Sharing /usr/local and NIS server and client
I have two sun v880 with solaris 9 one is nis server and other nis client . The nis master sharing /usr/local with nis client. I need that one sun will be backup from other, if one stop working other continuos. What is que best practice for to do this, stop de nis service and copy /usr/local of one to other? Change nis client to nis slave? I don't have experience with solaris.
Do you only have 2 machines total?
You discuss two separate services: NIS and filesharing.
For NIS, all that is required is that you set up a slave. The slave continues to serve data (but not update it) while the master is down.
Sharing /usr/local is different. If it's just these 2 machines, instead of NFS I might set up rsync to copy the data over periodically.

Change Locale in Hyperion Server, not client
Hi all,
On fresh installation, Interactive Reporting Web Client uses default values - for instance, 'USA' for locale and date format as 'mm/dd/yy'
These settings can be changed on the client post installation.
What i want to be able to do is - Change the default values on the server files itself, so that the change need not be made for every client.
On the Server, there is a file 'intelligence.ini' at - $MIDDLEWARE_HOME/EPMSystem/products/biplus/common/config/
The last few lines are as follows:
*[Regional Settings]^M*
Language=English^M
FormatLocale=USA^M
*^M*
DefTimeStFmt=mm/dd/yy HH:MM AM^M
DefTimeFmt=HH:MM AM^M
DefDateFmt=mm/dd/yy^M
DefRealFmt=#,##0.#####^M
DefIntFmt=###0^M
DefNullStr=^M
DefMonth=mmm^M
I have set the FormatLocale as UK and date format as dd/mm/yy. I then re-installed IR Web Client on a Client system and found that it still uses the default USA locale. How is this happening?
IS there any other way these default settings can be changed on the server itself?
Thanks in advance.Please have a look at Workspace Interactive Reporting Preferences Defaulting to USA format (Doc ID 726788.1) in MOS.
You will have to modify the below files:
- server.xml
- intelligence.ini
- intelligence_en_US.ini

Does Time Machine backup system files (/usr/local/*)?
Does Time Machine backup system files (/usr/local/*)?
If so how do you locate them in the Time Machine interface?
If I go into Time Machine mode and type say "/usr/local" in the Time Machine search bar I get nothing although I can open a terminal application and cd to /usr/local and see bin, lib, include, etc.
Of course I can never see /usr/local in Finder either ... only at the command line.
Thanks.John, another tech pro ("baltwo") suggests:
Run this in the Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1
OPTION-click and hold on Finder's Dock icon->Relaunch which reveals all hidden files. Then, look for that file and delete it. To hide all of those, use the same command, substituiting zero for the one, and relaunch the Finder. -
/usr/local/ permissions-Unix
I do not have a /usr/local/bin folder. When I try to mkdir /usr/local/bin/ I get
mkdir: /usr/local/bin: Permission denied.
In fact, permission is denied for copying writing into /usr/ at all.
My permissions are:
drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 136 Oct 25 2005 usr/local
and
drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 374 Oct 24 2005 usr
I tried changing permissions, but I get
chmod: /usr/: Operation not permitted
I always just use my administrator account, so it's not that I need to log in as administrator.
Any ideas? It would be nice to be able to install some libraries in a /usr/ subdirectory...
Thanks!
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)Performing the instructions as Jeffrey describes will produce another folder which you don't have write access to. If you're running an installer for those libraries, it should prompt you to enter your administrator password during the installation. If you want to install them by drag-copying them, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, enter /usr/local/ as the folder's path, drop the files into the folder, click the Authenticate button, and type in your password; if you still want to create the folder, follow Jeffrey's instructions and then drag-copy the libraries.

OK to create /usr/local/bin?
Hi,
I tried today to install the command line utility for Growl, growlnotify. The installer script failed because it tried to install into /usr/local/bin which isn't there currently.
Now, is it OK to just go ahead and run "mkdir /usr/local/bin" to create the directory? I am not very experienced with Unix so I usually don't touch the unix directories so that I don't mess up anything...
Thanks!
IngoIf you are the only or primary user of your computer, and you want to mess around, /usr/local is as good a place as any, since most software installs in it by default. Another option is to do stuff in your home directory.
If you have a dumb installer or Makefile that tries to install and possibly over-write files in say /usr/bin, you would be tipped off by install permission failure, whereas if you issued "sudo make install" you are at the mercy of whomever wrote the Makefile.
I actually build stuff in my home directory and install it into root-owned /usr/local, and the first time I issue "make -i install" I do it without write permissions and I can watch where it tries to put stuff. That is excessively paranoid. But its when you stop being paranoid.
Anyway, it doesn't much matter. For security reasons on a multiuser system, it is best to have multi-user accessed executables in root-owned directories. -
Hetrogenous join: ms access local and oracle on server
Hello
I want to know if it is possible to join tables from a local client ms access db and an oracle db on a server. I have used the link feature in ms access and the hsodbc feature of oracle, but the ms access db is local and the oracle is not. Is there anyway that I can control the local access db from a link from the oracle db on the remote server?
ThanxThere is no such facility as of now to acces Oracle table from DB2 database or anything.
You can spool the data into flat file for MS access table and import that data into
Oracle table. -
As we all know,
the Windows Server Essentials Experience role is available in Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter. We can add the Windows Server
Essentials Experience role in Server Manager or via Windows PowerShell.
In this article, we introduce the steps to install and configure Windows
Server Essentials Experience role on Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard via PowerShell locally and remotely. For better analyze, we divide this article into two parts.
Before installing the Windows Server Essentials Experience Role, please use
Get-WindowsFeature
PowerShell cmdlet to ensure the Windows Server Essentials Experience (ServerEssentialsRole) is available. (Figure 1)
Figure 1.
Part 1: Install Windows Server Essentials Experience role locally
Add Windows Server Essentials Experience role
Run Windows PowerShell as administrator, then type
Add-WindowsFeature ServerEssentialsRole cmdlet to install Windows Server Essentials Experience role. (Figure 2)
Figure 2.
Note: It is necessary to configure Windows Server Essentials Experience (Post-deployment Configuration). Otherwise, you will encounter following issue when opening Dashboard.
(Figure 3)
Figure 3.
2. Configure Windows Server Essentials Experience role
(1) In an existing domain environment
Firstly, please join the Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard computer to the existing domain through the path:
Control Panel\System\Change Settings\”Change…”\Member of. (Figure 4)
Figure 4.
After that, please install Windows Server Essentials Experience role as original description. After installation completed, please use the following command to configure Windows
Server Essentials:
Start-WssConfigurationService –Credential <Your Credential>
Note: The type of
Your Credential should be as: Domain-Name\Domain-User-Account.
You must be a member of the Enterprise Admin group and Domain Admin group in Active Directory when using the command above to configure Windows Server Essentials. (Figure 5)
Figure 5.
Next, you can type the password for the domain account. (Figure 6)
Figure 6.
After setting the credential, please type “Y” to continue to configure Windows Server Essentials. (Figure 7)
Figure 7.
By the way, you can use
Get-WssConfigurationStatus
PowerShell cmdlet to
get the status of the configuration of Windows Server Essentials. Specify the
ShowProgress parameter to view a progress indicator. (Figure 8)
Figure 8.
(2) In a non-domain environment
Open PowerShell (Run as Administrator) on the Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and type following PowerShell cmdlets: (Figure 9)
Start-WssConfigurationService -CompanyName "xxx" -DNSName "xxx" -NetBiosName "xxx" -ComputerName "xxx” –NewAdminCredential $cred
Figure 9.
After you type the commands above and click Enter, you can create a new administrator credential. (Figure 10)
After creating the new administrator credential, please type “Y” to continue to configure Windows Server Essentials. (Figure 11)
After a reboot, all the configurations will be completed and you can open the Windows Server Essentials Dashboard without any errors. (Figure 12)
Figure 12.
Please click to vote if the post helps you. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.Part 2: Install and configure Windows Server Essentials Experience role remotely
In an existing domain environment
In an existing domain environment, please use following command to provide credential and then add Server Essentials Role: (Figure 13)
Add-WindowsFeature -Name ServerEssentialsRole
-ComputerName xxx -Credential DomainName\DomainAccount
Figure 13.
After you enter the credential, it will start install Windows Server Essentials role on your computer. (Figure 14)
Figure 14.
After the installation completes, it will return the result as below:
Figure 15.
Next, please use the
Enter-PSSession
cmdlet and provide the correct credential to start an interactive session with a remote computer. You can use the commands below:
Enter-PSSession –ComputerName
xxx –Credential DomainName\DomainAccount (Figure 16)
Figure 16.
Then, please configure Server Essentials Role via
Add-WssConfigurationService cmdlet and it also needs to provide correct credential. (Figure 17)
Figure 17.
After your credential is accepted, it will update and prepare your server. (Figure 18)
Figure 18.
After that, please type “Y” to continue to configure Windows Server Essentials. (Figure 19)
Figure 19.
2. In a non-domain environment
In my test environment, I set up two computers running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and use Server1 as a target computer. The IP addresses for the two computers are as
below:
Sevrer1: 192.168.1.54
Server2: 192.168.1.53
Run
Enable-PSRemoting –Force on Server1. (Figure 20)
Figure 20.
Since there is no existing domain, it is necessary to add the target computer (Server1) to a TrustedHosts list (maintained by WinRM) on Server 2. We can use following command
to
add the TrustedHosts entry:
Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts IP-Address
(Figure 21)
Figure 21.
Next, we can use
Enter-PSSession
cmdlet and provide the correct credential to start an interactive session with the remote computer. (Figure 22)
Figure 22.
After that, you can install Windows Server Essentials Experience Role remotely via Add-WindowsFeature ServerEssentialsRole cmdlet. (Figure 23)
Figure 23.
From figure 24, we can see that the installation is completed.
Figure 24.
Then you can use
Start-WssConfigurationService cmdlet to configure Essentials Role and follow the steps in the first part (configure Windows Server Essentials Experience in a non-domain environment) as the steps would be the same.
The figure below shows the status of Windows Server Essentials.
Figure
25.
Finally, we have successfully configured Windows Server Essentials on Server1. (Figure 26)

Connection fails if server and clients are in different subnets
Hello,
our Volume License Manager (v2.1) is running in another subnets than the clients (All machines are running under Windows XP-SP2 without Domains or ADS, just workgroups).
The server is in subnet A (192.168.42.0/24), all clients are located in another subnet B (192.168.50.0/24).
Routing is properly configured and is working fine, traffic to the specific hosts is not blocked by a firewall. We can ping every machine,
open telnet connections to the NILM, everything works.
But if the clients try to connect to the remote NILM (both local client NI License Manager and VLM port settings are correct) their connection attempt always
times out with error code "NILM10"
(I already read the mentioned KBs, no solution has helped so far). This is true if clients and server are separated.
For testing purposes, i plugged one client into the server's subnet (server's IP: 192.168.50.250, client 192.168.50.10)
and it worked perfectly. Is there a reason why server and client have to be on the same subnet or is it some other kind of problem that I am not aware of?
Thank you.
ThorstenHello Thorsten,
Did you add the server's domain to the client computer's DNS settings. To do this, complete the following steps on the client computer:
1. Open Local Area Network Settings from the Control Panel (Start»Control Panel»Network Connections»Local Area Connection)
2. Click the Properties button
3. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) from the list of network components
4. Click the Properties button
5. Click the Advanced button
6. Change to the DNS tab
7. Ensure Append these DNS suffixes is selected
8. Click the Add button
9. Enter the domain suffix of the license server and click Add
10. Close any open dialog boxes, choosing OK and Close as necessary.

Time sync between server and client
Hi guys,
I have written a chess server and client. My next step is to implement a clock which will be used in timed games, however, I am not sure of the best solution. I can't think of a reliable method to keep the client's time in sync with the servers because the event latency varies between individual events and clients.
My first idea was to send a 'tick' event every second but I dont think this the best solution. I have seen many applet based clients which have timers, such as Yahoo chess.
I know this question is a little vague, I can give more detail if needed.
Thanks,
AlexTo prevent client-side cheating, the server should keep the
"official" clock. Every so often (perhaps when a move gets made?),
notify both clients of the official time. Clients count seconds from
that official time.
This is a suboptimal solution because it leaves clients vulnerable
to network lag. I can't think of any other solution that doesn't give
clients some responsibility for tracking time, though, and that's a
big security hole.
If you're willing to open that hole, have each client report back to
the server the elapsed local time from when they recieved the
last move to when they made their move. Then update the other
client's clock accordingly. -
Internal server name .local and having a certificate mismatch
I have one RD server with all the roles on it and I'm receiving a SSL certificate error because my internal server name is a .local and the SSL has been assigned to my apps.domainname.com address.
I've ran the powershell cmdlet Set-RDPublishedName to reflect the apps.domainname.com, but this doesn't seem to make a difference.Hi Bill,
1. We know Set-RDPublishedName worked because it shows apps.domainname.com for Remote computer in the prompt.
2. In Server Manager -- RDS -- Overview -- Tasks -- Deployment Properties -- Certificates tab, please make sure you have set your certificate for all purposes (RDCB Single Sign On, RDCB Publishing, RDWeb, RDG). We know it is not set (at least) for
publishing because you are seeing the Unknown publisher warning.
3. On the client PC, please make sure you have mstsc.exe version 6.2.9200 or later installed. For Windows 7 you need to download and install the DTLS and RDP 8.0 updates. Windows 8 and later already includes the new client.
4. On your server, please enter the following in an administrator command prompt:
wmic /namespace:\\root\CIMV2\TerminalServices PATH Win32_TSGeneralSetting Set SSLCertificateSHA1Hash="e2f034c171b92afc96b23b7f4da15728c1e461a9"
Substitute your certificate's thumbprint for the Hash listed above. The quickest way to get your cert's thumbprint is to open the certificate, on the Details tab highlight the thumbprint with your mouse, press Ctrl-C to copy it, then paste it
into the command prompt using the system menu Edit--Paste command. After pasting simply delete out the spaces in the thumbprint using backspace and the left arrow key.
5. For best results with RD Web Access, please use IE and Allow and Run the Activex control when prompted. Selecting the Private option on the RD Web logon page is preferred.
Once you finished with the above items please test again and reply back here with your results, whether positive or negative.
Thanks.

I want to be able to setup a user mobile account, with the home directory stored locally and not synced to the server. What is the best way to do this? I am running Server 10.6 with 10.6 clients. Open Directory will be used to authenticate and manage preferences. Also, this one account will be used simultaneosly in a computer lab setting, so files will be stored locally in the client, hence the need to NOT sync to the server. Any Ideas?

WSUS server and client configuration issues
I just inherited WSUS from my predecessor (it was turned off because of a full disk) so I’m still learning how to use it. Turning it back on I changed where updates should come from, they were stored locally and now I’m pulling them down off of the Microsoft
Update location. What I’m seeing is that I have a bunch of computers that WSUS “sees” but are showing “Failed or Needed” status. Unless I visit each machine and manually do the updates this status does not change. Additionally I have some client computers
(Windows 7) that are not showing up as managed by WSUS. If I reading this right I’m running version Update Services 6.2.9200.16384 on Management Console 3.0 Version 6.2 (build 9200) on Windows Server 2012.
How can I force WSUS to automatically update the “Failed and Needed” devices?
How can I get those clients that are not being managed by WSUS to be managed?
Some of the things that I have done so far on the server and clients are:
Create a GPO (see attached for WSUS)
wuauclt
/detectnow
wuauclt /reportnow
wuauclt.exe /detectnow
gpupdate /force after
modifying the GPO
I even ran the SolarWinds WSUS diagnostic (as a non-administrator) and got this as the output:
# Solarwinds® Diagnostic Tool for the WSUS Agent # 1/23/2015
Machine state
User rights: User does not have administrative rights (Administrator rights are not available)
Update service status: Running
Background Intelligent Transfer service status:

Windows Update Agent configuration settings
Automatic Update: Enabled

Windows Update Server: Not found (There is no such key)
Windows Update Status Server: Not found (There is no such key)
WSUS URLs are identical: Values are empty
WSUS Server Connectivity -- Connectivity check is impossible
So, my questions are:
What tool do I use to configure the client machine?
How do I get WSUS to update my clients?
Thanks
SamSteven,
I'm pretty sure that this is not the right forum to discuss this in but just so we can close this case.
On my computer I ran the command gpupdate /force I
then rebooted my computer to make sure that the group policy would be updated. The first screen shot is from my domain controller and the second is from my computer. As you can see the Domain Controller has the correct settings but the local machine doesn't.
Other parts of the DC GPO settings have worked so I'm somewhat comfortable that it is being propagated properly. -
LDAP (Directory service) server and client compatiblw with windows 7
Hello Experts,
Earlier we were using Netscape Server 4.0 and Console in Windows XP for LDAP Integration testing with BRM.
Now that Windows XP is soon going to be decommissioned and the software is incompatible with windows 7,I am looking for Directory service (both server and client) alternatives compatible with Windows 7.
Has anyone tried setting up a Directory service(or LDAP) in windows 7 Operating system ??
Any help is appreciated. Thank youHello Mr Thio,
Basic cause for this type of error message is Generally permission issue.If you are using a domain account make sure it is added as local administrator in local machine.
RK on setup.exe and select run as administrator
Makes sure you copy installables on local drive and run setup from machine if your are running from CD directly avoid it.
