Problem with ESM on some computers

We have been having a problem with ESM on some older computers. The
computers all seem to be older computers running WinXP SP2 (Dell
OptiPlex SX260). The computers have the Novell client, either 4.91 SP4
or SP5, and either have the Microsoft client for Microsoft Networks
turned off (unchecked) or uninstalled. The computer will be running
fine, we'll install ESM on them and then when the computer comes up
after that it won't login properly. It will accept the login, but then
says access denied but keeps going. All drive mappings fail with a 470
error code and the login script ends with an 8885 error. I look in the
Novell client and it says that the user is authenticated to the tree and
connected to the servers but can't access anything on them. I can try
logging in as many times as I want and it won't map the drives. If I
try to get to the NSS volumes using UNC paths, it won't work. I can try
a UNC path with the IP address instead of the name and still the same story.
We've found two ways around the problem and neither are acceptable:
1. Remove ESM
2. Go into the network control panel and uncheck the Senforce ESS
Filter Engine. After that, I can try to login and it goes right
through. I don't even have to logout, just right-click on the red N and
choose login. Everything maps just fine.
The firewall is set to all open so it isn't blocking the ports. Or at
least it isn't set to block them.
I say we've had the problems on the SX260's. We've only tried this on
SX260's and a small number of newer Dell desktops and laptops (Optiplex
740, 745, 755, Latitude D620, D630). Only the SX260's are having the
problem. They also, however, are the ones with the Microsoft client for
Microsoft Networks either turned off or uninstalled.
We're about to open another SR with Novell support but it is difficult
for us to leave a computer in a non-working state so we can work with
support on it.
Any ideas?

Sean,
I have seen login issue with the Novell client and zesm if a firewall is enabled.
Is it possible to do the following:
Right click the ZESM client and go to About
Click Diagnostics, Logging and select all
Once you have logging enabled on the client please duplicate the issue.
Please post or attach the log so we can see it.
You will find the log in c:\documents and settings\all users\application data\senforce\logs

    I just heard a news report that there is a problem with malware in mac computers that came through a recent java update. Is this true? If so, what should be done about it?

    As usual those "news" reports mangled the facts and got most of the story completely wrong. This particular attack did not arise through a Java update, it was distributed through a fraudulent Flash download popup window, or malicious websites that Safari is designed to block.
    If you run Java on your Mac you may be vulnerable to this malware. If you do not run Java there is no risk. If you routinely keep your Mac up to date with Software Update the risk is greatly reduced.
    Shut off the mass market junk that masquerades as "news" and read this to learn some real facts:

  • Firefox does not load long images, pixelates images if they are not in their original size, and has problems with thumbnails (in some sites)

    Firefox has problems with images.
    In sites like deviantART or ImageShack with full-view option, images that are not in full size/thumbnails get slightly pixelated e.g. http://img251.imageshack.us/f/screenshot2tq.jpg/
    Long images get completely messed up if full-viewed e.g. http://img689.imageshack.us/f/screenshot5z.jpg/ (though if the file is only big, it loads just fine)
    Also, thumbnails in some sites get messed up e.g. http://img201.imageshack.us/f/screenshotyr.jpg/
    And in general, Firefox has more 'glitches' like not allowing to add more search engines. It wasn't like that before and I can only assume that it got messed up somewhere with updates, but I'm not really sure.
    I've tried cleaning out cache, re-installing Firefox (multiple times) and even downloaded Firefox 4 beta, but the problem remains.
    I use Ubuntu.
    Does anyone else have similar problems? Or know where the problem lies?

    Do you have the latest driver for your graphics display card?
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

    Hey everyone,
    I just switched to Arch and have problems with getting the GTK+ themes to work. Some applications (i.e. pcmanfm, firefox) use the theme I set with lxappearance and other like transmission still look ugly. Any ideas what am I doing wrong?

    Another possibility is that you have the correct theme but don't have the associated theme engine installed.  Poke around the themes a bit:
    For a GTK2 theme: in the "theme/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" file look for the line that says "engine" and a name.  Make sure you have that name installed.
    For a GTK3 theme: in the "theme/gtk-3.0/gtk.css" file also look for "engine" and the name.  Also make sure that engine is installed.
    Themes are almost always in "/usr/share/themes/theme_name"
    The files you look for to see which engine a theme uses may be in different files than the ones specified above, poke around in the files.  The file that specifies the engine will be a text file so you can look at them using "less" or an alternative.

