How to force rpc.nisd_resolv to stay off in Solaris 10?

I've got a couple Solaris 10u3 hosts running as NIS slave servers to a Solaris 8 master.
I'd very much like to have them stop spawning rpc.nisd_resolv, so they won't try to do DNS lookups for clients.
I've done the traditional two things that accomplish this: removing the -d option to ypserv, and the -b option to makedbm, so YP_INTERDOMAIN is not in the hosts map (on the Solaris 8 master as well, which is behaving correctly).
I've triple-checked these, rebuilt the hosts map, and restarted all the yp daemons several times. But rpc.nisd_resolv still keeps getting spawned by ypserv.
Is there anything else to check? rpc.nisd_resolv seemed less stubborn in earlier Solaris versions.
Thanks for any tips!

Update:
Somehow, rpc.nisd_resolv eventually spawns on the Solaris 8 master server as well, not just on the Solaris 10 slaves.
I've confirmed several times that none of the ypserv daemons run with -d, and that YP_INTERDOMAIN is not present in the hosts map.
Anyone know of a way to make rpc.nisd_resolv go away for good? One workaround is to rename /usr/sbin/rpc.nisd_resolv, so ypserv can't exec it. But I would rather use a non-kludgy method, if possible.

How to force RPC-HTTP for RD Gateway?

Our company hosts an application through VMs in Azure and RemoteApp. We encountered an issue where the RemoteApp session would time out after some period of inactivity, which is apparently related to how Azure handles the connections. Microsoft support provided
a workaround by setting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\RDGClientTransport to 1 on client machines which forces them to connect to the RD Gateway using RPC-HTTP instead of HTTP or UDP. This works great on Windows machines, but clients
who wish to connect using an Apple computer still have the timeout issue. Is there any way to force this setting on the OS X Remote Desktop client? Even better would be some way to fix this on the server side to we wouldn't have to bother with changing settings
on client machines.
Thanks in advance,
Alex

How to force iPhone 5 to power off?

I'm stuck in a dialog that does not respond to the "cancel" button, which prevents me from sliding the red arrow from powering off.

Try a reset. Hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then release.

Solaris 10 x86 on V20z
Error message:

NIS performs fine for a few minutes after the system starts. After that, these messages start appearing and clients have intermittent NIS service. I have added "ulimit -n 256" to the ypstart script as well as tried adding "set noexec_user_stack = 0" to /etc/system. Niether have had any effect. I have seen some similarly related problems/patches for Solaris 7 and 8 but not for 10.
Any ideas what's going on?

How do i turn off automatic download and make it stay off

I use the preferences in ITUNES to turn off automatic down loads and every time i start iTunes it tries to force me to sign to an ICLOUD account and automatic download. I have tried everything I can find on apple help sites. But you Apple carefully stays away from the subject of how to make it stay off. I have 10.9.4 system
and 11-3 (54) iTunes.

Hello, jadetorchwood.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing error -50.

You can also disable automatic downloads via the steps in the article below.

I would like to force keyboard backlighting to stay on -- How?

Hello,
I have pretty bad eyes and I would like to force keyboard backlighting to stay on--all the time, at the brightest level possible. I compute in low light conditions, but it seems that sometimes the brightness of the screen will cause backlighting to die and then it's hard to get it back on again.
I'm not a very experienced user with back-lit keyboards, but it's one of the features that I really would like to have on all the time (early a.m. and late at night).
When it decides to turn off, it seems the F8, F9 and F10 keys really have no effect...
I'm virtually always plugged in, so power is not an issue.
Any suggestions?

Thanks, I'll look that over and maybe give it a try.
Yeah, definitely give it a spin. I downloaded it and it's pretty slick. I'll definitely be using it when I'm at work. I sit next to a TV monitor and in the afternoon, as the room darkens, the keyboard on my PowerBook goes on and off as the brightness of the TV monitor changes.
Odd that you'd have to go elsewhere to get this kind
of functionality, but I guess that's why someone's
writing that kind of thing.
Perhaps it never occurred to Apple that someone would want to force the backlight to stay on. Or they kind of got caught up in the coolness of using the sensor to control the light, they didn't think of just bypassing it.
Sometimes the hardest things to see are also the most obvious. Back in June, I read the same article by Amit Singh that Alex says helped him, and even played around with some of the code. But until you posted your question, it didn't occur to me to put that code to practical use. I came across Alex's program because I was thinking that you had given me a good idea for a programming project and I was checking to see if anyone else had done it.

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

I downloaded keynote on to my mac laptop. Whenever I quit keynote it disappears off of my dock. How do I get it to stay on my dock?

Once I finish using Keynote I quit the application. Usually it stays on my dock but recently it has been disappearing. I have to use my spotlight to find it and bring it back to my dock but it still disappears the next time I quit Keynote or shut down my computer. How can I get Keynote to stay on my dock?

Easy.
When Keynote is open, drag its icon from the Dock right back onto the Dock.
It's hard to imagine it's that easy, but it is.

How to Force the Display to be On? (W520, for Color Calibration Purpose)

Hi,
I am trying to get the color calibration to work on Linux on my W520 and the color detector seems to work with dispcalGUI. However, when I close the lid of the laptop, the LCD always turns off. I verified that it is not caused by either acpid or the thinkpad_acpi kernel module by unloading them. I cannot find a BIOS option for this either.
How can I force the display to stay on when I close the lid?
Thanks!

Mid 2010 Macbook Pro will not stay off or asleep

Hi,
I have a mid 2010 MacBook Pro will not stay turned off when I tell it to shut down. It will shut down just fine, but a few seconds later it will boot up again. This also happens when I try to close the lid (or just put it to sleep), it will work fine, screen/Apple logo on the back will turn off and the status LED will slowly pulse. However a few seconds later, the LED stops pulsing and the Apple logo will illuminate. If I open the lid I will be greeted with the log in page with zero delay (i.e. its been displaying for a while).
This has become problematic because the computer always be running. If I put it in my laptop bag the computer will get hot as ****. The only way to get it to really turn off is to let the battery die or remove the battery. But this computer does not have the externally removable battery so that is not a trivial process.
The symptoms exist in both Mac OS (Mountain Lion and Maveriks) and Windows 8/8.1. This makes me believe its something in the hardware (or at least a setting in the hardware), not software (I know Apple doesn't care what Windows does, but it is exibiting identical behavior).
I have reset the NVRAM and the SMC with no luck. When I reset the SMC I didn't get a good indication that anything happened though, and was wondering if that is normal. Resetting the NVRAM results in another restart, while its hard to tell if you actually reset the SMC. I reset the SMC by turning the computer off, then holding the power button when it tries to restart (this usually gives me a few minutes where the computer will actually stay off), then pressing shift, control, option and power at the same time and releasing them at the same time. This is how the Apple documentation said to do it. They did not mention how long the must be held though so I presume that doesn't matter.
Anyone experience this/have any ideas?
Thanks,
Jim

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

Is there a way to force a window to stay in front?

I was wondering if there was a way to force a window in OSX to stay in front? For example if I am watching a movie in Quicktime or iTunes is there a way to force the window to stay in front so when I work on other things the movie doesn't get pushed to the back?

Thanks for the update.

I have a 5 month old iMac running Lion and W7 with the latest version of boot camp . It has been operating flawlessly until I went to reboot into Mac tonight. Screen went black, and system is unresponsive. I've tried force quitting and turning power off. Hard drive starts, there's a small amount of drive activity and that's it.

Hi Jane, your info may still be there, look in the Users folder at root of the drive, how many users are there there?
It sounds like this may have happened...
