Need Help with VPN and 10.5 Server

I am at my wits end trying to get my VPN set-up on my X-serve running 10.5 server. Here is what I have for a set-up.
I have set-up my X-Serve as a Standard Server install.
I have put "pinholes" in my router using the following port info:
1701 UDP L2TP - Mac OS X Server VPN service
1723 TCP PPTP - Mac OS X Server VPN service
When I try to log-in remotely, it says it is connecting and then comes back with "The Connection has failed. Please verify your settings and try again." I know my my log-in and password is correct.
Any help or direction at all would be VERY much appreciated. I am completely out of ideas after trying for a week. Thanks!

hi,
i've opened ports 47/all (called GRE), 50/all (called ESP), 1701/L2TP, 500/VPN and 4500/IKE-NAT when using L2TP for VPN. i'm not sure if 47 and 50 are related to VPN or IChat, but i guess it's VPN
the other ports you mentioned might be related to PPTP for VPN which you actually don't need. try restrict them to the ports i listed when using L2TP, try and if it doesn't work, open 47 and 50. it is important that these two ports support both TCP and UDP because actually they are not TCP nor UDP because they use something similair like ICMP (used for ping).

Need help with trim and null function

Hi all,
I need help with a query. I use the trim function to get the first three characters of a string. How do I write my query so if a null value occurs in combination with my trim to say 'Null' in my results?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. What am I doing wrong?
SELECT trim(SUBSTR(AL1.user_data_text,1,3)),NVL
(AL1.user_data_text,'XX')
FROM Table
I want the XX to appear in the same column as the
trim.The main thing you're doing wrong is not formatting your code. The solution may become obvious if you do.
What you're saying is:
SELECT trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
,       NVL ( AL1.user_data_text, 'XX' )
FROM    Tablewhich makes it clear that you're SELECTing two columns, when you only want to have one.
If you want that column to be exactly like the first column you're currently SELECTing, except that when that column is NULL you want it to be 'XX', then you have to apply NVL to that column, like this:
SELECT NVL ( trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
            , 'XX'
FROM    Table

Need help with jdbc and cursor

Hi all,
I know I can specify a cursor to be scrollable with
cs = conn.prepareCall("{call server.procedure(?,?)}",ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
but my problem is that this cursor is returning 2 oracle cursors and I need to move inside those but I cannot find the way to do it.
cs.registerOutParameter(2, OracleTypes.CURSOR);
rs = (ResultSet) cs.getObject(2); //this is the first cursor and is scrollable
rs1= (ResultSet) rs.getObject(1); //this is one of the cursors inside the cursor and I cannot make it scrollable
Thanks for the help,
A.

well, I didn't really check if the first one was scrollable since I didn't need it to be, but it seems that Oracle does not support scrollable cursors as out parameter of a stored procedure...
anybody has a workaround?

Noob needs help with Logic and Motu live setup.

Hello everyone,
I'm a noob / semi noob who could use some help with a live setup using 2 MOTU 896HD's and Logic on a Mac.
Here's the scenario:
I teach an outdoor marching percussion section (a drumline and a front ensemble of marimbas and vibes). We have an amazing setup of live sound to amplify and enhance the mallet percussion. There is a yamaha PA system with 2 subs and 2 mains which are routed through a rack unit that processes the overall PA balance. I'm pretty sure that the unit is supposed to avoid feedback and do an overall cross-over EQ of the sound. Other then that unit, we have 2 motu896hd units which are routed via fire-wire. I also have a coax cable routing the output of the secondary box to the input of the primary box (digital i/o which converts to ADAT in (i think?)..?
Here's the confusion:
There are more then 8 inputs being used from the ensemble itself, so I need the 16 available inputs to be available in Logic. I was lead to believe that the 2nd motu unit would have to be sent digitally to the 1st motu unit via coax digital i/o. Once in Logic, however, I cannot find the signal or any input at all past the 8th input (of the 1st unit).
Here's the goal:
All of my performers and inputs routed via firewire into a Mac Mini running OSX and Logic pro.
I want to be able to use MainStage and run different patches of effects / virt. instruments for a midi controller keyboard / etc.
I want to be able to EQ and balance the ensemble via Logic.
Here's another question:
How much latency will I be dealing with? Would a mac mini with 4gb of ram be able to handle this load? With percussion, I obviously want the sound as latency free as possible. I also, however, want the flexibility of sound enhancement / modification that comes with Logic and the motu896hd units.
Any help would be REALLY appreciated. I need the routing assistance along with some direction as to whether or not this will work for this type of application. I'm pretty certain it does, as I have spoken with some other teachers in similar venues and they have been doing similar things using mac mini's / logic / mainstage / etc.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

