Cannot smb to Windows 2000 Server share (works in 10.4)

After installing a fresh copy of Leopard on my macbook pro I cannot connect to a previously working share on a Windows 2000 Server using smb. I am using Go > Connect to Server to connect.
I am prompted for a username and password but the connection fails with Error code -43.
Here is my Console info.
11/26/07 12:13:08 PM /System/Library/CoreServices/NetAuthAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/NetAuthAgent[459] Enumerate shares failed!: syserr = No such file or directory
Any help is appreciated!

I found a work around for this in another thread. Thank you gnaegi.
Below is what was posted...
Open Terminal.app from /Applications/Utilities and then enther the following:
mkdir myshare #(do this only the first time)
mount -t smbfs //[email protected]/sharename myshare
When you work this way you should unmount the share before you log out, shutdown or put the computer to sleep. To do this, open the Termina.app and enter:
umount myshare
The mounted share is now in your home.

Windows 7 Client 'sees' an old version of windows 2012 server share

Hi All,
I have a problem which seems to be a common theme looking at other threads. Here's the overview of the problem:-
I have multiple windows 7 clients and a windows 8.1 client within a 2008 Server in a domain.
I also have a Windows 2012R2 Server which is not joined to the domain. There is a Share on the 2012R2 which has the Caching Option turned off. Everyone full control on Share & File permissions.
One of the Windows 7 machines in Explorer when it looks at
\\2012server\share sees an old version of the folder. It seems that SMB 2 chaching is working too well. Not even pressing F5 or clicking View, Refresh updates windows explorer.
It took a reboot to get the workstation to see the up to date contents of the share on the 2012 server.
We don't seem to have that behaviour with that client against the 2008 server.
I have seen this behaviour on another machine un-related to us at another location which was in a workgroup with a 2012 server and no domain.
Questions:-
Is there some sort of problem with Windows 7 workstations working against 2012 Servers in a non-domain setting or is it just Windows 7 against 2012 servers period?
I understand that Windows 7 utilises SMB1 & SMB2. SMB2 introduced caching. If the server has turned off the share cache option should the client cache the contents of the share or the information about the files & folders & 'file not found'
information?
I want to open a file handle to a file on a network share so I can read and write data to it. But I also want to know that when I look at the folder to open the file I'm actually looking at the live version of the folder and files in the folder and
not a cached version of the folder. If it's a cached version the file might be there already but I won't see it.
Is there an API call that tells the client to get a fresh view of the server share so I can be absolutely sure that when I look for a file on the server I'm getting the correct answer and not one from cache.
I first posted the question with the same subject "Windows 7 Client 'sees' an old version of windows 2012 server share" in the Windows 7 Networking Fourm
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/23bf3627-987b-4c27-8062-85a284a2cda4/windows-7-client-sees-an-old-version-of-windows-2012-server-share?forum=w7itpronetworking and it was suggested I repost in here. Please do take the time to read
the thread which will save time with suggestions that have already been covered.
As the computers that can be affected by this problem are not mine I cannot enforce or guarantee that any of my 'client base' will apply any hotfixes. I will also not have the ability to tweak registry settings as I can't guarantee Admin Access.
It seems that we need to go back to SMB1 as all the tweaks to SMB since those days have introduced problems with the basic requirement of sharing files from a share on a server for Read/Write purposes. I have tried turning a network back to SMB1 and that
has resolved a lot of the issues but then I found a post/MS blog that states not to leave the network on SMB1
The Caching option of the share had already been turned off. Surely Windows clients should not cache any information about the share but I think that is not the case.
Thanks is advance
Robert

Hi Shaon,
Thanks for looking into this.
If this is a known issue, why isn't the hotfix rolled into a general windows update if this is a known problem? However this doesn't just affect domain joined workstations.
Surely it's basic functionality for a networked computer to access files and folders on a network file server. It's what networks were invented for at the end of the day.
I am unable to apply hotfixes to these computers that are having the problem due to the fact they are not mine but my customers.
At one of my customers sites I disabled SMB2 from the server and network clients as well as disabling the network adapter power saving option. This seemed to resolve the issues that I saw on one client that seemed to be 30 minutes behind the rest of
the network. The hotfix you link to states that it is for Domain joined computers. At my customer site the PC's are not in a domain at all, just a workgroup with workstations and a 2012r2 server. Will the hotfix be applicable to non-domain machines?
Also many clients seemed to loose the file handle to an open file on the server. I'll get them to turn SMB2 back on at some point after I send out some updates but all the problems I see seem to be caused by the caching functions in SMB2. SMB1 is good and
stable. It's SMB2 that seems to be causing the problems as it was designed from the ground up for caching.
Has this networking issue been resolved in Windows 8, 8.1 and 10?
As I am unable to apply a hotfix to 1000's of PC's that are not mine, is there an API call or something where I can get the windows client to stop lying and get me the current state of a folder on the server?
Will Turning off ClientSideCaching fix the issue? HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MrxSmb\Parameters\
CSCEnabled
Or will every machine need to be tuned individually according to the following guide:-

