CName / forwarding question

Finishing my site design on iWeb, and want to use my own domain name. Two choices. 1) change the CName at Network Solutions, but they told me that it would only work if viewers type in the entire url (for ex www.mydomainname.com) It would not work if viewers type in mydomainname.com. Is this correct?
2) Have Network Solutions forward everything to my .mac url and use masking to hide the web.mac.com/.... url. Any suggestions as to which is better? Thanks, Jon

Actually the OP is correct. I have my godaddy domain setup with the cname and it requires the www in order to get to the site. Without the www it showed a parked page. I forwarded mydomain.com to goto www.mydomain.com and it's working perfectly. I am pretty sure the browser is not modifying your entries. My guess is that auto complete is "adding the rest."

Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.

Why isn't there a TechNet forum for ADFS yet? They have been forwarding questions to the "Project Geneva" forum for years now.
It would be nice if there was IT Pro specific forum. The MSDN Geneva forum has people who have programming questions for WIF in addition to people trying to get ADFS and Web App Proxy setup.
WHY?

Given the growing importance of Office 365 and the role of ADFS in some of the larger deployments, that may happen. Someday.
It is somewhat arbitrary.
AD DS, AD CS, AD FS, and AD RMS are all considered components of Active Directory.
I suppose that's what the AD stands for...
Yet, most ADCS questions are posted and answered in the Technet Security forum.
ADFS questions are often referred to Project Geneva.
Directory Services has its own forum.
Group Policy has its own forum.

If you look in "related threads", someone asked a question precisely about ADCS:

Mail forwarding question

Hello,
I have added mail forwarding throguh delegated admin for a user.
The issue I am observing is the mail box which has forwarder entry also has emails and they are not getting deleted.
My question is whether can I set something where in the message gets deleted after forwarding it.
I am using iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.20

You are indeed using an old version of Messaging Server.
5.2p2 is available free, and is later than what you're using.
5.2hf1.10 is current, and is available through Tech Support.
All that being said, when you turn forwarding on, you likely left "mailbox" delivery on. that means that the messages will be both forwarded AND delivered to the mailbox.
Uncheck the "mailbox" delivery, and you won't see messages getting delivered there.
The DA will show a checkbox next time you go that user, though. Not to worry....

Call forwarding question

Hi All,
I have an odd requirement: my users want to be able to forward externally only the caller is external. i.e. I call Joe internally, and although he has a forwarder to go to his mobile, it will ring him through Lync. Is that possible? If
I call from an external landline to will be forwarded to his mobile.
Thanks
Craig

Yes, it's possible. by configure simultaneous ring to mobile and lync.
To set up call forwarding and simultaneous ring, do the following:
In the Lync main window, in the lower-left corner, click the Call Forwarding menu
, and then click
Call Forwarding Settings.
In the Lync – Options dialog box, click Forward my calls to:, and then do one of the following:
Click another of your numbers, such as your mobile phone.
Click New Number or Contact, and then search for or click a contact in the dialog box that is displayed.
Click Simultaneously ring, and then do one of the following:
Click another of your numbers, such as your mobile phone.
Click New Number, and then type a new number in the dialog box that appears.

Simple Port Forwarding Question

Sorry if this has been asked and answered many times before but I I've been at this for hours and I'm getting nowhere.
We have a Cisco 861 router. I've taken over the IT responsibilities from someone else and I'm just trying to forward TCP/UDP ports 5899 and 9010 to our server. I can access the server using Remote Desktop so I can see the previous IT person has gotten that far. Below is the output of our "Running Configuration".
I can see the line "ip port-map user-protocol--4 port tcp 3389" but I can't figure out how to add my own 5899 and 9010 lines.
I'm using the Cisco Configuration Professional UI but I don't have a problem using the command line interface if I'm sure I have the right commands to input. I started adding an extended rule using the ACL Editor in CCP but I'm afraid to deliver the changes to the router because it doesn't look anything like the "ip port-map user-protocol--4 port tcp 3389" line.
Here is the information generated from the ACL editor (again, I haven't delivered it to the router):
ip access-list extended user-protocol--05
remark Radmin5899
remark CCP_ACL Category=1
remark Radmin5899
permit tcp any host 10.10.10.10 eq 5899
exit
I don't think the ACL output is correct because I don't see the public IP.
How do I create a cusom ip port-map like the ones listed in the "Running Configuration"?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Turns out, through some quirk of either Java, IE or CCP, the "Port to Application Mappings" page was blank. I added the necessary application protocol and it worked for opening a port I needed open on the server. Even with the screen blank I could click on the blank area in different spots and the "Edit..." button would become available. For whatever reason, whenever I go into CCP now, the page is no longer blank.
I'm having a different problem now with opening ports for our camera DVR. I'll start a new thread for that.
Thanks for the help.

