How can I allow network users to use File Sharing on 10.8 Server?

I am in the process of setting up a new OS X 10.8 Server. I have exported/imported the network users from my previous OS X 10.6.8 Server using Workspace Manager. I have re-entered the passwords of the users. I have existing clients running (stil logged in).
I have set up the File Sharing service in Server.app. I have several mount points. I have made the Users mount point available for home directories over AFP.
Now, the system administrator can connect to the server and get access to the file shares. So the basic file sharing system works.
Also: the users on a client can get there password verified (e.g. when unlocking screen protection) by the server. It is just AFP they can't get access to, while the system administrator account (OD /Local on the server) can be used. So, the password in the server is OK too. It seems to be a matter of privileges.
But no network user (OD user in directory /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 on the server) can get access. Where can I give network users privileges for File Sharing on the server?
I did try to add either the "Open Directory Users" group or a specific user that was imported into com.apple.access_afp. If I do that, there is partial success. I can connect to the server from the client with a user account other than system administrator from the server (but connecting is slow). But Mobile Home Sync does not work:

Hi Gerben,
Try creating a brand new user, that's not imported and see if that works. Every user/group has a little gear in the Server.app/Users or Groups which allows specific access to specific services, perhaps filesharing is off in that section?
Is your DNS setup properly? Can you verify that clients can see the FQDN of your server?
After setting up the Users folder for mobilehomes, did you check whether the group and the separate users have access to filesharing? I am able to select the correct homefolder /Users and restrict the homefolder size.
Goodluck!
Jeffrey

How can I allow other users on my macbook to view my iphoto library when they are logged in. I do not have a network, and the users (my family) all log in seperately when they use the computer. Does anyone know? Thank you.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
If you want others to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account(s). In the other account(s), enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in their source pane.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.

How can I allow a user (client) to choose a local image file (on his hard drive) and modify it using an applet from his browser ? I am trying to develop a web page that enables the user to choose an Image file, manipulate the image using a java applet, and display the results.
Using Java�s �JFileChooser� does not work when called from a browser, probably due to security privileges issues. On the other hand, I can choose and upload any file using a JavaScript form:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="process.asp">
<INPUT TYPE=FILE NAME="file1"><BR>

It seems that I can choose an image file with a Java script form and process an image with an applet. How can I choose a file AND process it locally ?
(I do not wish to upload the file to the server using JavaScript form and then back to the client�s applet for processing since it will be a tremendous waste of resources).
Will appreciate any solution.
Thanks !

You can do this if you sign the applet...

How can I allow multiple users on XP pro to use the same itunes files

I'm new to this iPod/iTunes stuff and i would like to allow my family to use all the songs that I have on the computer. I installed iTunes 7.0 and loaded all 1800 songs using my user profile. I then let my wife signon and when i opened iTunes she couldn't see all the songs. I placed the iTunes directory in the /All Users/Shared Documents/shared music folder and i made the change to the iTunes preferences.
Other users on the same machine still can't see all the music.
What am I doing wrong?

You're half-way there, GrezGolfer.
To get to the finish line, make sure it's the iTunes Music folder, not the iTunes folder, you've put in the Shared Documents folder. (see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93195 for details.)
And finally, follow the instructions in the last part of that Knowledge Base article for each user - File menu > Add Folder to Library ...

How can I allow a user to control my Edge Animation using only the scrollbar?

I have seen a few examples of an Edge Animation being conrolled by the scrollbar, and I am wondering how I could achieve the same effect.
Example:
http://dominikruckli.ch/scrolltest/scrolltest.html
I have searched the corners of the internet and have found 2 or 3 different tutorials, but none of them have proven successful.
In basic terms, I am creating an animation that involves a character getting from Point A to Point B, from the beginning of my timeline to the end.
Rather than exporting my animation so that it plays automatically, by itself, I would like for a user to scroll vertically, and the playing of the animation moves in conjunction with the scroll bar.
As the user scrolls from top to bottom on the scrollbar, the character in my animation moves from Point A to Point B.
Also, if the user stops scrolling... the character will stop moving as well.
In addition, I would like the surrounding area, outside of my stage, to remain hidden. I do not want to allow the user the ability to scroll around and see off of my designated stage area. I only want the scroll bar to act as a playhead for the animation.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

How can I allow Contribute Users to save documents somewhere other than "docs"?

