Looking for Tiger compatable network logging tool/program

I have a client that has become email blacklisted. They are hosting their own email server on a Mac OS X server. However some of the clients in the building are PC. Not sure if someone is using them as relay or they have a zombie PC.
Looking for a program we can run on a Mac at the MOPE of the internet connection and log incomming and outgoing traffic. We want to determine whats going on. Anyone have a reccomendation? I looked at Net Monitor, but its logs look to vague. Only showing IP address and a connection, not whats going on with that connection. We are looking for something like Net Monitor but with packet sniffing I guess. Anyone ?

I've been blacklisted twice by Spamcop...

I assure you that I've not spammed once, nor are any of my machines compromised, never "used" for spamming... either the IP was Spoofed, or the fact that I didn't have a Static IP, means that IP was garnered by someone that was spamming or compromised.
If they are Macs, Little Snitch tells you when a program tries to send info to the internet so you can see what's going on in the background!

If there are PCs involved, 40% chance it's infected I read!

  • Looking for the Garbage Collection log files

    Hello,
    I am looking for the Garbage Collection log files which contain the GC events, like this:
    [GC 2095K->1709K(2160K), 0.0017628 secs]
    [Full GC 2161K->1018K(2276K), 0.0576353 secs]
    The server's GC is already configured accordingly:
    –verbose:gc
    I have examined the std_server<x>.out files at the work folder but can't see this info.
    My question is: Where would I find these files on the server?

    I can't find info in the format I know it not at dev_server* or std_server*.
    in std_server I see xml file like this:
    <gc type="scavenger" id="1" totalid="1" intervalms="0.000">

    I guess this is the info I need but it's not formatted in a way that your tool can read it and having a tool like this reading it is very helpful.
    Any ideas?

  • Looking for best wireless Network Adapter for my PowerMac G5

    Dual 2.3 GHz PowerMac G5 (PowerMac11,2)
    5.5GBs DDR2 SDRAM
    Leopard 10.5
    Before the local Mac Store upgraded me from Tiger To Leopard I was using a Hawking Technology HWUG1A Wireless Adapter. It was clunky and the software crashed me now and then. Now that I'm on 10.5 the Hawking Tech. software  crashed me every time it tried to connect to the router. I uninstalled it using AppCleaner, then reinstalled the Hawking 'Leopard version' of the software/firmware, still crashing me.
    There support says "it should work" which I could still pursue getting it to work correctly, but I want to move on since I've never been happy with the product and don't want to risk wasting to much time incase it is simply not going to work.
    It seems I have some PCI(e) slots (whatever is in the PowerMac) available on this mac, can it take a wireless network card? That would be much better than a USB doogle. Anyway, I'm looking for a reliable solution for connecting my PowerMac G5 to my router without using cables. Can you please recommend a product if you know of one?
    Thanks for your time!

  • Looking for clarification on network latency issue vs drive mapping

    Hi,
    I am seeing this as mystery and not getting crystal clear idea on the reason for the issue. Issue is related to the performance of the application interms of time it is taking in processing the input file.
    I wrote a swing application, which is a client application. Which takes some parameters like server name and iphostaddress and connects to the Process Server which is, responsible for processing client application requests. Client application will communicate with process server through TCP/IP connection and process the input file and returns the decisions back to the user through the output file.
    Below is the scenarios I am using for launching the application:
    1. If both client application and server are running locally in my desktop the time it is taking to process the input file is 2 minutes.
    2. If client is running my application and server is running remotely on wondows server, it's taking 13 minutes to process same input file.
    3. To reduce the time in scenario2, I installed the client appliation also on the remote server ( so that both client and server application are running on the windows server). and mapped the server's share drive to my desktop. And launched the application from my desktop (from U drive, where application is mapped), now it's taking 10 minutes to process the same input file.
    I am struggling in understanding why it's taking that long in scenario 3. Because application is installed locally on the server and input file and output files also copied onto the U drive. Sometimes thinking am I launching the application in the right way or not?
    Can somebody explain me, if we launch the remote java application through drive mapping will there be network latency there eventhough everything is there on the server (U drive)? Here I need to tell one more scenario 4, If loginto the remote windows server and launch the client application time it's taking to process the same input file is about a minute.
    Below are some more details on the issue: I am not encoding the file, I am using third party application, which provides an API to communicate with the process server. Just using the API methods and classes to pass the input file data to server. I have used the 'tracert' command for the remote server and I am seeing 8 hops between my desktop and remote server. I even installed network sniffer tool in my laptop and captured the files when application running.
    The input file has 140000 records (text lines with comma delimited) of 6.271MB in size. I have posted to understand the time it is taking in scenario3, where evrything is on mapped drive (i.e, client application and input file are technically recides on the server right?) , but client application is launched from desktop. The reason I am doing this way is, instead of log-in into the remote server, user can easily launch the application from the desktop. So, when I try to launch the application this way, this doesn't count as if client application is running local to the server? Will it becomes remote (I have even captured the network traffic file in this scenario too, and I have seen the comminication between my desktop ip address to server ip address and server is taking abour 3.84 milliseconds for each item to respond to client, I think it's just travel time not the process time). I am assuming, even when application launched from drive that is mapped, it should take about 1 minute (the time taking when I launch the aplication after log-into the server,not through drive mapping) to prcess input file as everything is on the server.
    Thanks in advance,
    Jyothi

    reading and writing the data shouldn't be the problem, its what you are doing with the data which will be taking all the time.
    Try this
    public class WriteFile {

            String filename = "record.csv";
            int records = 140 * 1000;
            int values = 6;
                long start = System.nanoTime();
                PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(filename)));
                for (int r = 0; r < records; r++) {
                    for (int i = 0; i < values; i++) {
                        if (i > 0)
                            pw.print(',');
                        pw.print(r * 10 + i);
                    pw.println();
                pw.close();
                long time = System.nanoTime() - start;
                System.out.printf("Time to write %,d records was %.3f sec. file size=%.3fMB%n",
                        records, time / 1e9, new File(filename).length() / 1e6);
                long start = System.nanoTime();
                BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(filename));
                String line;
                while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                    // do some work.
                    String[] parts = line.split(",");
                    int[] nums = new int[parts.length];
                    for (int i = 0; i < parts.length; i++)
                        nums[i] = Integer.parseInt(parts);
    br.close();
    long time = System.nanoTime() - start;
    System.out.printf("Time to read %,d records was %.3f sec%n",
    records, time / 1e9);

  • Looking for a Calendar w/ Management Tool

    Hi, I am looking for a calendar creator that comes with some sort of Management Tool so that once I have adapted the code to fit a site, my clients can easily add events without messing with the code. Does anyone know of one or use one that they like?

    You don't have order iPhoto books, prints, etc. from the US if you're in the UK or Ireland. Those are printed in-country; you can see pricing here. So there may be VAT, but there won't be any import/release fees.
    But as has been pointed out already, iPhoto is a Mac-only application. So unless you have access to a Mac you can use, you'll have to look for an equivalent application/service for Windows.

  • Looking for a more suitable animation tool

    I've been creating animations from sprites in After Effects, with mixed results.  The input is a number of pixel art sprites (exported from elsewhere), and the output is a video, characters running around and interacting.  I have AFX doing quite a lot, but it's very awkward and I'm pretty sure it's the wrong tool for the job.  Can anyone either suggest better approaches, or more suitable software?  I'll describe what I'm doing now:
    - Many sprites are bodies or heads to combine, eg. a smiling or angry faces and walking or standing bodies.  I set the head position for each body sprite, so any head fits in the right place on any body (trivial rigging), then apply it with a script, so I can change the body and the head moves to the right place automatically.
    - Some sprites have multiple layers.  For example, while heads are normally on top of bodies, a body may have an arm raised, which needs to be above the head instead of below it.  I can create the extra layer for the body separately, and it works for any head.
    - I can set the draw order per-layer.  Usually, one character and all of its parts is drawn on top of another--body1, head1, body2, head2.  But, if two characters collide, handshake, or interact in other complex ways, I may want to draw both bodies, and then both heads, even though the heads and bodies are still anchored normally.  Some sprites may have multiple layers, eg. body, head, hands, legs.  (Z position hack...)
    - Individual layers can be adjusted separately, eg. to adjust the default head position downwards to give a nod.
    - Some sprites are hue shifted (hair color, clothing color) or have more complex adjustments applied, so I can reuse more sprites.
    (I'm only describing what I'm doing and not how.  I wrote more detail about what I'm actually doing in AFX and the specific issues I'm having, but it was too long and people can probably already guess the practical issues of using AFX like this.  I'll post more info if anybody asks.)
    The result is functional, but a real hassle to actually work with.  AFX is a compositing and effects tool and it's not really designed for animations, and only its scripting support has let me abuse it this much.  I don't know of a better tool, though--searches for animation tools mostly come up with things like Spine (authoring individual models for importing into games), and nothing suitable for creating complex video animations from sprite sets.
    There are probably many tools to do small pieces of this (sprite animation sequences, effects, scene animation, camera), but I'd really like to not split into a multi-tool workflow, since I want to experiment freely with a scene, not lay out an entire scene and then create it start to finish.  Does anyone have any suggestions (or better places to ask)?

    There are many other DTP applications:

  • Looking for some functionalities in MSBI tool

    Objective:
    We are trying to bringing a uniform UX & to help non-power users to use the tool. Hence we are exploring options of using .net as UI using which we can call functionalities on the BI tool.
    We are planning to use a single uniform tool for all our reporting needs & the same are listed below.
    Limitations:
    There are limitations in each tool we explore(Power view & Performance Point) Eg.,  some allows drill down, decomposition tree, download functionalities are not commonly available across.
    Needs:
    a.      
    Conversion between chart types/ views (Bar, tabular, pie.etc.,)
    b.     
    Passing parameters from .net UI to reporting tool.
    c.      
    Drill down/ up functionality – for logical decomposition & Ad-hoc drilling down/ up.
    d.     
    Print option
    e.     
    Export into .xls, .pdf, .pptx
    Tools considered/ available as per client’s policy:
    PPS, power view, SSRS – Please advise if you feel there’s any other tool/ version which could be .net friendly & also meets the above criteria.
    SFH

    Hi SFH,
    I would suggest that you can try to use SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). SSRS provides a full range of ready-to-use tools and services to help you create, deploy, and manage reports for your organization, as well as programming features that enable
    you to extend and customize your reporting functionality.
    And based on my research, SSRS can meet most of your requirements, including drill down and download functionalities. If we installed Reporting Services in SharePoint mode, then we can also use PPS, power view features.
    For more information about Reporting Services, please refer to the following documents:

  • Looking for a simple password reset tool

    I work for a public school district. We want the librarians at each campus to reset passwords for students to take the load off of the help desk. We used to be a Novell network and we had a simple password reset gui tool that they used. Now it seems in our
    new Microsoft network, there is only the Active Directory Users and Computer mmc.
    I've looked into self service solutions but they are too expensive for us.
    - Most of the network is Win7 or OSX.
    - I don't want them to see the entire AD infrastructure.
    Can anyone recommend a free or low cost alternative?
     

    you can use DSMOD command
    dsmod user "CN=Don Funk,CN=Users,DC=Contoso,DC=Com" -pwd A1b2C3d4 -mustchpwd yes
    If you don't know the DN of the user you can use DSQUERY with user name and pipe the result to DSMOD

  • Looking for a way to log privilege adds even when the user has that priv

    We've run into a situation where we want IDM to log privilege adds/removes, even when that privilege already exists (for add) or doesn't exist (for remove) on a person.  Let me give some background.
    We are a small team working on an IDM project, each team member with 6-30 months of experience with the IDM product.  We're using 7.1.
    We have two systems, one of which is queryable and (certain) privileges updatable via REST API -- we'll call this system REST.  The second system of course is IDM.
    When an IDM privilege is added or removed, the business requirement is to always keep IDM and REST in sync, privilege-wise.  This is no problem and we have provisioning set up to make the API call, and it works great.  However, if there is a problem with the REST API (network issue, just plain down, etc.) this sync can't happen.  So, within the provisioning framework, if there is a failure, the failure is logged and the privilege is reverted, keeping REST and IDM synced.  A job runs regularly to check this log table and re-attempt the appropriate action, which of course will trigger provisioning again, hopefully successfully.
    The problem occurs in a situation like this, where each point comes in chronological order.
    1. User X gets privilege Y granted within an IDM UI.
    2. Provisioning triggers, but for some reason the REST API call fails (twice, because of retry).
    3. The failure task for the REST API call removes privilege Y from user X.  The error is logged.
    4. After a while, some job runs which removes privilege Y from all users whose names begin with X.  Even if the job explicitly removes privilege Y from user X, this is not logged in the system in any way, doesn't trigger provisioning, etc.
    5. After another while, the "retry job" runs and attempts action #1 again.  This time, the provisioning succeeds.  Now user X has privilege Y on both IDM and REST.  However, because of step 4, clearly user X should not have privilege Y.
    The same (well, reverse) issue occurs when removing the priv in step 1 and doing a grant in step 4.  During tests, one can just set up a To Identity Center step and remove/assign a privilege to an arbitrary person, then run the job containing this step repeatedly.  If the action has no net effect, there's no record (in, for example, sentries, oentries, or indeed in mxi_(old)values).  It would be great if there was a generic way to cause these actions to be logged, and we've actually thought of a couple other cases where this logging would be useful as well.  Is there some simple way?  Is it already logged in some esoteric table we haven't thought of?
    Any thoughts on this interesting scenario would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    Hi Chris,
    If I understand correctly, since you are using the log to ensure that the privileges are synced.
    Any chance you could enhance step 4 to remove information about the failed assignment from the log, so that it will not be retried?
    Note also, that this is improved in IdM7.2 and the framework. You will only get the privilege assigned after the add-member task has successfully assigned the privilege in the back-end system (which is what you are trying to achieve).

    The dynamic ports use a pipeline including a custom pipeline component which I can confirm is available in the correct directory
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2013\Pipeline Components
    I’m a bit stuck at what to try now, I have option where I could recreate the dynamic ports from scratch in the orchestrations and redeploy to dev in the hope it’s something
    that VS2012 didn’t handle too gracefully when converting the project. 
    Two things.
    1. That's what I would do first, recreate (really just change and reset the properties) the Orchestration Ports in Visual Studio.
    2. Probably not related but, Custom Pipeline Components should not be placed in the Pipeline Components folder.  All Custom Pipeline Components should be in the GAC only.  The Pipeline Components folder
    is a compatibility vestige from BizTalk Server 2004.
