Computer name and workgroup

Just got a used Apple with Tiger. It has a system name and workgroup set up, but how can I rename thwe computer and change the workgroup name?

I went to the website recommended. It directed me to go to Applications>Utilities>Directory Access. It said I should check on the padlock to unlock, but there is no padlock. It said to check off SMB if it is not already checked off, but I could not find SMB. In the plug-ins list, there was SMB.daplug, and it had a checkmark next to it. The next instruction said to select SMB, then click Configure, but there is no Configure button anywhere. The MAC is a Power MAC G4, with Tiger 10.4.

Computer Name and Sleep

I have been able to let my iMac go to sleep in recent days, but it causes a new problem: Duplicate network name. There are no other computers on the network with the same name. There is a G4 Cube running 10.4 (which has never had this problem) and a Time Capsule. Right now its at -3 and presumably will increment to -4 the next time I wake it from sleep. How do I fix this?

I tried changing the computer name, and this resulted in the issue becoming intermittant. Not sure what to make of this, but ultimately I get the same error using different computer names.

SIU - Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file

I am setting up a workflow to image corporate computers and wanting to know how the "Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file" works in the Apply System Configuration Settings task.
We bind the computer to AD and OD and we have a specific naming convention for certain departments and trying to automate the entire imaging process.
Would this be something that can be done with SIU?

Well, maybe there's a bug in the latest version (10.5.3) of SIU as this is not what is happening.
It doesn't seem to matter what I specify for the name parameters I end up with a Bonjour name of ".local".
I put in a line of the form <Mac Address><TAB>tom<TAB>dick<TAB>harry into the text file used by the Apply System Configuration Settings Action.
and end up with hostname = tom, Computer Name = dick and Bonjour Name = .local
I'm building the NetInstall image on a new iMac running 10.5.3 booted out of a second partition and create the image from the main boot partition (also 10.5.3). I then copy the image to my server (10.5.3) and make a second iMac boot up from the NetInstall image.
For what it is worth the Workflow Actions I am using are:
Define Image Source
+ NetInstall
Source: Macintosh HD
Filter Clients by MAC Address
+ Allow
<List of MAC Addresses>
Enable Automated Installation
+ On Volume Named: Macintosh HD
+ Erase before installing
+ Primary Language: English
Apply System Configuration Settings
+ Apply Computer Name and Local Hostname settings from a file: <FILE>
Add Packages and Post-Install Scripts
+ Shell Script [Doesn't work - we're discussing in it in another thread]

Computer Name and Flurry only available Screen Savers

I've lost all the built in Apple Screen Savers except for Computer Name and Flurry. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I fix it? I looked in Computer > System > Library > Screen Savers and saw all of them there, but when I open up my System Prefs, they aren't listed. I tried repairing permissions but that didn't work. Any ideas?
Also, I have an iSight camera, and PhotoBooth is telling me my card isn't compatible, even though I used it one time when I first installed Leopard. Any clues on that one? I'm thinking this has something to do with one of the recent updates.

OK, so after not getting anywhere (not to mention growing tired of too much desktop) I disconnected my secondary monitor that was hooked via a VGA to DVI connector to my ATI X1900 XT card, and now all the screen savers are back. Looks like it just didn't like having the connector.

Difficulty changing computer name and domain name

I have a working Xserve with the latest Snow Leopard Server and am having difficulty reconfiguring it from its keyboard.
I would like to edit the computer name and domain name and maintain all other server settings. I would prefer to do this off-line. However Server Admin appears not to work off-line and any attempt to change computer name or domain name removes all server settings from view including the serial number. I can recover everything by reinstating computer name etc and restarting on-line.
Is the serial number tied to the computer name and/or domain name?
Is there any way to retain my existing server settings for a different domain?
Is there any way to progress any of this off-line?

This has now been resolved. This note is to assist others who have the same problem.
1 - I had been changing the computer name in the place I had always done it - System Preferences/Sharing. This confused Server Admin. Reverting to the original name and changing computer name and location within Server Admin resolved the issue. That is System Preferences/Sharing is updated by Server Admin but not vice versa.
2 - Playing with these things can corrupt Server Admin plist resulting in a restarted Server Admin not seeing the edited server even with the server otherwise fully functioning. Trashing Server Admin plist resolved this for me without loss of server settings.
3 - Having set it up off-line I experienced difficulty as soon as I went on-line. This was resolved by changing the server from 'local' to its full domain name. I have no explanation for this as the same settings had previously worked with 'local'.
4 - Server Admin can take a long time to find settings and occasionally failed to do so until after a restart.
The result can be seen here: http://links.open.ac.uk/ - Since Apache refuse to provide hit counter support (there are several public posts of mine on the subject) I use JavaScript to retrieve the count from an old QPQ server running on a G3 with OS 9.

Yosemite profile manager shortening computer names and serials

If I prepare a placeholder in Yosemite profile manager, it shortens computer names and serials.
I've added and removed the placeholder and the names and serials are getting smaller, to a point they are only one letter long now.
Somehow, it suspect may be linked to the form fill feature but even if I try to type all, the placeholder names and serials shorten every time.
Ever seen or solved that?
François.

I cleared Safari Form Filling in Safari > Preferences > Auto Fill > Other Forms, selected example.com, clear button and closed preferences.
I went back to profile Manager, create the place holder again and all is good now.

Computer name and local hostname not recognized at startup

I've been having trouble syncing with .mac lately. (This isn't syncing question.) Looking at my console and system logs, it would appear that my computer and network connection have a problem right from the start (except that I can connect to the Internet and can send and receive mail no problem). But I think the logs below indicate that there's some disconnect because later on, when I try to sync or do something with iDisk, "Failed to register NSConnection" and SFIDiskMirrorCopyPair returned NULL" appear in the console log. Here's some of what the logs showed. I was wondering if anyone out there can make heads or tails out of it. Wondering if I'll have to blow it up and do an archive and install.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks, Bill

Thank you for helping me. My computer is very old and it gets a lot of non-taxing use, like email and word processing. I'm trying to get another year out of it before I replace it. I first had to reset the PRAM because I had full-on freeze a couple of months ago. I couldn't get the computer to respond at all. Apple Support helped. They had me reset the PRAM, but the reason I've been resetting it now and again is that it seemed to fix a problem I was having with audio. When I am using Skype, Facetime or Gchat there was a crackling sound so loud, I'd have to hang up. Resetting the PRAM seemed to take care of this. I read around a little on the Internet. There was some suggestion that maybe my logic board is failing, at which point I would really have to replace my computer. But I was hoping for some pointers about this keyboard. I spent a couple of days reading and didn't find anyone having quite my problem. I guess it wouldn't really be such a problem if I didn't have this audio problem as well.

I changed the Computer Name and i can not run EM.

I had to change the computer name in order to connect to the intranet.
I updated the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora with the new computer name.
I can run SqlPlus but i can not run EM on http://tahirpc.isu.intranet:1158/em *
I checked Services and I saw that OracleDBConsoleorcl service do not work. I get error code:2 when i try to run it manually.
What should i do?

i have 2 convention name on my organization name , 1 - ISR , 2 -TLV .
some computers :
ISR2
ISR3
ISR4
some computers :
TLV2
TLV3
TLV3
i tried this command "
Get-ADComputer -Filter * {Name -Like "TLV,"} Error :
Get-ADComputer : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'Name -Like "TLV"'.
At line:1 char:15
+ Get-ADComputer <<<< -Filter * {Name -Like "TLV"}
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Get-ADComputer], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Commands.GetADComputer
or if have another option -command can read both computers name and then move them
My Website:www.Pelegit.co.il Mcitp /Mcsa 2012

Lol , My friend i dound that command in another website and it is working but thank you so much !
what about 2 differet name ?
Possible ?
Get-ADComputer -Filter {Name -like "TLV*,ISR*"}
My Website:www.Pelegit.co.il Mcitp /Mcsa 2012
You would need separate statements like
-Filter {(Name -Like "TLV*") -and (Name -Like "ISR*")}

Reading computer name and windows loginname

Hi All:
I want to read windows login name and the computer name of the person browsing the web page. How I can do this in jsp/servlet/javascript. I tried in applet but I cannot read that because of no permissions.
Thanks,

Sign the applet and use:
String loginname = System.getProperty("user.name");
String computername = java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
(note: computername method may not work on every computer)

Computer name and status message queries

Hi Guys,
A little background: I have a powershell script that will automate the osdcomputername variable based on office code + serial number during a bare metals build. However, when I go into the Status Message Queries, the System column still displays the
MININT-XXXXXXX name. Is there a something I am missing or a workaround available you know of?
I can only get the computer name to display correctly in the System column if I prestage the computer name or if it is a refresh build.
Thanks in advance.

That's default and cannot be changed.

Computer name and OU not applying

I am not really sure why this no longer is taking effect, but in the past, we start an image, we get the option to Name the computer in the Deployment Wizard. Then it will image the computer, use that name we put in, and also place it in the correct OU.
My recent images are not taking either of these. They will image, sit at a screen to name the computer again, and place the computer in the Computers OU instead of what I tell it to in Unattend.xml.
Is there a reason somebody can think of why this would be occuring (both the name not taking, and the OU not being applied)?
Thanks

Looking for my computer name and mac address. Where do i find them?

I think this should be straightforward. Where would I find my Mac Address and name of my computer? I want to tether with my phone and need to give my phone this info.
Thanks in Advance.
Deb

Your Computer Name is found in the Sharing preferences at the top. For your MAC address open Network preferences, select your desired port such as Wireless then click on the Advanced button. Click on the Hardware tab. You will find it there.

Apple cinema display, IP address, Computer Name and Apache

I have been working on getting Apache, php, mySql setup to do a bit of web design and playing with wview (weather station), drupal, wordPress, etc. Right off the bat, let me make clear that I am not attempting to host sites to the big bad WAN. LAN only!
The changes to OS X over the last several versions were a definite speed bump but with the help of Neil Gee's youTube video and this forum pointing me to a permissions problem, Apache, mySql, and php are installed. Browsing localhost, localhost/~myname and a couple of sites I set up using vhosts in ~myname/Sites from the laptop works. Joy! Browsing from other computers on the network nothing worked. Half a day googling the problem before I noticed something odd about the IPv4 Address for my Mac.... when I tried switching it to a static IP I got the message that the IP was already in use.
At this point I need to describe my setup... a MBP with Thunderbolt connection to an Apple Cinema display. The ACD is connected via ethernet and the laptop was connected to the LAN via the Thunderbolt. The network router is (unfortunately) an HGV-3800 whose radio is turned off. Wireless in the household is accomplished by a Time Capsule in bridge mode. Not my preferred setup but after killing off several good days, I capitulated to the recommended AT&T configuration.
A quick browse of devices on the router revealed that the IP being used by my MBP/ACD had an unknown device name while all the other devices in the house had their names... odd. So I fired up the wireless on the MBP and took another look at the device list... the router listed this new connection with my correct device name. Even better, when I browsed to http://myComputerName and http://myComputerName/~myname from another computer on the LAN the It Works! and My Site Works! came up perfectly. However, the sites that i set up in vhosts stubbornly refuse to come up on the other devices.
My interpretation of what is happening with the ethernet connection to the ACD is that this connection is not identified as being to my laptop... it is to the ACD and somehow the laptop is borrowing it... surfing works and I can connect for file sharing to other computers on the LAN (though it is a bit clunky)... the borrowed connection is not up to the task of hosting on the LAN. My question about this is whether there is a setting I can make which will correct this behaviour and allow the Thunderbolt connection to function as if the ethernet was directly connected to the laptop?
The other more important question is what is needed to make the sites I have in myComputer/~myName/Sites browseable from other devices on the LAN... these same sites that are coming up perfectly when I browse to mySite1.com from the laptop?
I am not really looking for advice to go get Mavericks Server... many different issues with that scenario.

Your router only has a limited about of features to make it "stealthy."
Here are a few things you can try...
- Access the router's web-based administration @ http://192.168.0.1.
- Advanced > Virtual Server
-- Virtual Server: Disabled (pg. 25)
- Advanced > Applications
-- Applications: Disabled (pg. 26)
