Dynamic DNS (via DHCP) out of the box?

Greetings!
I was just wondering... Does OS X support Dynamic DNS updates out of the box?
I can't seem to find any confirmation if 10.5 uses bootpd (which I think it does), and if bootpd supports dynamic DNS updates with the named service built into Leopard Server. There don't seem to be any options in Server Admin to enable this... So I'm a little hazy as how to enable dynamic DNS without compiling my own version of ISC-DHCP.
Just for clarification here; what I'm looking for is the ability to update a DNS zone with a PTR/A record(s) of machines that send a hostname as a part of retrieving a IP address from a DDNS-enabled DHCP server. Ie, "mybox" requests IP from DHCP server, DHCP server updates "mydomain.tld" with a record for "mybox", so that "mybox.mydomain.tld" is resolvable afterwards by the machines on this subnet.
Cheers,
-SC

This is a strange topic because implementing Dynamic DNS on Mac OS X Server looks like it should be child's play... so why hasn't Apple done it? Could it simply be that Apple sees no need for it at this time? Mac OS X clients don't need it to sit happy with a Mac OS X Server. Neither do Windows clients using a Mac OS X Server PDC.
Apple has implemented Dynamic DNS client support into the Active Directory Plug-in in Leopard. In this environment, of course, the client's DNS server is most likely to be an Active Directory-integrated DNS server which happily support DDNS. Unfortunately this Dynamic DNS facility is not immediately available to those not using the Active Directory plug-in.

Out of the box Media Web Part in VideoPlayerPage.aspx is not video loading dynamically after changing Media Setting

Hi,
We are on SharePoint 2013 and we are using the default SharePoint 2013 Asset Library to upload videos. We are using purely out of the box sharepoint 2013 with no customization at all.
When we click on any videos, It will lead us to the videoPlayerPage.aspx and plays the video that we click on which is what we wanted. But we do not want the player to play videos on load thus we did the following action
Edit Page
Click on the Media Web Part checkbox and the Media Tab in the Ribbon appears
Uncheck "Start Media Automatically"
Stop Editing
After doing this, no matter whatever video was click, it will only load the video which we perform the action on.
How can we undo this change or revert back as we need the videoplayerpage.aspx to load video based on what we click in Asset Library?
Thank you.
Best Regards
Alex Lee

I just did this myself and it did the same to me when editing it via the page editing.
If you open in SharePoint Designer, you can browse to the page (/Forms/Video/VideoPlayerPage.aspx) and change the property in the HTML. This will keep the web part properties from getting overwritten in the DB. You will then be able to open each
video without it playing automatically.
NOTE: You need to delete the asset library, then add it back in order to apply this.

