Excluding connections from certain hosts in log file

Is it possible to exclude connections from certain IP addresses from
getting written into the log on a 5.0 server?
I have monitoring systems that do frequent health checks by binding to
the server and it adds lots of lines to my logs (about 14 MB per day)
that I don't need or care about. I'd like to exclude these connections
from showing up.
thanks,

No, this is not possible
What you can potentially do is to use the log file rotation and do something like a grep -v to supress the lines that you don't want in the rotated file that won't be used anymore by the server.

Error "421 #4.4.5 Too many connections from your host"

We have deployed a Java application using JavaMail which enables people to send email to their contact lists. It has been in use for a few years, various updates being applied over that time. Most of our customers have no problem. But a couple of weeks ago, two of them suddenly could no longer send emails.
The connection to the SMTP server works but when the application sends email, it gets an error 421. A debugging dump is reproduced below: the target email address is changed to protect the uninvolved; messages starting with **** come from my program, other come from JavaMail.
Can anyone solve this problem? suggest where to look? Thanks.

Looks like the server keeps track of the number of connections from each machine, and when the number of connections in a certain period exceeds some number, that machine is deemed to be a potential spammer. At any rate it is something you should discuss with the manager of that server.

IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

iMovie 11 audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
This will require:
A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too, as they will be extremely helpful later.
4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
I hope this helped!

Getting error in TNS connection from Oracle hosted on LINUX machine

Hello,
We moved our databases from Solaris to Linux servers. I am running one multithreaded process which creates a pool of db connection which are shared by threads. On moving to Linx db I am getting below error message
[SERVERERROR] ORA-12520: TNS:listener could not find available handler for requested type of server
My first port of call to resolve this error was to check TNS_ADMIN and tnsnames.ora but they are fine and then I checked DB in db some of threads got connected and did insert data error usually occured when thread release control of connection and another thread picks up.
Later I changed configuration to run only one single thread and then it works fine without any error. I also tried running same process with configured to create one thread from two different sessions and then one session got this error but other continued.
Here is sqlnet.log file generated

How to recover from one corrupted redo log file in NOARCHIVE mode?

Oracle 10.2.1.
The redo log file was corrupted and Oracle can't work.
When I use STARTUP mount, I got no error msg.

But I have some applications which are depended on Oracle can't be started.
So, I tried STARTUP open. But I got error msg.

So, how can I restore and recover my database?
If use RMAN, how to do that?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, Yingkuan,
Thanks for the helps.
Actually, I have 10 redo log files exists. All of them are here.
I tried your suggestion:
alter database clear unarchived logfile group 4;
The error msg I got is the same as before:

Compared to losing all the data, it is OK for me lose some of them.
I have more than 1 TB data stored and 99.9% of them are raster images.
The loading of these data were the headache. If I can save them, I can bear the lost.
I want to grasp the last straw.
But I don't know how set the parameter: allowresetlogs_corruption
I got the error msg:

I have run the command:

Hyperlink target connects from Outlook e-mail to file in Oracle database

Greetings.
Due to lack of permissions, I cannot create text file on the UNIX server.
This will not be changed.
I have stored the file in the Oracle 11g database.
I want to send e-mail from PL/SQL with attached file.
No UNIX scripts at all.
It is a big file.
Thought crossed my mind.
Can I send e-mail from PL/SQL containing a hyperlink which connects to the file stored in the Oracle database ?
The link target is a file stored in the Oracle database.
Has anyone done this before?
Let me know your ideas.
Thank you.

Attachments to e-mails are just that - the contents of the file is attached to the body of the mail. The mail arrives at its destination, the mail reader recognises the attachment and enables it to be saved to disk (or opened/viewed).
This is standard stuff.. see MIME for details on how to construct a message body that includes attachments.

The link target is a file stored in the Oracle database.Yes. You need a web server that has been configured with Oracle "+access+" - the default is using Oracle's Apache server that includes a module called mod_plsql. This module enables the web browser to use a URL that refers to a web enabled PL/SQL procedure in a specific database schema - and pass parameters (as part of the URL's query string) to the procedure.
You can also use Oracle EPG (Extended Procedural Gateway I think is what the acronym means). This provides a web server directly inside the Oracle instance via the XDB (integrated XML database) option in Oracle. It too has a mod_plsql type module that provides an interface (via http) to web enabled PL/SQL procedures.
This procedure can be a "+document download+" procedure. Oracle provides a system procedure called WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file()+ that you can use inside that web enabled PL/SQL procedure. This will return the contents of blob/clob as a "file" to the web browser.
For example, a download web-enabled procedure will simplistically look something as follows:
create or replace procedure downloadFile( fileName varchar2 ) is
        b       blob;
        mimeType varchar2(50);
begin
        select
            file_content, mime_type into b, mimeType
        from my_documents where file_name = fileName;
        OWA_UTIL.mime_header( mimeType, false );
        HTP.p('Content-Length: ' || DBMS_LOB.getlength(b));
        OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
        WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file( b );
end;The URL will look something like:
http://my-webserver.my-domain.com:7777/pls/ora/scott.downloadfile?filename=somefile.docwhere:
scott.downloadfile = name of PL/SQL procedure
filename=somefile.doc = parameter name values to pass to procedure

10.5 - 10.6.2: Postfix not accepting e-mails from certain hosts

Hi
Two days ago we migrated our server from 10.5 Server to a new Mac mini server running 10.6.2 server.
We are now facing the problem that postfix refuses to accept incoming e-mails from most hosts. Some hosts seem to be able to get through, but so far we haven't be able to identify a pattern.
The transfers just times out with various error messages. Below is one of the shorter transscripts. Any ideas where to start looking?

