Connect mac 10.8.4 to server 2012 print
Hi
I work as a printersupporter.
We have a customer who has an office hotel (e.g tenants rent a table or room for a specific time).
This enviroment consist of 150 individual users.
Theese users has a variation of Windows and Mac.
We've setup a printerserver to make it easier for users to install printer queues.
This server is a Windows Server 2012
server is in workgroup
a portion of the users have Mac OSX 10.8.4
everytime I do a "add printer" and choose "Windows" im able to browse to the "printer share" on the server 2012.
Then I point to the PPD and printer is installed.
All is well so far.
BUT every time the customer print SPECIFICALLY from 10.8.4 (examples of 10.8.2 where we see no prompts) they are prompted for username/password.
I can key in:
servername\username & password and choose "save in keychain" or login as Guest.
Both result in a print job being submitted and printed correctly.
but the problem is that users has to provide credentials EACH time they want to print.
Any suggestions and idears are MOST welcome ...
Hi Templeton
thank you for the contribution.
The printershares have "Anonymous" and "Everyone" set to print.
All windows enviroment does NOT require authentication neither does 10.8.2
The problem occurs so far only on 10.8.4 clients
also please notice that when i DO enter "username/password" the authentication succeds.
My problem is that users have to authenticate each time they print.

Server 2012 Print Server and DNS CNAME - setspn advice
Hi,
I am building a new Server 2012 Print server. What I would like to do is utilise a DNS CNAME when I deploy the printer, rather than its host name.
I have used 'setspn' to accomplish this, running the following command:
setspn -A HOST/<ALIAS> <hostname>
Now when I browse the alias I can see the installed printer. The problem I have is when I then deploy this via Group Policy it uses the servers host name instead, but it does work. If I manually edit
the GPO to reflect the alias name instead it does not deploy the printer. Moreover the indication on the 2012 server has gone so it does not see that it has any printers deployed.
When I browse the computers host name and try to manually install the printer it will state that it is downloading the drivers but never seems to complete. If I browse it's alias and try the same
thing I receive an error stating that it couldn't connect to the printer. The client machine in this instance is Windows 7 SP1 x64.
What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
HowardI've been struggling with the same problem, for a Windows 2012 R2 print server.
I've added SPN entries and registry tweaks (OptionalHostnames, DisableStrictNameChecking, DnsOnWire etc.), but still couldn't connect printers using the alias, even though I could browse shares on the server, using the alias.
While not explicitly covering 2012 R2, this KB article helped me:
KB2546625.
Adding the alias to the local hosts file solved it for me.
Now, I wanted to be sure that I wasn't applying a bunch of unnecessary tweaks, so I went ahead and removed all registry tweaks (including DnsOnWire mentioned in the KB article), the SPN entry for the alias and rebooted - it still works!
In my case, maybe on Windows Server 2012 R2 in general, all that was needed was to add the alias in the local hosts file. -
Windows Server 2012 - Printing using UNC path not working
Hi,
I have a problem printing using the printer's UNC path ("\\Server_Name\Printer_Hostname") to work with a web
app hosted on IIS 8. With a windows forms application the UNC path is working fine and the app prints.
With
the web app I receive an error "The data area passed to a system call is tool small".
Also,
in the event viewer under Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> PrintService -> Operational, I receive the error "The print spooler failed to reopen an existing printer connection because it could not read the configuration information
from the registry key S-1-5-82-1980832875-2702362896-1795126167-3622310632-1152289074\Printers\Connections. The print spooler could not open the registry key. This can occur if the registry key is corrupt or missing, or if the registry recently became unavailable."I have contacted IIS forum support.
Please review the link: http://forums.iis.net/p/1213109/2079229.aspx?Re+Windows+Server+2012+Printing+using+UNC+path+not+working
Their final response:
Printing from ASP.NET using System.Drawing.Printing itself is a horrible approach, as this namespace was designed for Windows Forms only. The designers did not take everything about ASP.NET in mind, so any issue can happen. That can answer why the HP model
works while the Samsung fails, as the HP one just "happens
to work",
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.printing.printdocument.aspx
Similarly, System.Printing was designed just for WPF.
About which printing API to use in ASP.NET/IIS, there is no clear answer so far. Thus, your only resource is Microsoft support, who can perform further analysis (with their dedicate utilities and of course Windows source code) and might come across a solution
to help you out. This is not a trivial scenario. -
Hello,
we are currently migrating from Windows Server 2012 to 2012 R2 and are not able to get the new Direct Access Service up and running. Our goal is to establish DirectAccess connection for a handful of clients using the IPHTTPS-adapter on the default port 443.
Errors:
There is actually no error showing up. It seems the infrastructure tunnel cannot be created but none of the IPv6-transition adapters is connecting (teredo and 6-to-4 are down) and the IPHTTPs adapter gives no informations about a problem:
>Get-DAConnectionStatus
Status : Error
Substatus : CouldNotContactDirectAccessServer
>Get-NetIPHttpsState
LastErrorCode : 0x0
InterfaceStatus : Failed to connect to the IPHTTPS server; waiting to reconnect
Setup:
Our setup is a virtualized Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard running on Hyper-V. It is located behind a NAT having the Port 443 mapped to the server. The only role installed after the basic install is RRAS including DirectAccess and VPN. The assistants completed
successfully (running the configuration for DirectAccess and VPN). Operation Status says everything is green und working (for multiple days in the meanwhile). A previous direct access installation (on a different machine running Windows Server 2012) has
been removed before installing the new server. The new installation is using a different router, so this might also be the cause of a problem.
The client is a Windows 8.1 notebook located outside the company network accessing the internet through another NAT-device. The client has been able to connect to the previous DirectAccess setup but has never been able to establish a connection after the
setup of the new Direct Access server. The device has no outbound constraints concerning the NAT-device and is only running the integrated Windows Firewall.
Diagnosis:
So far I've done some basic DNS and connectivity checks. The DNS-name can be resolved correctly and the router even responds to pings. The port forward is working and HTTPs connections are generally possible (temporarily routed the port to
access the NLS-Website located on the server, which worked fine).
Network monitor shows that both computers are communicating, traffic on the expected Port 443 is incoming on the server and responses from the server reach the client.
Opening the IPHTTPs-url and in an endless page load. Sometime the browser page closes but I've never seen any result. Using telnet on the port shows that the server is accepting connections. I've even build a small test application that does a GET-Request
on the URL returning HTTP-200 and no content.
I'm currently running out of ideas what to do and since no error occurs this is kind of a bit frustrating. Any help appreciated.
Regards
MatthiasHi,
In addition, have you disabled the DA client components on the DA client? If no, please also check
the settings on the Name Resolution Policy Table.
More information:
DirectAccess
Client Location Awareness – NRPT Name Resolution
In addition, error 0x4C9 means the remote computer refused the network connection. It may be due to the invalid
registry or corrupt drivers. For more detailed information, please refer to the link below:
Error 1225 - Error Code 0x4C9

Hi everyone,
I've got a little problem and maybe someone here could help me a little.
I've installed the essential experience role on my 2012 R2 standard server and I configured all the stuff to connect my server via remote web access. Unfotunatly, I the connection doesn't work and i've got an error message like "Impossible to connect

Is it right to install SQL server on Virtual Machine ?
Is it possible SQL Server 2014 Standard installed one of the cluster machine and RD Connection Broker enable both cluster machine and make HA of RD Connection Broker HA ?
What is the best way to achieve to enable RD Connection broker with in Cluster machine(2 Node) ?
Please any one guide to us.

VenkiHi Venki,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Generally the error which you are facing occurs due to permission and security issue on SQL server. we need to specify the permission during RDCB setting. Here suggest to create the database manually and check the result.
CREATE DATABASE 'rds_db'
Where rds_db is the database specified in your connection string
DRIVER=SQL Server Native Client 11.0;SERVER=<SQL Server Name>;Trusted_Connection=Yes;APP=Remote Desktop Services Connection Broker;DATABASE=<DB Name>
Grant DBO permissions to the service account on the RDS server and try to run your wizard again.
Also when configuring RDCB HA, we need to create a local folder to store database which is “Remote SQL file systems”. And if local path is used create a folder on the root directory of the SQL Server (C:\RDCB).
Please check below article for more information.

I am setting up redundancy for another RD Connection Broker? What is the earliest version of SQL that i can use in Windows Server 2012?
Hi,
SQL Server 2008 R2 is listed as the minimum version. I have not tried earlier versions for use with RDCB.

Hello, We have multiple Server 2003 Print server and are working on testing a Server 2012 print server. We have run into an issue where a PRINTER (type 4, normal) works with our Windows 7 32 bit clients, Windows 8.1 64 bit clients and the
2012 R2 server, but when trying to install to a windows 7 64 bit clients using \\SERVER\PRINTER we are getting the above message. (The printer is not offered currently in the directory).
I have been scouring the Google and Bing and have yet to find a satisfactory description that matches this issue. Nor have I found other information that resolve this issue. Like, blaming this on the spooler or DLL fixes or Reg hacks (applied
on the client side).
Specifically, we have used the native 2012 R2 drivers "Ricoh Class Driver", "HP LaserJet 4240 PCL6 Class Driver" and "Xerox Phaser 6120 Class Driver"
If I use a Type 3 driver from Xerox I am able to print from the Windows 7 64 bit client to the print device, but I was hoping to get all of my clients onto 1 driver. I understand that I might be able to use some sort of WMI filtering in our GPO
deployments for the Windows 7 64 bit clients when we go live but this sort of <gs class="GINGER_SOFTWARE_mark" ginger_software_uiphraseguid="55af8faf-887d-4ea5-9032-7c14b199df0f" id="db4a1e65-db1b-4c94-bd84-20ffc96288ce">henky</gs>.
Please, provide some knowledge. Either a solution to this issue or acknowledgement that separate driver will be required. Thank You!!!!!Hi,
Firstly, please run this "Fix It" tool (Full mode) to reset the print splooer and driver:

Windows Server 2012 Essentials (not R2) - all client computers offline
The server is Windows Server 2012 Essentials (not R2). I have had this problem ever since I first installed the Windows Server 2012 Essentials server in the summer of 2013 (before R2 was released). The Windows Server 2012 Essentials server shows offline
for all Devices under Dashboard. (Allow me to add that I just installed another site with Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2, and it was a breeze - all of the computers at the second install site are online.) I have one Windows 8.1 Pro client and the rest
are Windows 7 Pro clients. The problem occurs on ALL client computers.
I have removed computers from Devices in Dashboard on the server, rebooted the server, changed the client computer to a workgroup, rebooted the client computer, and reinstalled the connector software on the client computer. Same result. I
have tried this on a Windows 7 Pro client and a Windows 8.1 Pro client with the same results.
After running the connector on a client computer and waiting for the server to update its Devices status, if I look under Devices on the server Dashboard, the Windows 8.1 client computer will say online but within 24 hours it goes offline again. The
Windows 7 client computers never show online. Both computers stay offline - they NEVER show an online status (referring to the status under Devices in Dashboard).
I should make it clear that the clients can access the server shares with no problem. File synchronization works great. The clients can ping the server and the server can ping the clients. But client backups on the server fail.
One of the most troublesome things about this problem is that it prevents the client computers from being accessed remotely using the website setup by Anywhere Access. I can login to get remote access to the shared files on the server, but
the only computer that says "online" is the server. All of the other computers are "offline".
The server and clients are only using Windows firewall. The clients all use Microsoft Security Essentials for their anti-virus.
I used a troubleshooting tool that tells me that there are problems with port 6602 on the server, but the clients are all fine with port 6602. I know port 6602 is important for using Anywhere Access but I am still trying to find out more details on that.
I have checked all of the firewall settings related to port 6602 on the server, and the firewall settings look like the standard Windows settings for this port. I used netstat to find the PID associated with the port, and I looked up the PID to find the service.
That all looked standard, too.
I have been working on this problem since the summer of 2013!! Does anyone have ANY suggestions?!!
HELP!Hi,
Just addition, please check if all necessary Windows updates are installed on those
“Offline” client computer.
When connect client computers to the Windows Server 2012 Essentials server by using the Connector software, there
will be LAUNCHPAD on the client computer. Was this LAUNCHPAD grayed out? Please check if can access Shared Folders via this LAUNCHPAD. Meanwhile, please ping the Windows Server 2012 Essentials via IP address and server name when client computers show as
Offline. Any find?
Get Connected in Windows Server Essentials
In addition, please follow the path on Server and client computer:
%programdata%\Microsoft\Windows Server\Logs. Did you check any relevant Server-side logs and
Client-side Logs if find more clues?
Windows
Server Essentials 2012/2012 R2 Log Files
If any update, please feel free to let us know.
Hope this helps.

No process is on the other end of the pipeHi,
Check if SQL Server service is running fine. I doubt you may have changed the user account password used for SQL Server service. After restarting the machine, you also need to update the user account of SQL Server service in Configuration
Manager. Re-type the user account name and password under Log on tab and see how it helps.
Thanks.

Windows Home Server vs. Windows Server 2012
I have used Windows Home Server 2011 but I have problems with connections and backups. Is Windows Server 2012 more reliable to use with computer backups?
NikoriosHello,
i suggest that you ask in
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/home?category=windowshomeserver about the backup problems you have.
Also for the connection problem ask there. For me this sounds as a configuration problem.
I am pretty sure that the Server itself is able to run backups and connections.

Situation : My users are connected with RDP on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Remote Desktop Service and when they log on, their share printers are installed.
When some users open a pdf file, they can't print it. When they try to print a file, nothing happen... No file sent to the printer...
I have seen a difference between the shortcut icon of adobe reader for users who have this problem and others.
No Problem :

If someone can help me
Thanks !Hi Ajlan,
To fix my problem, i uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and rebooted again.
For some users, this fix the problem but with some others i had to define Adobe Reader by default again.
I tried without use "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool" before and adobe reader X wasn't really uninstall.
Thanks,

Just want to enable more than 2 concurrent RDP on Server 2012
All I want to do to enable more than two concurrent RDP connections to some of my Server 2012. And that requirement is at this moment for some domain users (for 15 users out of 300 users), I don’t want to publish any remote apps or give user a web
link to logon. I just want user to do RDP from local desktop like they are doing now.
Honestly speaking, when I read this, it confuse me well enough as I don’t understand RDS well.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd378949(v=ws.10).aspx
However when I see lots of TechNet forums, it just confuse me more
Currently I have Terminal Server licencing server for 2008R2 and I understand that I can’t use this licencing server due to version incapability
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/14988.rds-and-ts-cal-interoperability-matrix.aspx
I would like to know what do from start to finish step by step
So what I understood that I will need to
1
Commission a new 2012 R2 server for RDS Service deployment
2
Deploy RDS 2012 Services
on the new server
3
Activate Licencing service on the new server
4
On this server, install User CALs on the licencing server and then
Manage RDS CAL for 15 Users by RD Licencing Manager.
Questions
Do I have to activate/install anything on the 2012 servers, where I want to more than two concurrent RDP connection
2. As in my production environment I have Terminal services 2008 working, will the new version of terminal service run side by side or I will need to migrate all the older version of licences/services to the newer version?
3. Is there any risk of creating disruption/trouble on the existing terminal services infrastructure?
If so what are they and how to manage those?
4. The new RDS service deployment has lots of functions, like RDCB, RDWA,RDSH and in addition RDGW, RDVH and RDLI, not sure, which I need to configure.
I understood that I just need to activate and configure RDLI. Did I understand correctly or I need to configure other thinks as well.Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
From your comment, it’s clear that you need more than 2 remote session in your environment and you need to install and activate the RD License server\CAL as you have listed. Now what you can do is, on server 2012 R2 you can act as RD License server and on server
2012 you can just install RDSH role so that you can have more than 2 connection for your environment.
From server 2012\R2 we can manage all the server with RDCB role as middle-man and can install RDSH role on other server and point finally to RD License server so that we can get available CAL for use.
The old environment will run side-by side but as per my suggestion I would say that you migrate all your old to new one so you can enjoy all new feature and can maintain from single point.
In regards to your last question, it depends on your requirement that what you want to use. You can refer following thread for information.
