Can RD for Administration be used to install RD Gateway?

Hello,
Have a Server 2008 R2 virtual machine running in a web hosting environment. The company has enabled Remote Desktop Administration and we have been using RD Connection to access the virtual server without any problem. However, due to firewall considerations
we would like to use RD Gateway with port 443 instead of the standard RD port 3389.
Perhaps this may be obvious, but if on a RD admin connection, is it possible to successfully install RD Gateway? For example, when you hit "Install" for the Gateway, will it automatically drop the existing RD admin connection?
The main concern right now is the we don't end up somehow locking ourselves out of RD altogether if the Gateway has install or config problems. Any insights are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Robert,
Thanks for the reply. Went ahead with the install accepting the defaults. Got the following result:
"Installation succeeded with errors.
Remote Desktop Services
   Error: The Internet Information Services (IIS) settings that are required for RD Gateway to function correctly could not be configured. To resolve this issue, open Remote Desktop Gateway Manager. When you open Remote Desktop Gateway Manager, it
verifies whether the IIS settings are correctly configured, and if the settings are not correctly configured, it configures the settings automatically.
   The following role services were installed:
   Remote Desktop Gateway"
Opened RD Gateway Manager, but didn't see any servers. Tried to manually connect but received:
"Unable to read RD Gateway Server Settings"
Not sure what to do next. Perhaps, this type of configuration with a pre-existing install of IIS is not supported.

  • Can emac installer discs be used to install OS 9.2.2 on Pismo G3?

    I have a full set of original eMac installer discs, and want to use one set to install OS9.2.2 on an Apple Pismo G3.
    Can this be done?
    I've heard Apple OEM installer discs are "Mac machine specific", and can't be used to install OS software onto other
    Apple Macs of a different model. But, I'm not sure if this is true, as there may be conflicting views on this subject.
    The OEM eMac discs I have are as follows:
    • Two (2) disc OEM set
       eMac OS X 10.4
       AHT version 2.5
       Disc version 1.1
       2Z691-5518-A
    • Five (5) disc set:
       eMac OS X and Mac OS 9
       Mac OS version 9.2.2
       CD version 1.0
       691-3981-A
    So the question is .... if OS X Tiger 10.4 has already been installed on the Pismo G3 .... can the above installer discs of (5) OS 9.2.2 be used to install OS 9.2.2 on the Pismo G3? 
    I would assume the Pismo G3 Hard drive would already have to have the OS9 drivers installed, during the OS 10.4 installation (showing an OS 9 "System Folder" on the HD, to be able to receive the OS 9.2.2 installer discs. I also understand that if installable, that the OS 9.2.2 would only open in the "Classic" mode.
    Any information as to if the above eMac OS 9.2.2 installer discs can be used to install OS 9.2.2 on the Pismo G3 ... would be appreciated.
    OR .... if other OS9.2.2 installer discs would be more appropiate, and if so, what model of Apple installer discs to use on the Pismo G3.

    dalstott:: 
    Below is the OS 9.2.2 "System Folder" that I was able to pull off the Number 1 - OEM eMac "Restore Sofware Disc". 
    It's obviously different than the first "System Folder" that I have, which I also showed above in a previous reply.
    Since the above is off the eMac OS 9.2.2 installer disc, this is the one I think would be more appropiate for copy/dragging to the Pismo G3 Hard Drive.
    Even though the Applications in the OS 9 Applications Folder are older, and probably not of much interest ... I also have the following "Applications (Mac OS 9)" folder, also taken off the eMac OS 9 installer disc. If I were to copy/drag this "Applications (Mac OS 9)" folder, to the Pismo G3 Hard Drive ... where do you think it should be placed?  In the OS 9.2.2 "System Folder" ... or separately on the main Hard Drive, with all the other main folders?
    Note: All these installer folders were "Invisable" disc folders, and only "viewable" using FileBuddy in Mountain Lion 10.8.5.