Hi again,
I was able to further narrow down the problem. The remote server is sending a complete message but postfix on our mac doesn't recognize the end of message token, thus timing out the connection after 5 minutes.
Any ideas? Is this a postfix issue? If so, what can we do about it.

Limiting connections from specific host to vips Ace 4710

Hello,
Do you guys know if its possible in the ace to limit connections from a specific host?
For example. if host X does Y connections to one of the vips on the ace, it will be blocked.

Hi Stefan,
That is not possible on ACE. You can define the limits on servers in serverfarm itself but for a particular HOST there is no such provision.

Exclude postings from certains accounts from Project Settlement

Hi,
I would like to know if there is a certain config that could exclude postings of CERTAIN ACCOUNTS from Project settlement.
Thanks!
Vivian

Hi,
May I know if you are referring to OKO6 config? We have no included any of those unwanted cost elements for settlement, but during settlement we are getting error saying that allocation structure not complete - so we need to find a way for system to totally exclude posting from those accounts for settlement (instead of showing error)
Thanks!

RMAN recovery from lost online redo log files

Hi,
Can any one tell me, How can we recover database when all online redolog files (current, Active and Inactive) are lost.
Note : RMAN with catalog.

Hi,
Database is running or down?
If the database is is down and your database files and controlfile are synchronised then then
perform a fake incomplete recovery like "Recover database until cancel and open the database using resetlogs.
This will create new log files. And then take a full database backup.

Step : 1: Check your NQSCONFIG.ini file and in Repository section should be like
[ REPOSITORY ]
Star = bise1.rpd, DEFAULT;
or
[ REPOSITORY ]
bise1 = bise1.rpd, DEFAULT;
Step : 2 : Open ODBC Data source Administration ->System DSN and then Select AnalyticsWeb - Oracle BI Server
In Oracle BI Server LoginId and Password window you should check and enable the Change the default repository to
Here the name should be Star or bise1 ( Refer step:1:)
Click next and enable Change the default catalog to and select the Database (highlighted gray to blue color)
Leave others are default.
Note : whatever repository will be put under change Default repository section will be override by the DEFAULT settings in NQSCONFIG.ini .You can tick “Connect to Oracle BI Server to obtain default settings for the additional configuring”, so that RPD connection will be established as per the definition in .ini file after BI server restart.
Plz award points, if it helpful,

No internet connectivity from certain WiFi Hot Spots

I've been unable to get internet connectivity using Tim Horton's WiFi on my MacBook Pro.
I can select the Tim Horton network but when I launch my browser nothing happens.
I've cleared cache and cookies, restarted laptop and a few other things, Not able to get on the Internet no matter what I do., My iPhone -was- able to connect without issue. This is odd isn't it?
I've tried Safari and Chrome to no avail, I am being given an IP address but get no further than that, The Tim Horton's join network page never shows up. Nothing.
This has happened to me at 3 different Tim Horton's.
I use my laptop at -countless- hot spots and have -never- had a connection issue... only at Tim Hortons.
I don't know what's going on but something is not right. It just happened to me this morning. I left Tim Hortons and went to Panera. BOOM. Instantly online.. Same with McDonalds which is right across the street from Panera. I can get on both places. But not Tim Horton's. Any ideas why?
I don't know if this helps, but I did capture a log of the attempt to get online...

Clinton, thanks for the suggestion of trying NetSpot. The application sounds like it might be helpful for general network assessment although I'm not sure if it can provide much assistance in this situation.
I believe the internet connectivity issues I'm experiencing have more to do with whatever kind of "sensing" that the router/hotspot uses. Generally when I go to a new hotspot, after choosing it in my list of avalable networks, a hotspot window will automatically open asking for my agreement to the terms of useage. That never happened at the hotspot I was having trouble with. I was able to choose the hotspot, had an excellent signal strength and was assigned an IP but never got any further than that.
So I'm not sure what NetSpot will be able to do for me in that situation but I'll download it and try it.

Drop connections from specific hosts/nets

Hi all.
I'd like to completely drop connections coming from some specific die-hard UCE mass mailers who keep hammering my mail system.
I blocked their IP ranges in my RAT with connection behavior set to either Reject or TCP refuse, but they keep trying anyway.
Both my boxes get about 50 connections/min night and day from these companies (even if they get rejected on the first box with a 554 error code, i.e. permanent failure, they try on the next box anyway, and try and try again...)
So, is there a way to do this with AsyncOS at the IP or TCP layer ?
Or do I need to do this on my firewall ?
TIA.
PS: I miss Ironportnation. It was so much better than this...

Yeah? OK, I guess I'll block them at the firewall level.
Since I'll end-up droping the connection anyway, it somewhat makes sense to drop it as early as possible.
It would have been nice to keep all mail-related configuration in the same place though.

"What does "Error receiving connection (Not connected)" mean in the error log file?"

Hello
In reply to my earlier posting, I am using iplanet 4.1 sp7 on Solaris 8 (sparc). We are using https. Does this help matters?
Thanks
Mark

That error message means the client either disconnected without sending any data (SSL and non SSL connections) or disconnected before completing the SSL handshake (SSL connections only).
