How to Install and integrate the Portal with a external DIT

We have an existing enterprise directory with more than 1000 users.
The existing system runs on Portal 3.x and has a profile directory for the portal system and the enterprise directory is used for Authentication.
We are migrating the Portal to 6.x and the requirement is to have a single directory server for all the applications ( portal ,messaging and calendar).
The problem is the enterprise directory also manages other applications and has a entirely different DIT to that of portal .
Can the Portal , Messaging and Calendar point to a different DIT ..
Just a small example for the problem we face here.
The actual portal install has a
<base-dn>
    |
    |___________________________________
    |                                        |                                       |
ou=services           o=<company>            ou=DSAME
                                                                                       etc.
But the existing Production system has the following DIT
<base-dn>
   |
c=country
   |
ou=organization
   |____________________________________
   |                                        |                                          |
ou=apps                        o=customers                   etcSo they want the Portal ,messaging and the calendar applications to have their attributes under the " ou=apps" branch .
Is this possible ,.if not why and any other possible alternative solutions are also appreciated .
thanx in advance.
( sorry i am facing some formatting problems ..Hope u get the question right)

You can share the DIT.
It will however be a tricky config with the default tools.
When you add a user with the portal gui you will miss some classes needed for mail and calendar. If you add the user in the mail console you will miss some classes for the portal.
You have to use a tool that adds all the required stuff for the user in ldap if the user shall be able to use the portal, the calendar and the mailsystem. But of course... you have the ldap console...

    Hi,
    Most of these integrations are prebuilt. Look for AIA/PIP.
    If you check out the presentations from OOW there were session on how other customers have done this.

    How to install and use the Khmer unicode Khmer MEF1 and Khmer MEF2?
    from www.mef.gov.kh in the bottom of the page, you can get the unicode for the ms office

    I think that stuff is for windows, a waste of time trying to use it on a Mac.
    There is no need to download anything for Khmer on a Mac.  Apple provides Khmer fonts and keuyboards with OS X.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Type in another language
    MS Word for Mac does not support Khmer.  Use TextEdit, Pages, Nisus Writer, LibreOffice instead

    Hi,
    one possible solution is to use an intermediate array. The intermediate array should be used in the user interface. When new data is entered the VI should read each element and then compare to the elements in the stored array. If all elements are different then update the array, otherwise display a fault message.
    You could use asequence activated when the Enter button is pressed. In the first frame you would compare the First array with the stored array. it is probably best to use a Boolean indicator to show if the data is valid Make sure you declare this as a local variable.
    With the sequence you can perform the comparisons in several seperate frames or in one frame with a OR to link the results. For large numbers of comparisons I prefer to use m
    ultiple frames because otherwise the screen becomes a maze of wires and other programmers who may need to maintain the code in the future will find it hard to follow a single frame.
    Once all the data items have been compared then the following sequence should contain a CASE statement of type True/False. Link a readable copy of your local variable to the selector of this statement. Then in the FALSE case (Assuming you have linked the boolean to be false when no data is duplicated) copy the new array to the stored array. In the TRUE case bring up an error message.
    So long as your arrays are not too large and you do not use this technique in too many places in your code the processor overhead should not be badly affected. For frequent use of such a caomparison in several VIs you may want to create a dedicated subVI for the task. For very large arrays you should seek a different solution.
    Hope that helps a bit.
    Good luck,

    Try this solution:
    The step-by-step installation guide can be found in the documentation included in the installation media. (\Documentation\SystemSetup\AdministratorGuide_SQL.pdf).
    Below are some important parts that you should pay attention to during the Installation process.
    Resolution

    I want to install and use the Gnome-Do(http://do.davebsd.com) in my box.
    Please help me regarding this.
    With Regards

    According to Google, Gnome-Do has known issues about CPU bugs and hogs and the latest incarnation does not seem to be available for RHEL and clones. You should have more luck with Linux Desktop distributions like Fedora and Ubuntu. Or you could try to build from source using the info at: http://do.davebsd.com/wiki/Installing_Do.

  • How to export and import the Portal Components

    Hi,
    I had developed few components like (Forms, Reports, Frames etc.,) in Oracle Portal release 2. Now, I need to make available all the components on my Client's machine. I like to know how to export and import these components.
    If any can help in this, it will be a great help for me...
    Thanks in Advance...

    The migration of any Portal DB provider components, has the following steps.
    Assume that you are migrating a form component form_X.
    1) Click the export link of the form_x.
    (this will take you to create transport screen).
    2) Specify a name of the transport set which you are going to create. (eg., "My form_X transportset")
    (Since the objects are migrated using a container which is in other words called as 'Transport Set').
    3) In that select the export now button.
    (this will mark your form component form_X for export).
    4) Verify that the status of the transport is 'Extract Complete'
    (check with the browse transport screen in Export/Import Portlet under Admin tab).
    5) Now, the object information is extracted into transport set tables used by Portal Export/Import Utility.
    6) Go to that particular transport set, (browse transport) and download the script available.
    7) That script will lead you to various steps,
    (create a dump ).
    8) In the target instance, import that dump using the same script again.
    9) Merge the contents of the dump (form_X information) into any of the application.
    (Import option => in the export/import portlet under admin tab).
    10) Verify that the status of the transport set is 'Merge Complete'.
    Now, the object is migrated and ready for use.
    (Here are explaining the export/import process in detail.
    You can refer the export/import manuals.

    1. Click the Start button.
    2. Search for Internet Explorer.
    3. Do not click on "Internet Explorer (64-bit)" or "Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
    4. Click on "Internet Explorer."
    5. That will open Internet Explorer 8, 32-bit edition.
    6. Now you can download, install, and use Flash Player. (It is used automatically on websites that support it.)
    7. In the future, make sure you don't use Internet Explorer 64-bit edition. Delete any Internet Explorer shortcut icons that you were formally using. Make sure that any Internet Explorer icons that you now use, are opening the 32-bit edition. To see what edition you are using, click the question mark near the upper-right corner of a webpage and click "About Internet Explorer." If you don't see "64-bit" on the popup, that means you are using the 32-bit edition.

  • How do Install and make FFmpeg work with Video DownloadHelper?

    I use FireFox v.29 in Windows XP; I installed Video DownloadHelper. I want to convert the videos as soon as I download them. In the preferences of the extension there's a box that says "enable conversion". As I check that box I'm asked to install an external application to do that. I press the button that says "install/update converter". This opens a page of the official site of Video Download helper. It says I need to install FFmpeg to convert the videos. I go to ffmpeg.org to download it, the download page tells me I must dowload it from http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/. So I donwload the 32-bit static build and I extract its files from the compressed folder.
    That's as far as I go. There's no installation file inside; there are three executable files inside: ffmpeg,exe, ffplay.exe, and ffprobe.exe. I've opened all three of them and entered the Video DownloadHelper preferences after that. The problem is that when I try once again to check the box for "enable conversion" I'm once again told that I have to install the external application. What am I doing wrong?
    In the official site of Video DownloadHelper there are a step by step explanation but for another converter: ConvertHelper, so they aren't really helpful.
    Can you please help me?

    Hi,
    The add on support site is located on their add on homepage [http://www.downloadhelper.net/documentation.php Download Helper add on support site]. It did not require me to download an external .exe file?

  • How to install and use the CP2102 USART to USB Converter?

    First off, I did a quick search and found that some people had had success in that the cp210x driver was already installed on their machines. I did a modprobe and it returned nothing (not an error).
    I searched around on the net a bit and found a very useful USART to USB converter bridge (http://www.nexuscyber.com/cp2102-usb-to … Mgod5UQAdQ). The CP2102 is a programmable device with many settings insofar as the data framing is concerned. As such, a driver for the device must be used to interface and modify these parameters.
    On the Silabs website I found this driver (http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/page … ivers.aspx) for linux (kernel > 3.x.x). The problem is that this driver is just a single C program with zero documentation. An include make file is about as useful considering it has a single line in it that fails (for me) at run-time.
    obj-m = cp210x.o
    KVERSION = $(shell uname -r)
    all:
    make -C /lib/modules/$(KVERSION)/build M=$(PWD) modules
    clean:
    make -C /lib/modules/$(KVERSION)/build M=$(PWD) clean
    The driver source can be found here (http://pastie.org/private/kulx2zqdyvkafoxekwjq)
    Where my make error is

    There is no documentation aside from:
    make ( your cp210x driver )
    cp cp210x.ko to /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/drivers/usb/serial
    insmod /lib/modules/<kernel-version/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.ko
    insmod cp210x.ko
    Can anyone provide some guidance on the steps to install this driver (or at least where to look) and why there is such a lack of documentation? Are there assumptions here that I am not aware of? How is anyone suppose to use this? If you look in the source there are structures being used as arguments to functions that are never defined as far as I can tell. Perhaps they are part of the header files included at the top, but I could not find some of those on my machine either.
    Has anyone had success using this device?

    First, I think you have a mismatched Baud.  Check your settings in GtkTerm.  It could also be the uController.  I know you said you have it set for 9600 Baud, but are you sure?  The divisor settings are dependent on your clock frequency.  Are you sure you are using the correct divisors for the frequency of your crystal?  And are you using a crystal, ceramic oscillator, or external oscillator for your time base?
    I did not think the internal RC oscillators were that bad off, so I was using the internal 8MHz (DIV8 = 0 fuse bit). Taking your advice I just refused the AVR and set it to use a 20MHz clock (external crystal oscillator) to no avail. The setting in GTKterm is certainly 9600 baud.Referencing the datasheet for the Atmega328P we have:
    Which gives a a UBRR register value of 129 corresponding to normal speed (U2Xn = 0). This is all computed for me at compile-time via this formula:
    20,000,000/(16*9600) - 1 = 129.2 ~ 129 truncated.
    That the two devices can communicate tells me they both might be using the same wrong Baud.
    I was also suspicious of this .. I do not have a trivial way to test this though. Perhaps some workaround using timers is about the best I can do; no oscilloscope here. Doing a quick high-level test I did find something rather interesting though. Both devices are set to run at 9600 baud. One device is operating at 8MHz (internal oscillator) and the other is using an external 20MHz crystal. I am getting UART communication between the devices, but certainly not the characters I'm sending..
    The other problem is that I think you have "Local Echo" turned on in GtkTerm.  This places the system in "Half Duplex" mode in which data are not expected to be echoed from the Atmel.  That you are getting two characters when the pins are shorted tells me you get the local echo and the loopback.  Then the loopback is missing, you still get the local echo.   Also, make sure you have parity turned off.
    GTKterm does not actually show you what you are typing into the terminal. That is, when you type a character then nothing is displayed to the screen. Presumably this character is sent out as you type it. I was under the impression that local echo would just echo what I type to the screen as well as send it out. Thank you for the clarification.
