Domain name when my windows machine (pc) is on VPN

Hi!
Last week I had issue to get doman name Solaris machines and with the help of folks here I could solve the issue. After a gap of 1 week I have to work on the same assignment and now I have issue to get domain name when my windows machine (pc) is on VPN. It may be possible, with VPN I may not be able to get the domain.
h1. What is needed?
I am looking for a java Api which can return me "myCompany.com", when my PC is on VPN.
Following if the out put of ipconfig
C:\Documents and Settings\sgupta>ipconfig
Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
h1. What is already tried?
<ol><li>I have tried InetAddress API's but they return "global.myCompanytronix.com" from the local configuration.</li>
<li>I also tried the following library to get the domain name and that fails to get the same.</li>

Kindly give me some clues if you have.

Update-PROBLEM FIXED by verizon support. I called my local verizon wireless store, who quickly got me tech support after running through a few things. I didn't know you could disable power management for just one device, but verizon tech support did! So you go into device manager, expand universal serial bus controllers, right click the first "root hub", click the power tab, and see if your device shows up. If it doesn't, continue this process through all the root hubs until it does.
When you find it, select it, and click the power management tab on the far right. Uncheck "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". Restart the computer to save this setting. Then test it by putting the computer to sleep.
It did take about 30 seconds until the pantech uml 290 was connected, but it connected successfully three times in a row. I'm very happy with both the verizon store and verizon tech support. They were both very helpful and pleasant to talk t, and efficiently resolved the problem. I still think you pay too much for mobile broadband, and am a little put off that the problem existed in the first place, but I'm very happy to have this problem resolved.
One other piece of info. I got was that there is an upgrade, pantech 295 usb modem for only 30.00. So if I have any more problems I'll just try that. (It's still a wired, not wireless device, which I prefer.)

Custom Domain name for Azure virtual machine using azure websites

Hie, I am using a cloud service (e.g cloud1) and it has a hosted VM in it (Windows server 2012). It is having a URL cloud1.cloudapp.net. So I want to use the domain name (e.g azuresite1.azurewebsites.net)created from azure.
So how do I add the Cname record and everything in this setup .
I already tried to use
this but that didn't work
What additional steps are required to add custom domain name to an azure virtual machine and, the custom domain name is also an azure website

If you want to use azuresite1.zurewebsites.net then i think, you have to create a azurewebsite. If you have a custom domain then following should work.
You have findout the IP that is attached to the VM.
Point your domain name to that IP (using domain dashboard)
Now your domain points to whatever the site hosted on the VM (port 80)
If you have more sites then, you have specify HostName for the site which you want to use with domain name.
Try and let me know if this helped.

6.1 What is the Domain Name when using LDAP

Hi,
We are currently installing Tidal 6.1, we are going to integrate Oracle Directory Server for LDAP (not AD).
Qustion is, what is the domain name we have to provide when we install?
Master and CM both on Linux.
Thanks!

Do you know any document which shows LDAP compatibility?
I havent seen on Intsallation Guide.
Problem is, when I install, linux servers are on different network (domain) but LDAP contains different domain details. Wondering how Tidal check the domain details when authenticating.
When we give LDAP domain details, it gives following error.
WARN: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: [LDAP: error code 49 - Invalid Credentials]
Anyone know how to increase log level to debug?
Thanks!

Unable to change screen quality when accessing Window machine FROM my Mac

Hi there,
I've been playing around with a copy of Apple Remote Desktop 3.1 and I'm very happy with the results when connecting to a Mac Server from my MacBook. We have quite a slow line so I use the sceen adjuster on the top-right corner of the screen to make the remote screen black & white to speed up the connection. I have another server here which is Windows server running RealVNC. When I connect to that machine and try changing the screen quality to black & white, it does nothing Can anyone change the screen quality when connect to a Windows machine from a Mac running Remote Desktop? If so, could you tell me your setup please?

