Auto-Generated Number For All Users

We're on Lync Server 2013, running a front-end pool consisting of 3 front-end servers. Users are VoIP enabled. We're seeing some inconsistent behavior while right-clicking an user and selecting the "Call" option. Even though the respective target
users don't have an "Other" phone number set in AD, the Lync client seems to be somehow auto-generating a normalized entry and presenting this as an "Other" entry in the contextual menu that allows calls. The entry always begins with +1
(425). Strange enough, this is the prefix used in some sample normalization rules in a Microsoft article
here.
Even though Dial Plans - to my understanding - shouldn't alter this (they only apply normalization rules for manually dialed numbers only), I've searched through all the normalization rules but there's none that start with +1 (425). I've also tried running
ABSConfig, yet this tool crashes systematically on multiple machines (the Lync servers have updates dating from less than 2 months ago).
Also - there's no normalization .txt file created in the ABFiles in the Lync Share, as in
this article. Taking a look in the local GalContacts.db file shows the regular phone numbers, but not this one - hinting that it's something the Lync client creates on the fly. Additionally, no Lync Address Book Web Query is visible in Fiddler when browsing
through the users' phone numbers in the Lync client.
Adding to the problem is that some users see the "Other" entries, while others don't - eg. user X right clicks user Z and sees a wrong "Other" entry, while user Y right clicks user Z and doesn't see any wrong entry containing "Other".
First question is what could trigger this behavior in the client ? Secondly, has ABSConfig.exe become broken by a recent update ?

According to the 2nd article - I've created an empty Company_Phone_Number_Normalization_Rules.txt file and placed it in the Lync file share, in order to avoid any suspicion that the built-in file might be used. I've updated the address book but unfortunately
can't restart the FE services at this time. There's no still no change in the client.
Yet - the problem here is the numbers shown aren't present in the files making up the Lync address book inside the local user's sip profile folder.

Stting auto pac file for all users

What happened to all.js in Firefox 4.
Need to be able to place a pac file into proxy settings for all users. Do not want to have to get the users to individually enter a pac file for their own profile.
If this is no longer possible in version 4, I think Firefox is going to lose a lot of domain users

js files in %PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\ are read on startup (In reverse alphabetical order AFAIK). You can create a file here for your proxy settings. Works for me.

Disable JRE Auto update in Vista for all users?

I feel like a complete idiot that I can't figure this out, but it's either so obvious I'm overlooking it, or I just plain can't figure it out, so I'm hoping someone here can help.
We have not yet been able to figure out how to simply disabled the Auto Update option when installing JRE under Vista, so it will never check for updates, no matter what user is logged into a pc. I've just installed the newest version 1.6.0_05-b13, but get the same results.
Basically, we are creating a "base clone image" of a Vista workstation and we need the auto update feature of the JRE to be disabled so it doesn't check for updates. When a new user logs into the pc, we want them to 'inherit' this setting from the default user profile, or we simply want a 'global' setting on the pc that stops all JAVA update checks from occuring. But even though there are multiple registry keys that 'look' like they control the auto update function, no matter how we set them the update option still shows it is enabled when you open the JAVA control panel.
We have 2 basic problems:
- When a standard user runs the JAVA Control Panel applet and they select the 'Update' tab, the option to "uncheck" autoupdates is "grayed out". If we make the user a local administrator, then it is not grayed out anymore and they can set the option. Problem is, we have thousands of users and none of them are local administrators, hence the problem of getting it to already be defaulted to not check for updates. How do we get the update checkbox to NOT be grayed out for a NON-administrator?
- How do we set the 'global' (or default) option to disable the auto update checkbox for ALL users? No matter what we try, when a new user logs in, the auto update feature is still enabled after their initial profile is generated from the first time login.
I was able to figure out if I change the "EnableJavaUpdate" value in the below registry key, it will "remove" the Update tab from the JAVA Control Panel. But does the simply remove the tab? Or does it remove the tab AND disable auto updates for ALL users on the computer?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy
I've sent multiple emails to Sun asking for help on what should be a simple thing to do, but have never received a reply from them.
Keith Hemmelman

Thank you for the reply. I apologize for not getting back here sooner.
We actually already use a deployment.properties file located under the Default User profile on our Vista setup. It's located under the "C:\Users\Default\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment" folder. This file does get copied over to a new user profile when a new person logs in. This is what we want since we have set things like the maximum cache size and temporary file location.
The problem though is there is no setting that disables the automatic update check within this file. The best I can figure out is that for some reason under the Vista environment, the auto update setting is controlled in the registry at: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Java Update\Policy
There is a REG_BINARY key there that appears to control this option. It is named "EnableAutoUpdateCheck". The problem is that the value of this key is "several" characters long and it is "different" from one user to the next. I tried disabling auto update under the Java Control Panel and then copied the value of this key into the same aread of the Default User hive but when a new user logs in, it ignores that setting and auto update is still enabled. I also tried using a simple "0" to disable the autoupdate or a "1" to enable it for this key, but it doesn't work either. (This is very frustrating why there isn't a simple 1 or 0 setting to turn the auto update setting on/off.)
We had no problem getting this to work under XP. Basically we didn't have to do anything special in XP. We simply created a temporary user account and made all the settings we wanted and then copied that profile over to our Default User profile and the Java autoupdate setting under the Java Control Panel was disabled for all new users. We did the same thing under Vista, but the auto update setting was ignored and re-enabled for all new users.
I read through the settings for the deployment.properties file located at the below link, but there is nothing there to control the auto update setting.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html
Thus, we can't get the auto update setting to be disabled in the default user profile so it will in turn be disabled for all new users that log into the computer. This is extremely frustrating.
The other equally frustrating problem we have run into under the Vista environment is that when you run the Java Control Panel, the option to disable the auto update check is "grayed out" and the user can't uncheck this option to disable auto update. We have found you must be an administrator before this option is no longer grayed out. Since none of our thousands of users are admins, this is also a problem for us. (This option works fine for a standard user if you are on a XP machine though. It's just Vista where things have changed.)
I've sent repeated emails to Sun in the past asking for help, but they never replied.

How do I disable the itunes auto-update for all users?

I need to know if there is a way to disable the auto-update feature for all users that login to a windows XP computer.
I have disabled it for the account currently logged in as well as copy that user profile to the "default user" profile. However I have about 300 users that do not have admin rights that still get prompted to install updates.
Is there a way to disable the auto update as the default for all users. So that only I get the auto update notifications?

Bump -
No responses in over a week?
Does no one else run a network where users don't have admin rights?

Impact on roaming profile accounts if we Change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts

I want to understand if we change User logon Name to Employee Number format in Active Directory for all User accounts, then what would be the impact on existing profile. Whether we need to change it manualy or it will connect to same profiles in terminal
session.
As i observed it create new profile after logon name changed to employee number where existing users profile settings get fails to load and prompt for new settings (such as outlook reconfiguration, share drive mapping etc.).
Kindly let me know the proper process to overcome with this, how to connect same existing roaming profile with employee number format change.

Hi,
What if we change the user name of user account, will it have impact on roaming profiles.
Yes, it will affect roaming profiles. Please rename the roaming profile folder as the new user account name, in addition, change the profile path in ADUC.

How to Enable Auto-Complete for All users on Terminal Server

Hello,
I have 4 Microsoft 2003 Terminal Servers, and I want to enable Auto-Complete for all users, and I am unable to find a way to do this. I have tried creating a custom install of Adobe Reader, and installing that, but it isn't working. Ideas anyone?
Thanks in advanced

Acrobat is not permitted to run as a server process.
Licenses are assigned to individual users, each of whom must have their own serialized copy.

I am trying to get Menu Editor 1.2.7 to work globally for all users. I have added the .xpi to the extensions folder and it is not being installed auto-magically.

I would like to have Menu Editor installed for all users. I attempted to put the .xpi file in c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\extensions with the expectation that the user would be prompted to install.

