Windows 8.1 client reports as "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3 (Tablet Edition)"

Hey there,
I just brought our first Windows 8.1 client into our ConfigMgr 2012-R2 infrastructure and noticed that the Operating System and Name client attribute gets populated with Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3 (Tablet Edition).
My question is, why does it also include "Tablet Edition" ? I must mention that because we do not have a Server 2012-R2 yet, the client is running in my local VMWare Workstation.
I would have expected that the client only reports "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.3" like it did for previous versions. I do not have an issue with adding a % within our queries, but am just interested where the Tablet Edition comes from.
Thanks
Alex

Difference between Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition) and Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1

I am trying to pull a report for all Windows 7 machines. But, i could find 2 attributes in view V_r_system that are operating_system_name_and0 and operatingsystem0 where I can get the OS information. Few machines are showing as "Microsoft Windows NT
Workstation 6.1" on operating_system_name_and0 and few are "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)".
I am so curious to know about "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)", so I just compared those machines with V_GS_Computer_system view to know whether these machines are a normal Laptop or Tablet based laptop. But, those are ALL
NORMAL LAPTOPS ONLY. however, those machines OSes are showing as "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)".
But, the build numbers and OS versions are same as "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1" machines. So,
I could not find any difference between "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1" machines and "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)" machines in terms of models number , OS build number.
Could someone of you please why the operating_system_name_and0 attribute shows as "Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)" for part of the machines.

Thanks for your reply.
How do we check without RDP on those machines? Because, I have around 11,000 machines which are showing as "Microsoft
Windows NT Workstation 6.1 (Tablet Edition)" out of 40,000 machines.
Is there a way to find that touch screen info in SCCM DB or somewhere?

IMac Client Reports "Bluing" Of Windows. Where Do I Begin?

Dear Friends
I have a client who just bought a 24" iMac. I set up his iMac for him by transferring his files from his iMac G5 to the new machine with Apple's Migration Assistant. I then ran approximately 400MB's worth of updates, including the firmware update, which I successfully applied (at least according to the machine after the subsequent reboots).
My client, a very experienced and long-time Mac user with a PhD is business administration, reports:
This new computer is really, really strange. Many things that I
open (iTunes, Entourage for example), will turn baby blue and
show the name of the app in grey. I have to click again to do
anything. Sometimes I'm not fast enough and it turns blue again.
After I sent the previous e-mail, I was trying to delete some
other older e-mail. The background picture kept "flashing"
light and dark. Then when I clicked again on Entourage, it went
light blue. It took two more clicks before I could highlight
the e-mails that I wanted to dump.
However, when editing an image after each change I made, the
image would turn blue and show it's name. During that time I
could do nothing. Sometimes I was fast enough to click the blue
away and do some more with the eraser before it turn blue
again; sometimes it would come back before I could make another
change. (The blue is transparent, so I could still see the
scanned image.)
The same thing occurred in iTunes when I was creating a file to
burn for my daughter. Sometimes I was fast enough to move two
items and sometimes not.
I can't think of where to begin to help my client. Any suggestions are very, very welcome!
24" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I can't offer a solution, but I've seen the situation you're describing. I've had it happen to my 17" core duo iMac several times. It's usually associated with dragging a file between windows. I've wondered if OS X has some kind of gesture recognition built in. I remember reading something about it in an application manual but I don't recall the context.

Microsoft Windows Unquoted Service Path Enumeration.

I seek for your advice in a security issue and how to mitigate this high risk vulnerability.
Microsoft Windows Unquoted Service Path Enumeration.
Microsoft Windows Unquoted Service Path EnumerationMicrosoft Windows Unquoted Service Path Enumeration
Synopsis
The remote Windows host has at least one service installed that uses an unquoted service path.
Description
The remote Windows host has at least one service installed that uses an unquoted service path, which contains at least one whitespace. A local attacker could
gain elevated privileges by inserting an executable file in the path of the affected service.

As long as we are piling on late responses, here is the script one of our talented SCCM engineers wrote to fix affected systems. The first code snippet is used in SCCM 2007 to fix clients. Further down are the detection and remediation scripts
used in SCCM 2012 as part of Desired Configuration Management (DCM).

REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER

I am using a window 7 professional service pack 1 and I purchase REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER. but the seller did not send me any installation CD or instruction
on how to use it.
Please how can I use it on my window 7 professional service pack 1.
Thank you.

Though Bill is absolutely correct for most CALs, Remote Desktop Services does have its own special licensing server. I haven't installed one on 2012, yet, but here is a step-by-step guide for 2008.

Here is a lab guide for 2012 -
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134160.aspx
But, the explanation of your environment begs the question - what are you trying to do? You say you have a desktop OS and you are talking about Windows Server products. In that light, your question does not make a lot of sense.

Hi Mario,
According to your description, when you try to access the Report Manager in another client, a login dialog prompt. After typing a valid username and password 3 times, a blank page displays.
Generally, the issue is always caused by the Report Server is configured to use Kerberos authentication, while the Service Principal Name(SPN) is not configured correctly. To fix this issue, please refer to the following methods:
Register an SPN for the Report Server service under the domain user account.
Change the service account to run under a built-in account such as Network Service.
Remove RSWindowsNegotiate and ensure RSWindowsNTLM is specified in the rsreportserver.config file.
Besides, the issue can also be caused by the Internet Explorer (IE) didn't pass the user's credential to the Report Server automatically or the IE is not Windows Integrated enabled. For more detail steps about how to address this issue, please refer to the
following steps:

Crystal Report 2008 on Windows Server 2008 64bit

The System:
- Windows Server 2008 Standard 64bit SP2
- Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
- Oracle Client 10gR2 64bit

- Crystal Report Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008 (x64)
On a 32bit-system or 32bit-mode (and 32bit Oracle Client) everything is working fine. But I have to use the 64bit Oracle Client, therefore, Crystal Report have to work in 64bit-mode.
Is it possible and what is to do to get it working, thanks,
Martin

It does work on 64 bit OS - as a 32 bit application. CR 2008 is 32 bit only.
See the article [Crystal Reports support of 64 bit Operating Systems|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10d5fa88-2013-2c10-c9a5-f11963607d4e] for more info.

Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use.

I posted in : http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/disconnected-network-drive-error-as-follows-an/9a877c38-5e86-4c34-84c2-427a965577c6?page=2
Error:
"An error occurred while reconnecting drive letter to \\network server\share folder.
Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use.
This connection has not been restored."
1) A workstation is running Windows 7
2) The user has a drive letter mapped to a UNC
3) The connection is interrupted at some point and then restored
4) Upon attempting to access the mapped network drive, the user gets the error about the letter being
already in use.
Extremely disappointed that some of the posts marked as answers were obviously not, shows how poor the moderators here are.
My latest results clearly point to a Windows 7 client problem:
I received the error.
Had run nslookup so had a prompt open.
ran dir z:    worked. went to Windows Explorer, same error.
ran dir z:\sharename    worked. went to Windows Explorer, same error.
copy con z: test.txt then type test.txt; could create and retrieve file. Went and clicked on mapped drive in Windows explorer and received same error.
Obviously(?) not a Server or Networking problem. Ran Malwarebytes from bootable CD (client doesn't believe in AV). Didn't happen with USB flash drive.
Any other ideas?

This is usually because the drive letter assigned to the network share is taken by something else. Maybe, by a removable drive.
Moderators and other answerers do their best to help specific cases, but everyone has their own situation. Apply common sense to the replies you find in the forums.
When you typed dir z: - is Z: the drive letter you wanted for this share, or it was automatically assigned?
-- pa
Alternatively you could try using common sense when you post, as well as taking the time to read the entire issue post so that you can avoid showing both your ignorance and arrogance (arrogance without any competency to back it I might add).
Suggesting that it might be "another drive" that took over the mapping shows your lack of reading comprehension and is unhelpful.   Please take the time to, once again, read first.
Lastly moderators here generally show little technical skill beyond entering search words into a knowledge-base of articles and then applying the results incorrectly further exacerbating the situation for the customer.

VERY URGENT: Certification of Reports 6i for Windows XP

Hello !!!
We have a cust. which is delivering software for small comunities in
Germany. They are handling about 4500 Users and they have 1 Mio. $
licenses in DB and reports.
the problem is: the customer can't upgrade to
reports 9i, because reports is embedded in a client/server application.
They would need some more time to do the upgrade.
Having reports on the web would bring some authentication problems.
The user will authenticate in the client/server application. But the user
shouldn't know the login to the database for the reports.
Portal and SSO Server are no acceptable solutions for the customer,
because this would require an additional oracle database. They are selling
their application to their customer who have databasese like Informix, DB/2
or SQL Server and don't want an additional database. So they can't go this
way. Having a Kay-map File (cgicmd.dat) ist also not acceptable for the
customer, because the username/password would appear there in clear text and
they already decided, that they won't accept this. OS permissions are
no solution, because most of their customers have an insecure Microsoft
Windows environment, even for the server.
So they are in a situation, that they can't upgrade immediately to
Web-Reports and need some more time.
Unfortunately many of their customers
come with XP computers and they would have to say that they have to
downgrade to Windows 2000 or loose this customer.
There have been some rumours about patch 11 for the certification. This
was rejected. Then Patch 12. Anotherone said it willl be Patch 13.
Another rumour stated that development isn't planing this certification anymore.
These statements are only made for Forms6i. Does they apply to reports6i
also ???
We urgently need an official statement for our customers.
If the certification is only in Patch 13 in December we will realize some
million $ looses. This special customer won't accept this very long delay.
Many Thanks ind advance
Rainer

Certification is on its way.

Please let me know any solutions to fix....
Steps, I did try from one of the blogs -
Open Component Services. Got oStart --> Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Components Services. Expand the Component Services branch then expand Computers, My Computer and DCOM Config. Right-click on "sms agent host" (my case) and click
Properties. Click on the Security tab and under “Launch and Activation Permissions” select "edit" and add user Local Service (Local lunch). Click OK, close the Component Services window.
In the Launch Permission dialog box, make sure that the Everyone group has Remote Launch and Remote Activation permissions.
In the Launch Permission dialog box, make sure that the SMS Reporting Users local group has following permissions:
Local Launch / Remote Launch / Local Activation / Remote Activation
Also added Remote Launch / Remote Activation permission for Network Service (for the SMS_Reporting_Point)
Added Admin Group to the "ConfigMgr Remote Control Users"
VT

In addition, In the security policy the ‘Local Service’ need to be configured for the following Policies
- Generate security audits
- Create global objects
- Replace a process level token
- Adjust memory quotas for a process
- Impersonate a client after authentication
- Log on as a service
- Bypass traverse checking
Hope this helps.

Yan Li

Windows 7 SP1 client shows status of "Not Applicable" for every single update

Windows 7 SP1 client
Every update, including all Critical Updates for Windows 7, show a status of "Not Applicable" when running a "Computer Detailed Status Report"
The computer is current in updating its status with the WSUS server.
I am hoping that you can suggest reasons why this would be.
Thanks!
mk

It is only the one computer that has all of its updates listed as 'Not Applicable'
Some of these are the same updates that other computers show as 'Installed'
Any other ideas?
Yep!
Every update, including all Critical Updates for Windows 7, show a status of "Not Applicable" when running a "Computer Detailed Status Report"
The computer is current in updating its status with the WSUS server.
One of those two statements is not true.
