BEA newbie needs help configuring nodemanager

Hi all -
I am working through my first install of WLS and am already running into an issue starting my nodemanager :_| I have an environment with 3 machines. One is just for the adminServer for my domain, the other 2 each have 1 application server defined on them, each part of the same cluster.
I am able to start my adminServer all right, and I configured the machines hosting the managed servers with the DNS name and port of the nodemanager.
Next, I logged into one of the machines housing the managed servers and tried to start the node manager with the startNodeManager.sh script and received the following output in the nodemanager log.
<Jan 29, 2008 2:44:15 PM> <INFO> <Loading domains file: /opt/bea922/weblogic92/common/nodemanager/nodemanager.domains>

        at weblogic.NodeManager.main(NodeManager.java:31)I'm sure I missed something glaringly obvious, but I've been looking at it for a while now and can't seem to figure it out.
Is there something else I need to do in order to configure my node manager for these machines?

MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing wirelessly to XP shared printer

MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing to XP shared printer
Bear with me please. I read tons of articles on this but somehow as a newbie to MAC (girlfriends sick daughter), I am missing something. 10.5.2
Currently, she can print directly if we plug in the HP Deskjet printer directly via USB to the MACBook. No problem.
When we first got the MACBOOK I tried setting up the MACBOOK wirelessly to recognize the workgroup where the printer was attached via USB to the Windows XP PC. However it printed out garbage since I did not know there was a difference between XP printing and MAC (Gutenberg/gimp printing/drivers).
Now I know there is a difference.
But in reading various instructions, I no longer can find how to connect the MAC to the Windows workgroup. Note we do have a printer set up currently as USB-HP Deskjet on the Macbook (not sure I need to delete it yet).
I went to System Preferences on MACBOOK and clicked on printers, more printers. In the drop down box was CANON, APPLETALK, IP HP printing and Firewire. There was no WINDOWS selection as I saw in other online web instructions.
So not sure how to proceed to find a way to:
1. Connect to Windows workgroup (click on what exactly), step by step please!!
2. Add correct HP Deskjet 5490 printer (perhaps there is one with Gutenberg or perhaps I need Gutenprint-really not sure what I am talking about)
Thanks so much in advance. Fiancé's kid has had her cancer recur in a different place and someone was nice enough to buy her a MACBOOK as a gift.
Sincerely
Peter

OK...I figured it out...no need to reply. I noticed that there was another Protocol to use to set up the printer on the Mac, I was using LPD, so I switched it to HP Jet Direct-socket, and it prints fine...thanks. I am curious as to why LPD wouldn't work; if anyone has that answer I would like to know...thanks
Any chance of posting the Protocol you used to connect to your printer with your laptop? I'm have the exact same problem printing from my MB. Same error message "..is busy".

I need help configuring three products: WRVS4400N, WAG325N and WVC200

Hello,
I want your help in three linksys products as mentioned below:
WAG325N ADSL2+ Router
WVC200 PTZ CAMERA
WRVS4400N VPN Router
The computer connections and configuration of above linksys products which I am working with and which are connected with the above three linksys products at present are as follows:
1) I have one server and one laptop.
2) Laptop has two wireless adapters which I use to connect to the routers.
3) The server is connected to the WRVS4400N Router through one of the four ethernet ports mentioned on backside of the WRVS4400N Router. The DHCP of this router is disabled by me and the router's default IP 192.168.1.1 was changed to 192.168.1.12
4) The WRVS4400N router is connected to the Wag325N router for internet access to the server and server is connected to WRVS4400N Router as mentioned in point number 3 above.
5) The WAG325N router is setup as per the instructions mentioned that came with the CD of this router. The only change that I have modified is the router's default IP. I have changed the default IP of WAG325N from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.13 and DHCP is enabled on this router.
The help that I want is step by step as follows:
1) I want to configure the both routers in such a way so that I can access them from anywhere across the world i.e. remotely using internet.
2) I have WVC200 Camera which I setup according to instructions mentioned in the CD and also configured the DDNS service. But when the " RJ45 Cable is connected " to my WAG325N router and Camera, then only the camera works properly. What I want is that after the setup is completed, I want to remove the RJ45 Cable connected from my camera to router and use the camera wirelessly from any location within the range of my above mentioned WAG325N router. I need flexibility to use my camera without cable connections from any location and any rooms of my house. I also configured the port forwarding and DDNS properly. The only problem is that if I remove the Cable after the setup of camera is finished, then the camera access is not working on LAN or internet(through DDNS). Whereas the same works on LAN and internet using the DDNS service, when the cable is physically connected to the WAG325N router. Also I want one more thing additionally other then this. I want to use this camera wirelessly by configuring the port forwarding options on both routers at a same time(i.e. simultaneously at once on WRVS4400N and WAG325N).
3) Now as two DHCP cannot work at a same time and as my routers are connected with each other, So I have disabled the DHCP on WRVS4400N. Here I need help so that DHCP can be enabled on both at a same time. Because if the DHCP is not enabled on WRVS4400N then I have to give IP to the server which is connected with server. If I enable the DHCP then there are two DHCP's at a same time on same network and thus problems occurs in internet access to the server. So, what should I do in such a way so that I do not have to give any IP to my server and set it to automatic.
4) This question is just for my knowledge so that I can use the above mentioned linksys purchases upto full extent possible in future. I want to know what is VPN and how is it usefull? What is the difference between VPN and VPN tunnel? How can VPN be used to access all my network resources connected with my server in the above situation where my server is connected to WRVS4400N which in turn is connected to WAG325N?
Thanks !
Sincerely

