Not picking up DHCP info from Windows wireless network

Hey all,
I posted once before and received zero replies, so here's hoping the second time is the charm.
I have a building using HP ProCurve 420A wireless access points. There's a primary SSID that Powerbook users can see properly using Airport. The security is WPA-2 with a public shared key.
The Windows XP and 2000 users can see the network, authenticate and receive DHCP information to access the network.
The Mac users can see the network, "seem" to authenticate (the Aiport utility says it is connected) but never receive DHCP info (the Powerbooks always show 169.x.x.x values, as you'd see in factory defaults). If I play with this and plug a static address into the Powerbooks, they hop on the network through the HP access points. If I remove the static address and try to obtain network info via DHCP, I've had it work exactly once....despite scores of attempts (if it works once we're hopeful we've overlooked something obvious, right?).
The wireless access points are at the most current version firmware and the test Mac I've been using is at OS 10.4.7
Does anyone have experience with this issue, know of a solution or conversely, know if it's an issue that hasn't been succesfully solved?
I respectfully note in advance that folks suggesting "buy Apple wireless access points" won't be helping me much. There are budget constraints to go along with this issue that don't allow replacement of access points en masse.
Thanks,
Scott

"I was hopeful this might do it for me...but if I understand the OS X firewall properly, it's only configured in Sharing to allow access through a particular Mac to it's own shared resources for other computers to see and use. Firewall was turned off (in Sharing) on the test Mac I'm using.
Am I misunderstanding this feature? Is there another built-in firewall utility that's more analogous to the Windows XP firewall that actually limits the workstation's connections to all external resources, as opposed to only limiting shared resources to other computers from the machine being configured? If so, I haven't found it."
well id hardly say its analgous to windows firewall utility as thats more liek the dumbed down versio of the firewall you find in the sharing preferences. And yes thats all there is to it from a GUI interface (at least out of the box). Simply turning it on or off here whould disable or enable it and checking/unchecking the various allow options in sharing should add or remove the appropriate rules.
However there is MUCH more to OSX's firewall. Its jsut accessed from the command line via ipfw. This is a full featured software firewall typically found on most *nix distrobutions. if youre interested in it further you can open up terminal and type:
man ipfw
youll get an eyeful

PO not picking up the Price from Info Record ???

Hi,
Pricing Procedure and the Schema Grp is defined in Schema Determination in SPRO.
Schema Grp has been assigned in the Vendor Master.
Price has been maintained in the PB00 condition type in the Condition Supplements screen, but shows 'Zero' in the 'Purchasing Org. Data 1' screen of Info Record.
However, while creating PO the system does not pick up the Price from the Info Record and both the Condition Types PB00 and PBXX appears and display the Amount as 0.00 ? Also the system does not take the value entered in the 'Net Price' field and the Price can only be entered manually in the Conditon Type in the Conditions Tab ?
Can anyone help in resolving this issue ?
Lucky.

Hi Lucky
1.Routine 6
This is an example of a pricing requirement. This requirement is met if the condition exclusion indicator is not equal to 'X'. <b>This requirement can be assigned to a condition type in the pricing procedure to ensure that it is not accessed when a condition record with exclusion indicator 'X' has already been found</b>. Condition exclusion is a general tool that can be used to exclude conditions from pricing based on previous conditions that have been found in the pricing procedure. This requirement is intended for use in MM pricing versus SD pricing. For SD pricing, a variation of requirement '2' should be used which would also check to see if the item category is relevant for pricing
2. You have define all your supplementory condition in supplementory pricing procedure and you have to assign this supplementory procedure to your Condition type PB00.Then all these conditions will be displayed at item level for selection in drop down.
Since the supplementory conditions are dependent on PB00, you have assign to the PB00.
If you maintain the values for these conditions in info record, these values will be copied from info to PO.

WARNING: Failed to get Network Cost info from NLM, assuming network is NOT metered, error = 0x80240037

I have couple of VMs Server 2012 R2 RTM on Hyper-v Host running the same OS.
All machines including host and VM that is not in domain have an error in Windowsupdate.log:
AU WARNING: Failed to get Network Cost info from NLM, assuming network is NOT metered, error = 0x80240037
FW and UAC are off on all. There are posts on web discussing the same error but most of them connect this to WSUS or Config Manager. And it is clear because we are touching Windowsupdate.log when troubleshooting WSUS. And because WSUS on 2012 is BUGGY this
error confuses too.
Finally, as mentioned earlier I deployed NEW server 2012 not from SYSPREP and did not place it to the domain. Updated the machine from MS update. Everything is OK beside the same error about COST :).
So now it is clear it has nothing to do with WSUS or Configuration manager. It indicates to some Network issue. But there is no clear answer. Some suggest just to ignore the error if everything is OK. But I would like to have a clean log. And it is just
interesting what could cause the problem. Is it Hyper-V stuff or Server 2012 itself. Anyway I guess I am doing right by posting a question on HV forum since here are people that should know 2012 .
Thanks.

Hi pob579,
Sorry for the late .
I want to know if your network connection indicates " unidentified network ".
If that is the case , you can try the step below :
    open the "local group policy"
    expand local computer policy -->computer configuration -->windows settings -->security settings
--> network list manager policies
    in the right pane you will see Unidentified Networks , double click it , then you can configure the
Location Type when the network connection is unidentified
    If there is domain , you need to change the same entry in "Domain Policy"
    after that please restart your computer
Hope this helps
Best Regards

JDBC sender channel running but not picking up the data from sp

Hi,
One of the jdbc sender channels in production is running at its schedule time but it is not picking up the data from the sql side, we have checked with the sp side and they are saying that sp is running fine. No changes have been done in its configuration. Last message coming in RWB is Retry interval started but that is of 1 day and its already been 3 days. I tried by starting and stopping the channel but of no use. The channel was re activated but that also didn't help.
Please help, what can be the reason for the same.
thanks.

Hi,
The JDBCadapter ( The respective channel) is definitely locked in PI . Ideally for each polling interval a lock is being created and once the processing is over , the lock should be released/deleted automatically to allow further polling interval. If the lock is not released by the system automatically,further polling will not happen as expected. ( This may affect all sender JDBC adapters as well. I would recommend to do a check in all sender JDBC communication channels)
You can see/delete the locks in Visual admin.
Go to Server>Services->Locking adapter and click refresh
The entries for JDBC adapter ( with name $XIDBAD.JDBC2XI) should be deleted by selecting those particilar entries and click delete selected locks.
If you have more than one node, then same should be done in all server nodes.
The temprory solution would be creating/copy the existing channel in ID with same properties and assign it into particular sender agreement.
But, the lock may be created again which potentailly stops all your database interfaces. Hence i would suggest to use Disconnect From Database After processing of Each messages in Advanced tab in the sender JDBC adapter.
Hope this solves your issue.
PS: The same bahaviour would expected for all file adapter as well

Service entry Sheet does not pick any Condition charges From Service PO

Hi All
Service entry Sheet does not pick any Condition charges From Service PO. What could be the reason ?

HI,
Please check Sap note 381030
Along with other thing It says
"Delivery costs are generally not supported in external services management and in case
of blanket purchase orders, item category D or B. Instead of representing delivery
costs via conditions, in case of service documents, freight costs and other, SAP
recommends to add in additional service lines."
So that is the reason you are not getting those account entry in the time of service entry sheet
Use another service line with text ( or service master) for the additional costs as suggested by SAP
Hope it clarifies

Conflict with WRT160N and Windows Wireless Network Connection

I have a WRT160N router connected to a Verizon FIOS cable modem with five computers (all Windows based) wirelessly connected to the N router. Four of the computers auto detect the N router connection when the computer starts up using Windows Wireless Network Connection and operate well. One of the computers, which is the only one running Easylink for router configuration, will not connect through the Wireless Network Connection. I have to use Easylink to manually connect. The WNC gives a msg that Windows cannot configure this wireless connection and to configure the wireless connection using Wireless Zero Configuration service. When I configure WZC correctly the WNC sees all available networks and allows me to select the Advanced Wireless checkbox to allow Windows to connect to the wireless network. However, when I reboot the computer none of the configuration parameters are saved and I am back to manually connecting using Easylink and going through the entire process again. Any suggestions? Thx

Uninstall the EasyLink and connect manually. I think EasyLink 3.0 or later is coming soon ..

Adding Airport Express to Existing Windows Wireless Network

My fiance has an existing Windows wireless network. I have an Airport Express I want to add to the network so I can "broadcast" my iTunes (or her's) through a powered speaker system in another room?
My question is...is that possible? And if so, how?
I've tried running my Airport Setup Assistant and restarting the Airport Express to no avail and would appreciate any suggestions.

Connect to the wireless network connected to the net (ie the (so-called) Windows wireless network**.
Having hard reset the Airport Express, run the Assistant and configure a new base station and configure it to connect to the existing wireless network.
** There is no such thing as a Windows wireless network, as 802.11b/g is the same standard used by Apple and other wireless router manufacturers, it is not Windows specific in any way.

TS3276 Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
Select Password authentication and add your details.
You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.
