GPO on local PC not working

Hello, guys.
I've been running into a problem lately. We are currently trying to automate the printer-installation in our company by using VBScripts.
Right now I have a OU set up with several computers that are in the same room and will therefore get the same printers. First we are placing a vbs.-file on these PCs by using a Group Policy on this OU. This script runs on Startup and works perfectly well.
It places the file into the folder C:\Scripts (if the folder doesn't exist, it creates it).
The problem is the other GPO, which is being applied to all users in our company and runs on logon. It's supposed to look in the folder C:\Scripts and run our .vbs-file in there (If the computer isn't in the OU it obviously won't find anything and will not
run any script). The problem is, it doesn't do that. If I run the script manually, it installs the printers. So the problem has to be with the GPO, right?
This is the path I have given for the script in the GPO: C:\Scripts\printer.vbs
I highly suspect this path doesn't work, though I don't know how to make it work.
I'd appreciate any help, thank you.
Greetings, TheRobidog

Hi,
How is the issue going? Did we enable Loopback processing for the targeted computers? If the issue persists, the following two blogs can be referred
to for further troubleshooting.

Oracle 10gr2 locally is not working after installing Oracle 11g

hi ,
Does anyone has any idea after installing oracle 11g in system, Oracle 10g locally is not working. I am getting below error.
Forms session <2> failed during startup: no response from runtime process

Generally this is because the software you install last updates the system environment variables with its information, thereby break products that use files with similar names. Specifically, look at PATH and ORACLE_HOME. Likely you will see that entries for your 11g installation will be displayed first. In order to use v10, you would need to change this or use script files to start executibles. For Forms runtime, be sure to properly set default.env to point to the desired PATH

Local Printer not working via Remote Link

I have a problem with my remote desktop printing to my local printer. I connect via RD on Windows 7 Home to Windows 7 Pro. I have installed an HP Laserjet Pro CM1415fn printer. All prints fine locally. Also everything printed fine
but have had to have a recent update to my Remote PC that I log into. So the printer had to be reinstalled.
All worked ok for about 6 print jobs then stopped working. Nothing has changed. I have changed the settings on the printer as it seemed to be when the printer went into 'Sleep' mode. I have tried restarting the Printer Spooler in Services
and rebooting the remote PC but no joy.
Any ideas please.

Hi,
You mean after the reinstallation, the local printer worked for a while and then stopped working with nothing changed?
Take a try with the printer troubleshooter:
Open the Printer troubleshooter

Absolute links on hml page in local directory not working

All the absolute links on my html pages (which are on my hardrive) are being treated as local links and are therefore not working - i.e. Firefox is adding the local file path before the url. For example, the original link is: http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article
But Firefox is adding the directory path so the url string becomes: /www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article%E2%80%9D
It is also being appended with: %E2%80%9D (which, when tested from a Word page, leads to site but generates page not found error).
For testing purposes, is there any way I can reconfigure Firefox to parse my links as absolute?
Many thanks

Thanks, both. I have carried out cor-el's suggestion of replacing the smart quotes with dumb quotes, then tried viewing link on file again using different encoading, including UTF-16 - same result as before.
Below I've set the HTML of the whole page, as per yalam96's request (it includes cor-el's suggested fix to the "prosecute" link):
<pre><nowiki><h3>Who do you need to inform (in the UK)?</h3>
If you have a mortgage, you will need to inform your provider (with most lenders this shouldn't be an issue – you do not need “consent to let” as you would if you were letting out the whole property) but you do still need to inform them; why? This is partly for the protection of your lodger, if you should default on the mortgage or die, but mostly for your own protection – if the property was destroyed or badly damaged because of the negligence of your lodger.
If own your property and it's leasehold, check the lease – you may need permission from the freeholder.
If you rent your property, you will need to firstly check with your landlord (this applies whether you rent privately or from a public landlord – Local Authority or Housing Association), and get their permission in writing, just as you would with a mortgage provider. Incidently, in the UK, a public landlord is only likely to object to the let if moving a lodger in would mean your home becomes over crowded (e.g. you have a two bed flat and your children would have to share your bedroom). They will also object – they might even <a href=”http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article">prosecute</a> - if you move out and let the whole property to the “lodger” (who wouldn't be a lodger in that case, but a full tenant, with full tenant's rights).
You may also need to cancel any existing residential home insurance and take out <a href=”http://www.landlordinsurance.biz/landlord-insurance-guides/landlord-insurance-faq/”>landlord insurance</a>. A few residential policies will, however, allow lodgers. Landlord insurance will not cover the lodger's possessions, they will need to get their own insurance, known as Tenant Insurance – policies can be compared on sites such as <a href=”http://www.confused.com/campaign/home-insurance/tenants-content-insurance?MediaCode=1054&kw=lodger+contents+insurance+broad&gclid=CPbbn9-Nj7MCFanItAod3GAAog”>confused.com</a>
If you get a single occupier's discount on your council tax, you will need to inform your local authority, unless your lodger is <a href=”https://www.gov.uk/council-tax/council-tax-exemptions”>exempt</a> from paying council tax (e.g. they're a university student).
NB People claiming Jobseeker's Allowance and most other benefit claimants are not exempt – they are, however, usually entitled to Council Tax Benefit to help with some or all the cost of their council tax.
If you're letting on a Monday – Friday basis (to someone who only needs a week night let), this person would not normally pay council tax at your property, as they already pay against their main (family) home. However, if for whatever reason you and your Monday – Friday lodger decided that they would use your address as their main home, they would then become liable to pay council tax at your address and you would lose any single occupier's discount.
If you claim any kind of means tested benefit (such as job seeker's allowance, housing benefit or council tax benefit) as benefit rules currently stand (January 2013) your rental income will affect this. Contribution based Job Seeker's allowance (JSA(C)) will be affected if your weekly rental income exceeds £50. If you're on income based jobseeker's allowance (JSA(I)), it's very likely to be affected; however, to what extent will depend on your rental earnings and circumstances and a DWP adjudicator will decide this.
However, from October 2013, when Universal Credit takes effect in the UK, <a href=”http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/tenancies/lodger-rules-to-ease-impact-of-bedroom-tax/6522846.article?MsgId=57059”>a public housing tenant's income from renting a room will no longer affect their benefit entitlement.</a></nowiki></pre>

NAC appliance local authentication not working

Hi,
i am trying a test scenario for NAC. it is oob virtual gateway
I get the login page when i try to access the web but when i try to authenticate to the local db i don;t receive an error message and i remain on the authentication screen.
I listened with tcpdump on both interfaces. on the untrusted side i see traffic but on the trusted side no diffrence in traffic appears(but maybe this is normal)
can someone please help with the detailed steps the authentication follows
not just host->nas->nam(localdb)
or some ideas
Thank you!

I doubt this will help, but here goes. I seem to remember a similar issue here, and I went into my browser's proxy settings and turned them off. Then I could authenticate, but not browse the web. So after authenticating I turned them back on and it was fine. There is a tab on the NAC Device Management > Clean Access Servers > >Advanced> Proxy where you can tell clean access about a proxy server, but I don't know if that's relevant.
I assume you have verified that your local user ID works by testing the auth server with it and that it has a profile that allows you to go someplace.

Local printers not working with 2504 WLC

                   I have a 2504 WLC with 3 1262 WAPs in lightweight mode.
     Clients connect using WPA2 PSK AES with no problem. Clients are Windows XP Home SP3. Test pages end up in print queue and eventually get a error printing status. Clients are not part of a domain and in a standalone workgroup - techstream.
Printer can be pinged from wireless client.
Another 1262N WAP in standalone mode connected to same lan from windows 7 sp1 clients have no problem printing to a local printer.
What does work on the Windows XP Home client is connecting to a network shared printer authenticating with domain admin id and password and it works. Reboot and the network shared printer can not connect multiple reasons are "access is denied" and message box says "only security tab will be displayed....."   Another Windows XP Home SP3 client on reboot can't open the network shared printer with message "Can't find printer"
The local printers do work on these pc's with an old colubris router that has an outside interface on our lan and internal network with clients getting dhcp address from colubris router of 192.168.3.XXX .
What is wrong with the wireless 2504 WLC?
Thanks
Broadcast forwarding was enabled.

Although a cisco tech support was helpful in making sure multicasting was enabled and a multicast server defined, the problem was at the CP2025DN printer. It had old network ip mask and gateway configured on the printer.
The new devices were part of the new network configuration (Mask and gateway had changed). I didn’t change that printer when I changed all the other printers at the facility because it was still active thru the old wireless network. I forgot to change the printer ip config when I brought the new wap on the new wireless network with the wlc 2504.
End result was the clients were part of a different subnet and gateway configuration then the printer and this disrupted the communication between clients and the printer. Once I corrected the mask and gateway on the printer to be the same as the dhcp scope of the wireless network, communication and printing worked.
Problem solved. User error

Signed applet on local filesystem not working anymore

Hi,
Everyone knows that accessing local file system has always been a security threat.
But clients are our bread and butter.
Our clients have asked for web app consisting in a zip file, downloaded, containing an html page with dynamic content and links to many pdf.
So far, so good: i download my zip unzip it, access my pdfs, and once every pdfs have been modified, i click on a button that is from a signed applet, and the applet checks which pdfs have changed, and post the files to a web service on a server....Et voilà.
It's been working for at least 5 years like that.
But now my clients are updating to jre 7u45.
And as A LOT OF PEOPLE HERE....my applet won't load and work if i compile it with the new sdk....: i get the InvocationTargetException...exception
Is there an easy way to , step by step, compile , sign and yadi yada...and make it work.
I mean my applet has always did its job..., nothing will change in the code...it's only the annoying changing everything without warning.....
Anyone whould have an alternate approach instead of applet (my guess is NO).....: but nowadays with an applet you program 5 hours and you deploy 10 days.

I have the same issue here and it is not working anymore with auto-signed certificate too
I am going to stop using Safari if that , all is working fine with Chrome Firefox and Opera
Apple says
As a good security practice, you should validate PGP keys you receive, and not trust keys that cannot be validated. Information to validate the Apple Product Security PGP Key is available from
Maybe but this is my problem and if I want to trust anyway I must use another browser

GPO Preference Scheduled task not working

Hi,
System info: Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7
I created a group policy object which switches off automatically all client PCs at 2AM everyday.
But this did not work..the task is running as domain admin.
I have checked GP result and that setting was applied successfully.
Are there other ways to troubleshoot this issues?

> So far in my experience, GP Modeling always help me to troubleshoot why
> such GPO is not being applied to a particular user or computer.
Skip Modeling, use Resultant Report :) And gpupdate - if neccessary at
all - has to be run on the client.

Local snapshots not working

I've read Pondini's articles on this but I still can't work out why Time Machine isn't creating local snapshots of my machine. I have 72GB of 500GB free on my HDD which is definitely over the 10% threshold needed for local snapshots to work (I think) so I don't know why it isn't working.
Any suggestions or help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Linc Davis wrote:
When the disk’s free space is less than 20% of its total available space, Time Machine removes snapshots starting with the oldest one first, and working toward the newest one. If enough space becomes free so that the disk’s free space is more than 20% of its total available space, Time Machine stops removing snapshots.
If the disk’s free space falls below 10% of its total available space, or is less than 5 GB, the task of removing snapshots will be given high priority on your Mac. When free space is between 10%–20% of total available space, removal continues at a lower priority.
If Time Machine is unable to free up enough space to get above the 10% or 5 GB threshold, Time Machine removes all snapshots except the current one, and stops creating new snapshots. Once free space rises above the 10% / 5 GB threshold, a new snapshot is created, and the previous one is removed.
That wording is inconsistent, and is also repeated in the Help. Part of it is left over from early Lion seeds, when the threshold was 20% for small volumes and 10% for larger ones. Bug reports have been filed to get it corrected, but so far there's been no response.
* The first paragraph says snapshots will be removed until there's 20% free.
* The second paragraph says that between 10% and 20%, removal will continue.
* The third paragraph, however, says the threshold is 10% or 5 GB.

