Cannot disable Homes: Enable Virtual Share Points

Hello,
We just installed 10.5 server this morning, and many things seem to be a big improvement-- e.g., the new version of Samba (3.0.25) now allows AD transitive trust users to connect, whereas 10.4's Samba (3.0.10) did not. But the problem now is: we cannot disable the virtual share points for homedirs on Samba. In Server Admin, if you uncheck the checkbox and hit "Apply", the GUI rechecks it.
10.4 Server has this same configuration option, and it works as expected. I did a little investigation with the serveradmin command-line tool on our Leopard machine, and this tool exhibits the same problem. For example:
floydpepper:/ admin$ sudo serveradmin settings smb:adminCommands:homes = no
Password:
smb:adminCommands:homes = yes
For reference, we are set up as a Domain Member for Active Directory. We do not have any schema additions (for Mac stuff, anyway).
I suspect that maybe there's some configuration option further up that supercedes this, and that's why Server Admin rechecks the checkbox. My guess was that maybe Directory Services was overlaying an attribute on top of AD information. And I see that if I use dscl and look at the attributes for my user in AD, there is indeed an attribute for home folders that clearly does not exist in the AD itself: "NFSHomeDirectory" which is set to /Users/[myusername]
When I go back and us dscl to lookup the same thing in Tiger Server, Directory Services also appends the NFSHomeDirectory attribute, but without the same side-effect. So I'm probably mistaken that that is the cause.
Anyone have any pointers? This looks an awful lot like a bug to me.
Thanks,
-b
P.S. I also did have a look at where in smb.conf this is being set-- it is being put in an include'd smb.conf that is stored in /var/run. If I comment out the \[homes\] section, and restart Samba, that /var/run/smb.conf is overwritten with a new autogenerated version. I would just wipe that section out, lock the file, and restart Samba, but I really do want our administrators to be able to use the GUI tools. Otherwise, I would just be using Samba on Linux.

I was able to "fix" the issue with an ugly workaround by modifying /etc/smb.conf and adding certain values to the [[homes]] share that render it ineffective. I added the following to /etc/smb.conf:
; Site-specific parameters can be added below this comment.
; END required configuration.
; Hack to disable virtual homes
[[homes]]
path = /dev/null
valid users = root
; END hack
With these values added to [[homes]], it is only available to the root user, and even then it would go nowhere. I debugged the issue to the point where it appears that the synchronize-preferences tool (/usr/libexec/samba/synchronize-preferences) ignores user settings for disabling virtual homes. I sent so far as to modify the system default in /System/Library/CoreServices/SmbFileServer.bundle/Resources/ServerDefaults.plis t to see if it was a simple case of default settings overriding user settings, but that also had no effect on the configuration that synchronize-preferences created in /var/db/smb.conf
I hope this helps you all out.

Virtual share points - SMB - not working

My colleague made some adjustments on our sharing over the weekend. To trouble shoot some performance issues he disabled automount on one of our xserves. Since then virtual share points in SMB no longer work. Users can access their folders with the path \\server\user shares\username
I have enabled the automount on the user share but it hasn't made any difference. I have tried to change settings under advanced in SMB but they revert automatically when I click save.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Paul

Same problem here. I can't switch off virtual sharepoints. They came back on when pressing "Save".

Cannot connect to configuration database - share point services 3.0

Hello,
Im running a SharePoint Service 3.0. Databases are on a SQL 2005 server.
Yesterday I wanted to change the user identity for the IIS application pools. I also added the new user to access the databases. After the change I got the message that I couldnt connect to the configuration database when I opened the SharePoint Site/Central
Administration.
Now I wanted to change the user identity for the application pools back to the old identity - for this I had to change the users password. After the change I still get the message and dont know what to do.

Check if you are able to connect to SQL server using management studio.
GO to c:\ or d:\ create a text file. Then rename the extension of file from .txt to udl. example SQL.udl
Now open this SQL.udl and type the server name. try to connect to SQL server.
If you face issue with .udl then there is some network issue between SQL and sharepoint.
If UDL works fine then there is some issue with either config db or sharepoint server.
Check if sharepoint user is not locked and firewall is disabled on both servers

Solved: I cannot manage (bring online, initialize, partition, format, or write to) a VHDX hard drive once it has "Enable Virtual Hard Disk Sharing" enabled.