Can i change my Exchange 2003 organization to NATIVE MODE if my Front-End Exchange server is Windows 2000 Server

I am planing to upgrade from exchange server 2003 to exchange server 2010. I understand 2010 can co-exisist with 2003, but my 2003 organization must be in NATIVE MODE, not a problem because i don't have anymore MS Server 2000 domain controllers, they
were decommisioned a few moths after we moved to AD. However my Front-End exchange server that sits on my DMZ is running Exchange server 2003 on Windows 2000 Server.
Can i change my Exchange 2003 organization to NATIVE MODE if my Front-End Exchange server is on the Windows 2000 Server OS? If not, will i have to setup a new Front-End Exchange server on at least Windows Server 2003 to replace the 2000 server setup?
It's been a very long time since these servers were configured so i may need help setting up a new Front-End server if it will be required.
thanks

Bobby

My apologies for the very, very late reply, is have made the change to native mode for my
Exchange environment, email is working fine, no problems. Thanks Cheng.<o:p></o:p>
I ran the Exchange 2010 Pre-Deployment Analyzer tool yesterday, and it showed that the
Active Directoy Forest is not Windows Server 2003 native. The domain forest
functional level showed the level to be "Windows Server 2003", is
just wanted to verify this.<o:p></o:p>
Our corporate AD has one Root domain, (I’ll call it, Corp.com) and one child
domain, (I’ll call it, na.corp.com). na.corp.com is functioning at Server 2003,
the Forest of Corp.com, as the analyzer found, shows a functional level of
Windows 2000. All Windows 2000 PDC have been off the network for almost 9
years, and were properly demoted and removed. I guess the one place is didn't
look was at the Forest level.<o:p></o:p>
I opened the AD Sites and Service mmc plugin on the corp.com server and did find the old
Windows 2000 PDC listed with the Servers. I drilled down into the containers
for the old server, deleted everything, and was able to delete the W2K PDC. I
still cannot raise the Forest level however.<o:p></o:p>
I also noticed that domain replication has errors, (8614, 1908, 1256, and 8606), so i
have a bit of a mess, and i am not sure how to fix it. I will post this on the
Exchange 2010 upgrade, and AD forums for assistance, but i wonder if i need
paid assistance.<o:p></o:p>
Thanks again Cheng

Can I install Oracle 8.1.5 on Windows 2000 server or Windows 2000 professional

Hi,
Can I install Oracle 8.1.5 on a Windows 2000 server or Windows 2000 professional server?
Regards,
Zurvaan

Yes, of course. Both versions works but you have to be prepared for lots of RAM.

WIndows 7 64-bit system printing to a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server

Is there any way to configure a new Windows 7 64-bit computer to use a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server ?
The printer that I would like to connect to is an HP 4240n LaserJet. I appears that there is only a 64-bit Universal Print Driver available. The server currently uses HP 32-bit PCL5e or PCL6 drivers for all other connected computers. Connection is through a Hewlett-Packard Network Port, using DLC/LLC transport for the embedded 4240n print server.
Installing the HP 64-bit UPD to the WIndows 7 64-bit system, and then attempting to redirect the local port to the Win2k network print server has not worked.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi:
See if this works...
Run msconfig.
In the System Configuration screen, Boot tab, Advanced Options, if there is a check mark in the box next to Maximum memory. Remove that checkmark and save your changes.
Reboot and hopefully Windows recognises all the Ram ( minus the reserved ) after restarting.
Please give that a try, and post back and let us know if that frees up some system memory for you.

When I am trying to install Oracle Enterprise server 9.2.0.1.0 on a Windows 2000 server SP4 freshly installed
The OUI hang when loading product @ 91% on the "File Location" screen !

Any URGENT idea ?

Install Oracle 8i Personald Edition on Windows 2000 Server SP2

Hi
I have problem to install the Oracle 8i Personal Edition on
Windows 2000 Server SP2.
I run the Setup.exe, I become the message (not exactly) “JRE
(Java Runtime Environment) was not found…… please visit
www.javasoft.com….. and install JRE version 1.1.7 or higher…”
Now, I have download and install this JRE (JavaTM 2 Runtime
Environment v 1.2.2_008 / Internationalized version of Java 2
Runtime Environment).
The error-messages comes again.
Have everyone a idea?

hi phill...
why dont you try it out with the same CD and increase your RAM
by another 64MB? This will be enough. The reason is , most
Oracle 8i releases are combined with a java based Oracle
Universal Installer. This requires some good amount of RAM. Just
try it out with some extra memory. If this also didnt work, then
send in the problem,error with your system config. This will
help me in solving your problem.

