Old dns host name still showing!

I setup a new OSX 10.6 server and the dns name that i choose at the installation setup wizard was server1.mydomain.com.
after the installation is done, i decided to get rid of this name and setup a new dns name.. so i picked up a server2.mydomain.com
dns is resolving fine when i host server2.mydomain.com i got the server ip address and when i host the server ip it resolves the dns name, and also when i run the command changeip -checkhostname
both names matches and it says nothing to change.
my only problem now is when I go to Push Notifications & under configures services box, I see the old dns name and right next to it "iCal".. how can i change that so it will just match the new dns name which is dns2.mydomain.com ??
So I went to the iCal service and there is a button to Remove the old dns name..i clicked on it and it asks me for username and password for server1.mydomain.com to stop delivering push calendar notifications and when I click on connect, it shows an error:
Server Cannot be found on the network, check that the server hostname you've provided is valid or try again later?
Any idea or thoughts ?
Thanks

Here's the full dump of settings for calendar:
$ sudo serveradmin settings calendar
If you've got settings showing for your old host, shut off the calendar server, and then try resetting those references via serveradmin. (See +serveradmin help+ for details)
If that fails, I'd then start by pulling the notifications off in Server Admin and shutting off iCal Server, and re-adding calendar, and restarting, and re-adding the notifications.
Failing that, (ugh, not my preferred choice nor preferred suggestion) reinstall.

DNS Host name problem

Hi, I am a newbie to AS. Nice to join the family and meet u all.
I got some problem during installation of AS 2005Q2, when I install and select 'Config Now' option, I cannot pass since the DNS hostname always fail.
If I select 'Config Later', I will find something is missing, like asadmin tool is not avaiable.
Since I will use the Ip only, can I disable or bypass the DNS host name? since no matter how I enter it always fail.
Please advise, thank you very much in advance. :)

All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account/Apple ID that was used to download the apps. You will need to use the Apple ID that was used to download the apps to install app updates.
Apps downloaded with one Apple ID can't be transferred to another ID and accounts can't be merged.

Old computer name still shows

I bought a new iMac core duo early this year and migrated all my data from my ibook to it. Not a problem, and i reinstalled Tiger on my ibook for the new owner when i sold it. I've just noticed that my old ibook computer name crops up now again even though my iMac now has a different name. How is this possible?
I'm sharing my files with a Sony Vaio (forgive me i own a laptop too), and when i connect to me network, it shows my path as ''my old ibook computername'(my ip address)'(my name:). Why does it not show my current computer name?
If anyone has any ideas and a solution i would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
iMac Intel 20inch 2Ghz 2GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.7) Running Airport Express, file sharing with Sony Vaio Win XP

Which machine shows your old computer name, the mac or the sony?
If the sony, try opening a dos window and enter
ipconfig /flushdns
I think the equivalent function on the Mac can be found in Network Utility

Our old email address is still showing and it will not let us correct this on any of our devices. We are locked out and cycle through icloud requests.

We got a new email address, and it appears that we successfully changed/updated our itunes/icloud account. When we work from our PC everything looks changed, and is obviously reading from our devices. However, all of our devices still show our old email address as the itunes store/icloud account and none of our devices will let us change this. It keeps asking us to sign in with our old Apple ID, but it won't let us sign in. We've tried multiple passwords and have tried to reset it, but that is not working either. Now, its cycling and keeps popping up...won't let us get to any other screen unless we shut off.
I read the support questions and it said to make sure "find my phone" is shut down, but we can't even do that without a password. Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Change DNS host name automatically when one device is down

Hi all
I am first copying below the question which I have posted in a thread related to DNS few days back .
You cannot vote on your own post
Hi
our network team has setup Bluecoat proxy server in our main office and DR site . We have configured GPO to populate the details of proxy server hostname in the proxy setting eg : Proxy server . IP1 is the IP address for the device in Head office
and IP2 is the IP address assigned for device in DR site. currently we have given a DNS entry as
Proxyserver - IP1.
So DNS resolves the IP address of device in Head office and authentication and internet access works.
But we want to use the DR device to be used automatically (only )when head office device is not reachable. But how to configure the settings for DNS I am not sure.
I don't want to use round robin as it will send the traffic to both head office and DR in a load balancing fashion .
for this request I had received an advice to use a script to monitor the first device continuously and if not reachable then change the Hostname in DNS to that of second device .
Let me know if anyone can help me on this.
Thanks in advance
Midhin

Hi Midhin,
Agree with Jrv, I also recommend you can consult proxy vendor for a better solution.
In addition, if you still want to update host name in DNS via Powershell, please refer to the script to update A record in DNS:
$Zone = "dns zone"
$oldobj = Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName $Zone -RRType "A" -Name "hostname"
$newobj = Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName $Zone -RRType "A" -Name "hostname"
$NewObj.RecordData.IPv4Address = "newipaddress"
Set-DnsServerResourceRecord -NewInputObject $NewObj -OldInputObject $OldObj -ZoneName $Zone
If there is anything else regarding the powershell script issue, please feel free to post back.
Best Regards,
Anna Wang

MI424WR - DNS Host Name Resolution

I have added several DNS entries in the DNS Server section of the MI424WR. These are for my network printer, and I have renamed several Android devices to give them names. When I try to ping any host name that I added to the DNS Server section it does not resolve.
How can I rectify this?
Thanks,
Steve

Are your machines using the DNS Server/Relay in the ActionTec, or are they set to use External DNS Servers? An ipconfig /all readout from the command prompt will tell you this information.

DNS host name under virtual interface??

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what is the purpose of DNS hostname under the virtual interface? Is it a required parameter for web-authentication / how does it affect the web authentication?
Thanks in advance
Jino

The host name under the virtual interface is for if/when you put a third party certificate in the WLC. When you register for the cert, the name you put under the virtual interface is what you use for the cert.

DNS host name for virtual IP on WLC 5760?

Hi all,
Does anybody of you know, if there is a way in setting a DNS hostname for the virtual IP on the 5760 WLC?
The parameter-map does not offer any option.
AireOS based WLCs do offer it in order to see a DNS name instead of the virtual IP when connecting to the captive portal.
Thanks in advance,
Patrick

Hi Stephen/Patrick,
Can you try and confirm if below works?
Switch(config)#parameter-map type webauth global
Switch(config-params-parameter-map)#virtual-ip ipv4 1.1.1.1 ?
virtual-host Virtual host name
Switch(config-params-parameter-map)#virtual-ip ipv4 1.1.1.1 virtual-host

Hi there
Ive recently unintalled a load of plug-ins I dont use, but their names are still showing up in the drop down list in Garageband.
How do I remove them from the list please?

Shall I try deleting
HD/Users/your user name/Library/caches/(folder called)com.apple.garageband
Yes, there might be broken preferences stored, also in
HD/Users/your user name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.garageband.plist
or, for GarageBand 10.0 in

Log off and on again again or restart the system after clearing the caches and preferences.
After removing the preferences, you will have to enter everything again, that you entered usig the Preferences panel in GarageBand.

Host name not showing up under Active Clients

When I go into my router and check active connections, I can see all host names like "Acer Laptop", "IPhone" etc..., IP and MAC address' that are connected to router. Today, when I was in there looking, I saw an asterisk where host name should be for the TouchPad. (it took me a while to figure out it was the TouchPad) Is there a reason why Host name would not show up?
I have gone into "Device Settings" and set "Name" as "Chucks TouchPad". Is that the host name that should be showing on router?
Thank You for any assistance.
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

Sure is, but it will involve some commandline work. First, you're going to need to install the SDK. You only need the Novacom part of the SDK, but AFAIK there's no seperate download for Windows... you have to get the whole thing. The SDK is available here: https://developer.palm.com/content/resources/develop/sdk_pdk_download.html
Next, you're going to need to enable Developer mode on your TouchPad, here's how to do that:
Start a Just Type search and enter webos20090606
A Developer Mode icon will display, tap it
Tap the toggle switch to turn it On
Leave the password blank and tap Sumbit
Close the Developer Mode app
Now, connect your TouchPad to your computer. Next, you're going to find a file called Novaterm.bat. It's buried in the install directory of the SDK. I don't remember the exact path (I don't use Windows anymore) but it's something like C:\Program Files\Palm SDK\Current\bin (keep digging around for bin folders in the C:\Program Files\Palm SDK path and you'll find it eventually). Doubleclick that to start a nice little terminal app. Choose your TouchPad from the drop down list and click connect.
Now, time for some command line stuff. Run the following commands in the terminal:
mount -o remount,rw /
cd /etc/dhcp
vi dhclient.conf
Press the I key on your keyboard to go into edit mode (this is a Vi specific thing)
Remove the # at the beginning of line 14 and change the andare.fugue.com inside the quotes to whatever you want your TouchPad reporting as. For example: #send host-name "andare.fugue.com"; would become send host-name "RidiusTouchPad";
To save your changes, hit the ESC key (to exit edit mode), then type :wq and hit enter. Note there is a colon in there. Again, this is Vi specific stuff.
sync
mount -o remount,ro /
Once you've done this, disable and re-enable your Wi-Fi and your TouchPad should be reporting a hostname. Kind of a lot of work if you ask me (unless you already have the SDK installed).

Old contact's number still showing up

Not a huge issue, more of an annoyance. Friend of mine changed is his number, and I changed it accordingly, yet his old number still shows up during iMessage. I start typing GU... and his new number pops up, but his old shows up beneath it.
I went through contacts on my macbook pro, I went onto iCloud. I can't find the old number anywhere.
Anyone know how to fix this?

I think restore as new rather than from a backup would do it but then you would lose data and settings

Old Server Names Still Showing Up

My office had a server I will call Server1. I recently installed a second server, Server2. Then I renamed both servers to MainServer and BackupServer. The Macs in the office see these servers fine.
Problem is they also still see Server1 and Server2 as separate servers. So in Finder and in the Sidebar I see a list of Server 1, Server2, MainServer and BackupServer.
How do I convince the Mac that there's only two servers with the right names? This is happening on ALL Macs.
Thanks.

This is a flaw in the process. I think your best bet is to contact Support - of the options available probably the nearest is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'More Products and Services', then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password' and click 'Continue'.
