Backup corporate Macs to Windows server

Very simple task, very difficult to solve. I hope someone can recommend a software that most closely meets this requirements.
I need to backup approx. 50 Macs to one of our Windows servers. All users have their domain accounts to access the shared folders. I need a backup software that will, once configured, backup specific folders, not whole system image, to the Windows share (needs SMB support). It can be commercial solution. Our Mac users are not technologically educated, and software needs to run itself once IT configures it. Some scheduling maybe?
For Windows users we have simple log-on script that copies custom folders to mapped drive. Now I need an alternative for Macs.
Please advice,
Milos

I just tested trial version of Super Flexible File Synchronizer (such a lame name..).
It works flawlesly. I made it work on logon, after first making share folder mapped after restart. Has all the granulatity with selecting folders. Can also store logs at server share, which is another feature I needed.
I recommend it to anyone with similar demands!

    Hello,
    Beginner's question: How to backup my VMs on an external
    USB disk?
    NB: I'm running Windows Server 2008 R2. It's a test machine, don't care with downtime. I want to backup only the VM (VHD files and VM configuration, not the whole server)
    Thanks

    How to end this loop? please help. Thanks for considering my question ...

    Hello Ebttikar,
    Please try clean boot then test how the issue goes. Following are the detailed steps about clean boot:
    Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
    Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start the System Configuration Utility.
    On the General tab, click Selective Startup, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
    On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.
    Click OK, Choose Don’t show this message again and then click Restart.
    Please check if RDP session issue is still the same.
    Please let me know the result.

  • Mac in Windows server environment with SMB shares

    Hello Apple Support Community,
    This is my first post here, so take it easy on me.
    Here is a brief background before I explain the problem. I'm currently in an environment that has about 35 various Mac computers (Mac Pros, iMacs, Mac Book Pros, etc) from many different generations, but all running 10.8.2 or newer. The enviornment also has several Dell Servers running various OS versions (2003 Std, 2008 Std, and one 2012 Storage Server). Active Directory is currently in place and healthy. The 2012 Storage Server is where we are hosting all of the file shares. Users are connecting to these shares via smb.
    We are experincing two problems that may or may not be related.
    Problem #1
    Occasionally (I have yet to find consistency), when we drag and drop a folder from one location to the other (on the same server, in the same share, and usually source and destination reside in the same parent folder) or if we rename a folder, we'll be prompt for credentials with the message "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this."
    Since our local username and password are different then the Active Directory username and password used to connect to the share, I have observed that usually typing in the local username and password allows this prompt to go away. Any other username or password does not work. However, once the prompt goes away, the folder never actually moves on the share or is renamed. This prompt for a password will repeat over and over until you go away, do something else in a different folder, then come back after a while, then it won't prompt you for a password for the same move or rename operation.
    I thought this might be related to permissions at first as we just migrated the data from an old Mac Server to this new 2012 Storage Server, but I have since replicated the scenario with a test share and a series of test subfolders that I just created (no files were involved in the test, just folders). I have also opened permissions to everyone for both the share and the folder structure for this test.
    Problem #2
    Similar to the scenario above, but rather than moving or renaming a folder or file, when we attempt to delete a folder it will occasionally pretend to delete, then appear back in the share as a folder that no one has permissions to. If you navigate away for a while and then return, the folder has actually been removed.
    If anyone has any insight as to why we might be experiencing any of this behavior or direction for how to troubleshoot or solve this, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Thanks!

