External Samba Server

We are currently going through the test phase of moving from a AD based network to an OD based network and one of the problems we are having is getting our NAS devices to connect to OD. If we didn't support some windows users this wouldn't be a show stopper, but since we do this needs to work.
The NAS servers do connect and you can SSH, set permissions, etc. using OD users and passwords but we can not figure out the correct settings for getting SMB to work on them.
The NAS machines are nothing special just Ubuntu 9.10 running (trying anyway) Samba Server. We have poured over the Internet and a lot of the guides we are finding are mostly for connecting a Samba Server to AD. We have tried many guides trying to get it to work with OpenLDAP (OD is basically a wrapper for it) and we are wondering if the tweaks apple made to OpenLDAP are causing some issues.
Does anyone know the correct settings or know where to point us to find the information?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

ISE 1.2 Patch 2 External RADIUS Server Sequence Broken?

Hi community,
We have upgraded our proof of concept ISE 1.2 lab to Patch level 2.
Our lab design includes the use of external RADIUS servers which we off-load certain authentication rules to.
To ensure resiliency of the external RADIUS service, we have two of these which we add to a RADIUS Server Sequence, the idea being that if the first in the list is unavailable, ISE will try the second and all will be well.
Now this worked for us in testing ISE 1.2, but I have noticed that after the upgrade to Patch 2 ISE is sending the majority RADIUS traffic to the first (failed) external RADIUS server, with only the odd RADIUS Access-Request to thte next in the list.
Anybody else come across this??
All helpful comments rated!
Many thanks, Ash.

I couldn't find any known issues with this feature. Could you please paste the screen shot of external radius sequence and configuration. Also, how are we determing that the first server in the sequence is DEAD?

Dbcon connection from sap db2 to external sql server

Hi ,
I am trying to connect from my sap server which is in unix platform with DB2 database to external SQL server using DBCON as MSSQL_SERVER=<server_name> MSSQL_DBNAME=<db_name>. But while running ADBC_TEST_connection i am getting the error . When i check the error log it says
Loading DB library '/usr/sap/DVL/SYS/exe/run/dbmssslib.so' ...
M *** ERROR => DlLoadLib()==DLENOACCESS - dlopen("/usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run/dbmssslib.so") FAILED
"Unable to find library '/usr/sap/DVL/SYS/exe/run/dbmssslib.so'." [dlux.c 445]

B *** ERROR => Couldn't load library '/usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run/dbmssslib.so'
How to resolve this issue. As it was mentioned in few forum we need to download the dbsl library from kernel patches and to load in kernel path. As my db is DB2 can we download dbmssslib.so this library and load in kernel file? Is it will work?

Rai

Hi Rai,
This error indicates that the ABAP stack could not find the SAP DBSL for SQL Server (dbmssslib.dll) in the kernel directory. If you encounter this error on a Unix - based server the root cause is clear: the DBSL does not exist for other platforms than Windows or Linux x84_64. In this case use a Windows-based or a Linux x86_64-based SAP Application Server to establish the connection. If your system does not contain a Windows-based or a Linux x86_64-based Application Server you need to setup a small one as workaround. If you encounter this error on a Windows Application Server or a Linux x86_64 based Application Server make sure that the DBSL is properly installed in the kernel directory as explained in the document below.
For more details on configuration and troubleshooting refer to below SCN document

Hi,
To clarify a couple of things:
1- "reverse-route" does not have anything to do with this issue, the problem relies on the Windows 7 machine.
2- Do you connect with an Admin account (Windows admin)?
3- Do you run the VPN client as an administrator?
4- Have you tried to disable any AV or software protection on the machine (just for testing).?
Let me know.

Settings and usage of external FTP Server in ECC 6.0

Dear all,
I work in ECC 6.0, and I want to configure and use an external FTP Server for upload, download and delete file from FTP Server.
My questions are:
1) Which are steps for configure an FTP connection?
2) How can I read, delete and send a flat file to the FTP Server? Can you send a sample code?
Thanks in advance for your help.

CREATE CONTROLFILE
Caution:
Oracle recommends that you perform a full backup of all files in the database before using this statement. For more information, see Oracle9i User-Managed Backup and Recovery Guide.
Purpose
Use the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement to re-create a control file in one of the following cases:
All copies of your existing control files have been lost through media failure.
You want to change the name of the database.
You want to change the maximum number of redo log file groups, redo log file members, archived redo log files, datafiles, or instances that can concurrently have the database mounted and open.
Note:
If it is necessary to use the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement, do not include in the DATAFILE clause any datafiles in temporary or read-only tablespaces. You can add these types of files to the database later.
An alternative to the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement is ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE, which generates a SQL script in the trace file to re-create the controlfile. If your database contains any read-only or temporary tablespaces, that SQL script will also contain all the necessary SQL statements to add those files back into the database.

Transfer file to an external FTP SERVER

HI Gentelemen!!,
I'm trying to open an external FTP connection, sending a file from the MiniSAP.
Which is the appropiate RFC connection that I have to use??
Anybody know how to set RFC connection to access an external FTP server.
This are the MF that I use:
CALL FUNCTION 'SCRAMBLE_STRING'
To encrypt password
CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_CONNECT'
here i have an import value for RFC DESTINATION
return handle - I use it to close the connection
CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_COPY'
CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_DISCONNECT'
Use HANDLE numbre to close the connection
Thanks for your help.
POLAK.-

I am not sure minisap has sapftp and sapftpa executable.
Anyway the two RFC destination used to do FTP are SAPFTPA and SAPFTP. This are 2 TCP/IP RFC destination (Type T) that launch either the program sapftp or sapftpa on the application server.
If these rfc destination are not setup in transaction SM59 you can try to define them but it might not work on minisap.

Transfer Excel file to external FTP server via PGP

Hi SDN!
I have build an scheduled report to generated an Excel-file from an internal table and saved it in the database. Now my task is to upload it to an external FTP Server of a partner company. The File contains sensible data and shall be encrypted via PGP.
How can i upload to an external FTP server and before that, encrypt the file with PGP? I appreciate any help and look forward to reward some great posts.
Thanks for your help!
Edited by: Steffen Wieprecht on Aug 7, 2008 1:00 PM

I found a solution myself, maybe someone is interrested:
I installed a WS FTP Professional on a Server.
Onto this server I wrote the files that have to be ftp-uploaded into one specific folder.
A Perl Script in the scheduled tasks of the machine checks if a new file is in the folder and starts the upload.
In WS FTP the site upload is defined with all PGP Keys so they are store secure.
This solution can be used by any programming language that is able to write files in the upload folder.

How to schedule Adapter to Pickup File on external FTP Server

Any solution is very much appreciated for the following Problem.
My Scenarios are File to XI to FIle
My problem is XI is picking up file on FTP Server while file is being written by Webservice ( This Webservice can not write .tmp file or movie file from one directory to another. So these options are ruled out )
These are proposed steps:
1. Job Scheduler creates Dummy File on XI File System
2. XI Picks up File on XI File System and Invokes External Webservice and receives Response that a File "MadFile" has been written to external FTP Server.
3. After XI receives response from webservice, XI should get "MadFile" from FTP Server
How Can I implement step 3 above.
( Please do not suggest executing scripts as the the application where webservice running do not want to write it )

ST,
At times one has to take a stand and using a BPM like this is actually complicating things. Using the script option is the best solution!
Menahwile, even BPM solution doesn't make sense to me as like you correctly told, your Second Receive Step can poll over the file and pick up the temporary file! Even if you can handle this using Adapter Scheduling, you would need Correlation and I am pretty sure that as you are using a dummy file, this also cannot be achieved!
Would suggest that another option would be to ask the webservice to send a call directly to XI after writing the file. The moment XI receives the Webservice request, XI can invoke a java proxy to collect the file ( polling using File adapter is not going to help ) and then pass this file to the integration engien and so on.
Even my solution is not a very good one, but, if nothing works out, it is something atleast. But, I would ask you to push for the tmp folder plus script.

How many DNS record need to create in Internal & external DNS server for exchange?

Hi friends,
I recently installed Exchange Server 2010 in my organization for testing purpose and I've register a pubic ip too for exchange server on godaddy.com. How many
internal & External DNS records reqired to configure on external & Internal dns server so my all feature like Auto-discover, Activ -sync,& webmail start working perfectly.
It's my first time configuring exchange for a organization.
Thanks & Regards,
Pradeep Chaugule

Hi,
Just as what ManU Philip said, you need to create
Autodiscovery.domaincom and mail.domain.com for external dns server.
Generally, you configure your Exchange Servers as DNS clients of your internal DNS server.
Refer from:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996996(v=exchg.65).aspx

My Samba server stopped working and I have no idea why.

I set up a samba server once I got arch installed and it was working like a boss for about a month. Then one day (i think the machine may have rebooted) it just stopped working. I can't access my samba share from any of my other machines (all running Windows 7). I hadn't changed anything so I don't know what the culprit is. I did some update and looked at the smb.conf file but everything seems to be in order. I also tried to connect with smbclient from the machine itself and I get an NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED error.

Hi,
My thought is to check the current IP of the server, as your smb.conf has the line interfaces = 192.168.1.109 which means samba will only listen on that interface for requests. If the IP of the server has changed, that would explain why samba isn't working.

External DNS server not replicating records to secondary after migration from 2003 to 2012

Hi
I have a query relating to 2012 Server and DNS.
Last week we de-commissioned our primary external DNS server (Windows 2003 Server) and moved the role over to a new Windows 2012 server.
Since this point replication to our secondary server (3rd party hosted) does not seem to occur and our DNS records seem to have expired on the secondary server as we cannot look these up via nslookup.
I cannot see any failures in the event log of the server; I have checked our external firewall logs and nothing is being blocked inbound/ outbound as far as I can see. And the server’s local firewall has been disabled.
The server is a standalone server in a workgroup with a standard filebased primary zone, with no AD integration and recursion disabled.
When I created the zone I copied the .dns file from the old server and selected this in the interface during the creation of the zone on the new server. The new server has the same internal and external IP as the old server and the old server is off-line.
I have also manually increased the serial number of the zone and still no joy.
One thing that I have noticed is when I open the zones properties/Name Servers and click edit on the external nameserver I get the infamous "The server with this IP address is not authoritative for the required zone" error.
Any help Would be appreciated, thanks in advance

Nice to hear that you are close in finding the problem. So in short:
You have enabled Zone transfers in DNS management console for the applicable zone
You have verified that your DNS is listening to the correct interfaces
You have enabled firewall rules to accept TCP and UDP traffic to port 53
You have checked if "BIND secondaries" option is applicable to your case
You have initiated a zone transfer from the secondary server

Web Dynpro application calling external web server using HTTPS giving error

Hello,
I don't know whether this is the right question in this forum but my ABAP web-dynpro applicaiton is expected to call another HTTP application on external web server through HTTPS. Presently it is calling through plain HTTP but we want to have HTTPS.
Here are the steps that we followed based on the link from help.sap.com
1] Received the certificate files from external web server
2] Created SSL Anonymous client
3] Imported the certificate files under this client and added into the certificate list
4] Re-started ICM
5] Created RFC Destination of type HTTP to connect to external server with SSL option and basic authentication. This RFC destination was working under plain HTTP.
When tried with Test connection it gave error "ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED".
Any idea what might be missing. Thanks in advance.
Regards
Rajeev

Used proper certificate after which the error went away

DMS Document Storage in External Content Server

Dear All,
We are working on a DMS scenario, where we need to store the document in an external content server, and not in SAP DB. We are evaluating the solutions around the content server, and we see that SAP provides a HTTP Interface to SAP Content Server, and this interface can be configured through OAC0 and OACT, and managed through CSADMIN. Now, a set of questions:
1. If we intend to use SAP Content Server, do we need to purchase additional license for it? Our understanding is that the software is delivered with SAP Installation DVD, and as such no licensing charges are required.
2. If we DO NOT intend to use SAP Content Server, and rather use an external content server (Possibly utilizing the File System at the OS level as a repository), how will the configuration of OAC0 and OACT look like in such a case? We definitely can not use HTTP Content Server as storage type, How will the entries be organized in this case?
Has anyone worked on a scenario like this? It will be really nice if you can share your experience and expertise in this regard.
Awaiting replies.
Thanks and Sincere Regards,
Sid

Hi Ravindra,
Thanks for the clarification. Do I understand correctly that, for a external content server (without an installation of SAP Content Server) also, we need to specify the storage type as HTTP Content Server ? But in such a case, how will the work processes be handled? As I understand, SAP Content Server engine will handle the incoming/outgoing requests through a Web Server. So, don't we need a similar arrangement for an external content server also? In that case, will the connection parameters be for a HTTP Content Server or for RFC Archive, where we can specify a RFC Destination of type G and connect through it?
Thanks and Regards,
Sid
