Workstations keeping connection open to the ZfD server

Hi,
I have the following situation:
NetWare 5.1 SP6 server, with ZENworks for Desktops 3.2 SP3 installed. We
use ZEN Imaging. Now, a lot of our workstations are keeping a conenction
open to the server. In Monitor, the Network Address shows the IP address
of our server. This makes it very hard for our administrators to keep
track on which PC is connected to the network at the moment.
How can I clear these connections, or better yet: how can I prevent them
from coming up ?
Thanks in advance.
Arjan

  • HELP!!!   Dreamweaver could not connect you to the remote server"

    Hi all,
    I have been struck by what seems a common problem with
    Dreamweaver/Contribute.
    I get this message when trying to “Enable Contribute
    compatibility” in Dreamweaver:
    “Dreamweaver could not connect you to the remote
    server. You cannot perform Contribute administration tasks without
    a connection to a remote server. Please fix the remote connection
    before continuing.”
    I have read that DW will try to write and delete a file to
    confirm the connection… When I look at the FTP log of DW, it
    confirms that the Temp file has been written and deleted.
    So, it has in fact connected to the remote server...!
    Things I have done to try to eliminate errors includes:
    • Ensure Contribute is not open on the PC.
    • Contacted my ISP to ensure that “/” is
    the “Host directory”
    • Modified the URL in each of the tabs listed below
     Including the Base web address
    Below are the settings I have selected in the Site definition
    window:
    Local info:
    Local root folder: v\website\
    Links relative to Document:
    Http address:
    http://www.website.com
    Remote Info:
    Access FTP
    FTP Host www.website.com
    Host directory /
    Contribute:
    Rollback enabled: Currently off
    CPS enable Currently off
    Site URL:
    http://www.website.com
    I have spoken to my ISP: www.webcentral.com.au
    • They have confirmed that Contribute is used on their
    products by other users.
    • They also stated that they sell Sharepoint as their
    CMS option
    What other things can I try to eliminate this problem?

    Hi,
    Can you please try adding the DNS in your machine where DW
    is running?
    Steps to add:
    1) In the Network Connections, right click Local Area
    Connection.
    2) Select Properties.
    3) Select Internet Protocal (TCP/IP) and click Properties
    button.
    4) Select the radio button Use the following DNS server
    addresses and provide your preferred DNS and Alternate DNS server
    addresses.
    5) Click Advanced button and select DNS tab in the Advanced
    PCT/IP setting dialog.
    6) Select the radio button "Append these DNS suffixes (in
    Order)" and add the values and also add DNS suffix for this
    connection.
    7) Click ok and close all the dialogs.
    Hope this helps.

    When you have completed design your form on design tab, you may open form to filling out and submit. At this time, if you don’t change your form, it will keep the open state. if you change or edit your form, it will showing a warning dialog to let you know form will be changed to closed, and remind you to open it again.

  • N85- keeps connecting itself to the Internet

    Hello!
    My phone (N85) keeps connecting itself to the internet every minute or so.
    This is driving me crazy cause I don't have a data plan.
    So I had to check my phone every minute and disconnected the Internet.
    Now I'm back home and it keeps connecting itself to WLAN.
    What should I do?!
    'Thanks in advance! :'(
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Actually, if you just remove the mobile network access point your phone will only be able to connect to WLAN and so no connection when out of range from your network at home.
    First select the offline profile, then delete the mobile data access point in Tools > Settings > Connection > Destinations

  • TS1424 how about "the connection error. The game server had an internal error. please try again later". thats what happen to me while i want to purchase a gem in dragonvale aplication and i being charged for the Gem that i never had.

    regarding of the game that I playing, its Dragonvale, I plan to buy a Gem. and after I desided to buy, but what happen is that the game centre it self didnt gave me the Gem but instead they said "Connection Error. The Game server had an internal error. Please try again later."
    so if thats the case of error transaction..so why the BACKFLIP STUDIOS(DragonVale) charged me to my credit card for the Gem that I never received.
    I need to clear this things.

  • VB6 - Keep Connection open?

    Hi,
    I have developed a VB6 application which logs on / connects to SAP and executes a number of RFC's.
    At the moment I have left the connection open throughout the running of my application, so that several RFC's can be executed without the need to log on / off each time. However, I have discovered that SAP messages being returned to me do not appear to be cleared (from memory) giving me incorrect messages. If the user stops and starts the connection each time before executing an RFC , this does not happen and messages / results are as expected.
    Should I be killing the connection for every RFC I execute, or am I missing some more basic refresh type of command?
    Another question, which may well be answered by the previous one: one of the RFC's I need to execute involves uploading from one line of data to many lines of data. I intend to loop through each line and execute the RFC for each line of data, as this appears to be how the RFC handles it. Given that I may have many lines and therfore many RFC calls, is it best to repeatedly call the RFC without closing the connection, as posted above? If I have to close the connection and re-open it each time as well as call the RFC, it could turn out to be a lengthy process.
    Hope you can advise,
    thanks,
    Steve

    Hi,
    I'm not quite sure I understand your question. If you want to open only a single connection and use only that connection, you'll have to do that in your code.
    What is your DBA complaining about exactly though? Do you accumulate sessions, is that why he/she is concerned? You have idle sessions not being used? How many sessions? etc.
    I'd check to make sure your code is cleaning up properly, and use connection pooling if you're not already.
    Hope it helps,

  • Using LabVIEW 6i w Win NT or 95/98 et al: how do you keep a TCP/IP open connection 'open'. The application closes the connection even though the refnum is still active (valid.)

    Actually, I open the TCP/IP connection and pass the connection ID through. Each command to/from (cycle) the UUT successfully executes. The refnum for the connection ID is then passed via a shift register in the while loop. i am using the type cast (4X) function to determine the validity of the connection and case statements. If the refnum is non-zero it assumes the connection is still open; if the result is zero, then the connection is closed and a new session opened in that case. What is happening is that the connection has closed and the refnum is still nonzero after the type cast function; su
    bsequent commands to the UUT then produce Error 1 for the TCP/IP function (there was no open connection, so there could be no write occurrence.) Obviously, this probably shouldn't be happening. If someone can give me some idea of what I am not doing, or am doing wrong, I sure would appreciate it. In the event that I open and close a connection for each command to(from)(cycle) the UUT everything works. It is extremely slow. The connection should remain open according to all the pointers in the Help and TCP/IP function descriptions. Some of this application is proprietary, so not sure how much of an example I could use to illustrate from a VI, but if this doesn't get any where, I will see what i can do to better illustrate the problem...Thanks. T.Raper

    I believe this is a related question. I am developing a LV application the uses TCP/IP to control up to 8 devices-under-test (DUT) at one time. They start and finish testing at arbitrary times relative to each other, and the IP addresses are not known until the DUT arrives. I have some question on what is the best way to manage the TCP/IP handles.
    Presently, I have 8 Global IP addresses (one per testing site) that are updated as DUTs arrive and depart, and then whenever I need to communicate with a DUT I use TCP-Open, Write/Read, and TCP-Close. I do this Open/Write/Close each time there is a message to be sent to a DUT. This is basically working, but I notice that the OS (Windows XP or 2000) is running through local TCP/IP ports at a ferocious rate due to the TIME_WAIT behavior of Closed TCP/IP ports (It takes many minutes for a local port to become available again after being closed). If I am not careful, I can quickly exhaust the pool of OS ports by using tight polling loops or other very quick DUT accesses. I have tried not to do that in order to avoid running out of handles, but it is still very wasteful of ports.
    While it is working, I feel so dirty burning through these handles like this since they appear to be a precious resource. I really cannot easily merge multiple Read/Writes into a single Open/Close since there are dozens of otherwise unrelated tests that communicate with the DUT as a part of their functionality. The tests are even in different subVI's that are accessed via a vi-server, and only one is loaded at a time.  
    I thought that a cute idea would be to cache the handles in Globals, and wrap the Open to use the cache if valid, but reading this thread is making me think it is a lot of effort -- I believe I would need to keep a VI running as a "IP Connection Server" at all times and use some form of messaging to get it to Open/Close TCP connections as needed. Since the DUTs arrive at aribitrary times, and with random IP addresses, I cannot establish all the TCP handles ahead of time -- they would need to be created dynamically. It is much more difficult than simply keeping the Connection IDs in global variables -- the VI that Opened them must not be allowed to terminate.
    So... I am curious...... is it really that bad to Open/Close as frequently as I am doing it? Does it make me a bad person? I understand it is inefficient use of time, but the simplicity it brings to the structure seems huge, and the DUT is very slow anyway. And if it is bad, are they any more recent thoughts on alternatives? Do VISA handles behave the same way as TCP handles (ie. auto-close themselves upon exit of the VI that Opened them) ?

  • SQL Developer 1.5.4: "Keep alive" setting to keep connections open?

    Is there any way to configure SQL Developer 1.5.4 such that it "pings" the server every now then to keep the connection open?
    It's very frustrating to be working on a script, step away from it for a while, and have SQL Developer freeze when trying to execute the next SQL statement.
    What can I do?
    My workaround--execute a "dummy" SQL statement like "select * from dual;" every now and then to keep a connection open.
    Thanks.
    Dana

    I have had this problem till I had a RAM upgrade.
    Since I have had the upgrade JDeveloper also responds well.
    A way to check is via task manager, if PF usage is more than you physical RAM size it is a indicator that you need more RAM or shut down some application that is hogging memory.
    Just to rule out if its not some other problem, have you tried working in SQL Developer running by itself or with one other program.

  • I need to forward some photos and I keep getting this message " the email server didn't recognize your user name or password.

    In trying to forward some photos, I keep getting the message:
    The email server didn't recognize your user name
    and password.

    First go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account that's there.  Close iPhoto, reopen and add your email account to the Accounts preference pane and try again.
    Next, and IMO the better solution, set Mail are the email client for iPhoto in iPhoto's General preference pane:
    This gives you better access to your contacts, a sent copy and, if you need a layout like iPhoto gives you, similar layouts in iPhoto's stationary option.

  • How to know the connected users to the Content Server Instance?

    Hello
    I need to know that in order to be able to run long tasks (specially with the archiver) in the lowest used hours. The number of connected contributors really represents the true use of the CS.
    I am lookin for this for 10g (UCM) and 11g (WCC)
    Thank you
    Carlos

    You could use some statistics such as netstat from the Apache web server (see e.g. here for more details). You could also use tools such as Google Analytics to monitor website traffic for you.
    However, even though there is certainly a correlation between the number of the connected users and the workload on the server, the real workload depends rather on the number and the type of operations that has to be performed (e.g. a checkin is more costly than just displaying a page, conversions might be more costly than anything else) and a single system user (such as running the Archiver some other batch processes) could produce much higher workload (due to missing waiting time) than a hundred of human users.
    Besides, the fact that at the moment the number of users is low does not necessarily mean that it will be low until the end of your batch job - unless you know the behavior of your users, which often is not a rocket science even without any analytic tool - e.g. a public organization operation in 5x8 working regime (let's say from 8am to 6pm) won't produce much human generated workload in quiet hours on week days or on weekends. If you operate in 7x24 mode with unpredictable user's behavior, none of such tools will help you anyway.
    Because, what you really need to monitor is not web stats, but user experience. Oracle has a tool for that - it's called Real User Experience Insight. In addition to monitoring, it can alert you, or your application (even a 3rd party via SNMP traps). If you want to automate also recovery (for 11g), you could expose private cloud functionality as available in via the Enterprise Manager and management packs - e.g. you could start a new server in the cluster, throttle resource to your batch jobs, etc. Unless you need to comply with strict SLAs, this kind of a solution would probably be an overkill, but it is possible.
    This reasoning also shows what questions you should ask to choose the right solution - if no one cares that the performance goes, why should you? If someone cares, you will know how big problem it is - you may just add a new node to the cluster to increase the performance, use free tools or your common sense to re-organize the batch jobs to distribute the workload more evenly, or if it is a real issue, you may search for some sophisticated enterprise-level solution.

  • Itunes wont connect me with the iphone server to upgrade

    I am getting really ticked about this one. I had this in both tiger and now in Leopard. I cannot connect with the itunes store to access my iphone update. the request times out, and then itunes gives me an error message saying I do not have permission to access the requested source. Anyone have clues about this? I didn't start having problems until I got the iphone. I also have frequent error messages from the store saying that my connection was lost and the it has reset. I have checked all firewall issues, and no connection issues with the internet.
    Does anyone out there have help?

    Yes, that's the case. Just as my iPhone 3G has topped out at version 4.2 while the newer iPhones, iPod Touches, and the iPads are on 4.3.
