LRT214 DNS Proxy stops working

Hi,
I have been using the LRT214 for a few months now. I have a few hostnames in the 'Internal DNS list' for internal devices. So I set DHCP to use 'DNS Proxy' and then set the LRT214 to use google dns.
It works well most of the time - clients can resolve internal dns that I configure on the LRT and they are proxied to google dns for everything else.
However about once a month the DNS proxy/server on the LRT stops working and doesn't resolve anything anymore.  The only way to get it back is to reboot the LRT and it then starts working immediately.
This is very frustrating for my users and I am considering replacing the device.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Rob

What firmware version are you running?
An option would be to run a DNS Server on your LAN.

  • Outbound ABAP proxy stops working

    Hello experts,
    We have an interface, which sends data from SAP to PI via outbound proxy. It worked before and at some point it stopped working in dev. But it still works in QA and production. I tried to make sure that the related objects in IR and the ABAP sender program are the same between DEV and QA and regenerated the proxy in SPROXY. However it did not work. No message could be found in SXMB_MONI and in the debugging mode, the exception of CX_INVALID_TRANSFORMATION raised when calling EXECUTE_ASYNCHRONOUS.
    The attribute INTERNAL_SOURCE_POS showed red in variable L_TRANSFORMATION_ERROR, which references to cx_transformation_error.
    Some of the called methods are listed below.
    outbound_handler_execut -> CALL_EXECUTE_OUT -> xi_call_outbound( ) -> xi_process_payload( ) -> CALL METHOD cl_ws_payload_handler=>data_render
    It is appreciated if you could shed some lights on this.
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Shawn

    Hi.
    When you execute Proxy program check in ECC any message created in SXMB_MONI in ECC, of messages were found then shcek the status.
    if no messages then problem with Proxy program , take help from Abaper.

  • Proxy Stops working for no reason, recreating with the wizard works fine

    For no reason I will start getting the following error:
    06/08/29 11:10:37 Caused by: HTTP transport error: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: Message send failed: Connection timed out: connect
    I will then create a new proxy using the wizard and it will work fine the first time. Does anyone know what is going on here? I have the preference for Web Browser proxy turned off
    Here is my info:
    JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4
    Web Services 1.4 RPC-Literal (probably should be RPC-Encoded)

    Not sure if this is the problem but the proxy is working now. It seems that when the WSDL created by the wizard hardcodes the ip address of the local machine into the soap address. Then when you create the proxy using that wizard it uses the same hardcoded ip address. So when you plug into another network get another ip address it won't work. So to make it work I changed both the webservice address and endpoint to use localhost.
    I'm new to the web services stuff so I'm looking for someone to validate this theory.
    Thanks,

  • Cisco Pix 501 / DNS - DNS resolution stops working over time

    Hello,
    I currently have a Cisco Pix 501 with the configuration listed below. It  connects to the public internet via a cable modem and acts as a DCHP  server for the local LAN.
    When it first turns on, all computers obtain the correct IP settings and  can access the internet. Within 10-15 minutes, computers begin to loose  access to the Internet. What’s strange is that each computer that lost  Internet access can ping the remote address but cannot perform an  nslookup. (it shows as Server UnKnown)
    The DNS server is 167.206.254.2 which is the external dns server  provided by my ISP. I can ping this address but the local computer is  unable to use it for domain to ip resolution.
    Then network used to have an existing Windows Small Business Server that  was a DNS and WINS Server. I ran dcpromo to remove the role of the  server and uninstalled dns via add/remove components.
    Can someone please help me determine why the computers over time loose  the ability to resolve domain names and therefore loose internet access?  Can there be some bad DNS entries created? Is there anything I can run  on the local computers to further troubleshoot dns errors? Is it  possible that the existing Windows SBS server is still running DNS and  therefore causing conficts in some way?
    One thing to note is that when I reset the Pix 501, everything begins to  work again but only for a short time until one by one each computer can  no longer resolve domain names. Also, I noticed that once someone  connects via VPN and disconnects, one of the local computers looses the  ability to resolve DNS.

    Wow...i didn't realize this was possible. I will certainly check the logs tomorrow via the existing thread but just to confirm, is this only true if DHCP is enabled on PIX?
    In other words, I managed to work around this issue by applying static IP's to all computers and the internet works just fine.

  • [SOLVED] DNS stops working

    Hi!
    I'm running arch64 on my Thinkpad x220 and have a strange problem here.
    Sometimes DNS just stops working, to rule out a bad Server I tried it with the one of Google:
    dig @8.8.8.8 archlinux.puzzle.ch
    On Archlinux dig tells me that no servers could be reached, although I can successfully ping 8.8.8.8.
    Running MacOSX on another machine in the same network, dig gives me back the matching a-record.
    This usually lasts from a few minutes up to about two hours, only on archlinux. Does somebody have any idea on this?

    You are right, the manpage says 'dig @server query' but it seems to work either way. Maybe you can try 'tcptraceroute 8.8.8.8 53', it will probe tcp port 53 directly, although not the same as a "normal" dns query that will use udp [1] it will be quite close.

  • Full NAT dns proxy is not working in Windows 7

    Back in XP, I can activate the Windows full blown NAT service via RemoteAccess and IpNat (I turned off SharedAccess as it's not compatible with RemoteAccess) and use netsh to configure it. I activated the dns proxy via 'netsh routing ip dnsproxy' context.
    It works very well all these years.
    Now using Windows 7, I can't make it work anymore. I have copied over both ipmontr.dll & ippromon.dll from Windows 2K8 R2, and install those helper to my Windows 7 netsh. I can access 'netsh routing ip dnsproxy' context. But enabling the the DNS proxy
    doesn't do anything. DNS Request (UDP port 53) coming form the client in the private LAN served by this PC just sinked in, no response. I don't see any DNS request attempt on the public network interface of this PC.
    From 'netstat -na', I don't see UDP port 53 on private network interface is opened. In XP, I can see it's opened and closed as I enable or disable the DNS proxy on 'netsh routing ip dnsproxy' context. I enable the firewall log to see if the firewall block
    it, but I see absolutely nothing related to the DNS request.
    Is there a missing step to enable a full blown NAT service in Windows 7 that I missed? Pls help.
    Thx

    Thank you all for replies, but ICS is NOT an option. It can only handle 1 private network and limited to 192.168.0.0/24. In our test framework we need 2 private network and use 172.20.0.0/14. Using Windows Server is way too expensive, we have so many test
    benches that each having their private network the above for test isolation. We only need NAT functionality, not the whole Windows Server functionality.
    I also found out, despite netsh manage to configure the NAT, but actually no NATing is taken any place. Not only the DNS proxy, but the whole NAT just not happening.
    IMHO, removing it from Win7 is a mistake, not every one need the whole server functionality. We have decided to use linux instead. So we cancel the plan to upgrade to Win7 and go linux. Microsoft could have got some license fee from the Win7 we plan to puchase,
    but this is a deal killer for us as NAT is the core of our test framework based on. Not ideal for us as we have many win native based tools, but since we are already moving to python, I guess moving to linux is the answer for us.
    Had Win7 still has the full NAT capability as in WinXP, I do prefer to stay on windows, but we have to move on as WinXP is no longer supported.
    I consider this thread is close. Thank you all.

  • OS X Snow Leopard server, proxy server stopped working.

    Hi All,
    I have OS X  Snow Leopard Server (10.6.8) configured as a forward proxy server.  It was working fine for a year until today.  I cannot access any external web sites and get the following error:
    Service Unavailable!
    The server is temporary unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems.  Please try again later.
    If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
    Error 503

    Sun Jul 27 22:53:18 2014
    Apache/2.2.24 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.24 OpenSSL/0.9.8y
    If I change the proxy configuration on the Mac client (MacBook Air) to access the Internet directly (bypass the proxy server) all websites work fine.  In the Server Admin, Web, logs I see the following errors:
    Access /var/log/apache2/access_log.
    "GET http://www.apple.com/startpage/HTTP/1.1" 503 1062
    Error /var/log/apache2/error_log.
    [error](60)Operation timed out: proxy:HTTP:attempt to connect to 2.16.236.183:80(*) failed.
    I have tried the following but made no difference:
    -Stop/Start the Web Server.
    -Restarted the Server completely.
    -Uninstalled/Reinstalled the Web Server (Off/On).
    -Reconfigured the forward proxy settings.
    -Empty the proxy cache folder.
    -Checked the files exist under /etc/apache2 folder.
    -Checked the files exist under /var/log/apache2 folder.
    -Checked the the proxy_module and ssl_module are enabled.
    Any ideas and how to troubleshoot this issue further is most appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I think I have fixed it.  I have reloaded/restarted the Cisco router/firewall back end and front end now proxy is working again.  Very odd since I use the same devices to connect directly to the Internet without the proxy server.  Oh well, it's working again so it's all good.

  • Proxying from FMS to HTTP stops working after a few hours

    Hi,
    I'm using FMS Streaming 3.5.0 r405 on linux servers to stream videos with RTMP/RTMPT. We have decided to use the new proxying function to redirect HTTP requests to a Web server. We did not install the included Apache server, but used a lighttpd server installed on the same machines and configured to listen on port 81. So when a client connects with our player, it tries first RTMP, RTMPT and if it times out on these attemps, we try to go through with HTTP. FMS proxies the HTTP request received on port 80 to the lighttpd server on port 81.
    My fms.ini file contains:
    # Whether to start and stop the included HTTP server along
    # with FMS.
    SERVER.HTTPD_ENABLED = false
    # IP (address and) port that Flash Media Server should proxy
    # unknown HTTP requests to. Leave empty to disable proxying.
    # With no address, specifies a localhost port.
    # For example:
    #    HTTPPROXY.HOST = webfarm.example.com:80
    HTTPPROXY.HOST = :81
    This works well, but after a few hours, the HTTP proxy of FMS does not work anymore. Lighttpd is still responding on port 81. There is no error in all log files. Just stops working!
    I have to restart FMS to enable again the tunnel. This behavior happens on all my streamers. Is it a bug or am I missing something?

  • My Samba server stopped working and I have no idea why.

    I set up a samba server once I got arch installed and it was working like a boss for about a month. Then one day (i think the machine may have rebooted) it just stopped working. I can't access my samba share from any of my other machines (all running Windows 7). I hadn't changed anything so I don't know what the culprit is. I did some update and looked at the smb.conf file but everything seems to be in order. I also tried to connect with smbclient from the machine itself and I get an NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED error.
    What's going on?
    Here is my smb.conf
    # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
    # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
    # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too

    Hi,
    My thought is to check the current IP of the server, as your smb.conf has the line interfaces = 192.168.1.109 which means samba will only listen on that interface for requests. If the IP of the server has changed, that would explain why samba isn't working.

    Same exact thing with me.  And no help from apple.  Just dropped nearly $600 and cannot get a decent working setup.
    Apple's only suggestion was to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime, and re-install... of course (the I.T. Crowd tactic).
    The crash happens only on iTunes store access.

  • BBM & Email stop working every morning...​.

    Every morning my BBM, Whatsapp, Email and Facebook notifications stop working....
    BBM has a red clock when sending and doesn't receive and the others don't receive or send anything...
    The only fix has been pulling the battery or doing a soft reset with ctrl+alt+delete.
    I have tried reinstalling the apps, reinstalling the OS (don't know how to format and reinstall tho)
    Can anyone give me some solutions? Does it sound like a hardware problem?
    My phone is a brand new out the box Blackberry Curve 8520, its got an etisalat sim card as I live in Dubai if that matters. 

    Cat and Maximo,
    > Let me try to get that straight. Your BM does static NAT for your
    > mailserver (and other boxes), and suddenly UDP and ICMP from these
    > natted servers through the BM still works, but TCP doesn't?
    Yes. That's what it looks like.
    > Can you still do TCP *to* the BM from the natted devices when that
    > happens? As you say your proxy continues to work, it sounds as if TCP in
    > general on the server continues to work, but does it also work from the

    Everyone browsing via BM proxy continues with no interuption.
    The mail server can telnet to any other server on the internal LAN but
    nothing past BM. DNS continues working for the mail server too.
    > If really nothing changed, this might be a (succesful) DOS attack of
    > some sort. I wonder if a LAN trace could reveal anything of interest.
    Do you mean port scan the BM server?
    I know that "nothing has changed" is a loaded statement. The only thing
    (that I know of) that has changed relatively recently is the addition of
    the Squid server. It has been running behind the BM server for about 3
    weeks. Recently I added a filter exception allowing the Squid server to
    access higher ports (dyn/tcp).
    But, as I noted before, I think removing ipflt should eliminate any
    doubts there. Is there some way Squid could be corrupting something there?
    The problem was compounded this morning (saturday). I came in today so I
    would have the network essentially to myself. But, to my surprise,
    everything was ok.
    Cat, You're right. This server is no spring chicken. It is an IBM
    Netfinity 3000. Its probably 3 or 4 years old (maybe more). I will think
    about this as a hardware problem but I just wish the thing would die
    altogether and get it over with. :o)
    Thanks,
    Brian

  • Thunderbolt camera stopped working with Skype and Google Hangouts

    Some time ago my built in camera on the thunderbolt stopped working with Skype.  If I activate the camera the green light turns on but the screen either remains black or it shows that spinning loading incon forever.  The green light stays on indicating the camera is active no matter what I do with skype even if I press the button to deactivate the camera.  The green light remains on until you completely kill skype.  Rebooting, reinstalling skype, etc. does nothing.
    Today I disocvered I have the same thing with Google hangouts.  All the way around exactly the same and the green light won't turn off until you kill the web browser.  Same thing with FireFox or Safari.  Also it no longer works on Viber either.
    It's quite infuriating.
    I am not sure if this has anything to do with this awful virus like program called "CamTwist" that I installed once and had a very difficult time removing or not.
    Reinstalling OS X from scratch is not an option.  Too much work, too many programs to reinstall and reconfigure etc.
    How can I get my camera back?
    The camera works just fine with Photobooth and facetime.
    Thanks.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

  • TCP services stop working every morning

    Hello,
    I have a relatively complex problem that has brought me to the limit of
    my limited knowledge.
    History: I have a BM 3.5 server running on NW 5.0. I am patched. It has
    been running for years. I have a linux cluster running qmail. All traffic
    from the internal network passes through the cluster and then through BM
    to get to the internet (dedicated connection). BM is running NAT (static
    and dynamic), firewall and proxy services.
    Monday things changed. Now everyday I arrive in the morning and mail is
    mounting up on the cluster. If I unload ipflt on BM nothing changes. I
    can't telnet to any 25 or 80 port from the mail server. All services stop
    that use TCP. I have a squid server in test right now. This server has a
    statitic NAT address. That machine (and others) can ping addresses using
    DNS on the internet (with ipflt unloaded) but can not browse or send mail.
    I am monitoring my internet router (it is outside the BM server) via MRTG
    and snmp (UDP) from a machine on the internal network. This does not stop
    working.
    The proxy on BM continues working perfectly.
    Routing has not presented any noticible problem.
    Summary: Every morning all TCP services running behind BM stop working.
    UDP and ICMP continues. I have unloaded NAT and reloaded to no avail. The
    only solution seems to be the restarting of BM. Once I do that everything
    starts up again.
    How do I trouble shoot a TCP problem on BM? This is probably the oddest
    thing I have seen. Quite frankly I'm not sure if it is BM (NAT). This
    maybe a basic Netware problem.
    Any thoughts would be extremely appreciated.
    Brian

    Cat and Maximo,

    > mailserver (and other boxes), and suddenly UDP and ICMP from these

    Yes. That's what it looks like.
    > Can you still do TCP *to* the BM from the natted devices when that

    Everyone browsing via BM proxy continues with no interuption.
    The mail server can telnet to any other server on the internal LAN but
    nothing past BM. DNS continues working for the mail server too.
    > If really nothing changed, this might be a (succesful) DOS attack of
    > some sort. I wonder if a LAN trace could reveal anything of interest.
    Do you mean port scan the BM server?
    I know that "nothing has changed" is a loaded statement. The only thing
    (that I know of) that has changed relatively recently is the addition of
    the Squid server. It has been running behind the BM server for about 3
    weeks. Recently I added a filter exception allowing the Squid server to
    access higher ports (dyn/tcp).
    But, as I noted before, I think removing ipflt should eliminate any
    doubts there. Is there some way Squid could be corrupting something there?
    The problem was compounded this morning (saturday). I came in today so I
    would have the network essentially to myself. But, to my surprise,
    everything was ok.
    Cat, You're right. This server is no spring chicken. It is an IBM
    Netfinity 3000. Its probably 3 or 4 years old (maybe more). I will think
    about this as a hardware problem but I just wish the thing would die
    altogether and get it over with. :o)
    Thanks,
    Brian

  • Clicks stop working after opening iPhoto or App Store

    Everything works fine until I open iPhoto or the App Store (could happen with other apps, but these two for sure) then "clicks" stop working, My cursor moves and some items highlight, but nothing will "click"... I can't select photos, can't click on Download button, can't click to All Events, etc. Tasks can be accomplished with keyboard shortcuts. In App Store, I can't even highlight to try to click. Once these apps are opened, mouse clicks no longer work in other apps.
    I've tried switching from Magic Trackpad to a Logitech Nano mouse; same thing happens.
    Using Mac Pro & Mavericks. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a couple of minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking  anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin; clear; Fb='%s\n\t(%s)\n'; Fm='\n%s\n\n%s\n'; Fr='\nRAM details\n%s\n'; Fs='\n%s: %s\n'; Fu='user %s%%, system %s%%'; PB="/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c Print"; A () { [[ a -eq 0 ]]; }; M () { find -L "$d" -type f | while read f; do file -b "$f" | egrep -lq XML\|exec && echo $f; done; }; Pc () { o=`grep -v '^ *#' "$2"`; Pm "$1"; }; Pm () { [[ "$o" ]] && o=`sed '/^ *$/d; s/^ */   /' <<< "$o"` && printf "$Fm" "$1" "$o"; }; Pp () { o=`$PB "$2" | awk -F'= ' \/$3'/{print $2}'`; Pm "$1"; }; Ps () { o=`echo $o`; [[ !

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter
    exec bash
    in the window and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know your password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
    8. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If it happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • ActiveSync stops working after migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

    We have started the migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We've followed best practices and everything is working great except ActiveSync. I've performed Exchange migrations in the past so this is nothing new for me. I've also been referring to
    a great guide which has been a big help,
    http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/migration-deployment/planning-and-migrating-small-organization-exchange-2007-2013-part1.html.
    Once a user is migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2013, ActiveSync stops working properly. Email can be pulled to the device (Nokia Lumia 625 running Windows Phone 8) by performing a manual sync. But DirectPush is not working. The strange part is it's not affecting
    everyone who's been migrated. Anyone who is still on Exchange 2007 is not affected.
    At first I thought it was our wildcard certificate. 99% of our users are running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 or higher but we do have a few terminal servers still running Outlook 2010. Outlook 2010 was giving us certificate errors. I realized it was the wildcard
    certificate. Rather than making changes to the OutlookProvider I simply obtained a new SAN certificate. Although that resolved the issues for Outlook 2010 users, ActiveSync was still a problem.
    Rebooting the phones and removing the email account from the user's device and re-adding it didn't resolve the issue either.
    Then I performed an iisreset on the CAS server. This didn't help either. I didn't know it at the time, but I was getting closer...
    I tried using the cmdlet Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity but it gave me the following error:
    WARNING: Test user 'extest_0d9a45b025374' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
    connectivity.
    Could not find or sign in with user DOMAIN.com\extest_0d9a45b025374. If this task is being run without
    credentials, sign in as a Domain Administrator, and then run Scripts\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to verify that
    the user exists on Mailbox server EX02.DOMAIN.COM
    I started reviewing how Exchange 2013 proxied information from the CAS to the mailbox server and realized the issue may in fact be on the mailbox server.
    I performed an iisreset on the mailbox server and all of a sudden ActiveSync started working again. Awesome!
    I can't explain why. The only thing I can assume is when some users were migrated from 2007 to 2013 something wasn't being triggered on the Exchange 2013 side. Resetting IIS resolved the issue. I guess I'll have to do an IIS reset after I perform a batch
    of migrations. Disabling ActiveSync and re-enabling it for the affected users didn't help - only the IISRESET resolved the issue.
    If anyone has any information as to why this happens, please chime in. Also, if anyone knows why I can't run the Test-ActiveSyncConnectivity cmdlet, I'd appreciate the help.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
    Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
    public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
    there’s no coexistence between versions.
    For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
    first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx
