Virtualisation Remote Access and Server

Guys,
Question about licensing:
I have a Mac Lion 10.7.2 Server, so the questions are based around that but would like to know differences for other licenses or systems. This is being used in a corporate testing enviroment and we would like to increase its use by have multiple users/remote users.....but licensing looks an issue/complex.
There seem to be 2 licenses Mac OS X Server (Lion) licence and Mac OS X (Lion 10.7.2) licence? Does one superceed the other or do they run 'together' if you have Mac Lion 10.7.2 Server?
According to the 2nd (Lion 10.7.2) license you can run 2 virtual machines in addition the the running one. So this is 3 altogether? One being the main OS and the other 2 virtual. Are there anyways of running all 3 in a hypervisor (vmware Vsphere like?) and is this allowed under the license(s)? This also seems to be only for 'downloaded' and not pre-installed software.
Also in the 2nd (Lion 10.7.2) license it is possible to have Remote Desktop Connections. This is not mentioned in the first (server) license?
Both licenses mention the you can use the OS "by multiple individuals on a single shared Mac Computer that you own or control." but then seem to limit this to one user at a time. Can you have multiple Remote (VNC) desktop with multiple users? If not with these licenses which can you use?
Can you point me to who to/how to ask about these?
Thanks
Ben

The ACLs appear to be working fine. I am passing IP traffic for all of the configured subnets with the exception of the remote access subnet. I have both ends of the tunnel configured with the RA subnet in the crypto map. I am not using reverse route injection. Actually I am not at all familiar with it. Do you think this is where I should start looking?
Thanks

Remote access and network services problem

I have a Mac Pro with two IP configs:
Ethernet 1: 69.##.##.## /255.255.255.248 [hidden for public forum security]
Ethernet 2: 10.0.0.20/255.255.255.0
My primary needs:
Able to remotely access the Mac via Remote Desktop using the public IP. Local LAN connectivity using 10.##.##.##.
Setup:
I have a 10 public IP address from my ISP and using one of the 10 now. Everything pings OK.
Question:
How can I customize the network service so that I can select the Ethernet 1 or Ethernet 2 port to use? So far it forces me select Ethernet 1 for all of the services selected. I'd like to use FTP & Web Server & Remote Access on the Ethernet 2 (public). The rest is LAN. I notice that Appletalk is only allowable on a single IP.
Quick experiment with the Internet sharing using Ethernet 2 (public) to Ethernet 1 failed to provide the desired forwarding result.
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I think you need to go further into the settings and define FTP etc. to the specific Ethernet. There are also settings Automatic and where you define your connection. I have a 3 inch book that I will look at to see if they address it. I to plan to do something similar, but haven't got there yet.

Remote access terminal server & VOIP phone issues

I pose a question to the community. I work and manage a building that remotely accesses a terminal services server for my users to view an ERP application at our other building. Lately we have issues where those users when the let their screen idle lose their connection and have to wait with a customer on the line to reconnect to the Terminal Server. We don't have the server set to boot users off after any amount of time and the users at the other building have no issue of course since its on site. We also have a Mitel VOIP system and on regular occasion the calls go static or drop all together. Ive done trace routes from the router at both buildings and it seems to get stuck at a Level3 datacenter in Washington DC. Ive contacted my ISP's NOC asking for them to contact Level3 to look into the issue, but the responder gave me grief and...

Having them both kills being able to access the Net.Take out the gateway on your loopback adapter and network traffic should happen as normal :)
Is this configured only in TNSNAMES.ORA, and if so how?It's configured in listener.ora, but changing the port won't change the amount of traffic nor the Oracle load, it will just make everything slightly more confusing to everyone trying to help you troubleshoot your machine ;)

Radius for 802.1x; Remote Access and Wireless authentication

Looking to use a single Radius platform for authenticating Remote, wired and wireless users and machines. Anyone with some experience with that use to share some lessons learns...

