ZCM 11 SP3 and Windows 8.1, need clarification...

I dont know if I can't read, but I need som clarification...
When SP3 arrived, there were problems with Win 8.1.
I have customers that have machines, that were upgraded to 8.1 and it have worked with the already installed 11.2.3a -agent, even if its not supported. They deployed ZCM 11.3-agent to this machines that were upgraded to 8.1, and they all crached, never started again. I made tests in my test-environment, same result.
Last week I started to check and found the update "ZENworks 11.3.0a Windows 8.1 Update" (https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7014805 / http://download.novell.com/Download?...d=0yMdXrTonF8~). Downloaded that yesterday, and was to test it today. Looked for the instructions again today, and now its not availble anymore, Obsolete. I have not deplyed it yet, so that is no problem.
There are since yesterday a new update, "ZCM 11.3.0 WIN8.1 Patch 866736" (http://download.novell.com/Download?...d=OvBLs9qZhrU~).
But in the instructions on this, it talks about it talks about how to update machines already updated. Here the text mentions "11.3.0_WIN8.1". What is that? Is it the now Obsolete "ZENworks 11.3.0a Windows 8.1 Update"? Or machined patched with the standard "Update for ZENworks (11 SP3)", that was created during SP3 install? If reffering to the last, it cant be done because in both my customers production environment and my testenvironment the Win 8.1 machined crached and never came up.
Next two methods in the description describes how to update "Windows 8.1 Update for ZENworks (11 SP3)", if already imported (zman supf "Windows 8.1 Update for ZENworks (11 SP3)" ZCM_11.3.0_WIN8.1_20140404_866736.zip).
But for those who have not imported that, what is the way to go? You cant download "Windows 8.1 Update for ZENworks (11 SP3)" anymore, and the patch seems to be for that one?
What is the way to get Win 8.1 to works with ZCM 11.3?
Can anyone clarify this?
I dont know if this belongs in agent forum or server-forum, but I start here.

  • Adobe Reader X 10.1 Install Failing on XP SP3 and Windows 7 (64 bit)

    After using the Customization Wizard 10 to create an .mst and executing the install via SCCM 2007 which I have done many times before, I am getting the following error on both the XP SP3 and Windows 7 (64 bit) machines in the Application Event Log:

    I have found another possible bug affecting network printing with 10.1.2 in Protected Mode on XP SP3 machines that has not been previously documented:
    A number of users in one office were not able to print with 10.1.2 in Protected Mode (even with the printing hotfix/patch previously released) to their default printer; however they were able to print fine with 10.0.1 in Protected Mode OR by disabling Protected Mode in 10.1.2.  They could print to Microsoft XPS Document Writer, however.
    The cause was determined to be an issue with capitilization of the printer name in the registry!  10.1.2 in Protected Mode seems to be sensitive to this for some strange reason, though other apps don't care.
    Check the following keys and ensure the capitalization of any references to name of your printer (or UNC path of the printer share) is consistent:
    HKCU\Printers\Connections
    HKCU\Printers\Settings
    HKCU\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\windows\Device
    In our case, the reference to the name of the default printer was in lowercase, while the printer path recorded under settings was in UPPERCASE.   Changing this to match immediately fixed the problem.

    Hi hzeros,
    >>Even with an offline installer or doing other steps is not possible, always tries to do a download from windows update and ofc, always fails
    Do you mean that if you install .NET Framework 3.5, you always need to download something from windows update? Does this means you need to update your OS, or your windows and service package isn't patched up?
    If you have any issue of updating the windows, please don't hesitate to ask here:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_update?tab=Threads
    Will you always get error 0x800F0906 whatever method you use to install the NET Framework?
    Please read a useful document first.
    Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8 or 8.1
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh506443(v=vs.110).aspx
    From this article, we see the meanings of the 2 errors you encountered. 
    0x800f0906:  “Windows couldn't connect to the Internet to download necessary files. Make sure that you're connected to the Internet, and click Retry to try again.
    ”0x800F081F:  “The changes could not be completed. Please reboot your computer and try again.”   
    You can install .NET Framework 3.5 without internet using the DISM tool. If you can connect internet, you can install it on demand or enable it in control panel.
    According to your description, you tried the DISM command-line tool but failed. Here are some friendly reminders.
    1.Open a Command Prompt window with administrative credentials
    2.Specifies the location of the files needed to restore the feature (in your post, the e:\sources\sxs directory). In other words, you need to put the installation media (ISO image or DVD) you installed Windows 8.1 from in the E driver.

