Backing up the server to a large drive on a client computer.

Hi,
I'm running a small network with a Windows 2012 Server Essentials server and 8 client computers running Windows 7 pro. One of my client computers is located in the building adjacent to the server home building some 200ft away. This computer is hard wired
into the network and functions fine. I installed a large secondary hard drive onto this computer and shared it with the network. It's visible and accessible to the network. I'd like to configure Windows Backup to backup the server each day to the secondary
hard drive, however I'm having trouble configuring Backup. It seems that Backup only wants to back up to an external hard drive connected to the server with a USB connection. Please advise me how, if it's even possible, to configure Backup to back up the the
client computer. Will I have to invest in a 3rd party software to accomplish this? If I need additional backup software can you reccommend one?
Thank you for your input.

Hi,
It is supported to backup to a network share. See:
Configure Automatic Backups to a Remote Shared Folder
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd851825.aspx
However a possible problem is that it will only keep 1 copy when we back up to a network location.
A possible workaround is to backup with command line and use a wild-cast like:
wbadmin start backup -backuptarget:\\computer\share\"%date%" -systemstate - include:x:
I will create different folders instead of overwriting the original one.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

How do you move POP3 email from the iPhone back to the server or computer?

Is there any way to get email that was downloaded to the iPhone using POP3 back on the server or computer? (other than resending all the mail)

You're welcome.
Although it is possible to access a POP account with more than one email client, a POP account is really designed to be accessed with a single email client only.
I access a MobileMe account and a business POP account with the iPhone's mail client. Since an IMAP account is designed to be accessed with more than one email client keeping all server stored mailboxes synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account, accessing an IMAP account with the iPhone's mail client is much more preferable to me. All sent messages are available with each email email client used to access the account. Read a received message with the iPhone's mail client and the message will be marked as read automatically when checking the account with the email client on my computer and vice-versa. I create additional server stored mailboxes to store received and sent messages by category and I can transfer messages from the account's Inbox or Sent mailbox to the designated server stored mailbox with the iPhone's mail client, with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
If messages were removed from the server with the email client used on your computer to access the account - transferred to a mailbox stored locally on your hard drive, you can transfer the messages back to the designated server stored mailbox.
Need to delete and recreate the account with your iPhone's mail client, or need to restore your iPhone with iTunes, all messages that don't remain on the server will be lost with a POP account including all messages sent with the account from the iPhone - which can be stored locally on the iPhone only unless you always Bcc yourself with every sent message.
Delete and recreate an IMAP account with the iPhone's mail client and all server stored mailboxes and the messages within will be available again automatically.
IMAP account access is the way to go with the iPhone IMO.

There was an error while writing data back to the server: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder.

Post Author: dmface15
CA Forum: Administration
I am working in a new enviorment and i am trying to save a report to the Crystal Server via the CMC. I am uploading the report from the objects tab and attempting to save to a folder. The report has 1 static defined parameter and that's it. When i click submit to save the report i receive the following error message: "There was an error while writing data back to the server: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder." There is not a anothe report within the folder with that name. What could be causing this error message and equally important, what is the solution.

hte message you received about duplicate user probably means something hadn't fully updated yet. Once it did then it worked...

How to put messages back on the server

by accident, I set up an account that deleted received messages from teh server. I believe that I set this up as a pop account. Is it possible to put messages back on the server? I couldn't see an option for this and it is important that I be able to check these messages via webmail.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Before doing anything, I encourage you to make a backup copy of the entire ~/Library/Mail folder, in case something goes wrong (quit Mail first). You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
You cannot have two accounts of the same type in Mail with the same username and incoming mail server. You can, however, set up two mail accounts with the same username and incoming mail server IF the account type is different.
That is, if you really did set up this account as POP, you can set it up also as IMAP in Mail without deleting the POP account first. You should, however, disable Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Include when automatically checking for new mail (but keep Enable this account checked) for the POP account, to avoid it interfering with the IMAP account. You can then move any messages to the mailboxes of the IMAP account where you want them to be.
EDITED: The above assumes that the provider of this account allows you to access it as either POP or IMAP, and that you chose POP by mistake. If POP is your only option and the mistake is just that the account was configured to remove messages from the server when in fact you didn't want to do that, then that's a different problem...
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.

Is there a way to install the server on an external drive connected to an airport extreme?

Is there a way to install the server on an external drive connected to an airport extreme?

If you want a small (comparatively) cheap server along the lines of the AirPort Extreme the nearest thing is a Mac mini.
You can use the AirPort Extreme as a very basic file server, and (unofficially) a Time Machine server. A Time Capsule has a built-in hard disk and officially supports being a Time Machine server.

ACS: Resource not found or internal server error ErrorCode: 500 has occured. Click here to get back to the server

i have installed cisco acs server 5.3 and applied an eval license. when i am going to define an authorization rule in access policy, i can find and predefined rules and i can not create any rule of my own. if i do any thing i get this error message.
ACS: Resource not found or internal server error
ErrorCode: 500 has occured. Click here to get back to the server
can any one please help me on this.

