Samba autorisation problem (with xp computer)

Hello,
I just swith my server (mac pro) from a 10.4.10 to a 10.5.1 server.
I'm new to server computing, so i stick to the standart configuration.
I'm expercing big sharing problems. I have the afp crash bug, but i'm also experiencing loads of autorisation problem with the xp clients.
I first experienced problem with windows authentification , windows side(i set up an account for each PC), so i tranform every share point from guest read only to guest read/write (apple+i on the folder, then i change the authorisation). But i experience loads of autorisation.
I finally fix the windows authentification problem, but it get worse:
Every PC trying to make a new folder can't name it. He still have autorisation, he can delete it, an make named folder in it.
Plus a lot of autorisation oddities, the autorisation don't seem to propagate properly.
I tried to swith to the advanced configuration, but i always completly screwed up the server after one or two hours.
Thanks!
Sébastien
(please excuse my english).

You have the exact same problem as described here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1324515&tstart=0
Several of us have noticed it, especially with Windows XP Home. I've filed a bug report with Apple, and would encourage you to do so as well.
Please follow the above link - I have a workaround that might suit your case, as well as instructions for filing the bug report.

I had to uninstall firefox since it was causing so many problems with my computer. I was using the latest version 18. What is the problem?

I have had nothing but problems since I installed the latest version of Firefox version 18. It hangs up my computer no matter what I am doing. Even if I am not using the browser. I uninstalled it three times and the problems just seemed to be getting worse. I finally uninstalled it and did not reinstall it again. I am not going to use it again until the problems are fixed. I also don't know what funmoods is or whatever it is that replaced my google home page. I don't like software deciding what services I should use. I have been a firefox user for over 15 years. I have never had problems like this before. I have switched to Safari. It works without interfering with the other tasks I am doing on my computer. I don't know what version 18 did but the previous version of firefox I was using was perfectly fine. I had no problems whatsoever with it. It appears as if this version was not sufficiently tested. Also my daughter is having the same problems with her computer and they all started with the new version. So it isn't just me. At least give us the option of going back to the previous version and asking us if we want to upgrade when a new one comes out. However, I have never had these problems in the past with any version of firefox I installed. I like the features of firefox but cannot afford to keep rebooting my computer. It seems that firefox gets hung up and then hangs the computer up and I can't do anything else even if I am not using it. It seems to stay on in the background and hang everything up. Please fix this.

It most definitely is the browser that is causing most of the problems. I have used Firefox so long, I can't even remember. Maybe since its beginning. But today is a sad day. I gave up on it. I can't accomplish anything and end up spending hours troubleshooting. I see I am not alone. I am so sick of it "not responding." It's simply not worth it to spend so much time trying to make the thing work, so I can actually do something. Installed, removed, reinstalled numerous times, and I can't fix your software on my Win 7 Pro machine. No problems with IE or Chrome. So. as much as I hate Google Update, Chrome has won the test. Sad, sad day for me to lose Firefox, but it just does not work on the Win 7 machine. I don't have the same issues with the XP machine and have exactly all the same add-ons. Keep it up developers and you will have no Win 7 users at all.

The upgrade to Firefox 4 is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall it and go back to using the previous version?

Firefox 4 is absolutely awful - it is causing massive problems with my computer. How do I uninstall Firefox 4 and go back to the previous version of Firefox?

According to the instructions given on the Norton Community forum under "Other Norton Products/Comcast-Customers - Norton Toolbar Problem in Firefox 10", I have done everything necessary. And I do have a Norton toolbar (Safe Web and Identity Safe) when I open Firefox 10. As was mentioned in the previous posts here, you need to run manual LiveUpdate then reboot until you have version 5.2.0.13. Then reboot and run manual LiveUpdate again and reboot once more. One thing that I noticed is that Norton never told me that it had updated the patch for Firefox 10, so I didn't know. I guess if you have the toolbar when you run Firefox 10, then you have done it all.

Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Choose the appropriate method.

I downloaded OS X Lion on my iMac and I'm having problems with my computer waking up after hibernating. I can get to the login screen but my mouse will be frozen. The only fix's is a hard reboot. Any help would be great!

Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM.
1. SMC
Read this and follow the instructions for your kind of mac:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
2. PRAM
Follow the procedure below:
1. Power down the machine.
2. Locate the following keys on your keyboard in preparation for Step 4:
command–option–P–R
3. Press the ‘power on’ button.
4. Immediately – and before the grey screen appears – hold down ‘command-option-P-R’ all together.
5. Keep them held down until you’ve heard the start-up chime twice. After you release them you should hear it again, and hopefully your Mac will boot up as it should normally.

Has anyone ever had a 'apple support' person randomly call your house saying there's a problem with your computer?

Had someone from 'apple customer support' just call my house saying that there is a problem with my computer because there has been a lot of activity on it and asked me to turn it on so he could help me fix it.
There's nothing wrong with my computer first off..lots not even a Mac.
Didn't give him any info
Anyone else heard about this happening as part of a scam?

I've read of some knowledgable users being able to string these scammers, who are probably mostly low-rent phone dialers with a script to follow, along for ten or fifteen minutes by asking all sorts of naive questions. The transcripts I've seen have been pretty funny. Here's a couple that make good reading:

I am having a DNS problem with my computer. My laptop connects to the internet and my skype works normally but when i try to surf the web it says "DNS Look up failed".

MY PROBLEM
I am having a DNS problem with my laptop. It connects normally to th e wifi internet but when i try to surf the net it says "DNS Look up failed"
This problem only occurs when with the internet at my house. whenever i connect elsewhere my computer works normally. My ipod, iphone, tablet and other friends computers work normally when they are connected to my internet. i use dmy neigbours nework a couple of times from my house and it wrks normally.
Also when i turn my laptop on or off i can browse for a few minutes or seconds before it fails again. My skype works like there is no problem
WHAT I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE IT
I have tried changing the DNS, i used open DNS and google free DNS and it still didnt make a difference.
I have rebooted router many times, nothing
I have changed my home router, nothing
I backed up my computer, resored everything it to factory setting and put everything back on; still nothing
Run a diagnostics at 'Best buy' and they say nothing is wrong; but i know there is something wrong with the DNS
I have tried different "sudo" type of codes on my comupter from stuff i got online and nothign has proved fruitful yet.
i tried using safari, Google chrome and firefox, all not loading
WHAT DO I DO TO FIX THIS?

You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

Problem with one computer: [RegTask] - Server rejected registration request: 3

Hi!
I having some problem with One of our clients, its mine :)
It does not register with the site
ClientIDManagerStartup.log:
MP_RegistrationManager.log
I have no idea why! I don't even use https and PKI. I have done a reinstalled the client by removing "C:\windows\SMSCFG.ini" and the SMS certificates before install but it still won't register. CCMSetup logs return successfull. Boundaries is setup
correctly.
I have also tried to uninstall ccmagent and readded the computer object in SCCM and installed it through client push but still the same problem.
I really don't want to reinstall the whole computer as I have already installed lots of applications i don't know if that will work anyway, could try to run a sysprep maybe.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

10.5.3 problem with changing computer name

Having an issue with computer naming after 10.5.3. Here is the issue:
New Leopard install, fresh
Installed all updates, including the 10.5.3 update
Change the computer name in System Preferences\Sharing
The new name is reflected in Computer Name field
The new name is also reflected as the Local Hostname under Edit
Rebooted the machine
Look at System Preferences\Sharing\Service and none of the services reflect the new computer name\local hostname, the old computer name is listed for each service
Click on the Edit button and deleted the Local Hostname, left it blank and clicked OK
Now the new Local Hostname is listed for each service
Open a Terminal window and the old computer name is listed at the prompt
Reboot the machine
Open a Terminal window and the old computer name is listed at the prompt
Not being a Unix guru, I assume there may be a way to modify the computer name some other way than through the GUI. I sure hope so cause the new patch that was supposed to fix an issue with computer names appears to have created a new bug.

I'm posted an image of Aperture corruption, fresh this morning:
http://lemon.soju.co.uk/2008/06/05/would-you-trust-your-photos-to-an-application -that-does-this/
- New iMac 3.06GHz Dual Core, 4GB Memory, NVidia 512MB (received Sunday 1st June 2008)
- 10.5.2 upgraded to 10.5.3, then Aperture 2.1 trial installed
- First import of 40GB of photos, left to run overnight
- When trying to use this morning, Aperture screens were corrupt and it refused to shut down. I had to power off then boot back into Mac OS X. When I restarted Aperture it worked, but it still seemed to have problems taking over the machine - eg, I wasn't able to send mail from Gmail within VMWare Fusion until I closed down Aperture. I never have problems with VMWare Fusion.

Does anyone have a problem with a computer virus?

This is my third attempt at posting on the forums. I hope it works this time.
Hello to everyone.
I have a Sattelite L455D. I got it last November. It was included in tuition for my online classes at Dawn Career Institute.
Last weekend the computer got a virus. toshiba did recovery and it was fine but yesterday it got another virus and they had to do recovery again.
The virus is the type that try to get yiour passwords and credit card info. The Norton Security also found a tracking cookie that they fot rid off. I don't know if that is the same thing.
The computer is fine now but the security thing said it blocked an attempt to attack my computer.
Does anyone else have a problem with viruses? I would like to know what is causing it.
I am not going on any sites that would cause a problem. I know not to open spam email if I get it.
I don't go on any sites that I have not gone on on a Public computer at the library or someone else's house.
The main sites I use are the school site, my Comcast email, Facebook and Youtube.
I took all of my applications off of Facebook. I play Cityville with some friends and family but alot of people play that though.
I had my resume on Careerbuilder but had to take it down because of getting alot of email about scam jobs. Could it have come from that?
I really would like to know what is causing this. I am very carefull on the computer. I am being extra carefull now.
My Security trail ends in a month and I am afraid the virus will keep getting back on after that. I don't have the money to pay for it myslef right now untill I am done school in August.
This is the first time I have ever had a home computer and I like having one because it is easy to do my schoolwork but I am getting tired of having to do recovery becuse of getting a virus.
Any ideas or sugesstions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Solved!

I will try the Microsoft Security Essentials instead of Norton.
When you uninstall Norton you might want to also use the Norton Removal Tool to uninstall NAV remnants that might be left on the system. It's a free d/l and available from the Symantec Website.
Just so you know MSE real time detection isn't that good. It sometimes allows malware to get onto your system. If MSE does allow malware onto your system it may be able to clean it during a scan. You have to keep your definitions up to date and run full scans manually. It isn't that great but what do you want for nothing.
There are other free antivirus programs available for d/l at CNET: AVG, Avira, Avast, Comodo, etc. They're realtime detection is better but they also use more system resources. AVG has a link scanner feature. Reviews of these programs are available on You Tube and other sites. There are also free scanners you can install to run AV scans on the fly. They can provide a second opinion and can also be useful for cleaning the system of malware: Malwarebytes, SuperAntispyware. They have to be uninstalled when your done or they might confilct with your antivirus programs realtime detection and cause slowdowns, etc. Gmer is free and is used to scan and clean the system of rootkits. There are also some utilities you can use to help see what might unexpectedly be running on the system: Task Manager, System Configuration utility, and the System Information utility are built into your OS. Process Explorer, HighJackThis, ShellExview are also free programs. CCleaner is free and it helps to rid the system of temporary files, cookies, and useless registry entries.
Use Windows Update and the Java Control Panel to make sure your system has the latest patches, and Java version and update Adobe reader. The Java Control panel allows you to delete temporary Java files.
MS has been using Active X and JAVA script for years and the software has always been exploited by malware through email, attachments, web pages and links.

NOW, I've 3 macbook air client with different OS version that do not connect never.
Server log write WRONG PASSWORD but is not TRUE.
I've tried every solution without success.
There is a patch to be applied to client?

Thanks in advance

I'm noticing this in the job info as well:
Session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
and the logs show it trying to login as root when I am supplying my domain credentials.
If I add the printer by IP address it works fine. I tried to delete keychain keys but that didn't work for me.

Problems with my computer

I've been having problems with the audio. I'm using Guitarport, a USB program. When using it as the default audio, there are drops and flaws every now and then in the audio. What is the problem. Do i need more USB power? how do i get it? should i have the computer erased and reinstall the operating system? install the new leopard one? i also should mention that i did not calibrate the battery like the booklet said the first week i've had it. i have since done it, but i don't know if this has anything to do with the problems. i just want this thing to work properly.

You should try to contact the developers of Guitarport.

WRT610N - Samba Storage Problem with Mac OS X Leopard

Hello there,
I've set up a USB drive to be shared via the router (tried both a fat32 and an NTFS drive). When I login from a windows machine I can use the share point without any problems. When I try to use it from a Mac (mounted via smb://192.168.1.1/sharepoint) I can access the folders and download files. I can even create folders. When I try to copy a file onto the share point (normal file name, small file size) I get an error saying "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items." The console log says: "7/3/09 1:01:06 AM kernel smbfs_composeacl: smbfs_setattr 13, ignored "
If I try to copy the file directly via a terminal window I see this:
Macintosh-3:tc user $ cp ~/test.plist ./
cp: ./test.plist: fchmod failed: Permission denied
As I see it there is a problem with leopard trying to set permissions when copying and the router refusing. Any ideas of how to get this to work?

I found this solution in another link on this web site, I would be curious to know if this works with NTFS also.
Routers and Access Points : Wireless Routers : WRT610 USB Harddisk and Mac osx 10.5 Finally, i got it to work.
Here is my step.
1. Format the external HD with mac with the fat format.
2. plug in the HD to the router.
3. In the storage setting>Administration, create a group named "root" with r/w permission and a user "root" with the group "root. Save the setting.
4. Last, create a share on the drive. Assign the group "root" to it.
Boom! Its work now. I can use it with time machine and share my itune library. Hope this can help someone stuck with this issue.
