Hi Everyone,

I have a client with Windows 10 with ACT! v18. It was running great for months now when you start ACT! the ACT! splash window appears, the program appears behind it, then it all disappears within a second. ACT! (program) is not running in Task Manager.

I have uninstalled all security software (with a reboot) with the same result.

I tried Rebuilding the preferences file per: https://help.act.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024241154-How-to-rebuild-the-Act-Preferences-file
but get the same result

Any suggested remedies would be appreciated!

I am trying to configure an Cisco ISP Failover on our Cisco 4321 Router and cannot get it to work as it will not browse the internet at all on the laptop whether I have VOCUS or TELSTRA or both connected to Cisco Router.

I can ping both the VOCUS WAN IP and Telstra NBN LAN IP from the cisco CCLI

Outcome I am looking for:

2x Internet Connections connected to cisco router
Telstra NBN Connection needs to act as as failover when VOCUS drops out.
Can browse internet on both connections.

I have configured the router as per this article: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/ip-routing/200785-ISP-Failover-with-default-routes-using-I.html

I am using the following configuration

1x Cisco 4321 Router - IOS Version 15.5
1x NIM-ES2-4 Module
1x VOCUS Fibre Internet on
WAN IP: 203.89.xx.xxx
WAN SUBNET: 255.255.255.252
Connected to Cisco Router interface: GigabitEthernet0/0/0

1x Telstra Smart Business Modem (NBN)
LAN IP: 192.168.1.1
LAN SUBNET: 255.255.255.0
Connected to Cisco Router interface: GigabitEthernet0/0/1

1x Windows Laptop
LAN IP: dhcp
LAN SubnetL dhcp
Connected to Layer 2 NIM-ES2-4 Module


Cisco Configuration is as follows

version 15.5
no service pad
service tcp-keepalives-in
service tcp-keepalives-out
service timestamps debug datetime msec
service timestamps log datetime msec
service password-encryption
no platform punt-keepalive disable-kernel-core

I need to create a Receive Connector that will act as a mail relay for an application. However this application is hosted within Akamai and can be sourced from a number of servers. I want to create a connector specifically allowing the subnets required and require the application to authenticate. The connector will have to be allowed to relay mail external to the company as well.

I just wanted to clarify what settings would need to be in place to accomplish this.

I have the following in place.

Remote Servers: only the subnets that host the application
Authentication: TLS and Externally Secured
Permissions: Exchange Servers

Would this config do the trick?

Thanks in advance.

I'm in the process of rebuilding a Windows 10 computer from scratch (new drive, new Windows installation, etc.) but am running into a snag with Act! 2010.  Once it is installed, it needs to activate with a licensing server.  The problem (well documented) is that the vendor's licensing servers are permanently shut down.

Does anyone have any process for working around this?  I still have a working copy on the old drive.  I'm wondering if there's a file or registry key that can be copied over to get around the issue.

I'm not trying to violate licensing rules here.  The software is licensed for this computer.  I'm simply trying to move that license over to a new drive in the same computer.

One solution is to buy the new version of Act!, but I'm not excited to spend $300 when the version I have is more than adequate for my needs.

Thanks to all in advance for useful advice.

Was creating a test group policy but changed permissions and took domain admin, enterprise admin off it etc

Now its telling me that the specified directory service attribute or value does not exist

Any best way to correct this, it won't let me delete the GPO

Server got encrypted with Hermes 2.1.
Act 2012 ADF file encrypted no bu available as bu drive also hit..

I can't tell if the encrypted 184meg file is the one needed or the bigger 440 meg ADF file. Trying to open, it says it was improperly detached and cannot open.

Is there any tool I can get to fix the ADF file, and create the associated ALF file? Tried to import the 440 meg ADF file into new act database, will not open, says corrupted. Client has NO support contract with ACT/Swiftpage.

Is there an Act Tech here that can fix this file? If I pay the ransom for the smaller file, get the decryptor tool and it is not current, I am out the money. I'd rather pay ACT to fix it, but they wont even talk to you without support contract.

