How to set charset in CFDocument

I have problem with special character when outputting it to
PDF using CFDocument. Special character in PDF Document turn into
strange character.
I placed <cfprocessingDirective pageEncoding="utf-8">
at top of the page where cfdocument exist already, but I still get
weird character? This problem only happen at cf running on linux
machine.
What else should I do to fix this problem?
Thank you.

that's greek? or is it supposed to be the same german(?) as
the first one?
i know cfdocument is unicode compliant. so i guess the fault
is w/your code or
the fonts,e tc. on your server. for example:
this shows what happens when you don't have the requested
fonts on the server &
there is no suitable fallback:

this pdf was generated on our dev server that had the
required font (the content
is a bit different but you should get the idea from the
chinese, etc. texts):

How to set window title using cfdocument format="FlashPaper" ?

Does anyone know how to set the the browser window title when using:
<cfdocument format="FlashPaper">
#docContent#
</cfdocument>
The variable docContent is a fully formed html document, complete with <head> and <title> elements, yet <cfdocument> doesn't pick up the title I've specified. I'm wondering if anyone has done this before???
Thanks!

Yes, I tried that, but <cfdocument> replaces any content that I add. I cannot view the source for the page, but at least according to FireBug, when I view the page contents, I get:
<html>
<head>
<title>print.cfm - print.cfm (application/x-shockwave-flash Object)</title>
</head>

Can set charset in jdbc url string?

can set charset in jdbc url string
like mysql
?

China,
As far as I know, you cannot set the charset in the JDBC URL string. However, there are ways to set it. Although I have no experience with setting the charset, I believe the "Oracle JDBC User's Guide and Reference" contains this information. The guide is available from:
http://tahiti.oracle.com
Allow me to give you some advice. Each DBMS does things differently. Oracle's JDBC driver does not work exactly the same way as the JDBC driver for "mySQL". You need to learn how Oracle's JDBC driver does things. In my opinion, the "Oracle JDBC User's Guide nad Reference" is very good for learning how to use Oracle's JDBC driver.
Good Luck,
Avi.

Looks like you are right that it does not work for WebLogic 10.3.5 (as the documentation shows: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13711/thin_client.htm#i1053779)

How to set NLS character set for report 9i servlet output?

Hi,
I am running a Reports 9i report. My problem is that the output HTML file is UTF8 encoded while ALL my 9iASR2 registry setting are set to EEISO8859P2. When I issued the http://<host:port>/reports/rwservlet/showenv?server=servername command it returned that the NLS setting is UTF8.
Can somebody please help me, how to set this environment variable for the report servlet to EE..P1? Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Tamas Szecsy

Dmitry,
recently I got this from Oracle support. :-(. Currently when I set the Windows 2000 local and default local to Hungarian and the charset to EE..P2 then I get Central-European encoded charset. I think you will have to experience around to get correct result (if it is possible at all).
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This is bug Number 2472932 NLS:RWSERVLET SETS INVALID CHARSET AT THE HTTP HEADER
marked as fixed in 9.0.2.2 . unfortunately this bug is not published so I will not be able to sent you the bug as a whole but here is problem description in bug:
iAS9.0.2.0.1 (Reports9.0.2.0.1) on Solaris2.8
Running rdf with rwservlet sends the invalid charset at the http header.
Say ias is up with LANG=C, http header for the rwservlet
is always sent as "iso-8859-1" regardless of rwserver's NLS_CHARACTERSET.
This is the TCP/IP packet for the GET /reports/rwservlet?report=xxx&....
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2002 01:15:37 GMT Cache-Cont
rol: private Content-Language: en Server: Oracle9iAS/9.0.2 Ora
cle HTTP Server Oracle9iAS-Web-Cache/9.0.2.0.0 (N) Content-Leng
th: 6908 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Set-Cooki
In this example, to produce a html with other charset than
iso-8859-1,usually the outputted html has the charset information at
meta tag by setting "Before Report Value" property in rdf.
However charset in meta tag is less priority than http header, browser
such as IE6 or Netscape7 firstly displays the page in iso-8859-1.
Hence the characters other than iso8859p1 gets garbage.
To workaround it with IE6/NS7, set proper encoding manually.
('View'-'Encoding' for IE 'View'-'Character coding' for NS7 )
However, NS4.7 does not have workaround for it.
Besides, starting opmn in LANG=ja, the rwservlet's http header becomes
Shift_JIS!!. Thus rwserver seems to set the http header based on the
LANG on Solaris.
To fix these issues,
- The http header for rwservlet shold be based on the nls_characterset
for the rwserver.
This is no problem for reprots jsp run.

I download itext for convert jsp to PDF. How to set content type for PDF.

I download itext for convert jsp to PDF. How to set content type for PDF. I try
<%@ page contentType = "application/pdf;charset=TIS-620" %>
, but the page does not PDF.
Thank.

PDF files are usually binary files, JSPs are not well-suited for binary content.
(If you download the result of your JSP you'll see that it is not a valid PDF file; it will have probably a lot of whitespace and linefeeds, that will choke your PDF reader.). The first few characters must be
"%PDF-" without whitespace.
You can try using PDF files encoded as text - check if you can use text-encoded PDFs in iText.
Try using a Servlet instead.

How to set up a master/detail Spry select

Hello, I was trying to build a master/detail select using Spry following the example in the samples folder, but I didn't succed. I think I'm pretty close. I'm using two datasets from two diffrent xml files. The problem is that I don't know how to set a filter probably. Thanks so much.
This is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Rubro:
<span spry:region="dsRubro" id="rubroSelector">
<select spry:repeatchildren="dsRubro" name="rubroSelect" onchange="document.forms[0].categoriaSelect.disabled = true; dsRubro.setCurrentRowNumber(this.selectedIndex);">
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaRubro}" selected="selected">{descripcion}</option>
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} != {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaRubro}">{descripcion}</option>
</select>
</span>
Categoria:
<span spry:region="dsCategoria" id="categoriaSelector">
<select spry:repeatchildren="dsCategoria" id="categoriaSelect" name="categoriaSelect">
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaCategoria}" selected="selected">{descripcion}</option>
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} != {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaCategoria}">{descripcion}</option>
</select>
</span>

Use XPath to filter the data in the second dataset as follows
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns:spry="http://ns.adobe.com/spry">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script>
var dsRubro = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("rubro_xml.php", "root/row");
dsRubro.setColumnType("idConsultaRubro", "number");
var dsCategoria = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("categoria_xml.php[idConsultaRubro=-1]", "root/row");
dsCategoria.setColumnType("idConsultaRubro", "number");
dsCategoria.setColumnType("idConsultaCategoria", "number");
dsCategoria.setColumnType("orden", "number");
function newXPath(cat){
dsCategoria.setXPath('root/row[idConsultaRubro='+cat+']');
dsCategoria.loadData();
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Rubro:
<span spry:region="dsRubro" id="rubroSelector">
<select spry:repeatchildren="dsRubro" name="rubroSelect" onchange="newXPath(this.value)">
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaRubro}" selected="selected">{descripcion}</option>
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} != {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaRubro}">{descripcion}</option>

</span>
Categoria:
<span spry:region="dsCategoria" id="categoriaSelector">
<select spry:repeatchildren="dsCategoria" id="categoriaSelect" name="categoriaSelect">
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{idConsultaCategoria}" selected="selected">{descripcion}</option>

How to set Weblogic 5.1 server to display UTF8 characters

Hi all,
Does anybody know how to set up Weblogic 5.1 server in order to display UTF8
characters such as Japanese characters?
I am able to display utf8 in Tomcat but not in Weblogic. All I did for
Tomcat is to change the content type of the servlets.
Thank you for your help.

DO you have servlets which print utf-8 data to the client?
If yes then you can just call response.setContentType("text/html;
charset=UTF-8");
and the response will look as expected.
for jsps :
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %> should do the trick.

you can create method on Application Module and to Client listener
like
    public Object[] getData(Number n,Date d)
Object val[]= new Object[2];
String sp = "{? = call get_data(?,?,?)}";
            Connection conn = null;
            CallableStatement proc = null;
            try {
             //   conn = isConnSupplied ? userConn : ResourceManager.getConnection();
                proc = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(sp,0);
            proc.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.Number);
            proc.setObject(2,12);
           proc.setObject(3,dateobj);
          proc.registerOutParameter(2, OracleTypes.VARCHAR);
            proc.executeQuery();
             int amttext= proc.getInt(1); //for return value
String msg=proc.getString(2);//for out param
val[0]=amttext;
val[1]=msg;
            catch(Exception e)
                System.out.println(e);
return val;
}and access this method from backing bean using following code-
            BindingContext bindingctx=BindingContext.getCurrent();
               BindingContainer binding=bindingctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
            OperationBinding operationBinding1 = binding.getOperationBinding("getData");
            operationBinding1.getParamsMap().put("n",anyno);
            operationBinding1.getParamsMap().put("d",dateobj);
            operationBinding1.execute();

Hello,
If you are using the "Paper Layout", check the Reports's "Before Report Value" property:
Before Report Value :
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=&Encoding">
If you are using the "Web Layout", take a look to the document :

How we set up multiple websites on OSX Server

BACKGROUND
After fiddling and futzing around for weeks (actually since last year) I've finally figured out how to set up multiple websites (virtual sites) using one port and one IP address. While there seems to be lots of discussion on this topic, it seems that the basic assumption is that one knows everything about websites, DNS and all that stuff, which I do not.
When our network was originally established the engineer set up a wiki and also configured webmail, so we had two sites, one secured for mail and the other open for Calendar and the wiki. We were not hosting any websites locally because our school website is hosted by a company in New England.
This year I wanted to set up websites for teachers and students. As great as the wiki is, there are some things it just can't do as well as a website. So I figured if I set up the sites teachers could link back and forth from one to the other. In addition kids could now start to use a real website instead of the cobbled together file mess I had when we ran a Windows network. Also iWeb is a much more accessible tool than FrontPage.
SERVER SIDE:
Snow Leopard Server - 10.6.4
There are two - actually three pieces if you want your iWeb clients to connect to the server: Server Side Web Services, DNS and, in my case, FTP.
================================================ SERVER SIDE - WEB SERVICES
If you haven't turned on Web services, you'll need to open Server Admin and do that. If you don't know how to set up web services - just reply and I'll step you through that as well.
Once web services are set up and turned on, you'll see it listed under your server’s name in the Server Admin sidebar. Click on "Web" and then click on the "Sites" tab at the top of page. This is where you list all your sites.
Click the plus button and enter the fully qualified name of your site, for example: "students.myschool.org". Don't use the defaults here (no name) - that's what got me in trouble before. BE SPECIFIC!
You'll be looking at the "General" tab (the other tabs, "Options", "Realms", etc. we'll deal with in a second).
On the "General Tab", the default IP address ("any") and port (80) is just fine. We'll run everything over port 80. (Apache figures all the virtual site stuff out - you don't need your rocket science degree for that.)
"Web Folder:" is important because this is how you'll "segment" your websites. While I would NEVER do this again, we have a solid state hard drive for the OS and a RAID array for our data files. IF you have that, make sure you do NOT use the default "Web Folder" because it will store all your files on your solid state drive. There may not be enough room, over time, on that drive. I've not experienced it yet, but it's my understanding that if the drive fills up, the server shuts down.
I store my web sites on a folder on the RAID array.
Everything else on that tab can be left as the default. (Just make sure that you have an "index.html" or "index.php" file in your web folder root, but iWeb will take care of that for you.)
I would put in your email address in the "Administrator Email:" field.
Under "Options" you really don't have to put anything. I've tested making websites with iWeb and it doesn't appear that anything needs to be checked.
Nothing needs to be entered in "Realms" as well from what I see working w/ iWeb.
The defaults in "Logging" are fine.
You can leave "Security" alone, but we do have a (self-issued) certificate listed for our webmail site.
"Aliases" is important. Under "Web Server Aliases" you enter how you want the site to respond to when users type in a URL in their web browsers.
When our web server was initially set up the engineer set up "wiki.myschool.org" on port 80 and "mail.myschool.org" on port 443. In the aliases section was nothing but a "*" (the wildcard character). That means, from what I can figure out, that the webserver will respond to these sites regardless of what is typed in the URL. (Well, something like that - point is, if you create OTHER websites, you'll NEVER get to them because the wildcard character in the "Aliases" section, in effect, grabs those web requests and redirects them to the sites that are already there.
In my case I deleted both of those wild card characters. For my "wiki.myschool.org" site, I entered "mail.myschool.org". That means if you type EITHER "wiki." or "mail.", go to the site that’s stored in the “Web Folder” we set up when those sites were created.
For "mail.myschool.org" I just DELETED the wildcard character. I wanted that site (since it was secured) only to respond to "mail." - nothing else. (You're not going to that secured site for any other reason than to get your mail.)
"Proxy" can be left blank. Have no idea what that does. As time permits I'll do some research and figure out what it's used for.
"Web Services" is if you want to provide any MORE services to this particular site. Most likely you'll want to uncheck all the boxes. For our "wiki." site, we have checked "Wikis", "Blogs", and "Calendar". For our "mail." site we have those checked PLUS "Mail".
I would create a separate "Web Folder" for each of your sites. I don't know if that's a requirement but for housekeeping purposes, I would keep the sites separated. And I SUSPECT that it's "best practice" to separate your wiki from your other websites.
SERVER SIDE - DNS
OK...now you have to make your site reachable and the only way to do that is to set up DNS so that folks don't need to type in the IP address of your web server. You need to set up DNS inside your network and, if you want folks in the outside world to reach your website, you'll need to set up an external DNS as well. I'm going to cover INTERNAL DNS - if you don't know how to set up EXTERNAL DNS - reply or email me and I'll post those instructions.
Most likely you have already created Zones for you network...all you really need to do is create "Aliases" so that when you type "students.myschool.org" your web browser will know that site resides on IP address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX.
If you've set up Zones then you already have a "Machine" setting that translates your server’s name to an IP address and vice versa.
All you need to do is create an "Alias" (CNAME) record for, in this case, "students". You’ll see the choices for types of records when you click the "Add Record" button.
There are only two fields to configure for a record: "Alias Name" - in this case "students" and "Destination" - in this case "servername.myschool.org". (You've already entered a machine record that says "servername" = 192.168.1.x.)
That's it for Internal DNS.
SERVER SIDE - FTP
Now you have to get iWeb to communicate with the webserver.
There are only three ways iWeb will communicate with webservers: MobileMe, Local Folder and FTP Server.
Local Folder is really only practical if you want to host a website on a laptop (I was blown away initially when I found out that all Macs had a built-in web server - how neat is that?). I think there are some very cool things teachers could do with configuration, and, of course, you wouldn't need to set up any web services on the web server, but that's for another discussion. You need to set up FTP services on the web server.
Turn on and enable FTP on your webserver.
You can leave the defaults for "General", "Messages" and "Logging". "Advanced" is the only thing you want to set. I set "Authenticated Users See:" to "Home Folder Only". I set the "FTP Root" to the same root folder in which I plan to store my web sites (/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents). This setting sets that folder only to be accessible via FTP.
I would suggest returning to your DNS settings and adding one more "Alias". Set "ftp." to point to your webserver. Why? So folks can edit their sites from home (see below).
CAVEAT: If you are running FTP on other servers, make sure that the settings here do not conflict with the settings on the other servers. For example, I'm running FTP on my file server so that my scanners can communicate with it. However, I configure my FTP settings by machine name and NOT "ftp.myschool.org".
================================================
CLIENT SIDE - CONFIGURING iWEB
Now you have to configure iWeb so that it will communicate with your server.
Click on the "Site" icon so that "Site Publishing Settings" appears.
Publishing:
"Publish to:" = "FTP Server"
You can set the "Site name:" and "Contact email:" to whatever you want. But see below!
FTP Server Settings:
"Server address"=ftp.myschool.org (you could also enter in servername.myschool.org or the IP address. However, if you want folks to be able to work on the site from home, you will need to configure external DNS for that. If you use the IP address, you're out of luck for remote access to the site. (You can do it but it's beyond the scope of this discussion.)
"Username" & "Password" should be your user's network login credentials.
"Directory/Path" - this is important. Remember, you set your "FTP Root" to be "/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents". If you leave this field blank then the website will be dumped into this folder. If you are only setting up one site, that may be OK. However I wanted to set up a "students" site folder, a "faculty" site folder and a separate site for our literary magazine.
THEREFORE: I have, in my ..../Documents folder (on the server), a "students" folder, a "faculty" folder, and a "litmag" folder.
SO...in my "Directory/Path:" field, I have "/faculty". That means the full path to this website is "ftp root/faculty" or "/VOLUMES/RAID Array/WebServer/Documents/faculty" (You don't need a trailing "/" character. iWeb will automatically append the folder for you user depending on what you entered in "Site Name:" in the "Publishing" area.
Website URL:
This is the root website depending on whether it is "students" or "faculty". Since iWeb will append the site name to this root website, I accomplished what I hoped to accomplish in this post (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12288561#12288561).
Faculty sites will be @ http://faculty.myschool.org/username. Students @ http://students.myschool.org/username. PERFECT!
iWeb is such a GREAT tool - NOW the kids can start using it!
I want to reiterate that this works for our school but it should work for you as well. There may be better ways to do this but it works for us.
Hope this has been helpful and you won't have to spend weeks trying to figure this all out by yourself!

OK...here's how we did it.
To get access to the website you created from outside your network there are a couple of steps.
First, you have to have a STATIC IP address from your ISP. If you have a T1 circuit, no problem...you usually get a couple of static IPs you can use. However, if you have a cable modem circuit, most likely you have a dynamic IP address which changes when you connect to the internet. Usually a static IP will cost a bit more because the ISP has to go through a couple of steps to set it up for you. But once you have the address, you now have a way for folks outside your network to connect with you.
(I’m also assuming that you use a router of some sort through which traffic flows out to the internet and that you aren’t using connection sharing or something like that.)
The next thing you need to do is have your new static IP address associated with the server on which you are hosting your website. You've probably already done that if your website works inside your network. However, you've associated a private ip (192.168.x.x, etc.) to your web server. That doesn't mean anything to folks on the outside because private IP addresses are just that - private - folks can't access them. (I won't get into VPN because that's a whole other topic.)
The way you associate your new static IP address to your web server is through some sort of dns application from your ISP. For example, we use TierraNet to manage our external DNS information. They have a web interface control panel that is very similar to the DNS interface for XServer. You can create CNAME records (aliases - other ways that folks can access your servers).
Basically you create an "A" (CNAME) record with a fully qualified domain name (e.g. webserver.myschool.org) and point it to your public IP address (XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX) which you just got from your ISP. It's going to take a while (24-48 hours) for this change to take effect. BTW, you can create as many “A” records as you want. For example mail.myschool.com and wiki.myschool.com could point to the same place.
You want to make sure that the fully qualified domain name you enter in the external dns utility matches the name you used when you created your internal dns records on your XServer.
OK...so now folks can get to your domain - but, remember, you have a private network IP scheme between them and you. You now have to tell your router that when web traffic arrives, allow it inside the network and direct it to your web server.
Let's say your public IP address is 205.100.112.50 and your web server is 192.168.0.5.
You have to create, in your router’s "Security Zone" (router companies call them different things) a couple of rules. Usually the first rule is: "Let everything inside the network get out to the web." You've probably already done that if folks inside the network can reach the internet.
You then have to tell the router to allow web traffic (port 80) into your network AND redirect that traffic to 192.168.0.5.
We use AdTran routers and they have a web interface which allows you to write "rules" affecting public and private traffic. Public is folks outside the network, private is folks inside.
AdTran calls them "Security Zones" and you modify those zones with policies.
So my "Policy" would say, in the above example, redirect traffic from my public IP (205.100.112.50) -> to my web server -> (192.168.0.5).
THEN you have to modify this policy with what AdTran calls "Traffic Selectors". You've said, OK, you can get in, but WHAT can get in?
The "Traffic Selector" is written to say: "Permit" "TCP" traffic from 205.100.112.50 only through Port 80. (That's the port that web traffic goes over. If you wanted a secure website, you'd add another traffic selector that opens port 443, for example.)
I'll tell you I'm no genius when it comes to this. I called AdTran and had them configure my router for me. I told them what I wanted done, they remoted into the router and configured it. But then I could go to the web interface and see what they did and then added rules later on when I wanted, for example, to get access to the network via Apple Remote Desktop or VPN into the network on my iPad.
I'd bet that your router has a maintenance agreement that includes this service and if it doesn't it should have.
I did find that I still had issues when I tried to set this up originally and it had to do with the ORDER of the policies. I can’t remember exactly what the issue was, but, effectively one of the policies highjacked traffic before the policy that I wanted got triggered. Simply moving them around in the list fixed that issue. So if you have this set up but still can’t access the site, check the order of your rules.
I don’t know if that helps or not, but I try to think about this stuff conceptually and then get someone to help me with the details. I work with this stuff so infrequently that I forgot how I did something 6 months or a year ago. I’m in the process of creating a wiki for the school which documents all this stuff, but that’s a major undertaking.
Cheers,
John

How to set Compatibility Mode for a single site in ie10

This question was originally posted on the Answers forum -
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/how-to-set-compatibility-mode-for-a-single-site-in/187152e3-142a-4d96-8d1b-af82ef571eec
I am having problem with getting ie10 to set ie9 compatibility for a single site (sharepoint.contoso.com).
When I add this website in Compatibility View Settings (Alt > Tools > Compatibility View Settings > 'Add this Website') it adds the domain 'contoso.com' and not the individual website (sharepoint.contoso.com).
This cause other sites (www.contoso.com) to be configured to use compatibility mode. Because this is a separate site (different web server) to the site sharepoint.contoso.com (sharepoint 2010 server) we need different compatibility settings.
Using a different example to explain the issue -
Microsoft has three websites that are different websites created by different developers written in different programming languages and they only work with certain browsers.
microsoft.com (Website1 created by Developer1) - compatible with ie8/ie9/ie10
msdn.microsoft.com (Website2 created by Developer2) - compatible with ie8/ie9
technet.microsoft.com (Website3 website created by Developer3) - compatible only with ie10
The only thing the three website share is the URL contains 'microsoft.com'.
Marking 'msdn.microsoft.com' to run in compatibility mode affects the other 2 websites - mainly technet.microsoft.com which will not work now since it only runs in pure ie10 mode.
Should you be able to add an individual site to the compatibility list instead of all sites that have .microsoft.com in the URL? Am I missing a simple setting in the ie10?
As a workaround I am using the F12 Developer Tools to set the Browser Mode which temporary sets the compatibility mode. However this is not a nice solution to the end users at our organisation.

problem is not solved for non corporate environments...
You could start your own thread. Then if you got that answer and it was marked Answered you would have the ability to unmark it. The OP of this one seems satisfied. Also note that this is TechNet. Consumers can get help on Answers
forums.

Oh! I wrote it wrong: I should have said: This is not solved for NON-AD environments. No demands what so ever to use Window 7/8 professional in a small corporation or on a big corporation with Island of smaller departments for example offshore.
The problem is that the thread is not "Answered" by the OP, its is marked answered by a moderator (and same moderator that did the answer) so no way of telling if the OP is satisfied.
But you are right in the fact that I am almost kidnapping the thread. But a complete answer would benefit all in this case I would presume.

Once and for all: How to set up and use SSH

Yes, I know ssh has been discussed on and off, but never in its entirety; and yes, there are step by step instructions on the www, but at one point or another they skip a crucial instruction that would be necessary for unix-dummies (e.g. how to save and close the nano-editor in Terminal). So, please pardon my question:
There are several points I'd like to ask for ssh-connecting two macs on a local network:
1) In terminal-file-"connect to server" you can ask for an ssh connection to be set up. For this to work, do I need to create private and public keys first? If so, how? Please point me to a reliable and step-by-step instruction site.
There are some free ssh-utilities out there, but their documentation is just not helpful enough for a UNIX-dummy.
2) Apparently I managed to connect via ssh once (from the terminal, see point 1) to a local server (allowing remote connection set to ON at the server). But then, when I connected to that server from the client's finder and tried to get into my user account on that server it told me that no secure connection could be established. What's wrong here? Do I have to continue working from within the terminal to use this connection? That would be difficult for an average MacUser.
3) What is the security advantage of an SSH connection on a local wireless network (Airport Base Station) over WPA2, if at all?
4) And how to set up an ssh-connection over the internet cloud to safely build a remote control/desktop sharing connection, e.g., a friend's Mac when she has a problem?
Thanks for your consideration.

First I'm not sure what your goals are.
1) In terminal-file-"connect to server" you can ask for an ssh connection to be set up. For this to work, do I need to create private and public keys first?
If you have ssh keys, you can do this without passwords. If you have not exchanged keys with the remote system, you will be asked for the password of the user you are attempting to login as.
If so, how? Please point me to a reliable and step-by-step instruction site. There are some free ssh-utilities out there, but their documentation is just not helpful enough for a UNIX-dummy.
Log into the remote system. This could be via ssh.
On the remote system, run the following command to generate an ssh key for that remote system:
ssh-keygen -t rsa
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa): <<take default>>
Created directory '/Users/username/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): <<enter nothing>>
Enter same passphrase again: <<enter nothing again>>
Your identification has been saved in /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff:gg:hh:ii:jj:kk:ll:mm:nn:oo:pp [email protected]
This will generate an ssh key for the remote system. This could be any system that support ssh, such as a Unix system, or another Mac.
Copy the id_rsa.pub file from the remote system to your Mac. When I say "your Mac" I mean the one that you want to make the ssh connection from. The id_rsa.pub is found in the remote system's ~username/.ssh/ directory.
Append the copied id_rsa.pub to your Mac's ~himbear/.ssh/authorized_keys2 file
cat id_rsa.pub >>~himbear/.ssh/authorized_keys2
Now when you ssh to that specific remote system, it will NOT ask for a password. The first time you ssh to any system, ssh will ask if the system is really the system you thing it is. But once you say "yes", it will not ask that question again.
Repeat for every remote system you wish to log into using an ssh key.
2) Apparently I managed to connect via ssh once (from the terminal, see point 1) to a local server (allowing remote connection set to ON at the server). But then, when I connected to that server from the client's finder and tried to get into my user account on that server it told me that no secure connection could be established. What's wrong here? Do I have to continue working from within the terminal to use this connection? That would be difficult for an average MacUser.
MacUser. A flash from the past, as in the MacUser magazine.
ssh is not used by default when you make connections. If you want an ssh connection, you have to establish it intentionally.
ssh can be used to pre-establish a tunnel (or tunnels) that other services can use. Once an ssh tunnel is establish, connections to local host's tunnel port will be connected to the specified remote port. For example:
ssh -L 5901:localhost:5900 [email protected]
will establish a tunnel that VNC can use. The VNC client would connect to localhost display 1 or port 5901.
ssh allows multiple -L tunnels to be specified on the ssh command line.
3) What is the security advantage of an SSH connection on a local wireless network (Airport Base Station) over WPA2, if at all?
Inside you home. Not much. Unless of course you do not trust the other members of your family. That is to say, others having your WPA2 password, and are thus on the inside, and can sniff you packets.
4) And how to set up an ssh-connection over the internet cloud to safely build a remote control/desktop sharing connection, e.g., a friend's Mac when she has a problem?
If you are using the Mac OS X Leopard built-in *Screen Sharing* and you are connecting to another Mac's built-in Leopard System Preferences -> Sharing -> Remote Management (Tiger's Apple Remote Desktop), then in the *Screen Sharing* preferences, is an "Encrypt all network data" option.
If you wish to set this option in advance, you can launch *Screen Sharing* by double clicking on System -> Library -> CoreServices -> Screen Sharing.app
You can *Screen Sharing* connections over the net using iChat. This is one of the easiest ways to take control of their system. Of course they need to cooperate. I use a Free AOL Instant Messager (AIM) account for my iChat connections. And as a side benefit you can text, audio chat and/or video chat with the person at the other end.
If you are NOT using the build-in Mac OS X *Screen Sharing* and/or you are NOT using the build-in remote Mac OS X remote management server, then this is a situation where an ssh tunnel would be a very good idea.
However, setting up an ssh tunnel between 2 systems across the internet gets complex.
In this case you might want to consider using something like LogMeIn.com which will deal with all those nasty home routers without needing to to do nasty router configurations, and it will be a secure connection. LogMeIn.com will not be as fast as a *Screen Sharing* connection or a VNC connection, but it will be secure and easy to establish. Again, this is only if you can not to Mac to Mac *Screen Sharing* using built-in Mac OS X remote desktop.
Now if you want to roll your own ssh tunnels for VNC, then I'm just going to outline the things you need to do.
If the remote system is behind a home router, you need to configure that remote home router to "Port Forward" port 22 on the Internet side to port 22 on the target Mac. Bonus points if the internet side using a high number port to discourge net bots from knocking on your door. Use the ssh -p 12345 option to connect to the high numbered port that is forwarded to port 22 of the destination Mac.
On the remote Mac you need to run a VNC server. If this is a Mac, then Leopard System Preferences -> Sharing -> Remote Management (Tiger's Apple Remote Desktop). If it is not a Mac, then for Windows, TightVNC, UltraVNC, RealVNC are possible options. Linux has a built-in vncserver, or you can install x11vnc which has the advantage of displaying the desktop screen.
Once you can access the remote system, you use an ssh command like the following:
ssh -p 12345 -L 5901:localhost:5900 remote.system.address
You can get the remote system's address by having the remote system surf over to http://whatismyip.com. Then they can tell you the IP address.
If you are going to be doing this a lot, you can get a free no-ip.com or dyndns.org dynamic DNS name for the remote system, and the remote system can run a dynamic DNS client (available from no-ip.com or dyndns.org) which will keep the dynamic DNS name updated as the remote person's ISP change's their IP address.
Finally, now that you have an ssh tunnel for VNC traffic, you have your VNC client connect to
Address: localhost
Port: 5901
Depending on your VNC client you may need to specify Display 1 instead of Port 5901. Or if you do not get a Display or Port option you specify localhost:5901