Captivate 5 - links are working locally but not working on server - urgent please

Hi, I'd really appreciate your quick help !
I have created a landing page in captivate 5 which has links to the different lessons - also done in captivate. all exported as swf and html.
I've used 'Open URL or file' and chose 'new' to open them in a new window, and unchecked the checkbox that says 'continue playing the project'.
on my computer after publishing, the project works just fine. when i've uploaded it to my server, the external links to the different lessons are not working.
PLEASE urgen assistant - is very much appreciated.
my files are btw in dropbox, if one of u has a moment to look at it.
Thanks!

Rick, I have a weird problem now.
my files sometimes load and sometimes don't!
when I place the url on the current webpage (where the index is) - the files load.
when i click them from the index file, a new window opens up but the files don't load.
this behavior is not consistent. a few hours ago it did work.
any ideas???

TimeZone getDisplayName(Locale) does not work

I have a computer running Linux with Java 1.3.1 and Resin. The problem is that getDisplayName(locale) always returns an english string, even when I try something like zone.getDisplayName(Locale.FRENCH).
Any ideas what can be causing this?
Thanks.

opps just missed out some part:- Try this out now:-
TimeZone zone= TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Paris");
Locale l= new Locale(String.valueOf(Locale.FRENCH),String.valueOf(Locale.FRANCE));
String s=zone.getDisplayName();
System.out.println(s);
String s1=zone.getDisplayName(l);
System.out.println(s1);
System.out.println(l.getDisplayName(l));
/*String str[]= zone.getAvailableIDs();
for (int i=0;i<str.length;i++)
System.out.println(str);
Use the commented part to get ids for different timezones. Currently used in example is Paris.
Also go through the docs below:-
Class TimeZone
getDisplayName
public final String getDisplayName()
Returns a name of this time zone suitable for presentation to the user in the default locale. This method returns the long name, not including daylight savings. If the display name is not available for the locale, then this method returns a string in the format GMT[+-]hh:mm.
Returns:
the human-readable name of this time zone in the default locale.
==================================================================
getDisplayName
public final String getDisplayName(Locale�locale)
Returns a name of this time zone suitable for presentation to the user in the specified locale. This method returns the long name, not including daylight savings. If the display name is not available for the locale, then this method returns a string in the format GMT[+-]hh:mm.
Parameters:
locale - the locale in which to supply the display name.
Returns:
the human-readable name of this time zone in the given locale or in the default locale if the given locale is not recognized.

Quantum Gateway Router - Local DNS not working

I just installed the Quantum Gateway Router, and I can't seem to get local DNS (i.e. user defined DNS entries) to work correctly. I'm able to make user-defined entries under Advanced->DNS Server, but the when I attempt to ping the entries, from any machine on my LAN/WLAN, the entries are not resolved. Has anyone else run into this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That is correct. that would be the address for the dns resolver that is handed out for dhcp connections.
You may want to check that your router is actually getting dns server addresses for use with it's dhcp connection from the wan.
Log into the router
select My Network
Select Network Connections
select Network (home/office)
Halfway down the page see the dns server line
if it says no dns server then it should default to the dns servers provided the wan connection.
you can override the values here by
selecting the drop down value use the following dns servers
then you can 2 values in the fields that appear - typically opendns or google servers.
To see the dns servers that came with the wan dhcp connection
select My Network
Select Network Connections
Select broadband connection
halfway down the page are the dns values
These can be over ridden too by
Selecting settings and then selecting the

It seems to be a bug because the German translation isn't working either.
Installing the xpi file (/usr/lib/firefox/extensions/) manually by dragging it into the addons manager works though.
