Trying to create user template and login script

I'm trying to setup a machine at work that's got an Admin account and a Student account.
I want the student account to have limited privileges and to reset the desktop, dock etc. (user template) upon login.
I've got a document here that was created by a former employee that states the following:
Create a user template: (do this from the admin account)
*Sudo ditto /Users/Student /Student/Library/User\ Template/Student.lproj*
Upon entering this into terminal I was getting a message saying the real path was wrong, and now nothing happens when I enter the above.
Ok, so in: "system/Library/User Template" there is a folder called Student.lproj
Within Student.lproj there are no files.
Should Student.lproj even exist there with no contents for this to work? When Terminal creates a template, does it copy this information into Student.lproj or does it create a new folder for the template?
The account is hanging for quite a while on Login and logout now as well.
Once I create this template for the Student account, I need to create a login script that will restore the template upon login of the Student account.
please help

It's /System/Library/... not /Student/Library
Also, if you want it to reset at log out, just have them log in as Guest.

500 internal server error when trying to create users

I am getting a 500 internal server error when trying to create users. What is the cause? We tried reinstalling the latest java jdk release and that didn't help.

Check whether your DBControl or ASControl service is still running or crashed. EM is not able to connect to the Management Server.
For instance in Windows, you may see that the Servise is not started. Then check for error logs in $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/logs for any related error messages in the log files

Trying to create a template

Hello, I'm Dreamweaver CS3 and have been trying to create a
template for an existing web site. I am taking over a site that was
created by someone using Homesite.
Whenever I create the initial template and try to apply it to
the existing site I get an error message saying the "template is
nested within itself". What is it I am missing?
Thanks in advance.

Can we see the code for the template, and one of the pages
that throws this
error, please?

Novell Client and Login Scripts?

All:
I'm a former administrator of NetWare 3.x, 4.x and 5.x systems and am
intrigued by the NLSBS 9 offering. I have downloaded the trial version
and have installed it on a test server.
Since I am "old school", I was wondering if I could use the Novell Client
for Windows XP and login scripts to automatically map shares using groups
like I did back in the day.
I'm very new to the Novell/Linux world since every organization I've
worked for in the past 10 years abandoned NetWare for Windows. I'm sure
a LOT has changed since the Linux OS was brought on board, so I thought
I'd ask.
Thanks,
Greg

Not sure. It would depend on whether Novell is still offering a product upgrade to the OWS from Windows 2000 SBS and what that price looks like. Otherwise, I was more thinking about the software side itself, re: the Linux side. Either way will work. Just work out the figures.
>>> <[email protected]> 5/23/2006 5:02 am >>>
I guess I'm looking at it this way: If I purchase the 5-user upgrade
license of NLSBS for $211.00 which includes upgrade protection, then
according to Novell, I can upgrade to OWS for free after July 31st. A 1-
user license for OWS at CDW is about $125.00. $125.00 x 5 = $625.00.
Is my logic flawed?

Open Directory: user authentication and logining takes a lot of time

We have Mac OS X Server Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with OpenDirectory and some iMacs with Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After adding Network Account Server in iMacs (System Preferences->Accounts->Login Options->Network Account Server Edit) OD works normally and users authenticate and login their accounts rather fast (5-10 seconds). But some days or weeks later the time for authentication and logining takes for about 5 minutes. If I re-add Network Account Server, then all works greatly again. What's the matter? How to avoid this re-adding?

Hello,
can you tell us what is the size of this Universe in terms of:
number of tables, number of objects, size of the .unv file?
Also, is this behaviour specific to this universe or you have other universes having the same problem?
Last, are you 'opening it' as in File/Open or importing it as in 'File/Import...' ?
Thanks

HT201177 I am trying to create home movies and each time there is no sound when I play back the disc. The sound is there when I play back in imovie and also after I've shared with idvd and played back. Not sure what else to do???

I am trying to create home movies, and do not have sound on the final disc. The sound is there in imovie and after sharing to idvd. This has only happened a couple of times before and I have made a lot of movies. I have just gone through about 8 discs, all with no audio when I play them!!!

