Mac OS X Server 10.4 - connect admin tools from one network to another?

Hi,
This may seem quite strange, but I have to do some administration of a server one one network, while being within another one. It seems that if I am able to connect to the internet utside of the office network (e.g. on a public network using wireless), I can just fire upp the mac admin tools and do my work perfectly.
However, if I try to do the same while connected to the company network (which is governed by a OS X Server), I get nowhere. Can't even get a connection.
Is there a way to get around this?

I've run the Server Admin tool over a VPN; from a Mac OS X client (with the tools installed) on a remote LAN to a firewall-based VPN end-point. Worked fine; this configuration can work.
It's possible here that you're encountering subnet routing, as various of the VPN solutions need either send all traffic over the VPN (there's a setting for that), or the local and the target LANs need be in separate and unique subnets. (As is my wont, I typically configure and use an outboard firewall. Not a host-based firewall.)
So this could be a firewall port or three that need be opened (as mentioned in in earlier reply), or this could be subnet routing.

    hi...
    install client software in your machine
    perform, listener configuration using net configuration assistant,
    Now using this listener name, you create a DSN and use it in rpd,, you want to develope
    OR
    go to ODBC Data Source & Administrator and add DSN with Microsoft ODBC for Oracle
    in server field, you write your parent machine\listenername
    and use this in rpd... i hope the second one works out...

  • From one day do another server admin don't connect to the server

    I have an Intel XServe with OSX Server 10.4.10.
    From one day do another server admin don't connect to the server locally and remotely. The workgroup admin shows not the sharing button. The other services works correct. (FileService, NetBoot, ping etc ...). In the CrashReporter I've only find a crash from dashboardadvisoryd. I don't want restart the server.
    I there an other solution?
    Thanks Sven

    I found the solution in a message three above:

    With
    sudo kill -HUP `ps aux|grep 'servermgrd'|grep -v 'grep'|awk '{print $2;}'`
    from the terminal ... and after any minute's later the problem was solved

    Hi,
    this may be a false/positive log record.
    First check the services and applications on the effecting machine (NETSTAT -ANO) to see which connections the machine has established or tries to establish.
    Check the machine against viruses and spyware.
    if you don't find any viruses / spyware or "mysterious" connections, create a connection exception limit in the flood mitigation settings on your TMG Server:

  • How can I migrate file shares & permissions from one volume to another on the same server?

    I am replacing a storage array and as part of that process, I need to move files/folders and Shares/permissions from one Volume to another volume within the same server.
    The server is Windows 2003 file server.  The file transfers are not a problem, moving all 40 shares with permissions etc. is my main concern because in order to maintain everything I need to change the drive letter of the new volume to match the old
    one so that links to various resources throughout the network do not break.

    Hi, 
    If you want to copy files/folders from one Volume to another volume within the same server, you could use the File Server Migration Tool (FSMT) or Robocopy to accomplish your goals. The tool can move all of the files from the shares on your original volume
    to the new volume.
    For more detailed information, you could refer to the articles below:
    File Server Migration Toolkit
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2006.10.utilityspotlight.aspx
    The File Server Migration Toolkit (FSMT) is a free download available at:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=10268
    Robocopy
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145.aspx
    FSMT and Robocopy will not copy Share permissions but only NTFS permissions. So if the drive letter will not be changed, you can backup and restore the Share permission with steps here:
    Saving and restoring existing Windows shares

  • Migrate File Server data from one volume to another

    I am looking for the best way to handle this situation. We have a VHD that has a 4KB cluster size that is getting close to the 16TB mark so no expanding past that due to the cluster size. In the past whenever i needed to pull this off i would preload as
    much data as possible with robocopy, then during a maintenance window take the share offline, do a refresh with robocopy then flip everything that i needed to flip drive letter and share setup etc.
    I have the space to do a complete copy like this so that is not an issue. But other things to keep in mind are the data is deduplicated so we are talking 20TB total. The other is the backup of the File Server is done at a file level with DPM so DPM will
    see this as a new volume and be an issue.
    At this point i have time to plan and am just looking for ideas.

  • How can I using tpcall from one service to another service in the same server

    anybody can tell me why?Basically, tpcall:ing another service in the same server is a no-no, unless you
    a) are running a multi-threaded server (requires TUXEDO 7 or newer + compilation
    options) or
    b) use tpacall() instead of tpcall() and specify the flag TPNOREPLY. This is probably
    not what you want to accomplish, though.
    The reason is that TUXEDO servers by default (and always in versions before 7)
    are single-threaded. If service A and B both reside in server X, server X will
    be busy taking care of the call to A. If A makes a call to B, the call will be
    put on the queue to X, but X will not look at the queue until it is done with
    A, which won't happen until B returns... deadlock!
    You can play tricks with starting multiple instances of X, but in the end you
    will always face a risk (something lika a race-condition) for a dead-lock.
    Solution: Move service B to another server (usually quite easy) OR switch to multi-threading,
    if that's possible. Just make sure all code your service calls is MT-safe as well...
    thanks

  • Can printer connect to more than one network?

    Hello.
    I just bought the wireless HP deskjet 3050 printer. I've connected it to the internet (network) and it's working perfectly. Is it possible to connect to more than one network? We have more than one internet line in the house so I was wondering if I can set it up for both lines. I understand that I can print with multiple computers on the same network (and I am able to do so), but how about on different networks?
    Thanks.

    No, it only has one network connection device so can only connect to one at time, sorry.

  • Copy Custom toolbar from one instance to another in Project server 2007

    Hi,
    I am currently using project server 2007. We have a number of instances in our Project server enivoronment. Is it possible to copy customized toolbar from one instance to another? If yes, how?
    Thanks in advance 

    Hi Khaldun,
    As per my reply in your previous post, here is a link explaining how to use the organizer:
    Http://blogs.msdn.com/b/project/archive/2010/10/22/tips-and-tricks-copy-custom-views-filters-tables-and-other-elements-to-other-projects.aspx?Redirected=true
    Basically, just copy the toolbar from the global source instance into a blank project file. Then do the same operation from the blank file containing your toolbar into the destination global model, still using the organizer. 
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I move over stored connections on Fire FTP from one PC to another PC ?

    I have about twenty stored connection in my ftp client on FTP Tools. How do I move these connections from one PC to another, like bookmarks?

    Your FTP logins are stored with your other saved passwords. This article describes the files that that store this data: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]]. If you only need to move data in one direction, you could copy the two files and then drop them into your active settings (Firefox profile) folder on the second PC to replace the existing ones.
    To easily access your active settings folder, use:
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    If you need to merge data between the two profiles, I don't know whether you can do that without an add-on. In theory Sync should do it, but... I'm not sure I trust Sync yet. Backups definitely would be recommended before trying it.
