*.local addresses seem to be stuck (cached?)

when registering new virtual hosts under apache with *.local addresses they are not resolving, and old addresses that i've removed still resolve. it's as if mDNS is stuck or caching the names. this persists through a reboot. please help me diagnose and resolve this issue. thanks.

addendum: i recently added a wifi printer (lexmark) to my network. is it possible the presence of this device on the network, or some driver/server i installed on my laptop to talk to the printer, is the cause of the apparent mDNS issues of old *.local addresses not disappearing and new ones not resolving? if so, how might i test that? thanks again.

I can't answer why you are not able to connect to WiFi but I can tell you to try the basic things, turn WiFi off and on again, restart your iPad, reset network settings, reboot your router, forget your WiFi network and try again .....
The issue with the email is probably a password issue. Make sure that your password is entered in the incoming mail server setting and in the outgoing mail server setting as well. The outgoing server setting can be accessed by tapping on the SMTP under the Outgoing Mail Server Setting and then tapping the smtp.comcast.net in the next window under the Primary Server Setting.
The outgoing mail server setting will be in the first window when you tap on the Comcast account in the Mail settings.
Look here for a few different web sites for help with the WiFi.

How to extract email address from Outlook friendly name cache

Hi guys,
A while ago, somebody wrote a little VBA utility to help us to log CRM events. Whenever a user sends an email to a customer, it logs the fact in our CRM database. This is the programmatic process:
1. Grab the email address from ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.To
2. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
3. If not a valid email address (it must be a friendly name, perhaps located in Exchange), look for the address in:
ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetExchangeUser.PrimarySmtpAddress
4. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
5. If not a valid email address (it must be in the user's Contact list), look for the address in:
ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetContact.Email1Address
6. If it's a valid email address, all well and good. Proceed to Step 8.
7. If not a valid email address, then crash!!! <<------------------------------------------------- Here's where I'm stuck!
8. Get the CustomerID from the CRM, based on email address.
9. Do a bunch of other stuff (for example, send the email, and log the event in the CRM).
I'm a former Access MVP, and am highly experienced with VBA, but my forte is clearly not Outlook. What I'd like to do is find the email address by looking in the local cache, and make sure I get the actual email address rather than the friendly name.
I'm not sure if 'local cache' is the right word; I know Outlook stores frequently used email address in some sort of cache, even if the user has not explicitly stored it as a Contact. I just don't know how to find it. Can anyone point me in the right
direction, maybe with a method name?
Also, while mucking about with it, I found the following. Would it be useful in this scenario?
ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Recipients.Item(1).AddressEntry.GetExchangeDistributionList
Many thanks,
Graham R Seach

Hi Graham,
This might help you to figure things out a bit.
The contact cache you are looking for is called the nickname cache, also known as the "autocomplete stream."
The nickname files (.nk2) used by older versions of Outlook (2007 and below).
Outlook 2010 and 2013 does not use the NK2 file; it stores the autocomplete cache in the mailbox or data file and caches the addresses in an autocomplete stream at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\RoamCache. The cache is stored in a file
named Stream_Autocomplete_0_[long GUID].dat.
For applications that interact with Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013, the autocomplete stream is stored as a MAPI property and can be modified using the MAPI or the
PropertyAccessor object of the message. The PropertyAccessor object is exposed in the Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013 object models.
Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013 reads the autocomplete stream from a message in the Associated Contents table of the Inbox of the mail account’s delivery store. This hidden message has a message class and subject of IPM.Configuration.Autocomplete. The autocomplete
stream is stored on this message in the PR_ROAMING_BINARYSTREAM property (PidTagRoamingBinary Canonical Property).

Bug: DatagramChannel bind/connect local address

What are the chances of getting bug 6431343 fixed in JRockit?
Basically, I need to be able to send a message from a specific local UDP port, and I also need to know the local address that the message will originate from.
So when I bind using
channel.socket().bind(new InetSocketAddress(9999));
and then connect to the remote address
channel.connect(new InetSocketAddress("localhost", 0));
Then DatagramChannel should report the local address that any messages will originate from when I call
channel2.socket().getLocalSocketAddress();
but it instead seems to return a cached copy of the wildcard address as the local address.
However, the behavior IS correct in a plain DatagramSocket.
Here's a link to the bug:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6431343
Thanks very much for your attention.

As you have assumed, we use Sun's networking code and therefore inherit their bugs. All bugs that Sun fix are fixed in the JRockit version with the same JDK level (i.e. Sun 5.0u8 -> JR 5.0u8).
However, if you have a support contract with BEA (for JRockit, WebLogic etc) then you can open a ticket with BEA Support. The issue will be investigated, and if it is critical and no good workaround can be found then you will be provided with a patch.

