IPTV Content Manager and Novell 6 Zenworks Dynamic Local User

We are running Cisco IPTV viewer 3.2.24 along with Windows 2000 Professional on Dell260 workstations. We run Novell, version 6 with Zenworks 4 and Dynamic Local User to create a new user on the workstation. Every time a new user is created we have to add the tcp/ip address for the Content Manager. Is there a way to retain the address of the Content Manager for any user that is created on the local workstation so that we don't have to enter the address each time a new user sign-on to the workstation?

Unfortunately, it seems, there is no work-around for this problem in 3.2 version of the IPTV Viewer. The Content Manager address is stored in the registry setting in HKEY_USERS.
The behavior is different for viewer 3.4 where the CM address is stored in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and is common to all users.
Solution is -
a. Upgrade to IPTV 3.4 or 3.5 Viewer
or
b. Use the Web-based Program Guide
You could also try playing around with setup.ini/iptv.ini {GuideServer= and GuideServerPort= } settings to see if there is any luck to hard-code this information while installing the software.

Dynamic Local User Issue

When i look at snapins thru consoleone i can see that Zenwork 7.0.1 snapin is installaed.
I have Novell Client 4.91 SP5 and Zenwork Client 7.0.173.91015 installed on the clients running WinXP Pro SP3.
There is different of failures that happens..
Senario 1:
I install a Latitude D610 with a WinXP Pro SP3 original CD, from scratch. I only install the drivers for the LAN-card to get access to the network. I do not update windows updates etc.
I install the Novell Client 4.91 SP5, after that i install Zenwork Client 7.0.173.91015. And apply some registry settings to make the novell client to use the "tab-function" and hide advanced settings etc..
I have my eDir user "ADMIN1" with the policy package with settings to Dynamic Local User set to create a local user with name Admin, but im not using volatile user. So the local windows user Admin will be saved when logged out.
I login once with my Admin1 user, it creates the local profile Admin from Default User (with the help of Zenworks, and the policy Dynamic Local User?). I restart the computer and login again, and the local profile Admin craches and create a new one from Default User but this local user profile is namned Admin.Computername.
Ive tested this with atleast four other computers (different hardware) so it cant be a driver issue.
Ive looked thru the local logs, and i cant find anything about any problem with reading the NTUSER.DAT as could be a problem to load the local profile.
I even tested this senario when i update all windows updates etc, with two different version of the zenworks client and so on. ive been testning this for like 100 times now atleast. and same failure is happening. Ive even tested this in a virtual environment (vmware workstation).
Senari 2:
Like the problem descried above, in some cases it loss the connection or something with the zenwork server side and the zenwork client on the client computer... Since it does not attempt to use the settings from Dynamic Local User, becuase i got the windows login window, and i have to login to an already existing windows local account (with otherwords i cant login to the Admin-profile since i dont know the login information to this account since its created by zenworks / dynamic local user settings, and from the settings there you cant set a password, just the name and role of the windows accout that should be created)..
And after a while i try again, and then the settings from Dynamic Local User passes by and log into the, (let me say) Zenworks created local user profile (set by Dynamic Local User settings).
I wanna mention that all computers thats old, no reinstallation.. I can login to without problem, without any crashes of the Windows Local Profile.
Ive succeded once without any Windows Local profile crash, rebooted this computer over and over again, and no failure. If you succed twice, it seems like its fine. But then i reinstalled this computer, just like i did to make it success. But this time it failed on the second try, and got a crashed profile....
Its kinda old hardware to the server where i have my Zenworks, could that be the case? Could it be some timeouts?
The concults i use to fix some problems in our environment updated zenworks from the serverside just before christmans.. Could it be any problems with some windows patch etc?
Any help would be appreciated!

I only know of one XP SP3 issue that could cause this, but it involves a pw
change and RP:
"When you try to log on to a Windows XP SP3-based computer by using a
roaming profile, the roaming profile cannot load."

