Create new dynamic distribution group as filter office location

Hi
I want to create new dynamic distribution group as filter office location. So I would like to request you please suggest the script through Power shell or graphical interface.
In case you need more clarification please revert back.

If you don't use OUs to separate your users and use the 'Office' field in Active Directory you can create Dynamic lists for this property as well.
The Office field, which stores its information in the physicalDeliveryOfficeName attribute of the object, can be referenced to create a list by using this PowerShell command:
New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name <LIST NAME> -RecipientFilter {office -eq '<OFFICE NAME OR LOCATION>'} -RecipientContainer '<LOCATION OF USERS ALLOWED IN THE LIST>' -OrganizationalUnit '<LOCATION OF WHERE LIST WILL BE STORED IN ACTIVE
DIRECTORY' -Alias 'LIST ALIAS'

How do I Create and Manage one library for several computers

As our family has grown over the years, we have 4 kids and 6 macs and duplicate images scattered thought all the separate computers in their own libraries. Is there a way to create and manage one central library that all computers access? That way we can reduce the headaches when we need an image and have to go to each computer and search it's library. Not to mention when we need to jump on a computer and it doesn't happen to be the one we have our library on and need to download our pictures and they end up forever lost on a different computer.

You cannot share a library over the network, since a library needs to be on a locally mounted volume, but you can put a shared library onto a "sneaker drive" and plug it into each of your mad in turn, see Apple's support document:
iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201517
iPhoto does not support to merge libraries. But iPhoto Library Manager can.
You can download it here: http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/
See : http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/Help/merging%20libraries.html
Or, if you have Aperture, you can use it to merge libraries. Aperture 3.3: How to use Aperture to merge iPhoto libraries

Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad?

Can I create and manage collections in itunes instead of on the ipad? I have hundreds (maybe thousands) of PDF files for technical work items that I need to categorize and use on my ipad but it is a bit cumbersome to manually move them one at a time on the ipad.

While you can add pdf files to iTunes it is not really intended to be used for organizing things other than a music collection. It will only accept PDF files and media (audio, movie) files. On the other hand if you can creatively come up with a way to make it work for you then go for it.

Just i need to write a single line in log file.

Any way i can create and manage SharePoint 2013 workflows in browser.

Guys,
is there any way i can created and manager sharepoint 2013 workflows in browser like Nintex lets you do. This will eliminate the need for sharepoint designer.
thanks
MM

No. SharePoint's work flows are created from SharePoint Designer or Visual Studio. Third party solutions like Nintex have other approaches.

How do I create, and send a group email on my iPhone?

How do I create, and send a group email from my iPhone 4?

How to send group email without additional APP
Just spent an hour on ichat. Long and short....can't send group email. The group name appears in the TO: line, but if you click on the group name, only the first email address is blue..the rest are black and will not get the email. We tired using the CC and BC lines...same result.
However here is one solution:
I sent one email with each of the group (we are only 9 ) in the TO: line. I included my primary email. When it came to the iphone, i moved it to one of the subfolders. (Each account you may have has a list of the inbox at the top and Account at the bottom. ... that is where you can access the subfolder)
I moved the email with all names to that subfolder. I can then, open it ...do a relpy to all and just change the message and subject line. It is cumbersome, but it does work. I really think Apple, a company committed to ease of use, needs to review this flaw. I suspect it may be a bandwidth economy .... and i feel the pain of the providers...but you did create the beast.

Managing Distribution Groups with hidden membership (when hideDLMembership is true)

Hi All,
I have a
situation in a Exchange 2010 SP2 messaging environments where we want to manage two distribution groups through Outlook client and want to ensure that its membership is visible to none but the distribution group owners.
I have followed this article "http://blogs.technet.com/b/kamleshk/archive/2013/08/22/3478284.aspx" but in my case the owner can't see the membership.
The Outlook client version is 2007.
I have enabled "MyDistributionGroups" in the default role assignment policy to enable Distribution Group management by end users.
We use Outlook Anywhere but I have tried to add the registry Key "DS Server" but no way.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Simone,
How about in OWA?
If OWA works well, it should be an issue on the Outlook Client side.
If OWA not works neither, it still the permission issue. It need sometimes to sync the operation.
Please run following command to verify the owner permission:
Get-DistributionGroup -Indentity DGName | FL

Can't manage distribution group from Outlook with Exchange 2010 or Exchange 2013 mailbox

Hi All,
In my environment we are using exchange 2010 that contains the distribution groups which has been migrated from exchange 2003 environment .On that one of the distribution group is having an problem for the user who had an access to manage DL'S via outlook
but he can't able to manage it.When we add the new user to manage same DL and the new user tries to manage the DL via outlook it happens without any issues.
issue occurs only for the user who has already have the manage access permission on the DL where the group was on exchange 2003 before migrated to exchange 2010.
Reffered blog : http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2586832?wa=wsignin1.0
We have done all the settings defined on the above mentioned link but still we are facing the issue.
In addition to that , we have forcefully upgraded the DL too by using the below mentioned command.
set-distributiongroup -identity "name of the problematic DL" -forceupgrade
Please all of you provide your valuable suggestions to overcome this issue .