  • Can same os user be used to install all fusion middleware products?

    hi
    We are using "oracle" os user as database owner for R12 EBS.
    We now want to install collab suite & application server (AS) to later integrate these with EBS.
    Can we use the same "oracle" user to install colab & AS.
    Is it like each fusion middleware product should be installed with separate users or can be same.
    Thanks
    JIL

    Here's the real deal from Adobe's site:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331297.html
    It explains how to do an install from the command line that will install the Suite silently, and with the options you choose, you just have to copy the appropriate files, and create a .xml file to control it.
    You then push the file to the machines that need to install it and then send the Unix command to run it on them all.
    This is going into my Rollout plan for the next time, instead of doing it the slow way (Copy the installers all at once and start them one by one on each machine).
    Come to think about it, you could probably mount a remote volume, and then order the machines to run the installer from there (Only if you have a seriously robust network for the machines).
    Hope this helps anyone else that's not on a deadline that's already passed.

  • Asked for administrator password during mavericks install

    Trying to install Mavericks.  During installation, I was asked to provide my administrator password.  I've never had a password on my Mac before.   I've tried my usual suspects, but nothing works.  I'm confident I've never set up an administrator password before.  Anyone know how I can get around this--or at least give me some hints on how I can recover the password that I'm sure has never existed?

    OK. Now I understand. There are certain operations that can not be done from a non-admin account if the admin account password is blank. It's been this way for quite a while, but you probably just never happened to hit on it before this.
    It's a security thing...

    this breaks the jbo datatags datatable and rendervalue plus some custom code I have to get the formatted dates using HtmlServices.getAttributeStringValue(...)
    So is Simple Date Format broken in 10g? Is this the wrong way to go about view/entity formatting? I don't see what I could be doing wrong, this all works fine in 9.0.3.4, I am not including any old jars from 9.0.3.4 either...any ideas?

    Problem solved.
    I was including BC4J Generic Domains library in my project. Which contains yet another implemetation of oracle.jbo.domains.Date this one is not what we want to use :) The problem arose because the IDE detected the correct Date class while the embedded server chose the wrong one, so just removed that library and I was good to go. This problem also reared it's ugly head when I tried to use the infamous FlexiDate class and it complained that it couldn't find a constructor in it's superclass that took a byte array as input.

  • Setup for PDF printing using Embedded PL/SQL Gateway, 11G DB and APEX 3.1

    I've setup APEX on 11G using the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway. Its all working well.
    I've enabled Network Services and can see a couple of printers I've defined after running
    select * from DBA_NETWORK_ACLS;
    and also can see the FLOWS_030100 and FLOWS_030000 users when I run

    I have been through http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html and can see that I have a few choices ...
    * Oracle BI Publisher,
    * Apache FOP or
    * some other XSL-FO Processing Engine.
    I am not able to use Oracle BI Publisher ... license required:-( ... so that leaves the other two choices .. as I'm using the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway the Apache FOP is not an option ..
    that leaves other XSL-FO Processing Engine .. has anyone had any experience in this area .. and can give me a few pointers ...
    I'm kinda surprised I have little choice .. am I missing something?
    Regards
    Adam

    Adam,
    >> as I'm using the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway the Apache FOP is not an option
    Not a true statement. Using Oracle Containers for J2EE (10.1.3.2), as listed in that document you reference, is all you need to use Apache FOP. You don't know the full-blown Apache.

  • Can't install Exchange Gateway

    I'm trying to install the Exchange gateway on an Echange 2003 system. Have installed C1 with snapins and created a secondary GW domain for the gateway on the Exchange server. The secondary domain starts up OK.
    However, when I try and install the gateway on the Exchange server, it fails wi the error 'Unable to get Exchange Server Sites for the server servername and the organization orgname'. If I OK that message, it takes me to the dialog to select the server site, etc, but there is nothing to select, so I have to cancel out of the install.
    Any ideas?
    Rob.

