I can't connect to multiple web sites and can to others???

I'm Not sure if the title actually explains my problem. I am a novice so please be gentle and precise with me.
I have a Mac OS X 10.6 Desk top. I have had the machine approx 3 months have had no problems before with the sites; I am trying to access now, previously.
I've done the Ping test to the sites I am trying to access and they are coming back clean.
The fault that appears is the usual safari one, saying it cannot connect to the server. Just today after setting up this account it will now not let me log out of it. Saying it cannot find the page I'm looking for?
So I'm at a real loss any help will be welcome
Cheers Everyone

In reality, the DNS translates names like www.apple.com into numerical IP address like 17.251.200.70.

This sounds like it might be a DNS problem. Domain Name Servers (DNS) translate net address (like 192.168.0.1) into names (like www.apple.com). They sometimes get screwed up.
Check what you have set for your DNS servers (in Network Preferences on the Mac, but also on your router). You could try using Google's DNS servers, which work well.

I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
== When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.

Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

my ipod touch safari crashes on full virtion web sits and on some other apps too, any simple solutions.

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
- Go to settings>Safari and delete histor, cahce, cookies, data (What you find listed varies with the iOS on the iPod).

Firefox will not connect to another web site and it will not reopen after I close it.

I have removed Firefox and reinstalled it. I have tried to disable addons but it still will not open unless I reboot my computer. If this problem cannot be fixed easly, I will have to remove Firefox for good. When it is open, it will not connect to any URL I enter. When I close it it will not reopen and I get a message that says I have to restart Windows. This bug needs to be fixed. It worked one day and the next day it would not work.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

My wife and I share our Mac OS 10.6.8 since downloading Skype on her account she can not stay connected to any web site she pulls up. I removed Skype from here account but it stll happens. What can I do to clear this up?

My wife and I share the same Mac OS 10.6.8 and since downloading Skype on her accout she came not asty connected to any web site for more than a few seconds. I have remove Skype from her account but not mine. I don't have the problem on my accout and I still have Skype loaded. How can I fix this problem?

O.k. Thanks for the clarification. I poked around in my TimeCapsule router's settings (TimeCapsule is an Apple Airport Extreme router with attached hard drive for wireless backup/storage). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I can disable multicasting with the TimeCapsule. I can change the multicasting 'rate'. Settings are Low, Medium, High. It's currently set to Low.
I did a few web searches, and found an Apple.com article: <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789?viewlocale=en_US> which explained how to disable Bonjour Service Advertisements. I believe this is the same thing as 'Multicasting'. The process is a modification of "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist", and a restart of the Mac is required afterwards.
I'm a bit concerned that disabling multicasting will interfere with my AppleTVs and iTunes music sharing, but I may try it next time I'm up for a computer workout. This task will require editing of system preference files, could require multiple restarts, might interfere with my AppleTVs, could interfere with my iTunes file sharing, doesn't have a documented relationship to my problem.
This is way to difficult for something that should just work. Did you say you had read something about a relationship between this bonjour multicasting and smb connectivity? If it was online could you post the link?
I'm currently able to connect to the drive using NFS, but I have to manually configure that connection each time I reboot (can't get the 'Disk Utility' configured to do it automatically). While it's working with NFS, it's not my preferred connect method (for various reasons).

I can't connect to a web site via the site's own WiFi.

This is a strange one. When I'm in the New York Public Library and connected to the internet via their WiFi I can connect to any web site EXCEPT the New York Public Library's! (www.nypl.org) It tries connecting then times out every time. I can connect to the NYPL's site when I'm not there from home or other WiFis public or private, and when there I can connect to it on my iPhone, but not from my computer with either Firefox or Safari. Other people with Macs can access the site from there and I went over my settings with one of them but could find no differences.
I'm using 10.5.7 and have the latest updates for Firefox and Safari and the latest updates for OSX. What's frustrating is that when I'm at the library doing research there are databases one can only access from there, not from outside, so it's a very odd situation. Using iPhone for such a reason is quite impractical, too so I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer. I'm sure it's a setting somewhere in my network prefs or something but I'm baffled as to what it might be - has anyone else ever run across something similar?
Thank you!

