Removing Computers From Shared List?

Here is the problem. In our work area we have three OS X 10.4 clients running as servers for projects, these computers have file sharing turned on. We just replaced many of our older G4 towers running Tiger with new Intel iMacs running Leopard. I only want to allow the remaining G4's to access the shared computers and remove them from showing up on the new iMacs in the Shared list within finder. Should I use ACLs for this, if so does anyone have an example, and if not then what is the solution? I can't believe Apple didn't think how annoying it is to have unwanted computers showing up in your finder, as it is we have dozens already listed.
I do have access to all of the computer's IP addresses and MAC addresses if I can use those in an UNIX solution for ALLOW or DENY.

You could disable Bonjour on the file sharing computers. That will stop them from advertising their file sharing services, and thus they won't show up in the Finder sidebar of the Leopard iMacs.
You will still be able to access the file sharing services by direct connections through the "go" menu on any Mac. You will also need to manually configure any network printing associated with those Macs.
To disable Bonjour, open Terminal and enter (on one line):
$ sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
To re-enable Bonjour:
$ sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist

  • How do I remove computers from the authorized list

    Has anyone been able to remove computers from the authorized list without waiting to get 5 then removing all? I have had 3 computers die and need to have only my two new ones listed

    You can only remove them when you hit 5 authorized. Normally you go to Store>Deauthorize this computer.
    Without computer you go to itunes program>itunes store>Account on right>Deauthorize all. Will have to hit 5 to have the option though.

  • My laptop crashed and it was an authorized computer for my iPhone.  How do I remove this from my list of computers?

    My laptop crashed and it was an authorized computer for my iPhone.  When I downloaded iTunes to my new laptop and authorized it, I see that my old laptop is included in the count of authorized computers.  How do I remove this from my list of computers?

    You do not, nor do you need to until you reach the limit of 5. Then you can deauthorize all.

    De-authorise all, then authorise the one you still have.

  • Impact of selecting "Removing Query from Selection List" in 2 channels.

    HI All ,
    I have customized a query in one channel (My Agreements and Contract Documents query in Master Agreements List channel) and have removed the standard query from the channel by checking the  "Remove Query from Selection List" and introduced my custom query in that query group .
    But  it resulted in break in chain for  "Master Agreements" link in "Contracts To Do List" channel as the link was pointing to standard  "My Agreements and Contract Documents" query and is displaying "The query can not be executed. Contact your system administrator" when ever I click on that.
    Any pointers on how to overcome above scenario wud be gr8!
    Regards,
    Uday

    Hi Uday,
    In order for To Do List channel to work, the query definition should be in the Master Agreement List query group. Do you still want the standard query in the To Do List? If so, you would have to leave it on the Query Group as To Do list is pointing to it. May be change the display name of the query so you can differentiate between the 2 queries. The other option is change the To Do channel to point to the custom query.

  • Automatic Removal  materila from error list

    Hi
    When i do confirmation and if some material which needs to be backflushed  is not available in stock, then that confirmation goes in error.
    Is there is any program which when run in background will remove material from error list(COGI) when that particular material is available in stock.

    Mayuresh,
    when you run "CORUAFWP", foreground, hope you have not activated the "Simulation" check box, if you have, then please remove the Check Box and process.
    In fore ground if you are running, the output report would contain 2 sections,
    First "Overview of Material Documents"
    Second " Overview of Failed Material documents".
    If you dont get any material documents in the first section, it means that the error still exists. In your sandbox or Test system, I would suggest you to first intentionally create a COGI error record by removing the stock, and then check whether COGI record is available or not. If available you can create the stock and then try running "CORUAFWP" program. You would now find a material document in the First section of the output report as explained by me.
    Please dont expect COGI error records like Posting Period Problem or Storage Location not maintained problem to get posted through  "CORUAFWP" , these records have to be processed manually after correcting the dates or inputting the storage location in COGI transaction.
    "CORUAFWP" Program would be helpful in automatically clearing error records of Less stock or Record Lock Problem.
    Hope this helps....

  • How to remove SANE from the list of scanners that are shared in Preferences

    So I installed SANE for an old scanner, which is now replaced by a new Canon that is supported by native OSX and canon drivers. I therefore uninstalled SANE, the prefpane and all occurrences in the /Library and so on, however it is still being listed as an option in the scanners that can be shared i.e. in System Preferences>Sharing>Scanner sharing.
    How do I go about removing this, any hints?
    I also have this suspicion that this is the root of major issues I have accessing the scanner on my system some times, since I get "scanner communication errors" quite frequently, which are in turn resolved my plugging my scanner off and back on again...I did reinstall the software and drivers that came with the scanner to no avail.
    Thanks

    Hey, I used wonder as well where the information was stored regarding the scanner sharing and I think I found a solution. Here's what I found. Download an application that can edit .plist files, such as Martin Bresink's "Prefedit" or "PlistEdit Pro".
    Go to this location: ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost and find the file "com.apple.ImageCaptureExtension2.[xxxxxxxxxxxx].plist" where X's stands for your specific Ethernet/Airport Mac address.
    Edit the file using the application mentioned and remove your scanner/device (SANE) from the Devices list (remove the device number, ie. 0 or 1 or 2, etc). Save the file. If unable to save, change permissions to own the file, save it, and reset the permissions.
    That removed the shared scanner from my list of scanners in the sharing preference.
    Hope it works.

  • How to remove value from pop list in iProcurement Page

    I need to remove a value from POP list. How can I do this? Can I do this using Perosnalization?

    In the category list I need to remove one value. How do i do this.Personalization links not available in this page.
    Please help guys...
    Thanks Advance
    Kumar

    Kumar,
    First you need to find out the data source for the category pop list. Based on that we can suggest how to achieve that requirement as there are many different ways of specifying the data source for a pop list.

  • MSS 60.1.20: My Staff - Reporting: Trying to remove reports from tree list

    I am trying to remove (or I should say HIDE rather than remove) several of the SAP provided reports from the selection tree in the <b>MSS business package 60.1.20</b>. I checked the par file, and it appears that it relies on a function module, <b>HRWPC_RPT_FCODES_READ</b> which in turn calls <b>RH_MWB_FCODES_READ</b>, to build the tree structure based on function codes with scenario MSS0. I checked the IMG, and did not see any way of "hiding" these report/function codes through configuration. I assume I can delete the entries, but I do not want to do that. I would like to hide them. I noticed in the function module, that it refers to a hidden SAP structure <b>HRUSMWBFCH</b> that will exclude codes from the report tree.
    <b>Can anyone tell me how I should be hiding reports from the report tree?</b>

    I think I may have found the answer. In the IMG, you can go to Personnel Management -> Manager's Desktop -> Enhancement of Function Codes -> Define Structure of Function codes -> Change Arrangement of Function Codes.
    From here enter the scenario, higher level function code, and level number in the table. Be sure to check the box "function code hidden" to hide the item from the list.
    I had done this before, but the change did not appear within the portal. I had to actually refresh my browser cache by logging off and back on to the portal in order to see the changes.

  • Verify the proper way to remove computers from WSUS

    I have two servers that I want to remove from WSUS.
    They can't be removed from their current computer group, Domain Controllers.
    I decided that for the domain controllers, I want to go back to updating them manually every month.
    My understanding so far is that I should do the following:
    1) Remove the WSUS GPO presently attached to the Domain Controllers, then run gpupdate /force on the DCs and on the wsus server
    2) Remove the computers from WSUS' Domain Controllers group, then remove the Domain Controllers group from WSUS Computers, probably run gpupdate /force again as above
    After this I should review Windows Update on the DCs and reset it to check for updates and let me download and update.
    Where I'm confused is knowing what registry entries, if any, I should revise to reset the Windows Update settings back to non-WSUS-using settings.
    I think I would delete or change registry settings within these keys?? Or doing the above would have this effect??
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate]
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
    Thank you, Tom

    Hi,
    Note: Please backup your registry key before making any change.
    After new GPO is applied, check the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WUServer
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WUStatusServer
    The two registry key locates your WSUS server.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\UseWUServer
    1 configure automatic update to use a server that is running WSUS.
    0 set to use Microsoft Update.

  • Removing name from contact list

    There is a group to which I send a general e mail a few times a month.  I have these contacts listed under a group name, so when I type in the group name under "To" all the names appear.  There is one person who  no longer wants to  receive the group notices, and I have completely removed her name and contact information from my address book, but when I type the group name in my "To" box her name still appears.  She has  a "hotmail" account, as do several other members of my group.  Is there anything else I can do, short of trying to remember to delete her name every time I send an e mail to this group?  

    When you get hold of one of those first line reps on the phone, it depends very much on just who happened to answer the call.  Some of them are very good.  Others not so much.  The only reason I found out about the memory for the To: line is that another poster had asked about it and I contacted Plaxo about it.  There was an exchange of emails and they explained how the thing works.
    Do you see "Forget" to the right of the first 3 o 4 names when that list comes up?  I had no idea what that was for.  It is the automated sorting software that the mail program uses to determine what addresses you use most often when typing in a given letter/word combination into the To: field.  It then ranks them in that order.  If you want it to change you click on Forget and it should remove it from the spot in the list.  At least that's what was explained to me.  But when I first asked them about it they tried to tell me it was something to do with my browser, which it is not.  So I sent them  a screen shot of it and then they said "oh wait----yeah------that thingy", and then gave me the correct information.
    They don't all know all the features of the mail  program or address book.

  • Unable to remove PAN from Bluetooth List

    I created a PAN (personal area network) using BT to my rMBP.  It works fine.  The problem is that I cannot remove the BT entry on the iPhone.  I can click on the name and then choose "Forget Device", it goes back to the list of devices and it is still there.  I have tried rebooting etc. but it won't go away.  Even if I have choosen "forget device" and then go to the rMBP and choose connect...it will.  On the rMBP the device can easily be deleted and readded at will.
    Is there a bug that is preventing this device from being removed or is there a trick to do it?

    Well, it is possible to re-inherit permissions from parent however, in our case, there is a valid business reason for breaking inheritance and while it is technically possible, that's not an option for us. 
    All we want to do is to remove inactive users from permissions list to reduce the number of unique permissions to avoid performance issues. However, we cannot do that due to the reason discussed above.

    If they removed you from their contacts whether they receive your message or not depends on their privacy settings: They can set up to allow IMs from everyone or from contacts only.