Help Please - on a VC that works out of the box with MAC before I sellup

I have to declare that I’m somewhat frustrated at the moment and I could do with some good advise please bare with me while I explain.
I have recently converted from all types of PC systems and MS OS to Apple. The conversion was based on a few drivers.
1, My wife finally has decided to “learn” how to do her own web work instead of asking me to look up this or that for her. So as she was starting from scratch I thought MAC.
2, At the same time I had a play with Vista at work and disliked it. I was using XP & W2K at the time.
3, I wanted to update my home hardware, which was 3 years old.
4, The accountant said I hadn’t spent enough on IT last year.
5, New project work in the planning that required video/audio work to upload onto the web and everyone said MAC was the best.
So having looked around and done what I thought was enough research I started investing. To date I’ve invested £4500 plus.
Started by buying
iMAC 24” 2.8 Gz Intel with 4GB ram (for the home office)
MacBook Pro 2.4 with 4GB ram (for out and about working)
iPHONE 16GB (which is great)
VMware Fusion was installed for those things that I couldn’t live without until I found a suitable replacement like MS Money, Paint Shop Pro, MS Office etc. Installed XP.
Tried Open Office found it to clunky and hard work working off files for MS Office that others sent/required. Ended up buying Office 2008 only to find VB macros don’t work in Excel and all my company spreadsheets still need PC MS Excel to run so back into XP via Fusion.
Then to MAIL which is great on the iPHONE as I can easily monitor my 5 email accounts, what a result. But now I come to attach JPG files as I would in outlook and they open into the content of text in the mail and will not stay closed but disrupt the message. Wholly unacceptable to my way of working with no cure.
Scanning next, so I down loaded GIMP to replace PSP which I find useless so back to PSP I go again via XP & Fusion.
Next and finally the VC project, Now please bare in mind that all I want to do is shoot film, upload it to edit it and then mount it on the web page. I have no desire to become any form of expert in the field just get the job done.
So reviewed iMovie to understand the spec. Realise it has limitation and reviewed FCE which seems to plug the gaps and boarders on being more professional.
At this point I must say I’m not totally new to this subject as I have used Studio8 and a JVC GR-DVL166EK video cam a couple of years ago and got on ok without any issues simple plug and play with great results.
Having reviewed the standards that the software is reported to work too without any publicly declared exclusions or exceptions by Apple I went shopping for the VC. (I didn’t know of the forum at the time and to the best of my knowledge Apple don’t advise of its existence in any product information on anything I have bought.)
I buy a Panasonic HDC-HS9 for £700 which doesn’t flaming work despite the fact that it should based on all the standards quoted by both manufactures and there are no disclaimers from either party that it won’t work.
I have reviewed the compatibility list on the support page (now I know its there) and find that the Panasonic HDC-SD5 does work. I reviewed the comprehensive detailed model spec on the Panasonic web site and there is no differences between the to models at all accept the HDD.
So why don’t it work?
*At the end of the day can anyone please recommend a VC that will produce high quality results without the need of a 3rd party software to connect and upload files convert and muck about instead of getting on with the job.*
And if all the publicised specs don’t allow you to conclude compatibility how can you protect your investment? Where do we legally stand and where is the accountability to the consumer.
<edited by host>
I am that fed up with the last 3 months of mucking about Bill Gat*es may just get me back.
Thanking anyone in anticipation for some meaning advise and help.
Regards
Alan

Hi, and thanks for you interest. The problems is that whether I'm using iMovie or FCE I get to a stage where the thumbnail image is present but if you try to play, import or any other action in either app it closes down and a message comes up " The Application Final Cut Express/iMovie quit unexpectedly - Mac OS X and other application are not affected" then asks if I wish to relaunch. I then hit the report to Apple button and afterwards relaunch. I was recommended to use Voltaic which I have tried, it worked but is to much mucking about for something that should work out of the box.
This problem happens on both the iMAC and the MacBook so quite sure it's not a OS software issue. All software update are up to date also.
Any ideas?

6 hr battery life on a Droid Eris out of the box

Hello eveyone.
I need help I just changed my blackberry storm for the Droid Eris.
Right out of the box and charged the battery lasts 8 hrs tops then it's decresed to 6 hrs.
THhis drop was due to my twitter and facebook usage which is very low and some emails that come in now. I cant surf the net due to the battery drop.
My old storm would go on for 2 days 1 full day with heavy usage. This is a new phone...what gives?
Thx.

It isn't the phones fault. It is due to an under amped battery. It is a strong phone that needs more juice. I would be hard pressed to believe the motorola droid or any other android phone has a huge difference in battery time. If there is a huge difference you don't use the phone as much as some of us do then. I purchased the 1750 battery from seido. Would have got the next one up the 3500 if it had been the price it is now. I recommend buying two and an external charger. I am getting ready to buy another 1750 and charger. This will increase the life of the battery for two reason primary reasons. Proper time for charging and the fact it isn't in use makes the charging cycle much better and effecient. I work in a hospital and get my phone searching quite often, from one netowork type to the next. I can get a solid 12 hours with 20% left at thend of the night when I get home. I have FB chat up litterally all the time bloo, I don't twitter that much but I get updates. I get mail pushed via gmail now. I do use wi-fi off and on as well. Since I'm in doors I don't actually leave the gps on, waste of power in general. Any of the newest smartphones have an underpowered battery. BB doesn't use use the web in the same fashion as android does and it isn't multitasking which is one of the big killers ont he phone. Use a task killer, select the improtant apps to ignor and make sure it cancels stocks and mp3 store, waste of cpu there. You can maximize the power you get with the battery you have, but the 3500, will add a small bit of thickness, but who really wants a hardworking model for a phone. She (the phone) just doesn't feel the same. Sorry to ramble so much, but it gets me when people say it is the phones fault or HTC is the cause. I disabled sense UI for a week and used the open UI that android has. I lost an hour and a half on the average daily, so I have to say from doing that and then turning it back on and getting the missed time back sense UI isn't the cause. I didn't notice any extra pps running when I used the open UI so I have no idea why it acted that way. It coudl have been caused by background jobs that the Sense UI uses but wasn't since it wasn't enabled and the services still ran, now that I mention that I need to check that out. It is the wrong battery fo the job, plain and simple. Replace your moto droid batteries and you will see a huge difference too. You can charge the new batteries for less time(4 hours or less pending on charger) and they will say full, but you get bad results when you short change your batteries charge time. To get the most out of my batteries, I charge them for a full 8 hours, the reason I am getting another battery and ext charger with dock.(http://store.androidcentral.com/mobi-products-cradle-w-spare-battery-slot/5A100A6693.htm) and the battery I am getting (http://store.androidcentral.com/seidio-innocell-1750mah-extended-battery/8A37A6399.htm) or the bigger battery (http://store.androidcentral.com/seidio-innocell-3500mah-extended-battery/8A37A6374.htm) You can find better prices but these are for reference. A note on airplane mode: It disable all radios in the phone. You will not receive calls and txt/mms messages. Basically it turns your phone into a PDA. You can enable the wi-fi for access. Since I replaced my battery I don't do it that often but sometimes I find it neccesary to use airplane mode for some of the remote desktop use I do on my phone.

