Problem about allow Managed User change Network setting.

I'm IT Support of school. We have over 200 MacBook with 10.4 and 10.5 OS.
Each student can loan MacBook from our school back to home use.
We have two local accounts on both 10.4 and 10.5.
One is admin user for IT Support use.
Another one is "Managed" student account with Parental Control.
The problem is we setup all MacBook connect with our school wireless but most student in home maybe have different broadband network setting....something maybe wireless, PPPoE, DHCP......etc.
We tested even in 10.4 or 10.5 "Managed" accounts also cannot change Network settting or "Locations Profile"....
Any idea can help me solve this problem?
Thanks....

As the administrator you can set up multiple locations. Managed users can change their location under the Apple menu -> Location. An admin password is not needed to change the location. Is this not working for you?

Problem about space management of archived log files

Dear friends,
I have a problem about space management of archived log files.
my database is Oracle 10g release 1 running in archivelog mode. I use OEM(web based) to config all the backup and recovery settings.
I config "Flash Recovery Area" to do backup and recovery automatically. my daily backup schedule is every night at 2:00am. and my backup setting is "disk settings"--"compressed backup set". the following is the RMAN script:
Daily Script:
run {
allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
recover copy of database with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0';
backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
the retention policy is the second choice, that is "Retain backups that are necessary for a recovery to any time within the specified number of days (point-in-time recovery)". the recovery window is 1 day.
I assign enough space for flash recovery area. my database size is about 2G. I assign 20G as flash recovery area.
now here is the problem, through oracle online manual, it said oracle can manage the flash recovery area automatically, that is, when the space is full, it can delete the obsolete archived log files. but in fact, it never works! whenever the space is full, the database will hang up! besides, the status of archived log files is very strange, for example, it can change "obsolete" stauts from "yes" to "no", and then from "no" to "yes". I really have no idea about this! even though I know oracle usually keep archived files for some longer days than retention policy, but I really don't know why the obsolete status can change automatically. although I can write a schedule job to delete obsolete archived files every day, but I just want to know the reason. my goal is to backup all the files on disk and let oracle automatically manage them.
also, there is another problem about archive mode. I have two oracle 10g databases(release one), the size of db1 is more than 20G, the size of db2 is about 2G. both of them have the same backup and recovery policy, except I assign more flash recovery area for db1. both of them are on archive mode. both of nearly nobody access except for the schedule backup job and sometime I will admin through oem. the strange thing is that the number of archived log files of smaller database, db2, are much bigger than ones of bigger database. also the same situation for the size of the flashback logs for point-in-time recovery. (I enable flashback logging for fast database point-in-time recovery, the flashback retention time is 24 hours.) I found the memory utility of smaller database is higher than bigger database. nearly all the time the smaller database's memory utility keeps more than 99%. while the bigger one's memory utility keeps about 97%. (I enable "Automatic Shared Memory Management" on both databases.) but both database's cup and queue are very low. I'm nearly sure no one hack the databases. so I really have no idea why the same backup and recovery policy will result so different result, especially the smaller one produces more redo logs than bigger one. does there anyone happen to know the reason or how should I do to check the reason?
by the way, I found web based OEM can't reflect the correct database status when the database shutdown abnormally. for example, if the database hang up because of out of flash recovery area, after I assign more flash recovery area space and then restart the database, the OEM usually can't reflect the correct database status. I must restart OEM manually to correctly reflect the current database status. does there anyone know in what situation I should restart OEM to reflect the correct database status?
sorry for the long message, I just want to describe in details to easy diagnosis.
any hint will be greatly appreciated!
Sammy

thank you very much, in fact, my site's oracle never works about managing archive files automatically although I have tried all my best. at last, I made a job running daily to check the archive files and delete them.
thanks again.

How can I allow normal user change their LDAP password?

I use Solaris10 + Sun Directory server 5.2SP6 + Samba, how can allow normal user change the password themselves?
Thanks.

Depends on application you are using. I use ColdFusion and here is how I allow users to change their passwords
                    <cfldap action="Modify"
                         dn="uid=#form.UserLogin#,ou=your_ou,dc=example,dc=com"

Problem with Allow Managment of Users privilege

I am trying to set up a repository user to have the privilege
of "Allow Management of Users". After I set this privilege for
user "Bob", I connect as Bob and try to access the RAU. I
continue to get the error message "Bob does not have access to
the Repository Administration Utility".
Have I missed a step? Did I misunderstand the documentation? I
thought that any other user, with this privilege, should be able
to enter the RAU and manage other users (create a user, change
privleges).
Thanks for the help!

