Help needed with Mac Server set up

Hi
I have purchased a mini mac server, that i want to use as a replacement for my windows home server, for basic back ups & to run a website with possible remote access.
At the initial configuration screen where if you manually configure your connection via ethernet, after putting the desired internal ip, sub net, router and DNS, it should find my domain on the next page where the server would be named. this does not happen, ( this is where i need the help )
I have a domain name
fixed external ip with my it pointing to my domain name
and a RDNS setup with my ISP
Any help?
you can email me directly : [email protected]
many thanks

If you're running NAT, well, you have some choices on how you might choose to [set up DNS services|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436]. Once you get that sorted, there's a link there to the set-up for the public-facing (outside your external firewall) network configuration, too.

  • Help needed with streaming server

    hello. i work with a firm that provides hosting. one of our
    clients has asked if it was possible to use a streaming server from
    flash. now, to try it out, i've downloaded the trial version for
    the flash media server 2. i've read through the documentation, but
    i still cannot make it do what i want. as an example, i've
    downloaded the 'dynamic playlist' example. i've set it up
    completely as it's said on the site tutorial, yet i cannot connect
    with the server. before you ask, yes, the server is running and the
    application is loaded. the only thing i've really changed in the
    example is the url of the server inside the xml file. when i test
    the flash in flash pro 8, i get the message
    NetConnection.Connect.Failed, no matter what address i use, be it
    localhost, the internal ip address of the firm, or the external ip
    address for access via the net. admitted, i'm not the most
    knowledgable person on flash, but i still need to get that server
    running.
    obviously, my boss wants that server up and running as soon
    as possible. can someone help me to set it up so i can make a
    connection with the server?
    i can be reached at [email protected] thanks in advance to those
    willing to help.

    Hi,
    please try this sample:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashcom/articles/broadcast.html
    The simplest sample works like this:
    1. Create a subdirectory in your [FMS_HOME] called "tutorial"
    2. Create a subdirectory in tutorial called "streams"
    3. Create a subdirectoy in streams called "video" (or use
    _definst_)
    4. Create a flv file using Flash Video and save it in your
    "video" directory.
    The server structure should look like this:
    [FMS_HOME]
    |------- applications
    ______|---------- tutorial
    ____________|---------- streams
    ___________________|----------- video
    ___________________________|---- videoToPlay.flv
    Now you can play the stream from within your flash
    application.
    The quickest application is created like this:
    1. Create a video instance (right click in "Library" and
    select "new video", name it "video" and make sure it's action
    script controlled. Then pull it onto the stage and make sure you
    give the instance a name, e.g. "myVideo")
    2. Now you need 5 lines of code.
    // a connection
    nc = new NetConnection();
    nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/tutorial/video"); // Important:
    No / (slash) at the end
    // Create stream onto your connection
    ns = new NetStream(nc);
    // Link your display to the stream
    myVideo.attachVideo(ns);
    // myVideo is the name of your video's instance (see above)
    // play the video
    ns.play("videoToPlay");
    // videoToPlay for videoToPlay.flv
    I hope this helps!

  • Help needed with OSX Server 10.5.8

    We're running a headless Xserve (RackMac3,1) with OSX Server 10.5.8 that did its job flawlessly.
    Now we want to update the Perl software from 5.8.6 to 5.20.0 or newer. After downloading the suitable version from CPAN we tried to install, but get the following msg:
    Uh-oh, the C compiler 'cc' doesn't seem to be working.
    You need to find a working C compiler.
    Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS vendor,
    or for a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/
    I cannot continue any further, aborting.
    Is there a way to install the missing tools remotely via the command line (SSH)? A step-by-step recipe would be most welcome.
    - Harald -

    RackMac3,1 is PPC/G5 processor so you are not going to have an easy time with this. Perl 5.2.20 is bleeding edge (OS X 10.10.3 comes with v5.16.3).
    I would leave Apple's installation of Perl, etc. on the server strictly alone and install MacPorts:
         The MacPorts Project -- Home
    and work from there. You aren't likely to get a step-by-step recipe because its not an exercise a rational person would chose to spend time on.
    Have you considered rewriting whatever features in your code require Perl 5.2.20 than to upgrade your server? Or buy a new server, you could probably pick up a Mini for about $200.

