure tools since the required HTTPS connection to windows azure is not going through the default configured proxy. Instead, Visual Studio tries directly to connect to port 443 which is blocked by our corporate firewall (and yes: there is no way
    around using our proxy server). Other visual studio features like NuGet, updates, etc. work fine and use the configured proxy server. 
    So my question: How can I configure visual studio respective its Azure tools to use a proxy server instead of a direct connection? I already tried configuring the proxy server within the file devenv.exe.config but this doesn't show any effect for Windows Azure
    tools.
    Regards
    tschaena

    As we have very similar problems I consider the found solution a work arround an existing problem which will not work if corporate FW policy does not allow such changes.
    In my mind, any tools in charge of dealing with some sort of FW protocols should deliver the following information, should make it absolute clear how to setup that the request packages are setup rigth at the first time.
    a) proxy server
    b) proxy port
    c) proxy user
    d) proxy users-password
    e) proxy.auth.Preference="BASIC"
    And for moste tools (including Visual Studio and AZUR Tools) it is absolut unclear
    a) how to setup that on a per tools basis
    b) OR who inherits this information from whom    i.e. use the same as IE does, what if we use FireFox or any other browsers?
    I understand that developers requested to cure such problem areas will often have difficulty to gain all required elemenst used to realy test the solution.
    But I can tell you: I loos more time figthing down the FW setups for my clients. WHat I do at home in a sniff, takes ages to be realised by all the various clients on the market where each has to deliver the same sort of information but actually does not,
    or has it just somewhere, but not in the vicinity of the demanding user.
    Good examples i.e. NetBeans IDE where the Option Menu shows very clearly what information is required to pass through a FW/Proxy; but even there, the hint to start with a BASIC authentication schema is not part of this OPTION menu and must be added a JAVA
    environment value. But at least, it works.

  • Modifying destination Directory of Application server for Open Hub

    Hi All,
    i want to load a csv file on application server using Open Hub.
    when i have created the open hub i have specified the server name, the file name and the directory.
    but the Basis guys told me that i should use another directory, they have created me a Unix Directory but the problem that i can't modify the directory path in my open hub.
    can you tell me please what is the problem?
    another question why i can't modify directly in Production System this parameter of server name, directory for open hub,
    in production i can create the open hub but when i have transported some one from dev to prod i can't modify in prod, i have controlled from transport tool the possibility of modication object and i see that for opne hub is "original modificable"
    Thanks for your help
    Bilal

    i have read in some forum that to " to change the server name or logical file name we can do so in the following table:
    RSBFILE"
    i tried to see the data of this table and i found 2 records for my open hub, 1 for Active version and 1 for Modified version
    i tried here to change the path name of the directory and after saving the system give me the message that the active version and the modified version of my open hub are not equal, when i try to activate again my open hub the system take the old
    directory path.
    is this is the right table to change the directory path on application server of my open hub? or there is another table?
    i don't work with logical filename, i work with file name and directory path name.
    thanks for your help