Hello Richard,
there is a previous post from a user who wants to add authentication to his Cisco ACS Radius server for wireless clients, it might be worth contacting that user to see how he resolved this...here is the link to the thread:

Creating large scale secure document repository for remote access and a few other Azure questions

Hello Microsoft Community,
Is there a way to put a bunch of documents in Azure storage and present them to an end user via an interface that is either web based or local that will provide security (log in control) to the folders and logging along with allowing access from multiple
sites? I have a large document library of medical records that have been scanned to PDF format that are historical. They moved EMR systems to a new system and the documents I'm talking about are historical access only in case a patient needs historical records
and aren't in the new system. Records staff would need to be able to log into said site, gain access to the files, search by file name and print / copy / save the PDF document so it can be sent to the patient requesting the info.

Shared access signature and stored access policy can be used in this case.
A shared access signature is a URI that grants restricted access rights to containers, blobs, queues, and tables for a specific time interval. By providing
a client with a shared access signature, you can enable them to access resources in your storage account without sharing your account key with them. A stored access policy provides an additional level of control over shared access signatures on the server
side.
For more details, please refer the following links:

No remote access and not UI access

I could not access my "WD My Cloud" neither using remote ssh nor using browser UI. Any help please??? Thank You.

If you mean that you cannot connect to it locally, either via SSH, or via the UI, then your router has probably changed your device's IP address. http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-My-Cloud/Call-me-maybe-WD-Connectivity-Issues/m-p/881587

HT4623 I tried to update my iTunes tonight....waited and now it says something is corrupt?? I also tried to update my iPad and it didn't work after waiting for 4 hours for that one. I need a remote access and John Whitaker is the one I want to do this f

What is going on with my iPad update. I waited for four hours letting it "update" and after the alloted time, it tells me that I needed to update my iTunes first. After doing that, I can't even get into my iTunes. It says a file is corrupt. This is making me less and less impressed with these updates. I have trouble 80% of the time.

What iPad model and what iOS is it currently running? Are you trying to update the iOS via wifi or connected to your computer?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

How to configure Time Capsule etc as a local network server with remote access server and for backups

I'm trying to set up new 3TB Time Capsule as a wireless network server (with remote access) and for backups for use in a small office (of two Macs). We have a late 2011 Intel MBP and a brand new MBA both running 10.8.3. We have two external 1TB hard drives that until now have been attached the MBP for storage and backing up that computer, which up until now was the only machine in use. The MBA is for a new employee and we need to share and work on the same files, both here in the office and ideally remotely too via Back to my Mac. The MBP needs constant access. The MBA only occasional. The TC has 7.6.3 firmware and we've set it up using AirPort Utility 6.2. It is currently attached to the MBP via ethernet and it has internet access via a Sagemcom router attached to TC's WAN port.
We've managed to set up a wireless network and both have wireless internet access through the TC
But there are so many issues I don't know where to begin - so I'll start with a description of what we're trying to achieve:
I planned to use the TC as the main server drive and place all the key folders and files there so that both of us can access them wirelessly and remotely. The MBP would back up to the TC and to one or two of the external hard drives - one being attached to the Mac via USB and the other being attached to the TC's USB port. We would back up the important data on the TC using SuperDuper and copy it to both external USB drives.
So , first of all, is that a sensible configuration? Should the 'server' be the one of the external hard drives attached to the TC USB port, backed up regularly to the TC using SuperDuper?

But when you say 'So using USB drive does make sense if you want to use it as a file store', do you mean a USB drive plugged into the TC? I hope that I can attach an external drive to the TC so we can all access and read/write the content wirelessly via the TC network or remotely.
Yes, USB.. as it prevents the sparsebundle mixing with data files. I guess it does depend on how much data you are talking about.. you can use the TC internal disk if you are careful and setup the sparsebundle with fixed sizes once you create them..
And to be clear, I wasn't planning on backing up remotely via BTMM - only to access the shared folders on the TC data drive or USB external drive attached to it. I'm assuming that's ok?
Yes, that is fine. Sorry I got the impression you were going to do backup over internet.
What is the alternative? Having a Mac Mini that's always on? Do I need OS X Server etc.?
A mini would be great.. you don't need server edition.. but I would see how the TC goes.. since you have it and it is much lower power consumption device. It is just that its design is not really for file storage.
One big problem I have is to do with the sharing permissions. For everything on the TC or attached external drive attached to it, it says I have only custom access and every time I try to change permissions it says I don't have the permission to do that. And if I try to change the owner it says my user name is not valid.
How is the security setup on the TC?
The security is a bit tricky.. I must admit since I run windows computer in the network, that I simply turn on the guest account to read and write access. For a business setup that might not be adequate but it allows me full access to all the files.
If you setup the TC with user accounts then you are in trouble. That makes it very difficult to access, especially if one person already has the file open you may find a second user cannot login. I am not sure as I have avoided the security. IMHO it is meaningless.. since anyone with physical access to the TC can press the reset for one second and has full access.. and can add or change passwords.

Routing and Remote Access Logs (Windows Server 2008 R2)

Hi,
I have a Windows 2008 R2 server running Routing and Remote access and users are using PPTP VPN's to connect to our network.
I have been asked to find logs for the following for connections in to our server
Username used for connection
Computer Name
IP Address used by computer connecting
Start/End time of VPN session
Date
Encryption used
I found an article stating to enable RRAS logs you need to run the following command
To enable RAS logs run command “netsh ras set tracing * enabled” and found a series of logs created in this location C:\Windows\tracing
None appear to contain the information I am looking for and was wondering if I was doing this correctly and if not how I am meant to extract this information?
If you require any more details just let me know.
Kind Regards
David

Hi,
I can’t sure which article you have read, but fur the 2008R2 the RAS to enable the log and the debug log in the KB is descried like this, I recommend you to try the KB
mentioned method.
To configure RRAS to enable logging
1. Start Server Manager. Click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Server Manager.
2. In the navigation tree, expand Roles, and then expand Network Policy and Access Services.
3. Right-click Routing and Remote Access, and then click Properties.
4. On the Logging tab, select Log errors only, Log errors and warnings, or Log all events, depending on how much information you want to capture.
5. Click OK to save your changes.
The related KB:
RRAS: Logging should be enabled on the RRAS server

Active directory domain services stopped after removing routing and remote access role

Hello everyone;;
I am in deep trouble.. I did install routing and remote access and then lost connection to the server remotely. Then I connected a monitor to the server and removed the role... then it asked me to restart the server . After logging back in I found
all my active directory service has gone... I can see red cross on active directory domain services.. Also I am able to ping other pcs but other pcs cannot ping my server..
However when I go into the active directory services, it shows all services are running except file replication service. I have tried to start that service but it give error 1053 error..
My server in between loses LAN connection... I dont know what is going on.. Please help!!!
My server is win 2008 R2 ser pack 1
Only one DC....
Has fixed ip,
no DNS server running..

Hi,
The File Replication Service Start Error 1053 error can be caused by damaged Windows system files. Corrupted system files entries can threaten the well-being of your computer. Many events can result in creating system file errors.
Please refer to the articles below to troubleshoot the issue:

Vpn site to site and remote access , access lists

Hi all, we run remote access and site to site vpn on my asa, my question is Can I create an access list for the site to site tunnel, but still leave the remote access vpn to bypass the access list via the sysopt command, or if I turn this off will it affect both site to site and remote access vpn ?

If you turn off sysopt conn permit-vpn it will apply to both your site to site and remote access vpn...all ipsec traffic. You would have to use a vpn-filter for the site to site tunnel if you wanted to leave the sysopt in there.

