One server in the tree asks for credentials

Hi,
On Windows 7 with Novell client 2 SP3 (IR3), I am able to type \\SERVERA in the file explorer and I am connected to this server. However, typing \\SERVERB (which is in the same tree) asks for my credentials. This happens not only on my workstation.
If I reboot SERVERB, all is fine for some days, but the problem comes back. I suspect that one of the novell processes is dying but I cannot see which one.
thanks,
Marc Delisle

If the logs show nothing at all, then I'd say the culprit is ncp or ncpengine died or is having issues.
Normally it would log things and you'll see the userid and attempts to access files, etc. showing up.
You may need to open an SR to figure out why ncp is dying.
I'm not sure if you can restart the ncp processes, to be honest, and maybe that would show something.
NRM doesn't use ncp for authentication, that I'm aware of. If you use a non-root user I believe it uses LUM at that point.

  • Variable Data Set has only one thing but the error asks for more

    Hi -
    I have a PSD (CS5, Win7) where I've defines 5 layers with variable names. One of them is the Heading layer with the variable named varHeading.  The Data Set I'm importing is very simple in that only the Heading layer will change. I'm gone over the construction of this text file a number of times but when I try to Import it as a Data Set I get the error:
    "Could not parse the file contents as a data set.  There were not enough variable names in the first line of the text file."
    varHeading
    "BABY CAR SEAT AECC0841"
    "BABY CAR SEAT AECC0842"
    "BABY CAR SEAT AECC0843"
    "BABY CAR SEAT AECC0844"
    "BABY CAR SEAT AECC0845"
    My first question is - does the number of variables stored in the PSD file have to match the variable names in the first line of the text file??
    If NOT - can someone please help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?
    TIA your expert input.
    j2

    When you say you have defined 5 layers with variable names are you trying to attach the data set, that has one column, to each one at the same time? Did you create the data set in the Photoshop Data Sets Dialog ? The error that you are getting pops up when you have defined more variables than you have in your data set.

    Hi All, 
    I setup 2 Mac Minis, 'setup in a no-apple id. Now with Mini1 I installed a shared printer from Windows7 Pc it ask for credentials then I input Adminstrator account and the password ticking the remember in "keychain"
    I run a test print and its seamless. I reboot the Mini1 and run test print again and its good.
    Now in Mini2 I did the same installation on shared printer but it is asking for user credential again and again, there is a check mark in "remember in keychain but still gives a notice that "requires authentication" I put the admin creadentials same with Mini1 then it prints.
    every time I print on Mini2 its always asking for a user & password before Printing. How can we fix it.
    I tried
    - lpd printing = "authentication required"
    - reset printer settings ang re-install printer = "authentication required"
    - replace sharename in windows7, reinstall printer in Mini2 = "authentication required"
    This stuff never happened to Mini1.

    Hi,
    I have a 2 way trust between a Windows 2008 R2 and a W 2012 R2 server which works fine.
    I can access shares on both sites without a problem. Then I have this Synology diskstation which is added to one of both domains. I can access the shares of it in 1 domain, but in the other domain I'm asked for credentials.
    Please advise.

  • Outlook 2010 + Exchange 2010 keeps asking for credentials - Please Help!

    Hello All,
    Recently after a Windows Update + restart of my Exchange Server I'm having an issue with Outlook 2010 where it continually asks for credentials. Every 5 minutes or so the credentials popup appears and either typing your password or clicking cancel will make
    Outlook work as expected again until the next popup, frequency of popups is about 2-5 minutes give or take. I am using Exchange 2010 on Server 2008 R2 and aside from the popup everything is working as expected. This seems to be effecting almost all users.
    Some things I've tried already include:
    - Removing any saved credentials on computer
    - Removing and recreating Outlook Mail Profiles
    - Running "Set-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory -Identity 'autodiscover (default Web site)' -WindowsAuthentication $true -BasicAuthentication $false" in shell to disable basic authentication for autodiscover
    - Running "get-outlookanyhwere | set-outlookanywhere -ClientAuthenticationMethod NTLM -IISAuthenticationMethods NTLM" in shell to ensure that outlook anywhere and IIS are using NTLM authentication
    - Ensuring that the OAB folder permissions are set to allow Authenticated Users to Read/Execute
    Anyways, if anybody has additional suggestions for me I'd very much appreciate them. Many users are using the Web App for the time being (with no issues) since the credentials popup is too annoying for them.

    So I made sure that all of my authentication methods match the settings you linked me and then recycled the app pool you mentioned but am still having the issue.
    One thing I noticed is that if a user experiencing the problem types their password into the credentials popup it will keep popping up continuously but if they hit cancel it says "Needs Password" where it would normally say "Connected to Microsoft Exchange"
    and if they simply click once where it says "Needs Password" then all of a sudden it switches to "Connected to Microsoft Exchange" again and they no longer see the popup until Outlook is restarted.
    Just to verify I have the proper settings now this is what shell returns:
    [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | fl *auth*
    CertificateAuthentication     :
    InternalAuthenticationMethods : {Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
    ExternalAuthenticationMethods : {Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
    LiveIdSpNegoAuthentication    : False
    WSSecurityAuthentication      : True
    LiveIdBasicAuthentication     : False
    BasicAuthentication           : False
    DigestAuthentication          : False
    WindowsAuthentication         : True
    [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory | fl *auth*
    InternalAuthenticationMethods : {Basic, Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
    ExternalAuthenticationMethods : {Basic, Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
    LiveIdSpNegoAuthentication    : False
    WSSecurityAuthentication      : True
    LiveIdBasicAuthentication     : False
    BasicAuthentication           : True
    DigestAuthentication          : False
    WindowsAuthentication         : True
    Do you have any additional suggestions that I can try? From what I can tell my authentication methods all match the default settings now.
    Edit: As soon as I changed EWA to just Basic Authentication as it says in the linked default settings I would get an error when trying to browse to the EWA that said "Outlook failed to initialize" and re-adding the Windows Authentication, then running iisreset
    fixed the issue. Therefore EWA is the only service with non-default authentication methods now.

  • Microsoft Lync 2010 continuously asks for credentials after signing in

    Hi,
    we have lync 2010 frontend server at our office, it is working fine for the all the users, but one user who will connect our network through VPN it will continuously prompts for credentials eventhough if we are providing right credentials, because of this
    user will be not able to recieve emails from his outlook. all other VPN users working fine. how to troubleshoot this issue, please any help?
    Regards
    Asha

    Hi,
    The issue may occur if the Outlook integration is not correctly on this client after connecting through VPN. What is the
    difference for the location or sign in type between this user and other working users?
    Lync generally only prompts you for credentials after you are logged in when it must connect Lync to a linked service such as the Microsoft Exchange Free/Busy service or the Calendar service.
    If Lync continues to ask for credentials after three separate dialog prompts, there is likely an issue with Outlook integration or with the Exchange services themselves. I suggest referring to the following information to check the issue.

  • Outlook 2013 asks for credentials but does not connect for Exchange email, but only when out of office

    Hi,
    New employee wishes to use his Office 365. Have loaded onto new PC, connected to exchange, loaded his folders, everything is fine.
    When he leaves the office and connects at home, he is asked for credentials.
    I have tried the usual credentials: [email protected] and domain\user
    With each attempt, Outlook displays disconnected
    The password is correct, OWA he can log on fine, he has no problem when returning to the office. He has all the correct permissions in AD.
    No other user has a problem when away from the office, but every other user is using Office 2010
    Advice appreciated.

    Hi,
    Please make sure the user has enable Outlook Anywhere in Outlook.
    To turn on Outlook Anywhere, on the Connection tab, under
    Outlook Anywhere, check Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP, and then click
    Exchange Proxy Settings. Your Exchange admin must enable this feature and provide you the proxy settings. For more information, please refer:

  • Crystal asking for credentials

    I have a new SQL 2005 instance on the same server as the previous instance and have changed the data source of Crystal reports to use the new instance.
    Now the reports ask for login credentials though I pass them with the request. If I point the report back to the previous DB instance, the credentials pass through fine and the reports run.
    I'm seeing some kerberos errors on our report server but haven't been able to diagnose what's being dropped going against the new DB.

    You may need to strip off the location of the original database
    Something like:
    For Each crTable in crTables
         crTableLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo
         crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo
         crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo)
         crTable.Location = crTable.Location.SubString(crTable.Location.LastIndexOf(".")+1)
    Next
    The issue may be that if you designed the report against the old database and installed the new database on the same machine the report will try and use the old database.
    This is because the old database is saved with the report and if you point the report to that machine it will see the old database sitting there and try and use it.
    The last line in the above code strips that out and should allow you to hit the new database.
    Of course this assumes that this is the issue you are running into

  • Shared Public folders keep on asking for credentials

    Hello
    My problem is less complex than it might look like, it's just difficult to explain correctly. Now:
    I have multiple computers on my home LAN, with various user accounts, without a HomeGroup. They all share some files, have a "Private" network, Public Folder Sharing enabled and "password protected sharing" disabled.
    So their configuration is identical. 
    These computers are 2 Windows 7 PLK computers, one Windows 8.1 ENU, one Windows 8.1 PLK and finally one 8.1 branded by Lenovo. I'll call them 7, 8EN, 8PL and 8B to avoid lenghty phrases. And now the part that makes no sense at all:
    Here's my problem: Win7 computers can easily access Win8 shares. It works both ways: all Win8 computers can access the Win7 shares. But... 8EN cannot access the 8B shares without asking for credentials (?!). Those are the same files that are being accessed
    with no problem by any Win7 or even WinXP machines. I can't share anything in 8 without making other 8's ask for credentials(but 7 works). Moreover - I can provide a random string as a username and no password and I'll get the access to the Public folders.
    So the access is there, but I have to provide any credentials to reach it. Without it, the first try is rejected. It's clearly wrong.
    HomeGroup helps. But I don't want a HomeGroup, I switch places often, HG annoys me and finally - I don't want to sound rude but "a proper way is to use a HomeGroup" is not an answer to "why did the sharing between my 8's stopped working while
    nobody else seem to have such problems with their 8's, and 7's work fine".
    What on earth could possibly make it happen? I reinstalled my Windows 8 and they still cannot communicate with other 8's? Is it the language? but the PLK is just a language pack, the insides are still ENU.
    Thank you for any help and have a nice day!

  • SBS2008 in combination with Outlook 2013 keeps asking for credentials

    I've got a SBS 2008 server with windows 7 pro clients.
    Some of them use outlook 2010 and some use 2013.
    The users which use the 2013 version has a problem with saving of the credentials.
    Every time they start outlook 2013 they will be asked for credentials and some of them 5 times before it starts.
    The weird thing is: if you click ESC to close the screen that asks for the credentials, outlook still connects to the mailbox.
    Is there someone who can tell me how to fix this problem.

    Hi Willy-Billy,
    Any update? Would you please let me know the current situation of this issue?
    In addition, would you please let me confirm something more?
    Please check if problematic user accounts access mailbox correctly via OWA.
    If you create a new outlook profile for a problematic account, will encounter the same issue?
    As mentioned in the link that Robert provided, please check if you enable
    Always prompt for logon credentials setting in Outlook 2013.
    If you enable this setting, please uncheck and monitor the result.
    Meanwhile, please remove the old credential in
    Credential Manager, then add again. Please check if this issue still persists.
    Please run
    SBS 2008 BPA to collect SBS configuration information and analysis. Then check if you can find some clues.

    Hi Cris,
    Please try to clean up the cached credential in your computer. Then fill in with the format of UPN when it prompted for credentials next time and check the Remember my credential to save it. About how to remove cached credentials, please follow these steps:
    1. Launch the Credential Manager from Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Credential Manager.
    2. In the Generic Credentials section you’ll see a setting for [MS Outlook] which will include your SSO details. Click the downward-pointing arrow to the right of that value.
    3. In the expand details, click Remove from vault. Then Outlook will no longer have a stored copy of your password.

  • SCCM 2012: application catalog asks for credentials

    Hi,
    Our application catalog was working fine for weeks. Now suddenly it asks for credentials, the sccm-server is added to trusted sites.
    Please advise.

    Jan Hoedt

    Disable it in client settings. Run a machine policy retrieval on an effected device. Confirm the policy run has complete in the policyevaluator.log. Check IE and confirm it's not trusted. Re-enable the setting and re-run process. Check it works or not.
    Also ensure that nothing in GPO is overwriting what you have set in client settings.
