Need to keep IP address static for FileMaker access

I have a FileMaker running on a Mac on our LAN using Instant Web Publishing to allow staff to enter data remotely. I have a D-Link 604+ router with port redirection enabled to route traffic to the computer on our network that FileMaker is running on. So, port redirection in set to 192.168.0.2 and all works fine until OS X decides to change the IP address.
I've had a look at DCHP in System Preferences, altered it to manual and entered 192.168.0.2 assuming it will then stay at this IP address, but when I do I loose my internet connection.
Any ideas?

1. OS X does not decide to change the ip address. DHCP server (your router) gives out a lease time for the ip. When the lease ends, or if your mac is off when it ends and you boot your machine, your mac will ask for another ip and be given one. If 192.168.0.2 is in use, it gives next available.
2. Does your router let you define the dhcp scope. That is the block of addresses eligible to be assigned via dhcp?
If yes, assign your mac an ip address OUTSIDE the range of addresses eligible to be assigned via dhcp. Then assign the address manually to your mac, as well assign the dns addresses provided by your isp. Then port forward to the assigned ip.
Example, your router's dhcp scope is 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.100. Assign the mac 192.168.0.102 and port forward to the .102 address.
If no does your router give you the option to have static addressing instead of using dhcp?

Need to download Global address List for Kiosk user while configuring Outlook using POP3 setting

Hi,
We have configured Kiosk User in Outlook using POP3 setting but we are not able to see the GAL in the Outlook Client.
Kindly whether there is options to download the GAL using LDAP query in Exchange Online.
An answer would be of great help.
Regards,
Manoj Issac

Hi Manoj,
POP3 was designed to support offline mail processing. With POP3 protocol in Exchange, client user can send and receive message from Exchange server. But POP3 doesn't offer advanced collaboration features such as calendaring, contacts, Address
Book(GAL) and tasks.
Therefore, the POP3 client can’t access address book. It is recommended to use MAPI protocol to connect to the Exchange server. For external user, the users can also use Outlook Anywhere or OWA to access the mailbox with better Exchange features
experience.

I need to keep certain emails private for only my viewing (kids). I have a folder called Private. Can I require a pw to open it?

Certain emails are for my eyes only. I put them in a local folder called "private." How can I prevent other users from opening that folder either accidentally or on purpose.

I think a much better approach would be to password protect your User account in the Operating System, and set up another account or accounts for the children. You limit their rights to stop them installing ad-hoc and wrecking the computer. You set up a screensaver with password to lock your account when not at the computer.
This add-on: https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html lets you password protect your Thunderbird profile, though it is a weak form of protection. OK for very young children, but older kids will likely see it as a challenge to hack it.
See these:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Protecting_the_contents_of_the_profile_-_mail
And note "Note: You can password protect the contents of the message pane by setting mail.password_protect_local_cache to true using the configuration editor in conjunction with setting a master password in Thunderbird." listed under "medium methods".
…but I'm not sure how you'd lock the pane once you'd unlocked it. You'd probably have to close Thunderbird, so it challenges the user when next run.
As mentioned in the article and the webpage for the add-on, none of these measures guard against your email being stored in plain text and thus visible to anyone browsing the file system. Therefore your best option is to use User Accounts, with logins and passwords, and control access to your own data that way. A user would need admin ("root") privileges to access your data, or be sufficiently knowledgeable to be able to boot with a linux CD or similar.
Storing your email data on a USB stick that you can take away with you.
All of the above require some diligence and vigilance on your part, as you must remeber to lock or close Thunderbird, or logout, or remove the USB device before you leave the computer. A password-protected screen saver and separate User Accounts in the OS provide the closest to an automated protection system.

When I try to send a calendar invite I get the following error ... iCal was unable to send the invitation. To be able to send invitations, you need to create an address card for yourself in Address Book.

I have deleted and recreated "My Card" several times, but iCal is still not recognizing the card. The application was working fine until a few weeks ago. I recently purchased Microsoft Office for Mac but have not installed any other new software. Also checked to make sure my mac software is updated. Help!!!

ebnovotny,
Have you also used Address Book>Card>Make This My Card?
If you have, you could also quit iCal, find the com.apple.ical.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences folder and drag it to the Desktop. Then log out/in or restart and check if your card is recognized.

Do I need to keep the events folder for my FCP X project?