Dynamic Local User

Hi,
I have ZfD 3.2 working with a Dynamic Local User (DLU) setup to remove the
Windows XP logon screen and to control student access to the workstation.
The DLU is a member of the Windows group "Users"
I have a full install of Office 2000 Pro (excluding Outlook). The problem I
have is that when a student logs in and starts WORD they are asked to supply
the Office 2000 CD to complete the installation, "The feature you want is
not installed..."
This fails as a "User" does not have rights to install programs. If I make
the DLU a member of "Administrators" then the Install will finish but the
same thing happens when the student logs in again. In any case I need to
have students only members of the "Users" group.
How can I stop this happening?
Ian

IPTV Content Manager

It has been a few years since I have worked with an IPTV. A customer has called and wants to know how to manage his server. He wants a user to be able to set up some feeds. Is there a place you put in a static address for a user to have full access to the content manager. Currently the user gets a message that he has read only. He is using DHCP but I will make a reservation for him. Is it somewhere in the gui or is it a text file you have to edit?
Thanks,
Jay

Depending on the version ...
Newer versions (~3.2 IIRC) require you to edit the security files of the Apache Web server used as the interface for the Content Manager. The password for "Admin" (the default account) is set at installation time but is editable as a text file. I don't have access to my CM right now, but if you follow the path for the CM on the server, you'll find it under the Apache directory structure.
Earlier versions had no security to the CM. If you can get to the CM screen with your browser, you can add or change content. There may be some issues with uploading content (Windows NT4 or WIN2K security applies to directory privileges). That restriction can be changed by defining the user's rights under the Microsoft User Admin utilities.
I'll try to post a specific path and filename for Apache when I get back to work later this week.
Good Luck

CRM Content Management and KM

Hello Everyone,
We are looking to roll out portal integration to our CRM system using the PC-UI iViews. The customer is wanting to utilize the Content Management functionality within the PC-UI/CRM application.
What I am interested in is configuring CRM to STORE the documents from the PC-UI into the KM Repository. There is documentation that describes how to setup a KM WebDAV Repository to view documents stored in CRM through KM. We want to do the opposite and store the CRM documents directly in KM.
My hypothesis is that there is WebDAV support in both products and I 'should' be able to configure CRM to look at KM as 'just an other WebDAV' repository (a'la Content Server)
Ideas? Confusion?

Hi Robetro and Craig,
Can you please let me know if you have found a solution for this.
I have a similar requirement wherein I need to store CRM Content Management documents in KM.
Thanks in advance.

Vivek

Content Manager and DMS

Hi,
I have only had a high level understanding of Content Management up until now. I am currently planning for the storage of CAD, PDF, and Microsoft files for our ECC environment. We are running ECC 6.0. We are planning on using KPro to connect to the content server to retrieve the files. I have reviewed the help on Content Server 6.3 and how that is suppose to be installed and configured. I am not sure how DMS fits into the architecture, does it?
Can you use DMS instead of a seperate content manager server or do they work together?
Can Content Server be installed on and ECC server or must it be on seperate hardware. I was thinking it would be best to have a development content server to test with and a production content server. (If I need a content server at all). If I have to build a content server for development can it share hardware since it will not do very much... only for testing.
Any assistance on this architecture would be great.
Thanks,
Lee

Hi Lee,
You are thinking on right track. Any Pc you can take and make it as a development content server and one important thing, K-Pro and DMS both are different thing. In DMS you can store your documents either in K-Pro or SAP standard server, which can again make it down. So to make use of K-Pro server is best option along with DMS.

Comparitively between Oracle Webcentre content management and Oracle CMSDK

Hi,
Currently for one of my client they are using Oracle CMSDK 9.0.4.2.2 to maintain all the files which comes from upstream system or goes to downstream system for integration, the Oracle CMSDK support variety of protocol support e.g. http, ftp, sftp, NFS, SMB, CUP, WebDev etc.
They have used CMSDK as file system repository, however all the data what we stored in CMSDK goes to database as LOB. This component get installed on Oracle application server.
I am looking for similar product likewise CMSDK for the weblogic platform, as we are upgrading legacy middle ware to Oracle Fusion Middleware SOA Suite.
Is the Oracle web centre could be alternate option for CMSDK? or can you suggest some other Content management product which can be installed on weblogic server and can be integrate with composite process.

+ I want to use OCR/Bar Code features: For bar codes reading you need to use recognition server.Using it it will read the value in bar code and automatically indexed the fields
+ ODC VS WFR: In other way you can call capture process is not automatic i.e manual indexing required But in case if all things are good like quality of invoice etc and you want the process to automate without manual intervention ,this can be achieved with WFR.
see the document below for ODC/WFR integration

Windows 8.1 Dynamic Local User?

