Inconsistent 'Name' and 'Current Status' restricting ARD

I'm running ARD 3.2 Admin on an Intel iMac and am connecting to various clients on several subnets other than my own. All clients are at v3.2.1. The only way I could think of to really explain the problem is to show a picture of it:
http://picasaweb.google.com/cawaddling/ARD32/photo#5161072000414975378
The first two computers on the list are shown to be offline. However, I can still reach and control the first one on the list, while the second one actually is offline. The next 18 show the computer name correctly as given in the Sharing preference pane. The next four do NOT show the computer name, but instead show the DNS name and the current status says 'Screen Sharing Available'. For these four computers, I am not able to do any of the ARD functions such as installing applications and such - I am only able to share the screen.
Three of the problematic computers are using 10.5.1 and the other one uses 10.4.11, and all have ARD 3.2.1 client running on them. None of the computers has VNC turned on. All of the problem computers are on a subnet other than my own, but so too are most of the computers that are working properly.
I can't find any settings that are different between the good computers and the bad, so any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Chris, I'm having exactly the same problem as you, but to a much worse extent.=

Basically, it's crippling. Each of these is a laptop that has a unique name, but unless I can tell what laptop is what without going through and observing each one. And I'm dealing with 1000 laptops here, so it's crippling.
All of these laptops have mobile users, but I've set up a test-machine on my subnet with mobile users, and that works fine, so it's not the mobile users causing the problem. It's DEFINITELY something to do with the fact that all these computer are on different subnets and in different VLANs.
And it's crippling. Why oh why won't ARD get more development and support? We need an enterprise level solution (and are willing to pay for one) instead of this bug-riddled piece of rubbish.

ARD 3.2.2 - Current Status - Screen Sharing Available

Hello,
like several other users i do have a problem with some of our mac client computers in ARD 3.2.2
Usually those Macs do display a Current Status in ARD like:
Idle (time)
or
Available
which we would call an expected state.
Unfortunally some macs tend to show another status:
"Screen Sharing Available".
This other status results in: a working screen sharing in ARD
BUT other tasks like i.e. UNIX Commands send from ARD to this hosts just dont work as ARD end in the following error message:
The Remote Desktop Client software is not active on HOSTNAME
So as a quick test i ssh'ed into 2 macs, one of those was affected by the problem. Comparing the output of
ls -la | grep Remote
and the result is totally same.
So both macs showed me:
AppleVNServer
ARDHelper
ARDAgent
Then i checked the firewalls on those macs and each firewall has the default ports 5900 & 3283.
The only problem here is that i cant define UDP or TCP on 10.3.9 Macs.
The macs do run Mac OS X versions from 10.3.9 up to 10.5.6
Sometimes a simple reboot fixes the "Screen Sharing Available" issue.
Right now i am wondering how to fix this issue as some threads do suggest re-checking firewall settings ( which i did ) others suggest using a local administrator insteed of the admins name in Sharing.
Right now none of those hints worked for me and i am wondering if this is a known bug and if there is a known solution.
any help is appreciated
Best regards
fidel

I have been experiencing the same problem now for months -- various Macs on my network that I control/administer with ARD 3.2.2 intermittently displaying a status of "Screen Sharing Available".
After reading through this thread, I started poking around in System Preferences on my client Mac (from which I control/administer the others), and I appear to have fixed my problem! I have no idea if this will help anyone else, but here's what I did:
In the "Security" preference pane of "System Preferences", I clicked on the "Firewall" tab. The ensuing window contains a list of applications, each followed by a pop-up menu containing two options: "Block incoming connections" and "Allow incoming connections"
Sure enough, "ARDAgent" was in the list of apps and sure enough, it's setting was "Block incoming connections". I changed this setting to "Allow incoming connections", switched back Apple Remote Desktop, and hit Command-Y to refresh the listing of ARD computers on my network (I did not even quit and re-launch ARD). The list was immediately updated, and ALL of ones that had been showing "Screen Sharing Available" in the "Current Status" column switched to "Available" or "Idle (time)" and their icons switched from pale blue to the normal, darker blue.
Problem solved (at least for now)! Will report back any changes/updates.
Additional information, for those that are interested:
I have 12 Macs on my office LAN that I control remotely from the iMac on my desk (same office, same subnet). All are running ARD 3.2.2.
The iMac on my desk is currently running Mac OS X 10.5.6. It is a first-get Intel iMac.
The 12 Macs on the network are running various versions of OS X from 10.3.9 to 10.5.6. All but one are older PPC Macs; one is a newer, aluminum Intel iMac. As of this morning, all three that are running Leopard were working correctly with ARD, while the results were mixed with the others running both Tiger and Panther. From this, I can only conclude the OS version on the various server Macs makes no difference with regard to this problem, although it MAY be that those running Leopard are immune. I cannot be sure of that, however.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

User exit for Previous and current system status for 5 transactions

Hi Experts
My Objective to capture the Previous and current status of system status for 5 transactions in their user exits .

For Both Production order and   Project System Network Activities Network    ,
i got User exit " EXIT_SAPLCOBT_001 "
But i am not sure whether we can use this or not for our purpose . When i am changing status and then saving , my break point comes to EXIT_SAPLCOBT_001 .
But can we capture   JEST   or   JCDS related data   in that user exit or How can we capture both Previous status and Current ( Means New changed status ) . For eg From Released   to   Technically complete   etc.
I want Status changed and its immedtiate previous status.
Do i need to check Exit or BADI before and after Saving .
Thanks

Gaurav

Hi Himanshu
Many Thanks for the reply .
I also had some other processing needs to be done on the basis of those status. .
So do you have any idea or how to find what all exits or BADIs i can use for all of these 5 transactions , where
i can get data for JCDS ( or JEST ) .
CO02 to edit Production Order
IW32 to edit Plant Maintenance Order
KO02 to edit Internal Order
CJ02 To edit the WBS element
CN22 to edit Network
can we use   EXIT_SAPLCOBT_001 for    CO02 and CN22   .

SMQ2 - Found a queue with name "*" and all other queues stuck in STOP state

Hi all,
We have a problem on the ECC side, on outbound asynchronous proxies. Sometimes a new queue appears on SMQ2 there with name "", and with status "STOP". At this time, all other queues stuck with STOP status... the only way of resetting all those queues to RUNNING state again is to delete the queue named as ""...
Some of you has any idea how this queue "*" appears there and stop all other queues?
thanks
roberti

Hi Ravi,
Is not only about one queue stopped... the problem is this queue named ""... with status STOP, all other queues stops too with it. The only way to make things work again is to delete the queue named as ""... the problem is to discover what or who is creating this stupid "*" queue. I think that this is a procedural error on datacenter, but they are saying is not the case... I'm investigating, but if someone else has any idea about I would appreciate
thanks!

Pre-populate data and current date only when it routes to that person

Hi,
Can any one please advise how to pre-populate the manager's name when it routes to the manager but not when the user fills the form.
Example: user fills the form and submit it to the manager, the process has the query to look up for the manager to route it to him for approve/deny. How can I have the manager's name to pre-populate so he/she does not have to type their name and current date to approve/deny the form.
Thanks in advance,
Han Dao

Paul,
If I have the codes to execute the WS at the initialize event then it does populate the manager info when the user fills the form but when I try to move the code to the pre-submit event which try to execute WS when it route to the manager. I know I did not do it right but have no idea how to make it work.
Is there a way to execute the WS when it routes to the next person rather than when the user fills the form?
Thanks,
Han

ARD - shows aktivities under "CURRENT STATUS"

Hallo...
i'm a little bit unsure because my ARD (AppelRemoteDesktop) shows activities in my Networklist under the tab "CURRENT STATUS"
the tab displays "inactive since 9h" but i dont't work on my Server at this time...
So what kind of activities are perceived from ARD to change the status of inactivities
....also internal processes such as Cron-jobs and stuff like that or ONLY the CLIENT-LOGIN?
Thanks for some help/informations....

AFAIK, the 'idle' time is based on GUI activity only - such as logging, logging out, launching applications, etc.
cron tasks and background tasks (such as the web server, file servers, open directory servers, etc.) have no impact on the ARD 'idle' time - the server could be 100% utilized by background processes and ARD would still report 'idle'.
If your server is reporting idle for 9 hours then some even happened 9 hours ago - either someone logged into the GUI, or logged out.
You can use the command-line utility last to view the login history for this machine.

Script to create directory based on current file name and then save the file in that directory

Hi all,
I have a need save all my projects in a directory using the name of the main image I am working on.
Manually these are the steps I used:
Save As.
Copy ( press command-c <== the filename is highlighted by default so all I have to do is )
New Folder ( press the new folder button. Brings up a dialog box)
Paste ( press command-v. <== Pastes the file name into the "New Folder" dialog box.)
Save ( press thre save button. Saves the files into the new folder )
Save As.
Change format to JPG
Save
Change image quality to 12
I want to assign these actions to a key
Recording these steps and playing them back does not give me the results I need, snce the original name is hard-coded in the actionlist that was recorded
What should I be doing instead ?
Thanks in advance !

You don’t mention which format the original file is (and figuring that and its current settings out seems too much of a hassle to me) so this would only save the jpgs into the folder (and create one if it does not exist).
If you want to give it a try, paste the following text into a new file in ExtendScript Toolkit (part of Photoshop’s installation, Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities/ExtendScript Toolkit CS4 or /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities-CS5/ExtendScript Toolkit CS5) and save it as a jsx-file into Photoshop’s Presets/Scripts-folder.
After restarting Photoshop the Script should be available under File > Scripts and can be assigned a Keyboard Shortcut directly, recorded into an Action, (in CS4 and CS5) be used in a Configurator-Panel or started from ExtendScript Toolkit directly.

Getting Receive File Name and status of application from Biztalk database.

Hello all,
I want to retrieve Receive file name and status of application (started, partially started) in a stored procedure
querying Biztalk databases.
Please share if anybody have an Idea.
Thanks

Hi Nilesh,
Status of BizTalk application can be obtained using ExplorerOM API provided by product. It's Application class has a Status property that returns one of Not Applicable, Started, Stopped, Partially Started.
using Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM;
private string GetApplicationStatus(string applicationName)
BtsCatalogExplorer catalog = new BtsCatalogExplorer();
string status = "";
try
//connection string to BizTalk management database
catalog.ConnectionString = "SERVER=.;DATABASE=BizTalkMgmtDb;Integrated Security=SSPI";
Microsoft.BizTalk.ExplorerOM.Application app = catalog.Applications[applicationName];
if (app == null)
throw new Exception(String.Format("Application '{0}' cannot be found.", applicationName));
status = app.Status.ToString();
catch (Exception ex)
//Handle exception
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("MyMonitoryingApp", "Exception call stack: " + ex.ToString());
finally
if (catalog != null) { catalog.Dispose(); }
return status;
UPDATE: Found the thread from where I got this code. Thanks to Ashwin for providing it.

6.1 NPD - Project Name and Status not showing in the Project Header

I have this issue in 6.1 NPD - The NPD Project Name and Status is not showing in the Project header when opening a project. Any ideas? Thank you.

Is this happening for NPD Projects that are newly created, prior to clicking Save? Or for already existing NPD projects?

Current Status of Creative Suite 3 and Snow Leopard?

I currently have both CS3 Web Design Premium (which includes Photoshop) and Adobe InDesign CS3... both suites essentially comprising all the apps and features of the standard CS3 Suite plus web design.
I know this has been discussed before, but I am assuming that further additional testing and usage has continued... and problems are being solved or not. And in the end an overall opinion or judgment has been reached regarding upgrading Leopard to Snow Leopard. I've been waiting it out to see what the outcome would be.
My Mac is the intel chip 24" Alum. 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Is the CS3 suite compatible with Snow Leopard? If not, what will be the cost or loss in terms of the applications? And, is it worth upgrading to it?
Experienced and knowledgeable feedback is very welcomed and appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks.. have decided not to touch it. You make this kind of investment into software, you are not looking to have to compromise with erratic unpredictable software which in turn burns your time and patience.
Adobe's position is definitely unfortunate unfriendly and unappreciative. It's the arrogance towards what they have developed and a denial of the kind of investment it took to get into their software. The least they could have done was to offer a generous discount for upgrading.
Thanks for taking the time to respond. And here's to don't fix what's not broken

Subject: Current Status of Creative Suite 3 and Snow Leopard?
CS 3 is sort of compatible, but if you are using CS 3 for your livelihood, then stay with Leopard.
For example, Photoshop CS 3 functions adequately for a time, but ultimately starts to show erractic errors, then crashes. Also, excessive memory usage builds the longer it is used.
Adobe has stated it only supports CS 4 and 5 with Snow Leopard. I doubt further modifications will be made by Adobe to CS 3 to iron out the Snow Leopard incompatibilities. Rather unfortunate position, and certainly not a customer friendly approach, especially for anyone investing over $1,000 for software only 3 years old.
To add further fuel to the fire, CS 3 apps now crash in 10.6.3 due to Serial Number/API changes, "unforseen" by all parties.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get itunes to launch properly afterwards?