I am hear at the New York Public Library now. I am connected to the internet on their WiFi but still cannot get to their site at the address http://www.nypl.org , it times out. I pinged them with this result:
Ping has started ...
ping: cannot resolve http://www.nypl.org: Unknown host

Hosting multiple web sites usinf personal web sharing

would someone be kind enough to give me a guide to hosting MULTIPLE web sites on a Mac Mini
i have broadband connected to my router
my mac connects to my router with an ip address of 192.168.1.150
I have registered the domain names and want to forward them to the computer hosting the web sites
how can I get each domain name to point to each different web site on my computer

This is a topic you should post to an Apache discussion group being as though Apple's personal web sharing software is Apache.

Single SSL Web Listener for hosting multiple web sites

Hi All,
We are currently hosting multiple websites with Single HTTP Web Listener .. As of now it's everything is working fine..
Now we have planned to have SSL for the hosted sites
Each hosting site will have different SSL Certificates and i am little confused to use Single SSL Web Listener to host multiple web Sites...
Can any one guide me to use Singel SSL Listener for using all hosted sites..
We are having TMG on DMZ Network on Single Nic..
KJSUBBU

Hi,
it is no problem to host multiple SSL websites with only one IP address / certificate on the TMG Server. Only the authentication options for the published websites must be unique, because you cannot use multiple authentication options in one Listener
TMG Server uses HTTPS to HTTPS bridging, so you can use Host header and more to distinguish between the different internal websites:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc995178.aspx
Regarding the SSL certificate on the internal webservers. TMG must trust the issuing certificate authority which issued certificates for these websites and the name you used to connect from the TMG Server to the internal webserver must part of the CN (Common
Name) or SAN (Subject Alternate Name) on the certificates of the webservers

Multiple Web Sites on OS X Mavericks Server

I want to run multiple test web sites off my home Mac OS X Mavericks Server 10.9 can someone point me to a good "How to" on the specific of how to use the Server application to create and operate multiple web sites of a single Mavericks Server?
Example
MyServer.inno.com          10.0.2.5
Basic web is up and running....
I want to host four other web sites off the same machine for testing purposes how do I do that?
MyServer.inno.com          10.0.2.5
MyServer.web1.com          10.0.2.5
MyServer.web2.com          10.0.2.5
MyServer.web3.com          10.0.2.5
MyServer.web4.com          10.0.2.5
so if I go to the server and load
     MyServer.web1.com          10.0.2.5
it load a different web server.
My thought is to use virtual host how does Apple / Community recommend I set this up...
T.

