Question about RADIUS server configuration with a MacBook Pro

Hello,
I own a modem router which is capable of WPA2 Enterprise and I want to use it with a RADIUS server for authentication and security purposes.
However, I have a few doubts about this.
MY CONFIGURATION:
The modem router would be connected to a fixed PC with Windows and to a MacBook Pro (both with Ethernet)
The RADIUS server would be running on the MacBook Pro (freeRADIUS)
The bold is the issue, that comes when I disconnect the MBP (it's a notebook, so I use it disconnected from the router sometimes).
Supposing the router would have recognized it (correct configuration), it would disconnect from it.
My questions:
Would Wi-Fi be lost in this manner? Or would the modem router automatically switch to another Wi-Fi authentication?
If I reconnected the MBP to the modem router and re-run the RADIUS server, would I need to access the control panel and re-configure the WPA2 Enterprise in order for Wi-Fi to work again?
Thanks in advance,
Tyrexionibus

"Full HD 3DD camcorder..." Marketing at it's best.
This is HDV, right? HDV has the same data rate as DV...13.6GB/hour. But because of the MPEG-2 Long GOP format the HDV format employs, it can be a bit tough to edit, but mainly when rendering effects. IT will be slower than DV, and you can't monitor thru the camera like you can with DV, but a simple FW400 drive and Intel Mac will be fine. Better if you can convert to ProRes upon ingest, but then that eats up a LOT more space and requires at least FW800...

Question on how networking works with new Macbook Pro

Hi,
I have a question about how networking works with my new Macbook Pro. This is my first laptop so am new to mobile computing. I am about to configure it to replace my desktop which uses a wired DSL connection. Once I have my Macbook Pro configured to run off the DSL modem, what happens when I take this computer to a location that has ethernet? Will just plugging in the ethernet cable be enough to get on line? Or is there further configuration work that needs to be done?
I used a Windows laptop from work and all I had to do was plug it in to a hotel ethernet cable to get on line. However, this laptop was never configured to run on my DSL network so I am not certain if that makes things more complicated.
Thanks for your help!

Hi
Your MacBook Pro should just work when plugged into an ethernet connection.
Just check something, Open Network Preferences, you can select it from the Airport icon in the menu bar.
In the left-hand pane click on Ethernet and just check that it is set to configure using DHCP in the right-hand pane, that's it.
So when you plug in the ethernet cable it will ask the router for an IP address and off you go.
I assume that any system you plug into will use DHCP rather than static IP addresses. If it is a static IP address, you will need to manually configure the ethernet settings by inputting the IP address and subnet mask info plus DNS servers.
Usually it is done with DHCP and you don't have to do a thing and likewise your home DSL is DHCP?
If not then you will have to change your settings, make a 'Hotel' setting which you can use when in hotels and keep your 'Home' set-up for when you are at home. In the pull down menu select Edit Locations to add new ones.

Questions re. SCSI drive with older Macbook Pro/FCP

Hello:
I am editing ProRes video files (and a lot of them) in FCP. My current external Firewire drive is sooo slow.
I want to upgrade to a really fast SCSI drive but my Macbook Pro doesn't seem to have a SCSI card/connector.
So two questions...
1) What SCSI drive would be best (what works good for you)
2) Can install a SCSI card/interface into my Macbook Pro myself?
Many thanks

SCSI? Sure about that? That's a darn old interface. I think there are newer versions of it, but they will not work with MacBook Pros. Laptops have limited options. Firewire 800 (FW400 on some models)...and if you happen to have an Express34 slot, you can get an eSATA adapter. And some raid makers make Express34 connections for their SAS drives. But eSATA is about as fast as you will get on a lappy. And that is pretty fast.

