Server based control of wireless?

Hi Everyone,
I'm a little new to macs, and am responsible for managing some on a network. We have several iMac computers which, up until now, were connected via ethernet. I'd like to move them to a wireless setting. This is the problem I have (with all of them).
The airport card shows up as "inactive." When I click on the gear and select "activate service" the airport comes on. I then connect to our network, it grabs an IP, and almost immediatly the airport switches back to "inactive." This happens on all the imacs, so I was wondering if there might be some sort of server side (we have a mac server) setting which is remotely disabling them.
Any help you could offer is greatly appreciated.

Workgroup Manager (WGM) has the ability to limit the network interface that bound OD clients can use to connect to network services. The setting explanation is given on page 216 of the User Management v10.5 administration guide.

  • Referencing a "locally installed" Java applet from a server-based HTML page

    How does one reference a "locally installed" Java applet from a server-based HTML page (i.e. via the applet, object, or embed tags)? I have seen references in documentation that this is possible, but I have not seen any examples. I have tried a few things, but nothing seems to be working.
    Some background...
    I'm working on a web site that aggregates Internet video. For many users, I would like the site to work "without" requiring Java to be installed (or any prompts, etc.). This version of the site allows users to stream videos directly over the Internet and does not require any sort of access to the local system.
    However, in addition, I have a download manager that can be installed on the local system. Currently, it's a Windows-based "service" that is always running in the background, downloading files, etc. (with plans to later support other OSes).
    My dilemma is trying to communicate between my web site running in the local browser (executing JavaScript code) and the download manager. I call this component the "gateway". I need the gateway to be able to do the following:
    1) Pass user credentials from the web browser UI to the download manager (so it can communicate with my servers).
    2) Check the status of downloaded videos
    3) Launch a local media player (such as Windows Media, QuickTime, etc.) (or perhaps tell the download manager to launch the media player).
    Under Windows XP, I have an ActiveX control that can do these things. It communicates with the download manager via reading/writing to a shared XML configuration file.
    Unfortunately, under Vista and IE7 Protected Mode, ActiveX controls have become very restricted and my gateway no longer works. As such, I am looking at using Java for the gateway (also giving me the additional benefits of supporting additional browsers and OSes).
    From my understanding, I believe I can created a "face-less" Java applet, whose methods can be called from JavaScript. Ideally, I'm thinking I could install the applet onto the local system at the same time the download manager is installed. This would give the applet the security permissions it needs to communicate with the download manager.
    Thanks for any help and suggestions!

    Hi,
    Put the .jar file and the .class file in the path mentioned in one of the aliases in the plsql.conf file like /images or create
    a seperate directory and create an alias like /applets "path" in the plsql.conf file.
    <html>
    <body>
    <applet code=com.chartapplet.chart.BarChartApplet
    codebase=/applets/
    archive=/applets/chart.jar width=300 height=200>
    <param name=background value="white">
    </body>
    </html>
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • NAS server based on Arch [Solved]

  • Touch devices - list-based control scroll and drag distinction

    Hi,
    I am wondering how Flex is able to distinct between a touch scroll of a list-based control and a touch drag event of an item in the list on a touch enabled device.
    Unfortunately I am not able to test this issue here right now, since I have no touch device running AIR 2 or Flash 10.1.
    In my application, I have a number of DataGrids. On touch devices, I want the user to be able to scroll the list without using the thin scroll bars, but also want to enable him/her to drag list items.
    Anybody out there with an idea?
    Thank you

    Welcome to the discussions, JCEIV!
    Just a few pointers that may help:
    AirPort Utility 5.5.2 is the latest version of that application. Is the AirPort Extreme running 7.5.2 firmware?
    Did you connect an ethernet cable from your computer to one of the LAN <-> ports to make the configuration changes on the AirPort Extreme? +I just don't trust wireless for any type of important configuration changes or settings+, but you may disagree.
    After you update the AirPort Extreme, you can disconnect the ethernet cable and move back to wireless.
    If the AirPort Extreme does not restart correctly when you update it, you may need to perform a Factory Default Reset to clear out any old and possibly corrupt settings. It's a hassle to have to reconfigure everything and reenter all the data, but I know of no other shortcuts.

  • Creating server based folder on mac/me IMAP- Problem!!!

    I'm having a problem creating an IMAP server based folder to sync with my iphone.
    I can create one for my personal domain email account, which, when sync via itunes appears in my mail app on the iphone.
    But when I try to create one for my .mac/.me account, it does not appear in my Mail app on my computer, let alone on my iphone.
    I click the '+' at the bottom of the left hand pane, click 'new mailbox' and then using location 'mac', with the nice picture of the cloud, enter the name I'd like it to have.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, or do I have a bug?

  • Save As.. and Server Based Homes

    Hi there
    I'm setting up a new Client/Server system with OSX 10.6.2 on both sides.
    There is one "problem" in using server based homes:
    When you have a document opend (QXP7, QXP8, IDD CS3, IDD CS4....) from the server, and you choose "Save as" from the menu, you allways end up in the "Documents" folder of you home directory. This also happens when you want to place pictures in the mentioned applications.
    Local accounts don't show this issue.
    Is there any cure for this problem?
    best regards
    OH

    I'm confused by your post. What do you mean by "logged on locally"? When you're using RDC from a Mac to a Windows workstation or server you're logging on remotely.
    If you're attempting to log in to the server via RDC (remotely) and on the server itself (locally) then you will be forced to select one logon and the other will be locked or disconnected. This is expected.
    Can you clarify how and where you're logging in?

  • Pdf's freeze using Reader in server based Mac 10.6 or 10.5

    I support several hundred iMac's for a school district. We have a site license for Adobe CS4 (and CS3). The user's accounts are server based. The programs are installed on the local computer. If I create a local account and log into that local account all functions normally. However, if I or anyone else for that matter logs in using the server based account, pdf's freeze. Also, when logged into the server, if you try to install a new version of Reader it errors looking for a disk. What the program is really looking for is the users' local account which of course doesn't exist locally because I am logged into the server. I've had Apple out to look at the server and local iMacs. They say all is functioning normally and this is a known Adobe problem. Apparently the program can't find the users account on the server. I have used a workaround with Preview and Word but that's not a solution. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the thought, Barbara B. Not sure if this counts, but emailed the file to myself [different email account, same computer] but it would not play as an email attachment. Any suggestions for a web upload where I can test your suggestion? Seems like there should be a different save option other than IMAGES ONLY but that is the only option I'm given.

  • Server-based output

    I've been working on a help system but have not published it
    yet. In my RH experience I haven't dealt with system issues. Now my
    current project needs to be published, and I'm afraid my version of
    RH is insufficient. It's Robohelp HTML X5, and it apparently does
    not create server-based help. Is that correct? (This will be much
    easier if I'm wrong.) The software being documented is .NET-based,
    so it appears I need Robohelp Pro for .NET. I spoke with Adobe and
    there is NO migration path from Robohelp HTML X5 to Robohelp Pro
    for .NET. Meaning I have to spend the full $2000 for it. This in
    turn creates a problem for me persuading the development group
    about this.
    So, is there any way for Robohelp HTML X5 to create
    server-based help? Can anyone suggest a migration path from what I
    have that does not cost $2000?

    Chris
    It is entirely wrong to think that RH HTML X5 does not
    produce server based help. It is the webhelp output and on my site
    you will see many links to RH demos which are running on the same
    server as my site. Professionally most of the help I produce is
    webhelp running on servers.
    .NET is a different issue but I believe webhelp will run
    there but there may be extra features the .NET version gives.
    However, if you don't need them...
    I am sure some with .NET knowledge will come in on that.

  • Server based Office 2013 - New template, template not showing header content in one work station only

    This is for Server based Office 2013 - using Word 
    All computer work stations are running Windows 7 professional
    I have Word 97 - 2003 templates saved on the shared drive on the server. I have these templates "pinned" to the opening page on all server user accounts, so when anyone starts word on the server anyone can see the company templates.
    On most of the work stations, when I create a new document from one of my templates - Word successfully shows all the Header and Footer details. 
    But on one work station there is no content in the Header or Footer, no matter which server account is signed into the server on that workstation.
    Any suggestion 

    ... ... no matter which server account is signed into the server on that workstation.
    Any suggestion 
    Do you mean it happens regardless of which acount signed in? If so, maybe update the workstation?

  • Is Lc Designer ES4 a server-based tool only?