Problem installing Oracle 8i(8.1.7) standard edition on windows 2000 server

I am trying to install Oracle 8i (8.1.7) standard edition on windows 2000 server but the setup program doesn't run.
It starts up, allocates some ram then closes before a window even pops up.
I also have MSSQL server installed on this computer, does that conflict?
Has anyone encountered this problem before? If so, please give a solution if you have one, thanks,
OPS

Yes. There is a bug with Pent4, Win2000 & Oracle8i.
Here is the workaround:
This is a known bug with Oracle java-based applications and Pentium 4 Use this work-around:
1) Copy the install directory from the CD to the hard disk.
2) Edit oraparam.ini and modify it as follows:
* Edit the "SOURCE=" line to to show the full path to the CD ; SOURCE={CD DRIVE LETTER}:\stage\products.jar)
* Edit the "JRE_LOCATION" line to show the full path to the CD ;
JRE_LOCATION={CD DRIVE
LETTER}:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\jre\1.1.7\1\DataFiles\Expanded)
* Edit the "OUI_LOCATION" line to show the full path to the CD ;
OUI_LOCATION={CD DRIVE
LETTER}:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\oui\1.6.0.9.0\1\DataFiles\Expanded
* Edit the "JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS" line to include "-nojit" as the first argument ;
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit
-ms16m -mx32m
3) Start setup.exe from your hard drive
Choose a Custom install and choose not to create a database during the install.
This way, the Database
Configuration Assistant will not be launched during installation. DONT SELECT
NET8 products for installation.
You need to put the same java parameters for the DB configurator and the Net8
Configurator
to run.
-nojit -ms16m -mx32m before -classpath on:
* assistants\dbca\DBAssist.cl
* network\tools\netca.cl
** Run the DataBaseConfigurationAssistant and NetworkConfigurationAssistant after installation.
Hope it helps!

Java 1.4.2_04 Aggressive Heap on Windows 2000 Server

Hi all
I seem to be having trouble ith the JVM switch of -XX:+AggressiveHeap
I have Tomcat 4.1 running with the following extra JVM options
-server -XX:+AggressiveHeap -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+UseAdaptiveSizePolicy -XX:+DisableExplicitGC
Its a quad processor, with 3 gigs of RAM
BUT
The java heap is dying at 128MB of RAm - is there any known issues with AggressiveHeap not allocating sufficient available memory on Windows 2000 Server.
From the docs and white papers, if I read correctly, with a 3Gig RAM systems, the white paper says it will allocate half the available physical ram, i.e. 1.5Gig in this case. I seem to be getting only 128MB though?
Help?
Please

I've worked it out thanks - it was a Tomcat 4.1 as a service oddity...
In Tomcat 4.1, each JVM Option must be entered in the registry as one option per key, e.g.
JVM Option Number 1 -server
JVM Option Number 2 -XX:+AggressiveHeap
and not
JVM Option Number 1 -server -XX:+AggressiveHeap
Hope this is useful to fellow Tomcat users. Oh, and in Tomcat 5, it places all the values into a single key in the registry and works - just for fun I guess ;-)

Oracle 8 installation in Windows 2000 Server

I can't install oracle Enterprise Manager (Oracle 8 product) in a Windows 2000 Server system. The installation program show me this error message:
"Unable to delete the NT Service for the
SQL * NT V2 listener"
Can any body have the solution?

Supposedly you need to find these 3 files.
SQLNET,TNSNAMES, LISTENER using your windows find from start. change the names of the dev ones to .bak or something else.
copy the files from your 8i/network/admin into those 2 other places (forget the/samples directories). restart the database and it should connect (Developer stuff to database) A friend of mine did this on W2K and it wokred fine. I have tried it on win98 with 8i personal edition for win 98 and DEV 6 and it failed. So if anyone knows anything I am missing let me know. SQL+ works fine so I knw the DB is fine.
Thanks,
Michael

ICal 2.0.2 wont publish to Windows 2000 Server

After upgrading to Tiger, I am no longer able to publish an iCal Calendar to a private server which works perfectly on 10.3.X / ical 1.5.5.
I'm running OS X 10.4.2 and iCal 2.0.2. I am trying to publish to a Windows 2000 server running IIS. When I attempt to publish, I see the dialog box which says, "Publishing <Calendar Name>"... The progress bar gets about 75% across and holds for a while. Finally, I get an error dialog which says, "Publish failed for calendar <calendar name>. -- Request to <hostname> failed after trying for 30 seconds."
Now, I KNOW the permissions are set correctly on the server for two reasons. 1.) I can get it to work from 10.3.9 with no problem at all. And 2.) Under Tiger, if I try to publish this calendar, and there's already a .ics file on the server with the same name, iCal deletes it! It certainly wouldn't be able to delete the file if there were a permissions issue.
So, iCal 2.0.2 does a GREAT job of deleting a calendar on the server, it just won't write a new one. I have even checked the Event viewer on the Windows 2000 server. I'm auditing successes and failures of all events and I see nothing to indicate that it's having a problem.
Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.
-Chris

