Connecting from Windows

I have set up a database on Linux that I want to be able to connect from a windows box using SQLPlus or anything similar. I have run the netassistant and made the profile only accept TNSNAMES connections. I then created a net service name using the wizard. I then created a listener and saved the configuration. I looked at tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora, and listener.ora and they all looked correct. I start the listener and it starts fine but without any services which according to ORACLE you don't need to set any up, the database will dynamically register itself with the listener. I can telnet to the linux box fine. If I do a tnsping on the linux box to the services name the I want the listener responds. When I try to log in using SQLPlus 8.0 from windows I always get a TNS error that it could not resolve the service. Am I missing something along the way. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Can you give me some help with setting up tnsnames.ora and listener.ora?

    When i connect it on 64 Bit machine printer requesting driver *.inf and not specific file...
    i try to install 64bit driver on 32 bit machine in sharing options and they didn't support it...

    More than likely, you are receiving the access denied error because there may not be a HomeGroup in place.
    To handle networks securely with Windows 7, Microsoft took a different approach.  A HomeGroup essentially creates a trust among all the devices in that home group.  If a device is not in that homegroup, then that system will essentially be denied access.

  • Errors connecting from windows

    i try and connect from windows and it gives me this:
    [2006/10/24 21:39:25, 0] pdbods.c:odssamgetsampwnam(2327)
    odssam_getsampwnam: [0]getsam_recordattributes dsRecTypeStandard:Users no account for 'XXXX'!
    funny thing is, if i connect using ADMIN and enter propper password, it works fine
    it seems windows is trying to autofill the username (that is logged into windows) in the XXX field, and it doesn't match the server's account name.
    thanks in advance!!

    We're having something similar to this where Entourage users are apparently handing off the incorrect user name and password and thereby disabling their Apple user account on our mail/webmail OSX server.
    I don't know how to stop the accounts from being disabled, nor do I know when the user has been automatically disabled by the server. We only know when the customer contacts us (which can't be by email).
    This has already cost us some accounts and business.
    Users who are not Windows or who are not using Entourage are having no problem. Since the problem also happens with Mac Entourage users, it may have more to do with Entourage than Windows.
    Anyone know how to set the authentification of OSX or Entourage to be more friendly?

  • Remote desktop connection from windows computer to TC

    hi all,
    what I have: I have a TC 2TB, bought it three months ago.
    what I did: I have set it up at home. Using as base station for all my devices, iphone 4, ipad 2, macbook air and also other laptop. My TC is connected to ADSL modem with an ethernet cable (as expected). with port forwarding option of ADSL modem (in NAT Properties), I managed to forward any connection to TC. I have a static IP by the way.
    what I can do: from work or anywhere else other than my home network, I can connect to my static IP (via "Connect to Server" option in any mac device), it pops up a user name and password window, I login with my TC user name and decive password. In an instant my TC disk is mounted on my desktop, and I can reach all my files in it as if it is an external hard disk.
    what I cannot do: from a windows computer outside my network, I cannot connect to TC. I try to do this through "Remote Desktop Connection". Is this possible? If so how? Is this a problem related to network connection or TC settings?
    aakibar

    You cannot remote desktop into a TC..
    In fact you cannot remote access a TC from windows.. sorry.. but SMB protocol is blocked on the internet.. there are work arounds but no security.. don't do it.
    The only other protocol the TC offers is AFP.. there is no AFP file access software available for windows. You need to use a Mac.
    The best alternative is vpn.. replace your current adsl modem router with a vpn one.. eg draytek.. then you can access your home network. Since I presume when you say you have static ip you mean public IP then vpn is easy (well once setup it is).. reliable and secure.

    Hello Rense,
    There are many tutorials/online documentation available which can guide you as how to connect to a SQL Azure DB from your application. I'm providing you some basic as well as how to articles which you can go through.

    Hmm, when you use Finder->Go->Connect to Server (or apple-k), and type smb://1.2.3.4/Share, you aren't asked for a username and password? Could be that your keychains is supplying them, and perhaps that part of the problem. Can you delete your keychain credentials so that you are forced to enter a username and password? When you are asked for a username, use your "short name".

  • Errors using ICertView connection from Windows 7 to Server 2003 SP1

    Hello!
    I have a RootCA on windows server 2003 SP1. I connect to certificate store remotely using ICertView interface from Certadm.dll to retrieve issued certificates. This scheme works fine from windows XP, but when I call method openconnection (no matter which
    way: from powershell, certutil, from code directly) I get following errors: 
    1. from host not in AD domain  "CCertView::OpenConnection No more data available. 0x80070103 (WIN32/HTTP: 259)" 
    2. from AD domain joined host error is "0x800704C7 The operation was canceled by the user."
    However, ICertAdmin interface works on Windows 7 without any problems.
    Someone tells me that few years ago hi had checked this scheme and it`s worked! 
    after this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892500 I have a suspicion thah installed SP1 broke DCOM permissions. I configure permissions on COM host according to this article but connection won`t work... 
    On Windows 7 I have used 2 versions of certadm.dll - native windows 7 and from Server2003 - all the same :( 
    Can somebody help me make this work or explain why it is impossible?
    Best regards.

  • Problem connecting from Windows XP to 10.4.7 server.

    I have an old G4 tower running as a server. I had OS Xserver 10.3.x running on a single disk in this machine. Everything worked fine.
    I then inserted a mirrored disk pair in the machine and installed OS X server 10.4.7. The machine is set up as a standalone server.
    When connecting from a Mac I can use both AFP and SMB to connect to the fileservices.
    But when trying to connect to the fileservices using smb from Windows XP machines only a few of them can actually see the server in Network Neighbourhood. And none of them seems to be able to connect.
    I can though ping the servers IP from the Window machines.
    Do you have any Ideas that could help me solve this problem?
    TIA
    Hans

    I also have a problem with people unable to connect via FTP from Windows.
    My computer is set up as a Standalone Server. When I click the Windows button in Workgroup Manager for a user, the dialog says:
    "Only a user with a password type 'Open Directory' may have a WIndows profile or home directory. You can change the user's password type on the Advanced tab."
    But the Advanced tab only offers one password type: Shadow Password.
    Note that this WAS working correctly for some time. I updated to Server 10.4.4 a while back. I don't think my single Windows user has accessed since the update. I'm trying add a new Windows user now and he can't connect because of this problem.
    Please point me to a document to help me correctly configure this.

  • Using IPSec to connect from Windows 2012 to a Sonicwall

    In order to establish an IPSec connect from a Windows 2012 Server to a SonicWall, you must first connect to the sonic wall via L2TP or PPTP? 
    Can someone confirm this is correct?
    Thanks. 

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    As per my research, generally when we are implementing IPsec connection we use PPTP as a connection method. PPTP, L2TP, and SSTP depend heavily on the features originally specified for Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). PPP was designed to send data across dial-up
    or dedicated point-to-point connections. For IP, PPP encapsulates IP packets within PPP frames and then transmits the encapsulated PPP-packets across a point-to-point link. PPP was originally defined as the protocol to use between a dial-up client and a network
    access server.

  • Connect from windows vista ultimate to oracle 8i

    Hello,
    I need connect oracle 8i from windows vista ultimate, how to make this
    thanks for all
    i am spanish, sorry for my expresion

    I too have a problem with Oracle 8 and Vista (Business). We have many different Oracle platforms administered by many different agencies. One platform is 10g insisting encrypted ODBC connection and the other is 8.x that cannot handle encrypted requests. In the past we just ran 2 or more versions of Oracle client and associated the version's ODBC to the Oracle platform's version. But with Vista there are no 8.x or 9.x Vista compatible clients thus I can only have the Vista machine to connect to one and not the other. There are problems when trying to use a Windows 2000 or XP client versions in Vista.
    Anyone have a work around? When I try to change the SQL.ORA on a Vista 10g client to a 8.x db to use "REQUESTED" instead of "REQUIRED" encryption call I get the [Oracle][ODBC] Ora-03134: Connection to this server version no longer support.

  • VPN - IPX error 733 when connecting from Windows XP

    I have a 10.4.8 (Intel) OS X Server at our office.

  • Loss of internet connection from windows side of imac duo core

    I have cable modem as internet hookup. When I am in Mac I have no problems, but every time I either change to the Windows side, or the computer is turned off or goes off, when Windows comes up, I can't access the internet.
    I have gone into control panel and it states that the cable modem is unplugged or not connected. I then have to literally unplug the cable from the computer, wait a few seconds and then plug it back in.
    This has been going on several months and started after I had a cable issue at the house and the cable guys came out and fixed it. they changed some things on my computer.
    I think something on the MAC side was actually changed and that is impacting the windows side.
    Prior to that I could access the internet from either side w/no problem.
    Now, even if I unplug the cable and then plug it in, the computer is not recognizing that the cable is plugged in. As you can see, I am still having NO problem w/the MAC side.
    Any ideas what command or default setting might have been changed to impact the Windows side in this fashion. thanks

    what is the firmware version on the router?? try reducing MTU to 1452...let me know if you have any issues will get back to you.
    thanks

  • Can't Print/Connect from Windows 7 to Shared PSC 1315 on XP Machine

    I have an HP PSC 1315 connected to a Windows XP (32 bit) machine.  This printer is shared.  I can access it from other XP machines on my home network.  I cannot access it from my Windows 7 (64 bit) machine.  I can see the printer is shared on the machine, but when I double click on it, I get the following error:
    "Windows can't find a driver for hp spc 1310 series on the network.  To locate one manually, click OK.  Otherwise, click Cancel and consult your network administrator or the printer manufacturer's website."
    So I tried downloading the Windows 7 (64 bit) driver from HP and installed it on my Windows 7 machine:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-75052-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=ca&...
    At the end of the install, it asks to connect the printer to the computer through USB.  Since I'm not physically connecting the printer to the Windows 7 machine, I check the box that says I can't connect to it right now and proceed to finish.
    I then tried to connect to the printer and I get the same error.  I try locating a driver manually.  I point to c:\windows\inf\ with no success (I'm *assuming* the driver info would get installed there, though I don't know what the .inf name is).  Windows says it can't find a suitable driver.  Possibly I should be looking for it elsewhere?
    I found some troubleshooting utility on HP's website, but it doesn't give "shared printer over a network" as one of the connection schemes to troubleshoot.
     I'm kinda stumped on this one.  Hoping it's going to be something simple I missed.
    Thanks!

    I have an HP PSC 1315 connected to a Windows XP (32 bit) machine.  This printer is shared.  I can access it from other XP machines on my home network.  I cannot access it from my Windows 7 (64 bit) machine.  I can see the printer is shared on the machine, but when I double click on it, I get the following error:
    "Windows can't find a driver for hp spc 1310 series on the network.  To locate one manually, click OK.  Otherwise, click Cancel and consult your network administrator or the printer manufacturer's website."
    So I tried downloading the Windows 7 (64 bit) driver from HP and installed it on my Windows 7 machine:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=al-75052-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=ca&...
    At the end of the install, it asks to connect the printer to the computer through USB.  Since I'm not physically connecting the printer to the Windows 7 machine, I check the box that says I can't connect to it right now and proceed to finish.
    I then tried to connect to the printer and I get the same error.  I try locating a driver manually.  I point to c:\windows\inf\ with no success (I'm *assuming* the driver info would get installed there, though I don't know what the .inf name is).  Windows says it can't find a suitable driver.  Possibly I should be looking for it elsewhere?
    I found some troubleshooting utility on HP's website, but it doesn't give "shared printer over a network" as one of the connection schemes to troubleshoot.
     I'm kinda stumped on this one.  Hoping it's going to be something simple I missed.
    Thanks!
    Here is a nice explanation of how to share a printer from an XP PC to a Windows 7 PC on a home network.  This should work since the Windows 7 (64-bit) PC can see the Windows XP 32-bit partition.  What you missed was the type of port to use for the networking connection.

  • Connect from Windows through screen sharing (VNC) and get out of full screen mode

    How do you get out of fullscreen mode?
    I connect to a OS X Lion computer through a Windows computer (which actually also is remote).
    I use TightVNC software on Windows to connect. It's the only VNC software I am able to connect to OS X Lion with. TightVNC is kind of weak otherwise in the way that it does not have features for OS X targets - like you can't send "command" key pushes, or even Ctrl pushes and other F2 etc keys just don't really work.
    Which means I cannot exit full screened apps by way of Command-F or similar. Moving the mouse cursor to the top of the screen also does not pop down the menu (although on some occasions I have been able to do this, I'm not sure how and it's terribly hard to reproduce).
    I'd need a on-screen way (like a button to click) to get out of full screen mode.
    Any ideas???

    Are you using TightVNC because you found it was the only VNC client that worked well with Mac OS X built-in VNC server?  Or is there another reason?
    Vine Server (aka OSXvnc - free to use the server)
    <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/11283/vine-server-%26-viewer>
    plays nicer with 3rd party VNC clients, so that you could try any number of other WIndows VNC clients.  Maybe one of those will do a better job of sending Command/Control/Option keys.
    But if you do install Vine server make sure you turn off Mac OS X Screen Sharing (and/or Remote Managment) so that you do not conflict with port 5900.  Or via Vine Server configs, tell Vine Server to use a different port number, such as 5901, then make sure you connect to the correct port from your Windows client.
