Ftp and telnet to Solaris 8/9

Hi,
When I telnet or ftp to a Unix machine running Solaris 8 or 9, it usually takes about 3 minutes to give me the login prompt, does anyone know why it takes so long to get the prompt?
Thanks!
Joseph

Look in your /etc/nsswitch.conf file. This shows the order in which your system resolves IP addresses. Specifically, the "hosts" line.
If you are using dns, use this for the hosts entry:
hosts: files dns
If you are not using dns, use this line:
hosts: files
Also, make sure your dns is working correctly (if you are using it).
Populate your /etc/resolv.conf file with the following info:
domain yourdomain.com
nameserver IP.OF.DNS.SERVER
nameserver IP.OF.ANOTHER.DNS
Test it out with the nslookup command. For example:
# nslookup www.sun.com
The response should look something like this:
Server: DNS1-INTRANET.yourdomain.com
Address: IP.OF.DNS.SERVER
Name: www.sun.com
Address: 64.124.140.199

install oracle Linux 5.0 update 3 i am not able to telnet are ftp .. i am able to use ssh via putty any idea

Hello,
In order to start ftp (run this commands as root):
#service vsftpd start-to make sure that ftp starts everytime you reboot the system:
#chkconfig vsftpd onI order to start telnet (not recommended though):
-first you need to edit this file:
[root@kido xinetd.d]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/krb5-telnet
# default: off
# description: The kerberized telnet server accepts normal telnet sessions, \
#              but can also use Kerberos 5 authentication.
service telnet
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd
        log_on_failure += USERID
        disable         = yes
}-it should like this
[root@kido xinetd.d]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/krb5-telnet
# default: off
# description: The kerberized telnet server accepts normal telnet sessions, \
#              but can also use Kerberos 5 authentication.
service telnet
        flags           = REUSE
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = root
        server          = /usr/kerberos/sbin/telnetd
        log_on_failure += USERID
        disable         = no
}-after this, restart xinetd server:
[root@kido xinetd.d]# service xinetd restart
Stopping xinetd:                                           [ OK ]
Starting xinetd:                                           [ OK ]I strongly advice you to use ssh instead of telnet (it's far more secure):
#service sshd start
#chkconfig sshd onkido

Newbie Q about terminal and telnet

Not sure this is the right forum but I posted on the osx server threads with no reply so here goes.
Q. turning off the wan side telnet port on my router using telnet via the terminal.?
I've seen instructions some where about how to use telnet to turn off sip in a router re getting ichat to work. Can I close or stealth my telnet port in a similar way. also ping and ftp and 80 are open not stealth. (re shields up site.)
I'm used to seeing no real traffic over my old & possibly dead router unless I initiate it. I've just got the echolife hg520s over which their is continual if minor traffic and it bugs me.
Btw... in the firmwares http gui I've disabled the cwmp option and selected all wan side options as disabled including ping and telnet.??
Thanks

This is very strange. Being the paranoid kind of guy that I am, whenever I go on business travel, I run nmap against my home network (I'd do it more frequently from the office, but my employer's IT Secret Police blocks almost all outgoing destination ports), and this last trip (last week) I found telnet 23, http 80, LM Social Server 1111 (what the heck is that?) and 52869 open. In Terminal, I typed telnet {myHomeDomainName} and got a login prompt to my modem! Previous nmap about one month prior all was ok. I freaked out.
Once back home, I could not close the ports, even though the modem's configuration page said that the only port forwarded was my ssh port (as desired) and that remote management was disabled. I hard reset the router, I reinstalled the firmware from the critical recovery disk image, and I reinstalled the firmware update -- multiple times. That would close 'em off, for about an hour or two. I was on the phone with my ISP (Qwest) about three or more times for about 45 mins per call, and then, mysteriously, the ports have closed with no interaction on my part and have remained closed thus far for two days now. (It just so happens we have a WAP at work for visitors, puts 'em outside our really restrictive firewall, but when there, you can't access anything inside the corporate LAN when you do that, but I affiliated to that WAP anyways so I could run nmap this afternoon during lunch.) So I'm wondering whether my ISP's Secret Police have a backdoor programmed into their firmware set for the DSL modems that they sell, but they shut it down (at least temporarily) since I caught 'em, well, caught somebody, with my ports open?
Check your firewall logs for unusual activity: in Terminal, as admin-privileged user, type
+sudo cat /var/log/ipfw.log+
if unusual probes or activity, get on the phone with your ISP, ask why your modem config pages say your firewall is on and no ports are forwrded but telnet's open, and if you have unusual acitivity in those logs, ask 'em to start an investigation.

Log ssh and telnet connections

Ftp and http access over XDB repository is not allowed...

When I try to execute the following command on a reasonably fresh Oracle 11 installation:
insert into "XMLTEST" ( "name", "xmlfof" ) values ( 'small', DBMS_XDB.GETCONTENTXMLTYPE('/public/small.xml') );
-- The schema is correctly registered, the file "small.xml" is in the /public repository folder, the user has every conceivable role and priviledge
-- http access works fine from a remote location, tried to execute the command on the server and from remote system...
I get the following error message:
ORA-31020: Der Vorgang ist nicht zulässig, Ursache: For security reasons, ftp and http access over XDB repository is not allowed on server side ORA-06512: in "XDB.DBMS_XDB", Zeile 1915
Searching for an answer on the forum didn't produce any concreate explanation... Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

As it turns out, the XML file contained a reference to a DTD at an external web-site, which caused the problem - it was identical to that described here:
Re: ORA-31020 when using XML with external DTD or entities
After removing the reference, everything works perfectly...

Is SNMP RO and telnet good enough for IPM?

Dear friends,
I have only SNMP RO access to the router and telnet access as well from Ciscoworks LMS.
But i dont have SNMP RW access.
Is it possible that i configure ip sla monitor manually on the routers / switches and just use IPM to poll these routers and collect the SLA statistics?
Thanks a lot
Gautam

IPM requires read-write access. However, you could try configuring the collectors on the devices manually, then import those collectors into IPM using the "ipm importcollector" cli command. I haven't tested doing this without having SNMP RW configured, but it should work. IPM will just not be able to fully manage the collectors, but it should be able to poll them.

I was running Foxfire 3.6.9 and wanted to use FTP Program add-on and it did not appear to load but appeared but then would be installed but not run or appear under tools. So I deleted Foxfire 3.6.9 and down loaded to 3.5.9 so it could get FTP and it is doing the same could not install. Even after I registered my copy. The last time I used this program it showed up under tools and worked great. any suggestions on whats going on and how I can get around this?.by ralphd3g

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

Difference between Seeburger FTP and OFTP adapters

hi,
Can anybody tell me the difference between Seeburger FTP and OFTP adapters?
On what basis should one make a business decision as to which adapter to go for?
Kindly help urgently.
Regards,
Loveena

Hi ! Loveena
Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.
Seeburger Adapters are used to Connect the applications which are using Message protocol/Transport protocol as CrossIndustry(payment), VAN, OFTP, AS2(EDIINT), Generic and EDI based applications.

OFTP ist a communication protocol. This has nothing to do with the format you have to transfer.
regards the format you have to clear at which standard you have to transfer the messages. This can be any EDI format. At OFTP area the standard are often VDA or ODETTE.
You can create this messages using different EDI adapters (of course also the mendelson adapter ).
Regards OFTP you need additional software which handle the transfer based on the OFTP standard. Mostly you also need an ISDN card for using this protocol.
We can support you with this software for OFTP transport too.
More info also available at http://www.mendelson-e-c.com/.
have a look at the ACTIS OFTP Adapter

Metadevices and Upgrade from Solaris 2.6 to 8

Hello,
I want upgrade my current Solaris system from 2.6 to 8. My filesystem are mirrored metadevices including root partion. Are there any problems during upgrade? Did anybody recommend to detach metadevices and mirrors?
Thanks in advance
Ivette

The wikipedia page on solaris http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_(operating_system) shows the changes in the system as newer versions came out. I'd highly suggest getting a test box and setting up Solaris 10 on it, and getting a feel for the new install and in particular, ZFS. It's been a number of years since I last used 2.6, but Solaris 10 is vastly better in many ways, including stability. With ZFS you also don't have to use fsck. The best features of Solaris 10 are the new ZFS file system, zones, snapshots, and the new services (rather than rc scripts). If you are going to set up Solaris 10, it's best to immediately start with bootable ZFS file systems rather than trying to upgrade your UFS file systems later. Security is also vastly improved over 2.6, as well as not having to use the old OpenWindows. Also find out what changes you'll need to make to have your old apps run, with all the changes in libraries and stuff since then.

C and C++ applications - Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 transition

I am about to be involved in the process of building and deloying C and C++ applications on Solaris 10, that currently are built and run on Solaris 8. I do not anticipate significant problems, based on a review of the Solaris 10 release notes (particularly the End-of Software statements). However, I was curious to know if any one from the the Solaris community may have lessons learned that they would be willing to share in regards to this activity.
Thanks,

Pull compressed file (.gz format) via FTP and place on Application server

Hello!
Greetings.
We have a requirement where a compressed file in the format *.gz is to be pulled via FTP and saved to the application server after extracting.
I searched the forums and found options to pull text or XL files, but nothing about pulling a compressed file. I wished to know if there is any process for the same. After pulling the file, it is to be saved to Application server after extracting. My doubts are as below:
1. How to pull a *.gz file via FTP (Need batch processing)
2. Can I extract and rename th file before saving it to applciation server? Or I need a temporary location to place the file before extraction?
Any inputs are appreciated.
Thanks,
Shishir.

Hi Sandra.
Thanks for the confirmation.
There is a change is the requirement. We need to Poll the FTP server for the file for the duration of one week every month.
When the file is found, we are to take the *.gz file, extract and put on the application server.
My question is how do we poll the application FTP server? I searched the forums and found a few threads that say that an FTP adapter is to be setup for polling the FTP server and then we can schedule it using u201CAvailability Time Planningu201D.
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/11/26/adapter-scheduling--hail-sp-19-
I wished to know if that is the only way to approach this requirement.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Shishir.

Stetting up FTP and SFTP adapters for the same interface

Experts-
I have a situation in which client has a requirement to setup both FTP and SFTP adapters (from adapetive adapters) for the same interface. They want to have a copy of file locally and also want a file to be sent out securly using SFTP. In my interface which was previously developed they have used one business system and added FTP and SFTP to the same. If try to add new Receiver Agreement it will say that the object already exists as the Interface Mapping is same.
Please send me any suggestions which would resolve my problem

Hi Hari,
As you cannot create two Receiver agreement using only one receiver interface , please create a new receiver Interface, add that in interface determination step and then assing a different channel to new receiver agreement.
If your requirement is to store the file ,i would suggest write the file in your unix directory using NFS( /usr/sap...). then run a AFT job (if already set up in your landscape) to transfer file securly to target destination.Not sure if its feasible in your case otherwise you can use SFTP for the secure transfer.
Best Regards
Srinivas
