When I start up Parallels (5600), pvsnatd attempts to reach out to a bunch of unknown IP addresses. One, for example, was resolved to hosted.by.alphred.com. If I deny the outbound requests, it keeps trying other seemingly random IP addresses. Most IP addresses can't be resolved. The request...

It seems that PWS does not like Spaces either. I experienced a CTF and subsequent launches resulted in a hung system. Later launches started to complain about "Unable to allocate memory to the virtual monitor." When PWS was shutdown and relaunched it resulted in a kernel panic. This was the...

After installing the Cisco VPN I am now seeing the same thing. First, errors such as 'Unable to allocate memory PE', then a kernel panic. After reboot, it works again. I also noticed this warning popping up in the logs now probably due to the disk not mounting in the Finder properly: Oct 28...

I am experiencing success with Leopard, Bootcamp, PWS 5160. This is what I did: 1) Installed Leopard from scratch on a MacBook Pro 17 (Core Duo 2) 2) Setup Boot Camp and restored the volume with WinClone 3) Migrated my user account (not apps) from my old MacBook Pro (Migration Assistant) 4)...

The upgrade/installation should show the task bar by default. It would save the typical user a lot of trouble trying to figure out what was going on when the task bar disappears. It was not obvious - even a dialog message during the upgrade would have helped. I, for one, do not use...

I am finding that the latest build leaks an enourmous amount of Win32 handles. The vast majority of windows applications and services use, at most, around 200 handles whereas PWS will use upwards of 85,000 or more! This is all coming from the Parallel Tools executable. Below is a dump from...

Other topics are discussing the corruption of the image file in the host. I am now finding that 3.0 is deteriorating the integrity of the internals of the drive image. Prior to 3.0 a periodic chkdsk rarely turned up a single error. With 3.0, after a short while, chkdsk will start turning up...

What is maddening is that this issue has been around since the beginning. I had to de-install and re-install PWS and Cisco also (several times). Downing the one interface does work but this is a pain and problematic in some cases. By comparison VMWare, while it warns of this potential issue...

Confirmed 4124 breaks Cisco VPN but VMWare does not Bottom line, installing 4124 will break most existing Cisco VPN installations. At the very least, it is a crap shoot if it will continue to work or not. Re-installing the Cisco software did not fix the problem in my case. I also tried the...

How much do you get paid? This thread makes me sick. I'm so glad I don't work for most of the people here whining about a $40 upgrade. I mean, honestly, I pay $40 for 2 days of parking and I pay that much for crappy little Windoze service monitors and the like. Think about it; if we assume...

According to the docs, I don't need to have the Taskbar visible in order to use the Start menu. Is this broken or incorrect in the docs? From the docs: Show. Select this option if you want Windows taskbar to be displayed on the screen while you run a virtual machine in Coherence. If you...

I upgraded from 1848 directly to 3186. I have not noticed any problems in any mode except that the start menu does not work from the dock icon. I upgraded (today) to 3188. In each case the upgrade went smoothly, I was prompted to update the Parallel Tools, and the apps all seem to work well...

The order of events are: 1) Working along saving changes to text files that live in the Mac OS local disk 2) During a save (at seemingly random points), the write fails and the app hangs 3) Any attempt to kill the app fails 4) Any attempt to access the shared volume causes the accessing app...

Try turning off the Parallels network adapters in OS X and the shared folder setting in the Parallels OS config then running the Cisco installer. Make sure your Windoze AV is off also. I have 4.08.00.0440 running without problems (other than I can't use the Mac side simultaneously).

For me, it just dies by using it. Sometimes it won't even remain stable for an hour. Even after a full reboot, if I pass a lot of data through the interface eventually it dies and has to be bounced as described above. At least it hasn't corrupted files like it used to... BTW, when this...

Yes, Sharepoints is great for managing OSX shares, the other part of the equation for easy SMB is the name resolution component supplied by Bonjour for Windows. For the paranoid, you can also use Flying Buttress to create discreet firewall rules - a touch more complex than the standard firewall...

I wouldn't be so sure. Amazon just passes along external references. If you check the fine print, they aren't responsible in any way. The agreement with MS states that you cannot sell the OEM variant without a system. Many fly-by-night here-and-gone resellers have been busted doing the...

To answer your question; as of the time of this writing - No.

IMO, at best, the Windows side becomes infected with some undesireable. Fortunately, because Windows does not play well with Unix, the options are fairly limited in attacking a remote Unix host from within Windows once access is gained. Now add to that the additional strength added by OSX, and...

On the Windows update site, if you don't allow them to install the 'Geniune Advantage' spyware then it will fail (did for me anyway). I allowed the first one and have been blocking any more 'advantages' since then and it seems to have fixed the problem.