Westell 7500 - can't remote access into work from laptops (desktop ok), no TiVO connection either

I successfully set up my "upgraded" Verizon DSL service and modem two weeks ago (have had internet connection on desktop and laptops since) but with that transition I lost the ability to remote access into my work computer from home and to have my TiVo connect to its server. I am just completely disgruntled at Verizon's request to pay them $89 for the tech support I need to get my new stuff working as well as my old stuff did - and I'm hoping someone out there can help me instead.
The computer help guys at work said the system at work's port is 3389 and TiVo's support website give as whole list of possible ports (http://support.tivo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/402/c/105%2C109/r_id/100041). Is this issue something that can be resolved in the router's port forwarding window? Is so, how do I set that up correctly? If it's something else, please tell me what and how! I've read the Veralink 7500 User Manual and I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance for any help that's out there! And happy Father's Day to you... if that applies!

I solved the problems myself... and here's the solution in case anyone else would like to keep $89 in their pockets!
In both instances (remote access to work and connecting to the TiVO network), it is indeed the Port Forwarding feature you need to use in the Versalink 7500 router setup website (people will try to disuade you of this!). In both cases, I did the following just using different port numbers (depending on what I was trying to get my computer to talk to) and with my computer's firewall on and the router's firewall set to medium. Sorry I couldn't figure out how to post screen shots in this post... prepare to visualize!
1. On the "New Port Forwarding Rule" page, click on "create" for #1, pick "host" for #2, and then select the computer your router is connected to in #3 (it might work with one of the other computers selected, but mine worked with the device he router was connected to).
2. You need to do this step twice - first time select "direction" IN (in #3), second time select "direction" OUT. On the "Create Port Forwarding Service" page, you can name it whatever you want for #1, keep "port forwading" selected" in #2, in #3 you'll need to figure out (a) if you need to select TCP, UDP, or BOTH for "protocol" (based on the online or manual documentation for the system you're trying to connect with), (b) "global portstart" (c) "global startend" and (d) "base hostport" should also be found in the documentation (see note below for Windows remote access and TiVo port info that worked for me) and they are all the same number (ex., global portstart = 80, global startend = 80, and base hostport = 80), and then (e) select the direction (first time, in; second time, out... remember, computer communication is a two-way street, just like humans!), and (f) leave "port direction" as DST. Then you need to (g) click apply after you've added all the ports in both directions (my screen started this sequence of freaky flashy glitchy behavior, but apparently that was the fairy dust making the computer magic happen b/c when it was done, my connectivity was restored!).
3. The port that worked for me to remote access from Windowss PC to Windows PC was 3389.
4. This is the site that had the big list of ports for TiVo, but I think it was ports 80 and 8080 (see the first entry under the troubleshooting port issues) that made the magic happen for me: http://support.tivo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/402/c/105%2C109/r_id/100041
I hope this is useful to some others and that you just saved yourself $89 in tech support charges for this irritating little issue... go buy yourself a drink and enjoy the summer!
Now I'm off to figure out how to back up these router settings based on the less-than-friendly-to-laymen-computer-users Versalink manual. Wish me luck!

Remote Access: Configure Video Playback to not go black

While using Remote Access Media server the display will go black in the middle of the video the sound will keep playing and if you touch your keypad or mouse fast enough the screen will start up again but if you aren't paying attention you may have to
sign back into your computer. Is there any settings either in Windows 8.1 or on Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2 that I can change to get this behavior to stop.

Hi,
Regarding to your description, did you mean when the screen came black, if you didn’t do anything, you had to entry password and then log on computer
again? Or just the screen gone black, then you operate, the screen came back? Did you always encounter this issue at the same time when the video plays?
Based on current state, please refer to the path: Control Panel-> Power Options-> Change plan settings, then check the setting “Turn off the
display”. How many minutes you set to the setting? And, please follow the path: Control Panel-> Personalization-> Screen Saver, then check how long the waiting time you set.
By the way, would you please use another Player to play the video, will encounter the same issue?
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu
