KMS server: Office2010 & Win7 react in different ways...

Hi,
we have a virtual infrastructure using Win7 and Office 2010.
Before introducing Office2010, the KMS host was on a Win2008 server, then we decided to move it to a Win7 machine with the Office2010 extension installed. KMS functions were disabled from the Win2008 server.
What happens now is that Win7 OSs are regularly activated by KMS, while Office2010 installations are not... we have verified that the old KMS is no more publishing itself on DNS and that the correct DNS entry is present for the Win7 KMS host. Using nslookup
for further verification also gives the correct results.
Nevertheless, Office 2010 is unable to activate itself on the desktops. We are able to activate the Office2010 instances just using the VAMT tool, forcing the KMS activation for the selected desktops AND manually forcing the IP of the KMS server: when leaving
the tool search the KMS (using the DNS), it fails. Since (as stated before) nslookup gives the expected results (on the same machine where VAMT is installed and failing!), we really don't know what to do... everything seems to be ok, but actually it isn't:
where?
Thank you for your help

I was just looking through questions with no replies. Do you still need assistance with this issue?

If we observe test query is very simple and easy to back track but in Dev it is appending like sawwith0,sawwith1 etc..looking difficult.
Is there in any configuration to change to generate query like Test(with out SAWWITH0).
NOTE:Any how results are same in both instances.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thank You,
Anil Kumar.

Anil,
Are your database settings the same in both of the rpds dev and test?
Check wether you didn't change anything to the default. Open your RDP double click on the Database in the physical layer and go to Feature you can check all the settings there

Win7 - Using KMS Server for Office 2010 - How can you query that it's actually using KMS?

Hi All,
Our Desktop Support alerted me to an issue in which a client received a pop-up notification about activating Office within 30 days.
I started to dig into our KMS Service, having inherited it from a prior, now gone for greener pastures colleague of mine.
I see the Office 2010 key on the KMS Server and there is a corresponding DNS SRV record for the Server.
Here is that information:

Thing is, I try querying for the KMS status on the Win7 machine and there is no entry anywhere that corresponds to Office 2010:

Error: product key not found.
Where can I make certain that Win7's Office 2010 is in fact using KMS for licensing? Is it in the registry?
Thank you very much for your time,
Mr Mister

Hi,
We might consider to use Volume Activation Management Tool to check the Activation Information:
Reporting Activation Information Using Volume Activation Management Tool 2.0
Or we could take a look into the application log for event ID 12288, 12289 as well as 12290. (the 12288 and 12289 should be in pairs: client query-kms response)
More information, please take a look at the below articles:

Hope this may help

Accessing my .mac mail account from 3 different ways. What stays on server?

I access the mail on my .mac mail account (on the .mac mail server) three different ways.
My laptop uses the Mail application and downloads new messages that are not filtered out as spam. Downloaded messages should not be automatically deleted from the server - at least I don't think they are. They were all erased at one point. Maybe my error. But not now. at least since 4/2/08.
Why?
Because later in the day I may want to access my account email from a remote computer via the .mac account page on any browser I might be using. I'd want it all to be there.
Or I may want to download my email to my Palm Treo 700P using Versamail and read and respond to my email that way. I certainly would not want email downloaded to my Treo erased from the server because I would want to access that same email to store on my Mail account on my laptop when I return to the office.
How do I coordinate among all 3?
I think I would like all mail put in the trash via my Mail application on my desktop to be erased from the server after - say - 2 weeks. That's it. Only via the Mail application.
Never via the Treo and Versamail.
Never via my .mac account email application via a browser on another computer.
Steve

