Help/advice needed on installing Communications Suite!

Hi,
I'm still a new boy with Solaris so this is going to be more of a training excersize then anything else.
Basically I have a Sun E420r server in a home rack along with some Netra T105's to train me up with Solaris. I would like to install the Java Communication Suite on the E420r, however I haven't been able to find any install guides for it on the sun.docs website.
Ok being too hasty with no experiance I downloaded the Enterprise System first and tried installing all components at once (bad idea!) which didn't go in well at all as many of them failed. I have now decided to switch to the Communications Suite standalone installer but I'm still having problems with some components already installed from the Enterprise Suite installer and also I'm not sure how to even get the services up and running.
Sorry if I sound like a total beginner, I have manged to get many things up and running with Solaris 9 and 10 so far but could not find any guides for this at all. I did find this page:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/coll/1312.2
which is ok for when you have the system setup but what do I do to get it to that stage??
The server also runs the Secure Global Desktop Software coupled with the Sun Ray Server Software of which a Ray client is running off the system. But I really wanted to experiment with the Communications suite too as currently I have Scalix (MS Exchange equivelent) running on a CentOS Linux based system which was relatively straight forward to setup using CLI or GUI it's pretty simple - with documentation of course :-)
If anyone can just give me a hint or point me in the right direction I'd be really greatful!!
Many thanks

Many thanks again Shane!

Correct. Thunderbird doesn't have a personal-addressbook extension at this time. For synchronisation with hand-held devices, you would use http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite/Sun+Java+Mobile+Communications+Documentation
This is in part due to a lack of standards for addressbook/calendar data. The CalDAV/CardDAV standards will help in the future. We are already working on the CalDAV side of the equation:
http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite/Calendar+Server+7+Information
Seems like you work at Sun :-D
This kinda goes out to everyone that works there but just keep doing what you guys do best and creating amazing software and hardware. I really hope the Oracle takeover won't disrupt that at all as I am totally taken by Solaris I think it's awsome!!!
-Too bad that I got into so late though as I've been using Linux since around 2004-2005 and Solaris for only round say 3-4 months now which means in comparison my experience is really limited. However on the plus side things are shaping up very well as I seem to be nearly in a job which means that I will make lots of use of Solaris OS and depending on what the company wants I may be involved with setting Solaris boxes up too which would be amazing as it would give me a whole lot of opportunity to learn much more then what I can with 4, 10 years old servers as part of my home lab. Although the position is no way guaranteed but things are looking really positive.
All I can say is that I can't wait to use Solaris in a professional environment but also can't wait to get funding for newer more powerful machines for my lab so I can actually make use of a lot more Sun software like clustering and Java Web server and all the cool freebies which can be downloaded!

  • Multiple Xserve config- help/advice needed...

    We have just purchased a second xserve (quadcore) to go along with our current xserve (G5 dual-core). We run FTP, web(wikis, blogs, etc that use the LDAP for authentication), LDAP, Open Directory, softwareupdate, DNS, NetInstall (occasionally) and AFP services.
    I would like to share the services across the two servers- using the new, more powerful machine to host the home directories, AFP, FTP, etc; and the older machine to handle web, etc. My concern is that I would like to have both use the same LDAP so that I only have to enter in users once, and so that everyone can access their files via FTP at one IP.
    Is this even the best way to be thinking about implementing this? Will assigning one server as the OD master, and the other as the OD replica provide both servers with the same LDAP directory? I have clearly never done this before, and I am very excited to be able to use two servers to increase the efficiency. Thanks for any help/advice.

    Yes

    Yes
    I've done this myself many times. The relevant Admin Manuals do have enough information outlining what needs to be done:
    http://www.apple.com/server/resources/
    Steve's link is something you should definitely look at. There are some minor differences but nothing to get worried about. Both Servers have to be exactly the same OS and SSH needs to be enabled.

  • Help/advice needed - cannot restore iPod!

    My iPod was working fine, until I tried to update it! Then my computer froze, and the iPod just showed the 'Do Not Disconnect' for hours. The iPod icon wasn't showing up in iTunes or on my desktop, so I disconnected it, and now I just get the little folder and exclamation point icon.
    I have followed all the advice on the various Apple documents,, but every time I try to restore it, the update doesn't seem to recognise the iPod, and keeps telling me 'Plug in iPod', even though it is plugged in. I have tried using different USB ports, and the iPod does show up in My Computer (as Drive F), but the updater refuses to recognise it.
    I have tried -
    Resetting iPod
    Putting it into Disk Mode
    Have reinstalled Itunes, and redownloaded the iPod updater. Have also tried using old updaters, as well as reinstalling off the original CD that came with the iPod.
    Have installed Service Pack 2, run Scan Disk, disconnected firewalls, AVG anti-virus etc.
    My iPod is fully charged, but when I turn it on I keep getting the Apple logo, then the folder/exclamation point icon.
    Any help/advice much appreciated!
    Thank you

  • Help, advice needed for learning Action Script

    I don't have any experience with programing and even scripting and I can't find tutorials for total beginners. I started to read this one
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ActionScript/3.0_ProgrammingAS3/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9 b8cbfe-7ff7.html
    but I have difficulties understanding the explanations.
    If you have any advice and pointers to tutorials for total dummy beginners I will greatly  appreciate it.

    I’m 27 years old and one month ago I started study ActionScript 3.0. After red a lot of forums with recommendations about what need to do for study as3 I clear next things:
    Try to visit forums about as3 and discus with people about your problems and also try to help other solve their problems (you can help a lot of people to solve their problems, you can find a lot answers to your questions, you can share your experience with others)
    Try to read books about as3 (in books you can find all theory and some examples for this theory, so this info will be very helpful for you, because it’s a fundamental knowledge what you must to know)
    Try to visit sites with tutorials (on the net you can find a lot sites with tutorials and there you step by step will study a lot of things)
    Share your knowledge with others (create your blog or something else where you will show to people your examples of work, where you will write about as3 and will share your experiences and knowledge, this can give you chance to consolidate your knowledge and give opportunity other people study as3)
    Try to separate big not understandable problem to smaller(after you find answer to all small problems you can find answer to big problem)
    And the main what you must remember then YOU MUST CODING EVERY DAY! (I think without it you never been a as3 coder.)
    I can recommend next sites witch can help you to study ActionScript 3.0:

  • Help/Advice needed on setting up home office network please

    Hi
    I hope someone can help me with some technical difficulties i am having with a home / office network.
    Computer equipment i have is:
    2 desktop PCs on same floor  different rooms.
    2 laptop PCs to be used wired in office and/or Wifi if possible any room
    2 Apple mac Laptops to be used wired in office and/or Wifi in any room.
    1 HP Laser printer with network enabled
    1 TB HDD network enabled
    1 Linksys WiFi extender unit
    Connection equipment:
    I have an NTL Cable modem
    Linksys WR54G ver 2 router ( with the option of going to aLinksys WRT300N ver 2 router)
    A Netgear Dual speed hub DS116
    What i would like to do is have one office holding 1 desktop pc, 1 HP Printer and the other office holding the 2nd desktop PC with USB printer attached. I would like to be able to go Wifi around the house for all PC & Mac Laptops with the option of connecting them by wire in the office if required.
    Idealy i would like to be able to share files, folders and printers between all units as well as all having internet access through the router's firewall.
    I also use Zone Alarm Pro.
    At the moment i have in one office the WR54G attached to the cable modem with one Desktop PC wired in to one of the 4 ports. in a 2nd port i have a cable going to the 2nd office into the DS116.
    Connected to the DS116 is the 2nd Desktop PC, the HP Laser printer and the 1TB HDD.
    The Wifi extender is in another room.
    For some reason every now and then the whole system goes wobbly and seems to loose settings at which point internet access is denied and ihave to go back to 1 pc into the cable modem and starting rebuilding the network.
    Can anyone give me an idiots guide to settin this kind of system up with specificsettings on each item if possible.
    I would say i would also like to use 1 desktop PC for gaming now and then which at the moment sems very hit and miss with speed etc.
    Any help warmly welcomed

    Following on from Steve's advice I would probably not bring the unwanted channels all the way down on the faders, either in a live mix or if mixing subsequently in Audition, as it may change the background acoustic too much. Leaving a bit of the background mics faded up a bit helps to pull the whole recording together and also means you have a better chance of getting all the faders back up in time for when they are needed without missing anything.
    I didn't actually touch on this at all - perhaps I should have. There's definitely more than one way to undertake this sort of operation, and it rather depends on exactly what equipment you have available. So far, we know you've got potentially 16 channels available, but have no idea how you were planning to cover the different aspects of it. For instance, I would always consider it worth it to have a pair of ambience mics up all the time - which would get around this particular problem anyway....
    The other thing you really have to pay quite a bit of attention to before you start is making damn sure (the previous day) that everything is in good order, and it all works when connected together. And if, for instance, you're going to rely on radio mic feeds from clergy,  that you can tap into these without difficulty, etc. Make sure your mic stands are not falling apart, and that you've got all the right mic stand adaptors - amazing how many times people have screwed that one up! 
    What this generally means is that even if you're familiar with the location, you still need to do a reccé just to make sure that everything in the venue is as you think. And if you can grab a dedicated assistant for the event, go for it. This can make carting stuff about a lot easier, and provide additional security for your equipment. And sometimes other benefits too, like tea...

  • I have a new computer and need to install Creative Suite 5

    I have downloaded the files with no problem.  I can start the install, enter the serial number, log in with my Adobe ID -- and when it gets to approx. 10% -- the installation stops and asks for a disk with this message.  Please insert disk Adobe Design Premium 5 - English to continue.  I don't have media, just the downloaded files.  I have restarted my computer -- logged into my Adobe account and confirmed the serial number, downloaded the files again and started over.  But it hangs up at exactly the same spot each time.  What suggestions do you have on how i need to proceed?

  • Help/advice Needed! Paid for 2 years with no servi...

    I have been with BT for 2 years since we moved into our first home, paying approx £40 a month for phone line and broadband! When we initially signed up we were asked various questions to see what product would be best for us, we told them we wouldn't be using phone line as we use our mobiles and would only use the wifi for childrens iPad! We were told to download BT app and log into wifi using email and password which we have done for 2 years! The wifi has always been very slow Nd hit and miss but we live in middle of no where so thought it was our area! After 2 years we have decided to start using home phone for childrens school purposes! So we bought phone, plugged it in and no dialling tone! Called BT who sent out engineer within a week! When engineer arrived he asked where is our hub? My response being whats a hub? After explaining how we usually connect to wifi he explained that that's not our wifi and a hotspot! So basically been paying for over 2 years never used land line or Internet due no fault of our own! We were never told about a hub or received one? The engineer told me to call and complain so which I did over 3 weeks ago! The advisor says he would fill in a form and pass on to his manager, but sent is a hub out which is charged us for? The hub has came and I still can't get any internet after spending another 2 hours on phone doing various tests they can't get it working and are sending out another engineer and was told could possibly be charged £129 for! As you can imagine I am furious with? I still haven't heard back from anyone and have sent a complaints form in also! Can anyone give me any advice on where I stand as I'm not very good with technology? Thanks

  • Satellite P100-307 exchanging HDD Help/Advice needed

    Hello,
    Thanks for your recent advice on exchanging my 200 GB HDD in to an 500 GB Sized HDD.
    Can you please let me know, what i have to do with the new HDD so that my P100 can recognize it (do i have to format it etc.) ? I would like to mirror the existing HDD onto the new one.....how does it go ?
    Sorry to bother you with this Beginner-Questions........
    RGDS

    Windows will recognise a new hard drive (I presume you will be booting the machine from cd) and it it needs formatting it will tell you. You may then have to change the format from FAT32 to NTFS - Windows help will tell you how to do that..
    If you are wanting to mirror the old disc image onto the new disc then I think some google research is in order eg "mirror new laptop drive" there are old versions of disk imaging programs availanble for free download that will handle NTFS. names to search for include Acronis and Norton Ghost.
    How are you going to "connect" the old and new drives - eg external usb caddy, across a network, mount both drives in a pc.
    You can copy the all files using the DOS command xcopy with the include hidden files/folders switch.
    Does your old drive have a hidden partition for recovery purposes and you need to decide how you handle that.

  • Help please need to install java update 3

    Just updated to java update 4. I have medical software on the computer and it breaks. I need to roll back one version. Can anyone help me out with this? 10.6.6 OS

    OK, there is a method, but it is risky at best. Backup your data before proceeding*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    Note where it says on these instructions rm -rf:
    http://weblogs.java.net/blog/joshy/archive/2007/11/howto_removej.html
    Change that "f" instruction to i (the letter I as in I am).
    So you would say:
    sudo rm -ri /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/(whatever the version is that is newer)
    If you are unsure of the version, look it up first by typing:
    ls -aF /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
    And determine which ones are newer.
    Answer 'n' to the rm once files are listed that you don't want. Careful not to go trigger happy with the 'y' as it automatically takes every 'y' response as an affirmative.

  • Help! Need to install CS5 on Surface Pro2

    How do I install my existing copy of photoshop CS5 on a new device without a disc drive (in my case, a Surface Pro 2 Tablet)?  I have the original installation CD and product code, but I don't see a way to download a trial of this software from Adobe so that I can validate it after installation - I assume that would be the way to do this with newer versions of products.  I don't have access to an external CD drive.
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
