Novell update and registration servers

bit of an odd one i've run into
client has moved from an onsite proxy server to a cloud based one (zscaler). Due to the authentication mechanism now being browser based and not the traditional popup prompt type, we cannot use the proxy to get to the Novell update and registration servers
Windows update and activation servers are added to an exception list to not require authentication at the proxy level so they will work
So the question I have is, what are the addresses that I need to add to the zscaler proxy to make novell server activation and updates work properly, as I can't seem to find a list of server addresses anywhere on the Novell website, only a list for sles 9 which is not of much use now since we are using a mix of OES2 and OES11 servers
Can someone help me out here or point me in the direction of where to look for the details about the servers, the only one I know of is nu.novell.com but i'm betting there is more than just that one

I'd certainly start with nu.novell.com and see if that gets you going.
And if that doesn't do it, some good WireSharking should help point out
where it is trying to get to.
Don't run away from a solution just because it looks too simple as there
are enough of us trying to keep up the KISS principle that some really
are that simple.

  • Adobe Premiere 12 Silent Install - How to Suppress Updates, EULA, Registration

    Hi, I've created a silent deployment of x86 Adobe Premiere Elements 12 using the following command line
    cmd /c start/wait OEM.exe /UL1033 /V"SERIALNUMBER=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX COUNTRY=12"
    I've put the application.xml.override (UTF-8 encoded file, contents shown below) into the root of install source (same directory as oem.exe) and also into the ElementsOrganizer sub-folder.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">
    <Configuration>
    <Payload>
    <Datakey="EULADelay">0</Data>
    <Datakey="Registration">Suppress</Data>
    <Data key="Updates">Suppress</Data>
    </Payload>
    </Configuration>
    The silent install works fine, however it appears the application.xml.override does not apply as the updates arent disabled/greyed out in the help menu and registration isnt suppressed.
    Does anyone know how updates and registration are suppressed for Premiere Elements 12?
    Appreciate your help.

    Hi Keith, sorry for my late reply.
    Surely I am able to connect to the help function when Icontact the website
    of AdobeLR5.The problem is as follows,
    When I open LR5 on my computer and work with it and try to open the help
    function in the software, I don't get it.
    When I bought the CD I was naiv enough to believe that I get an independent
    working software. I learned in the meantime, that the seller does not allow
    to work with, without being connected to them.
    I don't believe that I am paranoid, but I like to buy something and use it
    without to inform the supplier that I do it. Otherwise I could have bought
    the license fpr LR5 via internet.
    Best regards

  • Script servers update and restart

    i would like to automate install updates and restart for the servers on scheduled time (or initiate manually for all/groups) that are on GPO option 3 (download updates but let me install).
    I found couple of discussions from year 2010 and there is a success after many suggestions. But it is a bit time consuming to follow all this. So, may there is a definite step by step guide.
    Thanks
    &quot;When you hit a wrong note it's the next note that makes it good or bad&quot;. Miles Davis

    I am talking about the servers that will not cause any disruption.
    1. All servers are on option GPO option 3 (download updates only).
    2. In my case I talk about 15 hyper-v hosts with 2 VMs each (DC and Print server).
    So I know that any time Saturday, Sunday or any night time will not cause any problem.
    So instead of login to 15 HV hosts and then to 2 VMs on each for launching Windows update and restart I guess it is a valid option to run a script and get notification. The servers are generally HEALTHY so even in case of some error or non restart I can
    manage it after getting a notification.
    I believe people using this scenario.

  • CAS with WSUS(SUP)upstream server connected with microsoft for updates and 3 downstream servers Primary with WSUS(sup)

    hi aaa
    WSUS in the same site server with sccm but we have one cas and three primary with WSUS
    how much traffic will generate due to this process , as our CAS with WSUS will be in the same box and it will provide updates to downstream Servers in three primary sites. IS it good to have WSUS and site server together as we have SQL in different box for
    all three primary and CAS.

     Hi Torsen
    35000 clients with CAS 16GB memory and  300GB Hard disk same for all primary sites
    Germany with 6000 clients ,norway with china with 15000 clients and UK with 10000clients
    As the client wanted to Use CAS ,we have created CAS otherwise it could be standalone primary site.
    CAS in China with each region having Primary site so we have three primary.

  • I do updates and then have to reinstall previous versions - time and time again because of the number of unsupported add-ons

    4 or 5 times I've updated Firefox only to have to reinstall the previous version due to incompatibility with add-ons / plug-ins / toolbars. I'm not a big user of Toolbars but I have some add on I use daily.
    The last 3 times I did a "suggested by Firefox" update I've had to reinstall a previous version from my saved files in order to use Firefox. This problem has caused me to return to IE as my default browser - but unwillingly.
    My current setup is Firefox 4.0.1 Beta and I had to reinstall a version 3 in the Firefox folder until addons starting working in this 4.0.1 Beta. However 4.0.1 has always hung up, even opening a tab and ceases to respond; sometimes for minutes.
    I run Win XP - SP3 Dell Pentium 4 - 3.0ghz with 4 gigs of DDR2 - GX520. So it's not an equipment problem - (I have 4 PC's on my home LAN - although each serves it's purpose and seldom are 2 used at the same time.
    When I installed 4.0.1 and then reinstalled 3.x ... I've been hoping for an update --- I love Firefox - have ever since first use - and then today I saw the update versions had jumped from 4 all the way to 7. I was enthused.
    Same issue. On install over the V 3.x it showed 6 items of add-ons that were incompatible. I did not remove the V 7 ... I simple reopened the 4.0.1 beta. I use it for single page browsing as tabs locks it up or slows it to a crawl.
    I'm having to continue using IE as my default --- I always keep a backup browser, but I don't care for much of anything that has an MS on it's name.
    I've never posted to Mozilla ... but the idea crossed my mind over a year ago when I updated and had to back-up and reinstall. WHY can't a program precede the update to check for compatibility, just as an upgrade adviser from one OS to another?
    This was the biggest list of all. NET Framework Assistant, Google Toolbar, Yahoo Toolbar, Roboform ... there were 2 others. I don't use the Yahoo Toolbar. I have Google Toolbar installed but keep it hidden except when I need it (for Page Rank, etc., I work websites).
    But I won't use a browser that doesn't support AI Roboform.
    I honestly love Firefox. I code webpages - .asp, .html and do SEO ... but I don't know the difficulty of writing even a small application. Would it be too difficult to have a small program that would check for these add-on incompatibilities before installing the updates.
    I was impressed with 4.0.1 beta until I realized that opening a new window or tab bogged it down.
    I want Firefox back but not with band-aids and work-around bandages. Is there a version between 4.0.1 and v7 which I tried tonight that would support my plug-ins / add-on. My experience with Firefox using versions up to 3.x has been great. But for months and months I open 4.0.1 and open my TV guide at ZapIt and then I've had to use IE 8 for all my web browsing.
    My most important add-on is for Roboform and 2nd would be for Google Toolbar - but on a scale of 1-10 Roboform is a 10+ and Google Toolbar a 3.
    If this post does not go to the support team at Firefox then how would I go about suggesting an Update Adviser prior to installing an update?
    Anyone with a flexible solution - even short term - that would allow me to see Firefox improvements since the v4 I'm using would be more appreciated than I could ever express.
    Since I've never posted before I'm not even sure how I'll get a response or be able to see any responses. Something during the registration said I could get an email when a reply was posted.
    Thanks again for listening to me whimper and beg for a workable Firefox; I miss it.

    this is all I can find, thank you for your time.

  • Lync 2013 updating databases after updating Front End servers

    We have a front-end server pool consisting of 3 Lync 2013 servers and a back end of 2 SQL servers using SQL mirroring.  All servers are Windows 2008 R2.
    Following the instructions in
    http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2809243 , I verified that the servers were all ready for updates, then I ran the
    Stop-CsWindowsService -Graceful cmdlet to stop the Lync services on the first FE server, then I ran LyncServerUpdateInstaller.exe to install the updates.  After the updates were installed, I restarted the server, waited for Lync services
    to all start, then repeated the process on the next 2 servers in turn.  This was all successful.
    I am now looking at step 2 in this document, applying the back-end database updates, and I have a problem and some questions.  The problem is that all the databases had the principal copy on the mirrored SQL server.  I ran the recommended Invoke-CsDatabaseFailover
    -NewPrincipal Primary cmdlet repeatedly, using all the database types I could find, but I still have two databases (database names
    xds and lis) on the mirrored server.  Since the cmdlet requires a database type, what type of databases are the xds and the lis databases?
    Once I get that done, I an still unsure of exactly what to run to update the databases.  The KB article states to run Install-CsDatabase -ConfiguredDatabases -SqlServerFqdn FEBE.FQDN -Verbose .  Do I type this in exactly
    as stated, or is FEBE.FQDN a variable for our SQL server or some other entity in our environment?  If I do use the actual SQL Server name in that, do I run it twice, using the name of the mirrored SQL server the second time?  
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Hi Logan Burt,

    I tried to restore, update and back up my ipod touch. once it said it was successful i clicked on the label of my ipod in itunes and it had written, "we're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time." now whenever i click on the label it just says that and on my ipod it tells me to plug into itunes when it already is. i didnt update restore or back it up with the latest version, so i downloaded the latest version, how do i start the process again so my ipod works!! help this is gay !!

    Hmm, well... iTunes trys to activate your iPod using the Apple server to make sure you have bought it legit.
    Two things come into my mind:
    1) Your iTunes can't access the internet.
    2) Apples activation servers are down.
    That's just my cents, maybe anyone else has an idea.

  • IPhone 4, iOS 6 update, and wifi - cannot browse WWW via DNS

    Apologies for the long post in advance. Hopefully it's exhaustive enough for Apple to take notice.
    tl;dr:
    updated iPhone 4 (VZW) to iOS 6 on home wi-fi. now phone will not browse to WWW on home wi-fi, EXCEPT WHEN BYPASSING DNS (ie, browsing by IP address). tried lots. no success
    full events detail:
    I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 yesterday evening (via iTunes on my Win 7 x64 PC). Upon completion, I ran into some trouble trying to sign in with my AppleID in order to restore from my iCloud backup. Suspecting that Apple's servers were just experiencing trouble (though nothing indicated iCloud was down), I skipped signing in and went about my day. The rest of my settings copied across from my computer. At that point, I slept on it.
    The following morning (today), I noticed that I still could not sign in, but was off to work and did not have time to examine it further. At the office, all seemed well, and I used the phone with the updated OS largely without issue, including connecting to two new wifi networks. Returning home, however, I noticed that the behavior was the same as the previous evening, ie I could not connect to things like the App Store in order to install updates, the web to look for information, etc. Now having time to troubleshoot, I pressed forward with the investigation and immediately found a number of support community and web threads detailing wi-fi issues on devices after updating to iOS 6. I followed the steps I found, but I still have the same issue. Below is the list of things I've attempted, to the best of my ability to recollect.
    1. forget network, rejoin - same symptoms
    2. power off phone, power on - same symptoms
    3. set wi-fi network HTTP proxy to Auto - same symptoms
    3. forget network, power off wi-fi, power off cellular data, power on wi-fi, rejoin network (same symptoms), power on cellular data (same symptoms)
    4. power off bluetooth (already done, no change), power on bluetooth - same symptoms
    5. forget network, airplane mode on, power on wi-fi, rejoin network - same symptoms
    6. clear cookies, cache, website data - same symptoms
    7. try another browser (Opera) - same symptoms
    8. try static IP on wi-fi network - same symptoms
    9. forget network, power off router, turn off wi-fi, power off phone, power on phone, reset network settings, power on wi-fi, power on router (after 5+ mins), rejoin - same symptoms
    10. restore phone to factory defaults (same symptoms) and restore from backup (same symptoms)
    11. enable SSID broadcast on router - same symptoms
    12. enable WMM on 802.1n router - already enabled, same symptoms
    13. disable 40MHz channels on 802.1n router - same symptoms
    14. set router to 802.1g operation - same symptoms
    15. remove wireless security from wi-fi network - same symptoms
    16. change SSID - same symptoms
    17. update router firmware - no updates available, also, same router was working prior to update and continues to work without trouble with all other wi-fi devices in the house
    18. try another router - already verified this works, but as a result of the particulars of this case, is not relevant as my home router is not at fault, so much as the update to iOS 6 is on my iPhone 4. as other routers work and as a factory restore did not resolve (prior to backup restoration), I also do not believe my iPhone 4 to be at fault, so much as the software update itself
    Having exhausted all of those suggestions, I dug further. The phone was working without issue up until the moment it needed to reboot to apply the downloaded iOS 6 update. I initially encountered the incorrect password scenario during the post-update configuration, but after forgetting and setting up the wireless profile from scratch (from the iOS 6 setup wizard), it joined my wi-fi network. The phone DID pull an IP address from my router, and responded to pings from other devices on my network without issue. In addition, using the Safari browser to web to a local network device, such as my router, was successful, indicating that the wi-fi network was established and routing appropriately. All other devices on the network, wired or otherwise, were working without issue. I then attempted to trace traffic and found that none of my phone's web requests were reaching my router, except for those targeted at the LAN. I then tried browsing to an IP to ensure there was not a DNS issue, and my phone browsed successfully. I then tried another site by domain name and failed, and then its IP and was successful. I verified against my router's logs that the web requests were routing through it to ensure that my cellular data wasn't taking over, and the logs confirmed it. At that point, I tried changing DNS from my standard servers to another set, but the behavior remained the same. I then tried setting my router as the DNS server, but the issue remained.
    In conclusion, it appears to be some sort of DNS issue specific to the update. I would also hazard a guess that this is impacting people on the networks where they downloaded the update and/or were connected when the phone actually updated. I've tried setting the profile to use local, ISP, and public DNS servers, but as the requests never reach my router, I am inclined to believe it's being restricted by a setting on the phone itself. Because the problem persists through a factory restore, it would seem to point to all data not being truly erased during that process. Recall that I'm having the same issue prior to a backup being restored to the device, and that this issue prevents iCloud from being accessed during the setup process while on the problematic wi-fi network, so that should rule out the backup playing any part in the trouble.
    Any thoughts?

    The OP is correct, I have done many tests.  With IOS6 there appears to be a dns issue in some cases with IOS for both ipad(2) at lease (my wife won't let me upgrade here v1) and the iPhone4s in my case.  Pretty easy to diagonse, I wish Apple would fix it.
    1.) I use a Juniper 5GT wireless firewall and all of my other devices (many apple, ipad, MBP, iMAC,3 ipods etc) are fine: Not ipad2 or iphone4s running IOS6
    2.) after upgrade nothing worked.  narrowed it down by messing with dns (I have my own dns server)
    3.) Strange thing; dns works over MiFI (Verizon) and Carrier
    4.) confirmed that it is a dns and not network issue.
    -down load free tool called ping-scope-lite.   (obviously you need to turn off wifi to do this)
      http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ping-scope-lite/id431500107?mt=8
    turn on wifi
    - ping Level3 dns server 4.2.2.2 or Googlesdns servers 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 these worked.
    -now ping by name google.com or ipchicken.com
       - try others; same result.
    Apple did say that they would give me another iphone 4s: I just wasn't sure that would fix my issue.  I tried downgrading to 5.1.1 but I got an error saying my device wasn't able to do so (tried even blocking itunes from contacting Apple)  I whis this could be fixed.  I did even have it working using my own dns server but now I can see that my phone over wifi isn't even trying to make a dns request now.

  • Uninstall Airport extreme 2008-004 update and go back to previous version

    Hello
    This morning I installed the airport extreme 2008-004 update. Since then, I have not been able to access the internet when my VPN (Check Point) is active. I can access the internet if I "stop" the VPN. I use a Netgear WNR834M router and I have not had problems between this router and the AirBook before. Even when I am unable to access the internet, it appears that I am connected to the wireless network. I have stopped and started modem, router, and Mac several times, to no avail.
    I had a good deal of trouble with a VPN before, and rather than attempting to fix this, I would like to just uninstall the update and restore what I had before. Is there an easy way to do this?
    Thank you very much

    Warren,
    If you haven't yet, try these suggestions. They have worked for others.
    *_Slow & Dropped Internet Connection After Airport Update_*
    The suggestions below have recently helped others after a System or Airport update. Consider each topic separately, If one does not resolve your issue, move on to the next one.
    *Reset/Change DNS Settings*
    Launch Airport Utility.
    Select Airport device on left.
    Click "Manual Setup".
    Select "Internet" from the toolbar above.
    What's listed for "DNS Server(s):"? Try putting in these servers from OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Click "Update".
    Next, on all Macs affected, launch System Prefs --> Network Prefs.
    Select the service you usually connect with on the left (Airport or Ethernet).
    Then click, "Advanced...".
    Click the "DNS" tab.
    What's listed for "DNS Server(s):"? Usually "10.0.1.1" will be listed first in gray. This refers back to the settings in the Airport Utility.
    Nevertheless, it doesn't hurt to add the DNS servers noted above here as well.
    Click "OK" then click "Apply".
    Finally, reboot your Mac.
    Now see if you have internet access all around.
    *Reset Airport Service*
    Launch System Preferences --> Network Preferences.
    Highlight the Airport Service on the left.
    Click the Action menu (tiny gear button) in the lower left.
    Select "Make Service Inactive".
    Then select "Make Service Active".
    Click "Apply".
    *Delete & Add Airport Service*
    Launch System Preferences --> Network Preferences.
    Highlight the Airport Service on the left.
    Click the “-” button in the lower left to remove the Airport Service.
    Next, click the “+” button and add an Airport Service.
    Click “Apply”.
    Note: Removing the AirPort interface resets your preferred AirPort networks.  You will need to add preferred networks again.
    *Reset Network/Airport Settings*
    1. Go to Macintosh HD --> Library --> Preferences --> SystemConfiguration Folder
    Drag the following files to the desktop:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    com.apple.network.identification.plist
    NetworkInterfaces.plist
    preferences.plist
    Restart your Mac.
    Go System Preferences --> Network.
    From the “Location” menu select “Edit Locations”.
    Click the “+” button and name it “Home” or “My Network”.
    Click “Done”.
    Highlight “Airport” on the left, and verify that your network appears beside “Network Name”.
    Click “Apply”.
    Click “Advanced…”.
    Click the “Airport” tab, and add your network to the “Preferred Networks”list.
    Click “OK” and then click “Apply” once more.
    Now see if your connectivity issues are resolved. Later you can Trash the .plist files you dragged to the Desktop.
    *Archive & Install*
    As a last resort, an Archive & Install using your Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) installation DVD will usually resolve this issue. Then use Software Update to bring your system up to date. It appears that reapplying the recent updates in this condition, does not cause the problems to return.
    Let us know if any of the above suggestions helped to resolve your connectivity issues.

  • Slow transfer speed between existing servers and new servers

    I have an issue with copying files to a new HP physical server with Esxi 5.5 host and Windows 2012 Server from anywhere in our current network.  
    We have an older HP server with Esxi 3 and multiple Windows 2003 vms, including a domain controller, file server and sql server (our current environment).   I installed a new HP DL380 Gen 8 server and installed Esxi 5 and two Windows 2012 servers,
    one is a DC and one is a file server (our future environment).  
    Currently the new 2012 DC a second domain controller; have not made it the first domain controller yet.   The 2012 file server is a member server.  Same network IP range, static, same subnet, same gw.
    When I try to copy files from our current environment – to either of the Windows 2012 servers it crawls, like 100kb/sec or less.   It is slow between 2003 and 2012 servers, either direction, and between my Windows 7 and the 2012 server.  Does
    not matter if I use windows to copy or robocopy.  It is very fast between the 2003 servers in the current environment and between my windows 7 and the current servers.  Downloads from the Internet do not seem slow.  I have done the following
    to try to resolve with no success:
    Some forums have suggested disabling Large Send offload on the nic card – usually Broadcom cards, ours are intel, but      I tried it anyway with no success.
    Some forums suggested turning off digital signing in group policy, no success.
        Some forums suggest SMB2 can be a culprit, I disabled it on the 2012 server with no change in speed.  
    I made sure all the updates are complete on the new 2012 file server.
    Turned the server firewall off to be sure it wasn’t blocking something; no antivirus installed yet.
    I contacted Vmware to make sure the virtual switch and nics were set up correctly on Esxi 5, they said they are.
    I checked the physical Cisco switch settings to make sure it looked fine.   The current and future physical servers were      all connected to the same physical switch.
    I switched out the network cable
    I moved the network cable to a different switch.
       I checked to be sure DNS was set up correctly.
       I checked firewall settings on the Esxi 5.5.
       Current HP Service pack is installed on the Gen 8 Server.
    I am running out ideas.   Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Would you like to adjust to RSS, NetDMA and TCP Offload?
