Strange behavior about Solaris 10 11/06 x86 dhcp client

Hi forumners,
I can use the installed Solaris 10 x86 to access internet on my laptop at home, however, when I use my laptop running Solaris 10 at my working office I can not get onto internet.
When I use "ifconfig -a" to check the interfaces, it shows me the ip address which is usually assigned by my at-home router. It means that the network interface is not updated by the on-going DHCP processing. Do you have any idea or suggest about what happening. Thanks.

Strange behavior about ResourceBundle!

I use ResourceBundle to realize internationalization, normally it behaves right. but the following code displays nothing. I don't know why.
public class MyJob extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
        public static ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("resources.myjob");
        static String title = getResourceString("title");
        static String description = getResourceString("description");
        static MyJob myjob;
        public MyJob(String Mode,String Caller) {
                // create the user interface
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            myjob= new MyJob("Alone","");
            System.out.println(description);
            System.out.println(title);
         * returns a string from the resource bundle.
        public static String getResourceString(String key) {
     String value = null;
     try {
         value = bundle.getString(key);
     } catch (MissingResourceException e) {
         System.out.println("java.util.MissingResourceException: Couldn't find value for: " + key);
     return value;
// the following is myjob.properties file
title=Job name
description=Job descripiton
//the following is myjob_zh_CN.properties file
title=Job name
description=Job descripitonwhen the description in myjob_zh_CN.properties file does not exist. the result is OK. but when I set the description in myjob_zh_CN.properties. the result prints nothing! the other items like title is OK.
Does anyone know where is the problem?
Thanks

The character encoding can be problematic. Best edit the resource bundle with NetBeans IDE or use native2ascii to translate all chinese into backslash+u+unicode hex.
Did you try US-ASCII, a description like in your example? Maybe the file does not end with a newline?
An aside: I am only familiar with "#" as start of a comment line.

DHCP client hostname unknown

I have a SunBlade using Solaris 9 with the DHCP client. I am requesting the DHCP information from a w2k box that is sharing my DSL connection. I cannot seem to get the configuration to provide a hostname (always comes back "unknown"). Any suggestions?

Hi there,
Edit the file /etc/init.d/network and change the line that reads
"dhcp") hostname=`/sbin/dhcpinfo Hostname` ;;
to
# "dhcp") hostname=`/sbin/dhcpinfo Hostname` ;;
"dhcp") hostname=`/usr/bin/cat /etc/nodename` ;;
Then, edit the file /etc/init.d/inetsvc and change the line that reads
hostname=`/sbin/dhcpinfo Hostname`
to
# hostname=`/sbin/dhcpinfo Hostname`
hostname=`/usr/bin/cat /etc/nodename`
Save the files and reboot the system. The system's hostname will be the
entry in the file /etc/nodename.

Strange behavior when "trying" to burn a disk.

At least I think this is strange behavior, following the instructions in the help viewer, topic "Backing up your music to a CD or DVD." One thing for sure, it's not burning a disc and it ain't telling me why.
I select the playlist and click "Burn Disc"
Requests a blank disc. I insert one.
Message "checking media"
after about a minute, the disc ejects
Message "checking media" displays another 30 seconds
No other messages displayed.
What the ??? Shouldn't it at least display an error message??

Whoops, sorry, this was while burning a playlist.
I've also tried some Pleomax CD disks (Samsung), with no luck. I've tried burning directly from iTunes, and from Toast 7.
Of the types I've tried, the Sony DVD's have been the best for me. Haven't tried many types though. Maybe I can get disks one at a time until I find a brand my burner likes.
Still, isn't it strange that there is NO error message? It just quits?

Strange Behavior with gMSA in Server 2012 R2

Greetings,
I have been doing some testing with gMSA Accounts in a Server 2012 R2 environment (two separate environments, actually), and I have noticed something very strange that occurred in both environments, which does not appear to be occurring in one of our customer's
self-managed environments.
We created a Group Managed Service Account using the following article:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askpfeplat/archive/2012/12/17/windows-server-2012-group-managed-service-accounts.aspx
Everything went smoothly, and the account installs/tests successfully on both of the hosts that we are testing on. I am able to set my services to run under the account, and most of them appear to work fine. I am having some issues with a few of my services,
and I believe that the strange behavior I am seeing may have something to do with this - described below:
As soon as I set the service's Log On Account (via the Log On Tab under the Service's Properties), the entirety of the "Log On" tab changes to "greyed out," and I am unable to change the Log On account back via the GUI (Screenshot
attached).
I found that I am able to successfully change the account via Command Line using sc.exe, but the Log On tab remains greyed out! So far, I have found nothing to remedy this, but confirmed that it happens for any service I set to use the gMSA as the Logon
Account, and that it happens in 2 separate test environments, but not in a Customer's production environment - very strange.
All servers in this environment are running Server 2012 R2, and domain Functional Level is currently Server 2012.
I have been unable to find any information online about this behavior, so I am hoping someone has seen this before, and can explain why this is happening.
Nick

