Is anyone using the Calendar Server to send external invites?
We have a Mountain Lion server running DNS, Open Directory, File Sharing and VPN. We have recently stood up the Calendar server and it is working very well. Internal invites work fine and are instantaneous to computer, iPhone, iPad. We have the ports working so that calendar items created outside the network work fine as well. Only problem is we cannot invite anyone with an external e-mail address. Each time we do the Calendar Error Log populates with:
2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [-] [mailgateway] 2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [Uninitialized] SMTP Client retrying server. Retry: 5

2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [-] [mailgateway] 2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [Uninitialized] SMTP Client retrying server. Retry: 3

2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [-] [mailgateway] 2013-04-15 13:11:03-0500 [Uninitialized] SMTP Client retrying server. Retry: 1

We have set up an internal e-mail address. I have confined that it works fine. I have tried more than one internal account. I have also verified the settings through the command line by typing "sudo serveradmin settings calendar" The iMIP sending and receiving information is correct. There is no authentication type setting listed in the command line output even though there's a place to choose it in the Enable invitations by email - Edit button on the third screen. No matter what I choose it goes back to "login" and still doesn't work.
The command line settings mention a port number 62310 as being the MailGatewayPort but opening that port on the network's firewall makes no difference. As I said external set up works fine from Mac/iPhone/iPad and push notification works fine as well.
Is anyone using this functionality?

I'm sorry. I forgot to add Mail to the list of services. I AM using mail on that server. Here's the iMIP portion of my settings output from Terminal.
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Server = "boardwalkserver.kuhnwitt.com"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:UseSSL = yes
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Username = "calendarserver"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Address = "[email protected]"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Password = "password"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Sending:Port = 465
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Enabled = yes
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:MailGatewayPort = 62310
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Server = "boardwalkserver.kuhnwitt.com"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:UseSSL = yes
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Username = "calendarserver"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:PollingSeconds = 30
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Type = "imap"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Password = "password"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:Receiving:Port = 993
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:AddressPatterns:_array_index:0 = "mailto:.*"
calendar:Scheduling:iMIP:MailGatewayServer = "localhost"
So Add mail to the services being used. Since Calendar is running on the mail server one would assume that it could communicate with it fairly easily.

Can I use the Calendar Server on OS X Server to sync Calendar

Hello,
I would like to know if I can use OS X Server to sync my calendar and addresses on my different devices (iPhone, iPad and MacBook) like in iCloud, or is this only possible in Workgroups?
Also I wondered if I can connect to my OS X Server shared folder from a differen Network when the server has a WWW Domain name?

It is possible to set up OS X Server with services for calendar and contacts for the users, and when you use the same user login on different devices, the contacts and calendars will update across them (assuming you have network connections to the server and the devices are set to automatically get changes with push notifications). The only issue I've seen with this is when you set up the services on a Mac, you will have the "On My Mac" calendar and contacts group (iCloud does not show this when you set up a device with iCloud as it really is modifying the local copies of the data and pushing changes to the server).
It is possible to connect to shared folders hosted by OS X Server if the server and network are set up correctly. To access it over the internet, you have two options:
Port forward (possibly with NAT translation) AFP or SMB ports through your firewall to your server. This would allow you (from a machine on the internet not on your local network) to access the shared folder in Finder as afp://yourserver.example.com (where yourserver.example.com is your domain name, or in the case of a home server, a dynamic DNS name that updates when your external IP address changes).
Setup VPN on the server and allow VPN services through your firewall. By creating the VPN, you would have access to your network (the one the server is on) like you were locally attached to it and not over the internet (with the exception of Bonjour services. Bonjour broadcasts don't work over VPN). The VPN (if configured properly) would add another level of encryption to the data transfers (I don't recall off the top of my mind if AFP is encrypted by default). You can also set up DHCP and DNS with a primary zone and add the name of your server (and/or other computers) to this zone and be able to use Bonjour like addresses (like myserver.local).
As to which is 'better,' I would recommend the VPN route as I am cautious opening ports on my router/firewall and would allow access to more than just the one machine. But in the end it will depend on what you feel like trying (with the help of these forums, other forums, and Google) and how paranoid you are about security. If you implement the VPN, you could access your shared folders, your contacts and calendars securely from the internet, but you would have to have the VPN enabled to get push notifications/updates.

IOS 7: How to view shared calendars using apple Calendar server

We use an OS X Server with Calendar server. On OS X you can see shared (delegated) calendars in Calendar by selecting the them in the preferences.
Using iOS 6 one could view shared CalDAV calendars by adding the same account more than once each with a different server URL. A fair bit more work but once configured it worked like a charm.
The Calendar app on iOS 7 still does not show delegated or shared calendars using the Calendar server from Apple. Because iOS 7 does not allow to add a CalDAV account more than once the iOS 6 workaround is no longer possible.
How can I view shared Calendars on iOS 7?

How to use the same channel to send a file and messages to the server

I'm trying to develop a simple program that will send and receive files from the server and in the same time I need to communicate with the server through the messages
I'm using TCP Socket
my problem is
I have only one channel
so, I have no option, either I can use it for sending the file itself or sending the message .. but not both !
my question is : How can I use the same channel for sending and receiving (file & message)
I would appreciate for any clue or hint

even though I'm not sure how can I add header to a binary file and remove it from the file at other end. (coz I read it as stream and send as array without touching its contents)

How do I create a Public Group on the Calendar Server?

How do I create a Public Group on the Calendar Server?

Anyone can create Private Groups or Member Only Groups. You must be given
administrative rights to create Public Groups on the Calendar Server. The
Calendar Server Admin (SYSOP) can give anyone rights to create Public Groups by
using the uniadmrights tool.

Go to /users/unison/bin/
and run the uniadmrights
tool. Some sample syntax:

To list all users with administrative rights:
% uniadmrights -ls -host yourhostname

To give John Smith, a user on node 10000, rights to administer Public Groups:
% uniadmrights -e "S=Smith/G=John" -add -pgrp -n 10000

In Calendar Server 4.0, you also have the option of using the Admin Server GUI
to assign Administrative
rights (instead of using the command-line method) by going to User Management,
Administration Rights.

With the proper administrative rights, log into the Calendar Client. Go to Options,
Manage Groups to create a new group. Choose PUBLIC from the dropdown window,
add your users and/or resources and click OK to create the Public Group which
can be seen by all users on the local Calendar Server.

The following is info that I found in another post that I have been trying to follow.

Re: Configure DNS - OS X Server Next Steps
Feb 13, 2011 6:36 AM (in response to Jimbooooooo)
You're setting up internal DNS services, you referenced your ISP DNS servers and you should not have, and now those servers have no translations for your hosts. This is a common misconfiguration.
See [configuring DNS on Mac OS X Server|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1436] for how to set up your internal DNS server.
And if there are any references to your ISP DNS servers here (within your client settings, within your server settings, your Airport settings, etc), then you're usually going to have DNS and connectivity problems. You're running a server now, so you'll be running your own services, and (particularly because of NAT here) referencing only your own DNS server(s).
You may be setting up external DNS (if and when you need that), but that should happen after you set up your internal DNS. The above article has a link to setting up external DNS, when you get around to that, if/when you need in-bound connections into your LAN.

Unable to create an instance of the Calendar Server after installation

Hi,
I've got the exact same problem when launching to JDeveloper.
And I've searched on internet for days.
I did try to modify the number of
MaxPermSize in jdev.conf
and
Xmx and Xms in ide.conf
I've tried several combinations, and sometimes it works.
The disappoint fact is that even with the same combination of the settings, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
Sometimes it just work. Sometimes it doesn't...and after rebooting it works again......Sometimes even rebooting doesn't help.......Sometimes when change MaxPermSize to a smaller number it works...and next time it may not work again....Sometimes you change the MaxPermSize to some other number, save, and then change it back,,,,and it works again...but next time you try to use it, it may not work..........
I don't know what leads to these problems.....anyone could help? Thanks in advance....

Using the SQL Server Agent for the first time

I have set up several jobs to run automatically throughout the day. Each job just does one thing: executes an SSIS package.
The packages themselves run perfect when I test them in Visual Studio 2005, but when the SQL Server Agent tries to run the job I am getting failed jobs.
Is there any tutorials or walkthroughs that can teach my about using the SQL Server Agent? If I wanted extensive help troubleshooting my SQL Server Agent problems which part of the message boards would I post that too?
Thanks for the info!

Anyone?
I really need some resources for SQL Server Agent 2005.

How to use the calendar in beehiveonline?

The docs suggest that you can use the calendar to schedule meetings.
Assuming that I am using Outlook (connected to our internal beehive), and a customer is using Outlook connected to their email server.
What steps are required to allow both of us to see each others availability and schedule a meeting?
Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,
You can use OBEO, Zimbra,Lightning or Caldav to connect to Beehive Online calendar, your customer too can use these clients. Calendar notification emails will come in your ST Beehive account, which will have an ics file as attachment. If required you can also add the external event to your ST Beehive calendar.
Please refer to this link for client access information

Client process (uniengd) on the Calendar server is consuming 100% CPU usage

The Calendar client bits in the Communicator 4.5 release (Calendar Build 981008)
are suspect of hanging the Calendar server when the end user uses the off-line
feature. The behavior seen will be that a cpu will start climbing and could
reach 80-100% of usage, which will cause the response time for all other end
users to be extremely slow and may not even accept any new logins.

The patch for these bits is available via the Smart Update (Windows and Mac) web
site:

http://home.netscape.com/smartupdate/su1_40.html
 Or you can download the complete version from
http://home.netscape.com/download/selectplatform_1_361.html

For Unix platforms, you will need to download the compressed tar file
(available from http://help/filelib.html#nscal)
and reinstall it.
NOTE: To verify that you are executing a patched version, in the
Calendar client:
Windows platform
 Help menu pulldown, About Netscape Calendar, make sure it has Build
981104 or higher.
 Mac platform
 Select the file from your desktop
 File menu pulldown, Get Info. Make sure has a date of 121698, version
4.51 or later.
 Unix platform
 Help menu pulldown, About Netscape Calendar, make sure it has is Version
4.51 or higher

The procedure for determining which user of Calendar is causing the server's cpu
hang is as follows:
<OL>
<LI>Using your favorite monitoring tool on the server, note the PID
 (process ID) of the uniengd process that is consuming
80 - 100% cpu activity.
<LI>Change directory to /users/unision/db/tmp/PID#
<LI>Execute the command "strings" on all the files in the directory
 (there are usually not very many):

 # strings *

 Near the end of the output, you will see the user's name.
<LI>You can now kill the uniengd process on the server:

 # kill PID# (note: do not use the kill -9 unless absolutely
 necessary!)

<LI>Contact the name of the user whose process you looked up and determine
 what version of Calendar client they are using. Immediately inform
 them of your procedure on upgrading to the correct version.
</OL>

Hi TrondWH,
Thanks for contacting Microsoft.
Currently, would you please try cleaning boot the server and test how the issue goes. Cleaning boot can exclude some third-party application affect. Following are the detailed steps about clean boot:
Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start the
 System Configuration Utility.
On the General tab, click Selective Startup, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.
Click OK, Choose Don’t show this message again and then click Restart.
Please check if the issue is still the same.
Please let me know the result.
Best regards,
Sophia Sun

Backing up the Calendar Server

Do I need to use anything except uniarch to backup Calendar Server?

Because some of the Calendar Server information resides on the
Directory Server, it is important to backup the Directory Server at
the same time that you backup the Calendar Server. More information
about uniarch is available in the documentation.

I am using Symantec Backup Exec 12 with an Oracle Agent to back it up. Would you happen to know if it will interface with the database in the same manner as RMAN?

I use iCal, my husband uses the calendar in gmail. For months we had no problems. Recently, he will send me invites and I no longer have the ability to accept or decline. The only way to see the event is if I link is gmail calendar which I do not wish to do. Any solutions?

I've been using iCloud since it's inception as "mac.com" or whatever it was called. I've been able to Sync Outlook Exchange Calenars to my iMac, iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get iCal (when viewed in iCloud) to display Exchange or Google Calender items.
It's odd, all other Mac versions of iCal are happy e.g. iMac, MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPhone etc. But nothing when I login to icloud.com and look at the iCal there.

Thanks. Where could I possibly look for a firewall rule. I knowingly did not creat any. My system has internet coming to a Modem which then is connected to a wireless router. I have computers connecting to the router through cable as well as wireless. One of these computers has been our mailserver using Mercury and Pegasus and that computer has a static IP address. The Mac Mini also has been assigned a different srtatic IP address. I have only set up user account, none of them an email account as I initially expect them to receive only internal mails. Is it necessary that I must set up an email id for each user while setting up the user account. My server id is server.local. So would the email id for local users be [email protected]?

Insert data 32K into a column of type LONG using the oracle server side jdbc driver

Hi,
I need to insert data of more than 32k into a
column of type LONG.
I use the following code:
String s = "larger then 32K";
PreparedStatement pstmt = dbcon.prepareStatement(
"INSERT INTO TEST (LO) VALUES (?)");
pstmt.setCharacterStream(1, new StringReader(s), s.length());
pstmt.executeUpdate();
dbcon.commit();
If I use the "standard" oracle thin client driver from classes_12.zip ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@kn7:1521:kn7a") every thing is working fine. But if I use the oracle server side jdbc driver ("jdbc:default:connection:") I get the exception java.sql.SQLException:
Datasize larger then max. datasize for this type: oracle.jdbc.kprb.KprbDBStatement@50f4f46c
even if the string s exceeds a length of 32767 bytes.
I'm afraid it has something to do with the 32K limitation in PL/SQL but in fact we do not use any PL/SQL code in this case.
What can we do? Using LOB's is not an option because we have client software written in 3rd party 4gl language that is unable to handle LOB's.
Any idea would be appreciated.