Greetings
I am running Zenworks 11.3
I have 4 windows 8.1 desktops that I am testing the latest Novell Client and Zenworks Agent.
Everything works great, I am able to authenticate with novell and zenworks creates the local user account on the desktop. The problem is.... Microsoft's Windows 8.1 does the "splash screen" for about 3 minutes while it "installs the applications" for the Windows 8 metro stuff. This happens for *Every* user that tries to login to that workstation. Once they login once they are fine, but... i can't have the kids wait 3 minutes while Windows 8 does the needfull....
Is there anyway to prevent this? Can I have my students Authenticate with Novell as a unique student... but then utilize a generic "Student" profile that is already on the Device? that way they don't need to wait 3 minutes?
I can install DeepFreeze which will reset the settings everytime they logout... so the next person gets a clean Student profile..... but something has to happen about the delay....
Any suggestions?
I am willing to pay^H^H donate money to somebody to help me out with all of this if required!
Thanks!
John

Yes, you can configured the DLU policy to use a Specific Account.
Make sure to enable "DLU Caching", otherwise it will be volatile.
You can also try and tweak your Default User Profile, so that it is
based on a profile that has already run that process.
You may want to ask in the MS Forums if there is a way to turn that off
for new users, but don't reference DLU or ZENworks as they will not know
about that.

Servlet, Websphere Portal 5.1, Web Content Management and files

Hi everybody,
I created some contents in WCM and I need to store some files with them.
Actually, I have an authoring template, with a text field containing the DocumentId of a LibraryFileComponent.
Manipulating a content, I'm able to get the DocumentId of the LibraryFileComponent. With this DocumentId, I'm able to get the data (a byte array) and the file name.
But I'm not able to get an URL to this component or to display the file on the screen (if it's an image for example)
I tried this kind of thing
Map parametermap = new HashMap();
RenderingContext context = workspace.createRenderingContext(request, response, parametermap);
context.setWcmServletPath("/connect"); // from PortalServer/wcm/config/aptrixjpe.properties - wcm.servlet.path
context.setWcmWebAppPath("/wps/wcm"); // from PortalServer/wcm/config/aptrixjpe.properties - wcm.context.path
context.setRenderedContent(myFile);
System.err.println("ws.generateURL(context, fichier) : "+ws.generateURL(context, myFile));
System.err.println("ws.render(context) : "+ws.render(context));And I get this :
for generateURL : a bad URL with "null" in the middle of it
for render : File Not Found
I don't manage to get something better.
So I want to do another way.
As the real files are hidden, but not their data, when I use the method
JavaDoc wrote: getFile()
Returns the contents of the file contained within this component as a byte array.
I obtain a byte[] containing the data... That's what I want to use.
Method :
Open a new navigator window
put the good headers
put the data
That's what the page, which url is obtained by the render method, do. And that's what I want to reproduce
So I did this
public class GenereFileOneAction extends Action {
   public ActionForward execute
(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
      String documentIdString=request.getParameter("id");
      Workspace ws=Outils.getWorkspace(request);
      try{
         DocumentId id=ws.createDocumentId(documentIdString);
         if (documentIdString.indexOf("LibraryImageComponent")>-1){
            LibraryImageComponent document=(LibraryImageComponent) ws.getById(id);
            if (document!=null){
               genereFile(document, response);
         } else if (documentIdString.indexOf("LibraryFileComponent")>-1){
            LibraryFileComponent document=(LibraryFileComponent) ws.getById(id);
            if (document!=null){
               genereFile(document, response);
      } catch (Throwable t){
         //t.printStackTrace();
      return null;
   public void genereFile(byte[] data, String fileName, HttpServletResponse response){
      System.err.println("genereFile(..., "+fileName+", "+response+")");
      String extension=null;
      String contentType=null;
      if (data!=null && fileName!=null){
         int posPoint=fileName.lastIndexOf('.');
         extension=fileName.substring(posPoint+1).toLowerCase();

         else contentType="application/octet-stream";
         response.reset();
         response.setContentType(contentType);
         response.setContentLength(data.length);
         OutputStream os;
         try {
            os = response.getOutputStream();
            System.err.print("response="+response+", os = "+os+", data=");
            System.err.println(data+", extension="+extension+", contentType="+contentType);
            if (os!=null){
               os.write(data);
               os.flush();
               os.close();
         } catch (Throwable t) {
            t.printStackTrace();
   public void genereFile(LibraryFileComponent file, HttpServletResponse response){
      System.err.println("genereFile("+file+", "+response+")");
      byte[] data=null;
      String fileName=null;
      if (file!=null){
         try {
            System.err.println("file!=null");
            data = file.getFile();
            fileName=file.getFileName();
            genereFile(data, fileName, response);
         } catch (Throwable t) {
            t.printStackTrace();
   public void genereFile(LibraryImageComponent file, HttpServletResponse response){
      System.err.println("genereFile("+file+", "+response+")");
      byte[] data=null;
      String fileName=null;
      if (file!=null){
         System.err.println("file!=null");
         try {
            data = file.getImage();
            fileName=file.getImageFileName();
            genereFile(data, fileName, response);
         } catch (Throwable t) {
            t.printStackTrace();
   }But the result is not the one I want.
Here is my log
genereFile(com.ibm.workplace.wcm.api.WCM_LibraryImageComponent@71373fd7, com.ibm.wps.struts.base.WpsStrutsPortletResponseWrapper@2a9ffd6)
file!=null
genereFile(..., 2004-06-24-02.jpg, com.ibm.wps.struts.base.WpsStrutsPortletResponseWrapper@2a9ffd6)
response=com.ibm.wps.struts.base.WpsStrutsPortletResponseWrapper@2a9ffd6, os = null, data=[B@b26ffd0, extension=jpg, contentType=image/jpeg[/i]
My questions are :
- does any one knows why response.getOutputStream (either response.getWriter) returns null
- when I click on a link to the action, the page on the screen is the last (just where I come from) but the Struts JavaDoc says about the execute methode
Process the specified HTTP request, and create the corresponding HTTP response (or forward to another web component that will create it), with provision for handling exceptions thrown by the business logic. Return an ActionForward instance describing where and how control should be forwarded, or null if the response has already been completed.
So do you think I might have a return in my genereFile methods ?
Thank you

Web content management and using word to contribute

Hello - our users are having issues using word to contirbute and edit content. They contibute something, sometimes in word tables and sometimes not, and it may look fine in word but when it gets converted, it looks differently. Are there any tips/tricks out there that I can share? DC template changes I can make? And thoughts would be great!!

I assume you mean a HTML conversion.
Make sure your people are using Word "styles" and not simply changing the font sizes. You will then need to set up a DC template to render tables & images in specific ways depending on the Word style used. Note that styles can only be paragraph-based. Set as your DC template the default template.

IPTV Content Manager on XP ?

Anyone ever run it on XP ?
We are running it, but I have a strange error when I click on serverwatch.
Everything else seems fine.

Try the following
upgrade the DirectX version to 9a or higher
customize the IPTV Plug-in to use specific URLs as locators for Scheduled Programs rather than the default locatations defined by IPTV

How can I manage and share iWork templates with users on OSX Lion Server?

I would like to use the iWork templates shared in a local Lion OSX Server network.
I would like everybody in the network to use the same iWork templates (is it possible to share these on the server?)
And I want to be able to change or add templates to this shared folder so everybody in the organization has always the same and most up to date templates.
Can somebody please tell me how to do this?

The templates delivered with the apps are embedded in the apps and the license states:
The folder used by the application to reach custom templates is on the local machine.
You may store your custom templates in a folder on the Network but the users would be unable to reach them thru the "Create from a template" menu item. An easy workaround is to install an alias of the folder on every machine.
I'm writing about templates with the official meaning.
If, as several askers, you use the word to name documents, Pages is not designed for this kind of use.
There is no provision in the app to allow several users to work simultaneously on a given document.

Sharing iPhoto and iTunes with multiple local users

My wife and I share the Intel iMac and we want to share both the iTunes and iPhoto libraries...
Can I just place them in the Users/Shared folder, do an Option (first time) launch from each account to identify it's location and can we both access them from there, or is there more to it...
We also want to be able to import and download photos/music from either account into the same library....
thanks

Shawn:
Here are some suggested methods to share:
iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
http://ad.hominem.org/log/2005/07/acl.php
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2151309&#2151309 (see Lori's post and links)
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=579542&tstart=0
http://www.captnswing.net/2004/03/20/shareiphotolibrary.html
And if you'd like to have each user have a total independent library while sharing the same source files see Tutorial #3.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