AT&T Call Forwarding Question

Hello,
I forgot my phone at home and of course of all days I am actually expecting a call. Is there anyway to log in via a landline, or any other way, and set up call forwarding to my work phone?
Message was edited by: iannamico

Called ATT and they said it is not possible to do it that way. You must have the phone with you to activate call forwarding.

Port Forwarding Question for IP Camera with MI424WR-GEN3

So just switched to fios from cable and trying to set up port forwarding on this new actiontec router so I can view my IP Camera from outside the house.
The camera has a static IP address of 192.168.1.200 using port 8080 and I works fine if I type that IP address with the port into the browser inside the network.
The IP Camera company requires you to port forward port 80 (switched to 8080) 554 and 50000-60000.
So I set up Portforwarding on the router like this:
Networked Computer / Device
192.168.1.200:8080
Applications & Ports Forwarded
IPCamera
TCP 8080 -> 8080
UDP 8080 -> 8080
TCP 554 -> 554
UDP 554 -> 554
TCP 50000-60000 -> 50000-60000
UDP 50000-60000 -> 50000-60000
WAN Connection Type
All Broadband Devices
Status
Active
Now the problem is when I type my real IP address: 108.XX.XXX.37:8080 (from inside the network it pulls up the Fios router login page and when I pull it up outside the network I get page not found. This isnt any different then I had previously done on my Netgear router, but I must be missing something on this actiontec one. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Solved!

No port on the ip address

should say tcp any on the left side of the arrow in all cases
TCP any -> 8080
UDP any -> 8080

Port Forwarding Question

I have a WCG200 with a WRT310N router attached. I'm attempting to forward a few single ports across to one of the clients on the router. I seem to be unable to forward the ports to the clients on the wireless. Do I need to forward the ports from the Gateway to the Router then to the Client. Any ideas?

As you have 2 Wireless router, so you issue is NAT behind NAT. I think you can try to Open the ports on Both the router and check if it working or not. Who is your ISP. If it dosent work then you need to bypass anyone of your router and open the ports on your router, and i think this might solve your problem.

Front Row playing shared TV video and using Fast-Forward question

I'm playing a shared TV video on my Black MacBook from my iTunes running on my PowerMac G5 across my home ethernet 10/100/1000 network. The TV video plays just fine and I can pause it using the Remote just fine. However, according to the documentation for the Remote while using Front Row in this manner, the Remote's Fast-forward is supposed to fast-forward the video if it's pressed and held down. It does not do this! It simply shows the progress bar for the video with played time on left and remaining time on right. I held the button down for at least 30 secs but to no avail. I let up on the button and press and held down for another 30 secs or so but it still would not fast-forward as the documention says it should.
My MacBook is updated with all the latest Apple software downloads for MacBook.
Have others experienced this problem, and if so is there a soln to this at this time or does one simply wait for Apple to fix it.
I will be sending feedback to Apple on this issue.
Thanks for any insights in advance.

Update...
I left Front Row paused on a shared TV Video all night. In morning time screen was black and I could not resume playback.
I backed out all the way to Desktop and restarted Front Row and selected same shared TV Video - and this time the fast-forward button worked as documented. Go figure this one
However, when I tried several Shared TV Videos I only got audio in some cases and when I did get a video feed it was not moving yet audio kept rolling along. I had to back off to the Desktop several times and restart Front Row to get things working correctly. If you enecounter this just do what I did here and you'll get things going - just don't give up on it, is my advice. :-))
This raised another issue - It appears that pause/play Remote button will not work (at least for me) after extended pause time (like for 8 hrs).
Apple has some fine tuning to do on this Front Row feature - although I will add they've done a pretty darn good job with its initial release IMO.

New network/port forwarding questions

I just replaced my Airport Extreme with a 1TB TC and set up a primary network (AirNett) and a Guest network (Guest). I added Port Mapping entries for my computers (running Tiger), SlingBoxes and ReplayTVs (which are all ethernet-connected) and I have 1 laptop running Leopard and 1 running Tiger. We also have 2 iPhones.
The wired devices all seem to connect just fine. Occasionally, there is a delay in the connection (30 sec-1 min), but once it connects, they seem to stay connected.
The laptops take too long to connect to the AirNett network. If they do connect, it seems that the connection comes and goes. The iPhones have yet to connect to AirNett.
The Guest network serves all the wireless devices just fine, BUT, it does not allow connections to the Port Forwarding devices.
So, 2 issues... any ideas about :
1) why my primary network (AirNett) is not working properly for my wireless devices and
2) why my Guest network does not allow the Port Forwarding connections.
TIA for any suggestions.

