How do I change my server name (DNS) in Snow Leopard 10.6. ?

I stupidly set my server name to yahoo.com when installing Snow Leopard, and now I cannot get into the real Yahoo. When I try to go to yahoo's site from any browser (Safari/Firefox/Chrome) it cannot find the site (I think it is resolving to my server name). Thanks in advance for any help.

Thank you. I solved my problem by using OPEN DNS, which gave me instructions as follows:
Apple menu;
System Preferences;
Click Network;
Select 1st connection (that I simply deleted--127.something);
Click Advanced;
Select DNS tab;
Add the OPENDNS IP addresses using the + sign at bottom (208.67.220.220 and 208.67.222.222);
Click Apply.

  • How to change ASE server name in windows

    how to change the server name in Adaptive server enterprise running on windows

    Windows is going to require a few more steps if ASE is running as a service.
    Update all registry entries containing <servername> with <newservername>:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\SYBASE\Server
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SYBSQL_<servername>[ _BS | _XP ]
    NOTE: Doing a registry search on <servername> will bring up a ton of other locations, eg, legacy entries, ControlSet00X, etc ... not sure if all of these have to be changed, too ...
    NOTE: Haven't installed any of the latest ASE packages in windows so don't know if SAP's gone an changed the HKLM\SOFTWARE sub-branch name from SYBASE to SAP
    =========================
    In addition to Ryan's notes:
    - any other sysservers entries that refer to the old servername (eg, loopback)
    - any remote servers would need to update their external/remote logins, remote servers and/or proxy definitions ... as appropriate
    - if the ASE is involved in replication then you're looking at whole 'nother can of worms ... off the top of my head ... rs_databases, rs_idnames, rs_repdbs ... and of course any repdefs/subs that include the ASE name ?
    - obviously (?) any monitoring/maintenance/operational jobs ... documentation ...

  • How do I properly change the server name in mountain lion server?

    I need to change my server name to a FQDN, but tried this with Lion server in the past without success. I know in lion you'd use server app, but that's no longer avaiable in mountain lion server and I want to make sure I get this right the first time.
    Thanks!

    I was able to get everything working with some assistance from Apple's enterprise support. After changing the host name, the DNS was still not resolving properly and I couldn't turn on open directory so that I'd be able to start profile manager. The DNS interface is considerably different than that in previous versions of server. The network was set to manual ip with dhcp, which was pulling back an external IP. Overriding the DNS info coming in via the dhcp, setting it to localhost, resolved the issue.
    Thanks!

  • Changing the server name on package connection string.

    I have a connection string in a package which is a local connection string and not in project connection manager and isn't parameterize as well. Now I need to change a server name of the connection property without using editor. Can I do that and how ?
    Moyz Khan

    I agree about using configuration for connection string but unfortunately this is an inherited project/packages . And my task it to make these run as currently I don't have luxury to modified it.
    So I was able to change most of the connection string with below update
    update[SSISDB].[internal].[execution_parameter_values]
    setparameter_value=replace(cast(parameter_valueasvarchar),'OldServer',NEwServer)
    update[SSISDB].[internal].[object_parameters]
    set[design_default_value]= 
    replace( 
    cast([design_default_value]asvarchar(1000)),'OldServer','NEwServer')
    Now the only one its complaining is the Project connection string . If I know where to look and update that I might be able to run these packages .

    How can I change the account name in iCloud.  My email has changed and I want to change it on iCloud.

    To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    To change the ID on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, choose Delete for all the prompts (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in with the changed ID.

  • How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties  file?

    How Can i specify multiple server names in rwservlet.properties file without clustering?
    I am using oracle 10g Application server. we have 3 servers Repsvr1, RepSvr2 and RepSvr3. Now i need to configure rwservlet.properties file to point to these servers based on any running report. i got 3 keymap files with reports info.
    Sample entry in the key map file is:
    key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
    key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
    rwservlet.properties file letting me to enter only one servername. Even though i merged all 3 keymap files into 1, still i have the server name issue. If i leave the server to the default name still i am getting the below error.
    REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server Repsvr1 failed. However, i know the default rep_<servername> would be used incase we dont have SERVER=<value> parameter in the rwservlet.properties file.
    If i specify the servername in the rwservlet.properties file then only Repsvr1 reports are working fine and other 2 server reports are giving the same error like
    REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed.
    how can i configure the info which will work all 3 reports. 2 Port servers are invoking using oracle forms and report server is invoking using ASP pages.
    If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error, whenever i am trying to integrate all 3 to workable i am getting binding error. if i exclude the server from rwservlet.properties still i am getting the same error.

    My RELOAD_KEYMAP setting is YES only.As i said If i specify Server name & Key map file in rwservlet.properties one at a time, all the reports are working without any error.
    keymap file entries
    key1: server=Repsvr1 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path2\reports\Report1.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
    key2: server=Repsvr2 userid=xxx/yyy@dbname report=D:\Web\path1\path3\reports\Report2.rdf destype=cache desformat=PDF %*
    If i use http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key1 should bring the report from Repsvr1 and http://server.domain:port/reports/rwservlet? cmdkey = key2 should bring the report from Repsvr2, but i am getting an error from Repsvr2 saying that REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server repsvr2 failed.
    Only Servername Repsvr1 is in rwservlet.properties file. Now what is the best option to by pass the server from rwservlet.properties file and should be from keymap file. if i comment server name in rwservlet.properties file still i am getting REP-51002: Bind to Reports Server <<Server Name>> failed error for both keys.

  • A very simple question: how to obtain the mail server name?

    In our JSP application, at one point an email will be sent to notify one event. Currently, that is done by using the html tag: mailto. To have more control on the email in tems of context format (a bad layout right now) and others. I would like to have it processed at servlet by using the JavaMail API, so that it have a nice format and have the sender's email address right in case email client is not installed in the machine where the browser in. The JavaMail API is straight forward. The question is how to obtain the mail server name, and the sender's email address if there is one?
    Thanks.
    v.

    How to obtain the mail server's name? It's your server, you should know its name. Or if it isn't your server, you should ask the administrator for its name. Point is, you need to decide in advance what server you are going to use and hard-code its name into the program or into a properties file.
    And how to obtain the client's e-mail address? You have to ask the client, probably by putting a box in the HTML and asking them to type it.

  • How to get the report server name in Forms 10g.

    How to get the report server name in Forms 10g.
    I'm using the Application Server 10g 10.1.2.

    Hello,
    I do not think that you can get this value from anywhere. A solution is to put the Reports server name in an environment variable stored in the /forms/server/default.env file, then to query it at Forms runtime with the TOOL_ENV.Getvar() built-in.