  • Help needed with exchange server

    I had my exchange server set up for the past few months. Yesterday I stopped receiving my work email. So I deleted the account thinking if I just set it up again it would work.... it didn't! It keeps telling me exchange account verification failed. Nothing changed with the server that I know about. I log in on my home computer thru webmail and I know that's what the server previously was. any ideas on how to make this work???

    I think I'm having the same problem. My exchange email has been working since I got the phone back in August, yesterday I had to change my password because it was expiring so I went to enter the new password into my phone and it wouldn't connect. I deleted the account and tried to set it up again and I keep getting the error "Exchange account verification failed". Nothing I do seems to work. Its very strange everything worked fine and now all of a sudden I can't get it to work.

  • Help Needed with Unresponsive Server

    Hi,
    I have a server at a remote location which is fairly unresponsive. It responds to ping but not much else. I need to restart the server but a psshutdown has done very little.
    I have tried a number of tools but I get RPC Server Unavailable or WMI service unavailable.
    Are there any tools out there that can reboot the server without the use of RPC or WMI?
    We have had a numbe of domain controllers falling over of late due to running out of memory and I believe this could be down to a number of agents we rolled out and a memory leak. Is there a remote processor tool out there I can use to view this? I have
    tried a few but agan they tend to use RPC and WMI.
    Your help with this is much appreciated.

    They can probably help you over here with IDRAC setup.

  • Help needed with Mac - Windows networking

    The situation is a Mac running OS 10.4 and a Toshiba laptop (PC) running XP. Bonjour for Windows is installed on the PC.
    I'm able to connect from the Mac to the PC and mount "My documents".
    Bonjour for Windows regcognized the printer which is shared by the Mac.
    Problem:
    I'm NOT able to connect from the PC to the Mac.
    I try to connect to:
    \\192.168.1.100\shortname
    I get a authentication window where I type the same username and password that I use when I log in to the Mac.
    The authentication window returns with:
    username: WORKGROUP\username
    but does not give me access. It keeps returning.
    Furthermore I can print to the Mac shard printer from the PC, but it doesn't work.
    Personal File Sharing and Windows Sharing are running.
    Maybe these to problems: logging-in and printing are related.
    Your help is very much appreciated because I have no idea what the solution is.
    Thanks in advance.

    OK, I've got the first part, connecting from PC to Mac, working now. I had to re-type my Mac password in Accounts (the account was created before Panter was installed)
    Printing from PC on the Mac shared printer is still not possible. I-re-created the printer with Bonjour on the PC.
    When I print, the queue stays empty and nothing comes out of the printer.
    Any suggestions?

  • Help Needed with Ipod classic set up...

    i have recently been given an ipod classic 80gb and tried to install the new version of itunes...when i tried to load it up it says that the pc isnt suitable for that version.
    i ended up installing itunes version 7.4, i had no problem with this until it said a upgrade was avaible for my ipod. i downloaded this and installed it and now when i connect my ipod it says THE IPOD "ST" CANNOT BE USED BECAUSE IT REQUIRES VERSION 7.6 OR HIGHER.
    I know that 7.6 or higher wont work so how do i get back to what i was using before which was just version 7.4.
    i have tried deleting it from the pc and installing it again but it still says ipod "st" cant be used...i dont even know what ipod 'ST' means.
    any help is appriacted

    I just purchased the 120GB iPod last week and I am experiencing the same issue. My iPod randomly skips songs while halfway through, and if I go back and play a song that had just skipped a moment before, then it plays through all the way. It is VERY frustrating and if Apple does not provide a fix and respond to this serious problem, then I'm going to return my iPod and get a Zune.
    BTW I did not mean this post as a response to SaintMike.