    Hello?
    Anyone?
    Bueller...Bueller....Bueller
    It's been a couple of weeks now and no one has any input to help me? Is there something I can provide to get some additional help?
    I've done some research over the past couple of weeks and ran into an article (sorry, I have misplaced the source) that indicated adding the Mac to the windows domain would help with Problem #1 by providing single sign-on functionality. I bound all of the macs in the network to the domain and changed all of the user profiles from local to domain. They are now logging in with their domian credentials. For the most part, this appears to have solved the problem. I will find out more tomorrow as there appears to still be one user experiencing the same behavior even after adding his Mac to the domain and having him log in with his domain account and credentials.
    This is, however, how the problem started in the first place. It began with just this one user reporting the problem, then eventually everyone was having the problem. I'm no longer feeling confident that this has actually solved the problem.
    I've implemented ExtremeZ-IP on the storage server and have redirected the users to using AFP again. This appears to have solved Problem #2.
    We now have two additional problems showing up on the network.
    Problem #3
    Occasionally (again, having a hard time finding any consistency), after opening a file and working on it for a while, we are being presented with an error that a file cannot be written to. Once the error shows up, the problem is persistent. You can save the file as a different name in the same location, and it will take without error. You just can't save the file with the same name. It's as if the file is locked. If I reboot the windows server at the end of the day, the file that was locked no longer has a problem being written to.
    We also see this problem with moving/renaming folders on occasion.
    Problem #4
    Users are reporting that files in a folder sometimes do not appear (the folder appears as blank), but appear fine for others.
    I have seen this issue when users connect with different protocols (one with smb and the other with afp - the smb connected user usually doesn't see the file) but in the process of changing profiles from domain to local, I have switched all users to AFP.
    I could really use some help with this situation. Anything this community has to offer, suggest, or otherwise help me find resolution would be extremely appreciated.

  • Networked Macs see Windows server, but suddenly not the internet

    My girlfriend works at a small business running about 10 PCs and a Windows server. Also on the network are about 15 VOIP telephones. She's had an emac on the network working fine for a few months. It was connecting to the server and the to the internet. Then one day, no more internet. (None of the PCs are experiencing this problem.) Coincidentally, the next day a new Mini arrived. We set it up (to 10.4.3) and it saw the server, it saw the internet. Everything was beautiful and then poof. No more internet. It was working when she left work, it even received POP mail between her leaving last night and coming in this morning.
    (I don't think this is the culprit, but it's worth mentioning that first thing this morning, she installed Microsoft Office. After she installed Office, the internet no longer worked. She didn't check her internet connection before installing the new software, but I suspect this is not a related issue. The emac does not have Office installed at all.)
    The macs have been restarted and put to sleep and then woken up. All of the PCs get their internet connection after routing through the VOIP phones and so do the macs. We've taken the phone out of the equation, but still no luck.
    Sorry this is such a vague description of the problem, but I don't know so much about inter-platform networking, so I'm not sure what to look for. And I don't know anything about TCP/IP or other networking protocols, so if there are any clues in the packets, I wouldn't see them. The most puzzling thing here is that it was working fine, and after seemingly nothing has changed, now it's not.
      Mac OS X (10.4.3)   macs on a PC network

    It looks like your getting an address okay. Have you tried out a variety of applications to see if it only happens on certain ones? (eg, web browser but not iTunes) If it's okay to run that at work, anyway
    Some explanations of the gibberish below:
    en0: That's the short name for your network card. If you have multiple cards or other manufacturers this can be different but it's fairly standard. There will also be another device called lo0 displayed usually. This is called a loopback device and points to you machine. It will have the address 127.0.0.1 It's a good way to test servers or other things running on your machine, by connecting to that address. It's not really useful in this case, but knowledge is power
    The flags indicate what the status of the network card is. It's up, and running normally for most networks. The mtu setting indicates the size of packets of data transmitted by your network card. 1500 is fairly common, but some networks or ISPs may note a smaller size in their support pages. If no one has been monkeying with your network recently, assume this is okay.
    inet6 is support for the eventual switch to a better internet addressing standard. nothing to worry about here.
    inet 192.168.50.54 is you address on the local network. So you're getting an IP at least. If a Windows machine on the network has taken that address as well, that can cause problems. It shouldn't happen, but it does occasionally. The windows box will typically spit up a warning dialog on the screen pretty quickly if that happens. I haven't run into it on my mini yet so I'm not sure if Internet Connect will pop up the icon with the lightning symbol or nor.
    The netmask is a hexidecimal number showing the range or "scope" that your subnet (the area of the network you're in) occupies. FFFFFF80 is equal to 255.255.255.128. In this case it means that your subnet is restricted to a range of 127 addresses. If your address and the address of your internet gateway weren't in that range together you'd have a problem, because they wouldn't recognize each other as being part of the same subnet.
    But the broadcast address would indicate that they are. Both fit within the range of 192.168.50.1 and 192.168.50.127
    If those machines couldn't see each other then instead of your 192.168.x.x address, you'd see the 169.x.x.x address I mentioned, and would be off the network.
    So, now that you've been bombarded with all that, it looks like you're okay on the local network so now the task is finding out why you can't see out.
    Try a few different apps and see if they succeed, like running the software update, etc. If they work, then it's possible your browsers may need to be configured to use a proxy server to get to the net. That's a lesson for later
    Here's my ifconfig info:
    en0:
    flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAS
    T> mtu 1500