Hello,
Issue:
On a Virtual Machine with a secondary VHDX attached, I cannot manage (bring online, initialize, partition, format, or write to) the VHDX hard drive once it has "Enable Virtual Hard Disk Sharing (VHD Sharing)" enabled.
Questions:
Should I be able to manage (bring online, initialize, partition, format, and write to) a VHDX hard drive once it has VHD Sharing enabled? If I should be able to manage it, what am I missing?
Topography:
One SuperMicro Cluster In a Box (CIB) with 2012 R2 Data Center on each node. Microsoft Failover Cluster installed and working on each node. The Failover Cluster Servers on each host passes all cluster validation tests. Two Hyper-V 2012 R2 Data Center Virtual
Machine (VM) servers, one on each node. 1 common Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) and 1 Generation 2 Scale-Out File Server (SOFS) shared volume both Resilient File System (REFS) formatted. One 5 Gigabit (Gb) Virtual Hard Drive Type X (VHDX) file on the CSV and/or
SOFS. Integrity bit and read only turned off on VHDX file.
Each of the two Hyper-V VMs have one 127Gb VHDX Generation 2 primary hard drive and 1 VHDX secondary hard drive attached, both on SCSI Controller #1.
Background:
If I start VM1 without the VHD Sharing enabled on the secondary hard drive, I can bring the drive online, initialize, partition, format, and write to the drive.
If I enable VHD Sharing, I can no longer modify the drive in Disk Management in any way. With or without VM2 running.
Both VMs and the CSV and SOFS are on the same host cluster server, or not, no difference…
The VHDX is referenced either by the CSV name C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\TEST1.VHDX
or a Shared Folder name
\\sharedfolder\folder\Test1.VHDX .
If I start VM1 with VHD Sharing disabled and I format the drive, then shut down and enable VHD Sharing, the drive is offline and requests initialization which fails with an "I/O device error", every other attempt to manage the drive fails with
the same "I/O device error", error.

Hi All,
I had to buy a Willy Wonka bar and spend a golden ticket to get an answer to this one.
We found that the default LogicalSectorSizeBytes of a VHDX is 512b. It needs to be 4kb.
The Host drive doesn't seem to matter CSV or SOFS. Below is a way to create a VHDX with the correct LogicalSectorSizeBytes.
In Power Shell, type --> New-VHD -Path C:\ClusterStorage\Volume4\Cluster2DataDisks\Cluster2Disk1.vhdx -SizeBytes 200Gb -PhysicalSectorSizeBytes 4kb -LogicalSectorSizeBytes 4kb
Attach the resulting file to your guest cluster servers and set the Enable Virtual Hard Disk Sharing option on both server. You should now be able to bring the drives on-line and initialize them. They will also add to the guest cluster pool.
Change the size, path and file name above to fit your Cluster Servers configuration.
Thank You
Sachin Kumar Support Engineer | Windows Server Setup Team | Microsoft Enterprise Platform for finding the answer to this one.

Cannot connect from iMac to Windows Home Server 2011 shares

Hi guys,
I am having dificulties connecting from iMac to Windows Home Server 2011 shares.
First of all it takes so long time to discover the share in iMac, which it's called "mediaserver". After finding it i cannot connect and gives "Connection Failed: message. If i choose "Connect As.." option i wait some time and then pops out with an error: "There was a problem connecting to the server "mediaserver". The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again."
If i try from Finder -> Go -> Connect to Server ... write in Server Address : smb://mediaserver it fails. But if i write the IP address, like: smb://192.168.1.42 it works after couple of tries. If i try now to Make an Alias for the share i get "The operation can't be completed. An unexpected error occurred (eror code -8060)."
Has anyone experienced these problems ? I have updated to Mac OS X version 10.7.3. Could that be the problem ?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Simi

You need to reinstall the updated WHS connector for Mac. You should then be able to access your shares on WHS 2011.
The problem I'm having is I can't get Time Capsule to recognize the WHS 2011 mapped folders that show up on the desktop as a drive, so Backup won't work.

