Remote distribution Servers Domain Change

Hello,
We have around 500 remote distribution point servers. We are going through a domain change for the company. I have read that domain change is not supported officially, so does anyone know the best way we can move all the content library and data from
1.abc.com server to 1.xyz.com server?
Is there is other way we can change the domain of the existing server, and not go through a process of building 500 more servers and move the data?
Thanks in advance

Running Best Practice Analyzer on remote 2008 R2 domain controllers

Hello Powershell World,
I'll start out by first mentioning that I am a powershell rookie so I gladly welcome any input to help me improve or work more efficiently. Anyway, I recently used powershell to run the best practice analyzer for DNS on all of our domain controllers.
The way I went about was pretty tedious and inefficient but still got the job done through a series of one-liners and exported the report to a UNC path as follows:
Enable-PSremoting -Force (I logged into all of the domain controllers individually and ran this before running the one-liners below from my workstation)
New-PSSession -Name <Session Name> -ComputerName <Hostname>
Enter-PSSession -Name <Session Name>
Import-Module bestpractices
Invoke-BPAModel Microsoft/Windows/DNSServer
Get-BPAResult Microsoft/Windows/DNSServer | Select ModelId,Severity,Category,Title,Problem,Impact,Resolution,Compliance,Help | Sort Category | Export-CSV \\server\share\BPA_DNS_SERVERNAME.csv
I'm looking to do this again but for the Directory Services best practice analyzer without having to individually enable remoting on the domain controllers and also provide a lsit of servers for the script to run against.
Thanks in advance for all your help!

What do you mean by "without having to individually enable remoting "?
You cannot remote without enabling remoting. You only need to enable remoting once. It is a configuraiton change. If you have done it once you do not need to do it again.
Here is how to runfrom a list of DCs.
$sb={
Import-Module bestpractices
Invoke-BPAModel Microsoft/Windows/DNSServer

Invoke-BPAModel Microsoft/Windows/DirectoryServices
# etc...
ForEach($dc in $listofDCs){

System Domain Change

We will soon be going through a Domain change from "NTDP" to "GOVT".
There is a fair amount of shall we say...hesitation (trying to be nice)...regarding what types of changes, if any, are required for the Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 system. Is anyone aware of any existing documentation regarding such a change?
For example, the configuration tab on all of the crystal servers tell me that the "CMS belongs to cluster 'WIT157.NTDP.Henrico". However, we don't really "cluster" the CMS. In other words, there is only 1 CMS server, not multiple. Regardless, will that cluster name need to change to GOVT? Or this name just a name.
Any other recommendations on things to look into regarding a Domain change like this?
It's been a while since BO XI was installed. Years. I'm not sure anyone's really paid it a lot of attention in this whole domain change things. Trying to make sure this app doesn't slip through the cracks.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

The domain change will appear as a server name change in releases prior to XI 3.x. You may need to recreate the server/services. There are SAP notes on this in the SMP.
If you have any services running under AD accounts you must insure they can still run in the new domain (or if the old domain is going away) you will need to create their accounts in the new domain. You will need a domain account for various reasons(like sending reports to a network location or to enabling kerberos).
If you use AD or NT authentication enabled then you may need a lot more planning depending on what's happening to the old domain.

CS3 / CS4 connection to remote/testing servers times out.

Hello,
I have 2 questions:
1. Can DreamWeaver be configured to bind once for multiple ldap authentication transactions?
2. Can DreamWeaver be configured to increase it's timeout when connecting to remote/testing servers?
Details below ...
============
Setup
Client: DW CS3/4 clients on WIN XP
Server: Suse Linux 2.6 (SP3)
Protocol: WebDAV via apache 2.2, LDAP authentication
Problem description
Dreamweaver Clients fail to connect to remote/testing servers during peak usage hours.
Analysis
Connecting to the remote/testing servers requires approximately 900 database transactions to test user privileges for content, simplified as the following:
900 x [ bind + lookup + unbind ]
During peak hours, this process can sometimes take upwards of 30 seconds to complete. In these cases, Dreamweaver times out (at approximately 40 seconds) and then user must try the process again.
Possibe Solutions
a) Increase cache size in apache.
This has been done, but we have a large client base, and with 900 look-ups per user, we hit the ceiling of an acceptable cahce size. This solution does not work for us.
b) Change DreamWeaver authentication to only bind once.
Binding 900 times for 900 separate lookups is wasteful. Can DreamWeaver be configured to bind once and have multiple transactions?
[ bind + [ 900 x lookup ] + unbind ]
c) Change DreamWeaver timeout value
Currently DreamWeaver times out on connection attempts at about 30-40 seconds. Can DreamWeaver be configured to timeout at a different value?
============
Thanks!
Graham

Thanks for the super fast response...
Dummy me... It was the firewall on the Oracle host XP box that was the problem
Appreciate the help
Thanks again

SCCM 2012: Reinstall remote distribution point?

Hi,
We have a remote distribution point to which we can't deploy packages anymore. Several attempts to repair it failed.
I'd like to remove the distribution point and reinstall it via SCCM 2012 console.
However, I'd like to know the impact since it contains GB of packages already.
Note: the DP has been removed for clients (temorarely) so no impatc there.
My questions:
-what is best practises: can I just remove and add it in 1 go (or need to wait before re-adding, reboot needed in between)?
-will all data be pulled in again (I activated pull and would reactivate it after reinstall)?
-what's your experience in this procedure? does it work in general or is it preferrable I continue troubleshooting the current situation?
Please advise.

Importance of Certification for Domain Change

Hi,
I have two years experience in development in .Net technologies in a reputed MNC. After that I took a break for personal reasons and now am planning to get back into the industry. During that period of work, i had taken part in a "boot camp" carried out by my company itself in SAP PI/XI 7.1, which perked a lot of interest in me towards SAP. Domain change, unfortunately, was not encouraged in my company, at least at my level.
I am now looking forward to doing Certification in a SAP module. I have a few questions.
1. Even though I have coding experience, will I be counted as a fresher, since it is not in SAP technologies? I think Certification is important towards improving my chances in improving my chances in securing a job as a SAP consultant?
2. I am leaning more towards functional modules than technical. My work exposed me more towards communications end, especially mobile app development, can any one suggest a good module i should look into? I liked SAP PI/XI since including a bit of coding as well, which i though would be good for me since i have experience in that domain, but some consider it as an advanced module, so I'm really not sure.
Thanks and regards,
Arnab

Hi Arnab,
1. As far as SAP is concerned, you would be considered as a fresher. However, your .net experience would be some handy. SAP Certification may help to market your CV being a fresher. At the end of day, whether you have Certification or not, you need to show case and prove your abilities in the interview.
2. Particularly, mobile technologies have good demand. You should follow the mobile technology space on SCN. There are some wonder people in this area, I am sure, they would be able to advise you in more details.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Ravi

Remote Collection Servers "Unavailable"

I have a customer that has multiple remote collection servers that have
been installed on "administration" pc's at remote sites. These pc's are
also used by other admins (compounding the issue). The account that was
used to install ZAM7.5 (inventory only) also has the static drive map to
the filestore. When that user gets logged off...that static map gets
killed and the colsvrcore.exe and tasksvrcore.exe processes die and the
task and collection servers go "unavailable". Is there any way that
anyone knows of to make that persistant connection back to the filestore
some other way besides a drive map?
Thanks in advance for your help!!

On those remote servers, configure the filestore path as a UNC path rather
than a mapped drive letter. That way it will not be disconnected by a
Windows logoff by the interactive user. (look under the Tally Systems
registry key under HKLM)
This is how I have always configured it on remote servers (including XP
workstations) and have not seen any issues. I only use a mapped drive for
user-level controlled access to the file store on PCs that only run the
ZAM Manager.
This works in an AD environment, where I'm guessing the computer account
can have rights to the file store (whether this is default in AD or set up
by the ZAM install routine I don't know - it has always just worked for me
without needing specific configuration, so I have not looked into how/why)
If these PCs are not in AD: The Task and Collection Servers run as Windows
Service, have you tried setting them to start using a local user account
(instead of localsystem)? The account will need matching
username/password on the server hosting the file store, plus R/W rights to
the file store share.

[SOLVED] openssl: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! Hacked?

There's a bit of Windowsisms in here, but one of the main questions is about openssl. As well, this post could help others regardless of the OS involved.
I remote into a Windows 7 workstation at my work using xfreerdp going through Server 2008 R2. RDP is closed at the firewall to all but two IP addresses and neither of those uses port 3389. I'm connecting through NTLM for authentication then the connection is encrypted using TLS. FreeRDP uses openssl to handle SSL/TLS connections.
Last week I remoted in my workstation first thing in the morning as I always do with no problems. I went to work that day and everything was normal. Later that night I went to remote in again and I got the "WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!" message. I followed the advice in the message and contacted the system admin:
me wrote:skottish, were there any major changes in the system that could cause the RSA fingerprint to change?
skottish wrote:I don't think so skottish. There were no changes made to the system beyond a simple update to the server's spam filters.
There was nothing major that changed on the server and I wasn't anywhere in the system that could have forced a change. The only server-side work that I did was with some accounts in Active Directory and updated Exchange's spam filters.
The way that I see it, and I may be missing something, is that there are four possibilities:
1) A MITM attack. If this is the case then it was successful and I haven't tracked it down yet
2) Someone accidentally changed something in the server
3) Someone intentionally changed something in the server
4) The server made it's own changes (which sadly wouldn't be out of character for a MS server)
We do have an outside partner that has server access, but they told me that they weren't in there and I see no evidence to the contrary.
My first question is am I missing any other possibilities?
The second is how does openssl generate the RSA fingerprint of a computer? I've read many, many pages and so far I'm not finding any answers. If I could verify the fingerprint manually, that would help.
The third is that if it is a MITM attack, what are the appropriate steps to identify it? I went through all of the ARP tables on the server and the workstation looking to see if anything is out of line and everything looks fine. I could run a capture off of our firewall and see if there's anything there, but I don't know Wireshark all that well, so I'm not sure what I would be looking for exactly.
Thoughts?

litemotiv wrote:Something like this happened to me before and it was caused by an unforeseen clock/time change, is that somehow possible in your case?
Well, there was a clock change on my end that same day. For some reason openntpd was running about two minutes behind and it had been since I migrated to systemd. I switched to ntpd in order to correct it. I can't imagine why a change on the client side would make a difference though. But, I'm open to the possibility.
--EDIT--
I tried some experiments with openntpd, ntp, and changing clocks and such, but I couldn't trigger the error. I'm still open to the possibility though.
-- RESOLUTION EDIT --
It's not worth bumping this thread over the resolution of this, but someone may be interested in what happened for their own reference later.
I realized that I was looking in the wrong direction and discovered that Windows automatically changed security keys for reasons that I don't understand yet. openssl did it's job perfectly. There was a force that wasn't the system administrator that made changes to the security of the system on a machine that hadn't changed physically. Is it possible that there has been an attack still? Yes, it's just much more unlikely now.

Domain change / Spiceworks pings a nonexistent domain

My company is in the process of switches email providers, moving from johnstown.k12.oh.us to jmk12.org. The email I signed up with is a jmk12.org email, and so Spiceworks keeps attempting to ping jmk12.org — a nonexistent domain. How would I go about changing the ping alert to ping my original domain? I already changed my user settings to use the original email.
Sorry if this is a really stupid question, but I'm new and can't for the life of me figure it out, if it's even possible.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Have you solved your problem yet? I am planning a similar domain change for my company. Any advice you can give me?
Thanks

Command to Open "Computer Name/Domain Changes" window

Running the commands SystemPropertiesComputerName or "sysdm.cpl" in command line will open the System Properties window. I still have to click on the "Change" button to
get to the Computer Name/Domain Changes window. Is there a command to get to the
Computer Name/Domain Changes window directly? I have been searching the internet for several days. I've also tried using SendKeys (batch file, VBScript, and in PowerShell) and to send two TABS
and an ENTER key but I can't get it to work. The command doesn't seem to work on the
System Properties window.
Thank you,

Using ipad with remote app, I cannot change to watching a movie from listening to music through Apple TV without resetting the procedure. It only changes the song

it might be worth checking your TV settings to see if it has an option for different settings based on whether using the tv speakers or headphones.
Normally you should be able to control the sound via the tv.
Have you tried it without the headphones?

Remote Panel Servers Version

I work at the Colorado School of Mines. We purchased 5 user licenses for the Remote Panel Servers. I don't have the CD anymore, but I have the Part Number and the Serial Number. I believed these were purchased when we were using LV 6.1, and now we've upgraded to LV 7.1.1. How do I implement these licenses on the current remote panel?
Thanks!
Tyson

Hello Tyson,
I replied to your email but I will post here so everyone can see. If you go to NI License manager you should be able to activate your remote panel licenses. This needs to be performed on the machine hosting the remote panel. The licenses are not version specific so the fact that you are moving to version 7.1 should not matter.
Go ahead and reply here if you have further questions. I will close the email support ticket.

OS domain change

Hi ,
We are going to change our DOMAIN in sever, Is that we need to take any pre-requisites in SAP level for the Domain change. We are going to stop the application server before changing the domain.
Thanks in advance ,
Regards,
Rakesh

The system will not work/come up after you switched the domain. You will need to adapt the permissions on the filesystem for the new users (in the new domain), registry permission, OPS$-Users (in case of Oracle) and various other things.
I suggest you do a system copy instead (backup the system, delete it, switch domain and reinstall).
