Script to find connected or disconnected state of PS/2 Keyboard & Desktop Monitor

I tried to create WMI Script using Win32_Keyboard & Win32_DesktopMonitor class to find whether the device is connected or not. It works when the device is connected. However it does not detect when the device is disconnected. Device Manager continue
to show the device until the desktop is rebooted. I tried with several other Win32 class but it did not work. Is there a way to find the disconnected state of this device.

Most often when a user asks about a "PS/2" keyboard they mean and keyboard connected in any way. I just bought a new wireless keyboard. The box is marked PS/2 keyboard. (compatible). This is trying to indicate the PS/2 keyboard
layout and not the old PS/2 connector.
We can trap on all PNP events in WMI. This is one way assuming a PNP keyboard and monitor.\
To find if this is PNP use tis query
gwmi Win32_PnPEntity -filter 'Name like "%keyboard%"'
gwmi Win32_PnPEntity -filter 'Name like "%Monitor%"'
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Error "The remote connection was disconnected because there are no Remote Desktop License Servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator"

Hi,
I have been using Windows server 2012 at my company and generally take a remote access to this server. However, since last few days, I have been receiving the Error "The remote connection was disconnected because there are no Remote Desktop License
Servers available to provide a license. Please contact the server administrator".
My entire work has come to a halt because of this error as all my applications are running this server and their remote access is needed for my regular requirements.
I had tried one of the solutions proposed at one of these forums especially using gpedit.msc but to no avail.
Regards,
Aditya

Hi Aditya,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Agree with the words of armin, please verify that you have properly installed correctly. Verify RDS Licensing service running on License Server. Verify that the client, the RDS server, and the license server can communicate by ensuring that Domain Name System
(DNS) is configured correctly on each computer. You can run the ping command from each computer to each computer using the IP address, FQDN, and the NetBIOS name. If any of the ping commands fail, verify the DNS configuration on the network.
In addition, you can also try “GracePeriod” registry setting on this path (HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM) from
this article.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Mirror and Witness Connection in a Disconnected state immediately after adding Witness Server to Mirror session.

After adding the Witness Server to the Mirror session, the Witness Connection state between the Mirror and Witness Connection is Disconnected and the state between Principal and Witness Connection is Connected.
The procedures defined in Books Online was used to setup Database Mirroring...when the Witness server was added to the Mirror session, only the alter database T-SQL statement was executed on the Principal server.
ALTER DATABASE <db_name> SET WITNESS = 'TCP://<servername>:<port>'
After executing the above statement, a few seconds later the state between Principal and Witness Connection changed to Connected and the state between Mirror and Witness Connection remains Disconnected.
The Mirror session is not using Certificates, every server is on the same domain, using the same domain login account, and all servers have SP2 installed running Enterprise Edition.
Any idea's why the state between Mirror and Witness Connection remains Disconnected?
Thanks,

I have the same problem. All 3 servers are on a workgroup and I'm using certificates. All three servers are connected via switch. This is a test environment, with the principal server being a 64 bit OS with Windows Server 2003 R2 with SQL Server standard x64, the witness server is a Windows server 2003 SP2 x32 with SQL Server Express, and the mirror is Windows XP x32 with Sql Server Standard. Using hard coded static IP addresses (FQDN makes no difference, and they get resolved to IP addresses anyway!). The mirror server log shows
'The server instance Witness rejected configure request, read its error log file for more information
but of course there are no errors logged on the witness server - not by SQL, nor in the event log. When the witness is set on the princial server, the Database mirroring monitor shows almost immediately that the witness and prinicapl servers are connected, but it takes quite a few seconds before the witness/mirror state is shown as disconnected. Until then the entry is blank. The monitor also shows High Saftey with automatic failover, which isn;t true - since the mirror and witness are not connected, no failover occurs when the principal is taken offline.
Since I'm running terminal services on the XP machine to interact with the witness and principal server, I find it hard to image that there are network issues.
If the witness can connect with the principal and the principal can conect with the mirror, under what circumstances will the witness NOT connect with the mirror? When I check the witness server for entries in the database_mirroring_witness view the following is shown:
RTJobs TCP://primary-sql:5022 TCP://192.168.100.14:5022 2 FULL 1 1 2263BD97-1004-4D73-9966-7AFB89E5626E A6EE18DF-19C4-48EC-8C06-77074EF5A275 0 1
Interestingly the IP address of the prinical server is replaced by the Sql Server instance name (primary-sql) but this doesn't happen for the witness.

My internet continually disconnects. When I added my airport express, I had to call Verizon (my provider) and have them "bridge" my modem. Ever since, my connection constantly disconnects and puts up the message "Could not find a PPPoE server".

Any ideas? I probably have something wrong in my computer settings.

You should restore your modem to router condition and set the Airport Express to 'Bridge Mode'. A full explanation and the method of doing this is here:

Connect vs Disconnect with UserEvent.SYNCHRONIZATION_CHANGE

I'm using the UserEvent.SYNCHRONIZATION_CHANGE event to determine when the current user connects or disconnects from a room. Since SYNCHRONIZATION_CHANGE fires for both loging in and logging out, what is the best way to distinguish between the connecting and disconnecting?http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/acrobatcom/com/adobe/rtc/events/UserEvent.html#SYNCHRONIZAT ION_CHANGE

Thanks for your response. I have two quesitons.
1) I wasn't able to find the example you mentioned (sharedModel/SharedManager). I found sampleApps/SharedModel/*, but didn't see SharedManager classes in there. Where can I find these classes?
2) I misunderstood you when you said "You can look for isSynchronized property in your ConnectSession/CollectionNode". I started watching cSession.isSynchronized, which works for the first time you enter a room, but if you leave a room and enter another, cSession.isSynchronized does not do what I'm expecting (true = logging in, false = logging out). Which isSynchronized should I be monitoring? Here's an example of what I'm currently doing and some associated output that is not doing what I expect. I know that looking at cSession.isSynchronized, but could you show me how to modify my example to work correctly?

Aprreciate help on this.

To resolve this, you need to reconfigure the "Oracle Application Testing Suite Helper Service" (OATSHelperSvr) to start as a user who has privledges to run open script tests rather than the default SYSTEM user.
Reconfiguring the OATSHelperSvr Service:
1. Open the services panel (Start > Run > services.msc)
2. Find the Oracle Application Testing Suite Helper Service
3. Right Click > Properties then select the Log On Tab
4. Specify an interactive user that has rights to run OpenScript (test by logging in as that user and running tests):
5. Click OK
6. Restart the service after dialogs are closed by Right Click > Restart
7. You should now repeat this process for the "Oracle Application Testing Suite Agent Service" (eLoadAgentMon) Service (Two services in
total)
You should now retry running the test in Oracle Test Manager

Connecting a disconnected archive to a mailbox other than primary

We had an issue with the server that was hosting our archive databases. While we were getting it corrected, all of the archive mailboxes were disconnected from the primary mailboxes and new archives were created. The problem with the server was corrected,
and I have been in the process of reconnecting the disconnected archives back to the primary mailbox. The problem we are running in to is that everyone is now missing 2 - 4 weeks of archived e-mail that is in the new archives that was created. We have
to be able to access this e-mail for legal purposes. I have upped the retention period for holding on to those disconnected archives, so we don't lose them after 30 days. I'm wondering if there is a way to connect these disconnected archives to a different
mailbox, so that this e-mail can be retained. I tried connecting the disabled archive to a mailbox other than the primary user using the following shell command
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Connect-Mailbox -Identity "815ad6d6-2ee4-4c77-9c14-d0bfb696da37" -Archive -User "Archive Retent
ion" -Database "Archive1"
but found out that the guid of both archive mailboxes are the same. Anybody have any ideas how I can connect a disconnected archive to a user other than the primary user? I hope this hasn't been to confusing. I'll try to sum up here:
1. Archives got disconnected
2. New archives got created
3. Now in the process of reconnecting archives from number 1 to primary mailbox
4. There are now e-mails in the new archives from number 2 that need to be accessed
5. Trying to figure out how to connect the disconnected archives from number 2 to a different mailbox in order to access and retain the e-mails.
Thanks.
James
P.S.
I did find this article --
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232039.aspx -- that suggests that connecting an archived mailbox
to a mailbox other than the primary is not possible. So, maybe I'm looking for suggestions of how I can access the e-mail from these disconnected archives.

Agree with Andy. Seems like there is no easy way to recover the items from the additional archive mailbox.
If you decide to export the archive item into pst file, you can use cmdlet New-MailboxExportRequest
-IsArchive
New-MailboxExportRequest
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607299.aspx
Or due to the important and urgent, I would suggest you make a phone to PSS directly.

Script to find report columns with XXS vulnerabilities

Hi,
Report columns with display as "Standard Report Column" are vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting attacks. I have written a simple script to find these report columns and described an easy way to change them all at once. Check: http://wiki.shellprompt.net/bin/view/Apex/XssExamples
Regards Pete

Hi Pete,
good that you bring up that security issue!
I was talking to Joel during ODTUG about the "Standard Report Column" default the wizard uses and he said that this might be changed in the next version to use the more secure "Display as Text (escape special characters, does not save state)"

Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.

IPhone 4s connects and disconnects from Windows 8

Apologies if this has been asked before as i'm sure it has but I can't find a solution.
I have a new HP Compaq laptop using USB 3.0, when I connect my IPhone 4s to my laptop it connects and disconnects every seconds, I've looked in the device manager and can't find anything to do with Apple in there.
Has anyone found a solution to this?

Hello Aqib2024,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 4s. You have taken some really good steps to isolate the issue. I recommend following the steps in the article below to further isolate and troubleshoot this issue:

Script to find the Concurrent Request ID from its associated SID

Hi,
In one of my production system, my server load is going very high. From the top used process ID of server, I found the SID and found out that the program running is "ora_rw20_run@acgerp (which is a concurrent program)
How do I find out the Request ID using the SID/PID? Can someone please provide me the script to find the Concurrent Request ID from its associated SID?
Thanks!

There has been no new changes in the report server or in the database. Suddenly of late, we have been observing this program running and it never ends, consuming major part of the cpu load. Not sure what this program is -> ora_rw20_run. There is no mention about it in metalink or in google.
I followed MOS Doc 1058210.6 and tried to debug more. But the formatted output doesnt give any info either.

IPod keeps connecting then disconnecting immediately... help?

So, I bought my iPod nano in April and it worked perfectly until about 1 month ago when my computer suddenly stopped recognizing it, and now whenever I try to connect it it disconnects after 1 second, then connects again, then disconnects etc etc....
I know this is a known issue cause as I've been trying to solve this for one month I've done some searching and seen plenty of other people having the same problem, but no one seems to have a resolution that works.
Basically my exact same problem is described in these 2 threads:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2240335&tstart=0
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1847791&start=0&tstart=2
I've done every thing suggested but no luck... I went back to the store as well and they didn't find anything wrong with it, so obviously it's my computer (I tried it at my mom's work as well and it worked there) but I don't know what's causing the problem. I don't wanna get my iPod replaced or buy a new one because it might just as well happen to that one too and then I'm stuck in the same boat again. Getting a new computer isn't really an option either. :/
So, any kind of help that hasn't been suggested already would be highly appreciated...
thanks in advance

Similar problem here too plus when I do manage to get them to connect they will not charge.
Both my classic iPods work fine, in all my computers, and show that they are charging, but my family have 3 nanos, a 4th and two 5ths. Although they all connect to my PC and my laptop fine, none of these will connect correctly to my daughters PC no matter what USB port I put them in.
I have checked in device manager that the ports are powered (500ma) and nothing else is there to infringe on this supply. Still these items connect and disconnect constantly. Ironically every now and then, they will connect and allow me to look at the files etc in iTunes. I have at one point had two nanos and my classic connected to her computer and they all worked fine for about an hour, I thought that I had finally got rid of the problem but one by one the nanos started to play up again so this exacerbates the problem somewhat.
I also get various warnings when the Nanos are trying to connect like, software driver failure to install, it will work faster in a high speed USB port, nano needs formatted to work in windows plus a host of others. When I plug them back into my PC they connect fine, so that all adds to the confusion. If this was one nano I would suspect that it was faulty but it is three different ones.
I have done the 5 Rs, I have even gone as far as upgrading from XP to Windows 7, I have plugged the units into every USB port, I even bought a new PCI/USB card and tried that and still this problem persists.
I would like to hear from someone with any suggestions as to what is causing this and how to fix it.

Shortcut to connect and disconnect 'Airplay Display' on MacMini?

Is there a shortcut to connect and disconnect 'Airplay Display' on my MacMini so I dont have to use the drop menu?
Running Mavericks 10.9.2

Hi, I have a similar problem and reported it to the Apple hotline. They currently have no solution. The same in several online discussions. Currently you only can disconnect or switch off you modem to cut the connection to the internet. When I do that I must use the AirPort utility to reload the AirPort Extreme base station after the connection has been re-established.
I'm not sure if the people in the States can imagine that there are other regions in the worlds were individuals live which don't have a flatrate ...