You'll definitely want to read the manual to make sure the 896HDs are connected together properly. ADAT is a little tricky, it's not just a matter of cabling them together. Go to motunation.com if you need more guidance on connecting multiple devices. Beyond that initial hookup, here are a couple of quick suggestions:
1. Open CueMix and see if both devices are reported there. If not, your connections aren't correct. Be sure to select 44.1kHz as your sample rate, otherwise you are reducing the number of additional channels. For instance at 88.2kHz you would get half the additional channels via ADAT.
2. You may need to create an aggregate device for the MacBook to recognize more than the first 896HD. Lots of help on this forum for how to do that. Again, first make sure you have the 896HDs connected together properly.
3. As for latency with Mainstage on the Mini, no way to know until you try it. Generally MOTU is fantastic for low latency work but Mainstage is a question mark for a lot of users right now. If the Mini can't cut the mustard, you have a great excuse to upgrade to a MacBook Pro.

Need help with mac and java

Hi, I'm trying to develop an application on a Machintosh OSX 10.2.8 machine.
I'm having a herrendous time trying to get quicktime to work on it.
I've somehow managed t oget 1.3.1 and QTJava.jar to work together but now i need encryption, however that requires 1.4+
Now 1.4.1 doesnt work with quicktime
I've downloaded the latest software upgrades but Ive got no idea how to set up quicktime to work with java 1.4.1
Now to add on top of that mac reports it can use AES encryption. this is from source code ripped striaght from this website.
But first and foremost can anyone, annyonee help me out with setting up 1.4.1 with quicktime?
Thank you

If you need encryption with Java 1.3.1, download the JCE from either Sun (http://java.sun.com/products/jce/) or Bouncy Castle (http://www.bouncycastle.org/).
Cheers,

Need help with GetStringUTFChars and JAB

Please help,
I want to use the JNI function GetStringUTFChars with JAB (Java Access Bridge), without having to call JNI_CreateJavaVM as no matter what I do, JNI_CreateJavaVM fails. I have JAB successfully loaded, and I have used GetAccesibleFromHWND to get a valid jobect. Is there any way I can go from the jobect to use GetStringUTFChars?
If not, is the source code availabe for GetStringUTFChars? OR is there an Windows/C++ equivalent available?

I need help with CSS and floating

Okay, I know I need to get up on CSS and get rid of tables in
my sites.
However, I'm running up against a problem, and after banging
my head
against it for a while, I realize I need help. I've stripped
this down
so as to only show the area where I'm having difficulty.
What I want is a page that has everything down the center,
taking up no
more than 750 pixels and no more than 550 pixels of width. No
problem there.
After the header and the top content, I'd like to have two
"columns",
each in it's own separately-colored box. I would like the
right-side
column/box to be a static size, while the left-side
column/box sizes
dynamically.
Where I'm having problems is that when one column is boxed,
it's fine,
but whenever I wrap each column in its own box, the
fixed-size box
either jumps below or above the other box (depending on which
one has
been floated and which order the div's appear in the code).
Here are the links:
CSS:
http://www.afice.org/stylesheet/floatmestyles.css
ex 1:
http://www.afice.org/floatme1.html
ex 2:
http://www.afice.org/floatme2.html
Before sending, I took a look again, just to see if I was
missing
anything. I did notice that it doesn't seem to be that the
box is
jumping down so much as it is that it's getting written over.
Anyway, sorry for the long-winded explanation. I hope I've
managed to
explain what I'm trying to do well enough that someone can
tell me where
I'm going wrong.
Thanks,
--Kevin

Do you want something like this:
http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/spointfooter.htm
You will need to look at the code to see how it was done.
Otherwise, there are different examples here on Pauls' site:

Hey guys i need help with facetime and i am ready to blow up!