    I don't see any "169" , but I don't really have any
    idea what else is going on here. Any help would be
    really appreciated. It's so frustrating when you
    finally get a Mac in a PC office and then it doesn't
    work.

  • Mac Mini Window Server Crash randomly

    I am using mini since around one year connected to 2 x 22" displays. It's a 09(3,1) model upgraded with 8G of RAM + OCZ SSD.
    Since a while I started to have issues with WIndow Server crash. In general Mini became unstable lately, but I can live with Safari or Adium crashes, really can't afford Window Server crashes since that is my primary working machine and I do run lot of ssh sessions during the day.
    At first, the crashes occurred mainly upon idle time, but lately they started to be more than annoying. I would not like to change the hardware yet since one year for a workstation hardware is not yet enough to be replaced.
    Here are just recent system crashes logs:

    I would like to point out here, that I use several mac machines (MBP, MBA, iMAC and Mac Pro) and mini is the only one which such problems.
    I would greatly appreciate any help on the subject.
    Cheers,
    /Jacek

    Hi Jacek,
    We have a late 2010 Mac Mini Server which after some weeks started to crash randomly. It hung the system with everything frozen, clock stopped, etc. When the summer heat came with room temperature up to 29 °C the Mac Mini became more severely affected by the crashes. Once it could run five weeks without a crash. Later it crashed even during the boot process. Sometimes it could crash five times or more in a day even without any load on it.
    I left it for Apple service and they told me a faulty Airport circuit board could make these crashes and replaced it.
    However, as soon as the Mac Mini went back to work the same old crashes appeared again.
    With the Mac came a "Diagnostics EFI 3X107" which could be copied to an USB and booted from USB. This will test a lot of things in the Mac. Now it crashed repeated times always within 18 minutes!
    The server was returned to Apple service. Now they said they have replaced the whole CPU and logic board. Today we will collect it and give it a try again.
    Maybe you have the same problem?

    I have been trying to configure the MAC Authentication on Windows Server Network Policy Server but no success. Details on my configuration can be find below.
    I have firstly enabled the Mac Authentication on 3com switch 4400 model.
    enabling  -> Mac-authentication
    enabling authentication mode -> UsernameAsMacAddress
    configuring a domain - mac-authentication domain abc.local.

    password: 00-00-00-00-00-00
    Lastly on the NPS Server, I configured the 802.1x Wired configuration, I configured the NAS (Radius Client) whici is the 3com Switch.
    After completing the configurations, I turned on my computer with and logged on to the domain abc\00-00-00-00-00-00 with the password. But there was no success when the computer tried to connect to the network looking for DHCP services to obtain IP address.

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post.
    MAC address authorization is performed when the user does not type in any user name or password, and refuses to use any valid authentication method. In this case, Network Policy Server (NPS) receives the Calling-Station-ID attribute, and no user name and
    password. To support MAC address authorization, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) must have user accounts that contain MAC addresses as user names.
    For more detailed information about MAC Address Authorization, please refer to the below article. Hope it helps.