FTP root & share points - how can I disable the latter?

I'm new to the Mac world and I'm in the process of configuring a Mac OS X server to run Contribute 3.
The server will be used to host a single site and the FTP is working now.
Question is, how can share points be disabled?
In the FTP root (libary/webserver/documents/) the following 3 files always get created automatically (I've tried deleting them as root):
Groups
Public
Users
Is there a way to disable them? I was thinking of placing the website one folder away from the ftp root, but that could make things too complicated for users.
Please advise!

Anyone?
I removed the share points in the Workgroup Manager but they still show up when I ftp into the server (set to ftp root & share points).
Does anyone know how to get rid of them permanently?
If that is all it should take, please post... The system has been unable to save all settings as an account was deleted and the OS placed certain folders into the "unkown" ownership which is the topic in another thread:

Share point in server admin not working correctly... I think

I suspect that the share point in server admin is not working correctly. In workgroup manager when I click on a user and then click on the "home" tab, under the full path field I see a file path of:
afp://server.mydomain.com/Users
However if I go to Server Admin -> AFP -> Share Points then click on the Users share and then click on the share point tab below, enable auto mount is disabled. How can this be possible? I thought for a directory to show up in home in workgroup manager it had to be set as an auto mount. Has something possibly corrupted? And what?

Here's a bit more information about our setup and our experiences with Apple's CUPS implementation:
On the server, all printer queues are set up with only lpr and ipp sharing enabled with the PPD setting for each printer set to Generic Postscript. We found that setting the PPD to the printer specific one on the server caused problems when clients tried to use printer specific options, like paper tray selection, etc.. The selection would be undone, apparently because the driver on the server would override the previous settings. Using Generic Postscript allows the client PPD settings to go through unmodified. Our printers are general a mix of HP LaserJets and some Sharp Copiers.
All clients use lpd to the server queues with the printers' actual PPDs configured. Using ipp is superior in that printer feedback (jams, out of toner, etc) makes it back to the clients, but ipp only works when the client, the server, and the printer are on the same network. If the ipp client is not on the same network, the client spooler immediately goes into a paused state and the print job is stuck on the client.
Using lpd to the server queues works reliably, but there is no feedback to the client. Jobs disappear from the client queue and go to the server, appearing to the user as a successful print. If the printer is down, there's nothing they can see or do about it.

WebDAV Share Points Missing in OS X Server 10.8

WebDAV share points are missing in OS X Server 10.8.
To see for yourself:
1) Do a clean-install of OS X Server 10.8 with a single admin account and a .local host name.
2) In Server.app -> File Sharing, enable WebDAV access for the three default share points: /Groups, /Public, /Users.
3) In Finder -> Go -> Connect to Server -> http://server.local/webdav/ and log-in as the admin account.
Note that only the admin account's networked Home directory appears. There is no WebDAV access to the enabled share points.
4) In Finder -> Go -> Connect to Server -> afp://server.local and log-in as the admin account.
Note that the three default share points appear, along with the networked Home directory. AFP allows access to the enabled share points.
Any suggestions for a fix, or work-around?

I agree with Larry Goldman on this 100%. OS X 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 were rock solid when released. Starting with 10.7 it's been Vistaville all the way. Combined with fanboi arrogance, this has been totally frustrating.
There was a file/directory permissions error in 10.7.0 through 10.7.3, This permissions error caused endless random untracable problems and Apple said NOTHING about it. This wasn't fixed until 10.7.4, and a month later Mountain Lion came out.
"Don't reopen windows at startup" didn't work until 10.7.4 either - causing no end of headaches and problems, but Apple shipped 10.7 out the door with this glaring bug. Nobody at Apple saw this? Nobody tested this? It took a year for Apple to finally to fix it?!?!
Lion was a broken piece of **** until 10.7.4, and I cannot imagine all of the user frustration that must have occured as a result of these two problems, but how many other problems wreaked havoc, undetected?!?
I guess all the seasoned Apple devs went over to iOS, and the beginners are working on OS X. It really shows.
When I booted Lion and Mountain Lion for the first time, all kinds of buggy weirdness reared its ugly head. Windows not closing, artifacts remaining on screen, preference setting reverting without reason, fields not accepting input, Safari suddenly unable to connect to the internet (even though Chrome worked perfectly at the same time for the same URL), yada yada yada...
It used to be Microsoft that made their customers find all their OS bugs for them because it was cheaper than writing clean code from the beginning.
Today, quality control and testing have obviously gone out the window at Apple. They need to spend more of that $100 billion on QA and less on marketing.