Anyone know of what could be causing this problem, when using a supported browser?
We are running ACS version 5.3.0.40.9 (appliance).
We are using IE 8. When using ACS, everything works fine for a period of time, and then at (seemingly) random times, we will suddenly get the "ACS: Resource not found or internal server error". The only way to get working again is to log out of ACS and log back in.
Also, we seem to get logged out at random times, even while active and in the middle of updating something. Sometimes we receive the message that our session has timed out and other times we are simply dropped back to the login screen, with no error or timeout message. Either way, it happens while we are definitely active and working...not a logout due to inactivity.
This is all with IE8. Any ideas?
TIA

Saving a file back to the server

Hi All,
Well...I have opened a .pdf file from a server (Tomcat).Typical hyperlink on which I click and the pdf opens.I make changes to it.I have the acrobat writer installed on my machine.And now I want to save these changes (or the file) back to the server from where it opened.
How will I do it?
I hope some onez there to help me.
Thanx a lot in advance

You can't do this directly, and for a very good reason - you wouldn't want any- and everybody writing files on your server, would you?
What you can do is to write a servlet that accepts the file as input, and saves it away in the required place. How you write that is a bit beyond a quick answer.
To get the document to the servlet, the quickest and dirtiest way is to use <input type="file" ...> from an HTML file. This will attach the document to the request. AFAIK, this only works in IE, though. Otherwise, you can write an HTTP client that posts the document. Again, this is beyond the scope of this answer.

How can I submit the form back to the server, then reload the page again

Hi
I have 2 comboboxes, one is already populated with data by the time the page is loaded. The second combobox will be populated depending on the value chosen from the first combobox
I need to know how can submit the form to go back to the server with the selected value from the first combobox, get some data from the database and then regenerate the whole page again filling the second combobox with the collected data
for example, here s my select tag:
<select name="country" id="firstBox" onchange="populateSecondList()">
     <option value="" SELECTED>
     </select>
<select name="city" id="firstBox">
     <option value="">
     </select>
what should I have to add in the retrieveSecondOptions() function?

declare a second combo box in a iframe and to iframe tag there is attribute to which you can sepcify the file name like one.jsp
now call onchange event on first combo box and forward request to one.jsp

How do I back up the music and apps etc. I restored my computer and I reinstalled iTunes, I was told something about a terminal command line, what does that mean? Please help

How do I back up the music and apps etc. I restored my computer and I reinstalled iTunes, I was told something about a terminal command line, what does that mean? Please help

- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer any other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup. The restore will also update the iOS.
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music
Are you sure you have a 3G iPod? A 1G iPod can only go to iOS 3.1.3
See:

Need help restoring a C: (boot) drive on a client computer

What is the best way to restore the c: drive on a client computer? The SSD died so I have to start with a new drive. Can I plug the new drive into another client that is working and restore the drive from there? Or, do I need to install
the OS on the new SSD first and then attempt a restore?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

If your old SSD drive died and you will add new drive to the system. You need to install windows on it. You can only clone the SSD's if the original drive is working. You should add the new SSD in to the computer built it and once up and running if the died
SSD access able copy the data across.

Backing up the build-in Time capsule drive ...

Hello all,
I am not interested in time machine at all and would like to use the build in hard drive of TC as a regular network drive for common data.
Does anybody knows how this can be backed up in an efficient way? Would it be possible to copy the data from the build in drive directly to an USB connected drive of TC? Or would I need to push all data thru the network in order to copy any data from the build in to an external drive?
Thx for your information!

Not sure I agree that "backing up the backup is overkill for the average consumer".
I am certainly the average consumer. I bought the TC simply to be able to wirelessly backup my 2 laptops (macbook pro and macbook). I had 2 500g external drives with wires running around my computer area that drove me and my better half nuts. TC was a perfect solution.
That being said, having "extra" space on the TC to use as a network drive sealed the deal for me. I had just upgraded my MB drive from 80 to 160g, and frankly was starting to get close to the ceiling. All I ahve is music, family photos and family video on the drive. I dont do any high-end video editing (Ie, i use iMovie, not Final Cut Express or Pro).
Offloading my itunes library (about 20gig) and my iPhoto library (also, about 20 gig) plus my iMovie events (about 30 gig) was very appealing to me. However, not having the ability to back those items up easily is annoying. When I say easily, I mean as easy as the TC backs up my 2 laptops. I have those 2 500g HD's hooked up into the TC via a USB Hub. I would like the software to be intelligent enough that it could look at attached volumes and back them up.
I could easily put the data mentioned above on one of those 500g externals, hook it up to the USB, and it still wouldnt back up unless I did a drag-and-drop copy to the TC.
So ... the average consumer wants a bit more functionality and security. If I have data on an external drive, I want that data backed up to my TC. I'd also like to have data on my TC and have that backup to a USB attached drive.
Probably too much to ask .. but it's what i want.

The server "Our Time Capsule" is available on your computer.

I cannot access my Time Capsule over the network no matter what I do (connect to server smb/afp, or in finder.) I know it's something to do with my macbook (5,1 unibody, 10.6.1) as all the other computers (win/mac) can connect just dandy. I don't want to go deleting a bunch of preferences without consulting others first.
I've verified permissions and I get this:
Verify permissions for “Macintosh HD”

I'm going to end up reinstalling Snow Leopard regardless, as I enabled the 64-bit kernel, but it didn't seem to like that as a few weeks later it gave me a question mark on several consecutive boots and then reverted to the 32-bit kernel ever since. However, the TC issue didn't happen immediately following that, and I haven't had any other complaints to speak of, so I'm not sure it's at all related. However, I'd like to know if anyone has an idea of how I could fix it, as it would be quite nice to make a Time Machine backup before reinstalling 10.6, yeah?
I appreciate any input, let me know if there's any more info I could supply that may help track it down.
Thank you.

Same problem.
More data: 10.5 iMac can reach 10.6.1 mini server. 10.6.1 mac Pro cannot. Server name shows up in sidebar under shared. Choosing gets "Connection failed." "Connect as..." is active. Disconnect is not shown. Trying either Connect as or Share Screen yields Connection failed The server "Name" is available on your computer. Access the volumes and files locally.
It won't connect and I can't reach a dialog screen to fill in information. 10.5 doesn't have a problem
Tried deleting keychain password items do to with the server. No change. Problem appears to be in 10.6 but useless error message and no help in help files because they presume things are working as they ought.