GWIA doing DNS lookup for local address

Hello,
I am running GW8.0.2 on Netware 6.5sp8. I have a server that our recreation department uses to send out confirmation emails when a customer signs up for a class. The recreation server and the GWIA are on the same subnet.
Here's the problem: When the Rec server sends out the first email confirmation, it gets sent out successfully. Subsequent emails after that fail. After about twenty minutes the next email will go out OK again but subsequent emails will fail.
The verbose logs on the GWIA don't tell me much but the diagnostic logs show what looks like a reverse DNS lookup happening at the GWIA for my local IP address of 10.0.0.3 (the Rec server). This reverse DNS lookup fails (probably a timeout) and subsequent emails from this local Rec server get dropped by the GWIA without the DNS lookup.
DNS is being done by DNS proxy on Bordermanager 9.2. I've bypassed the Bordermanager DNS and the same thing happens. I've made entries for the local Rec server into a route.cfg file but the GWIA seems to want to ignore these entries and keeps doing the DNS lookup.
The wierdest part of the puzzle is that if I restart the proxy on the Bordermanager the next email will go out with, of course, subsequent emails failing. I've looked at the proxy dns cache and can't even find an entry for my Rec server.
Attached are the entries from the Diagnostic logs of the GWIA. Novell tech support has assured me that the GWIA and the BM are working fine. I am also having this problem with a scanner that scans then emails but all other email and Bordermanager are functioning fine. This server and scanner were not having this problem before upgrading to GW8.0.2.
I don't understand why GWIA is doing DNS lookups for a local address and I don't know what I can do to stop it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is a successful transfer right after restarting the proxy: 10.0.0.3 is the Rec server, 10.0.0.130 is the GWIA and 10.0.0.1 is the Bordermanager.

Thanks Massimo. I could have swore I already did that but when I did it again just to make sure it solved the problem. Appreciate the help. Have a good one.

The reverse DNS done by GWIA is normal, and can't be stopped or tricked.
That it fails in such odd ways must be a bug with the reverse DNS proxy
of Bordermanager though. Apparently on the second lookups, it doesn't
answer in a timely manner (the type of answer is irrelevant, just it
*has* to answer). Use a different, "real" DNS server for your GWIA.

Remote Desktop "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" no longer working in Windows 8

Hi,
After installing windows 8, it seems like the "Bypass RD gateway server for local addresses" is no longer working.
In Windows 7, when the option is checked, I could have the server name set always and the client will automatically detect whether to use the RD gateway or not. For example, from my house, if I am connecting to a computer at my work, which requires
the RD gateway, it will automatically pops up the dialog for authentication method. However, if I connect to a computer in my home network, it will just automatically connects without asking authentication for the RD gateway.
However, after installing windows 8, this does not seem to work as expected anymore. The option is checked but the Windows Security dialog pops up in both situations and so i have to either save the rdp file locally and pin it to the taskbar or switch between
disabling and enabling the RD gateway whenever I need to connect to different machines.
Is this a regression in Windows 8? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
Thanks

Another way to resolve this issue for me, beside of configuring RDP to connect directly to server also on unmanaged network, will be to turn the "wifi" subnet in a managed network, as the "wired" subnet is.
The differences between thoses to subnets, dynamically assigned by the same DHCP server, are:
The "wifi" is in a private IP range, the "wired" is in a public IP range
There's an ACL on the "wifi" subnet, not on the "wired"
The next step is to compare frames send/received when on the two networks. Something will likely tell for the network to be managed.
Beside, I'm still searching informations about NLA, which is responsible for setting a nework as managed or not.
Here are some clues:

Bind Local Address Book to Server?

A priority for our firm, and a main reason we are setting ups an SLS, is to be able to use Group Address Books to share contacts across the Groups we would like to set up. The documentation says this is possible, but as I see in other posts, this doesn't actually appear to have been implemented yet. Has anyone noticed Page 11 of the Address Book Server Administration Manual, posted at Apple's SLS documentation page:
"To use Address Book Server on a client, you need to bind the client to Address Book Server. Before binding a client computer, make sure Address Book Server is running (see “Starting or Stopping Address Book Server” on page 15).
To bind Address Book on a client to Address Book Server:
1 Open Address Book on the client computer.
The only versions of the Address Book application that support using Address Book
Server are those in Mac OS X version 10.6. Earlier versions of Address Book don’t
support binding to Address Book Server.
2 Choose Address Book > Preferences, and then click Accounts.
3 Click the Add button.
4 In the Add Account dialog, select Mac OS X Server as the Account Type.
5 Enter the user’s name and password. Enter the URL of the Address Book Server.
6 Click Create.
An account is now added to the account list. The Address Book application now shows a new group with the user’s name and your server designated. Any groups in the shared address book are displayed below this via a disclosure triangle."
All of this sounds great: once "bound" to the server, manual appears to be saying that the local Address Book app will show the user's address book as well as any Group the user is a part of. Perfect. Only problem is that when I go to create an Address Book account with the type "Mac OS X Server", there is no such option under the pull down account type menu.
I have all the latest versions of everything on the server as well as client computers, and this option simply isn't there. Address Book Server is running, and there are no configuration choices that would appear to "turn on" this option or otherwise make it available to the client computers. Anybody have an explanation? Has Apple just not implemented this yet? If not, why Apple would put this in their current documentation? Am I missing a configuration setting of some type?

Hi
Unfortunately for you the admin manuals are not that clear - what a surprise. It's not really your fault but you're taking the instructions too literally. By "Address Book Server" the manual means the Server the Address Book Service is running on. This would be whichever server is the Open Directory Master.
Preceeding the part you quoted is:
+"Address Book Server is integrated with Mac OS X Server’s foundation technologies. Address Book users are authenticated from Open Directory and Kerberos."+
This certainly implies an OD Master environment.
In a multiple server environment (Master/Replica or Connected Server) it's not clear if the Service can only be used/accessed on the OD Master.
To 'bind/join' clients to an OD Master (and in essence the Address Book Server) you use Directory Utility. In 10.6 client this is accessed via the Accounts tab. In 10.5 the application exists as standalone in the Utilities folder. In 10.4 the application is in the same place but is known as Directory Access. As far as the manual says only Address Book in 10.6 seems to be supported?
For LDAP Services to work as they should DNS Services must be configured correctly and resolving on both pointers. For the best experience clients must be using the Server for their DNS (assuming the Server is the only Server on the network) or a suitable DNS Server that can resolve the Server properly.
I personally don't think there is a Group Address Book feature available. If the iCal service is anything to go by you're really talking about individual address books which have then been delegated read/write access to other users in the LDAP node. If you consider carefully what it is you want there is no reason why you can't offer a 'group-type' address book with what's available?

SG300 cant change the Link Local address for an IPv6 interface

There seems to be no apparent way to change the Link Local address for an IPv6 interface
If I create more than one interface they all appear to have the same Link Local address

Never mind, I figured it out
By adding a Link Local address to an interface, it overides the existing one on the interface

Load Balacing on VPN3000 with non-local address pools

Is it possible to load balance when the VPN3000 does not have an interface in the address pools, i.e. using "non-local" address pools as the documentation puts it? I know this works without clustering by setting static routes to the pool on the nearest router. But in a clustering setup it seems to me there is no way to assign a static route since there is no way to pre-determine which cluster member the client will connect to (an additional virtual address on the private network would solve this but I suppose it's too late to hope for new features!)

Seeking clarification in IPv6 Link & Site local addresses please

Hi All
Just wondering if anybody with IPv6 knowledge can put me straight. I am currently studying for my CCNP (BSCI) and am just going over the IPv6 stuff again.
Now I understand that for the CCNP I will likely just need to know the basic theory of IPv6, however I cannot get my head around the Link-Local and Site-Local addresses.
Routing TCP/IP Vol 1 (Jeff Doyle) 2nd edition, page 54, has a table showing the high order bits of various IPv6 addresses and lists the following.
Link-Local = 1111 1110 10 which equates to FE80::/10
Site-Local = 1111 1110 11 which equates to FEC0::/10
Now the part I can not get my head around is this.
The first 10 high order bits equate to 2 1/2 (10 bits) nibbles, but for the Link-Local address to be FE80 would require 4 nibbles (16 bits) or
1111 1110 1000 0000. Like wise with the Site-Local address of FEC0 which would be 1111 1110 1100 0000. This would mean that the prefix should be /16 if remaining 6 bits can not be turned on.
So I am trying to understand what happens to the remaining 6 bits in these Local IPv6 addresses or to the IPv6 addresses from FE81 to FEBF and from FEC1 to FECF? Are they just ignored?
If so it would appear that nothing was learned from what happened with the initial wasteful assignment of IPv4 addresses!!
Can anybody put me out of my misery please :)
Best Regards,
Michael

Hi Narayan
Thank you for your post and the information contained within.
When I went through IPv6 initially for my CCNP (BSCI) studies I understood that as the Link-Local and Site-Local addresses had a prefix of /10. I thought that once I kept the initial 10 bits of the address as specified in the RFC, I could change any and all of the other 118 bits in the address.
However my study material (which now also includes "Routing TCP/IP Vol 1&2, by Jeff Doyle) also states that Link-Local addresses will always start with "FE80" and Site-Local addresses will always start with "FEC0". This accounts for the first 16 bits, which to me (as just a CCNA with knowledge of IPv4 only) meant that the Link-Local and Site-Local addresses should actually have a prefix of /16.
After further investigation into IPv6 I am further confused as it appears that the Link and Site local addresses are derived by using the 48 bit MAC address of an interface, injecting "FFFE" between the OUI portion and the local portion and then inverting the 7th bit to reach the modified EUI-64 identifier.
This in turn means that the Link and Site Local addresses would have a prefix of /64, as the actual addresses would start off with
FE80:0000:0000:0000: or FE80::
FEC0:0000:0000:0000: or FEC0::.
Also while searching the web for more information I came across this site
http://www.tcpipguide.com/free/t_IPv6SpecialAddressesReservedPrivateLinkLocalSiteLo-3.htm
which suggests as you mentioned above that all addresses between FE80:: and FEBF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF can be Link-Local addresses and that all addresses between FEC0:: and FEFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF can be Site-Local addresses.
I then read through RFC3513 (IPv6 Addressing Architecture) http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3513.html and can find no mention of these "ranges" for the Link-Local and Site-Local addresses. It seems to suggest in section 2.5.6 (and I am no expert at reading and understanding RFC's) the the Link-Local address has the first 10 bits of "1111111010" the next 54 bits set to "0" and the final 64 bits are the interface ID (modified EUI-64 ID). Again to me this suggests that the prefix should be /64
However with the Site-Local address the first 10 bits are "1111111011" the next 54 bits are the "Subnet ID" and the final 64 bits are the interface ID (Modified EUI-64 ID) which again suggests to me a prefix of /64, but also that I can manipulate the middle 54 bits.
I think the more I try to understand this the more I confuse myself. I know this is probably gone way outside what I am expected to know for my BSCI exam, but I just like to understand how things that I read in my studies are arrived at. I don't like just taking things on blind faith :)
However I think after reading the RFC that I am also getting to hung up on the fact that the texts I am reading use a /10 prefix for these addresses. I understand the the Link-Local addresses are like the addresses Microsoft OS's use when they cannot get a DHCP addresses (169.254/16) and that Site-Local addresses are equivalent to RFC1918 private addresses.
Therefore I can except that the Link-local addresses will always start FE80:0000:0000:0000: and I am assuming that the lowest Site-Local address will start with FEC0:0000:0000:0000 but can be anything up to FEFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF, which will define the subnet.
Sorry for such a long post, but I see now why network administrators are not rushing to implement IPv6 :) I think it will take time to get my head around this.
Again thank you for your input.
Best Regards and Best Wishes for the 2008 and beyond,

Order online seems to be stuck "preparing order"

Processing should only take one day, but with my purchase (CyberPowerPCGamer Xtreme Desktop Intel Core i3 8GB Memory 500GB Hard DriveGXI3600B) I'm very excited to get this computer as it's a major upgrade for gaming, but it seems to be stuck somewhere and unable to be shipped.
I recently ordered a video card to the same address and it processed in one day just fine, so I'm wondering what the problem could be
Solved!

Hello Daraous-
Welcome to the Best Buy Forums!
I just recently purchased a computer from Best Buy myself and I know how excited I was waiting for it to process and ship.
These particular computers actually come directly from the vendor, so there generally is a longer processing time while we send them the order and they confirm they can fulfill it. Unfortunately, because you requested it be cancelled, that request has been sent to the vendor and we would not be able to change it back at this point.
If you are interested in re-ordering this computer, you would have to place a new order. Please be advised that it may take some extra time to process your order because it is coming directly from the vendor. Usually your order confirmation will list the estimated delivery date.
I apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause you.
Sincerely,
Bill|Senior Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

What does the local-address element stand for here?

Please se the following Coherence Extend Proxy Configuration file:
What does the <local-address> element stand for? Does it define that only the local clients (local with server proxy) can be accepted?
<local-address>
    <address>localhost</address>
    <port>9099</port>
</local-address>

I think you not got the real meaning here.
<local-address> element is used to specify a local address (IP or DNS name) and port that the TCP/IP ServerSocket (opened by the connection acceptor) will listen on. It's not a filter used to confine the client IP address.
For example, the following will instruct the connection acceptor to bind the TCP/IP ServerSocket to 192.168.0.2:9099:
<local-address>
<address>192.168.0.2</address>
<port>9099</port>
<reusable>true</reusable>
</local-address>

*.local addresses seem to be stuck (cached?)
