Moving from nDS 4.1 on Windows NT 4 to Windows 2000

Having a problem moving from nDS 4.1 on NT 4.0 SP6 to Windows 2000.
First of all nDS 4.1 will not install on Windows 2000. It fails.
So I installed iDS 5.0 and everything went fine. Then I tried to import
users and it failed because of different schema. So then I tried to import
the schema. That didn't work or more accurately, I did not know how to do
it since iDS uses ldif files not conf files.
So I download and installed nDS 4.13. It worked and I moved the conf files
to import the schema and imported the users. Then the admin server service
quit working. The ipaddress had been changed, so I changed it back with
ldapmodify. Now the admin server service works, But I cannot connect with
the console to the server to make any changes.
Please help.
IPlanet actually emailed me after I downloaded iDS 5.0 to offer assistance
getting it setup. So I emailed then back and explained my problems and
asked specifically what versions of DS are supported on Windows 2000. They
now don't return my phone calls and every time I get through to them they
pass me off to a new tech who says he will get back to me. Of course they
never do.
So my question is how should I go about moving our Directory that is
currently running nDS 4.1 on Windows NT 4.0 to Windows 2000. What version
should I run. How should I move the directory. I am unfamiliar with the
replication options and how to use them if that would be the best solution.
Thanks in Advance.

I think DS 4.12 or later supports Win2K.
After you installed DS 5.0, you should have run migration. This would have migrated all of your config and schema and data from your 4.x server to your 5.0 server.
"The ipaddress had been changed, so I changed it back with ldapmodify." Ouch. Exactly what did you do? It is very tricky to change the admin server port number and get the console to work again.
"replication options"? Do you mean migration?
What is the desired outcome of this process? To have a DS 5.0 running on Win2K?

  • Form button does not work when a program is moved from Windows 8.2 to Windows 7

    Hi,
    I have a few Excel programs which use the ODBC to get data from Access and which have macros which writes data to an external program, MYOB.
    When the macros tries to write the data to MYOB it fails if I am not running the program in administrator mode.   It seems that Windows 8.2 has a different level of security than Windows 7 and must be run in administrator mode for the ODBC to work. 
    I have had issues after running the program in administrator mode (testing) if I simply do a save (in administrator mode) and then send it to the customer.   The issue is that it just will not work on the customer's site.   I have gotten
    around this in the past by saving any changes, going back out of excel, loading the program again (not in administrator mode) and saving it - before sending it to the customer.   This worked until now.
    For some unknown reason, the last time I sent a program to the customer and carried out the above process, the program stopped working.   Originally I thought that the macro just wouldn't work on windows 7, but eventually found that it is the form button
    that will no longer work when the program is moved from 8.2 to 7.
    Does anyone know why there is an incompatibility between 8.2 and Windows 7 and what I should be doing to ensure that my programs work in my customers environment(windows7)?
    In the meanwhile, I have changed the form button to an activex button and the program works fine in both environments.
    Thanking you in advance,

    there is some OP report after Windows update Dec 2014 macro stop responding ( I cant confirm if this is also related to your issue) its because security update for Office maybe conflict with the active-x that you are installed
    try to
    Close Excel
    Start Windows Explorer.
    Select your system drive (usually C:)
    Use the Search box to search for *.exd
    Delete all the files it finds.
    Start Excel again
    Open that file and save it, and try open at Windows 7
    to get more detail about this issue, I suggest also contact Office forum
    this case also will be solve installing kb3025036
    good luck

  • I'm moving from windows notebook to MacBook Pro. When teaching I use a USB quality pointer device and want to know it the MacBook works with it

    Greetings,
    After using only Windows computers at work and home our company leadership now allows us to purchase Mac Pro Books if we desire. I am VERY excited!!!
    Both of our sons work as engineers in Silicon Valley and will not purchase anything but Macs for years.  Both son's schedules hinder me to get the answers quickly from them so I am seeking advice from you.
    I love the idea of finally getting a Mac but have some questions and need to find a source to answer my questions before I send in the request for the new computer. If any of you could respond to these "beginner" Mac questions it would be wonderful.
    1. I teach a large variety of classes using Powerpoint style presentations. I own a very nice wireless USB remote that I use to move between slides.  Will the ProBook allow me the ability to use my remote? If so is there anything I need to know to make it work?
    2. What are the tradeoffs of the 13 inch ProBook versus the 15 inch model?
    3. What external devices/equipment should I plan to have available to be effective in an office environment?
    4. In moving from Windows to Mac what is the best was to bridge the learning curve so I can become effective as quickly and effectively as possible?
    I am very excited to make this change and your advice would be so appreciated.
    Blessings,
    David

    David,
    Have you checked the Web site of the manufacturer of your wireless USB remote, to see if their product supports MacBook Pros?
    In general, the 13-inch MacBook Pro has less powerful hardware than the 15-inch model. A detailed comparison can be found in the right-hand column of the table here.
    Which external devices/equipment do you currently have  to be effective in an office environment with your Windows computer? The list is likely to be similar with a computer that runs OS X.
    Which applications do you currently depend upon under Windows? That might be the best guide to providing advice on how to best adapt to OS X.

  • Moving from XP to Windows 7 - How to I take contacts?

    Going round the twist here!
    I am moving everything to a fresh install of Windows 7. Currently my iPhone syncs my contacts to Windows Address Book in WinXP.
    However Windows 7 does not have an Address Book, so how do I go about keeping all my contacts when I install iTunes onto Windows 7 and sync my iPhone to it?
    Thanks.

  • Have you moved from Unix/Oracle to Windows/SQL Server

    I am looking for people that have moved from Unix/Oracle to Windows/SQL Server...
    Would you do it again ?
    Did you save money ?
    Were you using Zones to virutalize on Unix ?
    Did you gain or loose overall Performance ?
    Have you had to perform a recovery on SQL Server ? 
    Have you done a recovery in Oracle ?
    Were you using Rman ?
    Which worked better ?
    We are going through an analysis of does it really make sense, save money and effect performance to move from a strong unix/oracle environment to a MS/SQL environment.
    THanks Rob
    [email protected]

    Hi,
    All our R/3 legacy systems are Windows/Oracle.
    All the new systems (BW, SRM, CRM, XI) are Windows/MSSQL.
    It was an order from the management to make the switch because of the high prices of Oracle licences.
    The official motto is now Oracle on Unix only and SQL server on Windows only.
    We get the same level of performance as with Oracle, but we, old SAP Oracle grumpy admins, are much more comfortable with Oracle admin than SQL server admin.
    imho, SQL server may seem simplier but it is much easier to look under the hood whith Oracle.
    We have to reinvent the wheel and it's kind of frustrating but we will cope with it...
    I would say that SQL server is not a good choice for BW usage because there is a lot more litterature on BW database optimisation for Oracle than MSSQL.
    The official SAP class does not speak at all about SQL server but has several chapters on Oracle...
    Regards,
    Olivier

  • After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

    After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

    I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

  • HT1515 I have moved from windows to mac and had to reset my airport. I am trying it to join the existing wireless network. the process ends in an unexpected error. The ethernet connection seems to work OK

    I have moved from windows to mac and had to reset my airport express. After the reset I enter the name of the existing network, name the base unit, enter its password twicw and select additional options as join the existing network. It comes back with a screen asking for the name of the base unit and password. Aftre which it starts cycling between "waiting for airport express", "connecting to 'network name'" and ends with an error message. When I try to set up using ethernet cable evrything works but I need wireless (it worked OK just hours ago). Any advice?
    Thank you

    Hello, vgafromva.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • I have just moved from using Windows all my life to Mac OS Lion. My accounting software "Tally" does not run on it. Please help !

    I have just moved from using Windows all my life to buying a Mac Book Pro running on OS Lion. But my accounting softwares Tally 7.2 and Tally 9 do not run on it.
    I just learnt that the software platform of Tally Accounting softwares are specific to Windows only.
    I need to run the accounting software, Mail and several spread sheets and documents at the same time.
    Is there some way I can do this on the Mac Lion OS?
    Help solicited !

    Yes, you can share files across a network as long as the network server is setup so your Mac can connect to it. See Mac OS X 10.7 Help: Connect to shared computers and file servers on a network, Mac OS X 10.7 Help: Connect your Mac directly to a Windows computer, Mac OS X 10.7 Help: Connect to a Mac from a Windows computer, and Mac OS X 10.7 Help: Connect to shared computers and servers using a network address.

  • Need Help moving from mac to Windows

    I did search the forum, but could not find it, so I thought I will ask.
    I have to move from PowerBook to a Windows XP machine. (I see lots of threads moving from mac to windows but not otherway around).
    How do I move the iTunes music. I want to keep the ratings, don't want to redo the ratings for 1000+ songs.
    If it was previously asked and answered, please point me towards that thread.