Questions about installing SSD on my 2010 Macbook Pro

Hey there.
I have a Macbook Pro 2010. 15 inches and 2.4 GHz.
I was planning to upgrade only the memory from 4gb to 8, but realized that while I was at it, I might as well upgrade the hdd to an ssd as well.
I've lurked around the internet on how to install and set up a solid state drive onto my mbp, and I got the installation part alright (open back, T6 screwdriver, etc etc).
I'm concerned more about the set up - the process after in which I install my ssd, and installing the OSX - I have not yet found a site with solid step - by - step instructions into doing this.
Cloning? TRIM? I am getting very confused, and mildly frustrated.
So basically, after I physically install my SSD (which will be a Samsung 840 by the way), screw the bottom lid back on, then what?
Just in case this helps: I have the official cd for the Snow Leopard, as well as the application dvd and ilife. A lot of people are saying something like install Lion via internet or a purchased usb. Can i simply just install my snow leopard by the cd, and then upgrade it to lion after?
And I know that the 2010 mbp does not support SATA3. Im buying it simply for future upgrades.
Thanks for reading my post.

Let's see if I can help...
You already are aware that you can't have SATA III speeds, but you're already ahead of me on that one - I always suggest anticipating for future needs.
You've already made your choice of drive (and size, I'm guessing) and you know that you'll need a Phillips #00 and a Torx T6 screwdriver. I'm assuming that you've watched plenty of videos...
...so now, how to get everything working? What I would do is to buy an inexpensive USB enclosure for your old drive, install the new SSD and boot from the old drive, use Disk Utility from the old drive to format the SSD as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a single GUID partition, and then use Carbon Copy Cloner (free for 30 days) to clone your old drive to your new drive (this is assuming that your SSD has similar space as your old HD?).
It's a simple procedure - pretty simply outlined here -> https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4122.
The only uh-oh is if you have far more data on your HD than space available on your new SSD. That presents a new challenge. Write back if my method won't work because of space issues.
Oh, and I use Trim Enabler to enable TRIM on my SSD - the only drawback is that every time there's a .1 update to OS X, you must run it again and restart.

Help with connecting MacBook Pro with Cisco Routing and Switches?

I'm running a CiscoASA 5510 router with several Cisco WS-C2960-48TT-L switches on a local network to connect with MacBook Pro. I need to be able to restrict access to specific users via their computer MAC address. ie: Joe Blow is limited to connecting through Switch 1 on port 10 and anywhere else he tries to plug in will simply not work.

You need to look at the documentation that came with your router and switches. Or ask your network admin to set it up. Your question has nothing to do with your Macbook Pro configuration. MAC filtering is done in the router not in the computers/devices connecting to the router.

Hi, i've just got a problem with my macbook pro: I bought it two years ago and suddenly, it stopped working. Im freaking out. No answer from the people hwo suposed to know about these problems. Any tip??

Help!
i had a problem with my macbook pro: on tuesday 16th (agoust, 2011) I went to a friend's house and show her some document i had in my computer, then i turned off my mac and it asked me: "there are some actualizations available, do you want to update before turn off?" i clicked on yes, waited for update and then the macbook turned off. When I got back home, I tried to turn it on again.... but nothing: it didn't sound baaaammmmm as allways, it didn't reacted. I tried again, but useless.
The next day i went to one of these "authorized management centers", but they coudn't say anything or do anything about it. First they told me the problem was the battery, then the hard disk, then the video card... but don't. I left my mac there by two weeks, hoping they could help me, but they didn't. So I picked it up and go to other place.
The rare thing is that i have just two years with my mac, and i didn't do anything stupid on it (didn't fall, get wet, microwave, hot, shocked, hit or anything) It just stopped working. Two times it turned on. But if not, it's the same story:
When i pushed the button to turn on, sounds like baaaaaammmm, but then again, and again, and again, and the screen doesn't get blue or anything, it appears a foder with a "?" and then the computer turns off...
Im wondering if this is a problem on this computers, because some of my friends told me things much like that that happened with their macbooks.
What's going on??? why this is happening?? cn you help me?

This article may help: A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac.

