Linux Terminal Server Project package

I have packaged the binary scripts that the Linux Terminal Server Project puts out. I am starting to play around with the stuff...
8)
Maybe I can work some documentation out of it, as well as a couple of packages maybe...
Got a question though, since the LTSP-utils scripts basically install stuff for you (haven't tried it yet..we will see how it works)..is the preferred method to let that script do it, or should I work on packaging the files that the script installs for you?
I guess this is akin to packaging CPAN, and the choice between having packages for the CPAN modules, or letting CPAN do it. Except here there may actually be some services installed (tftpd, dhcpd, etc.).
Edit: Doh! Here is the link to the PKGBUILD..it is VERY simple..

SCCM App-V 5 packages to terminal server/Windows 7/Windows 10 design

Hi,
I would appreciate your input on a design question on App-V 5 on SCCM 2012 R2.
Where we are:
We have Terminal Servers running with App-V 4.6 Clients for some years. The users on these Terminal Servers could only receive the App-v 4.6 packages (since the terminal server only had the App-V client)
Some time ago we started the rollout of App-V 5.0 packages to Terminal servers via SCCM 2012 R2.
In parallel we rolled out some App-V 5.0 clients to Windows 7 machines.
What’s happening:
Users get App-V package meant for TS (licensed applications which should not end on clients) and they should not
What we want:
deploy App-V packages (via SCCM) to W7 computers only, later we will deploy to users but for now our administration system doesn’t cover that
select which App-V packages to deploy to Windows 10 (when it’s there)
select which App-V packages to deploy to terminal servers (WKX)
uninstall of users/computers not in collections anymore
ð
TTo achieve this we would create different deployment types of an App-v package with each a prereq “W7, Windows 10, Windows terminal services”. Then also we would create an uninstall mechanism (like this http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrdogs/archive/2014/11/03/managing-app-v-deployments-in-configmgr-2012.aspx)
Guess that would work, but wonder if you would see any flaws/issues
in/with this setup?
Thanks for your input.
J.
Jan Hoedt
Update: then also I wonder the supersedence within the application (with different deployment types), f.e. 7-Zip on terminal servers should be replaced but not for Windows 7. Would that work?

Uninstall is a bit of a concern too indeed.
What I would do is
f.e. 7-Zip Application-INSTALL, Deployment Types:
*W7-Install prereq W7
*WKX-Install prereq WK8R2, WK12R2
=> Deploy to Group "App-V-7-Zip", which has computers as well as user groups
7-Zip Application-UNINSTALL, Deployment Types:
*W7-Uninstall prereq W7
*WKX-Uninstall prereq WK8R2, WK12R2
=> Deploy to Group "App-V-UNINSTALL" which has all App-V groups (such as "App-V-7-Zip")
That's making sence, doesn't it?
Note: "It's probably a smart idea to not trigger an uninstall on a terminal server in every occasion." Why is that? Applications should be removed when f.e. groups are not part of the App-V-7-Zip.

Linux install server and solaris 10

Hi,
I am trying to learn Solaris as a student. I bought a SPARC (Netra T105 UltrasparcII) server on ebay which requires a network install as there is no cd-rom, or keyboard.
I only have a linux box (like I said, I'm a stingy student) to use as an install server, there is a few tutorials out there to try and do this, but none for Solaris 10. I have been hacking away at this for days, but cannot get it to install. I have the sparc server using RARP and then getting the /etc/bootparams file and downloading the boot files, but it does not get to locating the jumpstart files or the install files (I dont know if I can install from the terminal using the keyboard (without jumpstart) - I have not got that far yet).
I always get this, like it cannot find the install directory, I was wireshark on the linux boot server and see loads of NFS traffic after the TFTP download, but cannot seem to see what part it actually at. I have a detailed log at the bottom from putty. Any help greatly appreciated.Cheers

You do have the option of running VMware on linux, and putting a Solaris 10 image on it, then using that VM as your boot server. But the problem you're displaying doesn't appear to be related to the linux server.

