Searching recursive folders over network
I have a main folder we will say called scans. These are all pdf's. Each month I make a new folder in that folder to break them up. So it would look like this...
Scans>2009-01>file.pdf
in this scans folder I have a lot of other folders! I need a way to search the main folder but also have search drill thru the recursive folders. Did I mention this is over a network? I set up the scans folder in sharing and set permissions. Great but couldn't access the recursive folders... So I command-I and set recursive in the folder permissions and properties. This works but I can not seem to find a way to search in these folders. I would like to open the shared folder "scans" and all of the month folders are there. But I would then also like to be able to search for files typing the name into the search box in finder. Every time I try it defaults to searching the macs drive and not the share.
I also scan from a differn't Mac then they are stored on. the way I have it shared seems to work fine for saving the scan to the network share from the scanning program! That was easy to do but I do not understand why the search does not work right. Does it take time to index or something bizarre like that?
Having this folder shared does it make security holes? What is the best firewall settings for this setup? Two other iMac will access one iMac basically it is the main machine while the others are terminals. They are linked by a Time Capsule in bridged mode to a 2wire router for outside world access.
I know I dumped a lot in one post but I would appreciate help!

Okay more simple approach! How can you search shared folders over a network?

Question about Sharing folders over network
Alright, i have a mac and a PC, on the same network. I have a folder on my PC thats shared, and i can access it via the network tab in finder. The network icon thingy appears on the desktop, and it acts like a folder on my mac. Is there anyway i can move this "folder" to another location? Also, when i restart my mac, i have to conncet to the same folder again via the network tab. Is there anyway to have the folder stay there, even when restart my mac?
Create an alias or a symbolic link would be the normal manner so you can access a folder/directory from another location.
Can't help on the log-in automatically but perhaps SharePoints or something will let you. Do you use Samba to connect? -
Search multiple folders and muiltiple files and combine to single file
I want to search multiple folders for muliple files and combine to single file name. The files I'm searching have same format, but where named
differently in each of there processes. Now I want to combine based upon -SearchFor .. I'm having a problem with -Filter $SearchFor
Code:
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations,[String[]]$SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\",-SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt",-AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"I think you might want to use -Include instead of -Filter. Your -Include parameter accepts wildcards, i.e. *.docx or *somstr.txt
Your command to actually append the content should be:
Get-Content -Path $File.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
You had $Files.FullName which might behave unexpectedly, if at all.
Your actual command has several issues.
Search-Files -Locations "\\servera\public\t1\usa\saleshist\","\\serverb\public\t2\usa\saleshist\" -SearchFor "dodetail-cm.txt","somstr.txt" -AppendTo "\\virt1\Saleshist_data_load_files\saleshdr.load.csv"
You had commas following the lists of locations and searchfor terms, did that even work? Without seeing your source files or your target file I can only advise you so much, but ideally you would import-csv and export-csv. Depending on the contents,
you may be able to get away with get-content and out-file though.

Share Aperture photos over network
Hallo every body,
iam searching for a solution, how to share photo over network for a long time, in our company we have 40 macs(imac, mac bookpro) and 3 xserve, vtrak and 30pc. and we have round about 30000 pic they are saved in iphoto library on one of the xserve.
My Boss wants from me to find a solution to share these photos over network. the mac users must use iphoto to access these photos.
which program shall i install on the server so that the client users can access the photos from there macs through iphoto.
at the beginning i used the share library option in iphoto, until iphoto 9.1.1. By iphoto 9.1.1 on the client when i click on the shared library my searching field disappears and i cant search in the shared photos.
I thought Aperture is the solution, so i shared the aperture library over the network (with afp protocoll) but in order to access the network aperture library, first i need to install aperture on the client and then i open iphoto and from iphoto option i can choose the option access aperture library.
how can i solve it without to install aperture on the client, is there any iphoto plugin so that i can access aperture library without installing aperture
or is there somebody uses another solution???
please help
best regards
TonyNeither iPhoto nor Aperture is the solution for this.
The idea of using iphoto on the client machines is wrong, it's just not designed for that use. Iphoto is designed for a family with a point and shoot camera, or even a phone. Aperture is a pro level photomanager. Installing Aperture on all the mchines means you will have to purchase the app for all the machine, you need a site licence.
Also, it won't work anyway. You can't share an Aperture Library like an iPhoto one an only one user can access the Library at a time. So, one of the users acesses the Library and all the others are locked out.
Neither are what you need: you need a media server application. A pro level media server. Tell your boss he's fooling himself if he thinks anything else will work reliably.

Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file
I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
Example
root folder to start search
\\servera\sales
\\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
search for and create output file for. The folders to search
will somewhat be static.
Thanks.I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
Laughlin posted are a great resource.

Hi, some of users over the network accidentally deleted a folder from XServe, and he asked if it can be recovered, when someone deletes a file/folder over network OSX reports that "the item will be deleted immediately", is this true? it wont going to be stored in some "Network Trash Folder"? or ".Trashes"? or "Temporary Items"??
And if it really wont be recovered, is there a way to prevent this in the future? like to tell OSX Server to put all the files/folders deleted over network to be stored in a special folder for a certain time to prevent loosing important files accidentally or by other users??
ThanksBertrand> This seems a nice idea, but its not exactly what i need, people still need to delete files from the server, but sometimes they delete important things and im looking for a way that the OSX Server keeps the remotely deleted file for a certain amount of time so it can be restored if needed. many times users accidentally delete files from the server and hit the "OK" button without noticing they just delete an important file from the server and not from there HD, for example, in Apple Share IP on OS9 if you delete a file over the network it would keep it in the user Trash and he empties it, and if he for example restarted his computer, the file on the ASIP would be stored in "Network Trash Folder".. why the mighty OSX Server doest have this great ability?!
Steve> Tapes is great for backup and archiving, but its not what i am really looking for, it has the same problem i have with Time Machine, time machine wont backup a file copied to the server and accidentally deleted within an hour, so Tapes, wont backup a file copied and deleted within a day..
WelshDog2> just a question: if i dont have any partition on my XRAID, how can i make it backup its self on its own HD's?! is this possible?! it wont solve my problem but its good to know if this can be done..
Thank you all guys for your replies, i really appreciate it.. -
Hi, I have a Thinkpad R400 and I also have an ArchLinux i686 home server connected via spdif to my home sound system. When I used debian Lenny, I got really old pulseaudio server, GUI, everything - it worked though. It worked only if I was logged in via X server (graphically) locally or remotely. So I installed Arch (thinking using the same OSes can ease things ... I was so naive) and I cannot get this pulse sound server running. First of all I cannot start pavucontrol over ssh tunnel, it has to be from within logged in session. my /etc/hosts.allow:
ALL:ALL
I would like to have the pulseaudio started as a daemon, not having to start X at all. I am unable to start it though. It just says FAILED and gives no reason at all. please tell me what should I do, what how-to should I abide or... Thank youOkay, server side /etc/pulse/daemon.conf

How check data transmission over network?
Suspect large chunks of data are being sent from iPhone over network late at night (saw it when iPhone was off-net).
How can I check network activity?Internet access basically. Any time you open a browser, Facebook, check your email, send an iMessage, anything that requires the internet uses data over a cell network when Wifi is not available, unless specified otherwise in Settings->Cellular->Use Cellular Data For.
GPS is not used with cellular data. however Apps may need to download Maps to show you the GPS data being received.
Text Messages are not cellular data. That is a separate service from the carrier.
Searching for Wifi does not use cellular data. Wifi searching is local, it only looks for routers near you, using the wifi antenna, nothing to look for over cellular. -
Running a java program over network
Hi,
How a java program on a machine can be run without having JRE on the same machine, rather interpreting bytecode over network having JRE on another machine?Rahul.Kumar wrote:
well, so my java program is running on x. Initialy X had JRE and on invoking java program from command prompt, it had looked for JRE at path, set in environmental settings. Now I moved JRE to another machine Y and connected these two machines (X and Y). You have two machines X and Y.
"Connected" or not has nothing to do with this discussion.
In X path is set to the JRE on Y. The path on X has absolutely nothing to do with anything on Y.
Now execute java program on X, theoretically it should work or what is wrong with this?This makes no sense. Presuming you meant Y in the above then the following must be true.
1. You must have a JRE on Y.
2. You must have a java application on Y (or one accessible via the file system on Y.)
3. You must be on Y and start the JRE passing the java application that is on Y to it.
Notice in the above there is no mention of X. There can be no mention of X. -
Help! Saving an image to stream and recreating it on client over network
Hi,
I have an application that uses JDK 1.1.8. I am trying to capture the UI screens of this application over network to a client (another Java app running on a PC). The client uses JDK 1.3.0. As AWT image is not serializable, I got code that converts UI screens to int[] and persist to client socket as objectoutputstream.writeObject and read the data on client side using ObjectInputStream.readObject() api. Then I am converting the int[] to an Image. Then saving the image as JPEG file using JPEG encoder codec of JDK 1.3.0.
I found the image in black and white even though the UI screens are in color. I have the code below. I am sure JPEG encoder part is not doing that. I am missing something when recreating an image. Could be colormodel or the way I create an image on the client side. I am testing this code on a Win XP box with both server and client running on the same machine. In real scenario, the UI runs on an embedded system with pSOS with pretty limited flash space. I am giving below my code.
I appreciate any help or pointers.
Thanks

}While testing more, I found that the client side is generating color UI screens if I use JDK 1.3 JVM for running the server (i.e the side that generates the img) without changing single line of code. But if I use JDK 1.1.8 JVM for the server, the client side is generating black and white versions (aka gray toned) of UI screens. So I added code to save int array that I got from PixelGrabber to a text file with 8 ints for each line in hex format. Generated these files on server side with JVM 1.1.8 and JVM 1.3. What I found is that the 1.1.8 pixel grabber is setting R,G,B components to same value where as 1.3 version is setting them to different values thus resulting in colored UI screens. I don't know why.

Accessing shared files over network
I am having some problems with a couple of database files that I access with a Java program over network. Different computers running this program all need access to these files, and my question is if anyone know of a good way to make sure that only one user have access to these files at the time. There is no server software running were the files are stored, they are simply reached through file sharing. Currently I am creating a lock file indicating that someone is editing the files, however if I am unlucky 2 users create that lockfile at the same time and then both get access to the file corrupting it. Anyone experienced this and know of a nice solution to avoid it?

Mac can't search a particular wifi network
My Macbook Pro is unable to search my office wifi network. The problem I am facing is happening with particularly this network.
It can connect to all other networks in range, like I have connected my iPhone via personal hotspot. On the other hand, all other devices can search my office network too. I am facing this issue since last 2 days. Does it have to do anything with the upgradation to OS X Yosemite ?
I have tried everything with my modem. I am tried of searching for this issue online, but it seems people haven't really faced this issue as yet.
PS : This is affecting my work really bad, as I am restricted to my iPhone's tethered 3G network, that's really slow.
Please, help me out of it.

[email protected]This discussion area is for apple routers actually.. and although it gives lots of problems it doesn't tend to not appear at all..
You are posting in the wrong area.. since this is a laptop error or more likely a purely Yosemite issue..
So lets see what we can do.. Not all wireless is created equal.
Beetel (ADSL2 + Router)
Please set the wireless in this router to a different name, short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.... set to a fixed wireless channel eg.. 8 or 9 for 2.4ghz and turn off all wireless security. Especially you must not hide the wireless.. this is just a test to run for a couple of minutes.. then you can change the name and security back again.. it is to prove compatibility. This reduces the wireless to its lowest common denominator and if it cannot connect on these settings it never will.
Reboot the Mac and scan for wireless again.. no luck I would say the Mac wireless is simply unable to connect to the particular wireless chip type in the Beetel.. The solution is to plug an Apple router into the beetel and use it in bridge mode.. and create a wireless network.. then the Mac will have less (cannot say No issues). -
Eversince I updated my iphone 4 to IOS 5.0.1, sometimes I get a 'No Service' or 'Searching' signal where my network signal should be upon which I have switch the phone off then on then 'Reset all Settings' to get the phone normal again.Is there a solution to this?
I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again. -

I like to keep my Trash nice and tidy and only delete incrementally when I begin to run out of space. This is what I do: every week or so I open up the Trash on my "Trash" drive (the one with the most spare space that stores all my Trash), create a dated folder (YYMMDD), and copy all the "unfoldered" trash from all drives to that new folder. Then I empty the Trash on the other drives.
To remove the oldest folder when I need to (to free up space), I select the one at the top of the Trash and use my favourite Terminal command: +sudo rm -R+. Love that command.
My question is: sometimes I want to search this "foldered" trash. I came across the trick of making the trash visible by +Go To Folder > ~/.Trash+ but that doesn't seem to find items in folders in the Trash on external drives. I tried it once on a file I knew was there, and nothing came up.
Is it possible to search a "foldered" trash that is on an external drive without scripts or other complications?iKey is a front end program that simulates typing and mouse movements. I use iKey to remap the Function keys.
"iKey is an automation utility, a program that creates shortcuts to accomplish repetitive tasks. In essence, an iKey shortcut is a little program in its own right, but you don't need to know the first thing about programming to create an iKey shortcut. All you have to do is put together three necessary parts of a shortcut: One or more commands that give the shortcut its functionality, a context in which it runs, and a launcher that defines how the shortcut is activated."

iKey has a little more function then the previous free version called youpi key. For many years, I used youpi key before switching to iKey. It works fairly well for me in MAC OS 10.4 although not officially supported. The youpi key download is hard to find & no longer here.

Examples:
I have the common programs that I use assigned to function keys. I have F4 assigned to Firefox. When I want to start FireFox, I press F4. When I want to switch to firefox, I press F4! Starting & switching to an application in Mac OS are the same thing in Mac OS.
Here is an example of to assign volumn control to a function key.

Here is my script for listing my application folder. I have it assigned to function-key 6.

tell application "Finder"
open folder "Applications" of startup disk
select Finder window 1
set bounds of Finder window 1 to {-3, 44, 691, 545}
--set position of Finder window 1 to {33, 44}
set position of Finder window 1 to {60, 45}
activate
end tell
The second portion of this script was generated in the script editor record mode. After I recorded the script and did some editing, I copy the script to ikey/youpi key.

Install Solaris10 over network.
I have one sinfire v245 box which is in remote location (DR site). I want to install Solari10-u5 on it.
I can't travel to remote site due to some restriction.
Presently Solaris10-U1 is installed in the box.
I have telnet/SSH access to Solaris-OS, and i have SSH access to it's "Advanced Lights Out Manager".
There is no one in remote location who can insert Solaris10-u5 media.
In this situation, is there anyway that i can freshly install Solaris10-u5 on it ?Ok. I learned the way how to install Solaris over network.

I am trying to install the client, i am getting this error on the client continuously . Any idea how to solve this ?