Logging in ifs and renderering capabilities out of the box

Hello there
Just wondering if anybody could clarify/confirm a few things for me...
I'm currently trying to use 9ifs as a 'conversion' engine. I have an XML file within a 9ifs repository that I wish to transform using an xslt when I retrieve it.
Does 9ifs contain out of the box functionality to perform this? If so, how do I use it or do I need to write a custom renderer to perform the tasks that I have specified?
I have had a play with the SimpleXmlRenderer however have not been able to find any solid examples of how to use it nor do I know whether it is possible to use it to specify the xslt that will perform the transformation.
I have also heard that 9ifs has an inbuilt 'logging' capability - ie it can keep a record of files that have gone in to 9ifs or gone out. Is this also true and how would I use it?
Finally, I have heard that one of the capabilities of ifs is that it provides 'transactional' support in either putting files into the repository or taking files out - ie a file is either there or it is not, there is no in between, corrupt file state. Can anybody shed any light on this as to whether it is true or not?
Jason

The CMSDK does not include any out-of-the-box XML transformation capabilities, but it is very easy to code XML/XSLT transformations using Java, and I believe Internet Explorer has built-in support for it, so one could consider that built-in functionality. You could write your own servlet to perform any kind of transformation you wish on any file in the CMSDK, and serve up the resulting file via HTTP, for example.
The CMSDK is extensible and configurable in a way that could allow you to keep track of files uploaded and downloaded into the instance. You can write custom code and plug it into various extensibility points which allow you to modify default behavior or extend it to include custom operations. See the developer's guide and the javadoc for more details.
The CMSDK is a transactional object store -- it is true that files can be uploaded and modified within a transaction, and completely rolled back in case of failures.

HP 4510 Prints Skew/Slant out of the box on 2 different printers

I have purchased and returned (2) 4510tn laser printers that prints skewed/slanted (very minor) right out of the box. Have worked with HP support to find a solution but they don't even acknowledgement that the problems exist. I believe this is a defect across the entire line since the same thing happened with two brand new printers. Has anyone out there experience the same problem?

Hi Chris,
This sounds interesting.
My first thoughts is that you have some sort of printer class configured, although this works as a load balancer for print jobs, it is not supposed to split a single job amongst the printers in the pool. Anyway, to check if this is set, you can open the Printer Setup Utility and look at the printer list. In the King column, you will see Printer Pool.
Another thought is network addressing. If you are using TCP/IP to connect to these printers, any chance there could be an IP address duplication?
Also, are the Mac's connected directly via IP to these printers or are they connecting via a share from a print server?

Decoding the "Out of the box Demonstration"

Hi folks,
I am doing the out of the box demonstrations on SAP xApps for Personal Productivity_Request for Quotation Approval.
The demo works fine as written in the SAP documents and the recorded demonstrations.
Here I want to know how the scenario has been orchestrated.
I want to look at the VIsual composer and the WebDynpro.
Would anyone plese let me know
1. where the webDynpros and the VCs of this scenario are saved? and
2. how I can look at their details? I mean how they have been constructed?
for Visual Composer, I looked at the Public Model of Visual composer screen.
there I could find the VCs only for the procurement scenario and xApp Analytics.
For WebDynpro, I looked at the contents management
->WebDynpro link but couldnot get to the details.
I am urgently looking forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks

Hi Sudeep,
For the VC model of Quotation Approval Scenario you can get it by navigating in the portal content directory under:
Visual Composer -> Models -> com.sap.pcomp.1L8W.QuotationApproval -> com.sap.pcomp.model->QuotationApproval
Right click on it and then "Open in Storyboard". The VC model for the composite application will open in the VC storyboard. You can check there how it has been modeled.(note the code 1L8W maybe different in your portal).
For the webdynpro we have not packaged the code. The developer in my team who has developed it is currently on vacation this week and we will be able to provide to you via mail (zip file or so), when he is back next week.
I hope this is fine with you.
Regards

Script to hide out of the box form field in SharePoint 2013

Can someone post a script to hide the fields on the out of the box New form of a particular list ?

You can still edit form pages within SPO. Embedding that script should work. Have you tested it?
As an alternative, you can set some of the column properties (such as
ShowInEditForm) to No via the SPO Manager but this is a paid product - http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/store/sharepoint-manager-2013-online-WA104025157.aspx?queryid=6e5f213e%2D1ae8%2D4d5c%2D85f0%2D83712736e194&css=sharepoint%20manager&CTT=1

X4100 LOM problems out of the box

Straight out of the box I am having trouble connecting to lom. Using a serial cable I can connect and see the lom service start after power is connected, when the login line appears i loose control of the session. Any ideas? I don't know what the IP address is set to so I can't setup via browser.

Well, I took my 16GB iPhone 3g (white) back to the Apple Store today and the Genius looked it over -- said that's the first keyboard problem he's seen come in and mentioned that it was strange the "dead zone" on the touch screen was vertical since, according to him, most "dead zones" tend to be horizontal areas. He said the touch screen matrix is laid out in three horizontal bands on the screens.
Bottom line: he gave me a new working iPhone 3g.
He did mention that all returned iPhone 3g's are being sent directly back to the iPhone 3g engineering team for full "autopsies", not just sent back to factory for refurb. He said they want to fully diagnose and understand what defects are out there so as to solve the root cause moving forward.

K430-31092SU new out of the box has no audio.

K430-31092SU new out of the box has no audio. The real ports for audio (green port on back) headphones and microphone (black and pink ports front or back) when a device is plugged in it does not pop up on the task bar. Under the Manage Audio Devices > Sounds, the level meter indicates sound is playing but nothing comes through the speakers or headphones. The video graphics card is connected to a ViewSonic 1080P LED monitor with built in speakers via the HDMI cable. Sound comes through the monitor speakers when selected but cannot get any sound from the green audio port internal to the motherboard. Tried unplugging the HDMI cable connected the VGA, same results, no sound from the speakers.
Tech support remotes in and does everything I have already done with settings and drivers so they determine that the motherboard has a hardware failure and the machine will have to be returned. The tech was very easy to communicate with and I was given a case number to talk to the After Purchase Department and they say it will take 4-5 business days for them to contact me to start the process of returning the PC. WHAT? Start the process!
Every third day I have called Lenovo and every time they say it will be 4-5 days for someone to contact me. The last time I called they told me someone would call that day. Needless to say I have not heard from anyone.
Will reply later as to when I get instructions on returning the defective K430 and get a replacement. The Lenovo experience so far has been extremely disappointing.

I always wanted a lenovo and got one couple years ago and was very disappointed at their battery. For a netbook they wanted 178 bucks - still do. They are looking heavily to their bottom line in my mind. I bought a desktop shortly after and had pains plus but it wasn't all their fault. I just bought an all in one and it will definitely be the last unless I seem them turn around soon. This board is full of people with problems and no solutions.
Mine, the touch screen is incompatible with windows 8 yet lenovo was pushing upgrading to windows 8. Not wise in my mind but that is the way they are functioning right now. I called about another problem and was told three times someone would call within the day - never happened.
I must say the older two are great machines after I got them running smoothly though little to no help from lenovo.

WRVS4400N issue out of the box. Can't connect to the unit for setup.

As mentioned, I cannot get a dhcp address from this unit to my notebook for configuration. I have tried manually assigning an ip address in the 192.168.1.1 network and it doesn't work wither. I tried another machine and still the same problem. I also reset the unit twice.
So far I can't do anything with this unit right out of the box.
Anyone have a fix?
Thanks

Broke out of the box and itune update not working

Just got apple tv delivered today but it wasn't working out of the box... flashing white light..
So i connected it to itunes via micro usb and itunes won't restore it looks like the .dmg is missing..
This is really bad, surely apple have noticed the software update is missing???
Did this update work for anyone?

It's impossible to know how much work there is putting it back, it sounds simple but it might not be, it's been down a few days now, I suppose it depends on how much inconvenience it is to return it for another.

please help me out here...

Auto-focus requires adequate lighting and a subject with adequate contrast. It may not focus in a very dark room, for example... or a night scene. It also needs contrast -- for exmaple if you point the camera up into a blue, cloudless sky it wont be able to focus on that either because there's nothing of contrast (the sky looks the same overall "blue" whether in focus or out of focus so moving the focus makes no difference and this confuses the camera.) If, however, you have good lighting (e.g. suppose you're outside on a bright sunny day) then the camera should focus on any normal subject then it should have no difficulty focusing (as long as it isn't a completely plain, featureless subject that offers no contrast.) The camera actually has TWO different focus systems. If you look through the veiwfinder then the camera uses it's "phase detect" auto-focus system (this is the fastest focus system.) If you put the camera into "live view" mode so that you use the rear LCD to compose your subject then the camera uses it's "contrast detect" auto-focus system. If neither system works with the lens in auto-focus mode then the most likely cause is a problem with the lens (either the camera is unable to communicate with the lens or the auto-focus motor isn't working, etc.) It's far more often that this is a lens problem and not a camera problem. If you happen to have another lens, try switching lenses to see if that makes a difference. Are the camera and lens both new?

IPod Shuffle (2nd Gen) not lighting up out of the box even afr 2hrs of chrg

Can somebody tell me what is going on here? This is the second shuffle that (I brought back the first one to circuit city) I can't get to work out of the box. That is, after charging for 2 hrs (I've tried to charge via my outlet as well) I can't get any lights to show up.
What gives?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

So far, you hadn't really described what you were >doing...
is the "wall charger" an Apple iPod USB Power >Adapter? >Does the Shuffle's LED show continuous orange >while in >the dock?
Plugging in the dock to my outlet per the apple ipod usb power adapter. Looked at the light immediately and no orange or any lights what so ever. So, I figured it needed to be charged, Apple specs say 2 hrs for 80% charge, 4 hours for full. I left the thing on there all night long when I went to bed. Got up. Checked the shuffle and no lights.
Question: is the (oranage) light supposed to come on immediatly after it's plugged in?
The fact that this is your 2nd one is interesting.
Apple specs claim 4 hours to fully charge the Shuffle but >that's optimistic... many here have experienced much >longer charging time
This is pretty assembly IMHO as this si pretty frustrating regarless if it's operator error or a another defective unit.
Any more information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for your response.

Mac Pro slow to boot up (out of the box)

My company bought 4 new Mac Pro units at the end of 2014. Of the three mine was the first to get powered up. It takes roughly 5 minutes to boot. In that time there is nothing on the screens. The other 3 boot up in 30-45 seconds. This has happened since the first boot with only the thunderbolt display hooked up. I've tested it with other displays with the same results. All 4 units are identical.
What is going on here?
Specs for each system...
Processor: 3.5GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5
Memory: 32 GB RAM (using slot 1 & 2)
Graphics: AMD FirePro D500
OSX: 10.9.5
Boot drive: Apple SSD 210GB (120GB Available)
Thunderbolt Display
27" LG connected via HDMI-to-thunderbolt
27" LG connected via HDMI port on Mac Pro
Thanks in advance!

You waited roughly 3 months to boot this machine for the very first time or for 3 months it's been booting this way? Your comments suggest you just unpacked this baby and powered it up and it's slow. If it's been running for 3 months, it's not out of the box.
This machine is still under warranty... why not have Apple Care take a look at it? If as you say the setup between all 4 is identical but only this one is slow to boot, it's likely going to be a hardware issue, not a software one.
Questions to ask yourself:
1. Is the hard drive nearly full?
2. Have you checked Disk Permissions and Verified the Disk?
3. If you have a dual boot configuration, is the OS X partition the default startup partition?
4. Have you reset the NVRAM/SMC yet?