S.Nithyanandham
Thanks S.Nithyanandham

Hi S.Nithyanandham,
From your description, I would like to verify if the problematic manager user is a member of security group. If yes, this issue will occur. In Exchange 2010, distribution groups can't be managed by groups, only individual users can manage groups. But in
Exchange 2003, it is possible to use groups to manage a distribution group.
For more information, here is a blog for your reference.

Create separate dynamic distribution groups for each UPNs domain

Hi All,
we have several UPNs in our Domain and need to create separate distribution groups for each UPNs.
the command that I used is,
new-dynamicdistributiongroup -name GroupName -RecipientFilter {(UserPrincipalName -like‘*@connect.test.local’)}
but this returns an error saying "Exception setting "RecipientFilter": "Invalid filter syntax"
what is the exact way of creating distribution group in O365 by filtering the UPN domain name?
Many thanks

File Server Migration - For ORG A Forest to ORG B Forest ( Need to create and Map Security Group automatically on new Migrated Folders - Please Help

I have two forest With Trust works Fine .
I have file server in ORG – A ( Forest ) with 2003 R2 Standard
I have a File server in ORG - B ( Forest ) With Windows server 2012 ( New Server for Migration )
I have 1000 + folders with each different permission sets on ORG-A. We are using Security groups for providing permission on the share Folders on ORG A
I need to Migrate all the folders from ORG – A to ORG – B.
I am looking for an automated method of creating Security Groups on AD during the Migration, Once the Migration is Done, I can add the required users to the security groups manually.
Example.
Folder 1 on ORG – A has Security Group Called SEC-FOLDER1-ORGA
I need an automated method of Copying the files to ORG – B and Creating a new security Groups on ORG –B Forest with the same permission on parent and child Folders. I shall Add the users manually to the Group.
Output Looks Like
Folder 1 on ORG – B has Permission called SEC-FOLDER1-ORGB ( New Security Group )
Also I need a summarized report of security Group Mapping, Example – Which security Group on ORGA is mapped with Security Group Of ORGB

Hi,
I think you can try ADMT to migrate your user group to target domain/forest first. Once user groups are migrated, you can use Robocopy to copy files with permission - that permission will continue be recognized in new domain as you migrated already.

Cannot manage Distribution group membership when two exchange accounts are configured in outlook.

Hi,
I am using outlook 2013 and my exchange server is 2013 too.
I have a distribution group named "[email protected]" and my user "[email protected]" is moderator of this DL and i was able to add/remove members from this.
Now, I own one more exchange account as "[email protected]" and i configured the same in outlook 2013 as an exchange account and what i see is i am unable to edit the DL "[email protected]"
My default account in outlook is "[email protected]" still i cant edit the DL. As i delete the account "[email protected]" from outlook or configures it ([email protected]) as an IMAP i am able to moderate "[email protected]".
Any Clue ???
Error message :- "Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object."
My Exchange server 2013 and outlook both are having latest updates installed. Thanks.

I have configured second account as Exchange only in the same Outlook profile. I don't want to switch my profiles to operate the either the accounts.
Both the accounts are different and don't have any relevancy to each other. "[email protected]" and "[email protected]"
What i suppose is, "[email protected]" is having permissions on the DL "[email protected]"
but "[email protected]" dosent have it. So when i edit "[email protected]" outlook is
using "[email protected]" to edit it and not "[email protected]"

Error creating and modifying protection groups

When modifying or creating a new protection group I periodically get a DPM 945 event with this text:
<FatalServiceError><__System><ID>19</ID><Seq>27</Seq><TimeCreated>1/6/2012 4:54:22 AM</TimeCreated><Source>DpmThreadPool.cs</Source><Line>163</Line><HasError>True</HasError></__System><ExceptionType>SqlException</ExceptionType><ExceptionMessage>Cannot

The statement has been terminated.</ExceptionMessage><ExceptionDetails>System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'owner_sid', table 'msdb.dbo.sysjobs'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The error seems to have the following pattern:
1. I log on and launch the MMC. Modification of the protection group works.
2. Try to do a second modification and the error occurs.
3. Log out and log back in, relaunch the MMC and I can modify the protection group.
Seems like a bug?
Rob

In further testing with the Release Candidate...here is what is happening:
1. Any change to a protection group or creating a new one causes the error.
2. It does not happen the first time when modifying a protection group. Only subsequent modifications.
3. It happens with protection groups with and without Exchange, a change from my earlier statement.

[OBIEE Security] create and manage user without entreprise manager

Currently, the user creation and role assignment is done at company manager.
I want to allow a small group of users to manage the rights (access to reports for example) to other users. All this without going through corporate manager.
Is this possible?
Best regards,
Ben

No, you cannot create user accounts in answers. If you are using default ldap from weblogic, all the users must be created in weblogic. If you do external table authentication, then you can add as many users as you want to the table based on your needs.
Assign points if helpful.

What is the easiest way to create and manage very big forms?

I need to create a form that will contain few hundred questions. Could you please give me some advise on what is the easiest way to do that? I mean for example is it easier to create everything in Word (since it is easier to manage) and than create a form based on that?
My concern is that when I will have a very big form, containing different kinds of questions and with many scripts, managing it during work will be slow and difficult, for example adding a question in the middle of the form which would require moving half of the questions down which could smash the layout etc.
What is the best practise for that?
Thanks in advance

Try using Table and Rows for this kind of forms. These forms will have the same look throught with a question and and answer section..
In the future if you want to add a new section, you can simply add rows in between..
Thanks