  • Dns_probe_finished_no_iternet and windows update errors

    I have windows 8 and have been having problems lately. Whenever windows wants to do an update and I wait for too long the internet goes out and displays the error message dns_probe_finished_no_internet. there are very few times when it happens and windows
    does not need to update.
    Another problem is that when I do go to restart the computer for the windows update only to have it say that it failed and tries again in a few hours. I tried updating them individually but none of them worked.
    I have also tried to restart the dns client in services, but it won't work anymore.
    I tried looking this up but any solution I have found hasn't worked. Can someone please help me, I'm at the end of my wits with this.

    Hello Dieya105,
    To avoid misunderstanding, do you mean receive error  message‘dns_probe_finished_no_internet’ when you use Windows update or in browser?
    Please share us a screenshot for better analyzation.
    Have you run all the command ”netsh int ip reset, ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset” I mentioned in my last reply?
    If the error code is in browser, please run the command ping 8.8.8.8 and ping
    www.bing.com and check if you receive the normal respond.
    Please take a look at the following thread similar to this issue.
    http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-770260-dns-probe-finished-no-internet
    I suggest you to use antivirus software to scan for the malware.

    Have you tried the "newid" trick, maybe the correct driver is there but the imaging distro doesn't detect the which driver should be loaded for that specific nic?

  • Old 700mhz eMac, airport and Windows

    Hi,
    My mam has decided that she would like to get to know how to use my old eMac. I have installed it downstairs and she is getting on great.
    However, the next step is to get it connected to the Internet. I want to get a wireless router and an airports, plus a couple of wireless cards for the remaining 2 PC's. My questions are as follows
    Can I still get hold of an original airport? Can only seem to find airport extreme on the website?
    Will this integrate OK with a standard wireless adsl router and windows network?
    Need to get this sorted, cos my mam wants to start using email and chat so she can talk to her sisters more, and also wants to start using my old iPod! what have I started?

    Mark,
    Re original Airport cards and alternatives, refer to Henry B., "eMac airport undead?" #8, 11:11pm Oct 18, 2005 CDT
    Having set up both types of networks, I can confirm that setting up an Apple Airport Base Station is way easier than setting up a Windows one. The two will, however, play together nicely once everything is actually configured.
    One thing to watch for: newer WiFi Access Point (WAP) (AKA base stations) offer more advanced encryption options then the WEP available in the original Airport hardware and software, such as the WPA standard. As far as I can tell, the Airport software available for th 700MHz eMac running 10.2.8 only supports WEP, so set the WAP accordingly. Be sure to note the WAP password in hex format as that's what you'll need to enter in the 'other' computers (whether the 'other' is the Mac or the PC). It'll be easier to set up a WAP firsr without any password just to make sure you can access the WiFi network, then add the security features such as passwords and hiding the WiFi network's name.
    You can get a 802.11g WAP; that's backwards compatible with the slower 802.11b WiFi standard supported by the 700MHz eMac and original Airport card. Henry B.'s suggestion in the referenced thread of a wireless bridge could circumvent that bandwidth bottleneck. Note that in practice the greater bandwidth of 802.11g is only pertinent if you set up say a shared folder on a WinXP PC and share it witht he local network (including the Mac) and use it to share music or perform large local transfers --- the throughput bottleneck for Internet access is still mostly determined by the cable or DSL modem's bandwidth.
    p.s., Hope you're ready for you mother discovering how to forward e-mail to you!

  • Windows XP Clean Install – What I discovered and the help I need

    Windows XP Clean Install – What I discovered and the help I need
    I previously had a problem with my Laptop dying randomly you can read about it in the thread entitled Computer dies Randomly (Battery also dead) click to view
    Before I realised the solutions, I thought that maybe my Laptop had become infected with a Virus and decided it would be prudent to do a clean install of the Windows XP operating system.
    Everything went perfectly and thought a clean install was a good opportunity to download the “XP Service Pack 3” SP3 and did so, it seemed very quiet though and that’s when I realised I had no sound…
    I downloaded all of the sound drivers I could find on the Lenovo site for 3000 N100 (I knew from previous experience that the “SOUNDMAX” driver is the only one that actually works with this 3000 N100) in order to install this you have to install the Realtek HD audio driver, but in order to install that you have to install some other Driver/Soft that only works with SP1 or SP2 if you try to install it with SP3 it will say that you don’t need the file as your Service pack is newer than the file you want to install, this is understandable as SP3 is not final as of yet (but it’s good to know).
    My next problem was that my extra RAM was not detected, this was fixed by updating the BIOS, after installing all of the System updates, PC Doctor, everything I could find for 3000 N100 I decided to rest, I pushed the Lenovo care button and it did not work, I found a hot key driver and installed it but still the Lenovo care button does not work, previously when I pushed this button it would bring up the Lenovo menu but now it’s just a dead button, Does anyone know how to get this button working again?
    I am pretty sure that everything else is working fine now, just that button not working is very annoying, is there a set routing of installs you must do to get everything working, i.e. bios 1st audio 2nd system update 3rd etc...
    Please help, I hope I have helped you...