I have a project and its corresponding event folder all on a large backup. However, because of the event folder, this backup is running out of space. Will I still be able to edit my Final Cut project if I get rid of the events folder? My understanding is that when I add an event (no matter where from) into my project, that clip is copied into the project folder anyway. Is this understanding correct?
Many thanks in advance.
Zach

When you import your footage, if you select the options to 'optimise' media or if you choose to copy footage to the Event Folder, of course, you are doubling up your files (or in the case of creating optimised media, the resulting ProRes 422 footage will be between five and eight times larger than the original footage in terms of HD space required).
If you co not choose to copy or optimise on import, FCP X will create tiny alias files in the Event Folder (just select one in Finder to check its size) but if the footage is highly compressed, it will be difficult to edit and play back - so you may have no choice about optimising to ProRes 422.
What footage are you using?

Address translation for intranet access

Hi,
We are using iviews created using in SAP Web Dynpto iView template in SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0.
Resently, we have migarated server from 32 bit machine to 64 bit machine.
After migration We are facing some problem with web dynpro applications.
Web Dynpro applications can be opened from internet but not from intranet.
We want that applications can be accessed from intranet as well as internet.
Address of Web AS specified in system used by web dynpro applications is in the form <proxy hostname>.<domain>.<extension>:<port-SSL> like xyz.company.net:SSL-Port-Number.
Can we define translation rule on WebApplication server for converting address to actual address in the form <server host>.<domain>.<extension>:<port>?
Need your help.

Do I need to get rid of iPhoto for storing/accessing photos on wifi network?

My wife is a food blogger and takes 1000s of pictures a week. Our iPhoto library is close to 400gbs. I just converted her MacBook to an SSD to improve performance and the plan is to just store the most recent month's photos on the MacBook and put the rest on an NAS. We previously tried a USB hard drive to do this and it was much too frustrating for 2 reasons. One, we back up everything via crashplan so it was a pain to always make sure it was plugged into her MB as she would carry it around from the office, living room, kitchen, etc. We also have 3 young boys so portable hard drives plugged into a laptop that is always at arms reach is a recipe for disaster. (Already had one ruined because of that) So we need some sort of wireless option. We understand it may be slower, but we won't access those files very often so it's not a huge deal. Everything I've read about various NASs (Synology, My Cloud, etc.) all say they don't work too well with IPhoto/Apeture. (Currently use iPhoto) So any recommendations on better options? I want something fairly simple for her. What about transitioning to Lightroom or non-Apple to allow easier remote storage and access? Anyone have any success with wireless remote storage/access of iPhoto?
Thanks!

I mean 10 min as i have maintained my "idle instance time out " for the am used as 600s - 10 min.
But when i try doing the same in a sample application created using HR schema , i do not find any data loss.

Hi,
The thing is the following now, using default timings:
FSB 216 = systems seems to run stable. -> Everest shows 6036 MB/s / Latency 48.3 ns
FSB 218 = Had problems playing FEAR.
Now I decided to go for the GC, I've used coolbits to overclock my GC the max it could, using the auto detect.
From the max values I reduced like 20% of the total oc in both memory and GPU. As soon as I tried to test it the screen started to blink.
Now I think I know what happened before, I think the stdby was lowering the clocks and this somehow causes the problem. So it's not the OC itself but the slowing down of the NVIDIA clocks.
I would like to know what would be the limit of my GC, bu right now I'm not in the mood to keep restoring my HD image. Besides, in the last times the crash was demaging other partitions as well, and for these I have no image. I really don't get why the the other partitions are demaged.
Anyway, thanks for the tips.

Email address required for guest access

We have a guest network with a customized web page right now. When the user connects, it asks for their name and logs it to a RADIUS server. However, the user can leave this field blank and press enter to gain access. Is there some way to force a user to enter their name into this page before access can be granted? We don't want to enter a username for each user because there are too many. I found this page and this is what we want to happen (I can't figure out how to do it).
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Mobility/emob41dg/ch10GuAc.html#wp999843
(figure 10-7)
We would like a page like this, but the user MUST enter a name or email before proceeding. No password is required. Down the road, we will attempt to verify the email that they enter, however we are not worried about that now.
Thanks

This is how we have it setup. However, they don't have to enter anything, the entry field can be blank and they can still be granted access. All we want is for them to enter something in this field before they are allowed on.

Keep an object around for the life of the server?

I need to keep some objects around for the entire life of the server.
However would I make sure of that? In other words, how do I prevent them
being gc'd?
TIA,
Bill

Say I have a singleton. If it wasn't in a app server, I can, for example,
have it instaniated in the main and hold the ref there. But in the app
server, wouldn't such a singleton subject to gc since no one is holding the
ref if no one is using it at the moment? If so, the re-instantiation can be
quite expensive. How can I make sure that doesn't happen?