Mail doesn't recognize a domain name when composing an email

I was trying to email someone from a certain company/vendor, but I didn't remember the reps name.
I knew that their business name was in their domain name though, so I tried typing that into the To: field.
To my surprise, Mail didn't find anything.
Is there a way to turn this feature on, or else can I submit it as a feature request?
I realize that it's possible to use the search box to search for past emails containing a domain name, but this clearly is not my intention, I wanted to compose an email
Thanks

How to specify domain name when starting a new domain

Hello everyone,
Each time I used startWLS.sh (I installed weblogic8.1, and copied start script
from $home/weblogic81/server/bin/startWLS.sh to my new directory) to start the
server, the domain name is always "mydomain". How can I provide the domain names
by myself?
Thank you.
Iris

Set domain name in config.xml
<Domain ConfigurationVersion="7.0.1.0" Name="mydomain">
thanks,

Is there any way to configure domain name in place of IP address for "Peer VPN device"

Hi,
When I configure site to site vpn on asa it asks for the ip address for the remote vpn device and it works pretty fine if I confgure like this.
The problem is that the remote vpn device does not have static IP address, it changes on every reboot. I have configured Dymamic DNS for the interface but the problem is ASA does not take domain name as the "peer vpn device" address.
Is there any work around for this issue so that I don't need to configure vpn from scratch everytime the ip address of the remote device changes.
P.S. ASA vpn configuaration also does not allow me to change just the ip address of the remote device in the VPN configuration, I have to delete the current vpn and confgure a new one from the sratch everytime the ip address changes.
Thanks

Hello Mahendra,
yes you can set a hostname in the 'crypto map set peer' command insetad of IP address, however, the ASA will resolve that name only once it is applied, hence, it will take the IP that name currently holds, and if it changes, it will not update it.
the easy solution for your case is to use static-to-dynamic L2L configuration. on your ASA, configure a dynamic crypto map, assign it to the static crypto map you have, and then add the pre-shared key to the Default L2L tunnel-group.
an example is given below:
crypto dynamic-map dyn_map set transform-set
crypto map VPN ipsec-isakmp dynamic dyn_map
tunnel-group DefaultL2LGroup ipsec-attributes
pre-shared-key
this way, you must initiate the tunnel from behind the remote device (not your ASA where the dynamic crypto map is configured) and it should work fine.
the document below explains that in details:

Error message 5.0.0 invalid domain name when trying to send email??

I can receive emails but can not send out emails. I have contacted my IP several times and gone thru settings several times. We are all stumped. Problem started when we switched from dial up to high speed.

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
Are you running 10.1.x, as your OSX, as indicated by your listed info?
Is the SMTP you are using as the Outgoing Server, the one provided by your ISP?
Have you tried selecting None as the Authentication choice for the Outgoing Server, and entering no Username or Password? With some broadband providers, Mail can authenticate the SMTP by means other than a separate authentication step on the SMTP, and trying to do it again, will result in failure.
Many ISP will say their SMTP must be authenticated, but some do recognize that some email applications, including Mail, can do this in a step that precedes the separate authentication, by Password of the SMTP. In Mail that step is only needed for those SMTP where the name must have the Username appended by the authentication action.
More info, please.

Can I use domain name to access local web (& other) services via VPN?

I've just set up a VPN service for our office but, when connected via VPN, I can't seem to access our Wiki Server via our domain (http://example.private/groups/). Instead it will only let me access it via IP (http://192.168.1.2/groups/)
Is it possible to access it via http://example.private/groups/ and if so what do I need to do?
EDIT: actually, same goes with the local iChat and iCal services too.
Message was edited by: Christiaan

Okay, it's sorted. I phone Apple Support.
The solution is to open Server Admin. Go to VPN Settings, then click on the Client Information tab, then add your local DNS server to the DNS Servers list (in our case 192.168.1.2).
I would have expected the Standard configuration of Leopard Server setup to have added this by default, so I'll submit a bug report when I get a chance.

Window Machines autheticating to Mac OS X computers when they shouldn't

I have a semi large network that has a Linux machine with Samba, and uses that to authenticate domain logins & shares on the network.
However some Windows machines seems to want to authenticate to a Mac OS X computer instead of the Linux Samba machine. When the Windows machine trys to contact the Mac, it drops the packet and creates a error (on the windows machines) either on login or when accessing a share.
One suggestion that I have heard is that Mac OS X is set to a higher priory than the Linux samba computer. I have looked at some the files in the /etc directory but nothing about priory or anything like that.
I have solved the problem temporarily by turning off windows file sharing, and enabling stealth mode. But I want to know solve this problem so if someone who has a Mac OS X machine can work without worrying about accidentally turning Windows Sharing on.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

It /sounds/ like Samba is attempting to become a local or domain master browser. This can be prevented by adjusting the option "os level" under [global] to something very low, e.g.:
os level = 1
Typically Samba starts out with an OS level of 20, which should still cause it to lose all browser elections.
os level = may not be in /etc/smb.conf, but you can add it. Restart Samba and it should take effect.

10gR2 install and computer domain name

Hello,
In the 10gR2 install doc, there is a mention of "domain name" when creating an entry in the host file, thus:
Add a line to the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file with the following format, after the localhost line:
IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
where:
IP_address is the non-routable IP address you entered in step 16.
hostname is the name of the computer.
domainname is the name of the domain.
For example:
10.10.10.10 mycomputer.mydomain.com mycomputer
What is the domain name of my PC? It is a Windows XP machine, not hooked to a network, but accesses the Internet on an ADSL connection.
Thanks for your help!
gk

Actually. It doesn't matter.
You can use anything you like as hostname.domainname, even if you are connected or not connected to a LAN. If you are in a windows domain, you won't have chose, you have to use whatever they tell you to use.
If is you home PC, what you can do is to chose a pretty good name like woody.toystory.com and set the following:
edit hosts file as:
10.10.10.1 woody.toystory.com woody
And then rightclick on "My Computer" - Propierties - Computer Name TAB - Change Button ->
In the computer name write "woody"
The press button MORE and in the 'Primary DNS.....' write toystory.com. Ok and restart the PC
Then you can install the database

Ssl_accetp failed when java visual machine tries to load jar file

my web server uses openssl to implement https protocol .
my webpage contains a jar file.( "archive=droptext.jar")
JVM failed to load this jar from web server (using https protocol).
because Server failed to make a ssl connection after a ssl_accept failed error .(the function "SSL_accept (ssl)" failed)
if I use class file instead of jar file. JVM can successfully make a connection with server and load the class file.
I have no choice but to use jar file because the applet contains more than one class file.

Try putting the domain names in the Windows hosts files with their numeric addresses. That should bypass any DNS lookup. If you have central maintenance you can update all the hosts files when IP address change.
We have considered this option, but then we have the same problem described on c). IP maintentance. IPs change often and we cannot control it.
Malcolmmc, paul.miner, jschell,
I think the problem is Netbios resolution, rather than DNS one. The sites that figure on java.policy file, are not available in terms of Netbios (they are not LAN clients), so they are only visibles on DNS resolution. But Java still tries to resolve them with Netbios first, so I think there's a timeout on this resolution (not the DNS one) . This timeout causes the problem.
But, anyway .... Why is Java trying to resolve those names ??? In fact, Java will only have to match the site you are visiting with the site specified on java.policy (just a String comparison). Why does Java need to resolve (netbios & dns) the names on java.policy? I cannot figure out why.
Thank you all.

Detecting user and domain name

I am developing an application that will have an autologin option based on OS current logged user.
How do I determine what the domain name is in Windows?
Thanks

This link has the native windows code to retreive domain name:

Correct domain name on Light weight APS

just converted our first site to LWAP,when I do a show CDP neighbors on a switch the domain name for the APs is
xxxxx.cisco.com I can't find where I configure the domain name in the controller, by the way we are running static addresses on the APs I see if we used DHCP there is a domain name entry
so where do I enter the domain name when using static addresses for APs

I have the same question. Wonder if anyone can explain to me why Cisco does not have an option somewhere (on the AP or controller) to change the domain name. Don't want to use DHCP. So I am stuck with cisco.com??

Windows machines can't join domain after 10.5.4 upgrade

Howdy folks,
I have a ticket open with Apple on this but am posting here in hopes that someone might have an idea for me.
I upgraded our Mac OS X Server 10.5.3 to 10.5.4 on Sunday, and this morning several users reported that their PCs running Windows XP SP2 were unable to login to the Windows domain hosted on this machine. It's the primary domain controller for the Windows users.
One thing to note is that I had to reinstall the server completely because the 10.5.4 patcher crashed, creating all kinds of mayhem. I did a fresh install of OS X Server 10.5 and immediately applied the 10.5.4 combo updater to it. I had to restore the Open Directory from an archival copy, and the SMB was created fresh. Not sure why but the SMB services weren't preserved by the Server settings export command in Server Admin.
I thought unbinding the PC from the Windows domain and then rebinding it with a new name would help, but I've been completely unable to add older computers to the domain, even after removing the old computer records first.
I've got a reproducible failure mode for this problem on a Windows XP virtual machine running on VMware Fusion on my Mac. Here's the method I've been using to create the failure:
1. Change Windows XP System name to something new that doesn't already have a computer record on the Mac OS X Server and reboot.
2. After the reboot, run "NewSID" program on Windows to globally change my Windows machine's SID to a new, random value, and reboot again.
3. Attempt to use the Network ID wizard in the Windows Control Panel to re-add the machine to the domain under a new name so there's no conflict with any old computer records floating around in Open Directory. After it prompts me to enter the username, password and domain name for a user who's authorized to add machines to the domain, I get a dialog box that displays this error:
"Your computer could not be joined to the domain because the following error has occurred:
An internal error occurred."
Not too informative.
Here are the error messages I see in /var/log/samba/log.smbd (searching for the new computer name in the search field):
netbios connect: name1=BIGMAC name2=JEFFVM6
netbios connect: local=bigmac remote=jeffvm6, name type = 0
opendirectorysamsearchname gave -14136 [eDSRecordNotFound]: no dsRecTypeStandard:Computers record for account 'JEFFVM6$'
odssam_getgrnam gave -14136 [eDSRecordNotFound]: no dsRecTypeStandard:Groups record for 'JEFFVM6$'!
opendirectorysamsearchname gave -14136 [eDSRecordNotFound]: no dsRecTypeStandard:Computers record for account 'JEFFVM6$'
kDSStdAuthNewUser was successful for account "jeffvm6$"
At that point it's impossible to join the computer to the domain no matter what. The most puzzling thing is that SOME of our users were able to login without any problems whatever. The ones that were either physically off or somewhere else when the 10.5.4 upgrade was applied are the only PCs that seem to be having problems.
Any help at all is appreciated. I suspect this is some kind of a SID conflict because the SMB server had to be recreated from scratch, but have no idea how to fix the client, the server, or both to make the computer account creation process work.

The problem is fixed.
The issue boils down to an argument between the Open Directory server on bigmac (the OS X Server machine) and the SMB server on bigmac. The crucial information I needed to solve this problem was located here: http://www.radiotope.com/node/61
The Open Directory database had to be restored from a backup following this weekend's problematic upgrade, and it had a different value for the SID for the Windows domain than the one used by the SMB server software itself. Even stranger was that the Open Directory database actually had the wrong domain name! The It was listed as "BIGMAC" in Open Directory, even though it was set to the correct Windows domain name in the SMB server.
The solution was to demote the SMB server from a Primary Domain Controller to a Standalone Machine, and then repromote it. Although I changed no values in the settings, and did not modify the plist containing the SID in the Open Directory via the Inspector in Workgroup Admin, after the SMB PDC was repromoted, the SIDs and the domain names in Open Directory and the SMB config agreed with each othe. Now new machines can join the domain and users can login just as they did before. No client-side modifications are necessary.
Hope this is helpful to someone else. It was quite the hair-pulling experience for a while there.
