Question about using net time

I am trying to synchronize the time of my machine with another machine (target) on the local network by using "net time" command and found something strange for me.
If I change the local time on my machine and then use "net time" to read or synchronize from the target, the command is successful.
However, if I changed the time of the target with more than an hour and then use the "net time" on my machine to read or synchronize it with the target, it will fail with "System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied." What is the reason
for that? Is the "net time" restricted by network time?
Roy

It could be a couple of reasons. Firstly it could be a Kerberos issue, authentication is time sensitive to reduce the danger of replay attacks. Can you connect to network shares with the same account? Try using the /setsntp option as this will bypass authentication
and use just the sntp protocol (I could be wrong on this, its been a while since I touched net time!)
Time correction works in two ways in Windows. If the time offset is below a certain offset (which I believe is an hour) the time will be skewed to catch up. i.e. time will run faster or slower to make up the difference without a drastic time change. Alternatively
if the time offset is over that threshold it will be forcibly changed. It could be that your account doesn't have permission to force that change.

Question about using new battery in old Powerbook

I have a pre-intel Powerbook G4, and the battery is pretty much toast (lasts about 15 minutes now). I have ordered a new battery for it, and I have this question about using it:
Am I smarter to keep the new strong battery out of the PB most days (as I usually work with it plugged in at home) and just pop it in when I know I will be out surfing on batteries? Or is it just as good living in my laptop 24/7 and only occasionally being called upon to do its job?
Current bad Battery Information below:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 1144
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 1115
Amperage (mA): 0
Voltage (mV): 12387
Cycle Count: 281
thanks folks, Shereen

Hi, Shereen. Every Powerbook battery wants to be used — drained and then recharged — at least every couple of weeks. If you've always used your Powerbook on AC power nearly all the time, and not followed that pattern of discharging and recharging the battery every week or two, it's possible that your use habits have shortened the lifespan and prematurely diminished the capacity of your old battery. Of course it's also possible that your battery is merely old, as a battery's capacity also diminishes with age regardless of how it's used. You didn't say how old the battery is in years, so this may or may not be an issue. I mention it only because it can be an issue.
For general information on handling a battery for the longest possible lifespan, see this article. My advice on the basis of that article and long experience reading these forums is that it would be OK to do as you propose, but I doubt that you'd derive any significant benefit from it. You would still want to be sure of putting the new battery through a charge/discharge cycle every week or two, even if you didn't have a reason to use the Powerbook away from home or your desk, because sitting unused outside the computer is just as bad for a battery as sitting unused inside it. And you should never remove the battery from your computer when it's completely or almost completely discharged and let it sit that way any longer than a day or two.

I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school. Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom. The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

Not as such.
Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

Hi, I have quick question about use of USEBEAN tag in SP2. When I specify a scope of SESSION for the java bean, it does not keep the values that I set for variable in the bean persistent.Thanks,Sonny

Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.

Question about using TVARV in an ABAP program

Hello gurus, Im sorry about the silly question.
I have a question about using TVARV in an ABAP program.
A program is presenting a problem and I think that in this code:
SELECT SIGN OPTI LOW HIGH
FROM TVARV
INTO TABLE R_1_163431035_VELOCIDADE
WHERE NAME = '1_163431035_VELOCIDADE'
AND    TYPE = 'S'.
IF ZMM001-VELOCIDADE_B   IN R_1_163431035_VELOCIDADE AND
      ZOPERADORAS-OPERADORA = 'ABCD' AND
      ZMM001-MATERIAL       IN R_1_163431035_PRODUTO.
ELSE.
ENDIF.
What happens is that the value "ZMM001-SPEED" B not exist in "R1_163431035_VELOCIDADE" but the program executes commands under the IF and not under the ELSE, as I imagine it would work. Is this correct ?
I am new to ABAP programming, but I have a lot of XP in other programming languages and this makes no sense to me.
Anyone know where I can find some documentation of the use of "TVARV" in ABAP programs?
I search the Internet if other programmers use TVARV this way, but found nothing, which leads me to think that was a quick and dirty solution that used here.
If this is a bad way to program, what would be the best way?
Regards
Ronaldo.

Hi Ronaldo,
But in this case, the range is not empty, there are 17 records, in this way.:
For the column "SING" all values are "E"
It means that the result is false if ZMM001-VELOCIDADE_B has the same value as one of the 17 records (E = exclude).
For instance, if it has value 'C' and one of 17 records matches C, then the result is false.
The "IF" with "IN" using "TVARV" as used in the program of the post above has the same behavior of a selection screen?
Yes, the same behavior as the selection criterion to be exact. You can press the help key in the complex selection dialog for more info.
I know it's a silly and very basic question, but other language that I used, only the SQL has the "IN" operator, but I think they work in different ways, so I would like to understand how it works in ABAP.
Not silly ;-). Yes they work differently.

Question about using Macbook in Vietnam.

I have a question about using Macbook in Vietnam. I bought my mac here in the US, and I'm going to visit Vietnam, but I'm wondering if I can plug in the power directly into the wall or I have to need any convert power modem for my mac. The only thing I know that Vietnam use 220V so, can anyone help me?

You may need a plug adaptor, but you don't need a power converter.

Question about Using PAPI Web Service in PowerBuilder 9

Hi, all.
I Have a simple question about using papiws in power builder 9.
In pb9, I created a new Web Service Proxy Wizard and I input a url for papiws(ex. http://seraphpernote:7001/papiws/PapiWebService) and click next.
But I couldn't get any Service List.
In Eclipse, I used this url for using papiws well.
Does anybody know about this case??
help me plz.

IIRC you must activate PAPI-WS for the engine. In Studio you do it by right-clicking on the project, then "engine preferences". In enterprise/standalone you must activate PAPI-WS in the Admin Center.

Question about using 10g/11g and APEX ...

Hi,
I just recently learned of Oracle's APEX and have a few questions about using it.
Can I use APEX with express, standard, and enterprise editions of 10g and 11g?
Are all of these free to use?

You might want to read about APEX rather than jumping into questions that are reasonably well documented. Info at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html
Your specific questions:
1) Apex is a package that can be installed into any properly licensed database.
2) The price for the production license of the database varies by edition.
The price for Express Edition is $0 for use in production. Part of the cost for that edition is 'no Oracle Support based support, no patches, data volume limitation, etc.'

Question about using Runtime.getRuntime();

hi all
i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime(). if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an external program, is it considered as starting a new thread inside the thread that starts it?
is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what can you recommand to do it? thanks

hi all
i have a question about using Runtime.getRuntime().
if i use this to get a runtime reference to run an
external program, is it considered as starting a new
thread inside the thread that starts it? No. Starting a process, starts a process. Threads have nothing to do with it.
is it safe to do it in the Session EJB? if not, what
can you recommand to do it? thanksSo what? Run another process? If you want to run another process in java then your choices are to use Runtime.exec() or use JNI. And using JNI will probably end up doing exactly the same thing as Runtime.exec().
"Safe" is harder. Typically to correctly use Runtime.exec() you must use threads. And as noted threads ideally should not be used. You can use them but if you do you had better understand why they didn't want you using them in the first place. You had also better be sure that you really want to wait for it to complete.
Other than that Runtime.exec() is safe because it can't crash the VM like other interfaces can (like JNI.)

