Windows 98 with NW Client 3.4

Dear All,
Most of Windows 98 users reported the NW Client always prompted the
following message.
Client32:Please wait while System retries request to <Server Name>
To stop waiting, press Enter
Netware will then return an error and try to reconnect in the background
After the user press <Enter>, sometimes the map drive can be accessed again,
but sometimes the map drive can't be accessed (although the map drive and
connection still exist - checked the Netware connection from Netware service
icon).
If we try to use Windows Explorer to map a network drive, the Netware Login
dialog will be prompted, after type in the password the message "The tree or
server cannot be found. Choose different tree or server". Finally, the
only way to solve this problem is restart the computer.
we have no this problem occurred in Windows 2000 with NW Client 4.83 or
above in the same LAN.
Moreover, our LAN running both Netware 4.11 (IPX) and Netware 6 (IP/IPX),
client enable both IP and IPX.
Any suggestion to solve this problem?
Thanks.
S. T. Wong

  • Can't open secured documents on windows 7 domain client with mandatory profiles.

    While opening certain PDF files we have the problem that the user is presented with a message that he does not have the rights permissions. This happens twice, after that the users gets an empty page with the message the Adobe version might not be up to date. We use Acrobat Pro 10, but this also happens while using Reader 11.0.8. On our windows 2008 terminal services machine this could be fixed by giving the user rights on c:\ to create and remove a file. :O. On windows 7 this doesn't work probably because of UAC. But we've tried every solution to that available on the internet, disabling uac, changing uac options, changing rights on userprofile folders, changing rights on c:\ but to no avail. When using process explorer we can see it wants to create a temp file p328hkl.tmp or something like that on C but it can't and immediattely after is shows the error on screen.
    Anyone who also has this problem or solved it? There are no problems with simple self made pdf files/scans but only with certain types of pdf files for which it tries to create a tmp file.
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Hi Brogers,
    Thanks for your reaction. We do have AppData redirection in place. We redirect AppData to a share on our data server which works perfectly fine for all other applications. The weird thing is that Reader/Acrobat try to write to C:\ which to my knowledge should not happen, is this maybe a fallback because it can’t write to a different location? Users have full control on their own roaming AppData but not on their local AppData that is made by windows itself while copying the mandatory default profile to C:\.
    I might use the wrong term while saying secured documents. I’m talking about a document created by Raet/Youforce a web application for personal administration. The documents can be opened by other viewers than Acrobat/Reader but then only contain the background and not the text. In Acrobat/Reader they do open normally when Acrobat/Reader can create the .tmp file. Otherwise it will not display the file at all. I would attach such a document to see but since it contains certain info I am not allowed to do so.
    I hope we can work out a solution for this.

  • Automatic Install of Endpoint Protection fails on windows 8.1 clients with SCCM 2012 R2

    Running SCCM 2012 R2 and deploying CM clients and Endpoint Protection via software updates. CM client and EP install fine on Windows 7 clients. CM client installs fine but endpoint protection fails on Windows 8.1 clients with the following from the
    endpoint protection agent log:
    <![LOG[Create Process Command line: "C:\Windows\ccmsetup\SCEPInstall.exe" /s /q /policy "C:\Windows\CCM\EPAMPolicy.xml".]LOG]!><time="12:22:02.560+240" date="08-13-2014" component="EndpointProtectionAgent"
    context="" type="1" thread="4260" file="epagentutil.cpp:607">
    <![LOG[Detail error message is : [EppSetupResult]

    Description=Cannot complete the System Center Endpoint Protection installation. An error has prevented the System Center Endpoint Protection setup wizard from completing successfully. Please restart your computer and try again. Error code:0x80070643. Fatal
    error during installation.
    So on the win8.1 client I run the above command line manually in a command window and receive Access is denied. Then I run the same command in an elevated command window and EP installs fine. Does this have something to do with why the automatic
    EP client install fails with the 0x80070643 error code? If so, what is the fix?

  • Connect SQL Server 2012 from Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0

    Hi,
    I currently have a setup where ETL tool Ab Intio, running on a Linux server, connects to the SQL Server 2005 through a passthrough Wintel server with Windows Server 2003 OS using SQL server native client 9.0
    Now I have the requirement to upgrade the SQL server from 2005 to 2012.
    My question is, will it be possible to connect to SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0?
    As per the specs, I need native client 11.0+ to fully support SQL Server 2012, but then, as per specs, native client 11.0 doesnot run on Windows server 2003. OS upgradation is currently not on the cards.
    So will it be possible to the run the basic queries we use currently, if we can connect SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0/10.0, without updgrading the OS of the Wintel server?
    Thanking you in advance! 

    Hi Soumya,
    Yes, you can use the SQL Server Native Client shipped with SQL Server 2005 to connect to a SQL Server 2012 instance, and there is no need to upgrade the operating system.

  • How configure Windows 8.1 Clients with IE11 for SSO with Kerberos SPNEGO

    We are using BI Publisher OBIEE 11.1.1.7 with SSO Kerberos SPNEGO.
    The Weblogic Server Version is WLS_PRODUCT_VERSION=10.3.5.0
    The SSO is working very well with Clients that are Windows XP or Windows 2003 R2. We had testet wit IE7,IE8 Firefox.
    Now as we become Windows 8.1 Clients with IE11 the Kerberos SPNEGO SSO is not working.
    Please give us advice or a HOW TO Document about the configuration on Windows 8.1 Cllients with IE11 Browser.
    I find many Dokuments related to older Windows Versions for example
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/idm/weblogic-sso-kerberos-1619890.html
    but nothing for Windows 8.1 Clients
    Thanks in advance.

    The location for tabs in IE11 browser might be different but the steps are the same :
    Configure Local Intranet Domains
       1. In Internet Explorer, select Tools > Internet Options.
       2. Select the Security tab.
       3. Select Local intranet and click Sites.
       4. In the Local intranet popup, ensure that the Include all sites that bypass the proxy server and Include all local (intranet) sites not listed in other zones options are checked.
       5. Click Advanced.
       6. In the Local intranet (Advanced) dialog box, add all relative domain names that will be used for Oracle WebLogic Server instances participating in the SSO configuration (for example, myhost.example.com) and click OK.
    Configure Intranet Authentication
       1. Select Tools > Internet Options.
       2. Select the Security tab.
       3. Select Local intranet and click Custom Level... .
       4. In the Security Settings dialog box, scroll to the User Authentication section.
       5. Select Automatic logon only in Intranet zone. This option prevents users from having to re-enter logon credentials, which is a key piece to this solution.
       6. Click OK.
    Verify Proxy Settings
    If you have a proxy server enabled:
       1. Select Tools > Internet Options.
       2. Select the Connections tab and click LAN Settings.
       3. Verify that the proxy server address and port number are correct.
       4. Click Advanced.
       5. In the Proxy Settings dialog box, ensure that all desired domain names are entered in the Exceptions field.
       6. Click OK to close the Proxy Settings dialog box.

  • Easy print not working on a 64 bit Windows 8.1 client with Remote Desktop connection version 8.1

    Easy print is not working on a 64 bit Windows 8.1 client with Remote Desktop connection version 8.1 . Printers dont get redirected when you connect to the terminal server. The server we are connecting to has Windows 2008 server.  On 32 bit Windows
    7 and windows XP clients Easy print is working fine and printers get redirected in terminal server.

    I am having the exact same problem. Windows 7 works fine, but 8.1 will not redirect printers. Others said to check local policy terminal services settings and my setting are all set as they should.
    I think Windows 8.1 is not telling the terminal server what printers it has.

    Does anyone know, how to configure the router and Windows 7, to get a working VPN tunnel?
    Thanks.

    Ok, I could find the time, to try this out. I followed this instruction: https://www.shrew.net/support/Howto_Linksys and it works.
    There is at last one Problem: I can't access computers behind the remote router from the connected client. The client can see the remote router and computers behind the remote router can see the connected client using the IP-adress, I used for shrewsoft.
    I tried to ping some remote PCs from the client, but I get timeout messages. Ping is enabled on all devices. There are no log errors on the router. I tried to add the remote router on the client as a standard gateway, and I decativated the router's firewall, but without success.
    Does anyone know, why the communication just works in one direction?

  • Henging at log in window with new image client OS 10.4.8

    Hello everyone
    I need help to solve this problem.
    I upgraded OS Server 10.3.9 to OS Server 10.4.8. Everything worked well so far.
    Alle client machines with OS 10.3.9 (old image) did not heng at the log in window, but NEW IMAGE with OS client 10.4.8
    I tried to use some accounts (which are already created by the old image) to log in the new image. It just hang at the log in window.
    Why and what should I do now?
    Please don´t tell me to do Server from beginning, because it is over 400 users
    Thank you

    Still having problems?
    Please be more verbose about your setup. What images? What accounts are created by the old image? Where are they created?
    How can accounts living in OS 10.4 Server's LDAP database be created by the (old) image of a OS X Client OS? I'd expect them to be created through Workgroupmanager.app.
    And so on...

  • Custom pushbutton in ME21N should display a popup window with item details

    Hello,,
    The requirement is to
    1. Add a custom pushbutton in ME21N screen at header level.
    2. The user will select some PO line items and will click on this push button.
        This inturn should trigger a popup window with item details only for those selected PO line items along with schedule line qty.
    I have created the custom push button in a custom tab using the BADI ME_GUI_PO_CUST.
    Now I am not able to retrieve item details and schedule line details inside the PAI of the custom tab..
    i.e., when i click on the custom push button, I am not able to retrive the item data and schedule line data.
    Please help me to retrive PO line item data and schedule line data.
    Regards,

    JSF is not so relevant in this question. It's all about how the generated client side code look like. Which is usually a bunch of HTML/CSS/JS (open page in browser, rightclick and view source). If you know HTML, you should know that using target="_blank" in a <form> or <a> element would open a new window. If you know JS, you should know that using window.open() would open a new window.
    Apply this so in the JSF source code so that the generated HTML/JS output is exactly what you want.

  • How to pop-up Outlook Email window with To: blank?

    Hi All,
    I currently have a page which shows multiple rows with checkboxes. I have an After Submit process which loops through the rows and stores some values of the checked rows into a variable to be used as the body of an email. I then call apex_mail.send() to send the email.
    Instead of prepopulating a TO: address within the process and have it send automatically, I would like to have Outlook pop-up the email window with the body prepopulated as mentioned above but with the TO: address box null so that the user can select the address from Outlook's Address Book.
    Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Jason

    1: Yup.. It would look something like this:
    <a href="mailto:?body=aslkdjldfks">Open Email</a>  the # should read:
    "mailto:?body=aslkdjldfks"
    2: If you go this route, there are a few things you need to remember:
    The mailto tag is client side. So you would have to generate the javascript on the server and print it out on the client.
    If your users do not have Outlook, or another mail client, this will do nothing.
    If you have a really long message body it will not work.
    If you have weird characters you will need to encode these.
    So, if you still think that the mailto is what you need then here is some javascript that will auto open it for you:

  • New WSUS on Server 2012 - problem with win8 clients

    Hi,
    Two weeks ago we created a new Server 2012 and installed the WSUS role from scratch on it.  Its version number is:  6.2.9200.16384.  It replaced a Server 2008 WSUS server.  After some time all the win7 clients updated and reported as
    they did on the old and replaced server.
    However all our win8 clients refuse to update against this server.  They show correctly up in WSUS server console each with 107 needed updates day after day.  We have rebooted them and done numerous wuauclt /resetauthorization /detectnow and wuauclt
    /detectnow /reportnow, but to no avail.
    I paste in some lines from a win8 client winupdate log at the end of this message if someone can figure out what I have to do to get these clients update as they did against the old wsus server.  Thanks for help on this issue.
    regards Tor

    Today I opened Control Panel / Windows Updates and first did a check for new updates (from the WSUS server).  Nothing was found and it reported Windows is Updated.   Then I clicked the link Check for updates from Microsoft via internet, and
    it found around 24 updates.
    This is confirmation of the point that I made in the previous post. The updates are *NEEDED* by this system, but the updates were not *AVAILABLE* from the assigned WSUS Server. You were able to get them from Windows Update, but that does not fix your continuing
    issue with the WSUS Server.
    but it still reported the original 108 Needed updates.
    Exactly. As previously noted, the client is functioning perfectly. The problem is NOT with the client; the problem is with the WSUS Server. The updates that this client needed were not AVAILABLE to be downloaded from the WSUS server.
    Why this is the case requires further investigation on your part, but is either because the updates are not properly approved, or the update FILES are not yet downloaded from Microsoft to the WSUS server.
    It appears that the wsus server doesn't get any information back from the client despite that it displays new Last contact and Last Status report timestamps.
    This conclusion is incorrect. The WSUS Server got every bit of information available from the client -- you've confirmed this by the number of updates reported as "Needed" by the Windows Update Agent to the WSUS Server.
    I assumed that the log would display if the updates were downloaded or not.
    It will log when the updates are actually downloaded. If there's no log entries for updates being downloaded, then they're not being downloaded. If the logfile says "Found 0 updates", then that means exactly what it says: It couldn't find any approved/available
    updates to download.
    In your case it "Found 11 updates", but now it will be impossible to diagnose that fault, because you went and got them from Windows Update.
    All Win8 versions are checked in the WSUS server's Product list so the updates should at least have been downloaded to the server.
    This is why understanding the infrastructure is so critical. Your conclusion is invalid based on the premise given, and you may be using improper terminology which only confuses the rest of us as well.
    First, selecting updates for synchronization only gets the update metadata (i.e. the detection logic) downloaded to the WSUS database.
    The Second Step in this process is to Approve those updates for one or more WSUS Target Groups that contain the appropriate client systems. Following the approval of an update, the WSUS Server downloads the INSTALLATION FILE for that update.
    Once the WUAgent sees an approved update and the installation file is available, then the WUAgent will download the file and schedule the update for installation.
    Most of the post I read about my problem is about upgrading a 2008 WSUS server to support Win8 / Server 12 clients.  When I try to run this update on my Server 12 WSUS it refuses to run (probably because it is for Server 2008).
    Yeah.. totally different issue in those posts than what you're describing here.
    What should I do to try to track down the problem?
    Well.... now that it's 11 days since the logfile was posted, and you've already updated that system, we'll first need to find another system exhibiting the same issue.
    Then I'll need to ask a number of questions to properly understand the environment, as well as what you have or have not done.
    Then, from there, we can attempt to figure out why your Windows 8 client apparently sees some updates as approved/available but is still not downloading them. We do not yet have sufficient information to even speculate on a possible cause -- there are several.

  • RDWeb Server 2008 R2 and WIndows 8.1 Clients

    Hi
    I have an issue with RDWeb and Windows 8.1 clients. Works fine with Windows 7 and Windows 8 clients, yet 8.1 is a no go. I can log on to RDWeb, display the available apps for the logged on user, but when trying to connect to an app it never loads. If I click
    'Show Details' on the app, I can see the desktop load but then that is it. Screenshot below is when I try to launch Sage. Sits at the blue desktop screen.
    I have tried compatibility mode in IE to no avail. I found a post on here where a user was having similar issues. I tried her fix, but again, nothing.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your comment.
    I am afraid to say but still there is no any Hotfix for this, but you ca try December 2014 updates might it get it work for you.
    December 2014 update rollup for Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2

  • Log into a virtual machine on server 2012 r2 datacenter from a windows 8.1 client login

    Hello,
    I have set up a VPN on Windows Server 2012 r2 Datacenter using Hyper-V. Everything seems to be functioning ok using the Hyper V platform. I would like to know if it is possible to connect to a virtual machine on the VPN from a Windows 8.1 client using the
    widows login and if it is then how to go about it. If I could have some links to tutorials etc I would be greatful. I have not been able to find anything and I have been looking for days. I would really appreciate some assistance. Thanks in advance.
    Ed

    Hi Ed,
    I am sorry to say that I am not quite sure of your requirement. Is the Windows Server 2012 R2 computer a host server in Hyper-V? Did you mean that you want to RDP into a Hyper-V VM from a Windows 8.1 client? If yes, you need to allow Remote Desktop Connections
    in guest OS. The network adapter type must allow communication with host machine and network discovery mode and the services supporting network discovery mode must be turned on.