I'll reply to myself here...
WebDAV between ical 2.0.2 and Win2000 Server just does not work. This used to be a problem in earlier versions of iCal. That's where "FTP iCal" really came to the rescue.
They finally fixed it, but now it seems to be broken once again.
"FTP iCal" lives once again as "FTP iCal calendars." I guess I'll be using this little gem until Apple fixes iCal AGAIN. Here's the developer's site in case anyone else is interested.

SOS I am in trouble Installing Forms Server on Windows 2000 Server

I need advice on installation of Forms Server on Windows 2000 Server. Is Forms Server only meant for Windows NT.

Install Oracle 10g on Windows 2000 server

hello
I have installed Oracle 10.1.0.2 on my server ( Windows 2000 server). The procedure of installation goes suitably but during the creation of the base it posts me:
instance Created
Dim-00019: Error of creation of service
O/S-error OS1387) Impossible to add or remove a member of the local group because this member does not exist
then, I look that the service OracleDBConsole of Enterprise Manager is not created
knowing only SqlPlus goes well.
after the installation, I want to add the console Enterprise Manager while using EMCA then it display this error:
Failure of the configuration Enterprise Manager because: Job_queue_processes must be equal to or higher than 1
help Me PLEASE

First problem: Check the user , which does the installation,
it must be a Local Administrator in order to install Oracle products on a
Windows NT/2000 Server (machine not part of a domain) or it must be a Domain Administrator to install Oracle products on a Domain Controller (PDC or BDC) (machine part of a domain).
Another known issue for this problem is a non-english Windows version,in this case the software should reloaded from OTN, which has a fix.
Second problem: You cannot run emca, BEFORE you have a running database, DBConsole depends on it.

Error -36 connecting to Windows 2000 Server

I'm trying to connect to a windows 2000 server that appears in my Network browser but I can't authenticate using the Network browser or via smb://.
I have been able to connect in the past no problem and I can login to the server on another machine using my user and password.
I get two errors:
If I go via Network browser I can click and get a username and password dialog box. When I enter my details and hit return I get - 'The alias (servername) could not be opened because the original could not be found'
If I go via Connect to Server i get a "can't connect to server blah blah (-36 error)" and I can cancel or try again.
I've searched high and low for a solution but can't find anything like this.
I suspect I need to trash some preference or other, like you could do in OS9, but I have no idea where to start with OS X.
Can anyone help?

G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

See the following article
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301580
Basically the steps are as follows:
Follow the steps below to configure your computer to use plain text passwords to make SMB/CIFS connections when the specified Samba or Windows (SMB/CIFS) server does not support encrypted passwords. (You must be an administrator to do these steps.)
Make sure that you are not currently connected to any Samba or Windows (SMB/CIFS) servers and that you do not have any Samba or Windows-related error messages open.
Open the Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/).
At the prompt, type: sudo pico /etc/nsmb.conf
Press Return.
Enter your password when prompted, then press Return again.
You should see an empty file and a "New File" notice at the bottom of the pico window. If you do not see the "New File" notice, this file already exists.
Enter the following into the file so that it appears as follows:
[default]
minauth=none
Save the file (press Control-O), press Return, then exit pico (Control-X).
Type: sudo chmod a+r /etc/nsmb.conf
Press Return.
Restart your computer.

Netbeans and Windows 2000 Server Problems

I've tried to run netbeans on my windows 2000 server OS a few times. It usually doesn't work out and I have to go back to pcGrasp.
Does anyone out there know of any issues between netbeans and this OS. Is it worth it. I'd like to move away from the .net world and learn j2EE but I'd like to move up my IDE. Netbeans seems like the best choice. Does any experienced individuals out there know of a better one?
This was my latest error with netbeans. From just opening a folder??? I also tried to report it - I still have to wait another hour after I registered before I could HOPEFULLY find where exactly I can report it. Maybe thats why there are so many bugs. They make it impossible to report something they tell you to report to help out.
A java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException exception has occurred.
Please report this at http://www.netbeans.org/issues.html,
including a copy of your ide.log file as an attachment.
The ide.log file is located in your C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.netbeans\3.6\system folder.
Thanks for anything

I use Windows 2000 Professional and have not problems.
I would suggest,
- ensure you have all windows updates.
- ensure you have JDK 1.4.2_04
- try eclipse which is also free (From IBM) http://www.eclipse.org/
