How to properly setup domain name ISP v. Registrar

Mac OS Server 10.6 (SLS). I have a static IP which my ISP assigned an alias for ease of their management. I have a domain name from a registrar (not from the same ISP) which is registered using their DNS with an MX record, A records, etc (they do not offer PTR records). When I install SLS and enter the route IP address, it picks up the alias of my ISP which is not my domain name. I am using OpenDNS as my DNS server.
When I ping my domain, it properly resolves to my IP address. When I nslookup my ip address, it non-authoriatively tells me the alias assigned by my ISP (and not my registrar). When I dig my IP address, it shows me my registrars name. Regardless, under Server Admin the ethernet says my DNS is the ISPs.
Help! Should I setup the DNS server so I can manage locally? I do not want to have to pay my ISP additional fees for DNS nor domain name management / transfers? What am I doing wrong, it can't be this hard?
Thanks,
Jas

I have a domain name from a registrar (not from the same ISP) which is registered using their DNS with an MX record, A records, etc (they do not offer PTR records)
Sure. The registrar has no control over the IP address(es) you get from your ISP. They can't handle reverse DNS for you.
When I nslookup my ip address, it non-authoriatively tells me the alias assigned by my ISP (and not my registrar)
That's correct - the IP address you're using is 'owned' by your ISP. Therefore any reverse lookup will ultimately query your ISP's servers and return whatever name your ISP has defined.
Should I setup the DNS server so I can manage locally?
Generally you don't manage the reverse DNS unless you have your own IP addresses. The easiest solution by far would be to ask you ISP to change the reverse DNS entries for your IP address(es).
Failing that, they can SWIP your IP addresses to you DNS server - this makes your DNS server authoritative for those IPs (in the same way you can be authoritative for your domain), but that's more work, and many ISPs refrain from doing that.
I do not want to have to pay my ISP additional fees for DNS nor domain name management / transfers?
Are they charging you for this? Then change ISPs. I'm not aware of any ISP that charges for setting up reverse DNS for clients.

How to batch change domain name in links

Have several hundred PDF files with links to external files. Links were inserted into Word version prior to PDF'ing. Need a utility or batch tool to update the domain name in the links. For example:
Current link: http://abcserver
Must be changed to this: http://zyxserver
Alternate solution might be to batch update the links in the Word files, then batch process new PDF files. (Need advice on how to do batch update of Word files.)
Greatly appreciate prompt help and suggestions.

Business Catalyst Help | Learn how to change the domain name

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/using/change-site-domain1.html

A Muse site seems to be automatically hosted on a web basic site. So when you want to give your site the proper domain name, (which is already purchased and added to the BC servers), and have it hosted on your web + plan (or another premium web plan with mail), where is the option for that? As far as I can see, this option is not offered. Do you upgrade it from your premium plan? And if so, how?

How to set same domain name for Azure Storage and Hosted Service

I have a web application running on azure and using azure storage with blob. My application allows to edit html files that are in the azure storage to save with another name and publish them later. I am using javascript to edit the html content that
I display in an Iframe but as the domain of my web application and the html that I try to edit are not the same, I got and this error "Unsafe JavaScript
attempt to access frame with URL "URL1" from frame with URL "URL2". Domains, protocols and ports must match".
I have been doing some research about it and the only way to make it work is to have the web application and the html that I want to access using javascript under the same domain.
So my question is: is it possible to have the same domain name in azure for the hosted service and the storage.
Like this:
hosted service: example.com
storage: example.com
By the way I already customize the domain names so they looks like this:
hosted service <mydomainname>.com
storage <blob.mydomainname>.com
Actually I have my application running in another hosting and I have no problem there since I have a folder where I am storing the files that I am editing so they are in the same domain as the application. I have been thinking in to do the same with Azure,
at least to have a folder where I can store the html file meanwhile I am editing it but I am not sure how much space I have in the hosted service to store temporary files.
let me know if you have a good tip or idea about how to solve this issue.

Hi Rodrigo,
Though both Azure Blob and Azure applications support custom domain, one domain could have only one DNS record (in this case is CNAME record) at one time. For Steve's case, he has 3 domains, blog.smarx.com, files.blog.smarx.com and cdn.blog.smarx.com.
> I would like to find a way to storage my html page that I need to edit under the same domain.
For this case, a workaround will be adding a http handler in your Azure application to serve file requests. That means we do not use the actual blob url to access blob content but send the request to a http handler then the http handler gets the content
from blob storage and returns it.
Please check
Accessing blobs in private container without Shared Access Secret key for a code sample.
Thanks.

How to configure internet domain name for P6 website using weblogic

After installing and configuring weblogic for P6 you get the following address https://servername:7002/console/login/LoginForm.jsp to access P6 website. Anyone know how to configure a purchase domain such as www.mydomain.com have it redirect to https://servername:7002/console/login/LoginForm.jsp Is this configured in weblogic server? If not, what is needed to redirect the purchased domain?

HI
You could have that domain resolving to/by some DNS servers and set up a load balancer / proxy to redirect every incoming request to that domain / site to your weblogic console.
however , what is it you are trying to do? It is very unsual of redirecting/ using Domain names to redirect to wls consoles.
could you explain your use case in detail please

How to properly setup an authentication using remote_login_passwordfile

I'm running Oracle9i for study purposes in a winXP OS
I set the value of the parameter remote_login_passwordfile to EXCLUSIVE
I tried connecting using the following credentials and it was, unexpectedly, successful:
connect scott/tiger as sysdba
how do I properly setup the authentication?
thanks

You need to look into two things
1.connecting directly from the server
2.Connecting from the remote
1.If you are connecting local with the server and if the SQLNET.ora has an entry like SQLNET_AUTHENTICATION_SERVICEs=(NTS) the your OS autntication will take precedence
But when you connect from the client machine
REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORD file takeover and you cannot log without a password that was gebnerated during the creation of password file.
If you strictly want passwordfiel authentcation set the SQLNET_AUTHENTICATION_SERVICE=NONE in the sqlnet.ora

How to change the Domain name of portal

Hi All,
We've developed an application using the WDA(Web Dynpro for ABAP) on BI 7.0 and in this we are displaying the BI reports as well. This whole appliaction works fine when we run this on the BI portal 7.0. But when we run it from the Enterprise Portal 6.0
the reports don't show up and it goes in the never ending loop. After research we found that this is happening because the
Domain names of the BI portal and the Enterprise Portal are not the same. And as per one of the SAP note the prerequisite for the WDA application to run on the EP portal is to have the same domain name on both the portals.
Now we are planning to change the domain name on the BI portal.
Does anyone let me know how and where we need to go and change this Domain name ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Alok Varma

Hi,
first step is to configure your DNS server. There has to be a name resolution for portal.domain.tld to your portal server's IP address.
Right now I don't have access to Visual Administrator, so I cannot check if there is any domain specific configation to be done on the server side.
As for the SSO between your Portal and WDA: you'll have to recreate the portal server certificates and import it into the ABAP system.
The Logon Ticket MYSAPSSO2 has to be issued to the new domain by the portal! If not, your browser won't sent this cookie to the BI system and no SSO data will be transmitted to the BI system.

How to properly setup LB probe for ADFS 3.0 servers

We are facing a problem during ADFS 3.0 (Windows Server 2012 R2), because we do not find a suitable URL for hardware Load Balancer probe to test ADFS nodes.
When tried with IE browser, the URL
https://sts.adfs1.ad/adfs/ls/IdpInitiatedSignon.aspx properly results in ADFS login page but, when tried the same URL with HW LB probe, the probe gets no answer from ADFS server at all.
We compared incoming traffic with network monitor in that ADFS server node (https temporary changed to http to see the traffic), a somewhat similar HTTP GET query did exist:

Any idea of how to build a probe rule with IP address?

How do you get domain names working?.

I've only attempted this once and never got it right either.
I want to be able to use my domain name to connect to my webserver on my linux box, I know BIND can be used for that.. but I have no idea what to do here.
I would need to setup name servers right?. Erm..

Who is providing your domain hosting?
I use fasthosts for mine, and they allow you use their nameservers for domain resolution. All I needed to do was to find the IP address for my connection, and enter it into the control panel as the IP of my webserver.
This would be the easiest way to do it, as it saves you having to configure and manage your own nameservers.

How to properly setup Home Sharing with iPhone and iPad

Hi, In our home we have both an iPhone and an iPad, but with different user ID's for iTunes etc.
I just now seen that there is the Home Sharing feature, but looking up info on it I'm a bit scared that people are saying if you log in to another device with the same ID you get locked out of the original.
How could I properly setup Home Sharing on both devices, while being 100% positive that I keep my original device ID's in place?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information about home sharing.

How to enter the domain name in MS Exchange account

When I want to connect my macbook with the companies e-mail what is on an MS Exchange Server I am missing the filed for entering the domain name. This is available in IOS 6 on ipad and iphone but where it is on the OS X?
..by the way: how do I enter an backslash?
Thanks

Hi,
You should not need the domain if you use the recent Exchange server 2007 or 2010.
However if those are not confugured properl and you do need to put it in you should try:
domain\username
( \ is next -left- to the Enter key on your MBP :-)
You may have to use [email protected]
This all is not great though.
Also worth mentioning that you will not be able to connect to Exchange 2003.
Let m kenow if you have more questions.

What are the requirements or what is the proccess to transfer exisitng domain names to business catalyst?
Your input is much appreciated.

Business Catalyst does not have a domain hosting capabilities, so you can not transfer domains to BC.
If you would like to point a domain to BC though you either point the A-record or NS records to your BC site:

How to change (NT)Domain Name after installed ERP?

Hello,
We are planning to change (NT) Domain Name on environment of already installed ERP/BW(WAS 6.40)/SRM/SolMan(NW 7.0).
We know SAP recommend that customer should be Re-install or System-copy SAP-System if the Domain name is changed after installed systems.
However, we do not have enough time and budget for doing that.
Questions:
1). If the (NT) Domain name will be changed, we only need to change the
OS users of service for SAP-System?
(I think that it is needed to change only OS-users of SAP-service. Is there other setting for that?)
2). The method of only changing users of SAP-service is not supported in this case?
(The customer will be not taken the SAP-Official support after doing that?)

Dear
Changing domain name is not supported by SAP if done in a productive environment (after systems have gone live).
You will probably not get support by SAP after you change the domain name once system is live.
There are a bunch of changes you will need to perform as well.
The domain name is probably existing in the RFC's and you cannot change all of those through SM59.
You will need to update those entries at Oracle level.
SAP parameters containing domain name
Java environment where domain name is contained
