Need to be able to join a windows network

Hi All
I have an Ibook runing 10.4.5, and i need to be able to get some data off a windows server which has it own windows network. How easy is it to link up to the server, do i just plug my laptop into its network and connect as you would to an xserve etc, using afp. Can any one tell me if this is correct or if its not what do i have to do.
Thanks in advance
Cottie

I am assuming the network is using DHCP. If however the network requires MAC address authentication then you would need to talk to the network admin.
Plug your laptop into the network then from the Finder choose
Go-->Connect to server
use the syntax
smb://serveraddress

  • Clients not able to join more 256 nos

    Hi
    We have using wireless controller CISCO 2125 with 8 nos LWAP 1252, including AP's getting the IP from windows DHCPserver (172.29.70.0/23), when clients reaches 256 nos in controller , then further not able to join in wireless network.
    DHCP vendor class or user class will solve this issue. pl guide me .
    thanks
    Karthik

    Well, it's totally expected then as it's the maximum amount of clients supported by the 2125.
    If you have that amount of client you should look into having more APs and a more powerful WLC. That limit is not just there for marketing purpose. It looks like your network is under-powered compared to its real usage.

  • How to connect to windows network

    Is there a way to connect your iPad and/or iPhone 5 to a Windows network?  If so how?

    Hi, Charlie -
    I'm not insulted at all! I appreciate the dialog.
    Here's what I can tell you. I checked the airport utility and it indicates specifically that the Airport Express is being used to "Extend a wireless network." It's not connected to the Airport Extreme by any cable.
    Given the difference in indicated signal strength on my MacBook Air (I'm using it now and it's 3 feet away from the Mac Pro), I've got full strength on the Air but when I try to connect the Windows machine it indicates only 1 bar/unit of strength. I'm guessing that it's not seeing the Express (extended) but only the Extreme that's much farther away. I'm in the basement at one end of the house and the Extreme is on the second floor at the other end of the house. When I boot the Mac Pro to OS X I'm able to join the extended network. Hmmmmm...

    Not sure if any of the alternatives to Office (word) for Mac are near the feature set you require.
    There are a few listed here at this page, in some ways aren't exactly like Office or Word; the feature you seek may (or may not) exist. I'd try & see about neooffice compatibility...

  • Do SCCM clients need to be domain joined for Windows Patch Deployments

    Hi,
    We have SCCM 2012 R2 deployed in an environment with both workgroup and domain joined machines. Currently only the domained joined machines have the SCCM client installed. We were thinking of bringing patching into SCCM rather than WSUS but were wondering
    if we install the SCCM client on workgroup machines do they need to be domain mebers to work or do they just need to be able to resolve the SCCM server?BAsically, I'm looking for confimation that we can patch non-domain joined machines via SCCM.
    Thanks,
    Simon

    Here's a nice blog post that adds some gotcha and additional detail:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2014/07/01/managing-workgroup-clients-in-system-center-2012-configuration-manager.aspx
    Ultimately, ConfigMgr doesn't care if systems are domain joined or not but there are some nuances and caveats that must be accounted for.

  • Frequency display window needs to be able to reference IEC and user supplied reference curves

    Hi Guys,
    the frequency display window displays white noise as a horisontal line.
    Theoretically it is fine, but in the context of audio production it is "less
    fine".
    It needs to be able to reference pink noise as well as user supplied
    reference curves, be it plotted or in table form, table would be fine for
    me, but plotted splines would fit the intuitive gui.
    That saves the incredibly wasteful step of first adding a biasing frequency
    compensation to audio prior to anylyzing it so as to get a display of the
    audio that is actually useful in the context of audio production and
    restoration rather than acoustics.
    Kind regards

    popUp2 is a javascript function included in one of the .js files referenced on every Apex page.
    It is defined as popUp2(URL,width_of_popup_page,height_of_popup_page). Referencing this function instead of calling window.open() should solve the problem you were having with the calling page's text being set to [object].
    If you want only to have to only administer the URL that is popped up in one place you could, as you suggest, use the navbar or, alternatively, you may want to look at using a shortcut to store the URL value (Application > Shared Components > User Interface > Shortcuts).

  • Is it possible to join a Windows server domain?

    Hi, We have a mixtures of Windows and Mac clients at school. We have recently had installed a Windows Server 2003. The windows all work well - but other than as a file server can I expect more from the macs? Is it possible to join the windows domain - and log in as different users so that different network drives are mounted at log in? Thanks in advance!