You can access a .Mac account as an IMAP or POP account.
If you access your .Mac account as an IMAP account with the Mail.app on your Mac, and as an IMAP account with your Palm Treo, all server stored mailboxes will be kept synchronized with the server automatically with both email clients used, and when accessing the account via webmail using a browser.
You can store the account's Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes on the server with the Mail.app, and you should be able to do the same with the Palm Treo's email client.
Send a message via the account with the Palm Treo, and the sent message will be available in the account's Sent mailbox automatically when checking the account with the Mail.app on your Mac, and when checking the account via webmail using a browser, and vice-versa.
An IMAP account is designed to be accessed with an email client on multiple computers or devices. A POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client on one computer or device.
With an IMAP account, messages in all server stored mailboxes remain on the server until deleted, or until moved to a mailbox stored locally on your computer. All received messages will remain on the server in the account's Inbox mailbox - available when checking the account with the Mail.app, and when checking the account with your Palm Treo, and when checking the account via webmail. Read a received message with the Mail.app that is not deleted, and the message will be marked as read when checking the account with your Palm Treo, and vice-versa.

How to activate Windows 8.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 KMS server when I don't have Windows 2012 R2 kms host key

I only have windows 8.1 kms host key but I can't add a client OS kms key to Windows 2008 R2 kms server. And I don't have Windows 2012 R2 license either. Is there any way I can activate Windows 8.1 using my existing kms server? Thanks.

I would like a yes no clarification answer. So does this mean that EVEN WITH THE PATCH. My Server 2012 Standard edition that currently hosts KMS VA for clients running Win7, Win 8, Office15, Server 2008, Server 2012. Will not be able to host windows 8.1?
I will have to install 8.1 and use as a host?
if you have a KMShost product key for WS2012R2, you can patch a down=level Server and be fine.
(the OP didn't renew SA or otherwise has no KMShost pkey for WS2012R2)

I'm having similar issues and have a similar question that doesn't seem to be answered:
My KMS server is Windows 2008 R2 (Also is my domain controller). I want to activate Windows 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 machines off this KMS server. I can install the 2012 R2 key just fine but receive error 0xC004F015 (The Software Licensing Service reported
that the license is not installed) when I try to install my 8.1 KMS key.
What I'm gathering from this thread is that I have to set up a Windows 8.1 host and set it up to be a KMS server exclusively for activating Windows 8.1. Is this correct? If so, Microsoft needs to fix that. I have a SERVER for activations for a reason: it
is a server, not a client. If I am mis-understanding, how do I get my Windows 2008 R2 server to accept the Windows 8.1 KMS key for activating 8.1 clients?
Thanks!
You don't need Windows 8.1 KMS key. Your 2012 R2 KMS key will be able to activate your Windows 8.1 machines. So your current set up is fine, no need to set up another Windows 8.1 KMS host.
My problem is I don't have 2012 R2 KMS key as I didn't buy any Windows 2012 R2 license. So I can't use 2012 R2 KMS key to activate my Windows 8.1.
Oh that's interesting. I guess I need to play around more because my 8.1 test machine isn't activating. I'll start a new thread for that if needed. Sorry for the confusion.

Moving a KMS Server and Disabling KMS host caching

I am moving my KMS server from a 2003 server to a 2012 R2 server. I have KMS installed on the new server, the host keys installed, and I have forced several clients to check in to the new server to reach the activation limits. Here are my questions.
At one point (thru a vbs script) we forced quite a few clients to check into the old server. Now we want to make sure all clients check into the new server. Since the clients have cached the old KMS host (some forced and some thru auto discovery), will
disabling KMS host caching on the old server and removing the DNS record force all clients to contact the new server? If not, what is the best way to accomplish this?
Russ

KMSclients which are configured for default auto-discovery, will re-discover via DNS in the event that they cannot contact the cached or discovered KMShost.
You could also consider adjusting the priority of the DNS records for OLDhost vs. NEWhost, such that the NEWhost has a higher priority. You might also consider disabling DNS auto-publishing for the OLDhost, and then delete the DNS RR for OLDhost.
For those clients which were "forced", if the OLDhost is statically configured in those clients, you'll need to reconfigure those clients, either back to auto-discover or statically repoint to NEWhost (whichever you prefer)
KMS host caching is different to statically configuring clients.
KMS host caching is intended to avoid excessive DNS queries, i.e. the client will cache the host name and only issue a query is that cached host is uncontactable.
A static configuration of the hostname, at the client, completely bypasses/disables the DNSlookup/discovery.

