Windows 2012 adds an incorrect name when creating a PTR Record in a /56 reverse zone using MMC

Hello,
I have created a reverse lookup zone for 2001:bc8:3f83:0200::/56, when I add a PTR record for 2001:bc8:3f83:0200::200:99, the MMC snap-in adds a zero group in my address and adds a record for 2001:bc8:3f83:0200:0000:0000:0000:200:99.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the name of PTR record(IPv6) displayed as 2001:bc8:3f83:0200:0000:0000:0000:200:99, but when open its Properties, the Host IP address option displayed as 2001:bc8:3f83:0200:0000:0000:200:99.
I have the similar problem on my test device Windows Server 2012, but this problem do not occurred on Windows Server 2012 R2. They have different ways to type the Host IP address. And it is may be related to the prefix digit number – not the integer multiple
of 16.
You may try to update your server to the latest version. Or a work around way to manually add the PTR record of IPv6 by command line:
dnscmd <ServerName> /RecordAdd <ZoneName> <NodeName> [/Aging] [/OpenAcl] [<Ttl>] PTR <HostName>|<DomainName>

How to show 'No Records Found' and 'Employee Name Unknown' in oracle report

Hello,
I'm using 6i and building a report to show employees who have incorrectly input their time. I have an input parameter so a user can select a specific employee by emp_id or can leave it empty to show all. That part works. I also have date parameters that are required. That works too. However I am having trouble displaying 'NO Records Found' if the date parameters have no late or rejected employee time records. I currently have it as a text field arranged behind the emp_name field which i filled white. It works...however i have a pretty good feeling there is a better way to do this. Also, I have some data that is null since i am using two tables. There are time stamps with no emp_name or emp_number. I still need to show these records but want them to show up as "Employee Name Unknown" that way the user doesnt get confused and thinks the emp_name in the row above also includes this row.
select e.location "Clock Location",
e.emp_no "Emp No",
l.first_name ||' ' || last_name "Name",
e.time_stamp "Time",
from emp_time e, master_all l
where e.emp_no (+) = l.emp_no
and e.status = 'rejected'
--and e.emp_no = nvl (:p_emp_no, emp_no)
--and e.time_stamp between :p_start_date and :p_end_date

Hi,
So, when the join between emp_time and master_all produces no rows, you still want one row of output, saying 'No Records Found'; is that right?
If so, you can outer-join the result set to dual, with some join condition that accepts anything.
Use CASE (or equivalents) to get special values (like 'No Record Found' or 'Employee name unknown') when certain columns are NULL.
For example:
SELECT     j.location     AS "Clock Location"
,     j.emp_no     AS "Emp No"
,     CASE
          WHEN j.name     IS NULL
          THEN 'No Records Found'
          ELSE j.name
     END          AS "Name"
,     time_stamp     AS "Time"
FROM     dual     d
,     (     -- Begin in-line view j, join of emp_time and master_all
          SELECT     e.location
          ,     e.emp_no
          ,     CASE
                   WHEN l.first_name IS NULL
                   AND       last_name    IS NULL
                   THEN 'Employee name unknown'
                   ELSE l.first_name || ' ' || last_name
               END     AS name
          FROM      emp_time     e
          ,     master_all     l
          WHERE     e.emp_no (+)       = l.emp_no
          AND      e.status (+)       = 'rejected'
--           AND     e.emp_no (+)        = NVL (:p_emp_no, emp_no)
--           AND      e.time_stamp (+) BETWEEN :p_start_date
                                         AND        :p_end_date
     ) j     -- End in-line view j, join of emp_time and master_all
WHERE     d.dummy     != j.name (+)
;In an outer join, all conditions involiving the optional table need a + sign; otherwise, the effect is the same as an inner join.
The message 'No Records Found' is a string, so it has to go in a string column.
I put it in the "Name" column, just because I knew that "Name" was a string.
You can put in in any other column if you wish. If that column is not already a string, then use TO_CHAR to make it a string.
You could also have a column just for this message.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data.
DOUBLE U wrote:
I've tried nvl in the select statement but since emp_name is a concatination of first and last name it doesnt work. This is what i have tried
nvl(l.first_name|' '||l.last_name,'NO EMPLOYEE RECORD FOUND') "Employee",I assume you meant to have two | characters, not just one, after first_name.
The first argument to NVL will never be NULL in that case; it will always contain at least a space, whether or not the other columns are NULL. You could say:
NVL ( NULLIF ( l.first_name || ' ' || l.last_name
    , 'NO EMPLOYEE RECORD FOUND'
    )        "Employee",bujt I find it less confusing to use CASE, as shown above.

Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed

Hello, I have a problem with outlook. I can't send e-mail. When I try - recеive a answеr with this: 550 5.7.1 Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed.
How I can fix it?
Thanks,

Hi,
This error normally occurs when there are restrictions or No permission to relay through. So Please confirm if it works from Outlook web access for the same recipient, also share some more information about your server environment.

[Solved] postfix local mail delivery fails

Hi Guys,
on my home pc i use postfix (gmail as a smtp relay) and fetchmail for sending/receiving mails, this works very well, however sending a mail to a local user fails, I'm lost here and need your help guys.
if i send a mail like :
$>echo "Test" | mail -s "Test : local mail delivery" "andy"
The mail stays in the queue for ever...
$>mailq

# SOFT BOUNCE
# The soft_bounce parameter provides a limited safety net for

# delivery agent for local delivery. You need to update the
# local_recipient_maps setting if:
# - You define $mydestination domain recipients in files other than
# /etc/passwd, /etc/aliases, or the $virtual_alias_maps files.
# For example, you define $mydestination domain recipients in

# - You redefine the "local_transport" setting in main.cf.
# - You use the "luser_relay", "mailbox_transport", or "fallback_transport"
# feature of the Postfix local delivery agent (see local(8)).
# Details are described in the LOCAL_RECIPIENT_README file.
# Beware: if the Postfix SMTP server runs chrooted, you probably have
# to access the passwd file via the proxymap service, in order to

# If you change the alias database, run "postalias /etc/aliases" (or

I have solved it, and this was the problem (main.cf) message_size_limit = 0 i have set this to unlimited "0" so bigger mails not get rejected by postfix, the defualt value was 10240000 (~10 Mb) after finally checking the postfix log with journalctl -u postfix (because /var/log/mail.log) is not used anymore i found this line : "fatal: main.cf configuration error: mailbox_size_limit is smaller than message_size_limit" after setting mailbox_size_limit to unlimited "0" postfix starts to delivery local mail.

HT1277 I receive delivery failed emails for emails I never sent

I receive "delivery failed" emails for emails I never sent to email addresses I don't recognize. Who do I contact?

Welcome to the Internet. Here, have some spam. :-)
You're either being spammed (and your mail filters aren't fully dialed in and set to ignore or delete this dreck), or your email address was forged (as the return address) by a spammer sending out messages to others and folks that don't know how to properly configure and operate an email servers are now causing collateral damage by reflecting that spam run back at you. (No spammer really wants to deal with all those bounced messages, after all.)
It's possible that your mail address has been acquired by a spammer, but it's equally possible that - if your email address has a common name or string to the left of the @ sign - that the spammers determined your address by brute force, too.
And yes, make sure your email passwords are not in the stock attack dictionaries (the list of the five or ten thousand most common passwords are widely known), and (if your ISP permits it) use SSL/TLS (encrypted) transports to access your ISP mail server.

When I send a text message it says delivery failed. When I resend it sends the message twice. Why am I having problems?

Oh goodness! We want your text going through the first time, dria56. Does this happen when you're messaging someone in particular or is it every message you send? Is it a plain text or a message with more than 160 characters/graphics/pictures?

Thank you for replying. Yes I deleted the old email address..

Delivery fails: "The server response was: 4.7.0 Temporary server error. Please try again later. PRX3"

Trying to setup an Exchange 2013 server, with the DC and Exchange on same machine. WHen I try to deliver for either of the 2 mailboxes I have setup, I get this error.
The server returned status code 451 - Error in processing. The server response was: 4.7.0 Temporary server error. Please try again later. PRX3
It doesn't seem to be a resource issue (I'm running an XL instance on Azure), and all other connectivity works fine (and fast). I just can't receive email there.
Looking in the event logs, I saw one issue related to the Front End HTTP proxy, but I wouldn't assume that's relevant here. (And connectivity via Outlook & OWA seem to be fine, with the exception
of some redirect issues on the latter).
I did end up installing Exchange on a secondary drive for space considerations, so the location is different... not sure if that would factor in either.
Any ideas? I don't even really know where to start debugging this. I'm trying to set this up to work on some event sync/forwarding code.

Ok, I think I solved my problem but figured I would update here for others who may be running into the same issue.
In my \Exchange\TransportRoles\Logs\FrontEnd\ProtocolLog\SmtpReceive\*.LOG, I found more detailed information on the issue.
"Message or connection acked with status Retry and response
451 4.4.0 Error encountered while communicating with primary target IP address: ""421 4.2.1 Unable to connect.""
Attempted failover to alternate host, but that did not succeed. Either there are no alternate hosts, or delivery failed to all alternate hosts. The last endpoint attempted was 10.10.10.1:2525"
I thought creating an endpoint for 25 would be sufficient, but once I created another endpoint for 2525 then my tests started working.

SMS delivery failed all of a sudden

Yosemite mac mail drowning in mail delivery failed messages I didn't send!

babs bellNov 14, 2014 7:03 PM
Since upgrading to Yosemite, I am getting hundreds (tens of thousands this week!) emails that read:
From: Mail Delivery System
Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
But I didn't send any of the emails! I've spent this entire week deleting them, working on phone with my server who claims to have fixed it (NOT!), and 5 hours on phone support with Apple today. Still happening. There must be a setting that is screwed up in Yosemite, eh? Who can help me? Using Mac Mail on Mac Book Pro. I'm drowning here! GLUG. Thanks!
Edit

Did all of that with Apple and they nor my server thought this was the problem, nor did they get it resolved. I'm wondering if there's a rule in Mail preferences that I accidentally deleted that could be the cause. There were two rules and neither made any sense to me but as soon as I deleted the first one, I realized I probably shouldn't have. And there's been a huge problem since...not sure that's why but I must find the resolution. I did have genieo somehow installed so Apple got it uninstalled and did tons of things to my system to clean this and that. BUT the problem remains. If you use mac mail and Yosemite, can you check the two rules that automatically were in the mail preferences window to tell me what rule I deleted? Thank you so very much!

"Mail Delivery Failed:returning message to sender" recipients not familiar

I am getting a "Mail Delivery Failed" message. The address' that failed are to recipients I am not familiar with and have not tried to email. Has my email been hijacked?

I'm getting the same problem ... only it happens to anyone who sends a message TO me. This only happens on my .mac address --- not other email addresses that I use. It's as if the .mac smtp code is ADDING a bcc to any message sent to me! All the comments to date have been less than encouraging - surely SOMETHING can be done about this! No?

Error: Photo Delivery Failed

Every time I try to email a photo I get this error:
Photo Delivery Failed
A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Operation could not be completed.
(NSStreamSocketSSLErrorDomain error -9829.)
My default e-mail account is GMail imap, and I have no problem sending text-only email messages.
Any thoughts?

I'm having this issue now on my iPhone.
I'm using Gmail via POP to send email. I can send text messages w/o any problems, however when I send photos I get the following error:
Photo Delivery Failed
A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Operation could not be completed. (NSStreamSocketSSLErrorDomain error -9829.)
I assume that the fix is to delete my email account on my iphone and then resync or something similar... but before I do this I'm hoping that someone can verify a set of steps to solve this issue.

"photo delivery failed" yet photos are received and keep sending

i have the first gen iphone and have a problem since november, sending photos...getting the error message "Photo Delivery Failed" yet photos are received and it keeps sending it 3 - 6 times. the first time it happened it sent up to 40 times to the annoyance of my family....unfortunately i had sent the photo to several family members! i shut off the phone completely. but once i rebooted the next day, it continued resending and giving me the error message, just not so many times now. i am reluctant to send photos to anybody now. but i know it still happens because i send photos from my iphone for work purposes to my work email quite often. (my employer won't allow to install itunes to download them on my work computer...)

Ok, I'm not the only one having this problem! Anyone? I've tried deleting the yahoo account and reinstalling and that hasn't worked.
