Append to DNS Suffix greyed out

I recently installed windows 8.1. For my work i need to connect to multiple domain, i tried to add all my work domains to DNS Suffix but its greyed out.
Based on prior threads on this forum, I have updated following Group Policy (Computer -> Administrative Templates -> Network -> DNS Client 
Allow DNS Suffix appending to unqualified multi-label name queries -> Enabled
Primary DNS suffix -> Enabled (with list of my domains)
DNS suffix search list -> Enabled (with list of my domains)
Primary DNS suffix devolution -> Enabled
DNS Suffix option is still greyed out. Not sure what to do, could someone help please.
Thanks in advance for your support

Hi Gigi,
Since you have forced the DNS suffix list in GP, then the DNS suffix option should be greyed out, it's a normal phenomenon because you have forced everything by GP, right?
If you still want to add some list to the suffix search list, you should add it by GP.
If you want to set the option directly, you can disable the policy you have enabled.
If I misunderstood something, please free correct me, a screenshot would be very helpful.

  • Append to XML remains greyed out

    Hi folks,
    I am using MII 15.0 SP2 Patch 8. I created a new transaction having a xML transcation variable called "test" defined as you cans ee in below screenshot. It is a plain XML having a root node called options.
    Thereafter I created a new transaction adn placed an assignment block there. I treid to use append XML link type to extend my transaction variable. Unfortunately, when trying to append some new xml to test{/OPTIONS}, append XML functions remain greyed out...see screenshot below
    Any idea why that happens? Thanks for your help!

    Hi Anuji, thanks for your answer, u r right. But what if I do not want to choose some value from menue? My plan was to define a new XML segment as string in Expression Editor and append it to my XML. Does that mean this is not possible?
    I somehow need to build a multiline XML looking like this:
    <option>
    <item><text>content...</text></item>
    <item><text>content...</text></item>
    <item><text>content...</text></item>
    <option>
    Content should define a multiline "where clause". Eventually, I want to map resulting XML to options input section of RFC_READ_TABLE to query data from ERP using JCO connector.
    What's a suitable approach to get there?
    Greetings, Marco

  • [SOLVED] Append DNS Suffixes

    Hi there, I've had the same problem, and fixed it the way you described!
    At this point, I would, however, point out that this solution should not be required, according to the wiki entry for resolv.conf:
    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Resolv.conf
    It clearly states in the wiki article that:
    ...the domain name is determined from the host name and the domain search path is constructed from the domain name.
    ... so suppose that I had a host called "somehost.mydomain.com" (i.e., in the /etc/hosts file it says
    127.0.0.1 somehost.mydomain.com localhost somehost
    then surely the domain interpreted automatically is "mydomain.com" and the domain search path is ... probably "mydomain.com" as well. Why, when should I explicity state for every host on my domain that it's in mydomain.com, even when the FQDN given in /etc/hosts already implies that it should search there?!
    Clearly, the wiki article is inaccurate, unless other users have had a contrary experience.

  • How to remove greyed out ".local" suffix from name in mac 10.8.3

    Hi. Ive got a really really annoying problem. I have to fix this.
    Right now im running OSX 10.8.3 and when i go on airdrop, my icon displays my account picture and below that it says "Other people in AirDrop can see your Mac as localhost when their computer is nearby. Now my question is, how on earth can i change my name back to something normal like "Harrison"? And get rid of this "localhost" nonsense.
    When i try sharing and unlock the padlock, i try to edit my name but its just greyed out! and when i click edit i can change my name to whatever i want, but after my name, there is always a greyed out suffix saying ".local" that i cannot change no matter what i do!
    When i try terminal hacks, nothing changes. This is really starting to annoy me, and whoever manages to fix it, i can offer a small reward.
    PLEASE HELP

    in terminal:
    sudo scutil --set ComputerName Harrison
    sudo scutil --set HostName Harrison
    sudo scutil --set LocalHostName Harrison

  • Wrt160n connection specific dns suffix

    I have a WRT160N router that has been working great until I switched to a new ISP. The router configurations stayed the same, I just switched from a DSL modem to a cable modem (Motorola SB5100). The problem is the "connection specific DNS suffix" is being appended to the computer names and returning an incorrect IP address. Internet access is working fine. It appears that the DHCP is allowing the DNS suffix from the modem to push through to the DHCP clients.

    What do I tweak to fix this?
    Thanks

    Sorry about the misleading computer name, I'm not using a server for my DHCP. I'm using the router (WRT160N) as the DHCP server. This is just a home setup with 4-6 computers networked together. I use file sharing with the computer I call "home-server".  I use RDP to connect to the other computers. Now when I try to connect to another computer with just the computer name, the remote desktop fails to find the client. If I RDP the client computer with the IP address it connects, no problem.
    Netbios over TCP/IP is enabled.