I got some many ppl telling me that i have to pay for facetime! My dad got iphone 4 and we live in canada (calgary) My brother lives in Australia and i have mac! Is facetime free to talk to him! Telus is telling us that it will cost my dad 2 dollars a min then Rogers is telling us it is free! I need help cause if both have wifi it should be free! We want to know! Please let me know! thanks! I am ready to blow up here LOL!

All FaceTime calls are over WiFi, thus they are "free", unless you're using a WiFi hotspot that charges for its use.

Need help with backup and clean install

Need Assistance with G5
Background
I'm an inexperienced Mac user with a G5, twin 2.0 gig processors and 1.5
gig ram. The OS is v10.3.6. It is the latest OS that will not slow down
internet (Safari/Mail) applications. Anything newer has really slowed internet applications down big time.
Current Problem
I've probably messed up my hard drive by switching back and forth
(archive/install) from newer to present OS. I now have corrupted data and
while my Mac is useable, several things do not work (disk utility, printing
and possibly more). I have a mixture of new and older versions of
these applications/utilities in my OS.
Going Forward
I believe I need to wipe out my hard drive and do a clean install. I also have a Mac mini which I can use (I believe) for backup via firewire.
Backup
Is everything I need to backup in the "User" folder? My spouse and I have
separate accounts and a shared account on the same Mac, with a total of 8.5 gig of data, mostly photo's and music. We want to save that and the usual preferences and favorites/bookmarks/addresses/email, etc. It would be nice if all I had to do was drag the user folder into the target drive.
I'd appreciate any assistance. I have more questions which I'll get to later, but I need to start somewhere.
Thanks all
Mac G5

Backing up your Users folder will save everything in all the accounts on the computer including pictures, music, preferences, etc. as long as they were kept in that folder.
If you have File Vault turned on you should turn it off. The "correct" procedure for transferring to your Mac Mini is as follows:
1. Turn both computers off. Connect them together with a Firewire cable.
2. Boot the G5 into Target Disk Mode.
3. Then boot the Mac Mini normally. The G5's hard drive should be present on the Mini's Desktop.
4. Create a new folder on the Mini and name it something appropriate like G5 User Backup. Drag the Users folder on the G5 into this new folder on the Mini.
After the transfer completes you should verify that everything has been transferred and is there in the folder.
5. Drag the G5's hard drive icon from the Desktop to the Trash or CTRL-click on its icon and select Eject from the contextual menu.
6. Shutdown the G5 and remove the Firewire cable connecting the two computers.
You can now proceed to fix the G5. Because you are planning to erase the hard drive I would like to suggest you do an extended format to prep the hard drive properly for your restoration:
1. Boot from your Panther Installer Disk. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
You can then quit Disk Utility and return to the installer. Now proceed to reinstall OS X. Be sure you set up your accounts with the exact same usernames and passwords as you used before.
Once you have completed your reinstallation on the G5 you can restore your Users folder from the Mac Mini.
1. Shut down both computers. Connect them with a Firewire cable.
2. Boot the G5 into Target Disk Mode.
3. Boot the Mac Mini normally. G5's hard drive should appear on the Mini's Desktop.
4. Open a Finder window on the G5's hard drive and drag the Users folder to the Trash (don't delete yet.)
5. Now copy the saved Users folder from the Mac Mini to the G5 (only the Users folder, not the folder in which you stored it.)
6. Eject the G5's hard drive from the Mini's Desktop and shut down the G5.
7. Disconnect the Firewire cable.
Now restart the G5. If all worked well it should start up normally and you should find everything normal in your accounts.
There is one potential problem in all the above. All your account preferences are contained in the Users folder. If you have any corrupted preferences, they will still be corrupted and may continue to cause problems. If that's the case you may need to trash the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder's contents. Hopefully, this won't be the case, but you should be aware of the possibility.
If eveything is working normally you can empty the Trash and delete the contents. Same on the Mac Mini.

Need help with buttons and fading clips

howdy,
I have 3 buttons on a stage that play 3 different movies.
While no button is pressed, there is a looping video on the stage
playing. When a button is pressed, that looping movie needs to fade
out and fade in the movie that button calls for. I have attached
script but it isn't working at all. Not sure where to go from here.
thanks for your help.

Hello again,
Now I'm completely lost. Where should I add that code in your
last post?
thanks.

Is there anything wrong with this config?