    Yes. The server does not have to be running Services for Macintosh.
    If the server is running Active Directory, you'll have to work with the windows admin people to create the AD account.
    Otherwise, you'll just hae access to the shares.
    On the Mac, I think the AD options are under Directory Services.
    To map drives at login, the easiest way is to write an Applescript, save it as an application, and add it as a login item.
    I can't recall the exacy syntax, but for each drive, the script should look something like this:
    Tell Application "finder"
    try
    mount "smb:\\windows.server.ip.address\sharename"
    end try
    You will get a user id/pw/domain prompt for each share.
    For e-mail, assuming they use Exchange, you'll need exchange server 2000 SP 2 or higher with OWA, IMAP, and LDAP active on the mail server to be able to access mail through Entourage or Apple mail.
    Otherwise, you'll be limited to Outlook Web Access.
    Printing: Standard IP,LPR, or appletalk printer setup.

  • Need to be able to use both SSO and manual login to the WAS

    Hi,
    we are currently on NW7 SP20 (SPS18) but we are still using 3.x queries and web applications extensively. We have SSO enabled on all systems and that works fine. However, this does not give us the possibility to test for example roles by logging on as a test user. How can we keep SSO but also allow us to log on as a different user to the WAS when running queries or web templates.
    Typical test scenario:
    1) Open WAS3.x or Query Designer 3.x and log on as a test user
    2) Close all browser windows
    3) Execute web template or query in browser
    4) At this point SSO takes over and logs the tester on as him/herself. What we would like here is to have the option of either logging on manually /by for example clicking a log on button) or using SSO (say by not clikcing the login button within 5 seconds or clikcing a SSO button). How can we get this to work?
    Kind regards
    Kenneth Eriksen

    Actually, we want both...
    Most of the time, SSO is desired, but when testing role changes etc we need to be able to log on with a test user.
    The desired scenario:
    When you try to run a web report/query and have not logged on, the system should offer you two options:
    1) Manual log on
    2) Single sign on
    If you wait for a specified time (say 3 seconds) without selecting an option then SSO is used automatically (to avoid having to select SSO every time you need it).
    If you click manual log on then you should be prompted for a username/password and be logged on as the specified user.
    Can this be done at all?
    Kind regards
    /Kenneth

  • HELP! I need to be able to remove power from a PXI chassis and replace a card without rebooting the whole system

    I do not have particulars on the controller, but I am sure it's an NI chassis
    and NI regular controller that has a serial cable leading back to the PC.
    I am making this PXI rack into a debug rack for instrument cards,
    so I need to be able to remove power from just the PXI chassis
    and then replace the card with another one
    or the same one and then turn the power back on and restart a
    diagnostic test on the card WITHOUT
    having to reboot the PC.
    Is there a PCIe bridge setup that would allow me to do this?
    Is there software that I need that can accomplish this?

    Yes
    The Chassi is a NI PXI 1045
    and the controller is a NI-PXI-8331
    Let me re-enumerate my requirements:
    Background:
    I have a number of NI cards as well as other manufactured cards in the system.
    One of these cards in the NI system is considered to be a UUT.
    That is, I am using the NI card cage system and other cards in the system to test a CARD
    during a manufacturing test of said UUT CARD.
    The UUT uses a PLX 9030 for it's PCI interfacing.
    This UUT is not designed for hot swap, and I do not bieleve it is plug and play.
    Requirement:
    1. I need to be able to shut off the chassis and remove the UUT when the test finishes, replace the tested UUT
    with a unknown UUT, re-apply power and then test the new UUT WITHOUT having to reboot the PC.
    I have tried several things, such as disabling the PCIe busses in the windows control panel, and then removing power
    replacing the UUT with the next one, re-applying chassis power and then re-enabling the bus and SOMETIMES it works.
    I need a very robust way to do this.
    I also bought a CHROMA PXI-52906-E extender card with bus switches on it, so that I can remove power to the UUT
    without shutting off the chassis. The card is supposedley designed so that when power is re-applied to the UUT, the necessary
    signals to boot the PXI PCI interface is conducted, but I think something else has to be written to the card's PCI registers.
    I am by no means an expert in PCI/PXI, 
    but I seem to have exhausted all of my reserach online in how to meet my requirements.
    Perhaps there is a way for the NI8331 controller to capture PCI configuration data to the card's on system boot,
    and then "replay it" to my UUT after I re-apply power to the UUT?
    Or perhaps PLX makes such a tool?
    Any ideas?