VIvian,
Yes, we used the Install-AdServiceAccount gMSA command on each host using the gMSA account, and then ran Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA, which returned "True."
However, one thing I noticed is that if I run Test-ADServiceAccount gMSA as a Local Administrator, it fails with the following:
PS C:\Users\Administrator> Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
Test-AdServiceAccount : The server has rejected the client credentials.
At line:1 char:1
+ Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : SecurityError: (:) [Test-ADServiceAccount], AuthenticationException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ActiveDirectoryCmdlet:System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException,Microsoft.A
   ctiveDirectory.Management.Commands.TestADServiceAccount
If I run Test-ADServiceAccount gMSA as Domain Administrator, it returns true:
PS C:\Users\Administrator.<domainname>> Test-AdServiceAccount gMSA$
True
Is this normal?
Overall, I think the issue I am running into is at the Application Level, and not a problem with the gMSA, as it appears to be working. (Can Start/Stop services without any issues). I will be investigating my issue further with 3rd-party vendors, unless
you think there is something wrong with my gMSA accounts based on the information I have provided.

Strange Behavior from iTunes 7.2

Running itunes - 7.2Recently had my itunes library “corrupted” or non functional.
Spent a long, long time rebuilding the library (see below) and noticed some strange behavior that has me terrified that itunes is corrupted and I am going to loose all the hard work, etc..
1. I have about 100 GB of music in various formats (apple protected/itunes store, mp3 (128 to 320), apple lossless, wav) and when I tried to rebuild the library by clicking on add to library it only added about 65 GB of the 100 GB. I had to go through and figure out what was missing and manually choose the specific folder when I added it.
Major pain and very time consuming.
So it is not adding songs correctly, but through way too much effort able to work around this.
2. About ½ of the itunes store tunes I purchased are no longer apple protected format. Somehow they were converted to mp3 at 192kbs. Some of the songs play fine others are now not as crisp and make a poping sound or skip. How could this happen? Are these files corrupted? Will I loose them?
3. At the top center of itunes the information bar, where the read out is for what song is playing and how much time has elapsed in the song, is not working. When I click on a song it starts playing but the elapsed time bar and counter never move, and when the next song starts playing the information never changes. It is stuck on what ever song you initiate play with by clicking on it and the information stays frozen.
4. itunes randomly stops playing at the end of a song….If listening to an album it is usually after three or four songs and when listening to a play list it is usually after one song.
I am afraid itunes is corrupted and will not function correctly and I am going to loose the hard work I put in trying to recover from the last crash.
Any suggestions??
Can’t wait for time machine. I hope it works as advertised. If so I could just go back in time to the last time iTunes worked correctly and go from there.

First of all I hope that you have a good b/u of all your tunes - either on ext HD or on DVD. Don't forget to b/u the iTunes Library and .xml files at the same time.
Have you tried to reinstall iTunes? Drag the app to the trash and remove the iTunesX.pkg from HD>Library>Receipts>iTunesX.pkg. Using a fresh .dmg of iTunes 7.2 reinstall.
Have you repaired permissions with Disk Utility?
Is your Quicktime up to date? At least version v7.1.5.

Solaris 8 on x86: been there, am back

Just a quick opinion on my Solaris experience: it's as evil as Win2K when it comes to partitioning, except it's even harder (in my case not possible) to get lilo to boot Solaris, even on a primary partition... it's not quicker than Linux or FreeBSD, as user-hostile as *BSD, the install feels clunky and awkward...
CDE is awful, even XFCE beats it by miles, I'm glad GNOME is there but not for x86 alas??
ash could really be replaced by bash or anything with command line completion for instance, etc etc.
I won't blame them for lack of hardware support, but as it is I was without network under Solaris (USB ADSL), so really there wasn't much to keep me using it. Except it's messed up my partitions badly enough that I had to reinstall Linux and FreeBSD...
I am sure quite a few of you disagree with that, but I haven't seen any reason to stick to Solaris on my x86. Dissenting opinions please feel free to do so, I am disappointed but curious nevertheless...

Hello,
Actually, I have had a miserable experience attempting to install Solaris 8 on "ANY" INTEL hardware I have. At least, you were able to get it to install. It's a shame though, Sun and others complain about how Microsoft is trying to monopolize, but as much as I do agree for the most part, I have to give it to MS. Their OS' 95/98/W2K/NT, they all work on "ANY" hardware it seems as long as you can get the drivers from the manufacturer -- from the oldest to the newest machines.
For Sun to enjoy a better share of the market, it needs to spend more time ensuring its OS works(even if it's not supported) on most INTEL H/W. This will ensure people, like myself(consultants) who are looking at new possibilities for Unix can seriously consider the product by evaluating it on simple machines and once proven can actually consider the product as part of a recommendation to customers. What this has reaffirmed, is that, the big 3 Unix houses -- HP, SUN, and IBM have a great product on Mid-to-Mainframes but are still sleeping while MS makes a BIG whole in their pocket with software that works on ANY! platform or H/W. The reality is that I would be hard pressed to recommend Linux for any "Prime Time" production(don't get me wrong, Linux is just fine and I use it and will continue to use it, but it's not ready for prime time) application and although I do not believe MS NT or 2K has the maturity of Unix, it certainly stands out in terms of viability. If this is another way to sell more proprietary boxes, I'll just say -- remember what happened to apple? Great product with a very smaaall market share...
As you can tell, I am deeply dissapointed because SUN make awsome workstations and servers and can easly translate that success to the INTEL platform by having their software run on more H/W(even if it's not supported). This would definitely go a long way, in my opinion, to gain the market share they seem to be wanting to acquire since they did take MS to court.
Very Dissapointed,
Frank

Installation of solaris 10 on x86 intel dual core or core 2 duo

hi all,
while i am installing solaris 10 on x86 machine which has 250 GB hard disk and 4 GB RAM with intel dual core processor
the first steps are going cool i.e. in the first cd it asks about partitions and it is accepting the partitions and also the partitions sizes what i am giving are:
/ -- 30 GB, /etc -- 6GB, /home -- 6GB, /usr -- 6GB, /export/home -- 100GB, /var -- 9GB, swap-- 10GB
and after the first CD got installed it asks for restart the system and when it
boots then i am getting the booting option and i selected it as solaris and one more thing to tell is it has already Windows XP pro+sp2
after selecting it boots with solaris and
after few seconds it restarts
please tell me if any body knows that is there any compatability issue with the processor that solaris is not going to support for intel core 2 duo or dual core processors
looking for the good reply

OK, so what are the options if we run the HCL check and come up with some incompatibilities??
I have Solaris 11/06 (from DVD media) installed on a brand new Dell Inspiron 530 (dual boot with XP). After the grub menu appears, and selecting 'Solaris', it takes about 3 minutes to get to a command line. I get a few errors at that time, such as:
file in / differ from the boot archive: /etc/path_to_inst
cannot find /etc/devices/mdi_ib_cache: no such file
I tried running 'svcadm clear system/boot-archive' and it seems to attempt to boot into a graphical CDE, but I just end up with an unintelligible multi-colored display, and need to power off.
I've checked the HCL and found some incompatibilities, but I don't know how to work-around these?
Running the Hardware compatibility test came up with the following:
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Communication
Conexant
HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Network
Intel Corporation
*82562V-2 10/100 Network Connection*
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Multimedia
Intel Corporation
HD Audio Controller
Can I simply disable the Modem and the HD audio in windows XP device manager, then reboot to Solaris, to get around these two (I tried this already)??
For the network card driver incompatibility, there is a Sun doc that says the workaround is to run: update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,1064"' iprb, but when I run this command at the initial Solaris command line, or try to edit any file for that matter, I get the error "read-only file system" Seems I have my hands tied in maintenance mode.
Thanks.

Strange behavior with Zoom and Image control

HELP - I have a strange behavior (bug?) with using Zoom
effect on an Image that has been placed on a Canvas. I am using
dynamically instantiated images which are placed on a canvas inside
a panel. I then assign a Zoom IN and Zoom Out behavior to the
image, triggered by ROLL_OVER and ROLL_OUT effect triggers. THE BUG
is that the image jumps around on the Zoom OUT and lands on a
random place on the canvas instead of coming back to the original
spot. This is especially true if the mouse goes in and out of the
image very quickly. HELP -- what am I doing wrong? Computer = Mac
OS X 10.4.9 Flex 2.0.1
Here's a simple demo of the bug -- be sure to move the mouse
in and out rapidly:

There must be bugs in the Zoom effect code -- I changed the
Zoom to Resize in the above code, and it works perfectly. Of
course, Resize is not as nice as Zoom because you can't set the
resize to be around the center of the image, but at least it works.
Does anyone know about bugs in the Zoom effect?

