VPN conversion (from OSX Server 10.2)

I am trying to implement VPN in 10.4. However, we had used the workaround in 10.2 to set up VPN (using PPTP), this involved editing /etc/hostconfig (to include VPN SERVER=-YES-,VPN_ARGS=" ",IPFORWARDING=-YES-) and setting up valid IP numbers in /etc/ppp/pptp_address. Finally, you "created" the file /etc/ppp/chap-secrets which stored the VPN usernames, passwords, server address, etc.
I am trying to use the VPN features in 10.4, but they don't seem to work. I've taken out the added edits in /etc/hostconfig, but no luck. I can't even find the pptp_addresses or the chap-secrets files! But, that version of VPN still works! Anybody have any good advice?

So when you are outside your network, and try to ping your address "mydomain.com", does it actually resolve to your domain?
At your router, do you have the VPN ports forwarded to your server's internal IP address?
On the server, you need to use server admin to define users (or groups of users) and grant them VPN priveledges.  Then use one of these users to attempt to login.  For me, I've consistently used their unix shortname as the userid when logging in, and had no troubles.
The VPN config asks what IP address range to assign to the clients.  From what I've read, you want to use a range that is distinctively different from your default internal IP address range.  Otherwise, some things won't work.  For example, if your internal network IP addresses are in the range 192.168.1.xxx, you'd configure the VPN options to assign VPN clients addresses in the range 192.168.2.xxx, so that they are differentiated.

  • Downgrade from OSX Server to NON_SERVER

    Hi, upon recommendation of an Apple employee friend I bought the OSX server 2 years ago. I would like to downgrade to the non-server version. I currently run OS X 10.4.11 Server. I would like to be running the non-server OS. I have a 10.5 upgrade/install disk that I will use when I have a non-server OS to upgrade (but currently the upgrade will not allow me to upgrade from osx-server).
    In the past 2 years I have added tons of software and configuration. To rebuild my machine from scratch may take a week and I still wont have all the settings I currently use and need. So I want to avoid a fresh install of the non-server OS.
    Is there a way to do this? Whether following apple rules or perhaps just tweaking a file somewhere that makes the OS think its non-server? I am very comfortable editing files and using bash etc.
    I would like to trick the OS into thinking it is non-server so that I can use my Leapord install disk to upgrade me to 10.5 non-server.
    Any ideas here? Before I rebuild my entire system from scratch?

    That would likely work, but the OP wants to retain all his customization, and some of that will be in the (admin) user sandbox.
    OP: what have you tried? Have you:
    Bought a spare decent Firewire external drive (like a seagate), clone your existing OSXS install to it with carbon copy cloner or superduper, then experimented on the clone (like, try to upgrade it with the 10.5 installer, or try Antonio's suggestion but keep the user settings)? That's where I would start. You can reclone over and over again until you find a formula that works -- or exhaust all possibilities -- without risking your existing install.
    And report back here with your results -- it may save someone else someday.

  • Pages from OSX Server - Slow and impossible

    Is anyone using Pages 08 in an office setting with OSX Tiger Server? We are an office with only 5 users and trying to migrate from AppleWorks to Pages '08. The speed at which Pages '08 saves and opens files from our server is terrible... documents take 4 to 5 times longer to open and to save a doc that it does with AppleWorks.
    Is this typical? The speed is so slow that my staff is now suggesting we move to Word or some other WP. With AWs no longer supported, we need to a new WP. Pages '08 is all that we need but the slow performance with a server makes this app a lesser choice.
    Eric

    since you posted to web server forum, i have to also add that web server 7 bundles a tomcat like web container within and can be used for your web serving needs. you can download web server 7 from http://www.sun.com/webserver

    2. The major purpose is to get a simplest way to create a parameterized function who can return a table like output. 2nd function has no use instead i was testing the result of First Function like thisIf you just want to select from a select, you should use a view not a function.
    1. which program is more help ful for writing and executing queries bcoz after using Query Analyzer of Microsoft It seems difficult to work on SQL Developer.
    sqlplus? If you are having difficulty learning new tools because of an old one you used, probably best to forget the old one and concentrate on learning the new one because it will be different. This goes for the database itself also.
    2. Can DMLs be used within a Function.Yes, you just can't execute the function in another SQL statement if it modifies data and this is a good thing.
    3. Can temporary tables be used within a function.Unfortunately yes, but they shouldn't be unless you are in a slowest application competition.
    5. Each Function which is a Table Function must be accompanied with Type Definitions?? its a bit longer way of doing the things than SQL ServerThat is why it is better to use views instead, is there any reason you want a select that you can select from inside a function?
    SQL Server for last 9 years thats why i refer this toolThat is not in itself a problem, if you try and do what you did in SQLServer in Oracle, that will be a problem though.