Thanks.

We have a client that has ACT 2011 on Windows Server 2012 R2.  They have somehow managed to damaged all of their ADF files by messing with ACT 2011 and SQL server.  We have no idea what was done except that it is not working.

1. We are getting this error message with all the current database/files when we try to open them:

This database cannot be opened because the SQLServer version of this database cannot be identified.

2. When we restore backup files from before this issue occurred and try to open them we get a dialog box that say it will verify the database.  However, the next moment. we get an error message:

The log scan number (1201:656:1) passed the log scan in database 'Sales' is not valid,  The error may indicate data corruption or that the log file (.ldf) does not match the data file (.mdf).  ......


3. Finally, when we try to attach the file (that the client "messed with") to the database (via ACTDiag) I get this error message:

"The database was created with a version of SQL Server that is neither SQL Server 2005 or Server 2008.  Attaching a non-SQL 2005 or 2008 database is not supported."  However, I do not believe SQL version about 2008 R2 has been on this machine.

We are doing what seems to be endless research and multiple solutions for SQL and/or ACT and nothing seems to be working.  Any thoughts or advice?

I am working in Access 2010.  I have a main form with subform1 and subform2 (this is a continuous form) on subform1.  The problem is with the tab order of subform2.  There are only two fields  on the form.  They are phone, with an input mask, and phone type.  The tab order is correct and it should go to phone but the tab moves it from subform1 to the phone type field and completely bypasses the phone field.  The next tab takes you to the phone field.  This only happens on the first record.  Once the phone and type are filed in it advances to the second record's phone field first.

I set up forms like this a lot and have never seen it act this way.  Any ideas why this is happening?

Hi
singleparentmeet.com is a really pitiful dating site. I want to unenroll, but their site is truly pathetic.
They don't have tech support and their help page requires 3rd party cookies.
Dating is a hotbed of scammers. Enabling 3rd party cookies doesn't appeal to me, especially from a crappy site that might have vultures, or Nigerians waiting for idiots to allow them access to info. Nigerian vultures!? How can I safely unenroll from this  site? Can I get VISA to read them the riot act? They will probably charge me soon, month end!

Thanks

Hi Experts

What is the Best Practice re IIS & RDS services?

We have 2 VMs on a HyperV: DC + RDS (both WIndows 2016)
Our CRM, ACT! from Sage,  is currently installed on the RDS but is only used internally.
We need to install a IIS / Web Server to give remote access to ACT! via the web

Can I use the RDS to install these additional components? My instinct is to build a new VM and install ACT! on that VM.

What says you?

Below mentioned script fine. I am trying to sort-object -descending the lastlogondate but output not getting as expected, getting output in  generic   .

Can any one assist to sort the lastlogondate in to – descending.

Thanks in advance

$DCs = 'DC01','DC02'

$ADObjects = @{}
ForEach ($DC in $DCs) {
	Write-Host "Processing logons at $($DC) ..."
	Get-ADComputer -Filter * -Property lastLogon -SearchBase "DC=test,DC=com" -Server $DC | ForEach-Object {
		If ($ADObjects.ContainsKey($_.SamAccountName)) {
			If ($ADObjects[$_.SamAccountName].LastLogon -lt $_.lastLogon) {
				$ADObjects[$_.SamAccountName].LastLogon = $_.lastLogon
				$ADObjects[$_.SamAccountName].LastLogonAt = $DC
			}
		} Else {
			$ADObjects.Add($_.SamAccountName, ($_ | Select-Object SamAccountName, Name, LastLogon, @{Name='LastLogonAt'; Expression={$DC}}))
		}
	}
}
$ADObjects.Values |
	Sort-Object Name, SamAccountName, @{Name='Last Logon Date'; Expression={If ($_.lastLogon) {[datetime]::FromFileTime($_.lastLogon)} Else {'None'}}}, LastLogonAt |
	Export-CSV C:\temp\LastLogonReport.csv -NoTypeInformation
