Longtime Sat. internet user's compromise and point of view....

Finally gave up my Hughesnet now that I can get a good 3G signal in my remote location. Yes it is and always will be my decision to live in the country. So I know my options are limited. But in the couple of weeks I've had Verizon, it has been wonderful. It is faster, cheaper, and just more functional than Hughesnet ever was or will be. I have been a Verizon customer for more years than I can remember as a cell phone user. And I think they have some of the best customer service available. Just because you don't get the answer you want, doesn't mean it was poor service. And you can understand them. Now, having said that, I hate data caps. But having suffered with hugesnet for years and their 200MB/day limit, my browsing habits can handle the 5GB/m pretty easily. But having found the increased functionality of this network,(ie. online Uncharted 2). I fear that I may approach that 5GB sooner than I think. I propose a compromise. The one redeeming thing that hughesnet had was an open download time from 1AM to 6AM. You were free to download whatever you need. This was the perfect time for software updates, program downloads, etc. I would love to see Verizon offer this option. I don't imagine the networks are to busy during this timeframe, so there shouldn't be to much of a strain on the system. I am also sure that the vast majority of the users don't use this network as their primary service anyway. So what do you think?

It wasn't a negative comment. You stated that you hated the 200mb per day limit on your old provider, and expressed relief at the 5gb per month cap on Verizon. That sounded like you thought you were getting more bandwidth. Not everyone understands mb vs. gb and how to convert between them (portable hard drive manufacturers certainly don't seem to)
BTW, Captain Calculator - not so much witty as snarky. But I can see how I may have come off poorly, so I apologize. It wasn't my intention.
You suggestion would be nice, but don't expect to see it anytime soon. In fact, expect to see it go in the other direction - tiered data, wherein users will pay more for the same amount they use now. ATT has already gone that route, and Verizon is already stating their intention to go that way. this as their cost to deliver drops with LTE.
Data is the new cash cow for wireless providers, and they've already gotten away with requiring it on certain devices, whether you need/want it or not, and regardless of if you brought your own device to their network purchased at full price elsewhere. We've won a small battle fighting this, when VZW announced they won't be requiring data on anything but smartphones from her on out, but we've yet to see what sort of devices will fill this void.

Drop down list for User ID's and SAP List viewer format

Couple of quick questions. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Give each ship-to-party an internet user

We have set up the Web shop for our customer using CRM Internet sales.
Some of our customers have different ship-to parties,and we want give each ship-to-party an Internet User so that he can process order in the B2B shop.
For example,Customer 11000001 has two ship-to-party named 19000001 and 19000002.We want give 1900001 and 1900002 Internet users named C1900001 and C1900002.when C1900001 logon and order some materials,the sold-to-party should be 11000001 and the ship-to-party should be 19000001.and he can not change the ship-to-party.
How to do this?

I suppose you can set this up in the partner determination of the transaction type.
If not, you should be able to program the logic yourself in a CRM Badi.

User showing locked in SU01 but not in BP-Internet User and vice versa

Hello,
Why is it when when a user is locked in their CRM SU01 it won't show that that same user is locked on their BP-Internet User Tab and vice versa. We are eexperiencing issues where our web users are getting locked out. Are support team only has access to the web users BP-Internet User tab. When the suport team goes to unlock the user the lock check box is not checked in the BP. But when you go to the SU01 the account is showing as locked and vice versa, we're seeing the BP lock box checked but on the SU01 it says the account isn't locked. Isn't the BP-Internet User tab reading off of the SU01 account?
Thank You very much,
Alex

Hi,
From your question, I infer that the BP and CRM are using multiple User Management Engines (UMEs). If you have a centralized UME, you should not experience this issue. Please post back with complete details.

I can not sign into FaceTime and my firewall is turned off, help. I'm a Clear internet user, if that matters or helps.

I'm having trouble signing into facetime. Keeps saying to check my network, but the internet is fine and my firewall is turned off. I'm a Clear internet user and I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not.

there has been a big problem with facetime and imessage. The best solution for this case is to restore your device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Make sure you back it up. and I would set up facetime before you reinstall your backup and make sure its working.

