How to specify "client hostname" so that my router knows it?

I've got a Linksys wifi router giving nice wireless access to my 17" powerbook (OSX 10.3.9). But when I look at the DHCP active IP table, this one (and another Mac I have on the network) both show up with garbage characters on the "client hostname" even though I have the "DHCP client Id" field filled in in the Network, TCP/IP system preference pane. How do I get the router to see my client's name?

In "Sys. Prefs. -> Network -> Airport -> TCP/IP" there's a text field where you can specify a "DHCP Client ID". You might try adding the name you'd like to see in there. You may have to do a "Renew Lease" or disconnect/reconnect to the router to get the client ID to be passed to the router.
However, on my machine the "DHCP client ID" field is left blank and my NetGear wireless router shows the same client name that I've set up in "Sys. Prefs. -> Sharing"... so I guess "your mileage may vary" for different routers...

  • How to specify in "the where" that a column belongs to a set of values ?

    Hi,
    I have a table named EMPLOYEE with a column named ID (ID is also the primary key of the table , and is of type NUMBER) . The table contains two thousands rows. Given a set of number values , I would want to write a query which returns all the employees who have their ID in the set. Please, how to write this query? (My problem is that the set of numbers can change;it can be {1;2;3} or {105;1007;10560;12041} or something else).
    Thanks .

    The usual construct would be
    ...from employee where id in (105,1007,10560,12041)Problem is that this list (set) is not dynamic. but we are working with a database, data is stored in tables there. So one simple solution is: Put your data in a table (may be a temp table) and select from that table.
    ...from employee e where e.id in (select t.id from mytemptable t)If that set list is a collection you have other possibilities. But it depends on the collection type and if you are able to use pl/sql or not.

  • How to specify a table column that is a PL/SQL reserved word

    I am writing the following trigger
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER SMS_MSG_TR_B_U
    BEFORE UPDATE ON sms_msg
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
    IF :OLD.BODY != :NEW.BODY THEN
    RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001,'Invalid update');
    END IF;
    END SMS_MSG_TR_B_U;
    and I get the following error: PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to '!='
    This is because BODY is a reserved word in PL/SQL but it is not in SQL.
    I tried to quote it with " but this does not work.
    Does anybody knows the syntax to be able to test a column that has the name of PL/SQL reserved word?

    You are exactly right, BODY is of type CLOB. So the problem does not lie with the name of the column but the type.
    Thanks!

    Maybe body is of some exotic data type like long or clob, blob?

    You can't erase or delete iCloud accounts, you can only stop using them.  If the previous owner already created the maximum number of iCloud accounts on your phone, all you can do is either re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account to use on another iOS device or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or later), if you have one.

  • How can the client know if the SSL certificate specified in the service-config.xml file is invalid/u

    Hi,
    How can the client know if the SSL certificate specified in the service-config.xml file is invalid/untrusted/expired? For example using iOS client, the trusted certificate will not work and the client has no way to know that the certificate is untrusted. Can the lcds server return any specific exceptions for SSL errors?
    Thanks,
    Swathi.

    We use a standard Java keystore and certificate validation can be handled as per standard best practices. At present we do not provide a hook point to validate the server certificate. However, you can register a bootstrap service which validates the certificate on system startup: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dataservicesjee/4.6/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811f00f 6fe7f-7ffeUpdate.html This would require you to pass another copy of the keystore configuration to you Bootstrap service and then you can inspect the certificate in the keystore and validate it.

    how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

    It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

    How can I launch a site that I designed for a client using their MobileMe account? Can they 'open' my iWeb files on their iWeb software?

    If you give them the Domain.sites2 file that iWeb used to create the site  they will be able to open it with iWeb application (it has to be the same version as you have) and make changes.  But if you're expected to also make changes you'll need a way to send that file back and forth between the two. 
    Also there's an online MacWorld article that describes a way that both of you could manage the site using Dropbox.  Look at Managing an iWeb site from multiple Macs.

  • Problem: how to reset clients so that they re-connect to a OD Server

    I have a problem with our Open Directory clients (running 10.5.x and 10.6.x)
    Due to a hardware failure I needed to re-install our MacOSX Server system. I decided to start over with a fresh installation of OSX 10.6 Server and completely new settings, since I wanted to migrate our server from 10.5 to 10.6 anyway.
    The 10.6 server installation seems to be fine, but I am running into one problem:
    Our client computers were set up to connect to the 10.5 server via the "Directory Services" app. The clients were set to have some managed preferences, like using the Software Update server on the OSX server system; this worked fine with our 10.5 server, and when I initially set up the client systems to access the 10.5 OD server via Directory Services, an auto-configuration started on the client systems, setting up e.g. iChat and Software update to communicate with the server.
    Now in my new installation, this does not happen anymore on our existing systems. To me it looks like the clients still think that they are configured correctly by the server (the IP address and the name of the server did not change). But even when removing the server from Directory Services app on the clients and setting it up again the screen asking if the system should be set up to use the services does not come up again.
    Is there a way to reset the client computers into a state where they think they were never connected to a Open Directory server, so that they re-launch the auto configuration when connecting to our server system? Or is there something I am missing on our server that needs to be configured to set up clients to e.g. use the Software Update server? The Software Update server is running on the server, and the users are set up to use the SU server, but the info seems not to move over to the client systems…
    Thanks a lot,
    Floh