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ok first everything works now... except the Lenovo Care button, I just posted the other stuff cause it might help other members,  I have searched the forum for an anwser to this problem but there was only one anwser (suggesting to uninstall the driver restart and re-install it) and it did not result in a working Lenovo Care button...
    I don't beleive the Lenovo keyboad drivers are in any way related to the Service pack 3 as they do not use the Service pack files, to back this up I also had the same problem when Service Pack 2 was installed...
    The Lenovo Care button works fine on Boot up screen to access the rescue and recovery software (So the mechanics of the button are fine) but once Windows XP loads it is just a dead button, I remember it used to open up the Lenovo Care Start bar, I got it working once in the past but I can't remember what I did, I thought someone here might know the anwser...

  • SPS224 and Windows XP SP3 802.1x supplicant problem

    Hi everybody
    We run MS Active Directory based network (Windows Server 2008, MS NPS as RADIUS server) and have Windows XP SP3 and 7 in it. We have a lot of SPS224 (with the latest SW version 1.0.6) as the access switches, and we are trying to implement 802.1x in our network to authenticate users by their AD domain computer accounts. Also, we want to use dynamic VLAN assignment using RADIUS attributes. The authentication by PEAP-MSCHAPv2 works fine on all workstations but we have a problem with the dynamic VLAN assignment in case Windows XP machines are used. The problem is that after a successful authentication and VLAN assignment on a switch port, the Windows XP supplicant is trying to re-authenticate after several seconds. However, the switch port state remains authorized and the workstation does not lose connection. So, the only problem we see is that the state of supplicant does not correspond the switch port state. We have notice that the problem occurs when the "multiple sessions mode" is used (it is needed to enable VLAN  assignment by RADIUS attributes). We have tried the built-in Windows XP SP3 supplicant and Cisco Secure Services Client with the similar result. At the same time, the Windows 7 workstation works just fine, without any problems. Is anybody has faced this problem with Windows XP and has a workaround? Any help will be appreciated!

    Not exactly sure what could be the problem. It should be working - it's definitely supported (I'm currently typing this via a XP SP3 machine using PEAP WPA2/AES via WZC). The only things I can think of to check are:
    - Make sure your wireless drivers are up to date *this is a must*
    - Make sure the other supplicant is completely disabled (uninstall it if you really need to rule it out)
    - Try disabling the server certificate check in the WZC profile for this network (do you know for sure that your laptop trusts the IAS server's certificate)?
    - Are you doing machine or user authentication for PEAP - make sure you have the WZC profile properly configured
    - Are you 100% sure that you've configured everything properly for the network (WPA vs WPA2? AES vs. TKIP? etc.)

    I have partitioned my time capsule, as I want part of it to act as a media server for both mac and windows. However I don't know what format that I need to partition it to. I also can't make it a permanently accesible drive. I want to restore the drive to the original format (which I don't know) and start again and re-partition the drive in a format that can be used for media by both mac and PC and for time machine back-ups and make the media part of it permanetly accesible so I can add and acccess my files.
    Thanks

    You are mixing up a couple of things here.
    The TC drive cannot be partitioned without removing it.. did you do that?
    If you partition it you must use a Mac disk utility and use the HFS+ ie standard Mac format. And GUID partition table not windows type.
    You can select erase disk in the airport utility.. that will take the disk back to original format. No partitions. TC is deliberately not partitioned as it is not a media server.. it is a backup device for TM. Over time .. the disk will be filled with TM backups so you have a long history of file changes to your computer.
    There is no media server in the TC.. it is merely disk storage.. you can serve files from it to a media device.. but the TC itself is dumb as dumb.
    Now the actual format of the drive is irrelevant to the PC.. The TC offers SMB file services to the network. You can copy files to and from the TC as if it was a local disk without caring one iota about the format. The TC handles that .. it is not a local disk .. it is a network drive.
    Although you cannot partition the TC. you can still copy files to it.. this does have implications for TM.. but as long as there is plenty of free space should not be a major issue.
    You can create a disk image via the disk utility in a Mac.. and as stated you can create partitions if you do it on a Mac with the disk directly connected which means breaking warranty if any exists on the TC.