    The best approch at installing this gateway is to follow the TID on how to install it.
    How to Install the GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange
    TID #7001367
    Environment
    Novell GroupWise Gateway - 7.x Gateway for MS Exchange
    Novell GroupWise 7
    Situation
    GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange Install fails to result in working Gateway
    GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange Service will not start
    ERROR: "1503: The Service did not respond or the start or control request in a timely fashion."
    ERROR: "ERROR (E01) 010012: Unable to get configuration information from the MAPI Session"
    ERROR: "ERROR (E01) 010012 MAPI code: 11D"
    ERROR: "ERROR (E01) 0323004 - Unable to bind to the Gateway Object"
    Resolution
    This document is designed to aid in a successful install of the GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange in regards to "How to Set Rights for Windows users to install and run the Gateway."
    The install and configure documentation should be followed in addition to this TID. GroupWise GateWay Documentation Novell Doc: GroupWise Migration Utilities - Table of Contents
    The document does not include installation of the Free busy search components. At the time of writting the GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange is not intended to be used with Exchange 2007. Installing the Gateway on a Exchange 2003 server in an Exchange 2007 environment appears to be a valid work-around for using the gateway in an Exchange 2007 environment.
    Install the latest version of the Gateway software. The latest version can be obtained by calling support. The files can be obtained by opening a service request with support. If no additional support is required the service request may be closed at no additional charge.
    Assumptions about the server where the Gateway will be installed:
    Novell Client is installed
    Authenticated to Edirectory as Admin
    ConsoleOne is installed
    Active directory Users and Computers in installed
    Exchange system manager is installed
    AdsiEdit is installed (possibly not needed)
    The install / running of the GroupWise gateway for Microsoft Exchange has been complicated and usually requires additional attention to rights as a result of change made in Exchange
    More information about this change can be noted at “Send As” permission behavior change in Exchange 2003 “Send As” permission behavior change in Exchange 2003.
    Preliminary Step to take to insure success before installing the Gateway:
    Check for the existance of Gwise address space on current policy and remove. Find Policy in Exchange system manager | go to properties | remove any old Gwise address space and apply the policy to remove address space from invidual users. Check individual users that the Gwise address space was remove.
    Find and remove all Gwproxy.dll on all Exchange servers. Delete gwproxy.dll from Program Files\Exchsrvr\address\gwise\i386 directory on ALL Exchange servers. If the file will not delete you may have to stop Exchange services.
    Enable the hidden security tab at the top of the Exchange Org to assist in checking for proper rights needed to run the gateway. The following document will assist in enabling the security tab: XADM: Security Tab Not Available on All Objects in System Manager
    Create a user to run the Gateway service and remove his membership to groups not needed. IE: remove membership to "users group" as well as any other groups that are not needed. To remove and add membership to a user go to Active directory Users and Computers | properties of the user | membership tab.
    Add group membership for user used to install the gateway as well as the user used to run the gateway rights to the following groups: Domain admins, Schema admins, Enterprise admins, Exchange Domain Servers
    Use the hidden security tab to verify that the Installer user and the Service Runner user do not have deny rights set to the "send as" and "receive as" attributes. Go to Exchange system manager at the top of the Org | right click and see the new security tab we enabled in Step 3. Check each group the installer and runner are a members of and remove deny attributes from the "send as and receive as" check boxes. If the groups are not visible in the Top portion of the properties page use the ADD button to add the group | highlight the user and check the "send as" and "receive as" rights.
    Follow the Install and configure documentation for the GateWay Novell Doc: GroupWise Migration Utilities - Table of Contents
    Run the Install for the Gateway.
    If the gateway fails to start it is usually an issue with "send as" and "receive as" set to deny. Use ADSIedit.mcs to find a possible deny that is not visible in Step 6. To launch ADSIedit go to Start | run | type ADSIeit.msc (If needed you can install ADSEedit using the following URL suggestions Adsiedit Overview: Active Directory )
    NOTE: Use ADSIedit carefully. The goal is to check and set a deny / allow right for the above groups and users. Contact Microsoft support for information regarding the use of this tool.
    Using ADSIedit to find Denys to the Mail Store that are not allowing the user to run the gateway:
    Set all "Send as and Receive as" rights for the above users and groups to allow. There cannot be any deny on the "Send as and Receive as" for the above groups or users. Not even if the deny is inherited (greyed out.)
    Go into ADSIedit by going to Start | run | type ADSIeit.msc
    Expand the Configuration Container
    Drill down to Configuration/Services/Microsoft Exchange/First Organization/Administrative Groups/First Administrative Group/Servers/Exchange/information Store/First Storage Group/ and not the mail store.
    Right click the mail store object in the right hand window of Adsiedit and go to security tab.
    Check "Send as and Receive as" and change any Deny to an allow right for the above users and groups.
    A Grey check mark set to Deny indicates the right is inherited from above the current container.
    Walk up the Tree of containers checking at each section to insure the "Send as and Recieve as" is set to allow for the users and groups noted above.
    NOTE: The most common hidden deny that needs to be removed is found for the Exchange Domains Servers Group and at the Servers Container.
    Once all Denys for "Send As and Receive As" have been removed allow some time for replication. Server Restart have also shown to be helpful when rights are set correctly but service still behaves as if it is lacking the "Send As and Receive As" allow rights.
    Additional Information
    What we need to know:
    The Gateway needs to login to the Exchange mail store on the local Exchange Server and create a mailbox for the user that is specified to run this gateway. This users rights to the mail store are needed or the gateway will fail to run.
    Additional Trouble shooting aids:
    Check the Windows Event logs for error when starting the gateway
    Set the Gateway in Consoleone to log at verbose logging level
    Try starting the gateway as an application during trouble shooting process as it may allow errors to be see that are not logged. To Start the Gateway as an application when installed as a service Go to / GroupWise domain directory / wpgate/ Exchange / Exegate.exe right click and select open to launch.