Please do not squat in the "home.com" domain. If you're going to use a bogus domain, please use a bogus to-level domain such as server.home.jarvis — .jarvis is not currently a valid top-level domain, though that might change with the way ICANN has been bringing many new top-levels online, so a real registration is safer here.
Peter Jarvis wrote:
Assumptions:
     1. The Server is not intended to be publicly accessable from the Internet
How will it be accessed? Entirely privately? No external access? OK.
     2. Private Network - 10.0.1.X
I'd probably pick something a little further into 10, such as 10.8 or 10.10, or 10.20.1.x — if you're ever using a VPN, it's best to use a weirder subnet, and I've worked with several folks that have 10.0.1.0/24 subnets.
     3. DHCP Reservation for the Mac Server - 10.0.1.2.
I usually prefer keep the server and the other fixed-address hosts outside the DHCP pool.
     4. Server Domain name MacServer.home.com
Are you the registrant for the home.com domain? (I'd tend to doubt that, and would therefore suggest use of a real and registered domain or subdomain that you have permission to use or (less desirably) use a bogus top-level domain.)
     5. Example Web Site http:www.rouxacademy.com to also run off the same server...
Is that going to be public?
Prequisites:
     1. Static Server IP Address / DHCP Reserved IP Address against MAC Address
     2. DNS Service Configured and Running
     3. Web Service Configured and Running
     4. Example Web Site http:www.rouxacademy.com
     5. You have a basic website (with mysql) files available
               Directory roux_academy (Contains Basic Web SIte files etc)
OK.
Steps:
     1. Static Server IP Address / DHCP Reserved IP Address against MAC Address
The Airport Airport allows you to Reserve and IP address against a MAC (Media Access Control) physicall address of Server Ethernet Card. You can do this or have the Airport allocated DHCP address from 10.0.1.50 and above and statically allocate the server address of the machine.
I'd leave the server out of the address pool. So long as the pool and all static IP hosts are in the same block (usually a 255.255.255.0 or /24 subnet) it'll all work, and you won't need to entangle the OS X Server with the DHCP server.
     2. DNS Service Configured and Running
Install Mavricks, install OS X Server application, launch server app...
Go to DNS tab, define a new host name MacServer.home.com and associate with 10.0.1.2 IP Addresss
Start DNS Service...
Note: DO not publish DNS service via airport to Internet...
Other than not squatting in that domain, yes. There's no reason to open TCP or UDP port 53 inbound.
   3. Web Service Configured and Running
Go to Web Sites tab...
Click + and create new web site entry
Domain Name:                http:www.rouxacademy.com
IP Address:                     Any
SSL:                               None
Store Files in:                /Volumes/dev/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/roux_academy
Who can access:          Anyone # I would restrict to a single user
Additional Domains:     rouxacademy.com
no http: prefix there, but yes.
If you're not exposing the server to the 'net (as mentioned above) there's probably no need to restrict. If you do need to restrict, you'll need to edit configuration files for Apache, or some other technique — maybe a VPN, if you're allowing (controlled, VPN-based) inbound access into your network.
Start Web Service...
     4. Back to DNS
Add host name....
www.rouxacademy.com / 10.0.1.2
# Do not create an MX record or publish DNS via airport...
AirPort does not know from MX records, and does not provide DNS services. AirPort will know about your local DNS server, since you are apparently using the AirPort for DHCP.
You can also add the DNS translation during step 2; Apache and DNS are not tightly linked here.
Launch Safari and type
     www.rouxacademy.com          - should launch web site...
     rouxacademy.com                   - should launch web site
Caveat: the Real rouxacademy.com will not be accesable from the server or local machines on 10.0.1.X network...
Ah, so there's a key detail — you're playing games and mimicking a real web site? OK.
The rouxacademy.com web site will be accessible from the server, as that'll (also) have the DNS translation (and remember the basis for virtual hosting is the client — the server in this case — has a translation for the host — the rouxacademy.com or www.rouxacademy.com domain in this case — and passes that string over the HTTP or HTTPS connection to the web server.   If you really want to keep the server from accessing this web site, then you'll have to push the local translation of that domain into the hosts file, or to a separate DNS server.
I'd try to avoid this configuration though, particularly as your references to MX earlier implies that this domain might be more active than just the web services discussed here — trying to run split-horizon DNS means you'll get what's internal and external somewhat tangled, and you'll have to keep mail — for instance — aimed outside and web services aimed internally. This is possible for many cases, but gets tricky.
Best to test the web site with a different domain name, and to use /-relative notation for accessing the files, or using the web content management system's configuration settings to control the "published" name of the site.

Configuring multiple web sites in a single OC4J instance with 10g OEM

Hi There,
there doesn't seem to be a way of configuring multiple web sites within a single OC4J instance using the 10g Enterprise Manager Website, so can i assume that there's some performance related issues with doing this, or is it just a case of if you want multiple web sites, configure it manually?
We currently use 9iAS release 1 (which has been configured to use multiple web sites - with normally 1 j2ee app in each website - in a single OC4J clustered instance, using mod_proxy to forward the http requests onto oc4j), but we are looking to migrate to 10g very soon...
The initial configuration was done by an external company, so i'm not entirely sure of the reasons why it was chosen (perhaps so that if there was a problem with a single website, it wouldn't impact all our applications)..
Does anybody else currently use multiple *-web-site.xml's in a 9iAS release 2 or 10g in a production environment, and if so did you encounter any problems with the OEM website (assuming you configured them manually)?
Thanks in advance,
Andy

Hello,
Something like this:
New-OWAVirtualDirectory -WebSiteName "FBA"
Enable the Basic authentication via running the following command:
Set-OWAVirtualDirectory -Identity "yourservername\owa (FBA)" -BasicAuthentication $true
Restart the IIS admin service in services.msc

Creating multiple web site

I create and set up multiple web site for companies. they are hosted on 3rd party sites but i want to control them in iWeb. How can I do that without it replacing the first site i did on iweb

Thank you! Can you tell me if I understand:
iweb 09 doesn't actually require you to split domain files, but it is generally recommended and there are a couple ways to do so.....your preference is to start new each time. Would you, in my case, start a new one for each of my already created sites and then copy the pages into the appropriate site domain file. (there are only 3-4 pages/site) and then delete the original mess? and where do I find this original? I think I saw somewhere where it sits....will go look for that article.
mobileme does not support cname more than once. So, I have one site sitting at dreamhost. No problem. I have another public site I will have to host on mobile me so I'll direct cname here. And then the third site I'll be hosting elsewhere so the cname issue will not matter as things stand. However, any future public sites will need to be hosted elsewhere if I want them to have personal domain names not masked/forwarded, etc. But, if I make a family type site that I don't mind having all that me.com/gobbledygook address to hand off to the grandparents I could do that.
And then I am grateful for your step by step and specific recommendations for the google/optimizing part. I have seen all that stuff but have had trouble figuring what comes first, next, etc. And what services are best to use.
I have pictures scattered on my sites (not the photo templates) do I need to use yummy ftp to somehow manage these on the host site? This is not a piece I really understand. Do they not transfer with my iweb design?
And one site has two short video clips. You don't use quicktime. Can you point me to the resource to do this another way?
Again, I am really thankful for the help.

