Unix Desktop of a remote machine via tarantella?

Hi,
is it possible, to start a Unix Desktop (i.e. a KDE session) via
Tarantella like it is possible to start a Windows Desktop Session?
I'm using EE 3.42 on a Linux machine.
Regards and thanks,
Jens

Jens,
I'm a bit confused by your post. EE 3.42 provides as a default object
either KDE or Gnome (depending on what is installed). You should have
this as one of your default objects. This would launch on a Tier 2
server (EE server). If you wanted to launch the same application on a
Tier 3 (application server), you would just modify or better duplicate
the default KDE object and specify the new host in the "Hosts" tab in
the Object Manager.
If you don't have a KDE app object configured you can configure one such as
/opt/tarantella/bin/tarantella object list_attributes --name
"o=organization/cn=KDE (squiddy)"

    Clearly the remote EXE cannot run in that context.  YOU should not run that program remotely.

  • Trouble accessing a remote machine via ARD over a VPN

    Hi There,
    I'm having  trouble accessing a remote Workstation via ARD over a VPN.
    The VPN is set up and I can:
    - Control our 10.6 server via ARD remotely
    - Mount volums from the 10.6 server remotely
    - Access another server (we run an accounting server) remotely
    But we can't access a Workstation using ARD.
    I can connect to the Workstation when in the office so assume it's configured for access - I guess I suspect the issue lies with the Firewall on the 10.6 server and/or the Netgear FSV366G Firewall.
    The VPN is setup on the 10.6 server so figure it's something to do with Snow Leopard server?
    I'm just not sure how to narrow things down and fix the issue - although I setup the server I'm not super Unix savvy.
    Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Cheers
    Ben

    I can't say for certain what is going wrong in your case but I can confirm it is possible to do an ARD connection i.e. Screen Sharing to a remote user connected via a VPN. The way we do this is to get the user to connect to the VPN server (a Mac OS X Server), then on the Mac OS X Server in Server Admin see what IP address they have been allocated by the VPN server, then tell ARD Admin to connect to that IP address.
    This works fine for me.
    The IP address will be a 'local'  to the ARD and VPN machines IP address it would not be the remote public or private IP addresses.

  • How to start/stop/restart a java desktop application from remote machine

    Hi,
    I want to know is there a way in java where i can start/stop/restart a java desktop application running on a remote machine through another java desktop application?
    For e.g i have an Admin console which monitors its clients based on socket communication, all of them are java desktop applications. I want to also give start/stop remote clients through my Admin console.
    I am thinking in terms of windows system service which can start/restart/stop my clients on request of Admin console, but how can i call this system service remotely?
    How can i do it?

    I got it. its about connection...

  • Unable to connect via BCP on a remote machine

    Hi, Hoping for some help - probably really basic question!
    I've been using BCP for a while now to import data to a table, where the script is on the same machine as the database.
    What I'm trying to do now is load data into a table on the same DB, but trigger the BCP command from a different machine.
    BCP TeamSandBox.dbo.Adhoc_List in D:\Import\Adhoc_List.txt -t, -f D:\Import\FormatFileAdhoc_list.fmt -T
    This is my main BCP command, and works fine from the local machine, bit when triggered from a remote machine, I get this...
    SQLState = 28000, NativeError = 18456
    Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'Domain\UID'.
    SQLState = 42000, NativeError = 4060
    Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot open database "TeamSandBox" requested by the login. The login failed.
    The domain\account I'm using has full sysadmin access to the server, and db_owner to the database. Equally, running SQLCMD commands from the same remote machine also works just fine - including inserting into the same table.
    Is there an access priviledge I'm missing out here?
    Thanks

    You have missed the -S parameter to enter your servername/instancename and -d for database name. -d is not mandatory but is good to avoid confusion and to make sure you hit the correct database.

    I'm not sure if Apple Remote can, but
    Microsoft offers a free program called Remote Desktop Connection so you can do just that.

  • Communicating with C Compiler Toolchain on Remote Machine

    Hi,
    I'm trying to develop a target for LabVIEW Embedded where the C compiler resides on another machine.  I have a Debian Linux machine hosting my BSP development for my target (MPC5121e); gcc cross-compiler w/patches, ltib, u-boot, etc. is all configured and running; linux loads on my target and NFS mounts a file system hosted on this machine. 
    All of the target examples for LV Embedded have the development tools hosted on the same machine as LabVIEW (Windows); though some use Cygwin to "fake" out a linux development toolchain.  I'm trying not to duplicate my linux hosted development toolchain on Windows; though possible; it will probably create a whole host of other problems.  Thus; is there a "proper" way of calling a toolchain hosted on another machine?  Should I still use the system exec wrapper? RPC calls? or some type of script to ftp the files to the remote machine and compile them?  Any suggestions or documentation would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Wow, thanks for all this feedback! I'll address some of the issues below:
    - While using the target
    editor; if path to LEP file is too long; the actual file name isn't
    shown; and there isn't a way to see it by browsing; thus you must
    manually view the TgtSupp.xml file to see what it is.
    I'm not seeing this behavior. If the path to the plug-in VI is too long, it will wrap the name. If you place your cursor in the field and move it with the arrow keys, you should be able to see the full VI name, line by line. If you see different behavior, let me know what page/tab of the Target Editor you see it in and I will try to reproduce it.
    - If there is an error in one of the LEP vi's (i.e. vi is not executable for linkage or other reasons); there is no indication of this while either using the target editor or when configuring a project for that embedded target.  Weird stuff happens such as LEP's pointed to by the Shortcut Menu Items & Category tabs via Target Editor; sometimes do not show up in the project manager.  I've spent way too much time trying to figure this out.  I eventually printed out the TgtSupp.xml file and manually opened up each LEP vi to ensure they opened without errors (which naturally occur when you're trying to develop a new target).
    As I develop plug-in VIs, I do so with them in the Windows target context, so that I can verify that they should run properly. Also, I set the INI token projectDebugPumpOSMsgs=True (per the readme) so that I can debug plug-in VIs. It is true that the target editor does not warn you when you give it paths to broken VIs. A more proactive detection of broken VIs by the Target Editor could make things easier on LV MPU SDK developers.
    - Need better description / documentation on
    calling details for LEP functions; i.e. - wrapper functions that are
    there to integrate with the rest of the development system.  The
    developer shouldn't have to look at example code in order to reverse
    engineer this stuff.
    I assume you are talking about the architecture of some of the example targets that use VI references for many of the example targets. This architecture scales very well when making new targets, but it is probably overkill when you just want to make a single target, and it is probably easier to just have a simple set of VIs to build/download/run/debug. Which VIs would you like to be more well-documented?
    - Need some documentation of the mechanism
    used to store parameters for targets & build options.  This is some
    black-box infrastructure that doesn't appear to be described anywhere;
    with password protected vi's.  Again; the developer shouldn't have to
    look at example code in order to reverse engineer this stuff when
    developing their own target.  The
    LEP_Utilities_GetSetProjectData_Variant does have a help file, but I
    haven't seen documentation on how to "properly" use these in any of the
    manuals, training or even example code (comments).
    The LEP_Utilities_GetSetProjectData is a very important part of creating VIs. The VI documentation describes its behavior, although I'm sure it could use some more explanation. When you set project data, you are essentially telling LabVIEW that you want to save that variable to the lvproj file (on next project save). This data can be saved for the entire target, or per build specification. Getprojectdata allows you to retrieve that information the next time the project is opened. The Embedded Development Module palette contains many VIs that can be used in the creation of a new target. Please let me know if you find the VI documentation for any of these to be insufficient.
    - How are
    embedded target lists unified across the targets directory; i.e.
    targets/NI/embedded/unix and targets/mycompany/embedded/unix; I've seen
    some strange behaviour when selecting a target at the project level
    because of this.  This may be due to the fact that I copied a target
    from the targets/NI/embedded/unix and put it into
    targets/mycompany/embedded/unix for modification; maybe a taboo; but I
    could not find any documentation on this.
    All sorts of cross-linking errors might occur from copying a directory of plug-n VIs. The Porting Guide describes the directory architecture. This architecture is important because when LabVIEW is opened, it looks in these specific locations to populate the available embedded targets. You can use the Target Editor to create copies of targets (use Save/Save As), and this will relink/rename VIs.
    Please keep the feedback coming, and let me know if you have further questions.

  • Using remote machines for report generation

    Since LabView does not have cross-platform openoffice support, I was looking at ways of generating reports from a LabView session (2010) running on a mac. The report generation VI contains a somewhat suggestive machine name input. Can one connect to a remote machine (which is windows XP and has microsoft word / excel installed) to generate reports from a mac running LabView ?

    With some work I think is is do-able.
    If the PC had an exe deployed and running that was served via VI Server the report could be run and generated on the PC when invoked from the Mac.
    So in theory yes!
    Edit:
    VI server is not required if the exe on the PC listens at a TCP/IP port and supports a protocol to accept the report "job".
    I'll watch to see (and in hopes of) a better solution form others.

    Hi,
    For this topic you should have a look ( 2004-07-08 The Java Specialists' Newsletter [Issue 091] )
    from Dr. Heinz Kabutz. Indeed, the newsletter is quite useful and sometimes also amazing.
    I really enjoy reading it.
    In this newsletter he is exactly doing what you wanted to know.
    He uses an ObjectOutputStream, but compresses the screenshot beforehand as follows:
        import com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.*;
        Toolkit defaultToolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
        Rectangle shotArea = new Rectangle(
            defaultToolkit.getScreenSize());
        ByteArrayOutputStream bout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(bout);
        encoder.encode(robot.createScreenCapture(shotArea));
        return bout.toByteArray();Hope that helps

  • SJSAS 9.1 does not expose EJB 3.0 remote Interface via JNDI

    I have successfully deployed a simple Stateful EJB 3.0 bean (CartBean, like the one in the Java EE 5 tutorial remote interface Cart) on SJSAS 9.1, located on machine host1.
    After I deployed the CartBean, I browsed the SJSAS and noticed the existence of the following JNDI entries:
    ejb/Cart
    ejb/Cart__3_x_Internal_RemoteBusinessHome__
    ejb/Cart#main.Cart
    ejb/mgmt
    ejb/myOtherEJB_2_x_bean ( +myOtherEJB_2_x_bean+ is a different 2.x bean that I have deployed as well)So, I am trying to access the remote interface of the CartBean from a remote machine, host2. The client application is a Java-standalone client.
    I am using the Interoperable Naming Service syntax: corbaname:iiop:host1:3700#<JNDI name>
    The problem is that the remote interface of the bean does NOT seem to be available via JNDI. I get the javax.naming.NameNotFoundException when I try to do a lookup like:
    corbaname:iiop:host1:3700#ejb/Cart
    On the other hand, the following lookups succeed:
    corbaname:iiop:host1:3700#ejb/mgmt
    corbaname:iiop:host1:3700#myOtherEJB_2_x_bean
    and also the following succeeds:
    corbaname:iiop:host1:3700#ejb/Cart__3_x_Internal_RemoteBusinessHome__So it seems like the Remote interface is not available via JNDI, rather only some internal SJSAS implementation (the object returned from the ejb/Cart__3_x_Internal_RemoteBusinessHome__ lookup is of type: com.sun.corba.se.impl.corba.CORBAObjectImpl
    Why is this happening? I know there used to be a bug in Glassfish, but I thought it had been fixed since 2006.
    Many thanks in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The EJB 3.0 Remote Business references are not directly stored in CosNaming. EJB 3.0 Remote references do not have the cross-vendor interoperability requirements that the EJB 2.x Remote view had.
    You can still access Remote EJB references from a different JVM as long as the client has access to SJSAS naming provider. Please see our EJB FAQ for more details :

    I recently installed OS 10.5.8, and have found that I can no longer connect to my server at work. The VPN itself (via PPTP) works fine, it's just that when I try to connect to the remote server (via Connect to Server) I get a dialogue saying 'A volume failed to mount.' A further dialogue says 'Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred. (Error code -6602)'
    Has anyone found a way around this, please? I'm disabled and I need to be able to work from home – without the connection I'm stuffed! Obviously I've tried rebooting the machine etc, but nothing seems to help.
    Thank you for any assistance you can give.
    Kitty.

    For some random reason this connection has begun working again – please ignore the question!

  • Screen Resolution mismatch. Can I force resolution prefs of remote machine?

    Using Apple Remote Desktop, or Timbuktu, I'm connecting to a remote server that does not have a monitor attached.
    Problem: I only have 2 screen resolutions available on the remote machine: 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768.
    My local screen resolution is 2560 x 1600 (using a 30" Cinema Display).
    Question: Can I change the display preferences of the remote machine to give me the same resolution as my local machine? (2560 x 1600)?

    You are running the server in what's been referred to as 'headless' mode, meaning no monitor. Without a monitor installed the video card will default to one of three VESA compatible resolutions, 640X480, 800X600, or 1024X768; because it does not sense any EDID data on the display port.
    You need one of these:
    http://drbott.com/prod/db.lasso?code=0153-GHDD
    which will allow you to set the display resolution on the remote 'headless' unit using the 'Displays' System Preferences panel. You don't even have to reboot the server to make it work, just attach the device and set the resolution to what you want to the limit of the video card's resolution. Settings will be preserved across reboots as the device present the correct EDID data to the video card even with no monitor attached.

  • How to make OTM scripts to run on remote machines

    Hi,
    I came across lot of posts which tells how to configure OTM to connect to remote machines.
    Some how i dont understand when they say stop the OATS service and configure it manually
    Also to use the password for authentication manager.
    What i really want to know is step by step for a layman to set up OTM to run scripts on a remote desktop and on the local with the execution being displayed (not suppressed)
    How do we configure that?
    Any help is deeply appreciated!! my test cases are just stuck inprogress status
    Thanks

    Hi Radhika,
    For running Scripts from either the server or the remote machine using OTM you need to run the Agent Manager service as a console not the OATS service. For that you need to stop that service--> set the startup type as manual--> the run the ' C:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin\AgentManagerService.exe –c AgentManagerService.conf ' command in the CMD to run this service as a console. Because this agent manager service is for OLT to communicate with its agents and works fine even if it is set to automatic or manual and started normally. Hope this helps.....