Swing app in JDK6 continues to rendering slow in Windows Terminal Server

Hi,
Because Swing apps create interfaces internally and not using default OS APIs,
when running into a Windows Terminal Server client, there is no way to optimize
rendering. Windows Terminal Server and Linux FreeNX use a mechanism to send
to client only commands to render the windows. But, because the way Swing works,
not totally integrated to OS APIs, it's not possible for terminal servers to do this,
and these servers render Swing like images, something like VNC do, very slower than.
I have tested native apps and AWT apps, and the difference is very significant,
something like 50-70% faster.
Is there some project in Swing APIs or java.net open-sources to better this?

We are also seeing this issue with a Compiere implementation. With 10 distributed sites across the US, our client wanted to use Windows Terminal Services to simplify the client desktop management of the Swing application.
But performance is terrible...and screen painting issues a real problem. We are also on JDK5 still, so I'm discouraged to see that JDK6 doesn't appear to offer much improvement?
Is there any project afoot to address this issue for installations using terminal services?
Thanks,
Peter

Problem with Photoshop hangs/freezing for users on a terminal server

Dear Forum!
I'm having some trouble with Photoshop freezing over a period of ~20 minutes when you (1.) user the eraser with special brushes and (2.) copy and paste material from a PDF to Photoshop. As you might notice by the size of this post i'm getting quite depserate over here and need some help.
A Little background information...
Photoshop CS6 is installed on a terminal server with ~25 Active users where 3 of them are using Photoshop.
The operating system on the server is Windows Server 2012 R2.
There are no additional add-ons just a plain installation of Photoshop in that matter.
The server uses 40-60% of the memory most of the time (mostly a bit less, some times a bit more but never 100%) and 40% of the CPU.
There's enough space free on the disc.
The problem in detail...
There are two occasions where the freezing has occured most of the time. After it hangs for the first time, it will happen everytime you do any of the operations over a period of ~20 minutes and it's Mutual for all users. When it freezes, the whole terminal session freezes but the program i still responding (it's not getting set to "not responding") when viewed from Another user through the task manager. Ending the process as an administrator sometimes work, although from the moment i end he proces it takes about 10-60 seconds Before the program actually Closes and the user gets back Control. The easiest thing to do most of the time is if an administrator forces them to log out.
1. The first occasion is when you use the eraser with a brush that's not standard but manually added. The names of the brush packages used are:
Extacy__Elemental
KKC_Fractal
Kornkid's_Grunge_Set
and the problem is with all brushes inside those packages. The way i evoke the problem is the following:
     1. Start Photoshop
     2. Create new
     3. Fill the background with any color
     4. Select the eraser tool
     5. Change the brush to one of the ones mentioned above
     6. Program freezes
2. The second scenario when the problem occurs is when the users copy something from a PDF to Photoshop. The way i evoke this is:
     1. Open a PDF
     2. Select area and copy it
     3. Open Photoshop
     4. Create new
     5. Paste into Photoshop
     6. Program freezes
Solutions we have tried so far...
I've been working on this for several round now and i'm not entirely sure on what exactly i have done. I will try and do the following solutions once more but i'm pretty sure that i have tried most of them.
Update graphic card drivers.
Resetting all Tools:
     1. Select options for a tool
     2. choose "Reset all Tools"
Resetting presets:
     1. Hold ctrl + shift + alt while Photoshop is starting
     2. select "yes"
Tested if it matters if i have a pen connected or not, which it doesn't.
Removed the special brushes (but it still freezes when copy/paste from PDF)
Removed "save in background" and "automatically save recovery information" options
Updated to latest version.
Turned off OpenGL
Solutions i haven't, but will try...
Reinstall Photoshop
Change font preview size
     1. Go to "type"
     2. select "Font prview size"
     3. select "none"
Delete system font cache
Close all Adobe applications including the Creative Cloud desktop app (if installed).
Navigate to \Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\Appdata\Local
Delete the *FNTCACHE*.DAT or *FontCache*.dat files.
NOTE: The asterisk (*) indicates various numbers, letters, or words, such as FontCache-S-1-5-21.dat or COFFfntCache.dat.
Delete Photoshop font cache
Exit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app (if installed).
Navigate to the appropriate folder
Photoshop CS6 and earlier.
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe
Windows 7: \Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe
Photoshop CC and CC 2014
Windows 7 and 8: \Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC or CC 2014
     3. Delete the TypeSupport folder (Photoshop CS6 and earlier) or the CT Font Cache folder (Photoshop CC and CC 2014), and empty the trash.

Hi Mylenium!
Thanks for your reply but since the users work on the terminal server via remote dektop the only data sent through the network is a "Picture" of what is happening on the server. All the operations are handled on and by the server and nothing is executed on the users local machine. Also all files are stored on the server therefore the load on the network is minimum.
We are not the first in the World to run this setup and i know that this is possible to do since i've read about others running PS like this.
Kind Regards,

Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Server and Outlook 2013 Profile

Really hoping someone can offer some advice on this one as I have wasted far to many cycles trying to figure this out.
Company I work for recent purchased another company and we are in the process of bringing them into our network. They currently run a a 2008 R2 terminal server where all users connect to for there day to day work. A number of applications
are installed including Office 2013.
All users have Outlook 2013 configured to access their exchange server for email and this works fine.
The first step in bringing them into our fold is to add an email account for Our Exchange server without removing their existing exchange configuration or Outlook Profile. So the one profile will have both exchange accounts listed and they can
continue to get email from their server but as well email from our domain.
I created a MSP file and tested pushing this out using PDQ Deploy to a few workstations here in our office and it works fine. I then started to work on deploying in their environment. PDQ Deploy will not work as they are all terminal Services
Clients. So I tried to push out via GPO. I created the GPO Initially wanting to use a package and apply that GPO to an AD group. However it will not let me deploy a MST as a package. So I then tried moving it to a script that would
run at logon. That too is not working.
I know I could enter install mode then run the MSIEXEC.EXE \config.MSP but that takes away the ability to control the role out.
Any other ideas on how to get this done.

App-v 5.0 on terminal servers: move package root via powershell?

Hi,
I'd need to move the packageroot of app-v 5 packages of a terminal server to another drive. However, packages are in use, how can I do everything in one go making sure I can do this in one go?
1.stop or unpublish packages, I can unpublish but that's package by package, wouldn't it be easier to force a stop?
2.move the package root Set-AppvClientConfiguration
-PackageInstallationRoot %programdata%\App-V
Or can I just do that in one go and move the packageroot so only new package are going there and package when reloaded will go to the new location?
Pls advise.
J.
Jan Hoedt

That would be nice for new installation. For current installs I'm not sure if it would work. I'd like to manually test before implementing it generally.
I found out that when I use Set-AppvClientConfiguration
-PackageInstallationRoot %programdata%\App-V new packages are set to the new location. However existing packages, how can I move them?

How to Print to Linux Terminal

Would anyone happen to know how to create a VI that prints to Linux Terminal. I wish to make a test VI that verifies the RTE is working on a Linux Server and no more dependencies/Libraries are necessary. Going to be pretty simple. Just a VI that, when ran, will write "Hello World" to terminal then close. All of that is pretty easy of course. I just don't know how to print to Terminal.
Remember, code does exactly what you tell it.