Automount Share points not showing up?

So I've got a Share point named 'Documents', 'Enable automount' is check and it has a custom path of '/Network/Documents'. (BTW, is the appropriate place for that?)
When I log in as a user I can see that the directory '/Network/Documents' is being created (by clicking on 'All...' in the finder sidebar), but nothing useful is happening with it... double-clicking on it takes me into the folder about 0.5 to 1 second then "redirects" me back to the 'Network' folder.
I don't get usable icons (on the desktop) for the 'Documents' share until I go Shared > MyServer > Documents ... only then do I see the share point in any sort of usable state.
Am I missing something? I assumed that making something automount would place it on the desktop or the sidebar or something when the user logs in.

+I assumed that making something automount would place it on the desktop or the sidebar or something when the user logs in.+
No. An automount only works if your server is configured to host a shared LDAP domain (OD Master) and the client is bound to that domain (so that it can read the mount record).
With that said, there are two types of automounts available via AFP:
*A Dynamic Automount*, which is typically used for the home directory share point(s). Dynamic mounts "eject" and remount as the user who is logging in at login time. The mount path is configured automatically in /Network/Servers.
For example, a share point configured to automount (located at /Volumes/Data/Homes on the server with name myserver.myco.lan) will dynamically automount at this path on the client:
/Network/Servers/myserver.myco.lan/Volumes/Data/Homes
*A Static Automount*, which is typically used for sharing common files; a shared Library is an example. Static automounts mount at /Network/mountname, and are done at startup time. Generally speaking, these will only work if one of the following is true:
1. AFP Guest access is on for the share point being statically automounted. (Make sure that AFP guest access is on for the AFP service and on for the share point. Disable it for any other share points that don't need AFP guest access.) In this case, the automount will be mounted as the AFP guest user, not the currently logged-in or connected user.
2. The client system is bound to an Open Directory Master via directory binding, and Kerberos is working properly on the master. In this case, the static automount will mount as the logged-in user.
If you just want to make a share point mount automatically at login time, consider adding the AFP share point's URL to the user's login items instead of creating an automount. This will mount the share point in the "classic" manner, where it appears in the Computer window and on the Desktop.
To do so, you can manage the login items (loginwindow.plist or com.apple.loginitems.plist) for the user or group via Workgroup Manager. Open TextEdit (for example), and type the URL for connecting to the share point - afp://myserver.myco.lan/stuff, for example - and drag that text onto the Desktop to create an AFP Internet Location file. Then drag that file into the login items section of Workgroup Manager to add it.
If your server has Kerberos running, you're set. When a client logs in, he/she gets a Kerberos TGT from the KDC and a service ticket for AFP which mounts the share point; no name and password to re-enter. If not, you can check the "connect with user's name and password" box in the login items section of Workgroup Manager to have login window hold the user's name and password temporarily and enter it for him/her.
Also note that Leopard clients don't automatically show mounted share points on the Desktop (but they do appear in the Computer window of the Finder and in the SHARED section of the sidebar). If you'd prefer to have users see shares on the Desktop again, you can manage that via Workgroup Manager's Finder preferences section.
Hope this helps!

Can ssh into client iMac but cannot mount home directory ...

I've got a server running 10.4.11 and a bunch of client iMacs (10.5.n). If I ssh into a client iMac it lets me log in but cannot mount my home directory (which lives on the server). Obviously ssh is getting my credentials from the server but isn't getting (or cannot get) the information to mount my disk. If I log in through the gui on the client it all works fine. I suspect this is less of an error and more of a design. Is there a way to get the clients to mount my home when logging in with ssh? If not then Apple presumably has a reason for disallowing this behaviour. Is there a way around this? Perhaps with mount_afp?
We want to be able to log into many client iMacs at once to run computations on them. Eventually we want to do this on a suite of XServes and XGrid. This is all very easy with linux and nfs and I was expecting the same sort of ability through OS X. I know that I can export everything from the server with nfs (though that may not solve my problem) but I only have the one system and multiple users and I can't really experiment while they are connected.
Suggestions? Comments? If there are obvious examples of this elsewhere please point me toward them.

