Getting List of Hosts on Network via Terminal
Is there a way to scan the network and report back a list of network servers?
I specifically need Samba servers, but it would be great to find all servers, including the UPnP servers on the network.
I read up on smbclient but it seems you need to know the host name/ip beforehand when using that command.
TIA!
You could also ping your broadcast address then look at your arp table (remove the n option to lookup host names):
<pre style="border: 1px solid #ddd; padding-left: .75ex; padding-top: .25em; padding-bottom: .25em; margin-top: .5em; margin-bottom: .5em; margin-left: 1ex; max-width: 80ex; overflow: auto; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #444; background: #eee; line-height: normal">ping -c2 `ifconfig | awk '/broadcast/{print $NF; exit}'` 2>&1 >/dev/null; arp -na</pre>

Adhoc network created in windows 8.1 gets listed as an infrastructure network
Hi All,
I have created a adhoc network on a windows 8.1 (home ) tab following the below steps ,
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow
netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid=tests key=123456789
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
hosted network started but to my surprise it got listed in all the other windows 8.1 tabs (which was not supposed to be listed),
I ran netsh wlan show networks command only to see that the new adhoc network <tests> is being detected by all other tabs as Infrastructure network
Did I miss anything while creating the network ? cuz.. I was expecting it to be listed as "adhoc" network ?
Other part of the deal is when I try to connect another 8.1 tab (home edition) by following the below steps
Click Open Network and Sharing Center > Manage Wireless Networks >
Add.
Click "Manually create a network profile". (This may look silly but we really are going to create an infrastructure network now.)
Enter the network name (SSID), security type, encryption type (if any) and the key that you noted in step 1.
Uncheck both checkboxes ("Start this connection automatically" and "Connect even if the network is not broadcasting".) [Note that you cannot have the connection start automatically. If you try to have it checked, step 10 will fail. A
different way to start it automatically during system boot is described below.]
Click Next > Close. Your connection must appear in the list with the icon suggesting infrastructure (two big screens connected to a tube). Don't worry about it.
Click Start, type in "cmd" in the search box, press Enter.
In the Command Prompt, type in "netsh wlan set profileparameter name=NetworkName
ConnectionType=IBSS", exactly as shown, without quotes, except you must substitute
NetworkName with the SSID (network name) of your ad-hoc network
connection fails (if I change the connection type back to ESS , it gets successfully connected
Why is this ? I am struggling with this from yesterday..Hi,
According to your description, it seems that your all Windows 8.1 computers connect to network via normal wireless network.
Did you have wireless router for them?
Please delete this adhoc, then check if these computer could connect to network.
If no, follow below guide to create and connect to adhoc :

Connect Airport Network via Terminal
In 10.5, using the following command:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport -A'yourSSID' password
would connect you to the 'yourSSID' network with password of 'password'.
In 10.6, it seems like the -A (attach) switch has been removed from the 'airport' command.
Does anyone know how to associate a 10.6 Mac with a wireless network via the command line?networksetup -addpreferredwirelessnetworkatindex Airport $SSID 0 WEP $SSIDPWD

At least its now reversed as to what it used to be originally before. the 128gb ssd used to be on top. Is my mac booting fusion correctly? Thank you for responding as I was about to reformat.

I am new to Mac...How do I get connected to a server on my network via a hyper link IP address path? When I try to open in a URL and login as a registered user with proper login it errors out saying there was a problem with connecting to the server?
Some of the following is going to use some technical terms — this area is inherently somewhat technical.
If you don't understand some part of the following reply, please ask.
Is this your own OS X Server system on your own network, or is this some other server within some larger organization?
You're posting this in the OS X Server forum, which is a software package that allows OS X systems to provide web-based and many other services; to become servers.
If it's your OS X Server on your network, then the network and DNS configurations are suspect, or the server is somehow malfunctioning or misconfigured. This is unfortunately fairly common, as some folks do try to avoid setting up DNS services.
If it's a larger organization and somebody else is managing the server and the network, then you'll probably need to contact the IT folks for assistance; to learn the network setup and DNS requirements, and if there's a problem with the server itself.
The basic web URL "hyper link IP address path" — without using DNS — usually looks something the following, where you'll need to replace 10.20.30.40 with the IP address of your server:
http://10.20.30.40
UptimeJeff has posted a URL that specifies the AFP file system; an OS X file share. That's used if you're connecting to an Apple storage service somewhere on your network. You might alternatively need to specify smb://10.20.30.40 or such, if it's a Windows file server. (There can be additional requirements for connecting to Windows Server systems, too.)
If there's local IT staff available here, please contact them for assistance. If these are your own local systems and your own local OS X Server system, then some information on the server will be needed. (If you're on a NAT'd network, you'll also need to get DNS services configured and working on your local OS X Server system and your network — you'll not be able to skip this step and reference ISP DNS servers here — or things can and usually will get weird.) -

How to assign Static IP via Terminal in Mountain Lion OSX?
I have formatted by Macbook Pro 13 inch (2009 Oct) running on Mountain Lion OSX. I am trying to install the OSX via Ethernet at office network but I am unable to do so due to network restrictions. Macbook Pro picks the IP automatically when connected over Ethernet.
In order to install the OSX over the same network I have to configure the Macbook to static IP (public netowork). Could you please guide me how to configure Static IP via Terminal? I mean the commands to feed in Terminal. Thanks!First get a list of your network services:
networksetup -listallnetworkservices
Then use the desired service name in the following command:
networksetup -setmanual SERVICE IP SUBNET ROUTER
For example, by default the Wi-Fi connection will be called "Wi-Fi," so you can use the following to set it to a classic private IP address:
networksetup -setmanual Wi-Fi 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
To set it back to DHCP, use the following command:
networksetup -setdhcp SERVICE
To keep DHCP services but only use a manually designated IP address, then use the following command:
networksetup -setmanualwithdhcprouter SERVICE IP
You may need to preceede these commands with "sudo" (followed by a single space) to run them with administrative privileges. -

How to check folder sizes of the root directory on my VPS/Dedicated server via Terminal?
Hi,
I have following issue.
I have a VPS with Linux OS and I'd like to check size of the folders as well as remaining space on my server.
How can I do that via Terminal?
I would appreciate any input.login into your VPS server via terminal and cd into the root of your hosted space. Then use the df -h command to see the listing
for i.e.
df -h /volumes/volume_1
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on
//john@ds00/volume_1 457Gi 12Gi 445Gi 3% 0 18446744073709551615 0% /Volumes/volume_1
for you it would be something like:
df -h [email protected]/share (ip address) -
Hi
I need to know the command for getting list of softwares installed on all the remote systems in network which are existing in their respective registry like HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE of all other systemsHey
Sorry this isn't powershell but it should do the job if you want to use it. The problem with using the Win32_Product WMI Class to enumerate the installed software (especially on Windows 2000 & 2003 Servers) is that the WMI class is NOT installed by default. Here is a VBScript i wrote to read a list of hostnames from a text file named "ComputerNames.txt" from the scripts directory and attempt to remotely enumerate all subkeys within the following registry key
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
For each subkey enumerated it will attempt to read the value of the "DisplayName" key and output the results to a csv file.
(the results should be the same as what you would see when you open Add/Remove Programs)
Hope that helps
Cheers
Matt :)

Hyper-V virtual network switch disconnects host machines network connection
When creating an external virtual switch for my Hyper-V machine, my hosts connection is lost immediately when applying the setting and is restored immediately after deleting the virtual switch.
Am I doing something wrong? It seemed pretty straightforward and I've followed steps that others have outlined to create the virtual switch.When I checked, "Allow management operating systems to share this network adapter", and checked "Enable virtual LAN identification for management operating systems" another SNAFU happened. I found in network connections, Ethernet properties,
my "Internet protocol version 4 unchecked, and Hyper-V Extensible virtual switch checked, and I no longer had network access. Again I had to remove my hyper-v external switch in hyper-v manager. I guess I could try using my WIFI as the switch,
but getting hyper-v Windows Server 2012 R2 has been a real problem.
I did the following steps:
To install and configure a virtual machine, complete the following steps:
1. Start Hyper-V Manager by clicking Start, Administrative Tools, Hyper-V Manager.
2. In Hyper-V Manager, right-click the server node in the left pane, point to New, and then select Virtual Machine. This starts the New Virtual Machine Wizard. Click Next.
3. In the Name text box, enter a name for the virtual machine, such as AppServer02.
4. By default, the virtual machine data is stored on the system disk. To select a different location, select the Store The Virtual Machine In A Different Location check box, click Browse,
and then use the Select Folder dialog box to select a save location. Click Next.
5. On the Assign Memory page, specify the amount of memory to allocate to the virtual machine. In most cases, you should reserve at least the minimum amount of memory recommended for the
operating system you plan to install. Click Next. 6.
On the Configure Networking page, use the Connection list to select a network adapter to use. Each new virtual machine includes a network adapter, and you can configure the adapter to use an available virtual network for communicating with other
computers. Click Next. 7.
On the Connect Virtual Hard Disk page, use the options provided to name and create a virtual hard disk for the virtual machine. Each virtual machine requires a virtual hard disk so that you can install an operating system and required applications.
Click Next. 8. On the Installation Options page, select Install An Operating System From A Boot CD/DVD-ROM. If you have physical distribution media, insert the distribution media, and then
specify the CD/DVD drive to use. If you want to install from an .iso image, select Image File, click Browse, and then use the Open dialog box to select the image file to use.
9. Click Next, and then click Finish.
10. In Hyper-V Manager, right-click the name of the virtual machine, and then click Connect.
11. In the Virtual Machine Connection window, click Start. After the virtual machine is initialized, the operating system installation should start automatically. Continue with the operating
system installation as you normally would.
It installed and booted, came up to a blue screen asking me to hit Ctrl-Alt-Del to logon, and when I did, it gave the selection to switch user, task manager, ect... didn't complete the install could not logon - did not have access to the internet to
logon with my Microsoft Account.

Attaching remote event receiver to a list on host web.
We have an O365 Sharepoint 2013 site. I am trying to create a remote event receiver and attach it to a list on host web instead of appweb. Below are the links that I am referencing to do it:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/636058/Adventures-with-SharePoint-2013-Remote-Event-Recei
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/knewton/archive/2012/12/11/defining-content-in-host-web-from-an-app-for-sharepoint.aspx
They are using 'AppInstalled' event to accomplish this. The method is as follows: get the client context of the host web, get our target list in the host web, get the service url of the remote event receiver using code below:
string remoteUrl = string.Format("https://{0}/OurRemoteEventReceiver.svc",
OperationContext.Current.Channel.LocalAddress.Uri.DnsSafeHost + "/services");
and then use it while adding an event receiver to our target list. A different way of obtaining this remoteUrl is shown in the second post.
When I try to do this I get the below error:
CorrelationId: eb837c4c-c434-4067-99f4-ad9b38e30d82
3> ErrorDetail: The remote event receiver callout failed.
3> ErrorType: Transient
3> ErrorTypeName: Intermittent
3> ExceptionMessage: The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error. For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults (either from ServiceBehaviorAttribute or from
the <serviceDebug> configuration behavior) on the server in order to send the exception information back to the client, or turn on tracing as per the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK documentation and inspect the server trace logs.
3> Source: Common
3> SourceName: Common App Deployment
Also, the 'Grant permissions to the App' window appears when I hit Deploy and immediately goes away before I hit or even see the 'Trust it' button. Then, after a while I get the above error in output window. This happens whenever I add the 'AppEventReceiver.svc'
by selecting 'AppInstalled' property to True and then write any code(or even not write any code) in it that targets the host web. Any suggestions please?Hi,
We can add the code snippet below in the "App Installed" event handler.
EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation eventReceiver = new EventReceiverDefinitionCreationInformation();
eventReceiver.EventType = EventReceiverType.ItemAdding;
eventReceiver.ReceiverAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().FullName;
eventReceiver.ReceiverClass = "OurRemoteEventReceiver";
eventReceiver.ReceiverName = "OurRemoteEventReceiver";
eventReceiver.ReceiverUrl = "http://xxx/OurRemoteEventReceiver.svc";
eventReceiver.SequenceNumber = 1000;
Web web = SPutil.getSP("http://sub.domain.com/sites/apps");
List targetList = web.Lists.GetByTitle("Host Web List");
targetList.EventReceivers.Add(eventReceiver);
web.Context.ExecuteQuery();
You will need to include an additional .NET class as well:
using System.Reflection;
If the problem still existed, I suggest to debug your remote event receiver project to find the cause of the error. The link below for your reference:

Get list of classes present in an applet's Jar file?
I have an applet for drawing diagrams, which is bundled in a jarfile together with classes for each type of element in the drawing (e.g. a class for drawing 2-input NAND gates, a class for J-K flip-flops, and so on). When I add a new type of drawing element I have to modify the applet to add the new class to the applet's "Insert" menu to allow the element to be inserted. What I want to do is to search the jarfile containing the applet for any classes derived from DrawingElement and add them automatically to the Insert menu when the applet is inited. I presume this would require using getClass().getClassLoader() to get the class loader that read the JAR file, but from there it would seem I need to know the name of the resource to load. Is there a way of browsing the list of resources in the JAR file?
AndrewThompson64 wrote:
That 'modify the applet' is not strictly necessary. The list of menu items and classes might be passed to the applet as applet parameters, or as a property file or XML (or whatever) that defines the available elements.I could do this -- I'm just trying to avoid getting the list out of step with the contents (or if you prefer, I'm just being lazy!).
Is there a way of browsing the list of resources in the JAR file?Yes and no. You might try this general strategy (untested).
1) Gain an URL to a resource in the Jar in which the plug-ins exist.
2) Parse that URL for everything before the '!' symbol to get an URL for the Jar itself.
3) Get an InputStream from the Jar via URL.openStream().
4) Get a ZipInputStream by wrapping the InputStream.
5) Iterate the ZipEntry(s) to identify classes in the correct package, and store them in a collection of some type.
6) Iterate the collection and check each one for extending DrawingElement, using reflection.
I am guessing step 6 will require the applet to be trusted.Sounds plausible, and I'll give it a whirl. However, I hadn't thought about the "trusted" bit of this; maybe I can just create new instances and cast to DrawingElement, ignoring any that throw exceptions. I'll have to give it a go and see what happens.
BTW - once you have the right classes, how do you get the screen name of them? Is the name defined in one of the attributes of a DrawingElement? What prevents name clashes?Plan A: I have a getIdentification() method that returns a string identifying the element, but I have to keep this unique the hard way (by hand).
Plan B: use the class name with some prettification (e.g. have a class _2_input_NAND_gate which gets displayed as "2 input NAND gate") so that the compiler does the work of keeping it unique. Not sure I like this, though.
Many thanks for your help.