You need to ask for support in the iMovie forum.

Trying to create an image and save it on file system

Hi,
I'm trying to create an image and save it in the file system :
     public static void main(String[] args) {
     int wid = 632;
     int hgt = 864;
     BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(wid,hgt,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
     bufferedImage.getGraphics().setColor(Color.black);
     bufferedImage.getGraphics().drawOval(30, 30, 100, 100);
          bufferedImage.getGraphics().drawString("test me one two three",2,2);
          bufferedImage.flush();
try {
               ImageIO.write(bufferedImage,".bmp",new File("C:/MyImage.bmp"));
     } catch (IOException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
THE PROBLEM : It creates C:/MyImage.bmp on my file system, but the file is empty (size 0).
Am I missing something ?
Thanks

Try changing ".bmp" to "bmp". If that fails, try posting an SSCCE.

BUG! iphoto stalls when trying to create a book and no event is selected

however, works fine when trying to create a book and an event or an album is selected... obviously a bug.

Solution - do not do that
and report to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
But it is likely that updates for '09 are over since it is a couple of years old and '11 is out

How to create a template and child pages using mockup designed in Fireworks

I have created a website in Fireworks, and exported it to use in Dreamweaver. How do I use the Master page in Fireworks as my template page in Dreamweaver? When I bring in the .htm files from fireworks, it tries to bring in the entire page. I have taken 25 hours of online training for Fireworks and Dreamweaver through Lynda.com, but there is not a specific video that tells you how to get your website from Fireworks into Dreamweaver if you want to utilize the Template and child page features.

Use Fireworks to crop, slice and optimize images only. DO NOT allow any graphics app to generate your HTML code for you. This results in poorly formed code and rigid layouts that invariably fall apart when you attempt to edit them in DW. Fireworks / Photoshop generated pages are for quick prototypes or design comps to show the client. They do not work well on production sites.

Is it possible to run an application from a user or container login script?

Is it possible to run an application from a user login script or a container login script?
A "Force Run" application object works fine if the user's workstation is setup to auto-load "Application Window" or "Application Explorer" but in this case I'd like to run an application when someone does a manual login (ie. they right-click red "N" and choose "Novell Login...")
Using a User Package's "Scheduled Action Policy" and the Event=Login also does not work when a user logs in manually. This type of Event seems to only apply when the user first logs into the workstation, not at a manual login.
Thanks,
Marc

Yes, see the documentation:

Logic X crashes when trying to create groove template

Hi,
I've been trying to create a groove template from a small audio loop, but Logic consistently freezes and doesn't respond when i try and do this... im on Logic X 10.0.5.
Thanks
Chris

Here's a workaround until this is fixed:
Groove Template from Audio Region
1. Select Audio Region and activate Flex Time, select slicing, leave quantise off
2. Double click audio region to open editor, leave in Track mode
3. Manually Add Flex markers at all the transients
4. Switch to Flex Pitch mode (this can be done from the Audio Editor window you are in)
5. Still in the Audio editor go to the Edit menu and select ‘Create MIDI Track from Flex Pitch Data’
6. Close the edit window, select the new MIDI region and choose ‘Make Groove Template’ from quantise menu

User template and Novell ActiveSync provisioning

Here is what my Novell tree looks like. A user template exists at the Location level and also at the business unit level. If there's a user template exists at the business unit level, then it will take precedent over the user template at the Location level. When I provision a user, I need to pick a user template.
Continent
|______Location
______User Template (UT)
|______Business Unit
_______User Template (UT)
1) How do I detect if there's a user template exists at a given branch?
2) I can't put a user template on the resource parameters page since it could exists at different places. How do I dynamically assign a user template to a user in the form during ActiveSync provisioning?
Thanks

Has anyone assign a user template dynamically in a custom form before? I tried to map to the objectclass attribute in the resource schema but I got the below error during the provisioning process of a new user
Error: NWDSReadAttrDef: 0xFFFFFDA5 (-603): ERR_NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE
Could not get syntax for attribute 'objectClass'. The attribute name may not be correct.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
