Windows 2000, OS 10.4, Network

Hi, I have an eMac 1.25 Ghz running 10.4 and a Dell C600 laptop running Windows 2000. I have a wireless network with a hard drive hooked up to the eMac that I can access on the network through the eMac. I have my iTunes library on the external hard drive that is used for the iTunes on the eMac. Since the older C600 laptop has very little hard drive space, like 6GB, I want to tell iTunes on the Windows to go to the library that is in the external hard drive. The hard drive is completely formatted for mac, so when I open it in windows I see the mac's hidden files, etc. I have tried going into iTunes on the windows and telling it to look in the hard drive, but I can't get to the network through the browsing it gives me. Is this even possible, do I need to reformat the hard drive half and half, windows half, mac half? Thanks for the help in advance.

No one?

Window 2000 & RMI client losing network connection

We have a client/server java application communicating via RMI. The application runs perfect when the network is running smoothly. However, once the client loses connectivity with the network, the client runs in offline mode (as expected). However, once the client reestablishes a connection with the network, it is unable to communicate with the Server via RMI. It seems that Windows 2000 reassigns the client's IP address when it goes offline to localhost (127.0.0.1), when the client is reconnected the IP addresses is changed back to the network address, but it is unable to send data to the server running RMI. Any suggestions? We did not experience this problem with Windows NT.

you need to specify the IP address of the server object from the JVM in which it is exported, using -Djava.rmi.server.hostname argument to the JVM (since the client and server run on one machine, you probably want to set this to 127.0.0.1, I think)

OAS 4.0.8.2a Standalone installation on windows 2000

What should i use for DOMAIN NAME field during installation of OAS 4.0.8.2 on Windows 2000 without connecting to network or internet .
i installed oracle 8.1.6 and OAS 4.0.8.2a on my laptop (OS - windows 2000 ). Installation was successful but i cannot access oas mgr home page. What should i give during installation process host/domain name information dialog box ? I gave my machine name for host name and for domain name when i left it blank installation cannot proceed further and asked me to enter domain name. Because i am using it as a standalone i just gave a name and installation was successful and now i cannot access my
oas mgr page.

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.I was out of town!!
We am using OAS 4.0.8.1 on Windows 2000 Server.Although it is not Windows 2000 Certified, I thought, it might run, because Windows 2000 is Win NT extension.
The Oracle 8.1.5 DB , which is Certified for Windows NT, is running properly on our Windows 2000 installation
As regards RAM, we are running OAS on a ~320 (64 + 256)MB RAM system!
Also, noticed, when I run the client, I get InsufficientResourceException,along with the wkrsf going down in the OAS
Any help on this would be appreciated!!
TIA,
Sandeep
PS : Please let me know, if the following configuration might solve the problem :
Windows 2000 Server
OAS 4.0.8.2
Oracle (8.1.5) DB
Thanks,

How do I connect a Windows 2000 PC desktop to my home network (laptop mac)

Hi,
Sorry to be such a novice. I have created a wireless network with an airport express. My Macintosh laptop can connect to it without a problem and can access the internet. Next step is I want to connect my desktop PC (running Windows 2000) so that it can also connect to the internet using the wireless connection.
Do I need special equipment so the desktop can find the airport express network? How do I set it up on the PC?
Also - does anyone know the easiest way to connect a TIVO to the home network as well?
Thanks for any guidance!
-Lori

Your PC needs to have the ability to join a 802.11b/g compatible network. If it doesn't have that hardware ability, you will need to add a wireless card or wireless adapter.

ITunes 7 won't install on windows 2000 (network error) but iTunes 6 works

Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. I have been trying for almost a week to download the "Idol gives back" videos but I'm not able to with iTunes 6. Says I have to upgrade...sounds easy enough, so I download Itunes 7. I already have the latest quicktime installed and it works fine. The setup for iTunes 7, however, will not work. I get this exact message:
Could not access network location iTunes\.
I read in another forum that editing some registry keys would help but that didn't work. What does this error mean? And why won't iTunes 7 work with Windows 2000 whenever iTunes 6 works perfectly? This is very frustrating, all I want to do is download the Idol gives back videos to help out the children's charities. I never thought they would make it so difficult. I know I can't be the only one with iTunes 7 issues. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

that's normal. a number of the error messages that displayed with a number in 6.0.x and earlier versions of iTunes (like the 1606, the 1316 and certain species of the 1402) no longer get the number showing up with the error message with the 7.x installers. (it seems to have been part and parcel of the change away from basing the installers on InstallShield technology.)
okay, let's try the general advice from the following document to see if that can help:

Windows 2000 laptop can connect to unsecured Apple network, but not w/WEP

I have a PC laptop running Windows 2000 with a Linksys WPC54GS wireless network adapter. I am running two Apple Expresses as one network. This is a healthy network and most everything I need to do works.
However, I can't connect to this network unless I turn off security entirely. Well, to be exact, I know it doesn't work (yet) with 128-bit WEP, and I haven't tried the 40-bit WEP (and don't especially want to). I tried switching to a 13-character password and getting the hex equivalent of it for use as the password on the laptop, but still no joy. The Linksys application on the PC lets you generate 4 different keys from a text password. I tried that too and tried all 4 different keys, and that doesn't work either.
Any ideas?

One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

Only Windows XP has native support for wireless networking.
Other versions of Windows do not have native support for wireless networking.
What this means is that, unlike Windows XP, you can not plug in a wireless adapter and expect Windows to recognise it and start working.
You will need to install some kind of software configuration utility that came with the adapter. Each manufacturer has their own software so as a result the process of using these utilities to connect a Windows (non-XP) computer to an Airport wireless network will be different and so no generic guide is available.
Having said that you may find the following information on things to watch for useful.

Using jdk1.3 compiler over network on NT SP6 and Windows 2000 is very slow.

We recenlty shifted to jdk1.3 from jdk1.2.2. We compile java files that
are on a mapped network drive. The compiler,source files and the class
files are read from and written to a mapped network drive.
We have noticed that our compilation times have increased 3 times since
we started using jdk1.3. We compile around 4000 files which use to take
4 hours when jdk1.2.2 was used and with jdk1.3 it is taking around 14
hours. This is the case when we compile on Windows 2000 and Windows NT
Service Pack 6 machines. But compiling on Windows NT ServicePack5 it
would get compiled in 5 hours. This is really weird but that is the
workaround we have now that is using a NT Sp5 machine for compilation.
Wondering if anyone else has seen this problem. Please let me know.
Thanks,
VJA.

Well the bottleneck in your build process is always going to be the network regardless of the compiler you use.
Ok, the compiler may be slower but the I/O issues far outweigh the compiler performance.
What affects the build process you have that you can compile on a particular machine but the files must remain on a central server?
There is little difference in copying all the files to a local machine, compiling locally and copying the class files back to the server, and having the compiler read from and write back to a network driver apart from performance. Obviously there may be some issues however very few that cannot be resolved.

WIndows 2000 Workstation and OS 10.4.4 networking

How do I set up networking between my G5 local network and a Windows 2000 Workstation network? I seem to be stopped by the Mac local network being on a different subnet mask than the Windows network. There is an ethernet switch controlling the Windows net (Netgear GS-116) and a GS-108 controlling the Mac network. How do I change the Mac subnet address, if I need to?
Thanks,

Solaris 8 and windows 2000 network

Hi Gururs,
I have two windows 2000 servers and one Solaris 8 Intel server. Windows servers can ping solaris server but Solaris server can't ping windows servers. I have added solaris server in hosts file in windows. Also added win servers in hosts file in solaris and resolv.conf file. But not working. I tried to add the IP address of one window server as default router but got message Unknow host/gateway. Please help and guide how can I network all 3 servers using a hub switch and ethernet cards. Thank you.

the problem is that solaris requires its dns server that its connecting through to issue it a hostname where as with windows machine the have a hostname configured locally. So if you goto in the DNS management console in win2k and make a record for the Solaris box with its IP address & hostname you'll find that should solve your problem

Home network - How can I get Tiger & Windows 2000 to connect?

This has been an ongoing annoyance for some time now.
I cannot get my G4 iMac running the latest updated Tiger to connect to a PC running Win2K (home network) through a basic router and junction box.
Both are connected to the internet (DSL) via a router, then one of those "splitter" or junction boxes (what's the right term for this thing?) -- the connection goes from the DSL outlet on the wall, to the router, then into this junction box, which then connects the iMac and the PC to the net.
No problems with the net connection for both machines.
Way back when I first had a different PC connected to this configuration, I COULD see the PC from the iMac, and vice versa. File sharing worked seamlessly.
Then one day, for no good reason, the Mac could no longer "see" the PC ... but the PC could see the iMac. So I resigned myself to swapping files to and from the PC.
Just recently, I changed internet providers for my DSL, resulting in an entirely new IP address setup for each machine. Both machines now get the net. But now NEITHER machine can see the other.
From the Mac, I have tried:
Clicking on the Network icon in the Finder
Typing various different things into the window that results when I click "GO" then "Connect To Server" -- the IP address of PC, the name of the PC, etc.
Ensuring "Windows file sharing" is engaged in the "Sharing" window of the System Preferences
Ensuring "Appleshare" is on
Ensuring the firewall allows traffic with windows file sharing
From the PC I have tried:
Ensuring the main drive is shared
Installed every network sharing device I could (TCP/IP, etc)
From the "My Network Places" window, tried "adding a new network place" (iMac doesn't show up)
Clicking on the "Computers Near Me" icon (nothing but the PC itself shows up)
Clicking on the "Add Network Place" icon (cannot find the iMac no matter what I type into the window, or when I click "Browse")
Why is this so difficult? Why won't it work now when it did before? Why has the machine-to-machine capability of seeing each other steadily degenerated over time?
I know I can go out and buy "Dave" to possibly get this working ... but I shouldn't have to, Tiger has been touted as the most amazing networking thing yet. And, it worked before.
Is there a way to run a diagnostic on the networking function of Tiger? Could it have possibly been damaged?
Any suggestions?

you could mean a hub or a switch, but how many ports does your router have?

This is not normal your internal ip addresses would remain the same even if when you change your ISP.

It sounds to me your network needs to be troubleshooted before we can answer that.

And, it worked before.
You don't need Dave at all. Samba is the pc filesharing protocol and that is built into Tiger.
Is there a way to run a diagnostic on the networking
function of Tiger? Could it have possibly been
damaged?
Yes there is away to diagnose your problem we can work on that.
Any suggestions?
What is the make and model of your dsl modem?
What is the make and model of your router? What is the make and model of the box your refer to as splitter.
Also goto the network preferces of your mac and post back what your ip address is and what router ip address you have.
On your pc goto the start menu, click run, enter the work 'command' press enter.
In the dos window type
ipconfig
press enter
and post back the results.

Alias connected to Windows 2000 network share

Using a Mac (10.3.9) I can connect to a Windows 2000 share. I then create an Alias of the share so I don't have to go through the login every time. Unfortunately the Alias 'forgets' and asks for the location of the server or gives me the option to delete it.
This doesn't happen to other macs so I guess it must be a preference file or something like that on the Mac.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Paul

I found a work around for this in another thread. Thank you gnaegi.
Below is what was posted...
Open Terminal.app from /Applications/Utilities and then enther the following:
mkdir myshare #(do this only the first time)
mount -t smbfs //[email protected]/sharename myshare
When you work this way you should unmount the share before you log out, shutdown or put the computer to sleep. To do this, open the Termina.app and enter:
umount myshare
The mounted share is now in your home.

Setting the DNS Suffix in Windows-2000:

This is a solution for the frequent problem that arises during installation of iPlanet Application Server on Windows-2000 platform.
Problem: After installation completes, the installation directory remains empty, there is no entry of iAS in "Windows start menu". It doesn't install anything.
Remedy: Set the DNS Suffix.
Procedure:
Right click on My computer (icon on desktop or in windows-explorer), then click on properties, go to Network identification Tab, Click on properties, then click the more button, set the Primary DNS suffix (like india.sun.com), and also check the Change Primary DNS suffix when domain membership change check box, click all Ok buttons.
Note:
1. Make sure that it is added to the windows registry:
Just run regedit and click on the My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM \ControlSet001\Services \Tcpip\Parameters key, you will see the Domain key value set to your domainname, otherwise enter the domain name into this key value, and than reboot the m/c, and than reinstall the iAS. It should work.
2. Make sure you are using static IP address.

Cannot print character mode in windows 2000

Hi,
When I try to execute a character mode report using a network printer the report does not run correctly (prt sheet size, escape sequences etc.).

As you can see, all versions are exactly the same in both machines.
3) A windows 98 machine with a epson fx-880+ printer atached on it. It will be referenced as W98.
When running the report from the WXP machine, directing the output to the W98 Epson FX-880+ it works fine: all escape sequences takes effect, the speed is good and the aligment is ok. But when running the same .rep report from the W2000 machine, directing the output to the same W98 printer, the escape sequences doesn't work and, worst, are printed. As a consequence of this, the aligment is wrong.
All of this was done to try to fix this problem:
1) The latest patch available for reports 6i is patch 15 which you can download from metalink -> patches -> Simple search -> patch number = 3171855. You can apply the latest patch and test (Raghavendra from metalink)
2) Apply the spool raw datatype workaround in Windows 2000, following these steps:
* Click Start , point to Settings , and then click Printers.
* Right-click the printer that you want to use and click Properties.
* On the Advanced tab, click Print Processor.
* Click Raw in the Default data type box.
* Click OK to confirm changes.
* On the Advanced tab, clear the Enable advanced printing features option.
* Click OK to confirm changes.
(From metalink Note:178433.1)
3) Edit the wide.prt file using dos edit instead of notepad, and using CTRL+P + ALT18 to obtain the ESC(18) character (just the same thing that was done in WXP machine) (From OTN Forum)
Does anyone wave any other idea?
Thanks,
Vinicius Pacheco

I'm replying my own question to inform what happens if anyone is facing same situation.
Initially thanks to Bob for your sugestion. It works! But not at first time.
I don't have administrator permission at the remote machine (W2000) to change the printer settings. So I made a request to the people who has. They made the changes, but the report still not working. After some tries we saw the reason: all the changes was for their user only. In my user this changes weren't active. So there are some things to check in this situation:
1) If you are not administrator, check if the changes made by another people are in effect in your account;
2) In some way your local printer definitons affects the remote printer (don't ask me why!!!), so check you local printer definition too.
I hope it helps!

WIndows 7 64-bit system printing to a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server

Is there any way to configure a new Windows 7 64-bit computer to use a Windows 2000 server configured as a print server ?
The printer that I would like to connect to is an HP 4240n LaserJet. I appears that there is only a 64-bit Universal Print Driver available. The server currently uses HP 32-bit PCL5e or PCL6 drivers for all other connected computers. Connection is through a Hewlett-Packard Network Port, using DLC/LLC transport for the embedded 4240n print server.
Installing the HP 64-bit UPD to the WIndows 7 64-bit system, and then attempting to redirect the local port to the Win2k network print server has not worked.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi:
See if this works...
Run msconfig.
In the System Configuration screen, Boot tab, Advanced Options, if there is a check mark in the box next to Maximum memory. Remove that checkmark and save your changes.
Reboot and hopefully Windows recognises all the Ram ( minus the reserved ) after restarting.
Please give that a try, and post back and let us know if that frees up some system memory for you.