  • Can not for the life of me get printing to work on my mac mini duo core

    I have a photosmart 7550 and laserjet 1012. And I can't get my mac mini to recognize either printer. This has been driving me nuts. I was a long time mac user in the 80s and early 90s. Switched to Windows. Just switched back with the mac mini (intel duo core). And I hate to say it, but it's just been an awful transition. My wife, which hates me that I made her get rid of her windows machine and switched it with this mini. If I don't get this mac printing I'm going to have to get rid of it.
    I've installed/reinstalled drivers from HP, removing the library/printer/hp directory. Guten-print. Nothing is working for me.
    Can anyone help me?
    mac mini duo core   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    If the printers are not being recognized by the Printer Setup Utility, it may mean that the printing services has not started up. You can check for this by using the Activity Monitor (/Applications/Utilities). Set it to show "All Processes", then click on the "Process Name" tab. That will sort the running processes in alphabetical order. Look for an entry for "cupsd". If you find no such entry, printing services is not running. You can probably turn it on by enabling Printer sharing (System Preferences-->Sharing).
    There should be a driver for the Laserjet 1012 that will be useable once you get the computer to recognize that there is a printer there. This according to the Apple article listing the drivers included with Intel Macs . Unfortunately, that article does not list a driver for the 7550. According to HP's support site, they do have drivers for Mac OS X 10.4. There is no entry, however, for the Intel Macs. I think you will have to wait for HP to release Intel drivers for the Photosmart printer.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:

  • I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. How can I fix it?

    I installed Mountain Lion so that I could sync my notes with my iPhone that already syncs notes with a specific email address I use for school, but during the install it automatically set up Notes to sync w the wrong email addy. It looked in Mail, which had 5 email accounts set up in it, and for some reason picked the only one that I no longer use because it is for a school that I no longer attend. How can I fix it so that it syncs with the correct email account for notes and calendar? There don't seem to be any settings available other than to check if you want to use the basic features. It also said during the set up that it was setting up 'find my mac' but if I look on the iCloud website there is nothing showing there for finding my mac.
    At this point I feel like I wasted my money paying for this supposed upgrade. I got nothing for it but frustration. It even automatically set my security settings to allow only downloads from the Mac store so the first time I went to download something I had to stop what I was doing and go correct settings first. I feel like there should be a security setting to block downloads from the Mac store so I don't accidentally end up clicking the wrong thing and being charged.

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

    Look in your Applications folder.  If your system behaved as expected, you should have an iMovie 9.0 folder in your Applications folder.  Apple moved the old version there as even they suspected the new versions was a train wreck.