    Folks,
    Sorry for the redundant post. I had problem doing this, and was able to make it work. The trick was renaming the file iTunes Library to iTunes Library.itl (with the extension).
    Once I did that, it works well.
    Thanks

  • We just moved from a Windows server to a Mac server with our Macs -problem!

    We just moved from a Windows server to a Mac server with our Mac Network!!!
    Problem:
    Now, when we create files from our personal computers, no one else can write them. We can all read these files, but when we make changes we have to save a version! This wasn't happening on the Windows server, so I can only guess that it's a setting on the Mac? (G4 Laptop running 10.4.5)
    Can anyone help me figure out what setting needs to be changed?
    Thank you very much in advance!
    -Alex

    This is normal behavior, and is a result of the POSIX umask. Newly created files have their POSIX permissions (owner, group, and everyone fields) set such that only the owner can read and write.
    The best way to solve this problem is to use an ACL entry to define desired permissions for a folder, specifying inheritance (e.g., permissions apply to this folder and any newly-created files or folders inside of that).
    Please see my ACL Tips version 2 link for more information, including a more detailed explanation of POSIX and ACL permissions and how they work together: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1732788

    I am so glad to hear about your success. As you are new to the Mac environment, I will be glad to help you more.
    You said: "I can't change the setup yet but i have access". I don't understand what you mean about changing the setup! Please let me know more about that.
    I also recommend to use Boot Camp, which allows you to install windows on a partition of your internal hard drive. This has many benefits. First, you can restart your computer and start up in windows. This makes your Mac device a complete windows machine and you gain the most from your hardware when working in Windows. Second, if a problem occures to your Mac OS X, you can restart your machine in Windows and prevent your data from getting lost. Third, you can import the Windows installed on the boot camp partition in to the Mac OS X using VMWare Fusion and work with it as a virtual machine. In this situation, VMWare enables you to work directly with your Windows in the boot camp partition. So it does not create a file package for the virtual machine in OS X.
    Regarding the data safety and reliablity, I strongly recommend using Time Machine. You can also set it up to back up your virtual machines or not. This is possible to set up in the Virtual Machine Preferences Page in VMWare Fusion, or in the Time Machine preferences page in the System Preferences app of OS X.
    Please don't hesitate to ask any other question. I will be glad to help you.

  • Moving from a Windows formatted iPod to a Mac formatted ipod

    First of all, forgive me if this is a repost, as I know I have seen the resolution before, but am unable to find it.
    I currently have an iPod 80GB classic, with about 40GB of music on it. I have recently purchased an iMac and want to move to a MAC formatted ipod. That is, connect and manage the ipod in a MAC environment instead of Windows.
    I also want to back up all my music on the ipod to my MAC itunes library to ensure my music is all in one place.
    Once all is said and done, I want a MAC formatted ipod, and not have lost my music on the ipod by reformatting it.
    Thank in advance.
    How can I accomplish this?

    *I have recently purchased an iMac and want to move to a MAC formatted ipod.*
    You need to restore it in iTunes for Mac
    *I also want to back up all my music on the ipod to my MAC itunes library to ensure my music is all in one place.*
    To copy everything (including purchases)to the Mac there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here (you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well):
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
    Senuti Mac Only (iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    PodView Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    iPodDisk PPC Mac Only (experimental version available for Intel Macs)
    TuneAid Mac only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    Floola Mac & Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
    *Once all is said and done, I want a MAC formatted ipod, and not have lost my music on the ipod by reformatting it.*
    Copy the songs to the Mac first then restore the iPod in iTunes for Mac.

    Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.

  • HT1349 I have just moved from one pc to another.  I had used 5 computers to attach to itunes.  I went in and disabled all 5 of my accounts but cant get the new computer to give me a prompt to authorize this computer.  Any ideas?

    Hellow everyone,
    I have just moved from one PC to another.  They are windows pc's not macintosh.  When i installed itunes on the new computer it stated that I already had 5 devices authrorized for this account.  I did a little reading and went in and deathorized all 5 PC from the account as I am sure it was a couple pcs ago and a few iphones.   When I try and go in and authorize an account I cant see anywhere where there is a prompt to authorize the new PC.  I go into store and all it says is that there are no devices associated to this account.  What I would like to do is associate my new PC and my iphone to this account and hopefully restore from the cloud all of my music and programs. 
    Any idea what I am doing wrong here or how I can resolve this. Thanks in advance.
    Respectully.