Different ways to shutdown and startup instance in 10g

I have just installed 10g on my win2003 server. There seems to be 3 different ways to shutdown / startup an instance in 10g.
1. via SQLPLUS (how its always been) with shutdown and startup commands
2. via the new OEM Web interface
3. Start / Stop the NT Service for the instance
questions:
- Did I miss anything other methods?
- how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB login, when shutdown or startup? but via SQLPLUS I only have to login using as DBA? different level of security?
- When shutdown via either SQLPLUS or OEM, the NT service is still shown as "started"? so does this mean that the NT service is more than the oracle instance???
Thanks
Clo

how come OEM ask for O/S login as well as DB loginWith SQL*Plus, you are already logged into the Operating System. There is a OS session in progress. With OEM web interface, it has to first start a OS session and then connect to Oracle using Oracle credentials supplied to actually shutdown the DB.
the NT service is still shown as "started"? The difference between NT service started or not started (given that the database was already shutdown) will be:
When NT service is started but the DB is shutdown, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Enter user-name:When NT service is stopped, your users will get this error message:
Enter user-name: scott
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
Enter user-name:The NT service needs to be running for you to be able to do a STARTUP or SHUTDOWN on the database. You will NOT be able to STARTUP if the NT service was not running (STARTUP will not start your NT service automatically).

Challenge: Different ways to crash the JVM.

This is a challenge to find different ways to crash the JVM with code written in Java.
For starters: Mis-use of the Unsafe class.
Field field = Unsafe.class.getDeclaredField("theUnsafe");
field.setAccessible(true);
Unsafe unsafe = (Unsafe) field.get(null);
unsafe.getObject(null, 0L); // or many variations on methods in this class.

Although I presume you mean the latest JVM (6u11), I can reproduce a crash with 1.5.0_05 fairly frequently using the SQL tool "squirrel" ( [http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/]) during startup (while the splash screen is visible):
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xb7a02c41, pid=9019, tid=2651868080
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (1.5.0_05-b05 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# V [libjvm.so+0x39ec41]The crash is not reproducible on 6u10 (haven't tried it with 6u11), so I don't know how relevant this tidbit actually is but would be glad to check into it with a few other JVMs. For what it's worth, the above happens on RH Enterprise Linux (2.6.9 kernel, smt, Xeon CPU).

2 different ways to setup IPSec ?

Hello,
I am currently trying to setup IPSec tunnel between a pfSense router and a Windows Server 2008R2 (The windows server is located behind a router with NAT enable).
First of all, I found two different ways to configure IPsec on Windows :
1) Through Windows Firewall with advanced Security
2) Through IPSec snap-in into MMC.
Which one should I use ?
Well, anyhow I got some troubles to negotiate phase1. By analyzing packets, it turns out that Windows server always return a NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN error code.
My settings for phase1 (on both sides):
Authentication method: PSK
Negotiation mode: main
Encryption: 3DES
Hash: SHA1
DH Key group : 2 (1024)
Lifetime: 28800
(NAT-T Enabled on pfSense)
Finally, I noticed that it is possible to define peer identifiers on pfSense. Is it possible to do the same on the windows server or does it automatically use the IP addresses as peer identifiers ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,

Hi bibibubu1,
The 2008r2 can’t establish an IPsec tunnel behind NAT-T have a known issue, please confirm the following KB meet your environment then install the hotfix. Another possible

URGENT Different ways of creating portals (Daniel & subbu Have a look and answer)