Questions about Using APIs to import Bills and Routings - AND COSTS

Hi Forum - the following is a back-and-forth with a customer about use of APIs - Inventory developer suggested I post the question here. Note the 2nd question - and thanks for any assistance.
SR# 7332152.994 ALCOA
Instructions given to ct:
Q1 - Can I load the bill header and components at the same time?
You should be able to load the bill header and components at the same time. Customer loads bill and component data inserting enough "other" data for each so that the bill sequence id will be derived. For the component record, the assembly item, org and alternate_bom_designator values will be used by BMCOIN to derive the bill_sequence_id.
Example:
INSERT INTO BOM_BILL_OF_MTLS_INTERFACE
ORGANIZATION_CODE,
ITEM_NUMBER,
ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
PROCESS_FLAG,
TRANSACTION_TYPE
VALUES
'M1',
'&PARENT_ITEM',
NULL,
'1',
'CREATE'
INSERT INTO BOM_INVENTORY_COMPS_INTERFACE b
ORGANIZATION_CODE,
ASSEMBLY_ITEM_NUMBER,
ALTERNATE_BOM_DESIGNATOR,
COMPONENT_ITEM_NUMBER,
OPERATION_SEQ_NUM,
COMPONENT_QUANTITY,
EFFECTIVITY_DATE,
PROCESS_FLAG,
TRANSACTION_TYPE
VALUES
'M1',
'&PARENT_ITEM',
NULL,
'&COMPONENT_ITEM',
1,
1,
trunc(SYSDATE),
1,
'CREATE'
Hi Aruna, some additional information that may be useful:
We can load/create the bill header and components at the same time using the scripts given (as above)
Required Data for Creating a Routing : assembly_item_id,
organization_id, routing_type, transaction_type, process_flag
And following scripts can be used to load routing header and operations equences.
INSERT INTO BOM_OP_ROUTINGS_INTERFACE
(assembly_item_id,
organization_id,
routing_type,
transaction_type,
process_flag)
VALUES (2255800,207,1,'Create',1);
INSERT INTO BOM_OP_SEQUENCES_INTERFACE
(assembly_item_id,
organization_id,
operation_seq_num,
Department_code,
effectivity_date,
transaction_type,
process_flag,
operation_description)
VALUES
(2255800,207,100,'ASSEMBLY',
to_date('24-FEB-2009'),'Create',1,
'Paint Wagon');
Q2: One more question, can an expense item can be added to the bill and can contribute the cost.
As there is a confusion of what I asked, below I am rephrasing my question
By an Expense Inventory Item, I mean an item that is just tracked for quantity only i.e.,Checking the attributes - Inventory Item, Stockable, Transactable under Inventory Tab and not checking the attribute - 'Inventory Asset Value'.
My question here is, For these Expense Inventory Items, What is the difference between having the 'Costing enabled' attribute turned ON as opposed to having it UNCHECKED
*Q3 I have tried to load the items and I could only load 1st level of components but could not load second level of bom at the same time.
While inserting I have inserted plan level too.
Please let me know if I have to do anything different to load second level.*
Thanks
James

Questions about using Bitlocker without TPM

We currently use Bitlocker to encrypt our Windows 7 computers with TPM. Now we are looking at encrypting some Windows 7 computers without a TPM. I see how to change the group policy setting to allow Bitlocker without a TPM. I have looked at a lot of other
threads and I have a few questions about how the Bitlocker without TPM works.
1) I see a USB drive containing a key is required for Bitlocker configurations without a TPM, say the end user loses this USB drive, what are the recovery options for their computer?
This article seems to indicate that without the USB drive connected, you are unable to even access recovery options http://blogs.technet.com/b/hugofe/archive/2010/10/29/bitlocker-without-tpm.aspx
We have recovery backed up to AD when Bitlocker is enabled, but how could we do this recovery on a computer on computer where it's USB is lost? Would we have to remove the HD itself and attach it to another computer to access?
2) After enabling Bitlocker on a computer without a TPM and using the USB Drive for the key, is there a way to also add a PIN or password protection at bootup?

Hi,
Sorry for my dilatory reply,
Configuring a startup key is another method to enable a higher level of security with the TPM. The startup key is a key stored on a USB flash drive, and the USB flash drive must be inserted every time the computer starts. The startup key is used to provide
another factor of authentication in conjunction with TPM authentication. To use a USB flash drive as a startup key, the USB flash drive must be formatted by using the NTFS, FAT, or FAT32 file system.
You must have a startup key to use BitLocker on a non-TPM computer.
From: http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ee449438(v=ws.10).aspx#BKMK_Key
For more Q&A about BitLocker, you can refer to the link above.
hope this is helpful.

Question about using AQ

Hello, am using 11g. I have some questions about AQ. Thanks a lot for any help.
I use a periodic job to make around 100 event-based jobs run each time. There are totally 1000 event-based jobs. I choose 100 of them in a round robin way. If I run the periodic job too frequently, that means I will trigger another 100 jobs to run not until the last 100 jobs complete.
So what will happen? How many messages does the queue can hold? If the queue is full, what will the program which is trying to enqueuing do?
Because I find that I cannot make the CPU utilization reach 100% no matter how I decrease the period of the triggering job. I think there should be something wrong with the event-based jobs.
The following codes are what I wrote for sending messages to trigger those 100 jobs. I find out that the time that these codes take to finish (the loop) varies a lot. If the queue is full, will the program wait here?
select t.start_num INTO l_offset from scheduler_info_tab2 t;
l_jobnum := 0;
IF l_issue_num != 0
THEN
FOR i IN 1..l_issue_num
LOOP
l_jobnum := mod(l_offset + i,1000);
IF l_jobnum = 0
THEN
l_jobnum := 1000;
END IF;
-- l_jobnum := i;
l_queue_msg := t_queue_payload('subscription'||TO_CHAR(l_jobnum));
DBMS_AQ.enqueue(queue_name => 'schdl_queue',
enqueue_options => l_enqueue_options,
message_properties => l_message_properties,
payload => l_queue_msg,
msgid => l_message_handle);
END LOOP;
END IF;
UPDATE scheduler_info_tab2 t SET t.start_num = l_jobnum;
COMMIT;
The queue is created by
DBMS_AQADM.create_queue_table(queue_table => 'schdl_queue_tab',
queue_payload_type => 't_queue_payload',
multiple_consumers => TRUE);
-- Create the event queue.
DBMS_AQADM.create_queue (queue_name => 'schdl_queue',
queue_table => 'schdl_queue_tab');
-- Start the event queue.
DBMS_AQADM.start_queue (queue_name => 'schdl_queue');
null
null

Hi,
AQ actually has its own forum here
Advanced Queueing
and you may get better answers there.
As far as I know a queue can store an unlimited number of messages. The enqueuing program will enqueue the messages and complete but there may be a delay until the messages are processed.
As I mentioned before running lots of jobs results in overhead disk activity which will limit the max cpu utilization and each job also has a CPU overhead which may not be accounted for in Oracle cpu totals.
DBMS_AQ.enqueue should never hang waiting for messages to enqueue (it should just add the message to the queue and continue). I don't know enough about it to know why its time is varying (the AQ forum may give some answers).
Thanks,
Ravi.

Question about using mac mini as a server

I run a small non-profit agency. Our server (A Mac G4 from about 4 years ago) recently died a somewhat painful death, and we need to get a new one. We're trying to be thrifty, but i don't want to get something that won't meet our needs. Our server needs are very basic. No more than 8 people will ever access the server at the same time, and generally it will be 2-4 people at once. We keep Word and Excel docs on it (It used to host our database, but we will have a separate server for our new database). Do you think a Mac Mini with the following specs would meet our needs:
80 GB Hard Drive
1 GB RAM
1.42 GHz PowerPC G4

Frank:
Thanks so much for responding! One question about your post. When you say that the Mac Mini cannot boot in OS 9, does that mean that if I wanted it to hold Filemaker Pro 4 files (which runs on OS 9), that it cannot do this? We would not be running Filemaker on the Mini, just storing the files. We would run Filemaker off of our desktop computers. Sorry, I don't know a ton about computers, so sometimes I need clarification about the terms that people use.-Rob