You need to rename the XPI file to the (GU)ID of the extension as listed in the file install.rdf or just install the extension in a profile and copy the file or folder from that profile to the extensions folder.

ADE suddenly quit working for all users on my Vista computer. What should I do?

Please help.
Adobe Digital Editions quit working for all users on my Wndows Vista computer after I tried several times to install a book that wouldn't install. The book is one of three I recently purchased even though the other two installed with no problem. Other books were already installed.
I uninstalled and re-installed ADE with the latest version and tried again after clearing out the "My Digital Editions" folders by moving the contents elsewhere. The same problem occurs with all users on my computer.
The program runs showing no books or bookshelves despite contents in the "My Digital Editions" folder. If I try to "Add to Library," the program shuts down and shows nothing- not even an error message when re-run. Even though I'm only able to create a bookshelf, no bookshelf appers when the program is re-run.
I even tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing my computer.
What should I do?

HI
Whilst your Apple ID (presumably the @mac.com) may have been the original and been linked to @me.com at the MobileMe period and then to iCloud (@icloud.com) you need to keep to the same Apple ID through out (the iMessages server seems to treat them as different IDs to some extent).
In the Finder use the Go Menu > Go to Folder and enter ~/Library/Preferences
Find and Drag to the Trash com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist
On the iPhone remove those emails that are not the Apple ID in use.
On Restarting the Mac version you will have to re-enter the Apple ID.
If you then restart again you should get the pop ups to say what the iPhone is using (linking the iPhone number to the Apple ID)
Once you enable Text Forwarding on the iPhone then the Mac Version should generate and show you the Code to then enter in the iPhone's dialogue box to pair the devices.
If each Contact is turning red as you try to Send and reporting that the Contact is "Not Registered with iMessages" then you have a different issue.
This is caused by a partial login to the iMessages server and it seems it is one of those that only contacting Apple Support and saying you have an Account issue with the iMessages server from your Mac can it get sorted. (make sure you say it is an Account issue)
Of course it is the iPhone that is actually sending the SMS messages so it does need to have Carrier service at this point.

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users Hi, I would like to set some settings in Analyzer as default for all users. For example: 1. Display | Char 2. right mouse click on char | Chart Properties 3. Axes tab 4. "Format: Currency" i would like to change to "Format: Number". How to set default values to all users? Is this possible? Thanks, Grofaty

I'm pretty sure higher access superceedes, so you could set up a group with no actual access, just to get the preferences working, then their individual security will dictate what they can do. I haven't tested this fully, but I beleive this is how it will work. As far as setting the preferences, go into the admin console and right click on the group, then select Preferences. To apply the group preferences to a user, add the user to the group, then right click on the user, select preferences and from the upper left corner, use the drop down to select the active preference, in this case, it will be the group you created and added them to.

How to Create a Auto Generated number with some preceding text in Sharepoint 2010

I am trying to create a auto generated number field in Sharepoint 2010 list item. My requirement is to have the following format number generated when new request is created in Sharepoint using form. Auto generated Ticket ID should be in the following format
"IR13000" "IR13001" "IR13002"....... Please let me know how to get this done. I tried to use combination of default ID and Characters but its not working for new requests, its only reflecting for existing uploaded requests. I
am trying this for taking up Ticket requests by filling up some fields in the form. Any quick help is much appreciated.
Thanx

Here are the steps:
1 - Open your SharePoint site in SP Designer 2010.
2 - Click Workflows and add a List workflow. Associate this workflow on the list where you want the Random Text to be generated.
3 - Inside the workflow editor, select the Action "Update list item"
4 - Select 'Current Item'.
5 - Click Add.. and select the field which needs to be updated with the Random Text. Make sure this column is not of type "Calculated" type, otherwise you won't see it in the list of the fields within the workflow.
6 - Click "..." button in the next textbox which will open String Builder dialog box.
7 - Type IR and then click 'Add or Change Lookup and select ID column from "Field from source". Hit OK.
8 - It should look like IR[%Current Item:ID%]
9 - Hit OK.
10 - Save and publish the workflow. (Please note that currently this workflow is not set to auto run on creating new items. That's because we want to test it at this point of time).
11 - Go to your list in SharePoint and create a new item. After creating, select the item and click Workflows and then run this workflow.
12 - You should be able to see the text "IR1" in the designated column.
13 - Once you see that it's working, go to SPD and set the workflow to run automatically on creation of the new item. Save and publish and then return to your list in SharePoint.
14 - Create a new item there and you should see the Random value in the column.
15 - You will also see the column in the New form. In order to remove it, go to List settings > content types > Item content type > and select Hidden for this column so that it doesn't showup in any form.
Try it and let me know how it goes.
Thanks,

SNR License Issue. How Can I Disable SNR for all Users?

Hi,
I Have an issue with SNR on CUCM 10.5 and with assignement of license type
I have a cluster with 400 users.
200 users use ip phone 3905 and should be use an Essential License.
When system check for assignement of license type , itassign a Basic License instead of an Essential License, because it see that users have SNR Enabled.
All users in my system have SNR enabled, and I can not disable it. All my user have Enable Mobility unchecked, and all my phone have Device Mobility Off, but system however see SNR enable.
How can i disable SNR for all users? This is a feature that client don't need.
I dont' have a sufficent number of licenses for support all 3905 in Basic License.
thanks for help.
Andrea

Well actually, Mobile Identity wouldn't apply to a 3905 unless those phones had another line on a Dual-Mode device like an iPhone or Android phone. So unless you have either of those in your system you can scratch that idea. Someone else may chime in here and try to help a bit more as RD/RDP are the main SNR culprits.

Multiple Business Partner Number for every User

Hi,
For ages the program HRALXSYNC was failing in our system, so via help from an OSS note we have got it running correctly now. The problem is now that it's created a new BP number for ALL of our Users, so they can not edit old Purchase numbers, etc... So the Business Manager has asked me to find out how we can amend these details on Mass prior to them being inundated with calls.
Is this possible?
Any help i would be grateful!

Hi,
The integration settings are maintained in the below path

Silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 for ALL users?

We ship an installer that does a silent install of SQL Server 2008r2 with all the 'right' parameters pre-configured. We use this:
/QS /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQL,BC,Conn,ADV_SSMS /SAPWD=MyPasswordGoesHere /SECURITYMODE=SQL /TCPENABLED=1 /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN /SQLSVCSTARTUPTYPE=Automatic /SQLSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
However, the problem is that if a tech installs it for another user, that user does not have access, since ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN flag only adds the user who installed it -- rather than adding ALL users on the computer. (Or at least all admins.)
I tried replacing ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN with this:
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\ADMINISTRATORS"
but that also failed to work. How can we install for all users, or at least all administrators?
NOTE: we do NOT know the name of the computer or the users. The installer has to work for any computer setup.
Similar question has already been asked, but wasn't helpful:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/8354675f-be9b-4909-b776-942f03954807/how-to-do-a-silent-install-of-sql-2010-express-for-all-users-on-a-computer?forum=sqlexpress
The documentation does not make it clear what you can pass as allowed SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS parameters. I also am not sure if I would need to change the AGTSVCACCOUNT or SQLSVCACCOUNT?

I tried one more thing:
/SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
which does not halt installation with an error.
However, doing:
osql -E
create database test
go
in a command prompt from a different admin user on the same machine results in a permissions error... but works if done from a command prompt on the user account from which MSSQLServer was installed.
So for some reason /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators" does not work as expected.
Anyone have any idea why?
I checked the output log from the install, and found it had generated and used a configurationFIle to do the install. I looked in that file, and these were the settings, even though I did NOT pass /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN as a command line option:
; Windows account(s) to provision as SQL Server system administrators.
SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="BUILTIN\Administrators"
; The default is Windows Authentication. Use "SQL" for Mixed Mode Authentication.
SECURITYMODE="SQL"
; Provision current user as a Database Engine system administrator for SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN="True"