That was my point - all my lan ports that use port 80 can point at port 80, and long as the WAN ports point at something else. The trouble is, I am restricted to only using 80,81 and 443 on the LAN side, which limits me to 3 (not counting 8080 for my routers web gui)
So that means with my two web cams and web gui on my NAS drive, I am unable to log into any other web interfaces on my LAN, unless I log into my router first, disable one port forward and enable another (using the same WAN port of 80 or 81) - which is doable but a PITA..
This is what is looks like on the router:
For example, if I change the port from field for the "tranmission" entry to anything but 80 or 81, it will not work, so if I want to get into my torrent gui on my NAS drive I have to disable "cam1" and enable "transmission"
I checked with my ISP and they are not blocking any ports, so I'm not sure how to get around this, unless I can serve up a page that shows feeds from more than one camera and serve it from one source, ie my router or NAS drive.

Port Forward Question _ BT HomeHub 3

Hello all,
Ive been trying to set up port forwarding on my bt router but to no avail so far.
On the port forwarding tab in the router settings when I click Add to assign a device nothing happens??
Ive tried on my iphone and laptop and the "add" button turns grey but nothing happens?
Can anyone help?

so your selecting the "game or application" then selecting the "device" and the "ADD" button stays grey?
or can you select add but after selection and the page refreshing the new device doesnt show up?
under "supported applications" you can manually set up a device vis "new game or application" as a last resort

Smtp forwarding question

Basically I have a postfix smtp installed on my webserver and I want to use it to relay mail for my websites that have things like registration. The biggest problem is most major mail websites (hotmail, yahoo, etc) wont allow random smtp servers anymore in an effort to fight spam.
so.. I was wondering if there was a way to make postfix connect to another smtp server that is trusted, and I have an account on, and use it to forward my mail to various users.
Or is there a way to configure php to use a remote smtp server instead of localhost (would have to be able to input user name and password for both these situations to log on to the smtp.)

both are possible.
you can even install something simple like nbsmtp or ssmtp. Those are strickly relay agents. Install those on your webserver, and point them to your mailserver.
.QED

.getRequestDispatcher("/").forward question

I am not sure why I am getting this error.
java.lang.IllegalStateException at org.apache.catalina.connector.ResponseFacade.getWriter(ResponseFacade.java:159)
from the code.
this.getServletConfig().getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/").forward(request,response);
Can anyone help? Has anyone seen this before ?
I am not calling getOutputStream manually on the same request.

Typically an IllegalStateException in a case like this is because something has already been written to the response. For example,
if the response state was set, if a writer was retrieved, etc.
Look for these and see if one of them is the problem.

Port Forwarding Question - Detailed

Hi,
I hate wasting people's time, so I will give you very detailed information.
So here's an overview of the network. I have a WRT54G with V4.21 firmware on it. I also have a WRE54G Range Expander. Both are secured. We have 3 desktops, 2 laptops, and some game consoles hooked up to the wireless internet, with nothing connected with an ethernet cable (all wireless).
A friend and myself want to play an online game, which requires one person to be a server, and one to be a client. He doesn't have access to his network configurations, so I will end up being the server.
I have setup port forwarding, and the program gives me a Socket Error of 10061 - Connection was refused forcefully.
The port is 1001 that we need open.
I have checked with my ISP, and have found that they are not blocking any ports, so I know that is not an issue.
If I hook the computer up directly to the modem, it works fine, so it is definitely a forwarding issue.
I have DHCP turned off on the computer, my local IP address is 192.168.1.106
My port forwarding settings look like this.
Application: (Blank... but I have used other names during tests)
Start: 1001
End: 1001
Protocol: Both (I have also tried TCP and UDP individually)
IP Address: 192.168.1.106 (my static IP address)
Enabled: True
I have also tried turning the SPI Firewall Protection off, as well as Block Anonymous Internet Requests.
The IP address that the person is using to connect to the computer with is my router's IP address (which is propagated directly from the modem). With the port 1001. This is the same combination used when the computer is hooked up directly to the modem, however with it behind the router, the forwarding just doesn't seem to handle the forward.
I have tried it with Windows Firewall turned off, as well as my Norton AV.
I have also created exceptions and completely opened port 1001 in Windows Firewall just in case.
I've also tried just simply restarting the computer.
I'm tapped out of ideas... can anyone else suggest anything?

Alright, I went through the checklist, and every single step in the checklist checked out, except for connecting from outside the LAN. I can connect to the server through 192.168.1.150:1001, but not through xxx.xxx.96.215:1001.

The sixth one down from the top looks like it is working properly.
Let me know what you think .

WRT54G ver 6 Port forwarding question

Howdy... I just purchased the WRT54G ver 6 router to replace my old wired one that was fried after losing power one night... plugged into a $60 surge protector... but I digress... I have 2 PCs plugged into this router... neither are wireless. I host a website and so I setup the router to forward port 80 to the webserver... The loading of images has become incredibly slow. Probably 3 to 4 Xs as slow as the old router... If I plug my cable modem into the pc direct it seems fine, so I dont see a bandwidth issue or upload problem... Seems to be at the router and more specific where the router is forwarding the request. Has anyone run into this? Are there settings on the router somewhere that I can tweak?

Try to lower your MTU settings.