  • VPN Connectivity from Mac to Windows Server

    I have been using Windows OS all my life, now I recently bought a new Mac machine, and it my first time using Mac OSX Lepord, so I don't no much, I tried to connect my Mac to a VPN - windows using the mac VPN Connectivity provided which uses tunneling Protocol, I am successful in establishing connectivity to windows server, but the problem is, it still uses ip address assigned by the router while rowsing, and not the ip address of the VPN machine while browsing sites, the reason I use VPN connectivity is to bypass ISP who blocks most of the useful sites. I tried to set proxy setting in my safari browser, but failed and also automatic proxy does not work, can someone hep me and tell me how to achieve what I am trying to achieve using MAc.

    exero –
    Though this will be a pain it will help trace down the problem.
    Since you are attempting to VPN to the SBS what happens if you connect the Mac locally dose RDP connection map the drives and can you map to the SBS shares directly?
    What happens if you try connecting with a PC via the VPN?
    Also (though risky) I would open all the ports on your firewall that point to the SBS and try connecting to the VPN again with Mac and see what happens. (Don’t forget to close them back).
    Below are two links that may provide some additional information. The first is from Microsoft and list all of the ports used by MS products. The second one is a public post that focuses on SBS 2003.

  • Please help - Connection Refused - Mac to Windows Server 2012

    I have downloaded MS Remote Desktop onto my brand new Macbook Air OS X and have tried to connect to my school network - which when logged in says it is "Windows Server2012"
    However each time I try to log in it simply says connections refused.  Nothing more.
    Not sure what I can do next.
    Thank you for any help,

    Hi Laura,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Are you trying to remote desktop with IP address or hostname?
    Please try both alternate way and check is there any difference between them. Also as suggested by Manouchehr Omari, please see that you have remote desktop enabled on server 2012 and related RDP port (3389) opened for remote connection to take place under
    firewall setting. If possible for a try disable firewall and check. You can get more troubleshooting information from beneath link.

  • IPP Printing from Linux or Mac to Windows server

    I have windows server 2003 R2 ent with ipp printing installed. All windows clients are ale to connect, install and print to a shared printer via ipp. When connecting via a linux or mac machine, I am not able to print. I am asked for the creditionals to print but it does nothing.
    The ipp server is set to accept authentication via Intergrated Windows Authentication. I had read this is compatible with firefox and other browsers.
    Is there any particular settings I am missing on this one?
    The goal is to require only domain users access to the printers.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting here.
    Since we can print from Windows clients properly, it indicates Windows Printing Server is working OK. Base on my research, we may have to setup a CUPS server so that Linux client communicate with CUPS Server and CUPS communicate with Windows Printer Server using IPP. For your reference:
    HowTo: Print to a Windows Print Server from a Linux Client.

  • [Forum FAQ] Cannot perform a backup schedule via Windows Server Backup and receive "The system cannot find the path specified." Error

    Symptom One
    You attempt to
    schedule a backup every day via Windows Server Backup on Windows Server 2008 R2. At the beginning, the backup works without issue. But after a few days it failed and you receive the error “Windows Server Backup:
    The system cannot find the path specified.”
    Cause
    The issue may occur if there is
    no shadow copy storage space available on the backup volume.
    Verify
    You can use the List ShadowStorage command to check if you have enough storage space to store the newly created shadow copy. If you've reviewed the size of the backup snapshot and discovered
    that there is no allocated space for the storage association, you need to resize shadowstorage.
    Solution
    You could run the command below to create shadow copy storage space on the backup volume:
    vssadmin resize
    shadowstorage /for=<ForVolumeSpec> /on=<OnVolumeSpec> [/maxsize=<MaxSizeSpec>]
    More Information
    Vssadmin resize shadowstorage
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc788050.aspx
    Symptom Two
    When you add
    another external hard drive to backup schedule via Windows Server Backup on Windows Server 2012, it fails and you receive the error “The System cannot find the path specified.”
    Cause
    The issue is due to the
    Original Destination Disk was not attached to the server.
    Verify
    You could check the disk status in Disk Management to see if the Original Destination Disk is offline or removed.
    Solution
    You need to attach
    Original Destination Disk to the Server then choose another external hard drive as backup target. After that, you could remove the Original Destination Disk.
    Workaround
    To work around this issue, please use the WBADMIN command line tool to add disk.
    WBADMIN ENABLE BACKUP -addtarget :{ DiskID}
    The AddTarget parameter takes disk ID as parameter. It can be retrieved by running "WBADMIN GET DISKS" command.
    Example:
    WBADMIN ENABLE BACKUP
    -addtarget :{ aa123d14-bba0-1dd9-0d93-80aaaa6bbb63}