Ahmedabad, India.

for question number 1:
you said that your main router is WAG325N, for you to remotely access the 2nd router is for you to forward the IP addr [192.168.1.12] on your first router and change its management port of your second router that is located on either the security tab or the administration tab on its User Interface
to access your first router open and Internet Explorer and enter
http://[public IP addr]:[management port]
the PUBLIC IP or INTERNET IP is located on the status page of your router
to access your second router just change the management port to
ex.
http://66.77.88.99:8080 first router
http://66.77.88.99:8081 second router
for question number 2:
make sure that you have configured all wireless settings on both your camera and your main router WAG235N, once done save settings and power down your camera and power it back up.
for question number 3:
for you to enable DHCP on both routers your connection can go like so...
from a regular port of your main router going to the INTERNET port of your second router [this way you can enable DHCP on both routers]. INTERNET is no problem, your cesond router will be able to get connection
for question number 4:
VPN - Virtual Private Network
VPN tunnel -is/are connections from router to router [gateway to gateway]
VPN is used to connect a diff network on a diff location for you to have access to the shared filed [it is like a file sharing through the internet]
for you to be able to use VPN tunnel you have to connect to a different VPN router on a diff location. In that way you can get access to the other network

Metro Ethernet newbie needs help

Need to configure new 15 site Metro Ethernet network with this physical topology:
x=x=x=x=x=x=x=x
|oooooooooooooo|
X====X-X==x==X
|oooooooooooooo|
x======x======x
x=7604, X=7606
= 2x 10Gb Ethernet
- 2x 1Gb Ethernet
This network will provide metro ethernet services to several customers, but for now we only have one ME-3400G-2CS switch on each site.
I've been reading about Metro Ethernet and MPLS technology for a few days now and I still don't have any clue how I'm going to put all this working together. Can anyone help me?

As a metro Ethernet solution for service providers Cisco has launched a new product âCisco ME 6524 Ethernet Switchâ which is optimized for service provider locations where space and power are at a premium, this 1.5-rack-unit device cost-effectively meets the stringent performance, reliability, and quality of service (QoS) requirements of triple play and VPN services. It enables Gigabit Ethernet access for fiber and copper deployments.

Need help configuring VPN on RV120W Router (WiTopia VPN)

Hello Cisco Community,
I need some help configuring a VPN from WiTopia on my RV120W router. I am trying to make it so that if any device connects to the router it can automatically connect to the VPN from WiTopia.
Please note that the VPN plan includes PPTP, L2TP, & IPSEC VPN types.
Is this possible? And if so, how?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
If WiTopia is providing only client to gateway VPN, where WiTopia is the gateway allowing connections to clients, than you will not be able to configure RV120 to connect to it. RV120 in its VPN configurations cannot be configured to be a client.
The only tunnel where can play the role of the connecting part is IPSec gateway to gateway, when in the IKE policy the Direction type is Initiator and the Exchange mode is Aggressive. And you will need to receive all additional configuration parameters from WiTopia -the Encryption, Authentication Algorithm, PFS, SA lifetime and so on. But this means that WiTopia have to provide gateway to gateway VPN connection.

Kremena

I need help configuring a connection with asdm 5.2 for asa

Hi All
I am very much a novice with asdm 5.2 for asa and I urgently need to configure a connection but don’t know how to. I have 2 domains at work and someone is trying to connect their sql client from their pc in one domain to the sql server in the other domain (DMZ).
When he tries to connect he gets the error
Cant connect to MySql Server at "IP Address" (10060)
He is trying to connect on port 3306. Could anyone please give me any tips on how i can resolve this quickly? I know i am
trying a shortcut on this one but I recently started a new job and thrown in the deep end here and need to learn this asdm 5.2 for asa product from scratch with nothing more than the manual that come with the cd . My Cisco knowledge is from 2001 when i did half of a ccna course.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
I'm not a security specialist but here is how I had it set up at home:
Essentially a NAT and a rule forwarding the port are needed. In this particular case I had an Oracle server running and a person requested remote access. So, for example, the source address was his external IP and the destination was the Oracle's external IP. For the NAT the source was the internal IP of the Oracle server and the interface was Outside.
Hope this points you in the right direction.

Newbie needs help with Flex app

Hi there. I am very new to Flex and also fairly new to
programming although I do have a little experience.
I am trying to create an app which stores code snippets or
common text I tend to use every day in my documents and emails.
So basically I need help on a design level. I can refer to
the developer's manual for exact instructions for commands, but I
need to know what to code first.
The app will consist of:
-a tree directory structure where I can create groups.
-There will be a basic text editor where I input all my data,
basic text formatting options (font, bullets etc) would be a bonus.
-A search function
-Finally it will ideally allow multiple client apps write to
a central database file over a network
Can anyone suggest how I should approach such a project?
Or are there any tutorials / source files which demonstrate
each bullet point?
thanks.

Hey jono,
I'm new too. But I think I might know the right components.
If you google any of these + flex 3 you should get some
decent documentation
tree - advanced dataGrid component
basic text editor - rich text editor component
search function - well, you're gonna need to read up on
arrays, and arraycollection. Once you get that stuff working, you
can write up a function to search for a string in an array.
network functionality - HTTPService, you can dump the
datagrid into a database, and have it load the database when you
open up the application.
Give these things a shot, tutorials / sources will come with
the google searches.

Newbie needs help comprehending CSS Password Manager functions

Hello All:
I own a TP W500 4062-27U running Windows 7 Ultimate. The computer is trouble-free.
I am seeking a solution to the following need: An application that will securely remember my passwords for various websites, etc. and enable me to log in using the fingerprint reader or similar.
I am aware that Lenovo provides both Fingerprint Reader software and Client Security Solution software, but I don't know whether or not either one (or both) of these applications will provide the functionality I am seeking. I have spent a fair bit of time looking around the Lenovo website, but cannot find a document that describes (in a general, overview manner) the functionality that CSS provides.
I don't need to log into VPNs, or company networks, or anything really fancy like that - I just need something that will enable me to log into about 20 different websites, using a different password for each website. Right now, I'm generally using the same password for every website (that way, I can remember what it is), and as I think you will agree, that is probably not a very good practice so far as security is concerned.
If anyone could point me towards a document that explains how I can get CSS to do what I want it to do, I would be very grateful. If CSS does not have the functionality I am seeking, I would very much appreciate a recommendation of software - possibly non-Lenovo - that does provide the functionality I am seeking.
Thanks very much for your assistance.
Michael

Hi PanEuropean2,
Welcome to Lenovo Forum!
In regard to your question, Client Security Solution (CSS) should be the right fit for you.
I have a T410 with Win 7, and have several passwords to remember which is really killing me. However, by using CSS, Fingerprint software and Password Manager, I need to enter all the passwords only once when access a website or a tool, and let it saved in CSS.
The next time i turn on the machine and open up a website which needs user ID and password, I just need to swipe the fingerprint that I've enrolled, then viola!
Just take note that after the first swipe of fingerprint, tools or website that are to be accessed later will automatically show the password in the box directly without having to swipe fingerprint again. You just need to click to log in. I"m not sure if this is the experience you're looking for, however, no harm to give it a try.
Here's the user guide for CSS. It has
Client Security Solution components
Client Security Solution installation considerations

Hope this helps

DVD Studio Pro Newbie Needs Help!

