Mixing 10.4 and 10.5 clients with 10.5 Server
This is the question of a neophite, but in looking through documentation and these boards I do not see a definitive answer to the following:
I am starting the process of installing a 10.5 server in an office environment that to date has consisted of standalone desktop clients. Some of these machines are running 10.5, others are still running 10.4. This is a low-budget operation, so we'd like to keep it that way unless absolutely necessary. I am trying to understand how the issue of preferences, etc. will work once users are logging into a server with centralized home directories. In particular, if a single user sometimes logs in from a 10.4 based client and sometimes logs in from a 10.5 based client, is there a version conflict between preferences saved in ~/Library, or any other files stored there? Is there inherent backwards and forwards compatibility so it is not an issue? Or, are these preferences separated somehow within the home directory tree? Or, does it blow up in the user's face?

Yes you want to setup an Open Directory.
Server Admin -> Open Directory currently says the Role is Standalone Directory. Is that OK or should it be an Open Directory Master?
Try these things Open Terminal on the Server and type "sudo changeip -checkhostname" without the quotes
If that all comes back good then DNS should be fine
It was fine.
On the client machine in a local administrator account open terminal and type "host yourserver.dnsname"
the name you type there is the one that got returned from the changeip -checkhostname command
the ip address that it give you back should be the IP address of the server (either a 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x) iff all is good jump down 1 step to the Directory Utility step below
Reported an error.
if it is not then
Open system preferences on the client and select network then in the Ethernet or Airport whatever one you use in the DNS Sever section type the servers IP address (10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x)
Done. Now the "host yourserver.dnsname reports the correct IP address.
Open Directory Utility and delete whatever server is in the list and add a new one using the DNS name ie. yourcomany.private not an ip address
RESTART the machine
Here's where it fails, same as before. I get the error:
There was no response from server.stpeterspress.private. Please check that the address you entered is correct.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Oracle 7 Client with Oracle 9 Server
Hello,
I was wondering what are the advanatges of using Oracle 7 client with Oracle 9 Server versus using Oracle 9 Client with Oracle 9 server.Some years ago I used 7.3 Client with 9i DB, and I don't remember of particular problems, but I'm speaking of Sql*Plus only. Are there specific problems ?
Of course the best thing is to install one 9i Client (did you already do it ?) : if there are same problems, then that's not compatibility issue.
And what are advantages of using 9 Client with 9 server other than 7 is no longer supported.You're sure you won't have compatibility problems.

Probelm client auth from jsse client with open ssl server
I tried to connect jsse client with a openssl server.. with clientAuth
This is what i did ..
Using openssl req comand i created a X509 certificate for server and imported the same to java keystore..
The communication works fine without client authentication.
To enable client auth i create client private/public key pair using keytool and exported the public key to a file client.public. and used it in open ssl server .
This is how i invoke the client ..
java
-Djavax.net.debug=all
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=cacerts
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit
-Djavax.net.private -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password EchoClient
After which i get following error in server
SSL3 alert write:fatal:handshake failure
SSL_accept:error in SSLv3 read client certificate B
SSL_accept:error in SSLv3 read client certificate B
ERROR

The client debug says it is recieving a certificate request.. what could be the problem.. can anybody help...i also have that problem. I was trying to configure SSL in apache in Win XP machine, but this error occurs. Is there anyone, who can help on it?

Managing 10.4 clients with 10.5 Server
Before I jump in....any feedback on managing 10.4 clients with 10.5 server (will post the vice-versa in the 10.4 server forum) from those who are doing it currently?
Thanks,
kI checked out the link you mentioned. It's really dealing w/ managing the client. I'm have weird issues w/ clients logging in. Today I had a grade level try to log in. Ten of the computers would let that grade level in, two would not. Of the Ten computers approx 5 wouldn't let them log in the first time, but once they were restarted they were able to log in. All of the computers are on a wired network as well as a wireless backup. Of the two that would not let them login I had just restored one and set the settings up the same as the others.
I'll be damned, this is the weirdest I have had with Apple client management. -
Win 8 and 8.1 client showing shared printer server as offline
Hi,
we have a problem with our print environment (HP and Ricoh printers).
We have some Windows 8 and 8.1 clients and a Windows Server 2008 R2 printserver.
Windows 8 and 8.1 is showing the printers as offline. Its seems the problem described here ->
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2713128
We already installed the fix on the server but this didn't resolve the issue.
Maybe somebody have the same issues and an alternate solution for this?
Best regardsHi,
Thanks for posting in the forum.
So far, there's no fix for Windows 8. Since you have tried the hotfix you mentioned without any help, please also try to install this update to see if it could help.
Update rollup: Fix printing problems in Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2647753
If the issue persists, please try to refer to the following articles to troubleshoot the issue.

How to: Fix a network printer suddenly showing as offline in Windows Vista
http://blog.rtwilson.com/how-to-fix-a-network-printer-suddenly-showing-as-offline-in-windows-vista/
As it mentioned in the article above, please try to open the print queue dialog and choose “Properties” from the “Printer” menu that it would connect to the printer and bring it back online.
Also, maybe disabling SNMP support for network printers will work.
Here are some similar threads as reference, hope they could help.

Oracle AS and Oracle 9i Client on the same server
Hello,
We have a Window 2000 server with Oracle 9i Client. A number of applications running on this server relies on Oracle 9i Client. Could I install Oracle AS on the same machine without causing any problems to the applications using Oracle 9i client?
Thanks
SlavaOracle software is multi home aware - which means you can install 10 different Oracle products and versions, each in its own unique Oracle Home directory, and switch between and run all 10 different products - even at the same time (assuming sufficient resources on the platform).
You cannot "+consolidate+" different Oracle Homes - it is an unwise thing to do. The Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) has the means to determine when installing a new product, whether or not you have the option to install into an existing Oracle Home.
And with OUI you also have the means to uninstall products in which case you can remove the corresponding Oracle Home from your platform.
Note though that despite multiple homes, certain configuration files will be shared (e.g. +/etc/oratab+ on Unix systems). In such a case you may need to manually update such a configuration file after removing an Oracle Home from your system.
Oracle XE sports its own installer (setup.exe on Windows) - so it does not use OUI. But it is multi-home aware - and can co-exists with other Oracle products in their specific Oracle Homes. -
Interoperability: WSDL-based Java client with MS SOAP server
Does anybody have the experience with a Java client communicating with Microsoft
SOAP server based on the WSDL protocol? My initial experiece shows a lot of problems.
Any information in this regard is appreciated.
ThanksI'm experiencing the same sort of problem too.
I downloaded Bea Web Service Broker in order to test some MS Soap-based web services
before developing some Weblogic EJBs which are to use them, since both of them
(WS Broker and Weblogic EJBs) are said to use the same underlying package of Java
classes to access any web service.
Most of the MS web services won't work with this tool. I have problems with remote
methods that have one or more parameters (the remote methods seem not to get them)
and also with some web services that raise FileNotFoundExceptions from URLs (rather
odd to me) on the Broker, despite the fact those URLs are valid.
Any hint or suggestion will be very appreciated. -
Cisco SPA525g2 Date and time Not Synced with the PBX server
Hello,
We have a couple of SPA525g2 phone connected and registered to our PBX server. We were able to configure 3 extensions on different lines of the phone. However, at times we were encountering issues with the other lines configured on the phone. There are times wherein 1 extension configured on the phone is having one way audio issue, but the other extensions configured on the same phone is working fine. and we have to reboot/reset the phone several times for all the extesions configured on the phone to work.
Also, whenever we reset the phone, the date and time will be way way behind the current date and time, eventhough we have already set the correct date and time before we reset the phone.
How can we resolve the one way audio issue on 1 or 2 extensions of the phone, while the other extensions configured to it is working fine?
How can we make the phone sync the date and time with the PBx server?
Any input and help regarding this issue is greatly appreciated...
Btw, date and time issue not sync with the PBX server is just happening on SPA525g2, we have other phones like SPA303, SPA504, and SPA232D/SPA302D. All other phones' date and time is in sync with the server even though we reset them except SPA525g2.

Windows 7 Client with Windows 2000 server
Hi ,
We are having an application developed in Delphi 6 and hosted in Windows 2000 server(sp4) .Recently we have migrated all our clients to windows 7 from XP. Since then we are getting Access Violation error whenever we are using the application.
We are accessing the application through RDP (Remote Desktop ) from Win 7 Clients to Windows 2000 server.
Could any body help me how to resolve this issue as this is stopping the business.
Regds
Vignesh Krishnan BHi,
As Windows 7 uses NTLM2 by default, please try to set it to “Send LM & NTLM – Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated”
How to:
Open secpol.msc -> local policies -> security options -> Network security: LAN Manager authentication level.

Problems with mixed 10.5 and 10.6 client
We run a small network based on 10.6 server. Most users are network user accounts. I'm seeing strange behaviour when a user moves from a 10.6 client to a 10.5 client. Address book needs to be reimported, spotlight reindexes, iTunes Library needs to be rebuilt etc.
Is anyone seeing the same issues, and are there any workarounds?just to close down an old thread. Mail on 10.6 and 10.5 are not interchangable, neither are the two versions of Address Book. I've had to limit users to either 10.5 or 10.6 macs and will eventually get them all to 10.7, retiring to PPC machines.

Mixing Oracle 7 and Oracle 8i client
I don't know whether this is the right forum for this, but I could not find any other appropriate one.
We have a situation where a customer has Oracle7 client side installed for use by an application. Now we need to install Oracle8i client,for the same customer, for use by a new application. Will this result in some kind of clash? How does one handle this kind of multiple client versions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Instant Client with SQLServer2005 Linked Server
I have successfully installed Instant Client 11.2.0.1.0 on my Windows Server2008. I am able to create an ODBC data source selecting the driver "Oracle in instantclient_11_2". I have also been able to link tables from Access to Oracle. I can logon to Oracle through SQLPlus and execute a query against the Oracle database. I am unsure how to set a Linked Server object in SqlServer 2005. When I use "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" and supply the Product - DBName and Data Source - ODBC data source previously created here is the error I receive:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
"The linked server has been created but failed a connection test. Do you want to keep the linked server?"
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "DB1".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "DB1" returned message "Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 1114 (Oracle in instantclient_11_2).". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)
Thanks!Although the 10.1.0.3 instant client for windows doesn't appear to be "officially out", if I try to download
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/instantclient/instantclient-basic-win32-10.1.0.3.zip and similar files, the files do exist.
Unfortunately this version still can't connect to my corporate Oracle database:
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.0.0, 64 bit - Production
With the Partitioning option
JServer Release 8.1.6.0.0 - Production
Oh well, back to a full client install of Oracle 9i.
Perhaps the official release when its documented on the Instant Client download page will work.

Oracle 8i client with oracle 9i server
hi friends..
i have oracle 8i server and clients..my oracle 8i server crashed.
so i am planning to install oracle 9i server.
will i be able to connect oracle 8i clients on to oracle 9i server? is there any procedure for getting this connection.?
Please helpLook up the documentation for questions like this, under 'backwards compatibility'
You can't configure a client to work with a higher release, it works or it doesn't work.
This one will work.