Hi all,
My primary aim is to run an existing application in a portal server.
My application is running in weblogic6.1. I need to provide a link to that application
from a portlet.
I was going thro' the newsgroups and I found out the following responses for my
requirement,
I am not clear with these answers.
1) I need to know what is an IFRAME and some more steps to execute the answer
given by
Daniel selman.
2) Can I convert an URL into portlet?
This URL content should be shown as it, without has to write any code from the
side of developer.
Plz give me some detailed steps to execute this.
If you guyz can give me some good reference document probably a cook book sort
of thing, then I will feel more comfortable.
Thanx in advance,

Different ways of creating portlets
Answered By Daniel selman.
You can also use an IFRAME inside a Portlet to "include" an external URL within
a Portlet page.
I have attached an example of doing this (content.jsp for the portlet uses an
IFRAME to include www.google.com).
Can I convert an URL into portlet?
Answered By Subbu Allamaraju <subbuATBeaDOTCom>
This URL content should be shown as it, without has to write any code from the
side of developer. The example provided in portal installation needs demonstrates
this feature to some extent. But the developer is supposed to extract HTML content
he/she wants to see and put it in the JSP.
If the URL is pointing to a page in the same web app, it is straight forward
to make it a portlet.
I have few JSPs running in a machine that is remote to the portal node, and which
is accessible through a proxy from portal. Can I convert these applications into
portlets?
Answered By Subbu Allamaraju <subbuATBeaDOTCom>
The easiest approach is make those remote apps available as web services. Please
look at the portal wizard that can create portlets to talk to web services. The
same wizard will also help convering remote
URLs to portlets.
I have a full fledged webapplication running on weblogic server. But for some
additional features (commercial services) I need to used portal server. How do
i modify the existing site for the desired
change?
Answered By Subbu Allamaraju <subbuATBeaDOTCom>
This will involve some amount of redesign since you're converint a regular web
site into a portal (the domain/portal wizards will help you do this). You'll then
need to create a new portal app, and convert those web apps into portlets, and
add these portlets to the new portal app.

Prasanna,
It is impossible to answer this question is a general way, it all depends on
what the other web application is doing. If it is just returning static HTML
then a home-grown solution (scrape taglib / IFRAME) and some URL rewriting
will suffice. If the remote application requires authentication, uses SSL,
cookies, Javascript, displays pop-ups etc. then things can get complicated
extremely quickly. At that point you probably need to use a 3rd-party web
scraping engine (Kapow for example. Peter Laird posted a list of many
others.)
There are network throughput, single sign-on, and performance issues to
consider. Obviously the most performant solution entails converting your
exisitng WLS application into a Portal application, by refactoring its JSPs,
deploying its EJBs etc. Alternatively making remote calls into your business
objects (EJBs) or deploying WebServices to extract the DATA from the remote
application independent of the presentation may be an option for well
architected applications.
So, sorry, I'm afraid it is very hard to generalize these things into much
more than a list of issues that you should consider as you work through the
possible solutions.
FYI: IFRAME is supported by IE 5+ and Netscape 6.x:

This URL content should be shown as it, without has to write any code fromthe
side of developer. The example provided in portal installation needsdemonstrates
this feature to some extent. But the developer is supposed to extract HTMLcontent
he/she wants to see and put it in the JSP.
If the URL is pointing to a page in the same web app, it isstraight forward
to make it a portlet.
I have few JSPs running in a machine that is remote to the portal node,and which
is accessible through a proxy from portal. Can I convert theseapplications into
portlets?
Answered By Subbu Allamaraju <subbuATBeaDOTCom>
The easiest approach is make those remote apps available as web services.Please
look at the portal wizard that can create portlets to talk to webservices. The
same wizard will also help converingremote
URLs to portlets.
I have a full fledged webapplication running on weblogic server. But forsome
additional features (commercial services) I need to used portal server.How do
i modify the existing site for thedesired
change?
Answered By Subbu Allamaraju <subbuATBeaDOTCom>
This will involve some amount of redesign since you're converint a regularweb
site into a portal (the domain/portal wizards will help you do this).You'll then
need to create a new portal app, and convert those web apps into portlets,and
add these portlets to the new portal app.

