Client machine requires "hosts file" include IP-address of server machine??

Hi. all.
I am using real IP address in tnsnames.ora at client machines.
The client machine(windows)'s hosts file should have ip-address of server machine?
Without hosts file(ip-address of server), tnsping is always OK, but
sqlplus returns error from time to time.
With hosts file(ip-address of server), sqlplus returns no error.
The database is 2-node RAC database on windows2003.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.

If you've got server side load balancing then the clients can get a redirect to one of your RAC nodes when it tries to connect. This redirect will be to a host name (at least thats what I get with our RAC nodes) - so you will definitely need the to be able to resolve the RAC node names. Resolution through the local hosts file or DNS doesn't really matter.

New Plesk Server - Require host file entries

New plesk server being set up and I was told that it "requires host file entries" and to go ahead and set that up. I am at a loss... never been asked to do this before when moving websites to new server. Any help is more than appreciated!!

I agree with you, but apparently that is not the case. Something to do with:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts You can open, edit and save this file with notepad. Create a shortcut on your desktop for easy editing. Don't forget to either comment out the entry or remove it when you want to go to the real site. You should also clear your browser cache each time. You comment out the line by using the "#" sign in front.
This is what the web server administrator sent to me. I was so confused by this, and did not want to seem stupid going back to this person. But I think that is what I will have to do. I will just have to be human and plead my ignorance.
Thanks for your thoughts... they are exactly what I thought they should do.

Time Machine backups of File Shares on OS X Server

I'm running OS X Server on Mavericks 10.9.4. The server itself has 3 drives, the Boot drive, a file-sharing-only drive "Server", and a TimeMachine backup which backs up both drives. Generally it works fine.
However, I've noticed that if a file sharing client edits a file on the Server drive, it seems as if TimeMachine (on the server, not on the client) doesn't "see" the changes and thus won't back up that file.
I have not determined the pattern : some files created or edited by clients ARE backed up by TimeMachine normally. But sometimes the changes are missed.
Anyone else seeing this?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]

10.6.x clients cannot copy image files to 10.4.11 Server

Three clients - 2 MB, 1 MP, all 10.6.x - freeze and must restart finder any time they try to copy any format image file to the 10.4.11 Server. Server is a graphite G4. One client on the network is a G5 running 10.5.8 and can copy the same exact files with no problem.

Past migrations can get pretty messy.
I'm sure the root of your problem lies in your ldapv3 settings; including contacts and searches

Servlet on WL5.1 webserver(machine#1) to ejb on WL5.1 app server (Machine#2)

          Can some tell me why am I unable to communicate with Servlet on one machine with WL5.1 to EJB on the other with WL5.1 and pl. refer the attachment for more details.


It worked, when I made the jar file is the part of WEBLOGIC_CLASSPATH and got rid of it from weblogic.servlet.classpath from my properties file.
          thanks though

Save image file in server machine from client

hai
I am working in swing based applications on linux environment.
I can able to save the image file from java appln to local directories.
My doubt is
how to save that image file in another machine in the same network or in the server machine through java application insead of saving in the local machine.
if anyone can help me to findout the solution?
advance thanks,
Samy.

The file can be read in the weblayer if it is sent as a mutlipart request. So once u have it i the Webserver u can always send it to the app server by posting it in a location which the app server can read using URL api

To save a word/xls document from server machine to client

Hi Folks,
I am facing a problem in storing a document from server to client machine.
I have a document in Oracle database BLOB column and i am able to read and open that document in client browser. But it is stored in the server machine when accessing from the client browser it is opening as a read only copy.
I want to open it as editable copy in client machine and once it is edited i want to save back to the databse. But it can be stored in server or client machine without promting to the user.
Any one can help me?
Senthil

Hi, I am wondering whether this will take time for a document/image which is about 3, 4 MB??? Cos customer has to scan documents one by one and the saving of the file in the DB and then using that to transfer to MSMQ (which is the requirement) should take less time than scanning 2 documents.

Solution Manager 7 EHP1 - Chage Host name and IP Address

Dear All,
I have installed Solution Manager 7 EHP1 (ABAP+JAVA Stack) on Windows 2003 64bit and working fine.
I need to change HOST name and IP Address of the machine.
In SAP where I need to change or reconfig ?
Thanks in advance,
Nirav

Hello Nirav,
first of all: welcome to a big adventure!
There are some configurations you should face and prepare yourself before you change the hostname, or IP-Adress.
1. Be aware of the SMD-Agents. You should activate the Maintenace Mode in Diagnostics just before changing the hostname.
2. Do the changes in ABAP (profile parameters, transport configurations, RFC-connection settings, reorganization of table entries). The systemcopy guide is a good place for informations. Don't forget to recreate the trusted connections to and from the connected managed systems.
3. Do the changes in Java (use system copy guide for informations).
4. Every SMD-Agent in your system landscape must be reconfigured after you change the hostname and did the adjustments in ABAP and Java. Have look into the Diagnostics setup Guide for a detailed information about changing the conection parameters
5. If you are using a central DBACOCKPIT management in SolMan and Oracle, the TNSNAMES entry should be changed.
6. SAP likes to connect to SolMan, so the SAPROUTER entries schould be changed also.
7. Perhaps you are monitoring your system landscape with SAPCCMS Agents, then all agents in your landscape have to be changed in their configurations.
8. I have BI installed within SolMan and got an error page after changeing the hostname. Try this URL to make some corrections:
http://<hostname>:<Port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcsmde2ewa/E2ewaConfig
Changing the hostname of SolMan isn't a small job and done in 60s. I suggest a detailed planning and to make a roadmap of all doings.
Have a lot of fun!

Blocking Ad servers via etc/host file not working

In Snow Leopard I add a list of ad servers and direct them to 127.0.0.1 via the /ect/host file.
I've configured the host file on my mac mini server and it doesn't work.
i just want to block ads when using browsers ON the Mini.
How can I achieve this?

Yeah; that's an old-time Windows and Unix hack.
There are ad-blocking extensions for all major web browsers, and those are easier to manage and maintain.
Off the top, I'd have to check the search order to see if I was getting a response from remote DNS or from /etc/hosts here.
If you're running a Mac OS X Server box, you're hopefully also running DNS services, and if you're running DNS services, then that's going to be where this hackery gets implemented. Add bogus zones. And if DNS gets an answer from its cache, I wouldn't tend to expect it to go read /etc/hosts (for performance reasons), for that matter.
There may well be an ad-blocking DNS server around you can forward queries to, too; I haven't looked for that.
If you make changes to your local /etc/hosts setup, try issuing the following to clear the cache:
dnscacheutil -flushcache
I'd recommend installing an ad-blocker. /etc/hosts is an old-school approach and can end up causing weirdnesses on errors, particularly if your box is (also) a DNS server for your LAN. (Also realize that Apple isn't documenting the /etc/hosts file in the Mac OS X Server 10.6 networking manual.)

Two Machines on Same Modem - One IP address !?!

This isn't actually a Mac question, but all the smart people are here...
I have a cable wireless modem (Linksys) with one (iMac) machine plugged into it via Ethernet, and another (Mac) "attached" via wireless Airport.
When I go to WhatIsMyIP.com (or grc.com, or any other site that detects my IP address) from either machine I see the SAME IP address for both machines.
How can this be? I though addresses were unique. The machines certainly behave as if they were on different addresses - email goes to the right place, &c.

jstackpo,
You are dealing with two things here: The internet as a whole, and the "intranet" that your router creates and manages.
As far as the internet goes, you are correct in the assumption that a single, unique IP address is necessary. However, it is your router, and through the router your entire "intranet," that receives this unique IP address. When the router is powered on, it connects your your ISP's "DHCP" server to request an IP address. When granted, this becomes your "public" IP address, and it is assigned directly to your router. The router then uses a protocol called "Network Address Translation" (NAT) to share that single IP address between all of the connected computers. How does it know to send some information to one computer, and something else to a second computer? Without getting long-winded about it, it knows this the same way your computer knows to send a song you may be downloading from the iTunes store to iTunes, while at the same time sending a Youtube video to Safari.
You can think of your own network (your "intranet") as a mini internet, in that all the computers within it must have unique IP addresses. This same principal applies to your router, as it is seen from other computers on that network. Typically, routers use the IP address range of "192.168.x.x" for the entire network, but there are many choices an administrator can make is this regard. In creating this "private" network, the router acts as a DHCP server in it own right, granting these internal IP addresses as machines connect to the network and request them (just as the router does when it connects to your ISP's DHCP server).
So yes, there are at least three IP addresses involved: 1) Your "public" IP address, requested by your router and granted by your ISP's DHCP server, which applies to your router, and through it every other machine on your network (as they are seen by the internet at large). 2) Your router's self-assigned "private" IP address, as seen by every computer on your network. 3) The additional "private" IP addresses given to the various computers on your network, assigned by your router via its own DHCP server.

Change of ipaddress in http server machine

Hi,
I have this http server running on a linux machine and hitting oracle 10.2.0 database on a separate linux machine.
now we had to move the http server machine to a different domain in the DMZ, to allow outside world to hit the http server and through the http server be able to view data stored in the database which is secured internally through htmldb.
now since i have changed the ip address of the http server machine. is there any place in any configuration file where i need to change the settings for the http server to pickup the new ipaddress of the machine.
Please let me know what i shoud do. and i am open to any suggestions.
Thanks,
Philip.

I would suggest to stop creating new thread. Instead post your reply on the old thread and close this one. This will help for better track of solution.

Ipv6 lookback address in hosts file

Hi,
After enabling IPv6 on the Solaris server and rebooting the machine we see that Ipv6 loopback address (::1) is added as the first entry above Ipv4 loopback address. Is there a way to force adding Ipv6 loopback address as the last enty in the /etc/hosts file?
Regards
-murali

My Solaris 10 U8 10/09 box doesn't have IPv6 enabled but has that entry too. Loopback addresses have historically been the first listed in this file. Changing the behavior would mean changing the code somehow. I don't know of a way to do this For what reason do you need the IPv6 loopback at the end of this file?

Blob processing varies between databases; see also examples for whatever database you are using, e.g.
http://www.google.com/search?q=jdbc+blob+oracle
If you are storing text data instead of binary data, replace "blob" by "clob" in the searches.

Client machine requires "hosts file" include IP-address of server machine??