Vini,
Found the same problem here. I will bug, use the repository owner

Problem with Oracle 10g RAC VIP network setting at Solaris 9

Dear All,
I have tried to set up a Oracle 10g RAC Release 2.
With OS solaris 9, and 2 nodes.
The nodes setting as the following:
nodes 1:
Public address: 172.16.0.121
Private address: 192.168.0.121, 192.168.1.121 (dual path for heart beat)
nodes 2:
Public address: 172.16.0.122
Private address: 192.168.0.122, 192.168.1.122
And i have assigned two IP adress 172.16.0.131, 172.16.0.132 as the VIP address for the
RAC.
And the following is the /etc/hosts file:
root@shk01 # cat /etc/hosts
# Internet host table
127.0.0.1 localhost
# public address
172.16.0.121 shk01 loghost
172.16.0.122 shk02
# heart beat
192.168.0.121 shk01-priv1
192.168.1.121 shk01-priv2
192.168.0.122 shk02-priv1
192.168.1.122 shk02-priv2
# VIP address
172.16.1.131 vip-shk01
172.16.1.132 vip-shk02
But when i run the command "$ ./runcluvfy.sh comp nodecon -n shk01,shk02 -verbose"
it shows the error:
ERROR:
Could not find a suitable set of interfaces for VIPs.
Result: Node connectivity check failed.
I did try to add the VIP address on bge0:1, as i using bge0 for the public address.
Both nodes i did using the same interface name for it.
Anyone have idea for me to check out the error?
Also, I have other question about the raw device.
As there is option for setting for ASM or raw device. If choosing raw device, does it mean that it just need to
format the storage disk but without newfs it? And then the Oracle program will able to handle it?
Thanks,
Xentar

You don't seem to state categorically that you are using Solaris Cluster, so I'll assume it since this is mainly a forum about Solaris Cluster (and IMHO, Solaris Cluster with Clusterware is better than Clusterware on its own).
Clusterware has to see the same device names from all cluster nodes. This is why Solaris Cluster (SC) is a positive benefit over Clusterware because SC provides an automatically managed, consistent name space. Clusterware on its own forces you to manage either the symbolic links (or worse mknods) to create a consistent namespace!
So, given the SC consistent namespace you simple add the raw devices into the ASM configuration, i.e. /dev/did/rdsk/dXsY. If you are using Solaris Volume Manager, you would use /dev/md/<setname>/rdsk/dXXX and if you were using CVM/VxVM you would use /dev/vx/rdsk/<dg_name>/<dev_name>.
Of course, if you genuinely are using Clusterware on its own, then you have somewhat of a management issue! ... time to think about installing SC?

IPad sync hangs after changing Network Locations

I have a problem where often after I change Network Locations, the next iPad sync will hang in Step 1 of 5 with the progress right under the "e" of Step.
I have let it sit there for hours and it never progresses. I try to eject the iPad, it will never eject it.
I have sort of a formula to recover from this.
* I have to just disconnect the USB cable from the Mac.
* I shut down iTunes.
* I reboot the computer.
* I try to power off the iPad by holding down both buttons.
* It will hang for ever with the little spinning thing going in the middle of the screen.
* I will hold down the both buttons again and it will finally power off the iPad.
* I boot the iPad again.
* I bring up iTunes on the Mac and connect the USB cable and let it try to sync.
* This will fail the first time on Step 5 of 5 with the message "iTunes could not back up the iPad "My's iPad" because an error occurred. OK.
* I click OK.
* I eject the iPad.
* I shutdown iTunes and bring it back up.
* I plug the iPad back in to the MacBook Pro.
Now the iPad will sync and continue to sync normally unless I change my network "Location". Once I change my Network Location there is some probability that iTunes and the iPad will get into this stuck condition.
I've looked at the main console logs and All Messages. I don't see anything obvious.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
Does anyone have some hints about how to debug this?

Hi Mariano,
Your question is about the Management of Change functionality (Component CA-IAM-MOC) I'm not sure that the Enterprise Asset Management group is the best place to post this - but I can't readily identify where on SCN the community for IAM/MOC lives.

How to change a network, managed user to admin user

Im current in a admin, network, managed user of this machine... i will be working from home in a couple of days, i was thinking if im in a network managed account i will not able to log in to my mac. is there a way for me to change it from a network managed user account to a locally admin account?

A network user is automatically converted to a mobile user on a portable Mac at the first login. On a desktop Mac, the conversion is optional. If the conversion is declined and the user opts not to be prompted again, the setting can be undone as follows:
sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.MCX MobileAccountNeverAsk-username
(substituting the short user name for the string username.)

Query on the 'Allow management operating system to share this network adapter' setting?