  • Problems with multiple iTunes accounts/computers

    Hey everyone, I have a bit of a problem with iTunes. The whole setup is a bit convoluted, here's the layout. My brother and I both have iPhones. He uses my account to buy things, but has a separate library. Recently, my computer crashed, so I took his old one and he bought a new one. I now have his old computer, with his iTunes library, and he has a new one. I just want to sync my phone to the computer and be able to manage my iTunes through this computer, so I created a separate user on this computer. When I load iTunes under this user, the library is empty, save 3 songs that I believe automatically come with iTunes. When I connect my phone, it lets me back it up, but I can't do anything else. I can play music, but not edit or download. I have no clue what to do with all this, it would really just be easiest to uninstall iTunes I feel but I don't know if he would lose his music or anything. Thanks for any help!

    Jake,
    I did not read past that point.  Unless you have one account per person, you are going to have a mess.

  • Problems with CRC in some windows app's whit zip files generated with Java

    Hello,
    That is very strange but, we have an app for compressing a folder into a zip. For making, we use the Java.Util.Zip API. Our zip file looks fine, we can unzip the files into another folder without problems, even we can open the file with Winzip or Winrar.
    But, we had encountered problems with anothers win apps like "Recovery ToolBox", or another win app built with the "Dynazip.dll" library. This apps give us the next error.
    "Bad Crc".
    But if we unzip this "corrupt" file and we zip the content again, all work without errors.
    [http://img297.imageshack.us/i/dibujoou.jpg/]
    Our code (this function only zips a single file):
        public static File zipFile(String sFile, String sNameFileIn, String sFileOut)
                throws IOException {
            File file = new File(sFile);
            FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(sFileOut);
            FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(file);
            byte[] fileContent = new byte[(int) file.length()];
            fin.read(fileContent);
            ByteArrayOutputStream bout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
            ZipOutputStream zout = new ZipOutputStream(bout);
            ZipEntry zipEntry = new ZipEntry(sNameFileIn);
            zout.putNextEntry(zipEntry);
            zout.write(fileContent, 0, fileContent.length);
            zout.closeEntry();
            zout.finish();
            zout.flush();
            zout.close();
            out.write(bout.toByteArray());
            out.flush();
            out.close();
            File fich = new File(sFileOut);
            fin.close();
            return fich;
        }I try to calculate the crc number for my own without success... I don't know what's happening
    Thanks in advance

    FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(sFileOut);ZipOutputStream zout = new ZipOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(sFileOut));
    byte[] fileContent = new byte[(int) file.length()];Here you are assuming the file size is <= Integer.MAX_VALUE. What if it isn't? Remove.
    fin.read(fileContent);Here you are assuming you filled the buffer. There is nothing in the API specification to warrant that assumption. Remove. See below.
    ByteArrayOutputStream bout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    ZipOutputStream zout = new ZipOutputStream(bout);Remove.
    ZipEntry zipEntry = new ZipEntry(sNameFileIn);
    zout.putNextEntry(zipEntry);Correct.
    zout.write(fileContent, 0, fileContent.length);int count;
    byte[] buffer = new byte[8192];
    while ((count = fin.read(buffer)) > 0)
    zout.write(buffer, 0, count);
    zout.closeEntry();Correct.
    zout.finish();
    zout.flush();Redundant but not incorrect.
    zout.close();Correct.
    out.write(bout.toByteArray());
    out.flush();
    out.close();Remove.
    File fich = new File(sFileOut);
    fin.close();
    return fich;I don't know why this method returns a File constructed out of one of its own arguments, which the caller could equally well do for himself, otherwise OK.

  • Downloaded latest update ios 5.1.1.last night - now have problem with my email some being sent others not - any ideas?

    Downloaded latest update for iphone 4 ios 5.1.1. last night - now having problems with my emails - all show being sent - but not being received also no b.c.c. to myself coming up on iphone.  Any ideas?? 

    The passcode settings simply give you the option of having the passcode lock immediately you lock the screen, or after a delay period.  If you set a delay the passcode lock will not activate for the period of the delay.  I have mine set to one minute.  It is a "convenience" measure to save me having to re-enter the passcode if I lock the screen then immediately remember that there was something else I wanted to do.  Obviously this entails a small compromise on security and if you are at all concerned then you should set the passcode to "Immediately".  It really has nothing to do with the camera short-cut (though loads of users seem to have run away with this notion).  It would be the same if you just did "slide to unlock" during the delay period.

  • WRT160N v2 - problems with WPA2 and some questions about N

    Hi guys
    WRT160N V2 (F/W 2.0.03)
    So I've been operating on Wireless G with WEP for a good while because of the problems I had in the past. The other day I decided to try again with the "N" and the WPA2... and spent 4 hours going around in circles; now I'm on B/G Mixed/WPA-PSK.
    When I tried to use "N", (by enabling "Mixed" with everything else set to "Auto") even my HTC Sensation would only pick up a "G" connection... and all my laptops (which are not "N" capable) would not connect at all. So I ditched that and looked at the encryption and authentication.
    When I enabled "WPA2" "AES/TKIP", my machines and phones would either not connect at all, failed to get an IP address, or connected fine with an IP address but routing wasn't working... and these symptoms seemingly occurred randomly - no direct device correlation and one device might show all the symptoms at different times.
    I dropped down to WPA, and (touch wood) everything seems to be working at the moment... but I don't trust it. Can you tell me what I need to do to get this working on N and WPA2? Have I missed a firmware update?
    p.s. Is this model 2.4GHz or 5GHz please?
    Cheers

    That's 2.4.. G network would only work in this case since you don't have N cards on your computers
    Check out this article so you know what security you can set on your computers, some devices are not WPA capable so you might want to think about that too.

  • Ios6.0.1 = Problem with office network desktop computers

    Hi,
    We have a few iPhones connected onto our office computer network via a WIFI router.
    While those iPhones were running IOS 5, we had no issues.
    Now, since IOS 6 - and even IOS 6.0.1 is running on those iPhones, I have 2 iPhones causing network issues to DESKTOP COMPUTERS when connected to the office network through WIFI.
    Basically, when those iPhones are connected to our network via WIFI, always the same 2 desktop computers then have network connectivity issues.
    Those computers have the following IP address:
    Computer A: 192.168.1.92
    Computer B: 192.168.1.103
    When let's say iPhone A is connected to the WIFI router, then Computer A starts to have network issue - ping does not work anymore - or only randomly - user cannot printed - computer cannot connect to Windows Shares anymore.
    I have found about that by changing the IP address of the computer the problem was then solved.
    I have then check the IP address used by the iPhone A ... it is not the original one used by the Computer A ... It is a different IP address provided by our DHCP server ... so the problem is not there (?).
    I then ran an nmap request on 192.168.1.92 while Computer A had issue ...and found on that the MAC ADDRESS reported was not the one of Computer A - but the one of iPhone A !!!
    So, when iPhone A connects to the network via WIFI - it seems to confuse the switches despites not having the same IP address ...
    If I ask my collegue to switch the WIFI off on his iPhone, then the problem disappear straight away ... No more issue with the computer and its IP address 192.168.1.92 ... and nmap then reports the correct computer MAC ADDRESS.
    The same problem happens with Computer B and iPhone B ...
    We have RESET NETWORK settings on both iPhones but this did now solved the issue.
    Can someone help out ?
    Thanks & regards
    GL

    I'd say the scope of your dhcp server is probably overlapping your fixed ip addresses on your desktops
    Could be due to the lease time the reason your not seeing the ip addresses on the devices you expect
    Could also be a rouge dhcp server somewhere

  • Has anyone encountered problem with VIRSA_CC_ACTUSAGE missing some data?

    Has anyone encountered a problem where the VIRSA_CC_ACTUSAGE table is missing some transaction activity?
    We have a situation where the monthly ST03 file shows that a user executed the MI31 transaction some time back in August.  However our ACTUSAGE table does not show this user performing MI31 for any day in August. 
    It does have records of other people using MI31 in August.  It also has records of this same user performing other transactions in August.  It even has records showing other transactions this same user performed in August.
    This is now an issue with our external Auditors.
    We are on GRC 5.3 SP 13.
    Thanks.

    Hi Bob,
    VIRSA_CC_ACTUSAGE holds information on the transactions executed by users and it gets the data from STAD. Did you notice the time user has spent in the MI31 transaction code (I know even if the user hasn't spent more time, it should be recorded), but this another step to isolate the issue.Also, check SM21 logs on that specific day, and see if there are any events registered during that time related to STAD. I think it was not able to collect the data.
    Also, check VIRSA_CC_ALTCDLOG. This is the Alter log table that stores information of ACTUSAGE. The purge utility will only delete the data from the ACTUSAGE, but it remains in the ALTCDLOG.
    Refer to SAP Note 1512020 for additional details on the Alert files.
    Hope this helps!!

    Hello guys,
    The problem now has changed. I just realized that if the bluetooth is not working and I put the pc to sleep when I start it again in most of the times the problem is gone, it may start working right away or even some seconds after it left the sleep mode. I tried checking it a few times and it happened 4 out of 5 times I tried. But after the Bluetooth starts working again if  I turn the computer off (shut down) and turn it back on later or even if I restart the laptop, then the problem starts happening all over again, until I put it to sleep and turn it on from spleep mode. This problem is really weird to me. 
    I am thinking that maybe there is some feature in the windows 8 that is not allowing the bluetooth to start when the computer starts from shut down or from restart, but that doesn't block the bluetooth when it is put to sleep.
    Does anybody has any idea of what is going on and how to solve it?
    Thank you all for your help so far, I appreciate it.
