External router and solaris intsallation

Hi,
I'm very new to solaris (and *nix world also) so, please, forgive me if this is a silly question, but I've installed solaris 10 express x86, with my pc connected via cross cable to an external router (properly configured). After installlation, I can't see my router.
Can someone help me, or give some good (and clear/simple...) resource to see?
thaks!

External Router and Firewall

I have just been informed by Apple Care that my entire implementation for my Xserve is off base. We only got to this problem when Kerberos wouldn't work. I had judiciously followed the manual and had my Ether1 and 2 ports set up to do external (1) internal (2), provide DHCP, NAT, VPN the whole nine yards. Ran gateway assistant, got my FQDN, promoted to open directory. And now I am told by my Apple Care guy that this is not at all the way to go; that I need to have an external router with firewall and assign the static IP to it and then run the server interally only. Let me just say I took the 4 day server essentials class and that was noticably lacking in the discussion. So I guess what I am asking today is what an ideal router/firewall product would be suggested. I'd prefer it be rack mounted. I also need a product that the company is going to support. So suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I guess I am back to square one on this. Full reinstall. Sigh.

1. Run OD and AFP on the fixed IP Master. This should
be your strongest, fastest server and must have a
real fixed IP address, not allocated by DHCP. You
need an FQDN for this IP address entereted in your
internal DNS.
WES: I believe I am hearing you say that the VPN/Firewall server (the weaker one) would now carry the static IP address on ethernet1; and have say 192.168.2.1 as it's manualy set internal IP on ethernet2; say 192.168.3.1. The better server would have it's IP manually set to, say 192.168.3.1.
2. Run internal DHCP and DNS services on the Master
also.
WES: I am not sure why one would run DHCP and DNS here though? I figured that was a simplier process to accompish off the weaker server.
3. On your firewall machine (the Replica, maybe
running Tiger Server 10-user) run your webpages &
VPN.
WES: But as I understood it, one had to run this off of the machine with the FQDN. Same as mail. More below....
4. Put Mail on a completely separate box in your
DMZ.
WES: I'm not sure I follow you here. I am out of boxes. Actually I'll have to buy another one if I got this route at all. I don't have nearly a large enough operation to justify three servers -- maybe not two -- except for this problem.
One advantage of using a Tiger Server Master/Replica
over a cheap firewall box is that you have redundancy
available for all your Tiger Server apps (DHCP, DNS,
etc). You also have an automatic backup of all user
accounts/passwords and you don't need to configure
separate VPN accounts/profiles for your users.
WES: Yes that makes sense.
Plus, if you're serious about VPN, 'proper' routers
start to get real expensive if you need concurrent
connections.
WES: There is another issue that I am a bit uncertain about. Where I got into trouble here was trying to get Kerberos to work. However, I am not sure that in the end that's a service I'm going to need. If VPN encrypts all traffic over the internet is Kerberos necesssary. I DON'T need it in house as there isn't an internal security issue of any kind. Maybe I am shooting for something I don't need...which brings us to...I am still confused about the Apple Care guy's comment that with the set up as it is, he could essentially raid my OD. He rattled off a lot of cool talk that made me think he was right but I have never found any reference to this. Can anyone explain to me -- one box acting in this capacity for a small office with a public IP -- being that open to a security risk. Puzzles me.

Can I use Extreme with Time Capsule to extend my gateway router and still use Capsule as "external HD"?

Bought Airport Extreme with Time Capsule version 7.7.2 with 2 Terabytes Feb 2014. It was probably an expensive mistake, but after searching for weeks for a external hard drive, it seemed reasonably priced to just use the capsule as my external hard drive for the price I paid. Spend an hour with Apple Care to get it working-had to use ethernet cord to my iMac OS 10.8.5 processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5. I did not "need" the airport as we have a Winstream SAGEMCOM modem/router (Sagemfast 1704) But, I was desperate and about to lose my old external hard drive with literally had 3 computers worth of information on it. It had already "died" once, but got it back, so once I got the airport/capsule and was told I just paid for an expensive HD, I had no time to take it back to get something else-I had to transfer my info right then. We (Apple Care) could not get it to work as a HD wirelessly. It may be because it was being set up for the first time; I don't know. I was hoping I would get a transcript of all done so I could do it myself if needed later on, but when I looked at my email-they didn't do that. (Don't know if that is normal, I was used to other "techs" sending the email.) So now I really want to try to move my airport and "extend" our wifi as it said on the "box" that you could do...
Our Windstream router had to be placed in the lower level at the bottom of our stairs. The stairway is "open" (no door going down the steps). I want to place the Extreme at the top of the stairs so that we can use some things in our offices or not have Netflix on our TV lose connectivity when we all are on our computers.
I know I need an ethernet cord to connect directly with the modem/router to the Airport Extreme. I don't know what I will need to do after I connect it as it was so goofy when we set it up the first time (With the app it would disappear and not show up..) But my biggest concern is will I be able to still use the capsule as my hard drive and will I be able to do it wirelessly? (Even with it connected by ethernet, every day I have to re-connect to it before I can click on anything on the hard drive. It never shows up on it's own as my old HD did. That drives me nuts.) I do back up using the Time Capsule feature as well. I appreciate any help.

I am still willing to plug in the ethernet cord to the modem/router and try it IF I was able to get a step by step instructions..
Connecting the Time Capsule (TC) to the existing Winstream by Ethernet would be the basis for a roaming type network. This type of network allows you to basically "roam" with a wireless client and connect to either router. This, in essence, would provide you with an "extended" wireless network. The Apple routers can work with just about any manufacturers' routers in this fashion.
The keys to having a successful roaming network are as follows:
The routers must be interconnected by Ethernet.
Both routers will broadcast their own Wi-Fi network, but MUST use the same Network Name (or SSID), wireless security type (WPA or WPA2), and wireless password.
The TC MUST be reconfigured as a bridge.
Connect a single Ethernet cable between one of the Winstream's LAN ports and the WAN (circle of dots) port on the TC.
The basic steps are:
Power-down the Winstream.
Perform a "factory default" reset on the TC. Leave the TC powered-down after the reset has completed.
Connect the TC to the Winstream using an Ethernet cable.
Power-up the Winstream. Wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it to initialize.
Power-up the TC. Wait at least 5 minutes to allow it to initialize. (Note: Since we just reset the TC it will be performing as a wireless router that will be broadcasting an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a Network Name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN)
Connect your computer to the Winstream's Wi-Fi network.
Run the AirPort Utility. select the TC, and then, select Edit.
Go to the Network tab.
Change the Router Mode option to: Off (Bridge Mode)
Select the Wireless tab.
Verify that the Network Mode option is set to: Create a wireless network
For Wireless Network Name, enter the Wi-Fi network name used by the Winstream.
For Wireless Security, select the equivalent security type that is used by the Winstream. (Note: Use "WPA/WPA2 Personal" if the Winstream is using WPA/TKIP. Use "WPA2 Personal" is the Winstream is using WPA2/AES.
For Wireless Password, enter the same password used by the Winstream.
Select Update and allow the TC to restart.
As far as your external HD, yes you should still be able to use it as before.

I have a tesco router and an external hard drive attached to it as a network drive (shared) for my macbook and MB-Air. Have no problems with my MB accessing it, but with MB-AIR it says - 'the version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. pls contact your system administrator to resolve the problem'. MB-Air uses maverick downloaded yesterday - upgrade from mountain lion. MB uses snow leopard still, as i am quite used to it and am thinking of upgrade if mavericks work fine on air. Also have parallel on snow leopard but it is no longer supported according to mac website - if i upgrade am i going to lose my parallel and will have to buy a new one!!!

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

How to setup wireless time capsule with 3rd party external HDD and router?

Topic says it all really...
I've got a linksys router and an iomega external hard drive.
I want to have wireless time capsule setup but i don't really wanna shell out for an apple time capsule when I have a perfectly working router and hard drive...
Can it be done? would I be better off buying an airport express/extreme?
cheers

Welcome, jackbyo!
I've got a linksys router
Good product
iomega external hard drive.
1) The drive must be formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to work with Time Machine.
2) The drive will need to be connected directly to your Mac via USB or FireWire connection.
Can it be done?
As above
would I be better off buying an airport express/extreme
The AirPort Express will not support a hard drive.
Time Machine backups to a drive at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme are not supported by Apple due to corruption issues.

Is possible to have a time machine backup on an external hd connected to either a primary or secondary router and not have "back to my mac" using 10.7.3?

Is possible to have a time machine backup on an external hd connected to either a primary or secondary router and not have "back to my mac" using 10.7.3?

The bottom line is that Apple does not support Time Machine backups at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme. If they don't support their own router, they certainly don't support other routers from other manufacturers.
Connect the drive directly to the Mac using either USB or FireWire.....or....use a Time Capsule. Either of these setups will be supported.
If you want to try the unsupported method(s), you can certainly do so. But, I would suggest that you have a secondary backup plan in place if this is important data that you will be backing up.

Cisco 877W router and external ADSL modem

Cisco 877W router and external ADSL modem
In order to support ADSL2+ on a pre ADSL2+ router and in preparation for a later migration to BT infinity I am trying to configure the Router using an external adsl2+ modem appropriately.
The original configuration had 3 ports configured as one (internal lan) vlan and bridge group together with one wireless sub-interface, the remaining port configured a second vlan and bridge group with a second wireless sub- interface. The Dialer was a member of the second bridge group. This way the second wireless interface and associated bridge group provided a kind of DMZ for outbound access.
The configuration I am attempting is similar the lan ports remain the same, but port 0 as a member of the vlan and bridge group (now a pppoe client) associated with one of the wireless sub interfaces as per above. The ATM interface is downed. This nearly works except that if the wireless subinterface on this bridge group is configured the dialer no longer dials giving a 'no dialer string' error. If I do not configure that wireless sub interface all works well.
If anyone is interested to look I would appreciate any comments. I enclose a sanitised config in which you will note the 'commented out' wireless subnet interface (in red).

Hi Jody,
Apologies delay in replying. I have done the following:
Made two of the FE ports vlan1,BVI1 (for LAN traffic)
Left one port as VLAN10 as the pppoe client conected to the externalmodem
Made the last port VLAN10 as well and gave it an IP addess as for a DMZ client.
I have DHCP configured to serve the DMZ addresses.
This all works for LAN clients and also works for a client attachedto that physical DMZ port.
When I added a dot11radio sub interface into VLAN 10 the wireless client did not get an IP lease. Everything else continued to work.
I had never thought about this before, but if a dot11radio interface is on the same vlan (but not being part ofa bridge group) why are DHCP broadcasts not propogating to all the vlan members as I would have expected. I recognise that this isa limit in my understanding.
If I then made VLAN10 a member of a new Bridge Group, I lost WAN connectivity as per original posting.
I cannot add another VLAN due to the 2 vlan limit in this image.
Finally regarding your comment about giving it what it wants, what exactly did you have in mind. The dialer already has a dial string parameters configured.
Think I am about to give upon this.
Regards,

Has anyone enabled time machine using a linksys router and external hard drive? And if so how?

Has anyone enabled time machine using a link sys router and external hard drive? And if so how? I have a Linksys E4200 wireless router with a usb port on it. I also have a Western Digital Elements 1TB external hard drive. I would like to be able to use this hard drive with time machine. Has anyone done so and if so how can I do so?