  • Rv042 dhcp dns suffix error

    hi,
    rv042 after configuring dhcp is giving to clients dns with appended  suffix
    how can I take out append dns suffix? because when I ping server, for  example, inside lan, automatically transform in server.mydomain.com and return  error, of cours....
    how can i delete host name and domain name from network setup?
    all the problems appeare after i put theas fields...
    thanks

    Take a look under your DHCP settings on the router (this is under LAN), you should see a field labeled "Domain", leave it blank. Also you should place DNS server entries for your clients to resolve domains out side of your network. This is also in the same area, sorry its been a while and don't remember the exact tab.
    Suggested external DNS:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220 -- These are OpenDNS servers
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4 -- These are Google Public DNS servers

  • Unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion Server (Options are greyed out)

    For some reason, im unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion server. The + and - are greyed out. It seems like something is wrong with the permissons because it looks like it cant write the the Ldav3 file (although that may be speculation). Does anyone have any advice for me? I URGENTLY need to add users.
    Maybe theres a way to restore default permssions for the boot drive (if that in fact is the issue). Hopefully there is a way that I can fix this while leaving all users, groups, their permissions and shares intact.

    Anything interesting and relevent in the server logs?
    Anything interesting in the server alerts?
    Since it's far and away the most common cause of problems with OS X Server and with distributed authentication (Open Directory is entirely based on network encryption and digital certificates and on responses from your local DNS server(s)), verify your local DNS configuration is working and requires no changes with the following Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) harmless, diagnostic command:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    sudo requires an administrative password.  You might get a one-time warning about the sudo, and that can safely be ignored.  The command will display some details, and indicate whether the local configuration appears valid and no changes are required, or further diagnostics for (most) common errors that can arise.

  • Windows Deployment Service. Network Profile Radio Buttons greyed out with R2

    Hi All
    I have downloaded and setup Server 2008 R2 (not yet activated). I have added the following roles "DHCP Server", "DNS Server", "Active Directory Domain Services" and "Windows Deployment Services". I can PXE boot a test client machine and (using the boot.win from windows 7 dvd) multicast a XP Image to it. This setup is connected via a 100 Mb switch and is an isolated network. 
    Under windows deployment services - if I right click my server - select properties - network tab "Network Profile is greyed out". I have tried running wdsutil /Set-TransportServer /Server:big /Profile:100Mbps but get the following error message: "Windows Deployment Services Management Utility Version 6.1.7600.16385. Error code 0xC110011F This WDS transport server does not support network profiles.
    I have tried this on two hardware setups:
    An Intel D915GUX 3GHz 2GB RAM and Marvel Yukon 88E8050 ethernet controller.
    An Intel D965 Core2Duo 1.86GHz 2GB RAM and  Intel 82566DM Network controller.
    Incidently I have done the same setup with Server 2008 (not R2) on the D965 and the Network Profile radio buttons are not greyed out. If I upgrade the same test machine to server 2008 R2 the Network Profile radio buttons are greyed out. Is this a design change, does Server 2008 R2 no longer support network profiles as I am now unable to select 10 100 or 1000 Mbs ?
    If more information is required or if anything needs further detail please let me know.
    Thanks for any help.

    Is there any way at all to manually set or control the network profile? In my environment, a SCCM\WDS multicast stream is bottoming out on speed and network utilization when the stream crosses a Nexus 7009 router. Speeds go from 200 Mbps to 20 mbps. I have
    a theory that this "new" automatic configuration is placing the clients in a slow network profile that are on the opposite side of the router and I have been unable to find a way to speed of the transmission. I have also ruled out the "master
    client" slowing down the stream buy using different clients only connecting to a stream 1 at a time. I have also ruled out the router as the source of the problem by having a VLC client listen to the multicast stream on the same side of the router as
    the slow clients. The VLC client (unknown to SCCM\WDS) was able to receive the transmissions at 20 % utilization / 200 Mbps.

  • Sometimes, when I click on a link, I see in the address bar the words: "Search bookmarks and history" (greyed out) just before I am taken to the link. Should I be worried? Is someone searching my personal data? Is this just a FireFox error msg?

    Sometimes, when I click a link on a web page, I see in the address bar the words: "Search bookmarks and history" (greyed out) just before I am taken to the link I clicked. A moment later, when I'm at the link, its address appears in the address bar, and all is normal. It seems that this happens only from some particular sites. Is FireFox reporting that my bookmarks and history are being searched?
    Should I be worried? Is someone searching my personal data? Is this just a FireFox error msg when it has trouble finding the website I requested?

    That is OK. Firefox will only display the link in the location bar after the DNS look up has succeeded and a connection to the server has been established. Until that has been done you see the default setting for the location bar: Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest

  • Greyed out folders can't be opened

    I just downloaded a torrent file via Vuze and the file is in a folder "Vuze Downloads"
    In fact there are 2 "Vuze Download" Folders, an extra one with a suffix 2
    The one with the suffix 2 is visible and is empty (0 kb)
    The original one is greyed out and has 3.5GB of files but I can't see them
    I never had this before I upgraded to a new iMac 5K with OS X Yosemite
    Why are these files duplicated?
    Additional info. I have a SoftRaid external drive (RAID 5) but...these files are NOT on that drive, they are on the internal hybrid 3TB drive.
    This is really frustrating.

