Why can't I authenticate as Directory Admin using WGM or DSCL?

Sigh... I'm locked out of my directory for some reason!
I don't know why this suddenly started happening when all I was doing was adjusting NFS mounts...
looks like the SID of the guest computer and my server are the same??!!

I have the same issues with the equipment I maintain. Two things are consistent that I see between this forum and my set up. I had 10.5 on all our Macs and each of them could connect with out issue to the shares on a windows xp machine. I have three Mac computers I am working with. 1. My main computer a MacBook Pro 2.4ghz core 2 duo, an Intel iMac, and an older Mac Pro G5 running OS 10.5 server.
I have another server running kiosk or signage displays that is a windows xp machine. All of my macs could access the windows xp machine by clicking on it and authenticating to it and then the shares will show up.
I upgraded my MacBook Pro first to 10.6 and have been unable to connect to the windows shares ever since. Keep getting Authenticatoin failure. So my work around is to transfer files to the 10.5 macs and then screen share one of them and access the windows share from them. Spoke with Apple support and they could not help and said it was a know issue but did not have a solution.
Last week I upgraded the iMac to 10.6 and it too, now will not authenticate to the windows shares.
Here are the strange things... I can take my macbook pro home and access all windows shares on my home networked computers. I even took the windows xp machine home from work to test it and I was able to connect to the shares without issue from my Macbook pro.
Two things stand out ... you mentioned a Cisco router and we use a Cisco router at work. Also, both of us have upgraded to 10.6 and authentication fails at that time.
Problem is between OS 10.6 and the Cisco routers I believe. I am not sure how to fix the issue though.

    I have my personal music (not purchased from Itunes) stored in two locations, on my PC and on an external HD. How can I find out which directory itunes uses to access this music? I am using Itunes version 11.4.0.18. Thanks

    Many thanks JEM24 for your help.  Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone  the actual cost of each additional  gigabyte of storage  to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.

    why can I not make a secure connection using safari?

    I have the exact same problem.  I just updated to 4.3.3 and now my inline controls on my earphones don't work.  The earphones work, but the controls don't.  It doesn't even recognize that there is a mic attached.  Even with the earphones in it still uses the built in mic. Why did my controls stop working?!

    Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser. I can download pdfs using firefox.

    Gilad D,
    Thanks for the support.
    I would guess the plugin is enabled since when I use Foxfire as my browser, all pdfs download and are readable. (just doesn’t happen when I use IE as my browser, I get a blank screen with a small “x” in the upper left corner)
    I will try your proposed solution.

  • Why can't I print from my iPad using airport express

    Why can't I print from my iPad using airport express?

    Is the printer connected to the USB port on the AirPort Express?
    If yes, Apple does not support printing from the iPad in this manner. Try another App like Printopia which should allow the iPad to print. There is a free trial, so you will know in a few minutes whether this will work.
    Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    Is the printer connected to the AirPort Express using wireless only?
    If yes, you must have an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from the iPad. See if your model is AirPrint compatible in this Apple document:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If your printer model appears, the printer may need a firmware update to enable the AirPrint feature. Contact the support folks at your printer manufacturer.
    If the printer does not appear, try Printopia as above.

  • Why can't I send i-message and use facetime with my iphone 4s(BTW, there is nothing wrong with my apple account))

    Why can't I send i-message and use facetime with my iphone 4s(BTW, there is nothing wrong with my apple account))
    It functioned well originally, but a month ago I could not use facetime and send i-message anymore. I think there is nothing wrong with my apple ID because I can still download apps in apple store.

    Try turning both iMessages and Facetime off in SETTINGS then re-enable iMessages and then Facetime. See if that helps.

  • TS3276 Why can i suddenly not send out mail using mail through my ntlworld account

    Why can I suddenly not send out mail using Apples Mail. My mail server is Ntlworld. I can send mail by going to Safari and loging into my mail account, but i would prefer to continue using Apples mail and my address book. Does anyone know what my problem could be.

  • Why can't I sign into any website using Safari on my iPhone?

    No matter the website, it will not recognize my password into the site. I don't understand. I can't sign into my school site, check my bank account, sign into paypal. Why won't it let me? I've double, triple, quadruple checked my passwords and they're all correct because I sign on my Macbook with them, but why can't I sign in on my phone? I even downloaded Chrome and they alll worked on Chrome on my phone. But I don't want to use Chrome Help me please?

    I already looked at that discussion but cookies are enabled, and I never use private browsing. When I try to sign in it says that the login failed. It doesn't matter what website I'm on (except apple for some reason I can sign in on apple.com) it doesn't recognize my password. I've typed in everything correctly a dozen times. But Safari had saved my passwords before this started happening so the reason I know the passwords are correct is because I saved them on safari and would just go to the website sign in and my password was saved so id log in and it would work. But now it doesn't. And I don't know why. It works on my computer so I know the passwords are right. But why can't the websites on safari on my iphone recognize my passwords?

  • How can i determine if a directory exist using plsql

    Edited by: kama021 on Jun 24, 2009 3:26 AM

    What OS? The trick is to use a known special file that always exists in every folder. On Windows an example of this is NUL. It's the equivalent of /dev/null but exists in every directory automagically. That means you can do this:
    SQL> create directory temp as 'C:\TEMP';
    Directory created.
    SQL> select dbms_lob.fileexists(bfilename('TEMP', 'NUL')) from dual;
    DBMS_LOB.FILEEXISTS(BFILENAME('TEMP','NUL'))
                                               1
    1 row selected.
    SQL> create directory test as 'C:\NOTREAL';
    Directory created.
    SQL> select dbms_lob.fileexists(bfilename('TEST', 'NUL')) from dual;
    DBMS_LOB.FILEEXISTS(BFILENAME('TEST','NUL'))
                                               0
    1 row selected.

  • Can RH8 be installed by the admin using his own account?

    Please excuse this basic yes/no question, I could not find any info about RH8. In older releases it was once recommended to install RoboHelp using the account of the USER who would later use the program (not the admin). For this, admin rights had to be assigned to the user during installation and removed again afterwards.
    Is this procedure still required for RH8 or can RoboHelp now be installed by the admin using his own account?

    The options are the user account with admin rights attached or the admin account that will have those rights by default.

  • HT201322 Why can't I hide purchases in devices using iOS 6?

    I have just purchased an iPad for my brother to use whilst in hospital.  Unfortunately I don’t have enough money to buy him his own.  Want him to be able to use some of the apps and purchased movies, but not all of them.  Why can't I hide old and crappy apps on iOS 6 on the ipad, but can on my old crappy windows computer in iTunes?? 

    As it says on the page that you posted from it's not currently possible to do it on iOS 6 - as to why not I, I don't think that Apple have said, nor whether it's only temporary.
    If I hide an app via my computer's iTunes and close the App Store app on my iPad via the taskbar, then when I re-open the app it's also been hidden from its Purchased tab.

  • Why can't  see the configArchive  directory in domain ?

    hi,everyone,
    I have constructed some wls domain such domain-a,domain-b,domain-c using the same configure wizard of wls8.1sp2,and
    found one strange thing:
    after running several weeks,within domain-a ,i found domian-a/configArchive directory ,but can't find it in
    domain-b and domain-c ,for all three domains, i have changed the domain config and setup the Administration Server
    archives up to 10 previous versions of config.xml(In the domain Configuration->General tab:Archive Configuration Count
    box,).
    according to WLS8.12 docuement ,when change the domain configuration, the wls server will backup configure.xml to
    domain-name/configArchive directory.
    My question is : why some domain don't create configArchive directory and others can do it automatic ? Need i
    create configArchive directory manually or do other things ?
    thanks a lot.
    Great Lou

    Gopal,thanks a lot.
    I am using weblogic8.1sp2 also. I just changed item "Enable SSL Port" ,and found that configArchive directory
    was created.
    This really made me confusing :My domains are running in product environment for long time,I had changed some
    domain configure to tuning performance ,some change made by directly edit config.xml,others made by weblogic
    console, but I can't see configArchive directory until today.
    Anyway ,now config.xml-backup works normal,Let it be...
    Great Lou

    Lou,
    Thats right. If the changes you do through weblogic console modifies config.xml, then config.xml should automatically be archived in configArchive directory.
    What version of weblogic you are on ? We are using weblogic 81sp2 which works as mentioned in the documentation.

  • Leopard client login problem (Tiger server)... why can't I authenticate?

    I look after a number of Macs and PCs at my company. Most Macs are running the latest version of Tiger but the newest machine came with Leopard. All users log into network accounts on our Xserve, running OSX Server (Tiger). However, the Leopard client machine refuses to log in to any network account, including the one I set up specifically for the machine's user, shaking its login window at me.
    Users connect using Open Directory Master on the server and none of the Tiger clients have ever had problems logging in.
    On the troublesome client machine, I have bound to the server correctly in Directory Utility which declares that the server is responding normally. At the login screen I get a green light and "Network Accounts Available" when I click through the options above the user name field so I know the machine can see the server.
    I can successfully log in to a local account and subsequently mount the server volumes using the new name and password I've set up for the user.
    What have I missed?
    So far, in my attempts to resolve this I have done the following:
    Removed the password from the new account;
    Unbound from the server, changed the short name of the computer, re-bound to the server;
    Tried logging in to other accounts known to be working;
    In WGM checked that the NFSHomeDirectory entry shows the complete path for the user's home directory;
    Trawled through endless forums for clues.
    Kerberos is not running. Does it need to be for authenticating Leopard users?
    Is there an issue with clear text passwords in Leopard? Seemingly eliminated through a no-password test account.
    I'm sure that I logged in successfully once after setting up the machine but, after installing Leopard updates, logging in has consistently failed.
    Anyone else having similar problems? Better yet, anyone have any answers?

    No need to apologize. I learned the same way you are...
    I think you may end up re-binding the 10.4 clients if you kerberize the server.
    You may want to go to the server forum for folks with more definitive annswers.
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=96
    In any case, make sure you have a reliable backup before you do anything.
