Wide-Area Bonjour error in the logs

I took a look at the logs, and noticed the following line repeated MANY times:
Apr 11 11:59:53 Severity:3 Wide-Area Bonjour error for "TC.mymobilemename.members.mac.com." (-65537).
futher down, I see this:
Apr 11 12:00:01 Severity:3 Wide-Area Bonjour error for "Wireless\032Capsule.smb.tcp.mymobilemename.members.mac.com." (-65537).
Apr 11 12:00:01 Severity:3 Wide-Area Bonjour error for "Wireless\032Capsule.adisk.tcp.mymobilemename.members.mac.com." (-65537).
Apr 11 12:00:01 Severity:3 Wide-Area Bonjour error for "Wireless\032Capsule.afpovertcp.tcp.mymobilemename.members.mac.com." (-65537).
I removed my real mobile me name and replaced it with mymobilemename.
What is this error? Yes, I have entered my Mobile Me credentials into the Time Capsule, and obviously this is related to that.
I can't ever seem to hit my TC when I am outside my home network, so clearly it's related.
I am running the latest updates of the Airport Utility and the latest firmware on the device.
How to do fix this?
thanks.

I have same error and don't know what to do.
Thanks

Wide Area Bonjour and making it *NOT* use a NAT

Does anyone know if there's a way to stop Wide Area Bonjour from using the NAT gateway when it detects it's on a private network? This seems to be the default behavior and I wondered if it was possible to disable it.

Well for what it's worth, I moved my network onto 192.0.2.X which is a section of IP addresses reserved for testing - so while not strictly private (though they never appear on the Internet) it means that Bonjour doesnt try to use the NAT.
Can we say hack?

VPN + DNS-Enabler + Wide Area Bonjour = no success

Hi,
what I am trying to do is broadcast the bonjour services of my home network such as file sharing, iTunes home-sharing and the like through my VPN connection. Since I am not too savvy with networking related topics I bought "DNS Enabler Snow" since it advertises to provide wide area bonjour with a minimum of setup hassle.
Now I am only getting so far that I can see my machine at home through VPN under "Network" in OS X. But I cannot connect. It always says "Connection Failed". Neither can I see my home iTunes library.
In the "Domains" section of DNS Enabler I entered:
Domain Name: <my DynDNS Domain>
Primary DNS Server: <my DynDNS Domain>
Host Name: <my DynDNS Domain>
IP address: <the local IP address of the machine running DNS Enabler>
In the bonjour section of DNS Enabler I entered:
Service Type: afpovertcp.tcp
Service Name: File Sharing
Host: <my DynDNS Domain>
Port: 584
TXT: path=/
Can anyone hint me at what might be wrong with this configuration?
Thank you!
Florian

I think the problem with the current setup is the use of the DynDNS hostname for the AFP service's hostname. When you're connected via the VPN you are effectively on the same network and so connection's attempted to the external-IP recorded by the DynDNS hostname will fail as it's not possible to loop back (for want of a better description) through the router. If you add a new A-record to the zone that points to the machines internal IP address and then change the service to point to the new record it should work via the VPN.
iTunes sharing won't work via this method as iTunes will only register and browse for services in the ".local" domain. The ".local" domain (a top-level domain like ".com") is only available via multicast-DNS. Multicast traffic as a general rule is not carried over a VPN (or the internet for that matter) as due to it's broadcast nature it can quickly clog up and cripple a network.
Hamachi unlike most VPN solutions presents itself as a virtual network interface that can carry multicast traffic which is why iTunes sharing works over a Hamachi connection. A cursory Google search tells me that multicast traffic can be carried over a OpenVPN connection with some additional configuration - your mileage might vary though.
Wide-Area Bonjour works by adding an additional domain to the system that software can then use for registering and browsing services. Unlike regular Bonjour, Wide-Area Bonjour works over the internet as it's based on traditional unicast DNS with a few extensions for updating records in realtime and NAT-PMP or uPNP (one or the other is in pretty much every router) for automatically setting up port-forwarding. If NAT-PMP or uPNP is not available, services can still be browsed but can not be registered (only services that can accessed via the internet are advertised); it's for this reason that Wide-Area Bonjour won't work properly in concert with a VPN. Whilst most OS X software is written to just register and browse in whatever domains are available there are some like iTunes that only register in the ".local" domain.
You can find out more detailed information about these topics at http://multicastdns.org/ and http://dns-sd.org/. I'm happy to answer any further questions you might have either here or via email. If my Wide-Area Bonjour service sounds like a good fit for you, please drop me a note and I'll let you know when I open-up the service to new users again (slated for mid-March).

CUPS queues don't work with Wide Area Bonjour

I'm completely flummoxed!
My school board is installing new switches in all our schools, and moving from a single flat VLAN to multiple - one for printers, one for server, one for client workstations. Printing queues advertised with Bonjour worked fine on the old network, but multiple VLANs breaks all that since Bonjour is in the unrouteable multicast range (which makes sense, since it's not meant to work outside of the local network). I have old Tiger servers at the schools, running on hardware that doesn't do VLANs (old G4 towers), so advertising queues with Bonjour using the school server can't get me by.
I've set up BIND (DNS) to show my CUPS IPP print queues from a central Lion workstation (elemprtsrv01.example.com) in the school's subnet (10.159.40.0/22; academic-wrd.scd.example.com) as follows (my domain substituted with example.com for anonymity) - the relevant section snipped from the rest of the zone file:
$ORIGIN academic-wrd.scd.example.com.

If I use Bonjour Browser on the print server network and on the school's academic-wrd.scd.example.com subnet, I see identical info to that provided by my DNS records - in other words, Wide Area Bonjour (WAB) appears to be working and providing the necessary details.
When I try to add a printer on a school workstation, the WAB printer appears...though the PPD ("(EXAMPLE-22STUD-XeroxWC5775)" should match SCD234Q.ppd from the server queue) doesn't get imported from the server and I get a Generic Printer Description instead. When I try to print on the client, I see promising notes about connecting to the print server, but then it always pauses the queue. Here's the relevant section from /etc/cups/ppd/SCD234Q.ppd:
*Manufacturer: "Xerox"
*ModelName: "Xerox WorkCentre 5775"
*ShortNickName: "Xerox WorkCentre 5775"

*Product: "(EXAMPLE-22STUD-XeroxWC5775)"

In the CUPS error log, I get this annoying encryption error, which no else appears to have had, according to the usual search engines:

OK, so here's the annoying bit: if I manually configure the queue on a Snow Leopard (or higher) client by going into System Preferences, adding an IP printer with IPP protocol (elemprtsrv01.example.com, queue name /printers/SCD234Q) then it works. With Leopard or Tiger, the PPD doesn't load from the server, and the generic PPD is substituted automatically.
If I manually add "ServerName elemprtsrv01.example.com" to /etc/cups/client.conf on the client machine, then it shows all the server queues and magically works too - even on Leopard and Tiger.
The problem is that I DON'T want to have all the server queues appearing on every workstation, since it'll cause mahem when the students discover all the queues and print to other schools for kicks. WAB was supposed to solve that for me by advertising only the queues that were meant to be accessed by that subnet (they'd all be there on the server, but only a real techie would know how to access them, since they weren't advertised).
Why don't the WAB queues work? Why do I get an encryption error with them?
How do I get the server's PPD to download automatically to the client? (this is especially useful for printers with customized PPDs set up with the proper settings for that printer...and for the Xerox copiers that are using accounting codes present in the server's PPD)
Any help would be very much appreciated!

Figured it out...stick with Lion (Client or Server) and use the web interface to add printers and customize the /etc/cups.conf file. If you use either System Preferences or the Print config in Server Admin on earlier versions of Mac OS X Server, you'll bugger up your cups.conf file (top part of which is reproduced here):
ServerAlias *

The key is to allow anything as a server name (ServerAlias *) and Allow All for / and /printers (though / by itself should be enough). If you want to listen for LPR (port 515) then I think it needs to be listed in BrowseLocalProtocols - it's not a valid option for BrowseRemoteProtocols.
On the Wide Area Bonjour front, I created TWO different entries for each printer in my domain, because otherwise the queues would appear and instantly disappear in the Tiger browser - Tiger only shows the LPR queue. The queue name is preceded by "printers/" in the IPP queue, but not with the LPR queue. Here's an example from the top of my BIND student zone file:

Note that the second queue is commented-out in the student zone file because it's the office queue and I didn't want it to appear in student workstation queue browsers. I customized the PPDs for these printers and thus changed the "product=" part of the TXT record to match the name in the altered PPD's "*PRODUCT:" line so that it wouldn't match with an already-installed PPD.
The above zone file generates two different queues (IPP and LPR) for each printer on Leopard and higher queue browsers, but only one queue (LPR) on Tiger. We're still supporting Tiger and even the odd Mac OS 9 client (no browsing, but they can do a manual LPR queue). Windows does both or you can manually add the IPP queue (add a new network printer using the URL "http://elemprtsrv01.example.com:631/printers/SCD234Q" and make sure you're using the PostScript driver for the printer, or you'll get garbage). iOS devices browse for _universal._sub._ipp._tcp records and you need to add the URF= field in the TXT record or the queue won't show up...and add a file /usr/share/cups/mime/airprint.types with the single line "image/urf urf (0,UNIRAST<00>)".
All my users from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X to Windows can now print using a central print server that magically shows up in the print browser...yay!

How to use wide-area Bonjour?

My understanding of Wide-Area Bonjour is that I can access Bonjour services while outside the local network. So for example while at the office I would think I could access the iPhoto library of a computer at home, at least that's what it seems to me.
Am I right? If so, how is this used? I can find no instructions.

I'm interested in this as well; documentation is minimal. Please post back here if you learn anything...
I was hoping to see support for DynDNS or similar, but no...

Leopard Wide-Area Bonjour DNS Issue

Hi, all. Got an issue with Leopard's domain name resolver. A while back, I was experimenting with the "use dynamic global hostname" panel in Sharing. I wasn't able to get it to do anything useful (and I don't want help with that; I know what went wrong, and how to fix it, but haven't gotten to do so yet), but here's the thing - after returning the settings to the defaults (unchecking the "use dynamic global hostname" box), it seems to have left something behind in my system configuration.
In particular, when I run "scutil --dns", I see the following two entries in addition to my normal DNS server and the "local" Bonjour resolver (domain names censored):
resolver #3
domain : bonjour.mydomain.com.
options : pdns
timeout : 5
order : 150000
resolver #4
domain : mydomain.com.
options : pdns
timeout : 5
order : 150200
The type of these is "pdns" - "private DNS", or wide-area Bonjour. They look harmless - but the fact that they're there is somehow preventing my machine from being able to resolve any hostname in "mydomain.com" that is a CNAME.
I can get rid of them temporarily by running scutil and removing the key "State:/Network/PrivateDNS" from the database... and then name resolution works normally again. But a reboot, or a change in Bonjour settings (such as enabling or disabling "Back to My Mac"), causes them to come back. I can't figure out how to purge them from the actual system configuration database. Any suggestions?

Here's the fix. Open Keychain Utility in the Utilities folder and choose "System" in the Keychains list in the sidebar. Now you'll probably see two entries of type "DNS Key" with the names "bonjour.mydomain.com" and "mydomain.com". Just delete those Keychain items and you should be back to normal.

Wide area bonjour for mac

I know this is not an exclusive forum for "bonjour for macbook" but I could not find any category explicitly catering issues with this so I thought this could be the place to ask my query.
So here is my problem.
To enable wide area bonjour on my laptops I have configured my own local dns sever by following details on this document http://www.dns-sd.org/ServerSetup.html and then configured my clients i.e. laptops by following http://www.dns-sd.org/ClientSetup.html page.

I'm trying to do the same thing and found a couple helpful threads and links.
http://blog.inig-services.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/WAB.pdf
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5959986
Unfortunately, following the above PDF guide, one key step fails. After enabling bonjour registrations using the serveradmin settings command and restarting DNS, I can see that the dnsextd proxy fails to start:
dnsextd starting
main: setrlimit - Invalid argument
Using default file descriptor resource limit
startedvialaunchd
ConnectToServer: connect - Socket is not connected
ConnectToServer: retrying connection
I verified via netstat -na that BIND is listening on 5030 and I can use nslookup to run queries against it. There appears to be no good reason why dnsextd can't connect to it @ 127.0.0.1#5030 as far as I can tell.
Is this feature broken in the latest Snow Leopard Server 10.6 release?

Wide-Area Bonjour / Dynamic Global Hostname

Hello everyone
I have a very specific problem, My AEBS is not sending UPDATE requests to my own DNS server when my DSL IP address changes over time.
I have my own DNS server and run a dynamic zone with TSIG aututhentication.
If I configure the "Dynamic global hostname" on my Macs behind my AEBS acting as a NAT gateway, they will register themselves withe the correctly natted address.
In fact, this is amazing and works very well:
sftp-ssh.tcp.dyn.secret.domain domain name pointer MacPro.sftp-ssh.tcp.dyn.secret.domain.
smb.tcp.dyn.secret.domain domain name pointer MacPro.smb.tcp.dyn.secret.domain.
ssh.tcp.dyn.secret.domain domain name pointer MacPro.ssh.tcp.dyn.secret.domain.
macpro.dyn.secret.domain has address xx.yy.169.96
But my AEBS itelf has an older address:
airport.tcp.dyn.secret.domain domain name pointer Airport.airport.tcp.dyn.secret.domain.
smb.tcp.dyn.secret.domain domain name pointer Airport.smb.tcp.dyn.secret.domain.
airport.dyn.secret.domain has address xx.yy.177.175
I can force the update by restarting my AEBS, but this is not a good workaround.
Has anyone else experience running a wide-area bonjour DNS server?
Thanks

Hi Patrick,
I suggest you bring this up on the bonjour-dev[1] mailing list. You're much more likely to reach people with the right knowledge there.

Wide area bonjour - windows dns

In most examples on the internet BIND is used as the DNS server and all configuration is shown for BIND (except one PDF "www.grouplogic.com/Knowledge/PDFUpload/.../WanBonjour_1.pdf" which has examples for MS dns but it doesnt work).
So I have managed to configure the MS dns server as far as advertising available services but when I try to resolve a service it fails. I think its a problem with the srv record but have tried so many different configurations for this record I have lost count. config below.
Has any one set this up? could really do with a good example of it working on windows dns.

thanks for the quick reply AndrewTJ - I did notice the typo after posting and corrected however the problems remains. below is the contents of my up.com.dns file - i can see nothing out of place but cannot get a resolution
; Database file up.com.dns for up.com zone.
;      Zone version: 22

                         600          ; retry
                         86400        ; expire
                         3600       ) ; default TTL

Any ideas?

How to setup Wide Area Bonjour across multiple Subnets?

Hi Gents,
It's been painful trying to get this up and i feel i am almost there, but can seem to complete the last bit
I have this network i am helping to manage
OS X Lion Server running
     DNS
     RADIUS
     Open Directory
So the wifi network is in a seperate subsnet from the LAN on which the Mac Server is connected to which posses the problem of Bonjour not routed between the two subnets. So i decided to enable Wide-Area bonjour browsing and create a Service record for afp share folders. So i have got to the point where it's coming up on devices on the seperate subnet under the network icon, however when i try to connect to the service it just says connection failed. Authentication is occuring because if i use wrong credentials it doesn't attempt to connect.
I believe it might be the way i am defining TXT. I have little experience here, any assistance would be appreciated
This is the configruation in DNS Settings on Server Admin
Service Name: Work\03****\03\you
Service Type: _afpovertcp._tcp.
Host: work.damnyou.org.
Port: 548
Priority: 1
Weigth: 0
TXT: "path=PUBLIC/"
Anytime i attempt to connect, it just says Connection Failed
Thanks,
DeeBeeMac

DeeBeeMac,
Did you get things working good for you? I also have a wired VLAN and a WiFi VLAN that I have a implementation with Aruba network for my WiFi, they have an option called airgroup and printers seem to come and go.   I really don't want to use the Aerohive solution, so I was thinking of a Mac mini with an interface on both VLANS.   Do you need to setup anything to get os x to announce services it see's on both networks?   I also tried avahi and turned on reflector, however it seems spotty as well.

Wide - Area Bonjour / Back to my Mac: Simple Setup Discussion | Tutorial

Looking to start a new thread for SIMPLE setup of wide-area bonjour / Back to my Mac setup across multiple geo locations
Objectives
1. develop tutorial/instructions for mainstream setup of WAB across multiple greographcal locations
2. Goal is for complete discovery in Leopard Finder of each computer setup across seperate locations
3. Ability to file share/browse file structure of each local and remote computer
4. Ability to use Screen Sharing across geographical locations to control/observe remote computers (alternatively use Apple Remote Desktop app)
5. Appropriate listing of services in Bonjour Browser (local and global)
6. (Wide) Access to airport disk
7. Consistency. Many solution like back to my mac solo sometimes work sometimes does not depending on unidentifiable variables (across reboots with no material change)
Setup
1. Multiple LAN (local area networks) in different geographical locations (LAN1, LAN2, LAN3,...)
2. Dynamic IP setup from ISP in each geographic locations (cable / DSL)
3. Airport Extreme router in each location (perhaps later we can explore UPNP and other routers which complicate setup)
Tools
1. Leopard running on all machines
2. Use of .mac (dot mac) account allowing for "back to my mac", xxxx.members.mac.com setup
3. Bonjour preference Pane, with setup of Hostname, Registration and Browsing panes
http://www.dns-sd.org/ClientSetup.html
4. Bonjour Browser
http://www.tildesoft.com/Programs.html
5. Finder
To show remote and local LAN computers in SHARED in left browsing pane
6. Dyn DNS service line zoneedit or dyndns, if necessary
7. Airport Configuration - Wide area bonjour -> config of Advanced/Bonjour ; Hostname, Domain, Name, Password
Restrictions
1. No Leopard Server
2. no direct configuration of a DNS server. No line edits. Use of third party services (non paying if possible) if necessary but rather avoid detailed editing of server setup and maintenance. The idea is to create a fairly simple setup for individual/family/small business/SOHO across work/family/home environment not IT professional setup

I have been trying on my own to achieve this, and although I am an advanced user I am not a Programmer/Developer. Sadly I have been utterly unsuccessful. It would be so wonderful if the proposed step-by-step guide would come to fruition...

OK, OSX can read that but not write, but...
A few options...
You could format that HDD as Fat32/MS-DOS, but you'd be limited to 4 GB Filesizes.

Since upgrading to Lion, my time machine backups are failing - error message: The backup disk image "/Volumes/Jackie Scanlon's Time Caps/Jacqueline Drabczynska's MacBook.sparsebundle" could not be accessed (error -1). Any ideas?

Since upgrading my Macbook to Lion, the time machine backups are failing - error message: "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Jackie Scanlon's Time Caps/Jacqueline Drabczynska’s MacBook.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1)." I have rebooted the TIme Capsule and it worked OK, but don't want to do that every time. Any suggestions? Thanks

Any new info on this?
I had the exact same problem and went crazy and spent a hecka lot of time trying to deal with my brand new 2TB Time Capsule and almost brand new MacBook Pro. Then I thought I fixed it...and I tried SO MANY things, I don't really know what did it...except taking out any apostrophe's in names of stuff that Apple puts in there...BUT...now it's back.
Grrr...

There are no queries in the log for selected measure group

I configured SSAS 2008 R2 Server to dump every 5th query to olapquerlog table in a new logging database. Data is coming to the log table fine. I have been running it from last two weeks. I have about 175 queries against the cube which i
want to aggregate. When i run the usage based aggregation wizard, ssas never finds any query for all measure group. i see a warning below that, "There are no queries in the log for selected measure group".
Can anyone tell me why?
Aneel Ismaily

ID and Database Name look same when i open code from cube;
<ID>Spend
Analytics DW</ID>
<Name>Spend
Analytics DW</Name>
this is how data looks like in sql table;

Import Fails, No Error in the Logs

I am trying to do a full export and import, including SSO, SEC, CAs and Pages, but not all pages import, only the first few pages actually import.
No error in the log files.
Any guidance as to what I should be looking for to see where it fails?

If you haven't already, try reading over ALL of the Portal Export/Import FAQ located on OTN's PortalCenter at:
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/OTN_CONTENT/MAINPAGE/DEPLOY_PERFORM/EXPORT_IMPORT_FAQ_1120.HTM
In particular, the troubleshooting and error message sections in the above FAQ should help. If not, then let us know.