  • Help needed with Mac Mini please

    I have just noticed the start up "dong" has stopped working and I believe this could indicate some problems somewhere, but how (without going to a "genius bar", would I go about finding out the problems?
    I know it has a faulty cd/dvd drive as it no longer burns cd's or even play dvd's (going to be fun when Snow Leopard is released :/ )
    Any advice of any programs I could run etc to try and solve these issues if possible please, and I can not format the drive do to the dvd not working.
    Many thanks, Jim!

    I wouldn't worry about the startup chime. It's been years since my Mini had one. Still works fine.
    For an Intel Mini, you can try an SMC reset. Can't hurt; might help:

    I suspect the CD/DVD drive is just worn-out or too dirty.

    I also have a question on 5. and Vista 64
    -When I game I normally use headphones in game mode or 2. with my headphones, the reason for this is if I set it on 5. I get sounds coming out of all of the wrong channels.
    Now when I watch movies or listen to music I switch to 5. sound in entertainment mode, but to make this work properly I have to open CMSS-3D.

    How do I make 5. render properly on vista

    We ended up getting iTunes cleanly uninstalled and were able to re-install without issue.  All is now mostly well.

  • Help needed with header and upload onto business catalyst

    Can someone help with a problem over a header please?
    I have inserted a rectangle with a jpeg image in  background, in the 'header' section, underneath the menu. It comes up fine on most pages when previsualised, going right to the side of the screen, but stops just before the edge on certain pages. I have double checked that I have placed it in the right place in relation to the guides on the page.
    That's one problem.
    The second problem is that I tried to upload onto business catalyst, which got to 60% and refused to go any further, saying it couldn't find the header picture, giving the title and then u4833-3.fr.png. The picture is in the right folder I have double checked. And it isn't a png. Does it have to be ?
    And the third problem is that I got an email following my upload from business catalyst in Swedish. I am living in France.
    Can anyone help ? Thanks.

    Thanks for replying,
    How can I check the preview in other browsers before I publish a provisional site with BC?
    The rectangle width issue happens on certain pages but not others. The Welecom page is fine when the menu is active, also the contact page, but others are slightly too narrow. Changing the menu spacing doesn’t help - I was already on uniform but tried changing to regular and back.
    In design mode the rectangle is set to the edge of the browser, that’s 100%browser width right?
    Re BC I have about 200 images on 24 different pages and it seems to be having difficulty uploading some of them. But it has managed a couple I named with spaces but not others I named with just one name.
    Is there an issue on size of pictures ? If I need to replace is there a quick way to rename and relink or do I have to insert the photos all over again?
    I’m a novice with Muse with an ambitious site !
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    Answering the questions :
    - Have you checked the preview in Muse and also in other browsers ?
    - Does the rectangle width issue happens when menu is active , or in any specific state , Try to change the menu with uniform spacing and then check.
    - In design view the rectangle is set to 100% browser width ?
    With publishing :
    - Please try to rename the image file and then relink
    - If it happens with other images as well , see if all the image names includes strange characters or spaces.
    - Try again to publish
    With e-mail from BC :
    - Under preferences , please check the country selected.
    - If you have previously created partner account in BC and selected country and language then it would follow that, please check that.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

  • Pls help me with  Mac and had a trial  serial number problems

    Hi,
    I downloaded first the trial version of Photoshop, after 30 days finished but the icon still remained.
    Now, when purchased a creative suite 4 Designe premium, installed, all programs are fine, just the photoshop not working, asking for serial number but when I type the right numbers, doesn`t accept.
    What can I do? any idea?
    to uninstall the photoshop and install again?
    but if I have the other programs working and installed?

    Hi,thank you, that is fine, just not so quick but I resolved the problem alone.Thanks anyway you helped me.Eva

  • I have os 10.4. Why do I need the mac box set to upgrade to snow leopard?