Questions about application server architecture

Hello guys,
I have few questions about application server architecture�
I have a task to build a server application which will do the following: Clients (special java clients) will connect to it and send some data for further processing on server side. Chunks of data will be relatively small but they will take a lot of time for processing (it is ok that it will be quite slow).
Also server will run some sort of �database� where all clients� working data will be stored. So, in case a client loses its data he/she is always able to download it from the server.
For me it seems, like server will consist of the following components:
1. �Reception�. This part will be responsible for all client-communication procedures.
2. �Data storage�. This part will simply store all clients� data and provide some API interface for clients through �reception� to manage it (add/get/delete and so on).
3. �Processor�. Some sort of dummy-sophisticated module. It will take some input data from �data storage� when it receives order for this and process it. �Processor� will have two states: �busy� which means �processor� processing some data and �available� which means �processor� ready to process new data.
4. �Manager�. This part will always check �data storage� for new data and �processor� for availability. When �processor� and new data are available �manager� will make an order for �processor� to take new data from �data storage� and process it.
So, my question is the following: Which technology and approaches I should use to realize my plan?
I think that I can make �reception� as a Session Bean, but I don�t know yet, what are the best for the rest, for example �manager� and �processor�. I was thinking about writing my own application server (and I can do it), but I would like to learn j2ee technologies, so I think it is a perfect chance for me (I read a lot about j2ee before I wrote this post, but all examples have only �account�-�bill�-�money transfer� I think it is quite far away from reality or I am doing something wrong ;-)!
p.s. I am thinking about using JBoss as an Application Server. I tested it and wrote some tests. They work and run fast enough, so I like it. Moreover it has module architecture.
Please, give me some advises and tips!
Thank you in advance!

1. �Reception�. This part will be responsible for all
client-communication procedures.Session bean with remote interface.
2. �Data storage�. This part will simply store all
clients� data and provide some API interface for
clients through �reception� to manage it
(add/get/delete and so on).Session bean that will use entity beans or hibernate to work with persistant data.
3. �Processor�. Some sort of dummy-sophisticated
module.Use a message driven bean. Make Reception to enqueue a message when new data is available for processing. Processor will process the data and store the resut in database using Data Storage session bean.
4. �Manager�. This part will always check �data
storage� for new data and �processor� for
availability. When �processor� and new data are
available �manager� will make an order for
�processor� to take new data from �data storage� and
process it.It's redundand component, because application server will manage messages and processors.

Hi I have a question about shooting in Raw with my Canon EOS 6d.
I'm in the process of learning photography and my goal was to start shooting in raw.
I have Photoshop CS5. When I tried to edit my images in raw I received an error message stating, "The photoshop camera raw plug-in did not recognize the format. If these files are from a camera, you may need to update your camera raw plug in."
In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6. My version of CS5 is 6.0.0.205. Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost. THANKS in advance!
Heather

In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6.
That is correct. Your camera was first supported by Camera Raw 7.3. Camera Raw 7.3 will not work with CS5. You need CS6 or CC.
Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost.
It all depends on your preferred workflow and your budget.
Using the DNG converter is free. There is no monthly fee. You use the converter to convert all Raw files from the EOS 6D to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5. That's an extra step every time - every photo. Some people don't like the extra step. Others don't mind.
Camera raw, DNG | Adobe Photoshop CC
Or you can upgrade to CS6 (non-Cloud) and pay the upgrade fee
Creative Suite 6
Or join the Cloud and pay the monthly fee
Or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US9.99/month) and get PS CC+LR

Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

Remote Access to Windows 2008 R2 Server configured with local IP

Hello,
I have a Windows 2008 R2 Server configured with local IP (e.g. 192.168.1.115).
Please how can I access it remotely outside its local domain through (remote desktop connection).
Thank you.
Tony.

Hi Tony,
Based on your description, you would like to connect to the Windows 2008 R2 server via remote desktop connection.
So you need to enable remote desktop on the Windows 2008 R2 server if it is not already.
1.Install and configure the Remote Desktop Session Host role service in the Windows 2008 R2 server.
2.Add related user to the Remote Desktop Users group in the Windows 2008 R2 server.
3.Configure remote desktop connection in the Client.
Also, due to you would like to access it remotely outside the domain, so you will need a VPN connection or a port forward to connect through.
For more details, please refer to the guide below,

I have a problem with my macbook pro. A band about an inch

I have a problem with my macbook pro. A band of varied colors about an inch & a half wide running the length of my screen vertically suddenly appeared. What is wrong with my Mac?