Relation between Shop id and Internet User in CRM

Hi Guru's,
We are using SAP CRM 4.0. Can you please let me know in SAP CRM backend how can i find the shop id from the Internet User. We have created a BSP application and hosted in Portal. In the BSP application we want to determine the sales area from shop id. I can see shop id stored in database table 'CRMM_ISA_SHOP_H' and function module 'CRM_ISAI_SALES_AREA_GET' to get the sales area from the shop id. But i am not able to determine the shop id from the logged in Internet User. Can you help?
Regards,
Priyank

In your scenario, there is no relation between the Internet User and the Shop Id.
In the web (ISA), Shop ID is determined as follows:
1. It is either given as a parameter in the URL so that the user doesn't have to select it or
2. If there is only one Shop, then there is no need. The application defaults to that. or
3. If there are more shops,then the user is presented with a screen to make the selection.
You will have access to the Shop ID within the ISA Java-ABAP framework, but not in an independent BSP application such as yours. You have to make the user select the shop if there are multiple web shops.

'Role' 'User' 'Business Partner' and 'Internet User'
Kindly help me undertand the relation between the above mentioned IDs and there creation
2)
I have created Business Partner(External Person) ID using BP(txn)...Kindly let me know how to create the 'Internet ID' and 'PW'
So that I can use it for HRRCF_StART_EXT (BSP)
kindly explian...or mail me any documention related to
E-recruitment to my id [email protected]
Looking for a immediate reply
Regards,
Raghav

Role - is the same as the concept of role in R3. SAP Delivers some pre confogured authorisation profiles for some standard roles.
Roles are assigned to user depending on the client's requirement.
Business Partner is the same as BP in CRM. basically, the following will be BPs in ur system:
Each independent user of the recruitment process - as BP Branch.
All third party recruitment vendors as BP Type Agency.
All employees will also be BP in the system.
All external applicants.
You can create internet user using the t code SU05. You can also use the R3 sytem user credentials to log on to the url application by configuring the system to use the SAP login. (this is done thru t code SICF)
Hope this helps.

No Internet for 63 hours and counting

I live in Finchampstead, Wokingham. It’s an area of Wokingham not far from Reading & Bracknell where a lot of the Major IT companies of the world have an Office.
I bring this up in case you think my house is halfway up a mountain or where the nearest neighbour is 5 miles away.
I can comfortably state that we have not had an internet connection up for more than a week in the last 5 years, except for about 6 months 2 years ago. Granted most of the time I leave it a couple of hours and it does come back but I have never seen the router display more than 7 days connection in a row.
BT as a company is fine, when there are problems that people know about then they are answered quickly and without fuss, however when you get a problem that does not fit the carefully worded script that the BT Internet front line support people in India HAVE to follow then we have a major breakdown and BT falls apart.
My latest communication with BT ran as follows:
Friday (7th December @ 17:25) the Broadband link light went out, it then went through the following sequence:
Light out
Light blinking orange
Light blinking blue
Light Solid blue
15 seconds pass (just enough time to get connected back again)
Light goes out
The sequence repeats
I rang the BT Internet help line and after waiting for 45 minutes was told that all their computers were down and could I call back on Saturday.
Saturday (8th December @ 08:00) Called BT Internet helpline again
After 52 minutes got connected and ran through the script.
Change filter (I have bought 44 new filters now over the years)
Plug telephone cable into master socket (it goes down so often it is always plugged into the master socket)
Reset the router
The BT front line person then runs a line test and calls me back after 4 minutes-approx. 9:10.
“Yes they can see a fault on the line I will escalate it to Network support”
I am then told that BT Network support team are so busy that I can’t get a call until 9PM Sunday night! What!!!!!!!
I have, however, learnt a long time ago that if that’s the time then that’s the time and there is no point in arguing, the poor front support staff just repeat the same thing over and over until you accept it, trying to argue with then would be like trying to have an argument with my dog, pointless, so it is accepted and they say if the situation changes to call back.
I ring back on Saturday evening @ (8th December @ 6:30PM) as now the broadband light has gone out altogether. After a 40 minute wait I am told that the network support team has gone home but they would pass the message on.
Sunday (9th December - Morning) as I can’t do my Christmas shopping on the internet I have to go out Christmas Shopping.
When I get home we have a message that BT Network Support has telephoned but we were out, and they would call back in the evening.
Sunday (9th December – afternoon) go out again, this time get back by 7:30PM.
Another message has been left to say that Network Support has called, and as we are not in they assume that the connection is OK.
I call back at 8PM and after going through the script again for 10 minutes I am told that I need to speak to the second line Network Support, they would put me through.
Am on hold for 45 minutes before getting cut off
I ring back but am told that the Second Line network support team had closed at 8:30PM, whilst I was on hold.
I rant a bit at the poor chap who has to answer for the other department’s complete inability to provide any kind of customer service. He listens patently (bless him) but explains it would be best to call back in the morning.
Monday 10th December (Have been cut off for 63 hours now)
My wife rings the support line and is told that the earliest anyone can look at the problem is Wednesday 12th December 2012 and we will have to be without Internet until then.
On top of all this we are “scheduled” for a BT Infinity (I must be a sucker for punishment) to be installed on Friday 14th December 2012. (I have a bet with my father in law for £100 that it is not going to take place. The last time an engineer was due around our house we had a call at 3:30PM from a cross lady who said the engineer had called at our house at 4PM (30 minutes in the future) and we were not at home, and despite it being 30 minutes in the future and that she was speaking to me on my home number would not accept that a) I was at home & b) it wasn’t 4PM yet.
Unfortunately what has passed is a common exchange between us and BT.
So I have some of questions:
What is the process so complicated?
Why do I need to contacted all the time, I am not a child, I trust that when you say you are going to look into the problem you will, all this when you could be mending the problem?
What does the Network Support team need to speak to me when the problem has been diagnosed as being at the Exchange?
Why do Network support arrange for calls to happen AFTER they are closed?
Why does it take 3 days to get an engineer appointment to visit the Exchange, they are there all the time, am I being put the “naughty step” for daring to be out when I should be at home waiting for BT who may or may not call?
Why do I have to wait until Wednesday for get any kind of internet connection, maybe?
Rather than spend all this effort, which on Friday will become redundant, on mending the appalling internet connection when you could send the Infinity engineer around earlier? Believe me we can make sure someone is at home if needed.
Why, every time I have a problem do I have to go through this madness, it is hugely time intensive on my part and must be the same for you, if you didn’t spend half the time try to get in touch with people then you could spend time on mending the problems?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the info.
I will have to try an alternative route to get to BT.
BT OpenReach don't provide any support to end users, they hide behind their relationship with the suppliers, BT Internet in this case, and tell them nothing so they can’t support their customers.
In the real world this type of work model would become extinct; it is only because there is no other alternative can BT Open Reach get away with such disgraceful customer service. I bet that if Virgin Media started digging up the road BT would be round like a shot, otherwise their customers would migrate in drives.
As for the bad weather, it’s a non excuse. We are lucky to have had a little rain in the area but by no means the extent of the rest of the country so unless the local engineers are commuting then they are around somewhere.
As you can tell I have had a bellyful, I have heard every excuse and reason from BT Internet, BT Open Reach and whoever else takes my money under the title "BT".

Cannot go to the Internet from Mac OSX, and Fedora Core 5

All Windows users (XP, 2000, Vista Beta) can connect to the Internet no problem on WRT54G with Firmware v4.20.6 (may 26, 2005). But odd enough, though getting the right DHCP assigned IP addresses and DNS server address, MacBook Pro (OS 10.4.1) and Fedora Core 5 cannot go to the internet at all using Safari and firefox browsers: the message keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the internet. Tested with BOTH wired and wireless connections, no luck to the internet. So, it's not about the wireless settings and setup. It doesn't work even if I directly connect the CAT5 cable to the router port.
Tested at wireless hotspots, at work where we have Cisco access points, and at a friend's place where there is netgear wireless router, MacBookPro is just working fine connected to the internet.
Any suggestions? Linksys doesn't support Mac and Linux PCs at all?

Thank you very much All (devildance, and Frank).
Seems like it is working fine now...
I reset the router as factory default, and reconfig the wireless setting(disable broadcasting SSID, configure TKIP PSK, and MAC filtering). Directly connected CAT5 cable from the router to my MacBookPro Windows XP. Working fine. Switched to Mac OSX, working fine. But, when I disconnected the LAN, and attempted to connect wireless, I couldn't go to the Internet using Safari and Firefox: keeps saying that your computer is not connected to the Internet.
Still could ping to 4.2.2.2 and 207.232.22.25, but getting errors "could not resolve the host name" when I pinged with the hostname bearshare.com.
Connected the wired CAT5. Working fine. Unplugged and used the wireless, could not get to the internet.
Checked the NICs settings on both LAN ethernet and wireless airport. All seems the same and correct: IP address, subnetmask and gateway address, and NO DNS entry. The same settings, but works on LAN cat5, and not works with wireless. So, for the sake of it, just manually added the DNS server IP addresses and domain names on wireless NIC. And Wala...it is working fine with wireless. Still strange the fact that Ethernet LAN NIC still doesn't have any DNS entries and working fine, but required DNS entries on wireless NIC.
For Fedora Core, could ping and resolve names without changing any settings. But when going to the Internet, got the error saying "comcast doesn't support this platform/OS" and another error "Welcome to Comcast High speed Internet....registration currently unavailable" when attempting to go any websites. Notieced that we pinging cnn.com, bearshare.com, or any websites, got ping reply from the same IP address which appears to be one of the comcast DNS server IP, 68.87.64.132.
So, I think it is a comcast issue not supporting Linux or something else which I would need to call to Comcast about...
But, thanks...looks like I can go to the Internet on Mac OSX, and Fedora core now with Linksys WRT54G. Thanks so much guys for all the suggestions....

Couldn't find root user. Sleeping and trying again.

Last week I installed an MSO 2004 update on my G5 iMac running 10.4.11.
Then I attempted to repair permissions. The repair permissions process
halted at about half of the progress bar. I let it cook for about two
hours without success, then tried to force quit Disk Utility. I
couldn't force quit it, so I very reluctantly turned off the Mac;
something I've rarely ever done. I waited five minutes and then turned
the Mac back on. The startup sequence progressed to the point where the
system displays the gray apple on the gray background, and the circular
progress indicator or gear begins turning. I let it turn for one hour
and then powered off the iMac, then powered it back up with the same
results.
I powered it off again and then commenced a Safe Boot. Same results as
before.
I powered it off again and then started it in Single User Mode. No
problem. I ran /sbin/fsck -fy. No problem.
I typed "reboot" and it rebooted. This time I start it in Verbose mode.
After the preliminary startup code, the system began repeating the same
message lines:
dsFindDirNodes returned -14071, count = 0 count = 2147483646
Couldn't find root user. Sleeping and trying again.
A Google search produced very few results. I don't have a backup
because I inherited this iMac from my 75 year old semi retired father
who wanted a 20-inch Intel iMac instead. I just goof around with the G5
iMac from time to time, and am considering giving it to my little niece and
nephews. It worked great for about a month. I have customized my
user account and the accounts for the little ones, so I really don't
want to wipe the hard drive and reinstall Tiger again from scratch.
I booted from the suspect internal hard drive into single user mode.
I ran /sbin/fsck -fy on the internal hard drive.
All tests passed.
I ran fsck_hfs on the internal hard drive.
It returned a message that stated that I needed
to add additional information.
I ran fsck_hfs with several switches enabled, but
it continued to return this message.
I performed the procedures in Apple's article 107210
"Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server: How to Replace the NetInfo
Database (Restoring from defaults).
This did not solve the problem.
I booted this computer from my external Firewire hard drive that I use
to create nightly backups on my G4 iMac using SuperDuper!.
I ran Disk Utility Repair Disk Permissions on the
internal hard drive.
There were no permissions errors.
I ran Disk Utility Repair Disk.
All tests passed.
I ran the TechTool Pro Suites --> Advanced Tests on
the internal hard drive.
All tests passed except for "Startup File" which it
listed as " <Not Present>".
The description of this test is:
"This test checks the Startup file. The parameters
within this file contain the information used by
the computer ROM to determine what program will
boot the computer as well as other system-specific
aspects."
I ran the TechTool Pro Performance --> Maintenance
routine on the internal hard drive.
It completed the maintenance successfully.
I ran DiskWarrior on the internal hard drive.
It reported no directory errors, but I replaced it
anyway.
While booted from the external Firewire hard drive, I viewed what
appears to be the proper compliment of folders on the internal hard
drive. Of course, I didn't examine and verify every subfolder in the
hierarchy, however, examining the Applications, Library, System, and
Users folders two deep seemed to indicate that everything was there.
I booted this computer from my Tiger installation disk. I selected
Utilities --> Reset Password... (I think.). It listed only the
Administrator account (root) on the internal hard drive. It did not
list the other three accounts that I created on this hard drive, even
all three respective folders are present in the Users folder. However,
it did list all four accounts on the still attached external Firewire
hard drive.
By every measure, this drive and its directory are sound. I am
concerned that TechTool Pro reported that the Startup File is Not
Present. Beyond the meaning that the words suggest, I'm not sure what
this really means. I checked the Micromat site and found the following:
The Startup File has been defined but not yet
implemented by Apple.
What does the message signify:
dsFindDirNodes returned -14071, count = 0 count = 2147483646
Couldn't find root user. Sleeping and trying again.
Can I effect a simple repair?
Thank you.

I think besides a reinstall, only DiskWarrior from Alsoft...
http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/
stands a chance of fixing it.

Longtime Sat. internet user's compromise and point of view....
