Network priority for the server

Hello, I have one computer working as a server/router (two NIC's) and two windows machines in the LAN. All traffic to the internet goes through the server.
Problem is, that I have few services on the server machine that require a good ping. Sometimes on the windows machines I may end up using the entire download speed (e.g. when downloading something from steam) and thus it may effect (lag) the services on the server. I'd like to give top priority to the server when it comes to downloading/uploading.
I already found out that I can do traffic shaping with shorewall: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ro … _shorewall
Can I use shorewall just to do the traffic shaping and nothing else? I'm already using UFW to forward traffic. Does it conflict with shorewall or require some sort of special configuration to work?

I recommend you use plain iptables, so you can debug it.
Here's my traffic shaping, and an alternative method.

It's absolutley scandalous that a company with Apple's resources can let this happen. They should have staggered the release by region rather than opening the flood gates. The upgrade itself took me about 10 attempts to download it, and then I thought I was home free. That was until it rebooted and won't activate. It's over 2 hours now.
Scandalous!

What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?

What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?
I've been trying for a while now to setup a Remote Panel. I can connect to my computers remote panel from other computers on my LAN but nowhere else.
When ever I use the web publishing tool it gives me a URL in this format: http://Computer-Name.Corporate-Name.local:8086/VI-Name.html Apparently this means I have a local DNS server and this URL has no meaning from the public.
When I try connecting with the Operate>>Connect to Remote Panel..., I get this error message:
"Connecting to remote panel server...
Remote panel connection refused by specified server: Make sure LabVIEW Web Server is enabled on specified server"
I got the same error when I tried to host a remote panel from my laptop at home, on my Wi-Fi. Is there some network or firewall setting I'm not seting? Could it be my server or router or private network?
My goal is to be able to host Remote Panels from my laptop while I am travailing internationally, by using 4G mobile internet. Is that even passable?
Solved!

Have you enabled the Remote Panel Server in the Web Server options on the server?

Enter your name and password for the server when trying to connect PC and Mac?

I'm trying to connect my iMac and my WIndows tablet (got it for free) together through my home network. I open iPhoto, then "Import to Library" ; the connection fails and when I click on "Connect as" up pops this box asking me to "enter your name and password for the server -computer name here-". HELP!! Where do I find the password? I've tried everything possible and no go.

Network requirements for SQL Server Replication

Hi,
Can any one tell me what is network requirements for SQL Server replication.
I have successfully configured the replication on LAN with active directory but I am unable to configure it on WAN.
Can anyone tell me how WAN can be configured for sql server replication.
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Hi Muhammad,
In addition to Prashanth’s post, please also check the following things to optimize SQL Server replication with a WAN link.

After i installed updates for my mac mini server, the web services for the server app wont start, it gives an error massage: "Error Reading Settings"

After i installed updates for my mac mini server, the web services for the server app wont start, it gives an error massage: "Error Reading Settings"
The system logs reads:
Mar 29 22:06:25 server servermgrd[82]: servermgr_web: Error Domain=XSServerFoundationErrorDomain Code=4 "Failed to read settings: Exception:
          undefined method `downcase' for nil:NilClass

          undefined method `downcase' for nil:NilClass

To check the local network for some of the common configuration problems, launch Terminal.app and issue the following diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
That'll report some local configuration information and then either no errors detected and no changes required, or it'll point to whatever configuration errors or issues it might detect. That doesn't catch everything, but it catches the common errors.
FWIW, 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are poor choices for the local network, as VPNs are based on IP routing and IP routing gets tangled when the same subnet is used on both ends of the VPN. 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 are near ubiquitous in home networks and coffee shops.

My 4th generation iPod Touch won't let me get on to the App Store. When I log on to iTunes, an alert pops up that says the certificate for the server is invalid, and that it may be a server pretending to be iTunes. What should I do?

My iPod won't let me on to the App Store, and whenever I go on to ITunes, an alert pops up that the certificate for the server is invalid, and that I may be connecting to a server that is only pretending to be iTunes.apple.com and my personal info may be at risk. I downloaded an emulator yesterday from coolroms.com but deleted the app this afternoon. I cleared my safari search data, my cookies and data, and web inspector, which still didn't work. I then proceeded to reset my iPod and then download the newest version of IOS 6.1.5 but yet still am having problems. Also to the App Store and iTunes, several other apps aren't working. Any help here?

Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly

I have a 2 server SharePoint farm.
All outgoing emails were working fine.
I just restarted both servers and now after that none of the emails are being sent. I am using OOB publishing workflow and it shows message:
The e-mail message could not be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
Even if I setup Alert on some list, it doesn't send email.
I have checked that outgoing email setting in CA is defined and like I said it was working fine without problems but after restart it is showing error.
What could be the cause of this and how to fix it?
EDIT
I removed outgoing mail server in CA, added again and restart IIS but still emails from OOB workflow is not being sent. But email from Alerts are being sent. Don't know what to do now.

This is really weird, It works when an alert is set but workflows doesn't send emails... Can you create a simple 1 Step workflow in SPD to send an email when a specific field is set. See if this sends an email..
AJ MCTS: SP 2010 Configuration MCSA: Windows 7 If you find this post useful kindly please mark it as an answer :) TY
I created a test workflow which sends email to user and it is also not sending email. But I am getting email from SharePoint regarding "variation" page changes as well as alerts which I told above.

Yosemite 10.10.2 server app. FTP help. I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac folder. It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?

So I have set up a localhost area in my Mac. I have the new server.app and I am running yosemite 10.10.2 .
I have a program running in my local server enviroment that wants to FTP to my mac .
It asks for the server , name, password, port and path. what are they?
I am pretty certain that the Serveris "localhost",
Name is my macs name (like my-mac-min)
password is "my login password"
and they suggest port 21.
But what is the file path, lets just say my site is set up http://localhost/siteftp and is actually at my Users/Sites/siteftp folder.
Why cant this program connect to the mac.
Is it because they are both operating in the same localhost enviroment,
could it be my folder permissions are not correct on siteftp folder?
Help please !

I tried turning the computer off and then back on. The alerts don't show the notice to update as resolved. Hopefully this is not a problem or an indicator or another problem. Should I ignore or reload 10.10.1 from the app store to trigger a resolved check in a green circle?
Interesting that I had to buy server software after my free Yosemite download. I would have hoped that the two pieces of software would have gone together without any complication. It is not positive to end up buying a problem. Ah well, time to move on.

How to remove "Enter your name and password for the server"

Hi there,
I have a Mac Book Pro from 2008. I have mountain lion running on it.
We used to have a server (pc) in the office that I connected to and stored all of my photos and videos etc.
We have jsut upgraded to a new server and this connects great!
However, ever since the switch, when i open keynote, imovie or iphoto i get the error message:
"Enter your name and password for the server "192.168.0.10".
(it is trying to connect to the old server)
I have tried a bunch of fixes online but i dont think they are relevant for this issue - or i cant find what they want tme to change or remove.
Any help would be great! having this pop up while trying to create things slows everything down.
thanks!!

The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.

Hi,
I have SP 2013, and it was working properly. and workflows send emails perfectly. yesterday, i decided to build a fresh site collection so i deleted the old one and created a new one. now, workflows are unable to send emails. i'm sure it has nothing to do
with my mail server cuz no changes happened to it. i'm sure about the settings for outgoing mail on central admin. all i did, was to enter mail server IP in outgoing mail field and email below it.
in the workflow status the status says "error" followed by this message: "The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly."
Any help please?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to send email after building a fresh site collection.
I recommend to verify that you have entered your SMTP server name correctly.
You can add it as FQDN e.g. ServerName.DomainName.

The email message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing email settings for the server are configured properly

i have an issue when loading a workflow. it gives me a following error "The email message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing email settings for the server are configured properly". it doesnt send me any alerts and worlflow fails at the end
with the above error message.

Hi,
I agree with Bistesh. But after Outgoing e-mail settings are configured properly, if the issue still exists,
It may result from your Anti-Virus. Please refer to the following steps:
Open MCAfee Console and go to Access Protection window.
Click Anti-Virus Standard Protection and edit “prevent mass mailing
worms from sending emails” rule.
Now we need to know which processes are being blocked therefore we need to check the MCAfee Log located at
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\DesktopProtection\AccessProtectionLog.txt
you may find entries of DtExec , DtExecUI and DatabaseMail90, now these processes need to be entered in the exclusion list of selected rule .
Reset the IIS And SharePoint Timer service to check if this works for you.

In weblogic server when I Setting Up a User and Tablespace for the Server M

In weblogic server when I Setting Up a User and Tablespace for the Server Migration Leasing Table in Sql Plus I got an error. ORA-00972: identifier is too long

Refer: How to: Grant User Access to a Report Server (Report Manager), but this gives a step-by-step procedure for
adding users who are a part of the Domain. In your case you are trying to add users who are not a part of the domain, meaning, you are trying to create users only specific to Reporting Services, am I right?
But Reporting Services either relies on AD to authenticate the users, or you can create a custom-authentication extension to authenticate the users.
In your case, you might need use a custom security extension, and use that to create/delete/modify users. Check the Forms authentication Sample here:
http://msftrsprodsamples.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=SS2008%21Security%20Extension%20Sample&referringTitle=Home

Network adapter for the private interface for RAC

Hi guys
This is the specification for the Network adapter for the private interface in RAC:
The network adapter for the private interface must support the user datagram protocol (UDP) using high-speed network adapters and a network switch that supports TCP/IP (Gigabit Ethernet or better).
Do you have a document where I can have more deep details about it ?
Thanks

The network adapter for the private interface must support the user datagram protocol (UDP) using high-speed network adapters and a network switch that supports TCP/IP (Gigabit Ethernet or better).Note that TCP is also used in addition to UDP over the Interconnect. As for the statement that the NIC must support UDP - wrong statement to make. The NIC does not support UDP. The IP (Internet Protocol) stack does. The NIC supports the bottom layer of the ISO model. UDP is at layer 4.
As for your Interconnect, you have two basic choices. Gigabyte Ethernet or Infiniband.
For GigE you need of course a GigE NIC and a GigE switch, and a cable to wire the NIC into the switch.
For Infiniband you need a HCA card (e.g. Mellanox InfiniHost PCI card) and an Infiniband switch. As HCA cards are dual port, it make sense to get 2 cables and wire both ports into the switch and bond those 2 ports as a single logical NIC. You can run IPoIB (IP over Infiniband), which means that the 2 ports on the HCA will be seen by the o/s as NICs - and bonding is supported which enables you to create a single logical NIC on top of these 2 NICs and thus have full redundancy.
Also note that GigE typically is only 1Gb/s. 10 Gb/s is available, but expensive (especially the switch). Infiniband typically is QDR rate today that provides you with 40Gb/s pipes. So each port on the HCA will be 40Gb and the bonded port will thus be 2x40Gb/s.
Infiniband is a lot faster and more scalable for an Interconnect than GigE.
Also, because of the capacity and flexibility and low latency of Infiniband, you can also use it for your storage fabric layer (running your storage protocol over it).
Typically you will need to get HBA cards (dual fibre port) to wire the RAC node to the storage array's fibre channel switch. These HBA ports are 2Gb/s.
You can eliminate these HBAs and fibre cables by using a storage protocol like SRP (Scsi RDMA Protocol - RDMA=Remote Direct Memory Access) - running SRP over your Infiniband infrastructure, together with your Interconnect.
This is btw what Oracle's Database Machine and Exadata Storage servers use (and one the reasons they have broken all RAC performance records).