    I have os 10.4. Why do I need the mac box set to upgrade to snow leopard? What happens if I upgrade with just a 10.6 upgrade?

    ds store wrote:
    No iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, Garageband, but I can pinch those off the 10.4 installer disk using Pacifist.
    You can usually get those from the original grey installer discs that came with your Mac without bothering with Pacifist. Look for an 'installed bundled software' or similarly named item on one of those discs, generally the #1 disc. Run that & the original versions of those apps that were bundled with your Mac will be installed. Software Update will let you know if there is an update you can download for them (but of course that won't include an upgrade to a more recent major version, which you would have to buy separately).

  • Help needed with java

    Hello everyone
    I'm a Student and new to java and I have been given a question which I have to go through. I have come across a problem with one of the questions and am stuck, so I was wondering if you guys could help me out.
    here is my code so far:
    A Class that maintains Information about a book
    This might form part of a larger application such
    as a library system, for example.
    @author (your name)
    *@version (a version number or a date)*
    public class Book
    // instance variables or fields
    private String author;
    private String title;
    Set the author and title when the book object is constructed
    public Book(String bookAuthor, String bookTitle)
    author = bookAuthor;
    title = bookTitle;
    Return The name of the author.
    public String getAuthor()
    return author;
    Return The name of the title.
    public String getTitle()
    return title;
    and below are the questions that I need to complete. they just want me to add codes to my current one, but the problem is I don't know where to put them and how I should word them, if that makes sense.
    Add a further instance variable/field pages to the Book class to store the number of pages in the book.
    This should be of type int and should be set to 0 in the Constructor.
    Add a second Constructor with signature
    public Book(String bookAuthor, String bookTitle, int noPages) so it has a third parameter passed to it as well as the author and title;
    this parameter is used - obviously?? - to initialise the number of pages.
    Note: This is easiest done by making a copy of the existing Constructor and adding the parameter.
    Add a getPages() accessor method that returns the number of pages in the book.
    Add a method printDetails() to your Book class. This should print out the Author title and number of pages to the Terminal Window. It is your choice as to how the data is formatted, perhaps all on one line, perhaps on three, and with or without explanatory text. For instance you could print out in the format:
    Title: Robinson Crusoe, Author: Daniel Defoe, Pages:226
    Add a further instance variable/field refNumber() to your Book class. This stores the Library's reference number. It should be of type String and be initialised to the empty String "" in the constructor, as its initial value is not passed in as a parameter. Instead a public mutator method with the signature:
    public void setRefNumber(String ref) should be created. The body of this method should assign the value of the method parameter ref to the refNumber.
    Add a corresponding getRefNumber() accessor method to your class so you can check that the mutator works correctly
    Modify your printDetails() method to include printing the reference number of the book.
    However the method should print the reference number only if it has been set - that is the refNumber has a non-zero length.
    If it has not been set, print "ZZZ" instead.
    Hint Use a conditional statement whose test calls the length() method of the refNumber String and gives a result like:
    Title: Jane Eyre, Author: Charlotte Bronte, Pages:226, RefNo: CB479 or, if the reference number is not set:
    Title: Robinson Crusoe, Author: Daniel Defoe, Pages:347, RefNo: ZZZ
    Modify your setRefNumber() method so that it sets the refNumber field only if the parameter is a string of at least three characters. If it is less than three, then print an error message (which must contain the word error) and leave the field unchanged
    Add a further integer variable/field borrowed to the Book class, to keep a count of the number of times a book has been borrowed. It should (obviously??) be set to 0 in the constructor.
    Add a mutator method borrow() to the class. This should increment (add 1 to) the value of borrowed each time it is called.
    Include an accessor method getBorrowed() that returns the value of borrowed
    Modify Print Details so that it includes the value of the borrowed field along with some explanatory text
    PS. sorry it looks so messey