This is either a graphics processor issue or a display issue. I highly suspect the latter. Either way, it is a hardware issue for which no online troubleshoot exists.
To test, however, the next time it occurs, take a screen shot. If the distortion appears on your screenshot, then the problem is with your graphics processor and you to get your logic board replaced. If the distortion does not appear on the screenshot, then the issue is with your display and you need to get your display replaced.
Best of luck.

I am having problems with my macbook pro and the dock. About every fourth time I start the computer, the dock flashes on and off, then goes completely off and all I get is the spinning ball with brief moments of the cursor. But the computer locks up.

Do you have Parallels installed by any chance? There is a known problem that causes symptoms similar to this. You do not need to actually be running Parallels at the time and nothing in ActivityMonitor would point to Parallels. An update corrects the problem:

One Planning server configured with different BI server

Hello Everyone,
I have a Planning server configured with BI workspace (Hyperion 9.3.1). There are 5 Planning applications already running smoothly.
Can I have another BI server pointing to the same Planning server? Now I want one more Planning application on the same Planning server but different BI server.
If its possible, won't it affect the other applications already present in the Planning server?
Is it possible. Your prompt response would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi All,
Thank you very much for the response....Had not been keeping well, so was unable to follow the forum....
The fact is the current BI server is on 9.3.1 and Planning server is also on 9.3.1, in which I have 5 apps that are running smoothly....
I have one more instance of Hyperion Planning application which is on version 3.5.1 and I need to upgrade it to 9.3.1. It would have been a smooth process if I would have just migrated it in the current set up. But we have a constraint here. The BI server is loaded and hence I can't have one more application configured on it. And also the apps belong to different departments. So they want a distinct BI server for this one single app.
So, I have been asked to use a different BI server for workspace and reporting needs, and the existing Planning server(which is 9.3.1) for the Planning application.
Kindly suggest me what should be my approach.
Thanks

What's wrong with my macbook pro (15" early 2011) when i connect it with TV via hdmi

What's wrong with my macbook pro (15" early 2011) when i connect it with TV via hdmi

Hello Alex,
It sounds like you are getting excessive CPU usage when connecting an external display via HDMI to your computer. I would try the troubleshooting steps outlined in the article named:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1573
When using an external display be sure to check the following:
If you're using an Apple notebook, confirm the AC power cable or adapter is securely connected to the computer and the cable providing power to the display is also secure. It is always good to have your notebook connected to AC power when an external display is in use.
Confirm display adapters are fully seated in their respective connections and that they are supported models and for the computer and display. Refer to these articles to assist you with adapter compatibility and further configuration information:
Monitor and Display Adapter Table
About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
Apple Mini DisplayPort adapters: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Thunderbolt ports and displays: Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
Reset the systemYou can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolutionStart by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Unable to use WAP Transitional with a MacBook Pro

I have a new Airport Extreme which I have configured as a bridge from my DSL modem (which supports NAT, a firewall and all that). I have been able to use it with my MacBook Pro when I have an open, unencrypted network, but when I turn on WAP I can no longer connect to the internet, or even to my cable modem for that matter.
I have been playing with all the various options with Airport Utility (and have done the firmware upgrade on the Airport Extreme). I've tried automatic channel allocation, and setting channel 3, 11, and so on. I've tried having the AE use DHCP to get its own IP address (which works) and assigning an IP on my local network, but neither will let my machine get through to the DHCP server!
My configuration is right out of the manual, but I have tried plugging in the internet connection to the LAN and WAN ports, just to be safe.
Needless to say, the Airport Extreme light is green and according to the status in the Airport Utility, everything is good to go. Except, that it isn't.
I also notice that I cannot connect to the Airport Extreme with an older 802.11b card, so it looks like WEP/WAP is still in the future, unless someone has a few hints on how to use this box.

I would like to delete the question. It is being posed under another account. Unfortunately, question deletion and forum alias change are unimplemented features.
