Can HOST name (computer name) contain dashes ??

Can the HOST name contain dashes, such as...
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = My-Pentium-PC)(PORT = 1521))
On a stand-alone Windows-98 system, I am having trouble getting the 9i listener to work properly while trying to connect to the 9i database from Forms/Reports 6i. And I remember from the class I took that Orcale sometimes does not like dashes in certain things.

Ed,
To be on the safer side, why not use the IP address of the machine as the host name. Since you are not to sure of it.
I hope this will help.
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 111.12.23.45)(PORT = 1521))

  • How to extract xml tag name contains dashes

     
    Hi, How to parse XML file to extract root tag contains dashes in Flex,for example
    XML Input is: <regular-body>Text of my post...</regular-body>
    expected output is : regular-body
    I appreciate any of your suggestions or inputs

    Do you want to get the name of the XML ELEMENT regular-body, or the value in the XML file "Text of my post...".
    If its the latter, then you could use the bracket/quote notation for extracting the value, like in the following example:
    image = xmlWeather[0]..parameters["conditions-icon"]["icon-link"][idx]
    I use this when parsing weather information from a 3rd party in which their XML is loaded with dashes.
    If you are looking to get the actual element name, not sure how to do that.  I would think that if you are using an XML file, you would have at least the high level element known.

  • Host Name Character Restriction

    Hi Guys,
    Is there any way to over come the 13 character specific as the max num of characters allowed in the host name while installing NW
    I am trying to install NW2004s.
    But my system is having a host name which includes the domain name and obviously goes beyond 13 characters.
    Anyway to overcome this.
    Thanks in advance
    Helpful anwsers will be awarded.

    Hi Rosin,
    Generally it will look like this:
    Computer Name: <name> (max 13 chars)
    Domain <domain>
    Full computer name: <name>.<domain>
    Why your host name includes the domain name?
    Also make sure that your computer name (host name) contains alpha-numeric chars.

    Hello All,
    we have created shared folder on multiple client machine in domain environment on different 2 OS like-XP,Vista, etc.
    from some day's When we facing problem when we are access from host name that shared folder is accessible but same time same computer when we are trying to access the share folder with IP it asking for credentials i have type again and again
    correct credential but unable to access that. If i re-share the folder then we are access it but when we are restarted the system then same problem is occurring.
    I have checked IP,DNS,Gateway and more each & everything is well.
    Pls suggest us.
    Pankaj Kumar

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the same shared folder can be accessed by name, but can’t be accessed be IP address and asks for credentials.
    Please try to enable the option below on the device which has shared folder:
    Besides, check the Advanced Shring settings of shared folder and confrim that if there is any limitation settings.
    Best Regards,

  • How do I "scan" my LAN and find the host name of the server computer?

    I need to scan my LAN to find out the IP and host name of the computer in which is waiting for client acceptance because the server side of my program is not always on the same computer. Therefore, the IP and host name of my server is not final and can be placed on any computer on my network with over 50 connected computers. How might I check to see which computer is waiting for a client?
    EDIT: I need the host name only, disregard IP
    Thanks!

  • How can I get the host name from Email address?

    hi
    When I using socket to develope an email-sending servlet,I don't know how to get the host name from emial address.can you help me,thanks

    Stripping off the user name will give you the domain of from field in the message. This is not the same as the host. Take a look at:
    http://www.stopspam.org/email/headers/headers.html
    Theres a pretty good discussion about email headers and how to use the information. You probably want to check the information here against the RFC.

  • How can I create a host name site collection when I have a 443 web application already created for App model?

    Hi all,
    I have a 2013 farm set up with the App model
    1 web application for path based site collection using host name
    1 web application with SSL (no host name)
    1 web application for mysite
    My business request is that  I need to migrate SSL enabled 2007 content to this farm and use host name site collections.  I tried to create one more web application for this without any luck (the 443 IIS folder is already used by another web application). 
    I thought I bind the previous 443 web application with another IP address should be fine.  Seems like the IIS site is taken (https://server name:443) so it will not let me create one more.  How can I solve this problem so I can create the web application
    to host those host name site collections?  Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sally

    Hi Trevor,
    Thanks again for your quick reply.  I try the option 2 right after your post.  I use my front end server name for public URL (https://WFEName:443) and it fails again.  The error message is:
    The directory C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\443 is already being used by another IIS Web Site.  Choose a different root directory for your new Web application.
    After reading more, I saw mix Hosted Name Site collection and Path-based site collection aren't recommended.  Unfortunately I already have Path-based site collection created with App model web application
    (the web application without host name) in my farm.  In my Option 2, that web application without host name is used for App routing.  This takes the root folder 443 which will not allow any other web application to use the same name again. 
    Does that mean we can't create Host Named Site collection in the same farm?  Is there any configuration I need to check?
    Thanks again.

    I am not able to use the ftp export in Muse. When I enter my host, name and password, I get a long interlude of rainbow wheel and finally the message that my ftp host cannot be found. I have verified the name and that it is port 21. I can export to html and use another ftp client to upload (to the same server) but this is tedious and making minor changes is painful. Have you encountered this and found a solution?

    Hi Susan,
    In that case I will recommend that you consult a local technician/IT team and see if there is some network connectivity issue with your machine.

  • Can you refer to the original host name when using a challenge redirect?

    I have an authentication scheme that uses a challenge redirect to cause authentication to happen using https instead of http. However, this seems to break some of our monitoring scripts because now the credential challenge is coming from a different host name. Is it possible to refer to the original host name with some type of variable in the challenge redirect parameter? Below is an example:
    1. User accesses secured URL at http://appstenv2.company.com/testurl
    2. This webserver is hosting several aliases (appstenv2.company.com, appstenv4.company.com, appstenv6.company.com) and has a main name of appsdev.company.com - but is a single apache webserver where there is an application server plugin installed which will route to the desired application server environment based on the original hostname. So if a user accesses it with a name of appstenv2.company.com/testurl they will be routed to the "test 2" environment application server. If they access it as appstenv6.company.com, they would be routed to the "test 6" environment application server.
    3. This webserver listens on both http and https.
    4. The current challenge redirect can only redirect to a specific URL so it is set to "https://appsdev.company.com" which works fine interactively but the recorded monitoring scripts suddenly see a new hostname doing the prompting for credentials even though it is the same webserver - just a different alias.
    5. If possible, I would want to do the redirect in a relative fashion rather than absolute by using the original hostname from the URL being accessed. So, if the user was accessing http://appstenv2.company.com/testurl, I would like to redirect to https://appstenv2.company.com for the basic authentication. but with the same authentication scheme, if the user accesses http://appstenv6.company.com/testurl, I would want the challenge redirect to go to https://appstenv6.company.com. I'm hoping it's possible to use some system variable like SERVER_NAME to do this.
    Challenge Redirect: https://$SERVER_NAME
    Does anyone know if that is available in OAM 10.1.4.3 or some other way to accomplish the same thing with a single authentication scheme?

    No, there are not multiple policies - the host names for all aliases on that single webserver are together in a single host identifier. And I realize I can only have a single challenge redirect, I just want to use a variable to redirect to the host name that was accessed as opposed to a static name.

  • Automator -- Find X name contains - why can't i?

    i really dislike the way spotlight searches, I nearly always have to stop, change to "name contains" then use that box to search.
    I thought Automator could skip those steps for me. There IS an action "Find Finder items" and it defaults to "name contains", interestingly. First I tried making that action by itself a workflow, then an app. I could get it to bring up the search by name contains window, but after I entered my term and hit return, the box went away and no results appeared anywhere.
    So then I fumbled around trying to create a new folder, then search...no.
    This seems the essence of simplicity..what am I missing?

    Sounds like you're using the Finder's Find function, because a pure Spotlight search doesn't have a "name contains" option. You can replace the default Finder Find window by creating a new smart folder: Finder->File->New Smart Folder, tailor it to your needs, including where you want it to search by selecting Other and adding items. Mine has filename contains (not name contains—they're two different animals) and it searches in /System and /Library. Once you've tailored it properly, enter a name window, and save it to the Desktop. Once that's done, then drag it into TextEdit and change:
    <key>RawQuery</key>
    <string>(kMDItemFSName = '*<name you searched for>*'cd) && (kMDItemContentType != com.apple.mail.emlx) && (kMDItemContentType != public.vcard)</string>
    <key>SearchCriteria</key>
    to read:
    <key>RawQuery</key>
    <string></string>
    <key>SearchCriteria</key>
    and save the file. Rename it default_smart.plist
    Open /System/Library/CoreServices/, CONTROL_click on the Finder.app, and select show package contents. Drill down to /Contents/Resources/, rename the current default_smart.plist to default_smart.plist.bak, drag the default_smart.plist from the Desktop into /Contents/Resources/, close all windows, OPT-click on Dock's Finder icon, and select Relaunch. Now, CMD+F and see your new default Find window.

  • Can I send DHCP host name to my ISP from RV220W?