I have a presentation deadline approaching and I need help desperately. I created my presentation using Keynote 3 (800*600 slides) and exported it to a Quicktime movie using H.264 compression at 29.97 fps (high quality settings). I then proceeded to use iDVD 6 and imported the Quicktime movie and created a simple menu using the templates provided.
I saved the entire project as a disk image and used the DVD player to check the disk image file. The quality of the DVD disk image file looked nothing like the original Quicktime movie. The images and text looked blurry and unprofessional.
I've spend quite some time on the iDVD and Keynote discussion forums and can't find a solution to my problem. The conclusion I've come is that the mpeg-2 encoder that iDVD 6 uses is problematic.
I don't want to start using DVD Studio Pro but I will in order to preserve the quality of my original Keynote presentation. So here are my questions...thank you in advance for your help guys....I really need it:
- I plan on playing the DVD on a 42" Plasma display at a sales office and also distributing it to potential buyers. Are my Keynote export settings optimal for iDVD use? Should I be using H.264 @ 29.97?
- If I must use DVDSP then what export/compression settings should I use in Keynote to preserve the quality? Keynote doesn't give me an option to use mpeg-2. I have ffmpegX so I can encode different formats...just need to know the correct one.
- Keynote exports separate audio and video files. I combined them using Quicktime. Is it possible to use the combined file in DVDSP or do they need to be separate.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you have any reading material pertaining to this matter please provide link.

PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

You can use a mov file that contains both audio and video. DVD Studio Pro will compress the mov itself. I am not overly familiar with the codec H.264 but either way its a codec that compresses the video, and if I am right that codec is used for compressing video to web based file sizes, which means heavy compression. When I create DVD material I use M2V format which is what DVD SP wants anyways so it cuts time and drive space in half. If you export an mov and import it into DVD SP, DVD SP compresses the file again which is M2V. Now you have two files, with twice the compression time. When creating M2V the only thing that you need o be aware of is the bit rate, which needs to be adjusted pending the duration of the video. Use 29.97 if you are NTSC and full frame rate, which you should be.
If you can not create an M2V file with associated aiff audio file, than export your QT file as uncompressed or as a QT Movie. The file itself will be huge but DVD SP will compress it properly.
I hope this helps

Newbie needs help with browser compatibility

Ok, so I'm new at this, so this may be something really
simple, but browser compatibility? I made a site in DW;html and it
shows up perfect in safari but internet explorer and firefox not so
much. I did a browser compatibility test in DW and it says nothing
is wrong with my pages, but obviously something must be!!
On my home page, the image of a house that I have next to the
company name shows up fine in safari but not any other browsers.
And my page layout, everything is moved over funny in other
browsers. Also there are link boxes around the table I created with
different brands of products. On safari the boxes do not show, but
all the other browsers it does!! I'm new at this and frustrated!!!
Need help!!
The link is holmeshifi.com and I posted code from the home
page!

OK thanks Ned sorry to soo dumb I'm on a learning curve here! what
I'm trying to do is go to the URLs of web galleries of images from my
main site
so I would presumably have to rename them on my server? i.e. does that
mean adding the code ", "_blank");
to the files on the server?
At the moment I have to use the back button on my browser window which
takes me back to the main site which then has to reload (tediously!)

Newbie Needs Help - Moving to CD

I'm running winXP and have downloaded the latest CS 5.5 version of Dreamweaver - I've created a small series of interlinking web pages with the 'main site' being a folder on my Desktop called Testsite. As far as I'm aware all the relevant pages/documets/images are contaned within my Desktop folder and everything runs from index.html which sits within my testsite folder. Ultimately, I would like to be able put a CD in a drive and automatically launch a browser that would open my home page (i.e. index.html). I need help on all this but I will googe for the auto launch bit - at the moment I would appreciate any advice on burnng my site to a CD. Because I have created the site on my PC I'm assuming all my dreamweaver internals/links are in the form C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\Testsite - so I'm guessing if I just copy my Desktop Testsite folder to a CD and run index.html on another PC my little web site is not going to work. I have googled but keep getting pages about running the actual Dreamweaver applicaton from a CD and installing it on a PC - not the way I want to do it. I'm not interested in moving Dreamweaver to a CD - just the site/pages I have created. Any advice apprecited.

All long as all of your files are linked with relative links (eg: /path/to/file.jpg and not http://www.domain.com/path/to/file.jpg) you should be fine. Auto-starting can be an issue because there are some operating systems that don't auto start discs. So you should maybe include instructions with your disc in case the autorun does not work.

Need help configuring Aiport Extreme A1034 to optimize network signal.

Greetings, I am a very loyal mac user from back in the days of the Quadra 650. I have torn apart and fixed most macs for the last 13, but I must say configuring this wireless network has got me stumped. Any help would be gladly appreciated.
I went from a ibook 1 Ghz with a plastic case to a aluminum powerbook g4 1.67 to find out that the metal case greatly diminished the computers ability to receive a wifi signal from my Rv park. I then decided to buy an Airport Extreme A1034 that has the antenna port and then bought a Hawking 15db directional antenna. My intention was to have the Airport Base station receive the 802.11b wifi signal sent out from the office of the RV park through the Hawking antenna, and then have the base station take that signal it received and send that high speed wifi signal to the airport card in my Powerbook G4. Sounds simple enough, I thought it would be. I have found that using Airport set up assistant doesn't give me that option. I then proceeded to get into the workings of the Airport Admin Utility. I have found myself ready to pull my hair out trying to configure the 6 different tabs being, Airport , Internet, Network, Port Mapping, Access control, and WDS.
I do know that everything in the Airport tab is correct. The big problem I think is between the Internet, Network and WDS tabs. It seems that the Airport base station was basically made to have a high speed connection plugged into it via ethernet and then the base station broadcasts to host computers such as my PowerBook G4. My initial thought was to connect via Airport WDS in the internet tab and then set my powerbook to connect directly to the base station through the airport card. I read up on this via Apples Designing Airport networks that came on the Airport installation CD. It talked in detail about setting up the WDS tab to do something like I want but it still involves a hard wired ethernet connection at the start of it. I have also played around extensively with the Network control panel and the sharing control panel , I thought about turning the airport card inside my powerbook into a software or virtual base station and then try some sort of WDS relay. Through all this I had the Airport extreme go none responsive on me and not letting me log in. That's another story of 10 hours of **** fixing it, but i did. Even the reset button stopped working for a while. As of now I can access everything everywhere. I also have ALL the IP addresses Hardware(MAC) address, subnet masks and router addresses for every location in this proposed wireless chain. I just need someone to end this stressful nightmare. They say you learn through trial and error, that is how I learned most of my computer skills over the decades, that and Applecare certified tech training many years ago, But it doesn't help anyone if I stick a large knife through my base station. I can provide a phone number if your willing to call. My email is [email protected] . If your in the San Diego area, I can get ya free passes to the nudist colony where I live, if your in for a new adventure in turn for setting up this network for me. Check out http://www.deanzasprings.com . its where I live.

1. First, can someone confirm that the Extreme card be used as a WDS main base?
Sorry, but no you cannot use the AirPort Extreme card in a WDS as either a main, relay or remote base station. It does not support this function.

My U-verse wireless gateway is in the back of our house. We live in an old 1920's home with solid wood walls. For our macbooks, we get a pretty decent signal, but my wife's iPad 2 get's poor wi-fi speeds. I bought a Cisco/Linksys WRT160N wireless N broadband router. I have a wired connection in my living room (going to a 4 port switch) then connected to my DVR. I tried hooking up the new router but ended up getting no signal on the iPad. In fact, it caused other issues. I ended up disconnecting it and re-booting my gateway. All came back fine. This wireless router replaces a similar unit that went out in after a power failure, so I know this can be done, but I forget exactly how I confiured the old one. I would like it to "extend" my signal to the living room, but I am also willing to create a new network (different SSID). Do I need to turn of DHCP? Are there any web sites that can assist me in configuring the router? I wish I didn't have to deal with this. The signal from the RG is great when you are in the back room (20+ down). But my wife gets about 3 down on her iPad in the living room. Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
I was doing some research on how this can be done. It does not appear there is an option in the Cisco router to set it up as an access point, but there are several options you can do to extend your network.
The first thing you can do is just set it up as a router behind router setup, and you will just have two separate networks. Make sure the DHCP pool does not conflict with the U-verse's gateway of 192.168.1.x.
The second thing you can do is connect the Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports on your Cisco router instead of using the internet port. This should make it work like a smart switch.
With both setups, you want to probably change the SSID, network key, and wireless security settings to the same thing for wireless roaming abilities. That way, anyone that configures their wireless connection will be connected to both networks. Just make sure the wireless channels are not the same, and I would suggest having them at least 5 apart.
Hope this helps.