Well it's never worked that way for me. Do you actually use this method to log in?
I've gone through all of the server logs, watching what gets added as I log on to a client. I don't see anything there that suggests it is even attempting to mount the home directory. I also watched on the client and didn't see any errors. When I ssh into a client I see the following message on the terminal, "Could not chdir to home directory /Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1/username: Unknown error: 118" This suggests that the client knows where my home should be but doesn't know how to mount it.
I have enabled the basic setup on my server. User accounts have Home URLs like "afp://server.some.place/UsersR1/username" and Full Paths like "/Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1" (R1 is a RAID disk). UsersR1 has been made into a Share Point and Server Admin tells me that the disk "will be automatically mounted using the AFP protocol as /Network/Servers/R1 on client machines". This part doesn't seem to be true as when I log into a client through the GUI the actual path that is mounted as my home is /Network/Servers/server.some.place/R1" (pwd in my home directory returns /Network/Servers/server.some.place/Volumes/R1/UsersR1/username which is a actually rather inconvenient).
Under the Advanced tab in the Workgroup Manager, Accounts pane, I've got "Allow simultaneous login on managed computers". This seems to work but also seems only to apply to the GUI, that is I can log onto several clients at once.
How do I ask a client machine what home directory information it is getting from the server for any particular user? Is there some setup on the client machines that will enable automatic mounting of homes through ssh? On the clients, the Directory Utility, which I have used to connect the client to a Directory Server, has a Mounts pane which allows me to "Edit automatic NFS mounts for this computer". I am not exporting any NFS from the server, but perhaps this is the way to make it work?
Perhaps what I want to requires Kerberos? I don't have that enabled.
When I have done this on a cluster of linux machines I exported the home directory from the server with NFS (exportfs) and then, using NIS and automount on the clients it "just worked". It was very simple. If it is supposed to work with Macs and OS X, it may be simple but it's not obvious.

Sync Error Share Point & Onenote 2010

I have verified that none of the columns are required, versioning is turned off and check in/check out is not required. (http://office.microsoft.com/en-US/onenote-help/resolve-document-library-errors-when-using-onenote-2010-with-sharepoint-HA102647129.aspx?ver=14&app=onenote.exe)
Yet I continue to get this error.
This section cannot be synced because Check-in Check-Out or Required Properties are enabled in the SharePoint library. Disable Check-In Check-Out and Required Properties or move this notebook to a different location. (Error code: 0xE000078E)
Some additional notes
I can create the one note on share point and I have full rights to this share point site and the parent site.
When I added a word document it required me to add a Title as a required field. Is there some place that sets this as a required field for all libraries? How do I override this?

While everything appeared to be correct there was a location that required the title field even though it was not showing. To resolve this issue I did the following.
1. Library -> List Settings -> Advanced Settings
2. Set "Allow management of content types?" equal to Yes and save
3. Scroll down and it will show that the fields are required
This fixed the issue for all new items but required us to delete the items added previously and re add them to resolve the issue.

I cannot get "home sharing" to work on my Apple TV device

I cannot get "home sharing" to work on Apple TV.I
I type in my apple id and password to no avail.
Why isn't the apple tv device taking this info and activating home share?

I am having the same problems with Home Sharing using the Apple TV. The problems seemed to appears to have started within the last week or so. Did updates and all. Went to the Apple TV and it couldn't see either Home Share on either computers that Home Share is turned ON. Reset the routers, reinstalled iTunes on the iMac and MacBookPro. Created a second Wi-Fi Access point using a Airport Express. Put the MacBookPro and TimeCapsule on the same network and still no love to see the Home Share contents.
We have had both Mac's and Apple TV for several years and have never had any problems like this.