Hosting multiple web sites.

Dear members:
I am considering OS X Server for a personal project and would like some advice to help me decided what route to take.
My computer will soon be turned into a server hosting my web sites and some other services at my home office. I am thinking about OS X Server as I have done some research and found OS X to require quite a bit of work so that it can do virtual hosting.
How simple is it to configure virtual hosting in OS X Server ? I am considering the latest Leopard version in case it matters. I am not experienced and wish to employ an application that will simplify this process.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thank you,

Joseph:
Although I wouldn't touch any Web-server software other than Mac OS X Server, I should warn you that Apple occasionally favors "pretty" over "practical." I've used PCs and Macs since the Mac Plus was hot, and I've used OS X Server 10.3, 10.4, and now 10.5.3. The last is really excellent, with a gorgeous/powerful Server Admin user-interface, many supporting tools, and thousands of hardball features, but like many Apple "industrial-strength" software products, Mac OS X Server still contains a very few really BAD bugs -- or "oversights" if you prefer.
Before taking the plunge (maybe you already did?), read up on troubleshooting OSX Server's Postfix-based mail service. Even the 10.5.3 upgrade can turn "easy setup" into major frustration; you can do everything by the book and still have weird mail-server glitches. Don't even get me started on documentation for and "centralized" management of Open Directory, Kerberos, etc. I will be migrating to SSL mail security to avoid the user-directory thrash.
When trying to make OSX Server 10.5.3 (a clean install) host *multiple top-level Web domains under a single IP number*, Apple documentation online and on disc didn't offer enough setup detail and virtually NO troubleshooting. Google.com can find what's missing. This archived earlier forum thread saved my bacon....
Topic : "multiple web sites"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=682507
In a nutshell: a multiple-website installation of OSX Server requires careful interaction between the domain-name, IP#, port#, and aliases for each site. When I created my several sites. I relied on the default installation (and Apple instructions) which leaves a wildcard "*" asterisk in each site's Web>Sites>Aliases>WebServerAliases field (in Server Admin). No matter how I diddled with each site's domain-name, IP#, and port# (to create unique combinations), I couldn't force the individual domains to get served independently (despite their shared static IP#) until I DELETED the wildcard WebServerAliases for all the sites. Poof, now it works fine.
Part of the problem is that Apple still publishes documentation on its legendary *drool-proof paper* ("do not expose your LaserWriter to open flame").

You could create local PAC file <http://findproxyforurl.com/pac_file_examples.html> where you can return multiple PROXY servers. You would create text file with your PAC script in it. Then specify System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Proxy -> Automatic Proxy Configuration, and click "Choose File".
If you choose to take BDAqua's advice and create multiple Network Locations, you can then use either
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy1"
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy2"
/usr/sbin/networksetup -switchtolocation "MyCompanysProxy3"
or
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy1"
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy2"
/usr/sbin/scselect "MyCompanysProxy3"
you can put them into a script of your choosing. Shell script, or Automator Run Shell Scirpt, or Applescirpt do shell script (or Perl, Python, Ruby, etc...)

My Mac will not automatically connect to a web site when I double click

My Mac will not automatically connect to a web site when I double click. The Icon blinks but nothing happens. This happened once before but I don't recall how it was fixed. I can often (but not always) open the site by using "open with Safari.app(default)

Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

Why do I sometimes get connected to different web site than link specified and if I go BACK and try again, it works correctly?

This happens infrequently, but sometimes I get connected to a web site that has a Trojan. If I go back and try it again, I get the correct site. I know this happens from the Yahoo site, but it also happens from other sites.

Incorrectly configured server. i.e. missing intermediate chain certificate. IE can download automatically, but Mozilla can't, hence the cert error. As far as why it randomly decides it is valid sometimes prior to you try to add a security exception I don't know.

I can't connect to multiple web sites and can to others???