I have a Hyper-V R2 Test box with 2 NICs. The setting 'Allow management operating system to share this network adapter' was enabled by default on the virtual network that was created as part of adding the Hyper-V role. I configured the virtual network to use the 2nd physical NIC on the box that will be dedicated for VM traffic.
I know that best practise recommends isolating the traffic for host management, and virtual machines between different NICs if possible.
Interestingly, when i unchecked the 'Allow management operating system to share this network adapter' checkbox, one my of my NICs (the one configured for VM traffic) immediately disappears from view in the list of network adapters. At the same time, wiping the static TCP/IP config I have applied to the NIC. Only the virtual switch and management connections remain visible. If i re-enable the above setting, the missing network adapter re-appears but with its previous statically set config wiped.
Q1 Is this expected behaviour?
Q2 In Hyper-V version 1.0, this setting doesn't exist. As such, does that mean the operating system would share the network adapter by default and cannot be disabled from doing so? I assume this is the case, as all of the network adapters are present/visible on the same server, and in the absence of this setting.
TIA for any advice
Mark

It is not that things are hidden - in fact part of the confusion is that too much is shown - it is that they are moved.
Lets go back to the beginning (I am going to describe R2):
If you have a host with two nics and zero External networks - in Network Connections you will see two interfaces.
Go into the Virtual Network Manager and create an External Virtual Network and bind it to NIC 2 - do not select the option for the management OS to share the network.
If you look at Network connections you still see two interfaces, but NIC 2 is now bound to the virtual network protocol - it is dedicated to being a port of the External Network.
This is what happens when you attach a physical NIC to an External Network - it becomes an extension of the External Network - the hypervisor owns it - the management OS does not.
Now - modify the External Virtual Network and turn on the option to share with the management OS.
If you look at Network Connections you will see a new (third) interface.
kThis new interface is a soft interface tht is only exposed to the management OS by the hypervisor - it is a virtual NIC that is attached to the External Network - thus allowing the management OS to share the physical NIC 2 with all the other 'domains'.
In the hypervisor language a 'domain' is a generic way to describe a system managed by the hypervisor - the parent (managemetn os) is domain 0 (dom0) and any VMs are domain 1 through n. Therefore the management OS doe snot own the hardware, the hypervisor does - the management OS just handles managing the VMs and making sure they all play well with each other as well as creation and description, and managing networking and storage. But it is really a special VM.

I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place? I know there are different possibilities to set.
I tried but it not helped for me. What I can do? How and where can set this they stay on their place?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Will not allow me to change a user password

Okay this is a little different. This has gotten me a little puzzled and I am hoping someone with some knowledge about File Vault etc can help.
I have this machine where there is a user name and a password (that we can't remember) with File Vault turned on. We know the master password however the master password will not allow us to change the users password.
We have tried changing the Master Password to ensure that the password is not the issue and that was successful. We tried using the Master Password to try and change another user account (not with File Vault turned on) and it gives us no problems.
I have tried changing the password in System preferences and I get an error message CSSMERRCODE_MEMORYERROR. I tried going to the login screen letting the login attempts time out where it asks for the master password, then it prompts me to reset the password. No matter what I put in the "new" and "verify" (yes they both match) the screen just shakes and won't let me go any further.
I have repaired the permissions and tried resetting the password with the Leopard DVD and also came across no luck. Because the User has File Vault turned on I can not even back up the data so I just delete the account and re-create the user!
I am really stuck here and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay strangely enough, I tried to reset the password back. We had an old File Vault password that we changed to the current one and then changed again during this process. So taking what you said, I reset the Master password to the original one we had a long time ago. It did not allow us to change the password. However when I changed it back to the one we had changed it to a second time, it wouldn't let me change it at the login screen but it allowed me to change it in the Account Management under System Preferences.
So it is fixed. Needless to say I disabled File Vault and it will never be used again! Thank you for your reply it definitely helped me resolve this issue.

How do I allow my users to set the option to save a new timezone for future sessions?

The option to save a newly selected timezone for future sessions has been greyed-out
in the Calendar Client. How can I allow my users to choose this option?
<P>
This is controlled by the settimezone setting on the Calendar Server. By
default, it is set to FALSE. You can change the value to TRUE in the
unison.ini settings. The
Calendar Server must be restarted for the change to take effect.

Hi,
Based my research, OOB SharePoint don’t allow anonymous users to contribute contents(Edit, Upload and Add) into list and library.
This is by design behavior, and it’s a consideration about security in order to help protect your site from potential script injection attacks.
For anonymous users, only the View Item permission is available for libraries.
If you want to know more about this, please refer to