Strange behavior from a PB G4 (Part 2)

On to my next issue. Often when I'm typing the insertion point will jump to someplace other than where it should be or just disappear all together. I'm not doing anything to cause it to do this. I've been being really carefull to not to do anything wrong. I'ts often enough to be a real nuisance. It happened 7 times during my first post (Strange behavior from a PB G4) and 3 times during this one. Please help. Thanks.

Did you use the iFixit website? It has excellent pictures and instructions that are easy to follow.
Replacing any hard disk drive will be challenging for a paraplegic, but with someone's help it can be done fairly inexpensively. There are many tiny fasteners that require tiny tools. Use an egg carton to store them, separated by their location in the PowerBook.
Earlier PowerBooks are easier to work on than later ones.
I still use a PowerBook G4 on occasion, mostly for importing video for editing in iMovie. I upgraded its original 60 GB HD to a much larger one. If you were to do this you would need to locate the PowerBook's original System Install DVD to install and subsequently update OS X and all its original programs.
If you ensure at least a few gigabytes free space, I think most of your problems will be fixed. When free disk space gets down to a few hundred megabytes or less, performance will suffer dramatically. You don't want it to ever get anywhere near that low. Strange things start to happen.
Keep the number of icons on the Desktop to a minimum also. That makes a difference, for reasons that I do not fully understand.

Hi Hal, :)
# /opt/SUNWsymon/sbin/es-start -a
Could not start Agent.I've seen this before too. "svcadm enable/disable sunmcagent" didn't fix things. But for some reason if I started the agent interactively (es-start -ai) it worked... and I let the Agent load a few modules and verified it worked in the Console. Then once I quit out of interactive mode (thereby stopping the Agent) svcadm enable/disable and es-start/stop worked correctly again.
I had that happen to me 2-3 times now, and every time mucking about in interactive mode a bit fixed it. It must reset something in svcs.

Installing Solaris 10 on x86

I have downloaded the iso files and zip files(all 5 files) for Solaris 10 for x86.
How do I go about installing it on a particular partition?I
am running Win XP Pro, but have made an unformated partition on a logical drive in the extended partitions.
How much disc space do I need?(The documentation says 2gb,but I guess I shud allocate mroe?

I've just installed Solaris 10 1/06 yesterday. I have already had windows xp installed on my system and there was no problem with this. At that time the partition configuration was: 5,5GB for the Primary Partition on which XP was installed and the rest to about 80GB was an extended partition (logical).
Using Partition Magic I resized and moved the logical (larger) partition so that I would get some free space before and after that partition. I've used the "left side" unused space created to enlarge the winXP NTFS partition to a total of 9GB. The unformatted space of 15 GB remaining at the "right side" I've formatted as a primary partition (FAT32) - this does not really matter, but I wanted there to be a partition I could see.
As you can see, I reserved 15 GB for Solaris 10. The full installation costs about 6-6,5 GB. During install you will be prompted for a sort of "drive configuration" in which I specified about 10GB for the Solaris system, 4GB for my Home "drive"/directory (I'm not used to Unix terminology) and about 850 MB for Swap (beeing taken into consideration the physical memory of 512MB). The system works fine like this. The only problem I get now is that Partition Magic will not start anymore in windows because it does not recognize the Solaris partition and that creates an error. :P
Hope it helps.

Solaris Express Developer x86 -- only 64-bit?

Hi, people, glad to be back. Just downloaded Solaris Express Developer edition x86 and installed -- almost with no problems.
It's a system with Intel Celeron D with 64-bit and Hyper Threading support, DDR2 1Gb.
Now running Solaris I noticed it's a 64-bit version, not 32-bit, as I meant to have. The command `isainfo -n` gives back ... "amd64"!
Is there a 32-bit version of Solaris Express DE x86?
Or maybe I need not worry at all and keep running the 64-bit one (actually, I've got no problem as yet)?
Thanks in advance for any comments.

So, my system supports 64-bit computing after all. I
never thought about it, in fact.
But does it mean Solaris Express DE x86 runs as
64-bit on the systems supporting 64-bit, and as
32-bit on 32-bit-only systems?Yes, that's correct. Solaris 10 was the first version of Solaris to support 64 bit operation on the x86 architecture.
It and later versions (including Solaris Express DE x86) should automatically detect the architecture and run in that mode at boot time. There are some ways to force it to run in 32 bit mode only if necessary, but that would be unusual.
