Getting Windows Login after Novell

I have been using XP Pro and ZEN 4 for several years with a Dynamic User
Policy so ZEN creates and manages the local XP accounts (non-volatile).
This have always works prefectly. Now all of a sudden I am having many
computers on campus prompting for a windows login after the user logins to
the Novell client.
I have not changed client version (4.90), have not done any changes or
Service packs to my Netware servers. Have not done anything to change the
configuration on the XP clients.
There is one big thing that happened about a week ago (probably about the
time this started poping up) the server with our Master Replica has a
massive hardware failure and I had to promote a Read/Write replica to
Master and remove the crashed server from Tree. This seemed to go fine,
not errors, NDS "seems" happy.
If a user reboots computer 2,3 or 4 times it eventually will let them in
without the Windows login. It is like the policy is not getting read all
the time.
Any advice or ideas would be so greatly appreciated!!!! I am one person
managing the entire school and a problem like this really consumes me.
Thanks! Pete

Trying to get Windows back after Boot Camp repartition + Ubuntu 14.04LTS install + rEFIt install...

Hello, Boot Camp troubleshooter folks.
Again I come to you with a variation of the same refrain so many others have said. I haven't quite found my exact version of it, so here's mine:
I'm taking an online class that required me to make a third partition for Ubuntu. I'm running a MacBook Pro(6,2) from Mid-2010, running OS X 10.9.5. (Although I'm currently downloading upgrade to Yosemite as we speak. I figured, hey, if my MBR's already messed up, upgrading to Yosemite's not gonna make it any worse.)
I've got a 500GB HDD. It's had 100GB sliced off for Windows 7 Professional x64 for about two years. This was done by following the prompts in Boot Camp Assistant as directed.
Then, a few weeks ago, I ignored the warnings by Disk Utility and sliced off another 15GB off of my remaining 400GB for OS X into the smallest reasonable slice I could set aside for working in Ubuntu. On top of this, I also added the program "rEFIt." So, now, when I boot up my computer, by default, rEFIt comes up and shows me three different icons for getting into Linux, an icon for getting into OS X, an icon for getting into Windows, and an icon for getting into the OS X Recovery Disk.
Ubuntu and OS X work fine. If I select "Windows," I get that "No operating system found" for whatever it says prompt, and I can't do anything.
If I try to do the standard Boot Camp operation (holding down Option when I restart), I see the same list of options I saw before I installed Ubuntu, except again Windows doesn't work.
It seems as though I've shot myself in the foot by my order of operations, since I can't delete either partition in Disk Utility now, I'm guessing because there are too many sectors in the mind of OS X looking at the MBR. So, while Ubuntu and OS X work, I've got a 100GB brick where a functional Windows installation used to be.
The NTFS drive is still listed on my Desktop in OS X, too. All of the files are intact. But squeezing that Ubuntu partition between the OS X and Windows ones has created too many sectors, and I think I need to do that hybrid MBR business.
Here are my results per Loner T's standard instructions:

Now, since this computer's a Mid-2010, there's definitely a new MacBook Pro purchase in my future within the next 1-2 years. I will not make this same mistake again: On the next machine (assuming no inevitable issues with the Apple hybrid drive), I'll do the current OS X version, a sizeable partition done with Boot Camp of Windows 10, and then VirtualBox running Ubuntu. None of this triple partition cr

Well I was lucky enough to get an appointment to see someone at my "local" (40 minutes away) Apple store today. He said there were Windows and Mac files on the same partition. It was a mess...
Anyhow, he reinstalled Leopard for me and I'm back up and running.

How to get pass login after reinstalling snow leopard

I tried unsuccessfully to upgrade to maverick and got an error message stating that the Macintosh HD disk is damaged and to erase the disk and try to install again. I did erase the Macintosh HD disk, reinstalled snow leopard because I have a mid 2010-2011 iMac and reset my password. I was successful but a lot of the icons were missing and did a software update. I ran into problems when I downloaded some software updates and the computer re- booted and now I can't get pass the login screen. Every time I put in my password, the computer accepts the password and I think it is going to bring up the desktop but it just go back to the login screen. I really don't know how to solve this problem, so I'm hoping someone could tell me what to do.

How to Get the Login Window and/or Bypass Login Items?

Greetings, folks!
This is a silly question, but the old standby of “hold down the shift key” doesn’t work in 10.6.1:
What key(s) need to be pressed to get the LogIn window and then after LogIn, to bypass LogIn Items?
Thanks!!
Richard Fairbanks

Not here, on a fresh (erased) install.
Pressed either before or after the initial gray Mac appears, the shift key does not access the LogIn screen. It is possible to bypass the account’s LogIn items by holding down the shift key after the LogIn screen has been called and successfully commenced, but how does one call the Login screen when the Mac is normally set up for automatic login?
It used to be the shift key . . .
Thanks!

Adobe Reader 10.1/ 11 get error "has stopped working" on windows 7 after installed 1 or 2 days, but Adobe Reader is fine==

Turning off the Protected Mode at Startup setting fixed the problem for me. Switched off all protected mode settings in Preferences exited Adobe Reader XI then restarted. Now I can successfully open files without the program crashing. I run the same versions of Adobe Reader and Norton Internet Security on Windows 7 and Windows 8 systems and the problem only occurred on Windows 7.

My settings vanished and are replaced by another user's settings from another windows login. how do I get my settings back? Thunderbird also affected!

My daughter and I have separate windows logins on the same computer. We both use Firefox. Today, when my daughter logged off and I logged on, all of my settings (persona, bookmarks, history, etc) were gone and replaced with hers. My settings are correct in Internet Explorer but Firefox and Thunderbird are using her settings all of the sudden. How do I get my settings back? I have lost all of my emails and everything.

You have something else on that PC that keeps installing that Yahoo crap, it sure as hell isn't Mozilla. Google is and always has been Mozilla's partner for search engines.

Have you taken a look at the HD & SSD manual? Did the recovery fail? If you take a look at this page for help with that.
Please let me know if this has helped.
Good luck!

After creating a contained database, getting a login failure error while trying to connect to it.

After creating a contained database and a user with passowrd under the same database, I tried connecting to the contained database. I entered the server name, login credentials and went to the connection properties tab to select the contained database using
<browse server> option under "connect to database". Here I get the login failure error.
TITLE: Browse Server for Database
Failed to connect to server <servername>\<login>. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
But when I manually enter the Database name instead of selecting from the <browse server> option the connection gets through.
Is this a Bug ? Has anyone else faced this error?

Hello,
Is this a Bug ? Has anyone else faced this error?
It's not a bug, it's working as intended. Contained users don't have instance level permissions and cannot "login" to the instance (which is what the "browse" button is attempting). In order for it to work, the database name must be in the connection string
(which with the browse button, it will not be).
Welcome to contained users, they aren't for everyone.

Hi adil,
For your issue, you can create a custom security token service (STS) and then set up a trust relationship between a SharePoint 2010 farm and the custom STS.

Finder Window Launchs after Login.

Need to figure out why Finder launches window immediately after Log-on. Desktop appears briefly then Finder window opens to Macintosh HD.
Doesn't hurt anything just irritating have to close Finder Window after every Start-up and/or Log-on.
Ideas appreciated!
Thanx

Hi,
Open System Preferences/Accounts then select the Login Items tab.
And go to /Library/Startup Items.
Might be something in the Login Items or Startup Items that requires the Finder.
If not, go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the *com.apple.finder.plist file to the Trash.

Restart your Mac.