Our website was rebuilt by an outside company, who took my file structure and dumped it into the new site (I use Dreamweaver and our staff uses Contribute for their little niche of the web). We have a large site with multiple folders within the site. Those folders have several folders below them to sub-divide the tons of info we have to keep straight. However when I set up the parameters for the Contribute users, I only seemed to have one option to save documents (the "docs" folder).
I need for Contribute users to be able to save documents/files deeper in the file structure. How can I do that?
Thanks for any assistance! I hope this made sense.
Mark

The answer depends on how "good" your Contribute users actually are. By default, Contribute always places documents in the same folder as the page in a "documents" folder. I see two potential options: (1) the user(s) needs to go to the where the document needs to live and place the link at that level or (2) you can show your user the "Publish File From My Computer" (under file, in the third section) which would allow them to place the document in the correct location and then link to it from whatever page is appropriate. Personally, that would be a last choice.

JFileChooser, how can you allow the user to select MORE than 1 file?

Hello everyone.
I want to allow the user to select multiple files from a directory, not just 1, but not just the whole directory.
Currently I see these 2 options from looking at the sun's JFileChooser demo:
//Create a file chooser
        fc = new JFileChooser();
        //Uncomment one of the following lines to try a different
        //file selection mode. The first allows just directories
        //to be selected (and, at least in the Java look and feel,
        //shown). The second allows both files and directories
        //to be selected. If you leave these lines commented out,
        //then the default mode (FILES_ONLY) will be used.
        //fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
        fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_AND_DIRECTORIES);but both don't allow the selection of more than 1 file.
When I say, select more than 1 file I mean the user can hold in SHIFT or CTRL and select files.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks!

How do I allow another user to use office for mac

I installed Office 365 while I was the only user but now I have added another user but they cannot access office, how do I give them permission?

Hi,
I have tried to recreate this myself, and your right even after changing ownerships and movie the iPhoto library to the public folder ( Harddrive/Users/Sharing) the second account is still not allowed to access the library. This is strange behaviour because moving the iTunes Music Library to Sharing does allow all users to access the library.
All I can suggest is that you deselect the option in iPhoto preferences (Advanced) to "copy files to iPhoto library" then store your photos in a folder that resides in the Harddrive/Users/Sharing folder - then your wife can use the import command to add them to her copy of iPhoto (she should also deselect the copy to library option)

How can I allow the user to pause the audio of a slide (and restart it) before continuing on to the

Most of my slides have a combination of test/graphics and voiceover. I would like to allow the user to pause, resume, and replay the audio of each slide. I know, as a learner, I sometimes need to go back and hear something again -- or pause until a distraction has passed.
How can I tie audio to a playbar or set of buttons? I know if it's video, it can be done. How do I give them control of the audio?
I am in Captivate 7. My files are .mp3 files.
Thanks - TL

You cannot add extra buttons to the playbar but you could add a Replay button to the slide and have this button execute a Standard Advanced action with a Jump to Slide action that points to the same slide you are currently on. This should effectively jump your user back to the beginning of the same slide.

How can I allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar?

Is it possible to allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar? I also want to provide different permissions to those users. Is this possible through .MAC? Is it possible on Mac OSX Server?

I would like 2 agenda synced through .Mac but it does not work.
I have 2 computers and 2 laptops. A very simple agenda with 3 calenders. Myself my partner and the office calender. I want to publish my calender and that of my partner. The office calender I would like to sync so that we can change the office calender at any location.
I set up sync only for iCall and have a .Mac account. When I change anything on any of the calenders in iCall nothing happens on any of my other locations. Even though the locations are registered as synced. I can see the sync wheel turning but at the end of it the calenders are not synced.
At this moment I fully understand the publish and unpublished calenders but have no clue what so ever what syncing does for iCall. There seems to be no functionality to it. It does not transport any calender info over .Mac. There is no visable check to see what is happening and the process of syncing is not transperent. Lots of my friends go to me for advise on Apple issues but as far as sync wether iCall or Addressbook I always tell them sync does not work and I have no clue why others have it working. I haven't met any people here in Holland either that got in working. I suppose with iCall you have to get third party software to share calenders editable calenders. Really hopeless situation, wish Apple would just have a manual stating what sync can do and what it can not. Hours wasted on this issue trying to get it to work.
Hope anyone here can help out.

How can I allow the user to retake a quiz from the middle of it in Captivate 7?

Hello Captivaters,
I would like to force the learner to pass a quiz before he can continue on with the training. If he doesn't pass the quiz, he will need to go back and take it again. The "retake" button allows him to do this, but I will actually like to have 4-5 of these "quiz checkpoints" in the eLearning -- each separated with presentation material -- so that the user proves he understands the material before advancing.
Therefore I would like to create my own "retake" button at the end of every "quiz checkpoint" that takes the learner back to the first question of that checkpoint (not to the first question in the training). So far, I have been able to create a button that appears after he gets a certain amount correct to allow him to continue, and I want to create a button that appears that takes him back to the first question in the checkpoint if does not get the required amount correct and retake those questions. The first part is easy, but I also need to add the function or reassign some variable to allow the user to retake the quiz. I hope I am making sense.. Any help would be much appreciated!
- Ryan

It's great! Thanks again.
Here is the issue now. I guess it's not a huge problem, it's just if I can't find a better way, what I need to do will take a lot of time.
Like I mentioned before, I created this "results" slide that on enter either shows a "congrats" button or a "retry" button, depending on whether or not the user passed the quiz. I have copied this slide and pasted it behind all of the other sub-quizzes in the training, but when I do that, of course the link between the buttons and the conditional advanced action break.
As you know, when you duplicate a slide, all of the names of the objects on that slide are "refreshed" and are replaced with new generic names because you are in fact creating new objects as well. This means that I need to rename all of the objects on that slide (even though its a duplicate) and then replace all of the "old names" in the advanced action with these new object names.. Is there a faster way to do that?
Thanks again!!

How can a Visual Basic Application be used to read a Netscape LDAP server?

I would Like to know if Visual Basic (ON AN NT WORKSTATION) can be used to access a Netscape LDAP Server (ON UNIX). And If so, will any API calls be necessary? Is there any documentation on using Visual Basic with LDAP?

Hi Ryan,
yes you can use VB with the nsldap32v30.dll or nsldap32v30.dll. You can get this from the iplanet page . The dll is inside the LDAP C SDK. Then, there's a 3 or 4 year old vb sdk with the declarations of the LDAP functions; but this seems not to be available in the web.
Please send me a mail, I'll send you the doc and a sample vb prog.

How to only allow certain users to use internet?

Hello, I've recently taken over the job of overseeing the internet connection here in my building. We have a shared internet connection and I was told to just give out the same WEP key to everyone. The problem now is that many people have canceled, but the WEP key still works. I want to make sure that only people paying for the service are using it. What is the best way of doing this?
1. Generate new WEP keys? I think I can only generate 4. Is there a way of generating more?
2. Block certain "Device Numbers" or "mac addresses?"
I really know very little, so any help would be really appreciated.

change the wep key first and then go to the go to the wireless and then on wireless network access (on the set-up page of your router) and click on the button select MAC address of networked computers and it will display the mac address of the client's that was able to connect using the new key and so you can just easily copy it on the permit only MAC address box to flter the connectoin. So it's much easier than askign each 1 of the client's for the mac address.
Do this right after dissemnating the new wep key to the clients,