    I assume this is a simplified version of a more complex problem, since your second function would not return anything more than the first. If you want to use TABLE on a ref cursor, then you need to do some sort of intermediary transformation, such as using a pipelined function, as in the example in the link below. Also, this does not appear to have anything to do with objects, so should be posted in the SQL and PL/SQL forum instead.

  • Set up vpn on mac osx server

    What is the most common reason that I can connect to the newly created vpn locally but not remotely (over the wan)?

    I have had the same problem with setting up L2TP on Mavericks after upgrade.  After several failed attempts I have the following recepie.
    To test this you need to have two separate networks to connect you VPN client to.  One should be the same as where the server is running and the other needs to be different so that the incoming traffic to your router is coming from the outside.
    I'm assuming a setup with a router and behind it a local network with an OS X server running the VPN service (vpnd daemon)
    On the server
    Note the local ip-adress of your server.  This should preferably be static.
    Install the VPN fix from apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1716
    In the OS X Server VPN Service create a VPN profile where VPN Host Name is local ip-adress of the VPN server.
    Restart the VPN service and save the configuration file.
    On the router
    Open ports 500, 1701 and 4500 to pass UDP traffic to the server.  Make sure to activate them in the router interface.
    Make a note of your routers public IP address. This should be static.
    If this keeps changing you can set up a dynamic domain name (http://dyndns.org)
    Optional: verify that the ports are actually open using nmap:
    sudo nmap -Pn -sU XX.XX.XX.XX -p500,1701,4500
    Password:
    Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-02-14 14:21 CET
    Nmap scan report for ... (XX.XX.XX.XX)
    Host is up (0.012s latency).
    PORT     STATE         SERVICE
    500/udp  open          isakmp
    1701/udp open|filtered L2TP
    4500/udp open|filtered nat-t-ike
    Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.29 seconds
    XX.XX.XX.XX is the public IP-adress of the router.  You can also try the same on the local IP-address of the server.
    On the client
    Copy the configuration file and install it by double klicking on the file.
    Connect the client to the same local network as the vpn-server and activate the VPN connection. 
    Verify that the VPN connection comes up.
    Up to this point, smooth sailing. 
    Now change the Server address to the IP-address of the router and turn on extra logging found under Advanced. Save the new configuration.
    Bring up the VPN connection again.  Should work.  Right?
    I did not for me.  The error complains about the L2TP-VPN-server not responding.
    Digging deeper using the system logger I found the error
    2014-02-14 14:43:31,039 racoon[60284]: IKE Packet: receive failed. (Malformed or unexpected cookie).
    2014-02-14 14:43:31,039 racoon[60284]: Malformed cookie received or the initiator's cookies collide.
    2014-02-14 14:43:31,172 pppd[60283]: IPSec connection failed
    2014-02-14 14:43:31,172 racoon[60284]: vpn_control socket closed by peer.
    2014-02-14 14:43:31,173 racoon[60284]: received disconnect all command
    So it sort of works, but complains about some bad cookie.
    The simple change of the IP-address apparentely generates this error.
    Now change the network of the client so that it is not on the same networks as the server.
    Bring up the VPN again.  Now it just works.
    So apparently, when the traffic is coming in from the outside the VPN connection just works.
    If you change back to the local network of the server and the keep the router IP-address the error is back.
    Conclusion
    The conclusion is that the client used for connecting to the VPN network must be on an outside network.
    In retrospect, this makes sense since we should test using an environment that reproduces the actual use case. The crux is to ensure that the client traffic is coming in from the outside.
    Hope this helps.

  • Download issues from OSX Server...

    Hello,
    I have an odd issue occurring with our OSX Server (XServe RAID)... We have a directory setup as a LAMP Web Server (Apache2/PHP4). Everything works great except for one thing: downloads.
    When I attempt to view or download any file (whether it be graphics in an HTML doc or files access directly by URL), it will only allow my to view/download a small portion of the file (anywhere from 64k to 500k).
    The first place I looked was my php.ini file. This was because this problem first manifested from a PHP app I am using. Everything is set correctly in the ini file, though (I can upload files of any size -- depending on the ini settings, etc.).
    Shortly after, I realized that this issue occurs even when trying to access a file directly by entering the URL to the file (i.e., it's not a PHP issue). So, I checked my httpd.conf file and found that nothing was odd there either.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there somewhere else I can check for a "download" setting?
    Keep in mind that I'm not a LAMP expert (nor ISX server). I just need to get this working so that people can view more than just half of a webpage!
    Thanks for any help,
    Tim
    P.S. I hope I posted this to the right place.

    It's putting out that message because the apachectl that you're running isn't the one that you think that you're running. I'd estimate that you have 3 Apache setups on that box. The Apache 1.3.x, which is centered around /usr and /etc. The default Apache 2.0.x install in /opt/apache2 and an Apache 2.0.x install that you have based in /Library/Apache2.
    When you execute a command, if the command doesn't start with "/" to specify an absolute path the shell will try appending the command to each of the directories in you PATH variable until it either finds the command, or runs out of possible paths (which is when it will give a "Command not found" error). So if you type in:
    apachectl status
    it will find the apachectl program in /usr/sbin instead of the /Library/Apache2/bin/apachectl that you want. You'll either need to modify you PATH variable or use absolute paths with the commands to keep these versions straight.
    AFAIK, ServerAdmin will only work on the default install (the 1.3.x version). For any of the Apache2 setups, you'll be coniguring by hand, probably in /Library/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf.
    FWIW, I was running the /opt/apache2 daemons for a while and they started hanging and crashing. I never did figure out a reason, and had to keep the sites running, so I went back to the 1.3.x httpd.

    We plan on having a beta version of this capability in early
    August. Contact [email protected] if you want to register as
    a Beta tester.
    Yes, you can update the Oracle model in OMW to remove those
    tables you are not interested in, you can also select to just
    migrate tables & data and nothing else.

  • Email Alert/Notification from OSX Server when client status changes?

    Hi,
    I'm looking at either OSX Server or ARD to manage a network of 'client' mac minis.
    One requirement is that the system should alert - by email or other form - when a client's status changes (such as Offline, Sleep, Network Down, etc).
    Does OSX Server offer that function?
    Thank you for your help.

    Something like Dejal Simon might work for you. I don't know of any way for a Mac to detect whether the monitor is turned off or not, though.

  • Updating from OSX Server 10.4.11 to OSX Server 10.5.x

    (This has also been posted in the 10.5 section as well.)
    Question - We have a server running OSX 10.4 that we would like to
    update. Currently it's running in a local user mode, all of the users
    and user passwords and profiles are local to the server, and we have
    no open directory or domain services running.
    It is also running a separate Kerio mail server and Rumpus FTP server on
    this server.
    We perform a system clone using Carbon Copy Cloner, and then proceed
    with the update to 10.5.x.
    The only update that completes successfully is for an Advanced Server,
    but there are no users and all of the
    accounts are missing including the admin account which needs to be
    rebuilt. If we choose Standard or Workgroup, the upgrade hangs during
    the "configuring the server" step.
    What can we do to get at least a Workgroup upgrade to complete, and/or
    what can we do to
    preserve the user accounts, profiles and passwords going forward?
    As part of this process we would like to convert the existing user
    base from a local user to a open directory user data base to better
    manage the users. Do we need to do this first before we upgrade?

    Readers in the Server 10.5 forums are more likely to have conquered the issues you are wrestling with.
    You can't easily export and re-import your users' passwords. So you should "talk up" the idea that everyone will be getting a default password or something simple and unique like their home Zipcode as their password after the conversion.
    The Upgrade and Migration Guide for 10.5 should have some ideas for exporting user records. There MAY be a way to export the User records to a file, then re-import that file as Open Directory Users. Otherwise, you may be better off retyping them, if there are fewer than hundreds.
    Users' files should be directly re-useable as their Home Directories, BUT Make sure you have two or more backups. There is no quicker way to be a bum than to lose users files completely.

  • Can't authenticate Mac VPN client from RADIUS server

    Hello,
    I'm a real noob here so please bear with me.
    I have been able to configure my PIX 515E to allow VPN connections onto my network, but what I need to do is set up some sort of user authentication to control access at a user level. From what I've read here and in the Configuration Guide I should be able to do this authentication with a RADIUS server. I'm running a Corriente Networks Elektron Security server which has RADIUS server capabilities. It is running on my (inside) interface at IP 192.168.10.26.
    I thought that I had everything configured properly but it never seems to authenticate. I connect, the XAUTH window pops up, I add my username and password as it's configured on my RADIUS server, but when I click OK it just cycles the progress bar at the bottom and eventually times out. The client log doesn't show me anything and the log on the RADIUS server shows me nothing. Any ideas? this seems like it should be simple because I can connect until I attempt to authenticate to the RADIUS server.
    TIA for any direction you can provide me.

  • Retrieving calendar and contacts data from OSX Server Time Machine

    Due to a system failure I went out an brought a Macbook Air. My other Mac is away being assessed by a repair shop.
    By plugging in the Time Machine drive from the other Mac I have managed to recover my files, videos, photos etc. Contacts and Calendars however are proving to to more difficult.
    The old Mac was setup using Mavericks Server as a workaround for the removal of Calendar and Contacts iTunes sync in Mavericks.
    The Contacts and Calendars are currectly synced with an iPad and an iPhone.
    Is there anyway of recovering the Contacts and Calendars data from the Time Machine backup drive, My iPad or iPhone?
    Any help appreciated with this complicated problem.

    It sounds as if it is the same, or closely related, to this thread  Time Machine Service Page in Server App says "Error Reading Settings"

  • Conversion from SQL Server Stored Procedures to Oracle Procedures

    We are having an ERP Package which runs on SQL Server 7.0. For the Reports and Transaction windows, we are using the stored procedures extensively.Now , we want to convert it to Oracle Procedures.Where can i find the resource for this subject.
    Please mail me to [email protected]
    Regards,
    Buhari

    Oracle provides a tool, called the Migration Workbench, that can do an automated conversion. In the newest release of SQL Developer, Oracle's PL/SQL development GUI, the Migration Workbench is built in.
    Be aware, though, that there are limits to what an automated tool is capable of doing. In all probability, you'll want to manually adjust at least a handful of the procedures after any automated tool converts them in order to make things more efficient or to adjust logic that may depend on database-specific behavior. If you have code, for example, that assumes that writers block readers, that code will no longer block in Oracle, which might require re-assessing your algorithm. In addition, there are numerous approaches to developing procedures that are very common in SQL Server (the use of temp tables, for example), that while possible in Oracle generally aren't the most efficient approach.

  • Home Sync never completes on a logout from OSX Server

    I have a Mac Pro running 10.6.4 and MacBook running same rev level. Seemed to have successfully configured Open Directory on the Mac Pro to manage mobile accounts. Mac Pro OD also is configured with AFP file sharing turned "on" and /Network share for storing portable home folders for the mobile accounts.
    When logging into a managed mobile account on the MacBook, Home Sync fires up fine and completes its work. Created a file and saved it. Log out and Home Sync places file back into the Mac Pro repository for the Home Folders (under /Network). All seems well, until....
    I decide to do some work on the MacPro with the managed mobile account. The login completes fine. I work with the file I originally created while on the MacBook. The problem occurs when I logout from this session. A message pops up indicating, and I paraphrase, that a Sync would not be necessary if I were to use /Network location. I click ok and the system proceeds to perform a Home Sync that then runs forever (ok all night or 8 hours after which time I click cancel).
    Any ideas on resolving this problem? Thanks!

    Please disregard my earlier post. I found what my problem is. I had the incorrect IP address setup on my client (long story).

  • How can local user send message to other user via OSX server in mac maverick

    I just install OS X server in mac mavericks and enable services such as message, DNS, VPN, etc. I also create local users and local network users. I add some local users from OSX server to Message app in order to message to server, but I cannot send any message to those user, even Bonjour is available but I cannot use it to send message in local network.
    I already followed all Server Help in Messages like in this image:
    I try to access to my local OS X server via IP address by using other PC, Mac and iPhone and I can get this interface:
    I already try in iPhone to send message to local user in OS X server after accessing to OS X server via IP Address, but I don't know how local user can get that message and I see nothing in message_archives of message data of server. Therefore, how each user in OSX server can message to each other across OSX server ? Does Admin have to write some codes or make configuration for providing message services to those users ?

    Client users need to use XMPP client app to log in to server with account name like in server , then user can send message to other users in server. Client users can use iphone, pc, or mac.