    Maybe you can try this.
    Here is a workaround:
    1) In the Utilities folder, open Keychain Access. In the System keychain, find and delete the three com.apple.kerberos.kdc entries - a certificate and a public/private key pair generated from that certificate.
    2) In Terminal, run 'sudo rm -fr /var/db/krb5kdc' - this will destroy the local KDC database.
    3) In Terminal, run 'sudo /usr/libexec/configureLocalKDC' - this will regenerate the local KDC database, including a new certificate and SHA1 hash.
    4) Bind the machine to OD.
    I use this when i install an new image on an new Mac and have to bind it to our OD server (in our new image this not necessary anymore)

  • How to specify -preview when launching via AppleScript

    I have an InDesign Server CS5.5.I have a shell script that waits for xml files to be placed into a certain directory on the server. When it sees a file in the folder it launches an applescript that controls InDesign Server. I need to know how to specify the -preview option for the InDesign Server binary so the files generated by the server will have previews when they are opened in InDesign client. The apple scripts look like this:
    tell application "InDesign Server"
         -- do some stuff
    end tell
    Where/how would I specify the -preview option. I see nothing referring to the -preview option in the Library for indesign.

    There's two ways to set it:
    1) in command line when you launch the executable, there's a preview option. I don't remember off hand the exact syntax.
    2) In the script itself (using Javascript syntax -- Applescript would be similar) app.serverSettings.imagePreview = true;

  • How to specify the storage access key for a ResourceFile?

    The azure batch tutorial shows how to put program file into a public container in a storage account and let azure batch to download them to TVMs and run.
    In real world scenario, if I don't want to use a public container or a shared access signature and want the azure batch to use a access key to access the container where my task program file is located, is it possible? How to do it?

    I see that you are conversant with the issues here but for other readers let me provide a quick review:
    The properties of a task (ICloudTask/CloudTask) include a collection of ResourceFile instances. ResourceFile instances
    map blobs in Azure Storage to local files in the Container/VM/Guest-OS.  Azure Batch copies the files from storage into the VM before the task runs and it uses the SAS (and other data) in the ResourceFile to do so.
    The ICloudTask/CloudTask.FilesToStage collection exposes the object model's mechanism for customizable file staging.
     The collection accepts instances of IFileStagingProvider which ultimately are invoked to create/augment the ResourceFile collection on the task.
    A default implementation is provided: FileToStage.
    An instance of FileToStage maps a file local to the client library to a file ultimately in the VM (indirecting through
    blob storage/SAS).  When instances of FileToStage are added to the CloudTask.FilesToStage the following occurs on Commit()/AddTask:
    A container is created in the given storage account.  The name is constructed to avoid collisions.
    The container is given a restricted SharedAccessBlobPolicy.
    All of the local files specified are uploaded to that container
    An SAS for each blob is created
    (24hr expiry)
    and a ResourceFile is constructed for each FileToStage
    The ResourceFile for each FileToStage is added to the CloudTask.ResourceFiles collection.
    FileToStage and the FilesToStage collection are intended to assist the customers that either want a shortcut around the issues of blob containers and SAS or want to control the file staging process via a custom implementation of IFileStagingProvider.
    When using the default implementation FileToStage to stage local files, care should be taken to monitor the number of containers created and the storage cost implications.
    Your concerns about SAS based methods are not directly addressed by the default implementation.  I would only note that SAS values can be re-used across tasks and jobs so the existing implementation can be used to get local data into storage and usable
    SAS values.  However, you already have these sorts of features implemented it seems and as you point out, there is the problem of SAS expiry.

  • How to specify alias name in system property while making 2way SSL con ?

    Hi All,
    I am tring to run a java client with 2way SSL which uses CAC card as keystore for the client. I have addded the following system property in my client program to make it work and change the java.security file to add pcks11 provider.
    System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType", "pkcs11");
    System.setProperty("javax.net.debug", "ssl");
    The program works fine and handshake is successfully done . But the problem is when i have more than one trusted certificate in the CAC card, it take a default certificate. I want to specify the certificate that should be used to do the client auth maybe specify the alias name . I didnt find any system property to do so.
    Please let me know how to specify alias name as system property so that the 2way SSL used the specified alias for the client auth or is there any other way to specify the alias name. As in case i acccess the server URL from any browser i get a certificate selection prompt and the connection is established with the selected certificate.
    Thanks in advanced,
    Ruhul

    I didn't find any system property to do so.There isn't one.
    Please let me know how to specify alias name as system propertyYou can't.
    You would have to write a custom KeyManager. See the JSSE Reference Guide.

  • How to determine client locale from the mail?

    How to determine client locale(language/country) from the mail(header)?
    I investigate that some mails have not got any content-language header...
    Also, If mail is in multipart , I cannot get it throught the contentType....
    e.g some header contain header like this: content-Type: "text/html; charset=Big5"
    but some are : content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary......";
    So, how can I know the client locale?
    Thanks

    You should be able to get the charset from the content type, as u said. the reason some types don't have a charset, such as multipart/* types, is because they don't contain any content on their own! they only contain nested body parts, each of which should have a charset specified. you're gonna have to get the charset by following the mail structure recursively.