Can i Host the KMS Server in the Server which is a KMS client of other KMS Server

Hi,
Is it Possiblei can Host the KMS Server in the Server(2012 R2) which is a KMS client of other KMS Server..?
If yes ... Do i need to do any special configuration for that or normal Host configuration is enough..?
Thanks
Balaji K

Hi Sir,
"The KMS service does not require a dedicated server. The KMS service can be co-hosted with other services, such as Active Directory® Domain Services (AD DS) domain controllers and read-only domain controllers (RODCs).
KMS hosts can also run on physical computers or virtual machines that are running any supported Windows operating system, including Windows Server 2003. Although a KMS host that is running Windows Server 2008 R2 can activate any Windows operating
system that supports Volume Activation, a KMS host that is running Windows 7 can activate only computers running Windows 7 and Windows Vista."
Based on this ,it should work .
If you want to activate a windows server please enable KMS on a server .
"By default, client computers connect to the KMS host for activation by using anonymous RPCs through TCP port 1688. (You can change the default port.) After establishing a TCP session with the KMS host, the client sends a single request packet.
The KMS host responds with the activation count. If the count meets or exceeds the activation threshold for that operating system, the client is activated and the session is closed. The KMS client uses this same process for renewal requests. The communication
each way is 250 bytes."

Also you can change it if that port is used by other service :

Different ways for inter-application communcations

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me how many different ways by which an application created in java can communicate with:
1. Application developed in Java and
2. Application Developed in other platform
Thanks and Regards,
Faisal

The most common ones might be;
- TCP sockets
- UDP datagrams.
- HTTP/webservices.
- JMS/Messaging
- FTP (not so common because its a often a bad idea)
- RMI/RPC/IIOP
- Distributed data solutions, like JGroups.
- Distributed JVM solutions, like Terracotta.
- Network relational databases, like MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, SQL Server.
- Directory services, e.g. LDAP servers.
- local/NFS/SAN/NAS/SMB file systems.
- Shared memory/Other shared resources like named pipes.
- serial communications (e.g. to a J2ME device)
There are probably a few more I've forgotten.

Creating Weblogic domain with Admin Server and managed servers on different

I am trying to create Weblogic domain where Admin Server and managed servers on different machines. However I am unable to find any steps which would allow me to do so. The config.sh script always creates an Admin Server. Please help.

Whilst the method that Lawrence gives can result in a domain that is perfectly functional, it is a method that can result in errors as you are having to enter the same information twice. Also you will create two admin servers, as the second domain creation will have the console added to it on the renamed admin server and this will give issues.
The best method to create a domain spamming multiple physical machines, is to create the domain with all the components on the first machine. This means planning the domain and making sure all components are added once; so having the information about the domain written out is wise. Ensure that the WLS software is installed in the same path on each machine before starting.
Then copy the domain that you have created from one machine to the other, keeping the same paths. You can simply copy (I've used this method multiple times without issue) but the supported way would be to use the WLST PACK and UNPACK methods. These create and extract domains from templates. Some more information on these is given here -> http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13179_01/common/docs100/pack/intro.html#wp1069056

Activating office 2010 pro plus with kms server

i installed an office 2010 pro plus kms client key on my client but
cscript OSPP.vbs /dsstatus shows this

why is it showing it is in grace period and not activated on the kms server?
I have already installed the kms server key following this

thanks

what does the client side need. Do they need a kms key? how do I check
on the KMSclient, and/or on the KMShost, to check, you can use:
cscript slmgr.vbs /dli all > c:\kmsout.txt
(this will output all possible Windows and Office licenses to the output file, and shows the status of each)
When you install Windows or Office by using VL media, by default these are pre-configured with KMSclient product key.
In case the machine may have been reconfigured with a different product key, and you find that you need to reconfigure back to a KMSclient product key, the Office KMSclient product keys are here:
