LAN using RRAS. i have only one server acting has DC, DNS and DHCP, ive been told that i should not have my internet pass through my server instead through my switch , but i am confuse has to how i am going to get my internet to broadcast on my Private LAN
Without going through my server first or using routing and Remote access (NAT).
I would appreciate anyone can help me out with this , thank you

Hi,
I think Bill has given the unambiguous solution.
In all my years as an administrator of an internet data center, networking Architecture is flexible. Network schema is always changed for meeting a variety of needs. There isn’t an only standard for it.
In your case, the solution which is given by Bill works best for you.
In addition, if there is any misunderstanding, please let us know what you would like to achieve.

Newbie setting up qt server help please ??

Hi
I am new to setting up quicktime streaming server but am advanced on mac os x server.
What i have been able to do so far without any probs is, setup my movie files to stream when accessed via a url for eg. rtsp://intranet/music.sdp
this will play my music when i access the link but i would like to know if there is a way that whenever i have someone click on the link can the song or movie start from the beginning ??. qt does not have the buttons available to go to the beginning because it is a live broadcast ?
Any help or guidance would be great

Hi:
If you use an archived file for streaming you'll find that the buttons (as I have) are gray for the forward and back. However, you can use the playback indicator to go forward or backward in the timeline simply by dragging it. It's not as fine a controller as the buttons but it works.
The other issue is that you're attempting to provide an "on demand" stream. If you check out the manual it covers this (however lightly) and what it has to say may help your situation. The manual can be found at http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/QuickTimeStreamingSrvrAdminGuide.pdf
There are a few paragraphs that give me concern for your particular application as it may be what you're trying to do:
{quote}QuickTime Streaming Server (QTSS) or Darwin Streaming Server (DSS) cannot be used to natively serve MP3 ﬁles on demand (that is, as an HTTP download).
Rather QTSS and DSS support of MP3 streams is intended for shoutcast/icecast-compatible live streams (such as those created by a streaming playlist) or live streams of other compatible MP3 live encoder broadcasters.
If you wish to serve individual MP3 ﬁles on demand (not as live streams), simply host the ﬁles on a web server in a web documents folder. {quote}
Hope this helps resolve the problems you're having.

Help setting up Lion Server for remote access

I have been going in cricles for weeks trying to set this up correctly. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I got Lion Server and Server Admin Tools all updated and have been trying to follow Terry Walsh from We Got Served's guide but I missing something.
I purchased a domain from GoDaddy. Let's call it bradnet.com
My domain and dyn domain are not really what I have typed here but close enought that they should work for my example and trouble shooting.
Because my ISP (Comcast) doesn't provide a static IP I registerd for an account with dyn.com. This is where I get really confused. With dyn.com i created a host name: bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com and downloaded there updater software. It found my public IP address and said everything is ok.
I went back to GoDaddy and in my DNS manger page added the host: bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com and entered my public IP.
I then went to the server pane to edit the host name. I followed your instructions to edit the name and selected Host Name for Internet. I left the computer name as mini (what I had previously named it for file sharing before the server upgrade) and entered mini.bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com as the host name. When it takes me back to the server pane, in the bottom window it states:
Your Server's host name is mini.bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com, and its IP address is 192.168.1.10. You can change network settings in the Server pane.
I never get the your network is configured properly message.
I went and set my computer's IP to DHCP with manual address (although all of my machines are set up with DHCP reservations so I guess that is a little redundant) to 192.168.1.10.
I skipped the port forwarding step because I am using the latest AirPort Extreme as my router.
I then opened a browser and tried:
http://bradnet.com
http://mini.bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com
http://mini.bradnet.com
http://bradnet.dyndns-rocks.com
All of these got me the can't find the server response from Safari.
Also, I have not yet set up Directory Services. Terry's guide seems to suggest to do this step first.
I'm sure I have messed up some step somewhere can you see what I have done wrong?
Also, is it a problem to set up open directory services using a .local host and then go back and change it for internet access later or do you need to set that up from the start? My family is getting impatient with me trying to get this to work.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer!
Brad

That manual page is not fully correct. There is written:
Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port value(s)>
Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port value(s)>
Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same Public UDP Ports or your choice>
Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same Public TCP Ports or your choice>
But it should be:
Public UDP Port(s): <enter unique UDP Ports of your choice>
Public TCP Port(s): <enter unique TCP Ports of your choice>
Private IP Address: <enter the reserved IP address of the host device (from step 1)>
Private UDP Port(s): <enter the UDP Ports used by your device>
Private TCP Port(s): <enter the TCP Ports used by your device>
Make sure you use the same ports in the private settings as you have defined in your IP camera. Normally a camera will use port 80 by default, so use 80 here.
The Public ports must all be unique. If you have not defined a port 80 here, you can also use 80. This will fail however when using multiple cameras. I for instance have 5 IP cameras and use the public ports 8451, 8452, 8453 etc.

Please help - Scrollable result set in sql server 2000

Hi can some one please help me. I'm trying to create scrollable result set in sql server 2000, but i just can't get it to work. I've been trying to do this for the past 12 hours. I want to go home, but I can't till I get this going! please help!!! My crap code is as follows:
package transact;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.JInternalFrame;
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class DummyFrame extends Dummy
protected String name, surname;
protected Connection conn;
protected CallableStatement cstatement;
public DummyFrame()
createFrame();
private void createFrame()
try
Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://server:1433;" +
"user=user;password=pwd;DatabaseName=Northwind");
catch (Exception e)
e.getMessage();
populateFields();
menuAction();
show();
private void menuAction()
btncontacts.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
getRecords();
populateFields();
btncontacts.setText("NEXT");
btnkeywords.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
// transaction.getRecords();
nextRecord();
populateFields();
btncontacts.setText("NEXT");
protected void nextRecord()
try
// CallableStatement cstatement = null;
cstatement = conn.prepareCall(
"{call Employee_Selection}", ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
ResultSet rs = cstatement.executeQuery();
while (rs.next())
surname = rs.getString("Lastname");
cstatement.getMoreResults();
catch (Exception e)
e.getMessage();
protected void getRecords()
try
CallableStatement cstatement = null;
cstatement = conn.prepareCall(
"{call Employee_Selection}", ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
ResultSet rs = cstatement.executeQuery();
while (rs.next())
surname = rs.getString("Lastname");
name = rs.getString("Firstname");
rs.first();
// call stored procedure
catch (Exception e)
e.getMessage();
// populate the fields;
private void populateFields()
txtfirstname.setText(name);
txtsurname.setText(surname);
}

ummm ok i think the logic in your code is kinda screwy...
here is what your should be doing.
create the gui.
get the resultset...
have code that looks like this for nextRecord...
protected void displayNextRecord(){
// we do not call next here because we already called it last time
surname = rs.getString("Lastname");
name = rs.getString("Firstname");
populateFields();
if(!rs.next(){
btncontacts.setEnabled(false);// i'm not sure what btncontacts is but we want to disable next becuase there are no more records...
// in your intitalization code you need to do this...
// you old stuff ending with...
ResultSet rs = cstatement.executeQuery();
// the new stuff...
if(rs.first()){
displayNextRecord();
}else{
btncontacts.setEnabled(false);//the result set is empty
}ok the real problem you are having is that you are trying to display one record at a time but you are scrolling
through the entire result set using while(rs.next()... what you
want to do is create the result set once and scroll through
it one item at a time with your gui.
the example method i have given displays the data from the current
row in your gui. then it advances the result set forward one row if possible. this method assumes that the result set will always
be positioned on a valid row thus the need for calling
rs.first() before we originally call displayNextRecord()
well i hope you find this helpful.

Mac Mini Server Database Set-up - Configure & Implement Help

I have a database developer who is fluent in PC languages but not fluent with Macs who need serious help setting up my new database solution using my new Mac Mini Server running Lion 10.7.2. They are lacking the Mac knowledge - but are working on building my database / website solution - to be implementated on the Mac Mini Server.
Quickly...Here's what we are building. I own an Event Photography business specializing in Youth Sports. I bring all the Mac system Computers, (MacBook Pro's, 8 iPad 2's, AirPort Extreme, Mac Mini Server). *Important Note* - we will not ever have internet connection. We will offer photos taken directly at the Event...to View & Order via our wireless iPads (used simply for viewing photos). Customers are "viewing" photos from the iPads - accessing photos from our (off-line) website / database Hosted locally on our Mac Mini Server. All our Mac Computers are "wired" / connected / to the AirPort Extreme and "shared" on a local net (again with No-internet access).
Is there anyone out there who can help them by phone / internet / shared screen etc. to HELP SET UP THE MAC MINI SERVER - to make the database work? They need help with PHP, My SQL, Apachee set-up & configure questions.
This all sounds very complex to a Non-Database guy...but probably a simple check-list walk-thru helpful guide - for someone who's more knowledgeable with working with the Mac Mini Server.
Thanks....Anyone??

well to be honest I wanted a server to run more aspects of what I do privately (rather tahn at work) rather than use hosted accounts from disparate hosted providers on line. In partcular wanted a mail server to handle multiple mail domains, wiki server, web sever as per mail server and I was interested in what they would provide for iphone ipad etc as I have a few that I wanted to link to a server rather than individual macs and pcs
I also thought that Apple might bring their abilities to creating a great UI for essentially linux operating systems to a server os.
from initial views though it might have been easier (cheaper) to go to ubuntu and just their server version of linux. Anyway I will persist - I will read through the stuff you guys have linked me to - colinsolutions appears to have aimed me at some useful stuff. Looks like a bigger "project" than i imagined - but I havent looked at UNIX since 1986 so if I have to get into the command line it wont kill me I am sure.
thanks for the input - if anyone else can suggets good resources that would be appreciated.
ps simon - i found that the name for the server with the .local extension is visibile from the mac via finder and allows me to connect to the shared folder. so my server is sdhome - the shared resource is sdhome.local ... not sure if this helps but...

School server set up need major help pleaseeeeee help by monday

Hey,
Ok school currently has a room of 15 emacs and one G5 today I tried installing os x server I am a novice pretty much and have no server experience,
followed this tutorial
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=977178&tstart=15
yet had problems with setting up the client to connect
got to this part launch Directory Access (Applications/Utilities), click on the lock and authenticate, select LDAPv3, click Configure, deselect ‘Add DCHP-supplied LDAP servers to automatic search policies’, click New and key in either the IP address 172.16.1.254 or better still its FQDN. Server discovery will be fairly quick, you will see iMac01.local in the first field and you will be prompted for a network user name and password, don’t bother with this just click OK and then continue, you will then see the Server Configuration in the Services window, click OK. Click on Authentication and verify that Custom Path is displayed, you should see /LDAPv3/172.16.1.254 or the server FQDN as the second Directory Domain displayed
and it didnt discover the server is it because im using clients of 10.3.9 on a server with 10.4.8 ?
another problem was when setting up the server the user group kept flashing up saying it was netinfo service wasnt running , surely that should be running and how do i get it working?
also setting up the dns server was a issue yet i belive it to be working now,there was somthing also about network tree domain or somthing like that?
please help all i want is to create user accounts for 30 students and let them log on at any machine please help
thanks
Craig Osgood

hey,
right guys it didnt work again today ive spent to constant days trying this and im just pulling my hair out, i really dont have a clue why it isnt working below is all the information I can think of giving
the macs are on a windows network which already has a dchp server and a dns servers which give the ip addresses to the macs which are dynamic. I changed them to static and set up the macserver as its own dns. here are the ethernet config below:
configured ipv4 manually
ip:10.20.128.71
subnet mask 255.255.252.0
router 10.20.131.254
dns servers 62.171.198.104 ( I Have tried putting the macserver ip here yet internet dosent work server ip is is 10.20.128.71
the search domain i wasnt sure on so i put as maidenerlegh.sch.uk the server is macserver.maidenerlegh.sch.uk
I added all the macs to the server via there ethernet id
on the open directory setttings it lookes like this:
lookupserver:running
netinfoserver: running locally only
LPAD: running
password: running
kerebos is stopped
the emac client which is mac01 can connect to the server via going finder go connect to server and then can log on to the user accounts i created on the server yet when i went through how to set it up on the client in directory access it wouldnt discover the network like everyone else says it should it just didnt do anything ?
please help this is a major problem that i thought i could solve i dont know what im doing wrong?
does anyone have any ideas
so i set up the server as a dns all the macs have static ips
I just cant get them to log on the server is 10.4.9 the client is 10.3.9

Need help setting up web server with WRT54GS

Hello,
I am trying to set up a web server with my linksys router. For the network settings, I have used 192.168.001.150 as my primary IP (192.168.1.150, all 3 numerical characters have to be filled in), 255.255.255.000 as my primary netmask and 192.168.001.001 (192.168.1.1) as my gateway. I have gone into my router and then enabled port fowarding for port 80 to 192.168.1.150 but I still cannot access my web server. What could be the problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to set up this server so I can test scripts and things.

Setting up first Leopard Mail Server

Hi All,
I have nearly got there but still confused on the last hurdle!
I have set everything up server side, now when I try to setup client machine with the IMAP mail it is hitting the server and in the mail logs showing a connection is being made BUT giving this error : AOD : authentication error : cannot find user : [email protected] (0)
I have setup my account in OD and enabled mail with all relevant settings. in the info tab I have put a few diff emails I want that user to have (admin@, info@ etc) Is this correct or do I setup the users email accounts elsewhere?
Thanks in advance

OK setup a new user in WGM and account sends mail ;))
BUT when I mail to the new account it now states- Reason: Illegal host/domain name found
Is this my DNS?? I am using the FQDN as my SMTP, is this correct?

Upgrading Mail from 10.3.9 to 10.4.8 Server - Help Needed, Please

Hi
I posted a message a few weeks back with regard to this topic, but have had no replies. I don't seem to be any further on in solving this on my own, so I'm posting again in the hope that someone will be able to assist.
I have an Xserve G4 running 10.3.9 which is a Open Directory Master, PDC and also acts as a Mail Server for our domain. The system software is installed on one 60gb drive in the Xserve and the Mail Store is on a second drive. All the Windows clients can log into the domain and their mail is on IMAP using Outlook as their client.
I am now installing a second server in another office, and obviously this will be a new XServe running 10.4. I would like to make this an Open Directory Replica but now need to upgrade the first server to 10.4 before I can do this.
Each attempt has been at the start of a weekend when staff have gone home, so that I can shutdown Mail and clone the Mail Store before proceeding.
My first attempt was to install a new 10.4 installation onto a drive module and then attempt to upgrade the Mail. I removed the original 10.3.9 startup drive and I cloned the mail store drive before attempting and then followed the instructions given in this article:-
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301656
When running the first part of this script, I get a socket error and don't seem to be able to get beyond this point.
Next, I atttempted a straightforward upgrade. To do this, I again cloned the Mail Store onto another Drive Module, and so that I could roll back in case of problems, I also cloned the startup drive. Once this was done, I then removed the original drives for safety, booted and proceeded to upgrade the Server software from 10.3.9 to 10.4 performing all updates along the way.
When I first booted, I had quite a lot of errors, DNS zones hadn't come over, and I had to kerberize the system, but after doing this and several restarts to cure other problems, all seemed to be OK, but then when I invoked Windows services and tried to log into the domain from a PC client, it failed saying the Domain Controller wasn't available, and the server log shows "Broken Pipe" errors and I cannot seem to resolve these issues. Server admin, also now loses connection with various services at intermittant times and I have to reboot.
So, my conclusion is that the 10.3.9 installation on this server is way too flaky to be upgraded and I must find another way.
Ideally, what I would like to do, is install a brand new 10.4 system onto the server, setting up DNS, Open Directory etc etc ensuring that my clients can log into the domain (copying their profile to the new account if necessary) and then upgrade the Mail once it is all stable. Can anyone help me with this by giving me a step by step guide? I am willing to pay for someone who knows how to do this if they can help me with a guide or perhaps even provide remote assistance.
Thanks in advance

PowerBook G4 17" Mac OS X (10.4.8) G4 Xserve 1GHz, 1.5GB RAM, 10.3.9 Server

They've never heard of a G4? That's shocking, perhaps you shouldn't go there anymore :P.
OS X 10.5 requires at least an 867 MHz G4, unfortunately. You can upgrade to OS X Tiger (10.4) though (Just run software update after installation to get to 10.4.11).
You can find Tiger cheap on eBay or the likes, note you must buy the full retail version which looks like this:

How do I set up my server to print PDF's from Linux LPD?

Our company software runs on a Linux server, in which we have set up multiple LPD queues, one for each location. Currently, we have a windows 2003 server with Anzio Print Wizard capturing the data and printing it to PDF and placing it in specific folders (i.e. "store1","store2","store3",etc.) on our file server (the Mac) according to the printer queue (i.e. "lppdf1","lppdf2",etc.) chosen in the software. I want to get rid of the **** windows server and move everything over to the Mac. This is the last service that we have to move over.
I have read the Print Server Admin guide and found nothing that would guide me in the right direction. That, or I don't know what I am looking for. lol.
Can someone offer some guidance, software solution, direction, etc.. to help me get this over to the Mac server?

Bump.. anyone?

Instant Client with SQL Server - HELP!!

G'day all...
My goal is to connect to a server using Oracle Database version 8.1.7.4, from a server which does not have either Oracle Database or the full Oracle Client, preferrably using SQL Server DTS packages.
With that said, I have installed instant client basic and instant client ODBC suppliment on our first development server using the instructions at the following link without any difficulties, although I do admit that I only have a tnsnames.ora file and not a sqlnet.ora file:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/instantclient/instantclient.html
The trouble is, when I attempt to deploy it on any of our other servers it fails. When I attempt to connect using Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle in a DTS package in SQL Server I get the following error message:
HResult of 0x8004005 (-2147467259) returned Unexpected error occurred. An error result was returned without an error message.
(Note: This is seen on all other servers I've tried this on except for the first one).
I have also tried setting up a System ODBC connection using the Instant Client driver but it returned this error message:
Unable to connect
SQLState=S1000
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified
In desperation I have also tried installing the Oracle RDB Driver and the Oracle 8.1.7.8.1.0 ODBC driver. Both appear to install successfully yet nothing seems to work.
As far as I can tell,l these are the differences between the first server and the other servers:
- First server is MS SQL Server 2000 version: 8.00.760, rest are 8.00.818
- First server is running MS SQL Server Analysis services, rest are not
- First server is MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server, rest are MS Windows 2000 Server
So my first question: Does anyone know if the Instant Client tool works with SQL Server version: 8.00.818?
My second question: Can anyone else suggest something that I haven't tried yet, short of installing the Full Oracle Client on this server? Not that I'm opposed to doing that, it's just that it's a last resort idea as of now...
Please help - need to roll this into production soon...

Kent, I see that many others have reported that error (doing
a google search), but I see no ready answers. I saw something that
reminded me of a connection string value that I've seen answer some
problems. May be worth a shot for you: try adding this string to
the connection string (in "advanced options") for your datasource:
AuthenticationMethod=Type2
If it doesn't solve it, remove it. But keep it handy in case
it ever may help with some other problem.
Here's one other possible answer for you:
