Duplicate Users being Created - AD / OD Setup - Please Help

I am a little confused.
Our machines use AD authorisation, and in the past have always had force local home directories enabled. This means that we have dozens of user folders on each
machine. Although as they are logging in through the network, there are no user accounts in system preferences.
We have now enabled portable home directories, and excluded a bunch of file
types and folders. Which is working fine.
However I have noticed that some users do not have access to there previous
files and that there are now two User folders with nearly identical
usernames but one ends with a $.
So in the users folders there will be “dan” and “dan$” with “dan” containing
there old files. I would like them to have access to all there files from before
we switched on pHD's.
I'm sure this must be a common enough issue. Anyone else had this occur ?
Cheers
Dan

  • Lightroom 4.3 Duplicate folders being created on import

    Hi, is anyone else gaving issues with duplicate folders being created with Lightroom 4.3 on import?
    When I import photos, they go to a folder with a name "XXX" for example.
    The folder is in a hierarchy of "2013, March, XXX".
    Lightroom creates a folder  here and above 2013! It is making a mess of my library.
    Also, when I import using Photo Mechanic (great software that just works!) and then do a "synchronize folder" in Lightroom, only 1 photo is transferred.
    Is there a fix for these bugs?

    It looks to me as though you've fallen victim to the "capitalisation" issue....in your Folders Panel your year folders names have the word "LIBRARY" in capitals, yet in the screenshot of the import dialog you are importing to "LR_Library_2013". I guess at some point you changed the capitalisation, and although the OS doesn't distinguish between the two formats, Lightroom unfortunately does.....so although all the images/sub-folders are within the one actual year folder, Lightroom sees them as two different parent folders.
    So which one is the correct format as shown in Win Explorer? I'm guessing the lower-case version? If so, the quickest way to fix this is as follows:
    1. Backup your catalog.
    2. Create a root level folder on the C drive, call it whatever you want, say "Capitals Fix".
    3. Right-click on the "LR_LIBRARY_2013" year folder in the Lightroom Folders Panel and select "Update Folder Location". In the file browser that then opens, browse to and select the "Capitals Fix" folder on the C drive.
    4. Don't be alarmed as the 2013 folder will disappear from the Folders Panel, "Capitals Fix" will appear but all the sub-folders that were listed under 2013 will now have "?" marks.
    5. Now right-click on "Capitals Fix" in the Folders Panel, and again choose "Update Folder Location". This time browse to and select the correct "LR_Library_2013" folder on the A drive. You may get a "Merge" dialog box, select "Merge" and everything should resolve itself.
    6. Repeat if needed for the 2011 and 2012 year folders, though as you're likely not importing into there any longer you may not encounter the problem.

  • Duplicate folders being created within folders

    I am noticing that since we started using Contribute on our
    website that duplicate folders are being created within the folder.
    For example - I have a folder called Ministries. Inside Ministries
    are three subfolders - Peru, Brazil & Mexico. I'll go in to
    upload a page to the Mexico subfolder and find that the entire
    Ministries folder has been duplicated inside the Ministries folder.
    So instead of looking like this:
    Ministries -
    Peru
    Brazil
    Mexico
    It looks like this:
    Ministries -
    Peru
    Brazil
    Mexico
    Ministries
    Peru
    Brazil
    Mexico
    Has anyone else encountered this? I haven't been able to find
    any coding issues that would account for this. I admit that I
    probably just don't know enough to know where to look.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I am unable to reproduce this issue when using Contribute.
    Could you please check if that system is infected by any
    virus?
    Please look the following site:

  • How to deal with .csproj.user being created/modified by Visual Studio before the project is run?

    So, what is the problem?
    The problem is that Visual Studio considers .csproj.user a dependency of the project being run.
    Let us assume the following:
     - We have a freshly built solution containing a web application project `X` as the Start Up project. 
     - There are Silverlight applications served by the X web application.
     - There is no `X.csproj.user` file initially.
    Now consider the following flow of events:
     1. Open the solution in the Visual Studio
     2. Build.
     3. Run.
     4. A dialog is open to ask whether Silverlight debugging is to be enabled. Enable it.
     5. Stop the debugging session.
     6. Run again.
     7. Stop the debugging session.
     8. Run again.
    Assuming nothing is built at step 2 (because the solution is totally up to date), will there anything be built at steps 3 and 6?
    The answer is affirmative and here is why:
     - The X.csproj.user file is actually created by Visual Studio when the project is requested to run. What happens next is that the
    X.csproj.user file is considered a dependency of the project
    X by the Visual Studio. Being created just now the file is newer than the project binaries and so Visual Studio builds the project
    X. This explains why the project is built at step 3.
     - When we agree to enable Silverlight debugging Visual Studio records this agreement in the
    X.csproj.user file. So the file is modified again, after the project has started running. Restarting the debugging session is going to build the project
    X yet again, after all X.csproj.user is again newer than the binaries built a second ago. This explains why the project is built at step 6.
    Fortunately, nothing is built at step 8.
    Call me petty, but I want to avoid the builds at steps 3 and 6. The problem is that I am not allowed to check in the X.csproj.user file, because that is likely to create a mess with people accidentally checking in their private changes.
    On the other hand, I am unable to move its default content (along with the agreement to enable Silverlight debugging) into the project file
    X.csproj. Well, I can, but it is just being ignored.
    So, here is my question - is it possible to separate the content stored in a
    .csproj.user into two groups:
     - Permanent. These are the things I would love to have in the .csproj file. It will be checked in.
     - Temporary/Private. These are the things private to individual developers. Never checked in.
    Visual Studio already allows this separation for certain properties - see the
    Apply server settings to all users (store in project file) checkbox in the Web properties tab of a Web application project - http://olalalittlen.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/vs-tips-managing-server-settings-in-web-projects-for-multi-developer-scenarios/.
    However, it is insufficient.
    Any other ideas on how to prevent the aforementioned redundant builds are welcome too.

    Hi Mark,
    I think your issue is more about project itself. the saved information in the .csproj.user settings is about the project's information.
    So I suggest you post your issue to the related project forum.

  • Reset server password/setup PLEASE HELP!!

    Hi, thank for looking at this and trying to help.
    I am the proud owner of a mac mini lion server. The problem is in my playing around with getting a new product (like we all do) I came across the server I have done some research and I really like the idea of it and want to put it into good use. (the reason I got the server one was because of the better hard drive, before you ask why did I get it if I didn't know what the server bit is)
    The only problem is, whilst playing around I set up the server. I now go back into the server app and it says type in admin name and password which is already on there in the key chain. I press connect and it fail. ( whic is weird as I would of had to of typed it in for it to be in the key chain)
    I have tried different user names as I only use one password. And still it shakes at me saying it's wrong.
    The question is how can I reset the Account? Without losing all my info.
    PLEASE HELP I want to use this great feature!!

    Same problem as the others. I have a 2 week old Mac Mini and arrived at this point after I'd followed the Hoffman Labs (http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436) DNS setup and not being able to get past the "Available Servers (0)" problem rported elsewhere and then a subsequent new system restore. I also can't get past the:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    Current HostName    = server.local
    The DNS hostname is not available, please repair DNS and re-run this tool.
    I feel I'm at the point of an erase and clean install.

    I just created an Apple Id for my wife and a user account for her.  We are on the same computer (iMac). I cant for the love of God get my itunes library to show on her user account on computer.  My library shows up under shared library when i select it it just keeps loading and nothing.  When i try the hold down option while opening itunes on her user account and then choose library my library doesnt show up as option.  What in the world am i doing wrong, why is Apple making this so difficult. We are not going to buy separte computers just to share itunes content. Please help.

    You can sync devices with the same iCloud ID, not seperate ones.
    If she has a different login on your Mac, make sure she has her own ID defined in System Prefs > iCloud

    If all what you are interested is Scott schema than no need to use the datapump or CTAS. Run demobld.sql in your schema and it would have all the objects of Scott.

  • FLEX and CF Debugger setup - PLEASE HELP

    I can't get the line debugger for CF in eclipse to work for
    the life of me. I've been trying this for over 8 hours now. I
    follow the directions on all the tutorials out there on the web and
    still no luck. All my CF admin settings are correct. I think it has
    to do w/ the debug mappings but not sure. I have a remote CF server
    and am running Flex Builder 3 off of my local laptop (so wouldn't
    that mean that the server and Eclipse are not on the same machine?)
    My web root is a mapped network drive to the remote CF machine
    (z:\websites). I can connect to the CF RDS fine... I can use the
    wizards fine... I can set the breakpoints on the CFC page fine...
    but the debugger just will not show me any variables. Please help
    me to understand what I am doing wrong.

    For anyone having difficulty setting up the debugger please
    follow these steps (btw all the tutorials out there are awful and
    leave out important steps so I thought I'd document this to help
    others out). Being a software application developer and not a
    network admin these remote paths can be rather difficult to
    understand.
    1. uninstall any Flash player or plugins you have
    2. run and install the Flash player and debugger that comes
    with Flex Builder (its located in the Flex installation folder,
    mine was under C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\Player\win).
    You'll see 3 files, but only need to install Flash Player Active X
    and Plugin
    3. Ensure you'r debugger and tester are working (CF line
    debugging is enabled). In Windows Preferences under Adobe -->
    RDS click the 2 test buttons.
    4. Install CFEclipse (to be able to get code hints and have
    Eclipse color code cfm and cfc's like DreamWeaver does)
    5. Make sure you have 2 breakpoints in the section you want
    the debugger to stop. I was using 1 and on an empty space and that
    wasn't stopping on the breakpoints. Also make sure the breakpoints
    are on a coldfusion command line.
    6. If you are using localhost don't add anything to the
    mappings section other than
    http://localhost:(your port
    number, if you run CF admin you will see the port number in your
    URL). If you have a CF server remotely though this is the TOUGH
    part. It took me days to figure out my mappings. I'll just give you
    my setup and work with that to figure out you're own.
    I mapped my remote server drive to Z:\ and my WWWroot is
    z:\websites so the correct Eclipse path = z:\websites.
    The correct Coldfusion path is /websites (don't ask me why or
    how, but anything other than this was not working)
    7. Run the debugger by clicking the right arrow next to the
    debug icon, select Other and select CF(launch a new config is you
    dont have one already). When you set it up and press "Debug"...
    press F11 to run a browsing session. Navigate to the page you set
    breakpoints for and the debugger should work!
    I hope this helps and saves others the agony of playing
    around with mappings.

  • K7n2 Delta RAID Setup ----PLEASE HELP

    Can someone explain how a RAID - Striping should be setup on this MOBO?  I can not get the board to see the 2nd drive. I have duplicate Maxtor 40gb drives and it will only see one of the drives. I am using IDE3 for one of the drives and then putting the other drive on IDE1. The manual states that you can only have 1 HD on IDE3 thus the reason for setting it up this way.  I have also tried the 2 maxtor drives on IDE1 with another drive on IDE3 (dummy RAID) hoping that this config would work as well, but it did not!
    Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

    It does support RAID. I have been able to go into the Fastrack utility and setup a RAID consisting of one drive. The manual also states that all IDE slots support RAID. It has the promise 376 chip.

  • How to debug a RFC function  when the user is non-dialog type? Please help!

    hi Experts,
      I am calling a RFC FM residing in B from R/3 system A.
    R/3 A -
    Call FM residing in B----
    > R/3 B
    The user attached to the remote destination is a non-dialog type.
    I cannot change the user type of this user.
    Therefore how to debug the RFC FM in System A?
    Are there any alternatives?
    Please help
    Thanks
    Gopal

    in your RFC FM, code an endlees loop.
    something like:
    data: gv_x  type xfeld value 'X'.
    do.
      if gv_x = space.
        exit.
      endif.
    enddo.
    now you can catch the mode in TA SM50, go in it, change gv_x to space and debug what is coming further.