    No error message came up. It appeared to sync correctly, except that most songs were greyed out on iTunes as well as the iPad. The greyed ones had a little icon to the left of them that looked like a refresh button, but it didn't do anything.

  • HDR save/cancel is greyed out - bridge sooooo slow. PS6

    Hi I am having more frustrations again with the HDRs engine. Now it opens and I can make some changes but it will grey out the open and cancel buttons if I move the cursor from the laptop monitor to the external monitor, forcing me to essencially force quit PS6 (something I have to do often enough in the last month or so. opening the HDR in the laptop window does not do this but hampers my workflow. I have an additional problem with bridge which hangs, lags, crashes and generally acts like it doesn't want to do anything I want it to. I have recently swithced to a VPN server and after that is when things started to get strange. I know bridge needs an open port now but so perhaps it's that. These things; the external monitor and the VPN are just as important as PS6 so.. How can I config things so they run smoothly? thanks. Perhaps if I replaced the external monitor for one with a faster refresh rate? Found a way to bypass dinamic link??? I would LOVE to find a way to do that!!! dynamic link is a real drag (literally).
    I am on a macbook pro with 8GB RAM, 500 GB HD and a samsung synchmaster not mirrored.....I want to append that either monitor will cause the HDR dialog to grey out save/cancel. If I change from one app to another. THIS is what is causing it! HOW can I fix?? I will update as I see there is a new version. And report back to this thread.......It indicates that the app is up to date. No updates available. I had this problem with HDR pro early on with PS6. and the same problem is back, rendering the fooling thing useless - it freezes me out of any further actions causing me to have to force quit to get back into PS.... I had stopped using HDR pro when I upgraded to PC6 from 5.1 for this reason. Looks I will go back to good ole' reliable photomatix......Unless anyone have a fix????? Anyone?

    Sorry no. I see that message constantly. I don't believe in turning off warnings.
    All comp[atibility does is save a flattened Photshop 2.0 version inside the file. ID will use that as the preview instead of making a new one if it's there, but it has no bearing on anything else, as far as I know, and makes the file much larger than necessary unless you actually plan on trying to open it in Photoshop 2 or some other application that can't read newer Photoshop files.

  • Call transaction - Standard menu greyed out

    Hi,
    we use call transaction statement in our ABAP program like this:
    set parameter id 'MPL' field wa_liste-warpl.
          call transaction 'IP03' and skip first screen.
    The transaction IP03 is called correctly and the initial screen is skipped fine.
    But some entries in the menu (like "change") are greyed out.
    If we open IP03 manual this menu entries are not greyed out.
    Is something wrong with our call transaction coding or how could we solve this?

  • Switching from custom DNS suffix at work to no suffix at home with Access Connections

    I have 2 profiles defined in Access Connections: (1) Home, (2) Work. 
    At work, I need to have custom DNS suffixes defined to help find certain servers, e.g., development.int and marketing.int.  Notice that the TLD is "int", meaning it only resolves using our company's internal DNS servers.  In the Work profile, I selected the Override TCP/IP settings option and entered the suffixes in the Advanced DNS Settings dialog.
    However, at home, I do not have a need for these work related private DNS suffixes, and I don't want the system to try to append these 2 suffixes to the search order. I tried the following Advanced DNS Settings: (1) Use current advanced DNS settings, (2) Use the following advanced DNS settings / Append primary and connection specific DNS suffixes.
    When I come home from work, Access Connections automatically connects to the Home profile, detecting my Home WiFi network's SSID. 
    However, when I try to login to a server at home, e.g., media_server, using PuTTY, the system tries to connect to media_server.development.int instead of *just* media_server.  I, then, need to go to the TCP/IP settings manually and remove the DNS suffixes.
    How would I configure Access Connections so that when I come home from work, it doesn't keep appending the work related custom DNS suffxes?

    Could not find what you mentioned above. 
    I can go to "Additional Settings" tab, click "Settings" next to Override TCP/IP and DNS settings, click "Add Advanced DNS Settings".
    At this point, I have 2 choices: (1) Use current settings, and (2) Use the following advanced DNS settings.
    (1) would not work, since "current" would refer to my Work setup that *already* has the DNS suffixes entered in the search order.  If I choose, (2) and just leave it at "Append primary and connection specific DNS suffixes", this DOES NOT remove the existing list of suffixes from the TCP/IP stack configuration.
    Other than going into the Windows network adapter configuration UI for TCP/IPv4 and removing the sufixes manually, there is NO other solution at this point in time.
    The other solution that you propose of using a script doesn't work in an automated way, as in using it in the "Start an application automatically" setting, since these types of operations require Admin privileges, and I get an "Access denied" error back at the console session that runs my script (pasted below for reference):
    noDNSSuffix.cmd
