    Print spools randomly stop: Server 10.3.9, client 10.4.5-6

    Greetings, I've seen multiple postings similar to my situation at the Apple forums with no resolution. I'm hoping that broadening my search will elicit some more helpful responses.... I have a 10.3.9 Server with 3 print spools (PAPD, LPD)--pretty vanilla setup, no limits or user restrictions...

    Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger) connecting to Panther Server

    There was a permissions 'correction' in the 10.4.6 update which caused similar issues. You sure it's a 10.4.5 system? In the case of the 10.4.6, one of the main culprits were old OS9 security locks on files and folders. To correct this, there were a couple quick and dirty fixes: 1. Make...

    " Tracking " software?

    Seriously, I don't think anyone suggested that we all wear masks and burn fires outside of our employees' homes. The real issue is that an employee, getting paid to do a job, is not doing that job. To make matters worse, the aforementioned employee is abusing company resources for personal gain...

    " Tracking " software?

    That's a very valid point--legally, if you do checks on one, you should do checks on all. But these aren't random checks, they're in response to specific actions. Maybe you could, instead, send out a blanket statement of policy that all work may be monitored/recorded for review. You could...

    MirrorG4 and OS 10.4.5 - Sleep freeze

    Greetings all, I've searched the forums and found a few similar items, but nothing that really tagged my particular issue. I have 3 separate G4 Mirror Door Macs, all with similar specs, and I'm having the same problem on all of them. Problem: After installing a clean version of OS 10.4 on the...

    " Tracking " software?

    Actually, if you are the owner of the business and you own the equipment and software licenses, the work that is completed on that equipment using that software is your property. You are providing the infrastructure and you are paying for the labor. It's yours. If you want to plow through the...

    Print service failed...can't restart it

    Well, I ended up kicking everyone off and just rebooting. That did the trick. I looked through the logs, but couldn't make sense of anything in partcular that caused the problem. Hope it doesn't pop up often. :)

    Print service failed...can't restart it

    I'm running OSX Server 10.3.9 on a DP 2.0GHz Xserve. The only real services I'm running on it are: AFP, Open Directory and Print. This morning, a bad job through the print queue and it consequently killed the print service. I need to get the print service running again, but I'm having...

    Itunes streaming port?

    Does anyone know what port Itunes uses for streaming media? Our company has a T1, but with 100+ users, a busy web server, and lots of email attachments coming in and out, I'm having to trim back on all unnecessary services to free up some bandwidth. Until we upgrade our line, I've got to...

    Photoshop Updates at Launch

    David, Your problem rings such a huge bell in my head that I'm getting a headache.... I know I've had the same exact problem, but I can't remember precisely what I did to remedy the situation. Have you tried a basic removal of the Photoshop prefs? You should find them in your Home...

    Freezing during shutdown

    First, let me give a little background.... Our newspaper is upgrading pretty much every mac in the building from old G3s running OS8.6-9.2 to new G5s and IMac G5s running OS 10.4.2. It's my job to get this done. To this end, I've done a couple things. One, I've setup a handful of...

    telnet auto connect

    From what little Linux/Unix experience I have, it sounds like you edited your /etc/profile.d and had it set to perform a couple commands at each login. Sound familiar? If not, I don't know what you did! :)
