Asigning a name to a host without using hosts file

Hi, we have developed a rich client application that connects to a websphere Appserver in order of using ejb. This app is intended to work in different places, connecting to a different Appserver in each place. When the service locator of our client app connects to the appserver to obtain the references to the ejbs, the server returns some kind of URL that contains the name of the machine defined
in the hosts file of the server. The problem is that if this name is not in the host file of the client machine the application crashes because it cannot communicate with the appserver. We have a large number of client machines and we would like to avoid having to modify the host file of every one of them.
Is there a way to tell the application to assign an IP to a hostname at runtime?

I think that you can directly use IP addresses instead of the host names.
If your are in a lan you will be able to use the compulter name of the hosts too.
Also if you get proper DNS setup in your network you will be able to allocate domain names to your hosts and reffer them by their domain name. And the clients will be able to find the hosts through DNS lookup

  • DIM: how to load metadata to Essbase without using rule files

    Hi,
    The Essbase adapter has been installed in the informatica PowerCenter (v8.1.1). We want to create a Essbase target definition to load metadata. In the Table Creation Wizard, we select Table Type: Dynamic dimension building (Type 3), but it needs to specify Rules file in the Column Creation Wizard.
    Any method to load metadata into Essbase without using Rules file?
    Thank you in advance.

    You could load the data into Essbase without Rule file by means of free form loading which the Datasource would be a file.

  • Help! web.xml security without using WAR files

    I'm currently using the RDBMSRealm and URL ACL security for my app. I would like to use the web.xml descriptor for security so that I can specify login pages and such. We currently are not using WAR files. I've been having alot of trouble setting this up. Is there a way to use the RDBMS realm along with the web.xml security? It looks like it should work, but I can't seem to get it to function. How do I specify the regular document root as a webapp? I'm currently running WLS 5.1 with SP4. Thanks.

    The RDBMSRealm is just the authentication mechanism underneath WLS versus the
    web.xml of the WebApplication which describes all the access control for that WebApp.
    the later being scoped only to that WebApp.
    you don't need to deploy in a war file, you can expand the archive into an identical
    directory structure and then just point us towards the top level of that structure.

  • How to create a inputstream without using the file operation

    Hi friends
    In my application, I have to create a Streamsource object using the below constructor:
    public StreamSource(InputStream inputStream)
        Construct a StreamSource from a byte stream. Normally, a stream should be used rather than a reader, so the XML parser can resolve character encoding specified by the XML declaration.
        If this constructor is used to process a stylesheet, normally setSystemId should also be called, so that relative URI references can be resolved.
    Parameters:
        inputStream - A valid InputStream reference to an XML stream.*[http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/xml/transform/stream/StreamSource.html#StreamSource(java.io.InputStream) |http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/xml/transform/stream/StreamSource.html#StreamSource(java.io.InputStream) ]*
    But for creating the inputstream, i am creating a tempory file, ie I am using fileinputstream.
    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.FileInputStream;
    import java.io.StringReader;
    import javax.xml.transform.Source;
    import javax.xml.transform.Transformer;
    import javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory;
    import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;
    import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;
    public class SourceConvertor
        private static Source convertStaxToStream(Source request)
    // here the argument to this method is StaxSource and the return type is StreamSource
            TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
            Transformer transformer = null;
            File fp = null;
            FileInputStream fInp = null;
            try
                transformer = factory.newTransformer();
                fp = new File("tempFile.txt");
                transformer.transform(request, new StreamResult(fp));
                fInp = new FileInputStream(fp);
            } catch (Exception e)
                e.printStackTrace();
            return new StreamSource(fInp);
        public static void main(String args[])
            try
                String message ="<author><name>Rai</name><book>GodOfSmallThings</book></author>";
                Source original = new StreamSource(new StringReader(message));
                Source converted = convertStaxToStream(original);
                TransformerFactory factory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
                Transformer transformer = factory.newTransformer();
                transformer.transform(converted, new StreamResult(System.out));
            catch (Exception e)
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
    This is not at all a good aproach because evey time it is creating a new file.
    So can anyone suggest a better aproach or idea or a simple code snippet so that i can create the inputstream without creating a temporary file.
    Thanks in advance:

    Err, a StreamSource is a Source. Check the Javadoc. You can pass it directly to the transform.

  • How do I copy an iMovie project from one computer to another (without using aliased files)?

    I followed the instructions at http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14745 to copy an event to one library to another.  The added library was accessed through a network share.  A new folder was created in the iMovie Library package, but the media files were all aliases to the media on the original computer.  Is there any way to actually copy the files and not have iMovie just create aliases?

    I think the trick is to 'Considate source media' on the new library.  See:

  • Publishing a site through UAG without using the Portal login

    Good Day -
     I'd like to ask if there is a way to publish access to an internal site through UAG without users having to use the Portal login - say by providing a link -

    Hello,
    The portal app is mandatory even if you not use it, indeed if you delete this app UAG stop to work as expected.
    In order to publish your internal site without going through the portal, in select application select the following options:
    Type: Web
    Web: Other Web Application (application specific hostname)
    With this you could bind a direct DNS name to your publication without using the portal in order to access to it.

  • Export table data in a flat file without using FL

    Hi,
    I am looking for options where I can export table data into a flat file without using FL(File Layout) i.e., by using App Engine only.
    Please share your experience if you did anything as this
    Thanks

    A simple way to export any record (table/view) to an csv fiel, is to create a rowset and loop through all record fields, like below example code
    Local Rowset &RS;
    Local Record &Rec;
    Local File &MYFILE;
    Local string &FileName, &strRecName, &Line, &Seperator, &Value;
    Local number &numRow, &numField;
    &FileName = "c:\temp\test.csv";
    &strRecName = "PSOPRDEFN";
    &Seperator = ";";
    &RS = CreateRowset(@("Record." | &strRecName));
    &RS.Fill();
    &MYFILE = GetFile(&FileName, "W", %FilePath_Absolute);
    If &MYFILE.IsOpen Then
       For &numRow = 1 To &RS.ActiveRowCount
          &Rec = &RS(&numRow).GetRecord(@("RECORD." | &strRecName));
          For &numField = 1 To &Rec.FieldCount
             &Value = String(&Rec.GetField(&numField).Value);
             If &numField = 1 Then
                &Line = &Value;
             Else
                &Line = &Line | &Seperator | &Value;
             End-If;
          End-For;
          &MYFILE.WriteLine(&Line);
       End-For;
    End-If;
    &MYFILE.Close(); You can of course create an application class for generic calling this piece of code.
    Hope it helps.
    Note:
    Do not come complaining to me on performance issues ;)

  • Make nslookup read /etc/hosts file

    Dear,
    OS: OUL5x64
    my nslookup resolve the name thru dns server.
    question :
    how to make nslookup resolves name through /etc/hosts file.
    i do have /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf file
    here is my nsswitch.conf
    /etc/nsswitch.conf
    #hosts: db files nisplus nis dns
    hosts: files
    but it never uses the file to resolve the name.
    how can i force it to read /etc/hosts file first
    Thanks in advance!

    Perhaps it would help to elaborate on WHY you want nslookup to use the /etc/hosts file?
    If you look at the the name of the nslookup utility, it quite probably is an abbreviation of "nameserver lookup". That strongly suggests it is a tool for querying nameservers.
    NOT a tool to debug the name lookups of your operating system.
    On the platforms I use (I don't use HPUX), you can query and set the nameserver nslookup uses. I would consider it a bug if the nslookup tool uses /etc/hosts if set in nsswitch.conf.
    this is how I lookup what server is set for the utility:
    $ nslookup
    serverDefault server: 10.0.1.1
    Address: 10.0.1.1#53this is how nslookup responds to a query:
    nu.nlServer:        10.0.1.1
    Address:     10.0.1.1#53
    Non-authoritative answer:
    Name:     nu.nl
    Address: 62.69.184.53
    Name:     nu.nl
    Address: 62.69.179.198(I don't know how the "jive quote" comes in, it is supposed to be a "bigger than" sign)