I don't have a linux system to test on, but it seems like you could modify this comunity code sample to do what you're looking to do. Have a look: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-40941

Office 2007 + Custom template (dot/dotm files) on terminal server -- issues

We are trying to transition to a terminal server + thin-client setup.
The TS runs Server 2008 R2, and the Office version is 2007 (for compatibility reasons -- we have a lot of macros etc that won't run with Office 2010).
The normal.dotm for Office, Excel & Word are customised in order to insert custom macros, font styling etc. A batch file runs on logon, copying the custom normal.dotm files from a network share to the local computer's C: drive in a folder called "Templates".
So it'd copy the data from "\\SERVER1\share\normal.dotm" to "C:\templates\" on the machine.
Then, a GPO would re-direct the location for the normal.dotm file from the default location to the new location (i.e. C:\Templates\) from above. This allowed updating of custom macros etc to all computers on the net. It was messy, but it worked.
Now that we're wanting to transition to terminal server, we're having an issue where the script still works, however when closing Outlook / Excel / Word, users are receiving a message stating "The file normal.dotm is in use".
I'm guessing what's happening is, the first person to log on to the Terminal Server and launch their instance of Outlook/Word/Excel is getting an exclusive handle to this file; And subsequently launched instances get this error.
There is nothing _wrong_ with the system per se -- everything works, however every time an Office app is closed, the user gets the annoying message.
What is the correct solution to this? Is there a cleaner way to deploy macros/styling settings rather than modifying normal.dotm? Another solution I can think of is to create a copy of the templates/normal.dotm for every single user in their %AppData% folder
and tell Office to use the %AppData% copy -- but this would mean as many copies of the templates as there are users which doesn't seem like a very clean solution.
I'm open to suggestions and insights on the cleanest and most efficient way to solve this problem.

Hi
update to this issue from my side:
We opened a Support call for this issue and got it solved.
The SQL script to recreate a fresh Enterprise Global (eglobal.SQL) does not exist for Project Server 2013 currently. But the support created one for us. So if someone has this issue, contact Microsoft Support, they will provide you the script.

We are running a software package on a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Server called TAM (The Agency Manager) along with Outlook 2010. The application uses a MAPI connection to retrieve mail data from Outlook to be able to send and receive messages inside
the application. On our individual PC's this works just fine, but on the Terminal Server users we get the message "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook
and set it as the default mail client."
I've tried the steps listed in KB 813745 which tells you to delete the registry keys and run a repair in Office, but that didn't resolve the issue. I've searched on this issue, but haven't found anything useful. Any suggestions would be much
appreciated.

Try to set DEP and add outlook.exe. I had outlook 2007 same problem. With DEP enabled and outlook, word en excel also added to the list it worked again.
You can find it under this computer, properties, then change settings. Click advanced tab and then select the first "settings" option.The click the "Data Execution Prevention" (DEP) and select the last option and add the office programs
there.
Hope this helps.

How to install Oracle 10g on to Red Hat Linux 5 Server

I'm new to both Linux and Oracle. I've been working on an installion of Oracle 10g on a Red Hat Linux 5 Server for about 2 weeks. I've been doing a lot of reading about installing Oracle on a Linux environment. I finally got to the installation portion and the Oracle Installer displayed a message that I had to have Red Hat 4 or 4 Enterprise to continue.
How can Install Oracle 10g onto a Red Hat 5 Linux Server"? Is there an option that I can use to bypass the OS checking?
Thanks

Unfortunately there is no way to access metalink without a valid account. You could then just try to skip preinstall requisites with this clause:
./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
or this method:
Copy the oraparam.ini from the installation source install/oraparam.ini to /tmp directory.
Edit the file /tmp/oraparam.ini so this file reads:
After
[Certified Versions]
Linux=redhat-3,SuSE-9,redhat-4,UnitedLinux-1.0,asianux-1,asianux-2,redhat-5
also, make sure you have these packages installed:
# rpm -ivh gcc-c++-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm gcc-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm
libstdc++-devel-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm glibc-devel-2.5-12.i386.rpm
glibc-headers-2.5-12.i386.rpm libgomp-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm

Windows 2003 Terminal Server, ZEN 7, and WSUS

Hi,
We're having a problem getting a group policy to "Stick" in Windows 2003
terminal server. The server(s) have the ZEN 7.01 agent installed per
the TID's for a terminal server. We believe we've set all the Group
Policies of the users that login to these systems, yet once they are
rebooted, the WSUS update server location resets to the default
(update.microsoft.com). This is set in gpedit in:
\computer configuration\administrative templates\Windows
Components\Windows Update
Is this settable in a user package, or should this be done in a
workstation package? If so, could we "force" the workstation package to
override the Windows Update settings for all users, regardless of what
user policy package they have?
Thanks for any ideas!
Greg

In the Properties of the WS Group Policy, there is an option to set "Loop
Back" so that the Computer GPO is set last.

I installed Oracle database 10g on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 edition.

I installed Oracle database 10g on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 edition.
But this massage pop up when I used my browser first time before start database.
Actually when I clicks on yes to start database.
The web browser you are using is not optimized for this release of Oracle enterprise manager. It is recommended that you use one of the following:
* Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5, 6.0 or higher
* Netscape Navigator version 7 and higher
*Mozilla version 1.3.1 and higher
Dose any one know hoe to upgrade mozilla or install internet explorer 5.5, 6.0 or higher or SLES 8.
Regards,
D

You can download package for your distribution (for example) from http://www.mozilla.org or directly from SuSE ftp server ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/suse/i586
IE for linux does not exist.

Terminal Server performance issue

Hi,
We have Acrobat Pro 11.0.07 on a Terminal Serveur ( windows server 2008 R2 standard) and got performance issue when we use acrobat. Acrobat use a complete core and this is slowing our server. Is there an other version of Acrobat to use or patch to fix that issue ?

Hi Sean,
"Equally annoying. When I remove the printer in question, it re-adds itself and I end up with multiple copies of the same printer. Is there anyway to stop this from happening?"
Did you try to login this terminal server locally ?

Setup FB for PHP 4.5.1 to work with linux zend server ce edition

Hi,
I'm new to FB and hope that someone can help me.
Using some tutorials I've found I have installed Zend Server CE on my windows pc and created a project which accesses a database. This is all working as I would expect in that I can introspect the services and everything works.
As the next phase in my learning I am now trying to move the Zend Server CE onto a seperate RedHat linux server so that the services are not bound to my pc which has a dynamic ip address.
I used the yum repository to install the zend server ce with php 5.3 support and this all went as expected.
I've created a new remote project using SSH to access the remote server. When I did this i noticed that the "public" folder and the amf_config.ini and gateway.php files are not automatically created as they were when I used my local pc.
Also when I create a php service and right click on it the "create php service for flex" option is not available.
I was hoping that everything would remain the same as when I used the locally installed zend server ce but it seems there is more configuration required and I'm not able to find any current tutorials which cover how to get this working from both the zend server ce side as well as the local flash builder for php settings that need to be set for the project.
Can someone point me to a tutorial on how to get flash builder for php working with a remote linux copy of zend server?
There are plenty of tutorials which cover how to do this if you install zend server locally with FB and use localhost and a local webroot....
Any help would be greatly appreciated... If I work out the steps to do this I would be more than happy to do up a youtube video of the process to help other new users.
Thanks
Steve

What I would like to do is this.
In Flash Builder 4.5.1 for PHP I want to create a "Flex and PHP Project"
I want the PHP project to use the Zend server that I have configured on my linux server 192.168.214.212 ip address.
In the flash builder for php, php project I want to be able to create new functions and classes and then as I do this have them uploaded to the linux zend server via ssh.
I also want to be able to "Introspect" the services and have them create the Value Objects in my flex project.
Then when I debug or launch the project I want it to use the services on the linux server.
If you have zend server installed on the same windows pc (localhost) as flash builder for php all of this works automatically, it creates a public folder and also generates the gateway.php file automatically and everything works with out any manual configuration.
The problem I have is that I cant figure out how to change it so that it uses the linux server and I know it's not as easy as just changing the ipaddress of the server and uploading the files to the linux server webroot as I've already tried this and it doesn't work.
I can ping the linux server and access the zend server admin page.
I can get the flash builder php project connected to the server filesystem (via ssh) and have it upload the php as I change them.
The two things that are not working are Introspect and also the gateway.php and amf_config.ini files are not working.