You might get some responses, but we don't see many Linksys users on an Apple forum so it may be awhile before you see an answer.
It might be useful to point out that Apple does not even support Time Machine backups to the USB port on their own AirPort Extreme wireless router, so we may be heading down a very slippery slope here.
I've tried Time Machine backups on an AirPort Extreme router a number of times in the past. It's just not reliable. Works for awhile, then has corruption problems. Or has corruption issues immediately. I once went a month or so and thought I had it nailed, then got smacked with a corrupted set of backups again.
But, I guess you never know. It might work on the Linksys. If you decide to try this, I would suggest that you have another backup plan in place for your important data.
Hope that some Linksys users will respond so we can all learn.

HT1349 very slow external HDD and usb drive connected to Apple Extreme Router

Hello
So I got a western digital USB drive (500gig) and western digital Live 2TB.
I bought a new Apple Extreme router and connected them both.
USB drive and external hdd (WD Live 2TB) very slow when connected to Apple Extreme Router, using Lion 10.7 and updated both firmware for router, western digital and Airport Utility.
Slow means, it takes half an hour to copy 200 Mb of file to the WD Live 2TB, and its connected to my router with a gigabit ethernet cable!
Is someone else having the same problem, I thought even over usb I should get around 2-5mb range.
I am using Macbook Pro and 802.11n with Lion 10.7.2
Please Help

The USB WD 500 gig is connected to the Airport Extreme using a non-powered USB 2.0 hub, only two things a HP printer and the 500 gig is connected through it. I already formatted it to MAC OS Extended Journalled. ANd I think the speed didnt change.
For the WD 2TB Live I didnt format it to anything, started using it out of the box. I just updated its firmware. I was having the same speed even when I directly connected it to my Mac Book Pro using ethernet gigabit cable.
This WD 2TB Live doesnt have any USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 connectors, just the ethernet cable. I wasnt planning to carry it around. Just wanted to use it as a good ol NAS. So then I saw the fix somewhere and connected to this drive via AFP, afp://MyBookLive._afpovertcp._tcp.local/Public and it become suddenly very fast. Just like how it should be, I easily copied 20 gigs in around 20-25 minutes. (This was dirctly connected to my computer)
So then I thought my problem is solved and disconnected my WD Live and connected it back to the Apple Router again, and the speed became very slow again. Now both the USB 500 gig and this 2TB Live are slow.
Time machine is also very slow.
Thing is I also have a linux and windows machine(in repair, but should be up soon), Since apple is the newest computer I have, I want to make it work on this first. I dont want to use the MACosx journaled on the 2TB right now. Besides formatting the USB 500 gig to this format didnt help with my speed. So the problem can be elsewhere.
- I will try to get a powered USB hub as woodmeister50 suggested.
- I dont know how to connect via iCloud as cigame suggested
Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions. I have tested and returned enough routers in past few weeks. I really want it to work on this combination LionOSX + Airport Extreme + WD Live.
Thanks

Default static route and Null 0

Hi Everyone,
Need to clear some doubts for below setup
Switch 3550A is connected to Internet Router and has OSPF nei relationship with it.
3550A#                      sh run int fa0/11
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 272 bytes
interface FastEthernet0/11
description OSPF LAN Connection to 2691 Router Interface Fas 0/1
no switchport
ip address 192.168.5.2 255.255.255.254
sh ip route shows
3550A#sh ip route
Gateway of last resort is 192.168.5.3 to network 0.0.0.0
O*E2 0.0.0.0/0 [110/1] via 192.168.5.3, 20:39:56, FastEthernet0/11
3550A#
All is working fine.
For testing purposes i config below static route on 3550A
ip default-network 192.168.1.0
ip route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 Null0
After above change
3550A#           sh ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2

       o - ODR, P - periodic downloaded static route
Gateway of last resort is not set
S*   192.168.1.0/24 is directly connected, Null0
O*E2 0.0.0.0/0 [110/1] via 192.168.5.3, 20:38:38, FastEthernet0/11
Now i can not ping to internet as below
3550A#ping 4.2.2.2
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 4.2.2.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)
When we ping from Switch then source IP is always the Outside interface IP right?
So in this case Switch is using which IP as source?
Ping to internet is not working as default network is set to 192.168.1.0 and all request goes to this IP and then it goes to
Null interface right?
Extended ping works fine as below
3550A#ping
Protocol [ip]:
Target IP address: 4.2.2.2
Repeat count [5]:
Datagram size [100]:
Timeout in seconds [2]:
Extended commands [n]: y

Type of service [0]:
Set DF bit in IP header? [no]:
Validate reply data? [no]:

Sweep range of sizes [n]:
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 4.2.2.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 192.168.5.2
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 76/79/80 ms
Second thing to confirm is this ping works because 192.168.5.2 is directly connected to Internet Router interface?

Hi Mahesh,
When we ping from Switch then source IP is always the Outside interface IP right?
That is correct. By default it is always the outgoing interface on the device unless you specify it differently.
Ping to internet is not working as default network is set to 192.168.1.0 and all request goes to this IP and then it goes to
Null interface right?
That is correct. Null0 can't be used as next-hop.
Second thing to confirm is this ping works because 192.168.5.2 is directly connected to Internet Router interface?
No, that is because 192.168.5.0/30 is NATed. Remember 192.168.x.x address is a private segment and cannot access the Internet unless NAT is used.

Samba and Solaris, access slow via XP

Hi everyone,
I've new to solaris and I've installed 10, update 5. I've configured samba (very badly I believe) so that I can access my solaris box from my XP 64 computer.
Both are on a local network (connected via a Belkin router) and in the same workgroup. I can see the XP machine from solaris, but not access anything (I just get a 'cannot show contents of directory' message). This is not my main problem, since I mostly want to access the solaris system from XP (I want to set up the solaris box as a RAID Z NAS). This works to a degree. I can see and access my solaris filesystem from XP. Hurray. I have two problems:
1. I have set guest to NO, but I never get asked for a password (I've set up an account on the solaris system with a password using smbpasswd). I just get access. Why is this? I don't want a bunch of ner-do-wels skulking about my server and erasing files and such.
2. While I can stream music fine, after a minute or so, if I want to browse files from XP it stalls for about one minute (I think it is re-logging in) and while this happens any music being streamed stops. How do I stay connected and logged in? Here is my smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.2.3 (192.168.2.3)
# Date: 2008/05/11 18:46:15
[global]
     socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY
     ldap ssl = no
[home]
     read only = No
     guest ok = No
     available = No
[homes]
     valid users = %S
     read only = No
     guest ok = No
As you can tell I'm pretty new to all this so you may have to dumb down your answers a little. Thanks for the help.

Yup.....repeatable!
Delete mapped drive.
Connect via USB
Playbook shows in windows explorer as PlayBook [Pin: number] Y: being the drive that XP has mapped it to.
Then search for the PlayBook by ip address \\192.168.1.x
It shows up under workgroup by its ip address
Disconect USB cable
Workgroup connect remains (via wifi)
Strange to say the least.

I have moved my Itunes media folder to an external drive and Itunes does not find the items in the folder

Running Win7. I moved my entire Itunes library to an external drive to free up space on my laptop. Itunes recognized the change and all was well. That worked fine and I have synced several times from the laptop with the library on the external drive. Now the laptop is in the shop (sigh, not Itunes related a dead network card). I connected the external drive to my desktop, made sure my software was up to date. opened ITunes went to edit/preferences/advanced. Went to change Itunes media folder location and navigated to the proper folder on my external drive and clicked OK. None of the music, videos, etc, that are in that folder show up in iTunes on the desktop. Restarted ITunes, no help, reboot computer, no help. Have I done something wrong or left out a step. I could copy all the media onto the desktop individually and build new playlists but that seems like something that should not be needed? One of the reasons I moved my Itunes media folder to the external drive was so I could use the laptop for iTunes while travel and the desktop for iTunes while at home. Do I have to copy the entire folder to my desktop and take up space there? That would be counterproductive to using the external drive. I searched and saw a hint to hold down shift while starting ITunes but that did not change anything. Any help would be most appreciated!
Jim in WV