If you hot-deploy your application, but you don't want your mentioned
objects to be destroyed, put the classes in a jar in the server classpath.
If they are in your application's ear or war, they will be destroyed and
re-created on hotdeploy.
If you don't hot-deploy, you don't need to care about.

International Address Version for Spanish Language

Hi,
We need to activate International Address Version for Spanish in our system. But i dont find Spanish language in the available Languages activation Screen. Ony Chinese,thai kind of languages are avialable.
If i want to activate Spanish which is not available in the system, what are all the things do i need to do?
Please provide me some inputs on that..
Thanks

Hi,
in the attachment of SAP note 316331 you will find the following:
Excerpt begin
If you do not want to use the proposed SAP standard international address version keys, you
can also create your own address version keys. You can also use transaction SM30 and
maintenance view V_SAPTSADV to create address version keys in the customer name range
0-9.
Excerpt end
As Spanish (Latin-1) is not typically used as address version key, you need to create a customer specific key ...
But please note that this is a rather unusual approach:
Most customers use address versions for Non-Latin scripts only.
Best regards,
Nils Buerckel

JDBC Sender for MS Access (how to?)

Hi experts,
I would like to read a MS Access DB allocated in an external server, but I am still a bit confused after reading many threads and blogs about this issue.
Most of the people says no driver installation is needed when PI is running on Windows (my case).
I also use to see the following configuration of the CC connecting parameters:
JDBC Driver: jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
Connection: jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (.mdb)};DBQ=//xiserver*/xitemp/db/TestDB.mdb;Uid=yourid;Pwd=yourpwd;
Does it mean it is mandatory the DB file to be in the PI server or is this only for test's purpose? How to update the DB then?
Is it possible to connect to an Access DB in a server different from the PI server as well? i.e. ...DBQ=//<server IP>/path
Many thanks in advance,
Paco

You dont need to install a specific driver for MS Access because it uses the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver which I believe is standard as part of the JRE. For other external databases, for performance reasons or additional technical features you will want to use a type 3 or 4 driver. Explainations of the driver types are in this link.
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-2000/jw-0707-jdbc.html
For connecting to the database you do use the connection details:
JDBC Driver: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
Connection: jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=
<server path visible to XI>\TestDB.mdb;Uid=yourid;Pwd=yourpwd;
You can host the database on any server XI has access to and to update it you would use Native SQL or XML based SQL updates as described in the SAP help.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0f/80243b4a66ae0ce10000000a11402f/frameset.htm

Configure static ip address through time capsule for Filemaker Pro

I am trying to setup a static IP Address for Filemaker Pro Instant Web Publishing.
My current configuration is that I have a Netgear CG3100D modem/router set up to be a modem only. NAT Mode is Disabled (Bridge Mode). This is then connected to my Apple TimeCapsule.
What I am now trying to do is to configure my Windows 7 PC to have a static IP address so that remote devices can access my filemaker pro database.
I have downloaded (and configured?) a tool called no-ip DUC v3.04 that I thought would help solve my connection issues, but I think that I still have a problem with how to open a port number.
When i open my browser and make a connection on my network with the ip address:port number specified through Filemaker I can get a connection. However I can not get a connection remotely.
I know I haven't provided a great deal of information here, but I am happy to provide more, once I konw what information is required.
Any assistance or advice with this would be really appreciated.
Thanks

I'm not too familiar with FileMaker Pro, but if you like to give static IP addresses to anything you would have to use DHCP Reservations using Airport Utility.
Open Airport Utility, select the Time Capsule device, click Manual Setup, navigate the Internet icon, then the DHCP tab, you'll see DHCP Reservations towards the bottom.

I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family. I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases. I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.

I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family. I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases. I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.
I have been reasearching how to do this on the internet, but I haven't found an easy explanation yet. My family is going crazy over each others imessages being sent to others in the family and not being able to use FaceTime because of conflicting email addresses. I have read that if each person gets their own iCloud account, this would work. However, I need to know what to do after I set everyone up with their own iCloud account. Do I make that the default email address to be contacted or can they still use their hotmail email addresses. Any help- with easy explanation- would be much appreciated!!

We do this in my family now. We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores). Each iDevice has this configured.
Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud. That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup. That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice. You can just restore from it.
So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response. What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures. Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures. 1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.
