Remote Administration using server is not working 10.8.2/2.1.1

I have set up two different servers using 10.8 with all updates applied before promoting to OD. Both these servers have static IPS and are running DNS. Everything is working. However, I cannot manage either of them using Server 2.1.1. No firewall; VNC works. This is really annoying. I have read other posts that this error is solved with 10.7.3. Not true here. Can anyone help please . . . thanks for your time, it's much appreciated.

I called Apple support and they were very helpful. Changing from a manual proxy to an auto proxy (.pac) prompted the certificate authentication dialogue to appear. All working now.

  • Windows Server 2012 - Printing using UNC path not working

    Hi,
    I have a problem printing using the printer's UNC path ("\\Server_Name\Printer_Hostname") to work with a web
    app hosted on IIS 8. With a windows forms application the UNC path is working fine and the app prints.
    With
    the web app I receive an error "The data area passed to a system call is tool small". 
    Also,
    in the event viewer under Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> PrintService -> Operational, I receive the error "The print spooler failed to reopen an existing printer connection because it could not read the configuration information
    from the registry key S-1-5-82-1980832875-2702362896-1795126167-3622310632-1152289074\Printers\Connections. The print spooler could not open the registry key. This can occur if the registry key is corrupt or missing, or if the registry recently became unavailable."

    I have contacted IIS forum support.

    Their final response:
    Printing from ASP.NET using System.Drawing.Printing itself is a horrible approach, as this namespace was designed for Windows Forms only. The designers did not take everything about ASP.NET in mind, so any issue can happen. That can answer why the HP model
    works while the Samsung fails, as the HP one just "happens
    to work",
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.printing.printdocument.aspx
    Similarly, System.Printing was designed just for WPF.
    About which printing API to use in ASP.NET/IIS, there is no clear answer so far. Thus, your only resource is Microsoft support, who can perform further analysis (with their dedicate utilities and of course Windows source code) and might come across a solution
    to help you out. This is not a trivial scenario.

  • Server does not work in yosemite

    Help!  My OS X Server does not work after upgrade to Yosemite!  Disaster!!!

    After the disappointment that I cant manage the servers running the previous versions of OSX server from my upgraded desktop. I upgraded my office server to 10.10 Yosemite with OSX Server 4.0 I am still not able to connect.
    I can remote desktop into the server without a problem (both are on the same LAN with the server on .local). But the Server app is not able to connect.
    Actions taken so far:
    Update software on desktop to 10.10 and Server 4.0
    Update software on server to 10.10 and Server 4.0
    Verified connection by pinging IP and .local
    Verified to connect to the drive and screen sharing via local network
    Rebooted router + switch
    Rebooted desktop + server
    If you manage OSX servers for clients, keep a system on 10.9 around so you can still keep your business running.
    Upgrading the server needs to be done on site with display, keyboard and mouse connected.
    Apple please fix a.s.a.p.

    Well the error message is in Swedish but says: The installation program database is damaged. Please contact the Adobe support (which is a hard thing to do!!). I use Windows 7 Home Premium with service pack 1.

    Would you rather upgrade to windows 8, BlackBerry or Android phones? Do you honestly think those don't have problems?
    You waited a lot and chose to buy an early production model. Mistakes happen all the time a factory retools and workers relearn new skills necessary to keep US happy.
    Exercise your rights.... Send it back for a new one. 
    In any case, I feel your frustration. Btw, I love Apple but use a Blackberry

  • WSDL causing CF server to not work

    Hello all,
         I have a strange situation that I am not sure how to fix.  I have a website that uses web services on a different server than what the site is hosted on.  Recently the CF server was not working properly.  We rebooted it and it worked for about a minute then crapped out again.  We found that the webservices on the other server had been stopped for some reason.  Once those were turned back on, the CF server was able to run everything just fine and would not freeze up at all.  The problem is that the web services can sometimes shut off like that, and it causes our main website to stop functioning until the web service server is rebooted and/or the webservices get turned back on.  I am curious if anyone has experienced something similar and knows of a solution.  I am not sure why the web services not running could cause the CF server to completely crap out.  If anyone has any advice as to how to protect the main site, that uses ther CF server, from breaking if the web services get shut off or that other server goes down.  I understand that parts of the site that use the web services would not work, but I can't have the rest of the website break bc the web services are not avilable for a small portion of the site.  We use a URL to connect to the web service, like below.  Any help would br appreciated.  Thanks.

    Is your mother on an Auto Pay Plan or does she use a charge card to pay for the $100.00 ? I know this will not make any sense but in plan booklet it states  and I will print exactly what its says "  You will forfeit the money in your account if you have activated service without a Refill Card and did not make an outbound call within 60 days."  I always use a prepaid card and have not made a call within the 60 days and have never been cancelled.  I'm not sure what that means but you might want to check with customer service and see if they can give you any details.  Is the money from before August still showing up in the account?

  • Does any one know why the iCloud email server does not work?

    I keep trying to send mail but it keeps telling me the server is not working and to create another. Help!?!

    Either it ended up in a spam filter or it isn't being sent to that address. If you can't find it, use the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article to contact the iTunes Store staff.

  • Mail, iCal Server and iChat server will not work over VPN

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station at the office running the network. Behind it sits a Mac Mini Snow Leopard server running 10.6.3. The ports necessary for Mail, iCal Server and iChat work fine through that external connection. I can also connect with VPN from my 10.6.3 clients.
    HOWEVER, when I connect with the VPN clients, I am suddenly unable to access the Mail, iCal Server, Wiki server and iChat server. All connections time out. I can ping the server and I can do other things that do NOT work on the public Airport like ssh or VNC. ssh and VNC are closed at the airport extreme.
    So it's pretty odd. When I'm connected via the VPN, all ports that are forwarded to the Snow Leopard server time out over the VPN.
    I've tried various and sundry configurations with the VPN client. This includes trying to send all traffic over the VPN, moving it up in the service order, etc. etc. Nothing fixes it. DNS resolution is working fine, however when I do a wireshark capture of ppp0 traffic, I notice that SSL and TLSv1 handshakes appear to occur on the public IP address instead of the private network IP address... and they're all resets.
    Has anyone gotten this to work successfully? Like I said, all ports that are NOT forwarded through the Airport work fine over the VPN, but will not work when connected to the VPN. It's really bizarre.

    New data: any ports that are normally forwarded on the Airport Extreme to the Mac Mini server will not work when connected to the VPN.
    For instance, if I have imaps/993 forwarded from the Airport Extreme to the Mac Mini, it works fine over the Internet. If I connect to the VPN, I can connect to all OTHER services on the Mac Mini, but Mail, for instance, will not work.

  • I updated iTunes to 10.5 and now in my Netgear Stora iTunes server is not working anymore

    I updated iTunes to 10.5 and now in my Netgear Stora iTunes server is not working anymore.
    Configuration: OSX Lion with Server, iTunes 10.5, latest firmware for the Stora.
    Can this be confirmed to be a bug introduced with 10.5 ?
    I also saw some people mentioning the same problem on Synology NAS.
    Seems like the 10.5 uodate broke something.

    Definitely seems to be a cross-platform bug in iTunes 10.5 concerning all NAS disks. Shared libraries on network drives worked fine under 10.4.1, but now there is just an endless loading cycle with no error message or time-out. There is a bit more about it in this thread.