Thank you for your prompt response - I did as you said and did a drag and drop into the iTunes window - it imported and got my album art from the net. When I started Itunes with the shift key down I was prompted to choose a library but since I copied over the media folder and not the library folder I was unable to select that so I guess I will have to create a new library and add in all the music, videos, etc. unless I wait for my laptop and export the library or at least that seems to be the case? In short, all my data (iTunes media folder) is on my external drive and can be added to the blank iTunes screen but I can not choose a library folder. Is there anyway around completely making all those playlists again? I am not sure my laptop will survive the shop with data intact and really hate to start over on those.
In an unrelated question - I collect old TV shows from the 1950's. Can I make playlists within the home video folder somehow? In other words like one for Quiz shows, one for comedies, one for police and detective shows, etc. while I am remaking all my playlists for my music if I end up having to go that route?
Once again thank you for helping me out. I am not too Itunes savvy and really appreciate you taking the time to answer.

Time capsule + 1TB external HD and 2 macbookpros

How do I go about setting up Time Capsule for 2 notebooks? I have a printer attached to the USB port and have gotten a 1 TB HD and a powered USB hub. I'd like to put a 200 gb notebook on the Time Capsule and a 500 gb notebook on the 1 TB external drive. Presently, I've been running the small notebook on the TC but have just migrated the data on the HD to the 500 gb notebook. Can you suggest steps on how to go about this?

LannyRLevenson wrote:
I was running TC on the original 200 GB notebook
To avoid confusion, try to distinguish between Time Capsule (an Apple combination AirPort router and backup drive) and Time Machine (backup software).
but haven't used it with the external HD or the new 500 GB notebook. Should both notebooks be running (attached with ethernet cable) when I go to configure the TC to share the attached notebook over the network?
An initial Time Machine backup can run faster if it is run over an Ethernet cable rather than over Wi-Fi. I'm not sure what you mean by "share the attached notebook over the network". What is it about the "notebook" that you want to share and to what do you want to share it?
Where do I find "sparsebundle" file?
It should be on the network drive where Time Machine has been writing its backups. (Time Machine backups written to a locally-attached drive are named differently.)

Can I use my 1TB Time Capsule as my external HD AND have it do backups with Time Machine?

I want to be able to utilize my Time Capsule as my external HD because I have 150GB of photos and music to offload but it's unclear to me how to do this - it seems that some say that it can only either do Time Machine backups (that eventually would delete what I want to keep forever) or strictly as an EHD. I currently use it as a router and for my backups.

Not a good idea to use it for both. See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.

How to use External Routing in Human Task

Hi,
Could you please help me knowing how to create External Routing in Human Task in SOA Composite.
Thanks

When defining the external routing class in the .task, you can define the name value pairs which you want to pass to the program. Here you can pass dynamic values to the class as well by reading the appropiate node from the payload. In your class the name, value would be available in the "Map propertyBag" parameters in Rajiv's example link.
Document says:
Map of properties — When an assignment service is specified, a list of properties can also be specified to correlate callbacks with backend services that determine the task assignees.Or if you are too lazy to map many parameters and values, you can always read the whole Task task and then use getDocument and some xml reading to determine the values. This Task is the whole document.
API:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/apirefs.1111/e10660/oracle/bpel/services/workflow/task/model/TaskType.html#getDocument__Document says:
Task document — The task document that is executed by the workflow. The task document contains the payload and other task information like current state, and so on.Also you need to make sure that you are maintaining the state of the assignment class, doc says:
The assignment service class cannot be stateful because every time workflow services need to call the assignment service, it creates a new instance.Thus if you are doing multiple serial assignments one after the another and if your server restarts in between, then the approval would start at the first assignee again. Suppose in Rajiv's doc link e.g., if the task is assigned to 'wfaulk' and the server restarts then the task would be assigned back to 'jstein'. In order to prevent this you need to modify the java code and each time the variable changes it's value you need to place it in a dehydration store. Also on each action over the process you need to reinitialize the variable from that dehydration store.
