How to set Data Subsetting Parameters in MOBILE SERVER

Hello.
How can I set data subsetting parameters in Mobile Server with patch 5.0.2.10.0 NLS.
From Mobile Server "Control Center" -> "Applications" it's not appears at left screen the following field:
* Data Subsetting
* Registry
* Access
* Files
The browser appears this error message:
"http://120.0.0.1:2000/webtogo/admin/console/apppropinfo?applicationvp=%2FMyApp"
Have you any idea for this problem?
Thanks All.

Thanks Oliver,
I have to go in control center in "applications tab" then i have the list of application and i edit one of them, on the left clic Data Subsetting it's not appears.
The following it not appears:
* Data Subsetting
* Registry
* Access
* Files
The browser (internet explorer) appears (at buttom on the left browser) this error message:
"error http://127.0.0.1:2000/webtogo/admin/console/apppropinfo?applicationvp=%2FMyApp missing link".
Whereas (Oliver's solution) in Mobile Server "Control Center" -> "Users Tabs"
i have the list of users go and i edit one of them, on the left clic Data Subsetting then clic on the right pan platform and then i see but not parameter are definited.
Help me please.

  • Oracle Lite: How to create data subsetting parameters?

    how to create data subsetting parameters?
    I need these parameters for use of a restricting predicate in an item publication.
    I were looking the forum and i found topics about "how to set?" but i don't found how to create a data subsetting parameter.
    I am replacing SQL server 2000 and SQL server CE by oracle 9i and oracle lite 5.0.2.
    Thanks in advance.
    PCID

    Had problems with the parameters shown on pages webtogo in the datasubsettings section because none of them were "defined", but in sections 1.4.1.2 I found these lines:
    Template: select * from master.task where CustCity = :city
    Then click OK. This brings you back to the previous screen. The template query contains a variable (subscription parameter) named "city". Later, when you provision the application to a user, you will be prompted to enter the value for it.
    I found out how to put a parameter to restrict registries that download to the pocket pc from each user.
    Thank you very much!!!

  • Data Subsetting parameters

    Hello,
    Where does Oracle store the data subnetting parameters in the "Mobileadmin" schema? I'd like to know so I can validate the parameter for each user without having to go through each one on the Mobile Manager.
    Thank you.

    The data subsetting parameters used in each publication item are stored in c$all_pub_params.
    The values for each user are in c$all_subscription_params
    NOTE do not change directly through the database, as this would not work correctly. these tables do not have public grants by default, so if you want to examine the data programatically (we do as part of application publishing), then you will need to grant access/create synonyms if you code does not run as mobileadmin

    Convert the resultSet from the db to a Object[][], let's call it result.
    Then create a JTable (jTable1).
    On the JTable you need to define the headers, and the data itself.
    You can get the headers from ResultSetMetaData. Convert these to an array again (headers).
    Now use these methods to create a model and set the model of the JTable.
    Model model =  new DefaultTableModel(result, headers);
    jTable1.setModel(model);That's about the basics.

    how to set date and time on apple tv

    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
        1.    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        2.    Also try restarting the router.
        3.    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If this is a new Apple TV, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • How to set up a basic file sharing server for my small architectural business?

    I have no idea if I have posted in the correct area as this is my first forum post within the apple support community!
    I have been using a 21.5" imac running 10.6.8 for the past 5 years to run my small home based architectural design business. I have been using the internal hard drive & backing up the necessary data to a simple usb external hard drive. I am now looking to firstly purchase a new imac 27" retina and purchase new autocad lt 2015 for mac software. I am looking to have another imac (my old mac) running in conjunction with the new mac. I want both macs to be able to access the same data and am slightly unsure what is the best way to achieve this.....As my old mac is currently only running snow leopard and an old version of autocad for mac 2011 it wont run on any more recent OS. Essentially i believe I have 2 main options with this.... (1) I Accept that I have to purchase 2 no. autocad lt 2015 licences @ a cost of £2300. Or option (2), I only run autocad on the new mac as this will be the primary station and the old mac used for primarily for admin & accounts. I have also recently discovered that it is possible to rent autocad licences for £300p/a which may also be another option (3)!
    I previously had a problem where my hard drive failed on my mac & lost all data on the internal hard drive, luckily I had been backing up all data regularly to my external hard drive and now loss occurred! Obviously with any new system I want to ensure that my data is safe!
    I currently utilise about 250GB of data for business operations but this will obviously grow with time.
    In the future I would like to have the option of potentially being able to access the network data remotely via macbook pro whilst abroad although at this stage this really isnt my primary objective. Although I believe I could achieve this through apple remote desktop.
    I suppose I should provide some information with regard to the required speed of the system...I regularly open 50-100 photos at the same time totalling around 250-500MB. I would like the system to be able to handle this fairly easily.
    I have been trawling through forums and to be honest they are totally confusing me. I have also spent time on the phone to the apple business team and have also discussed my objectives with a member of the apple team in store.
    There have been various options advised to me and I really do not know which is the most appropriate route forward.
    1 - Using a mac mini as the file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the mac mini to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    2 - Using a time capsule as a file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the TC to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    3 - Using the new mac hard drive and linking the 2 macs via thunderbolt (old mac does not have thunderbolt and so I guess I would need another new mac?!) and then backing up the data to a time capsule.
    4 - Using a RAID based server and linking the 2 no. macs.
    Sorry to ramble but any advice really would be greatly received!

    Hi sblemings,
    Welcome to the community.
    I think with your scenario you should ask yourself, how complicated do you want the setup to be and how much time would you have to be able to resolve an issue should one occur with this setup.
    All the options that have been advised would work but they come with complexity and therefore time.
    1 - Using a mac mini as the file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the mac mini to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    2 - Using a time capsule as a file server and linking the 2 mac devices to this and backing up the TC to an external hard drive to ensure no loss of data.
    3 - Using the new mac hard drive and linking the 2 macs via thunderbolt (old mac does not have thunderbolt and so I guess I would need another new mac?!) and then backing up the data to a time capsule.
    4 - Using a RAID based server and linking the 2 no. macs.
    Sorry to ramble but any advice really would be greatly received!
    option 1
    Would be a way to achieve what you want, it would centralise your files and you would only need to backup your file server (as long as all the files you wanted backed up were on it). This could be achieved either using the client and sharing various folders or using Server which would give you more options than you would possibly need.
    option 2
    This is exactly like option 1 except that you wouldn't have to administer another mac however you may limit any future growth.
    option 3
    This option I probably wouldn't pick, you could achieve this with firewire and use a firewire to thunderbolt adapter (saves you having to buy a new iMac)
    option 4
    This option would, depending on your RAID level, give you disk redundancy but remember you would still need to back this up, as RAID is NOT a backup solution.
    I would also ask is there a pressing need to keep the old iMac in service and complicating things by having a server / NAS? Could you not just transfer all your information over to this and continue with the one backup? I would say that doing it this was would be the simplest way of achieving what you want from what I can take from your question.
    As for remotely accessing your data, if you have the right hardware the way to achieve this would be to use a VPN and connect back to your data. However a potentially easier way for you ,would be to use a service like logmein or teamviewer to connect back.
    Hope this helps, and by all means any questions please ask.

  • How to set Date in RFC call.

    Hi,
    I am trying to set date in structure when calling RFC.
    ICall = function.getImportParameterList();
    ICall.getStructure("IORDER").setValue(eDate,"EDATE");
    EDATE is date field in Structure in RFC with data type "D" and it is taking date in "dd.mm.yyyy"; formate.
    I am setting date  "dd.mm.yyyy"; in string format with eDate variable and it is throwing error.
    Can any one tell me How I can set date for "EDATE" field in proper format.
    Can I do JCO.TYPE_DATE date1 = new java.util.Date();
    And How I can convert date in acceptable format "dd.mm.yyyy"; for RFC.
    Thanks for your help
    Ashish

    Hi Sateesh,
    Thanks for your Answer.
    I used java.util.date and it works fine.
    Icall.getStructure("IOrder").setValue(new java.util.date(), "EDATE")
    I came to know that java date variabel can be passed without any extra conversion to ABAP type D variable .
    Is it OK? As I am setting  java date variable directly to ABAP type d variable in RFC.
    I have awarded you points for very helpful answer.
    Thanks.

  • How to set  Date in input field by hard coding in application

    Hi all,
    1.I have to make a date(its my choice to set the date) to appear in input field which is date type.
    2.How to compare two numbers of type decimal. for example greatest of two numbers
    urgent requirement

    Hi
    Check the http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/sql/Date.html
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/Calendar.html
    Sample Code
    Date now = new Date();
          DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance();
          String s = df.format(now);
          System.out.println("Today is " + s);
    java.sql.Date descends from java.util.Date, but uses only the year, month and day values. There are two methods to create a Date object. The first uses a Calendar object, setting the year, month and day portions to the desired values. The hour, minute, second and millisecond values must be set to zero. At that point, Calendar.getTime().getTime() is invoked to get the java.util.Date milliseconds. That value is then passed to a java.sql.Date constructor:
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
        // set Date portion to January 1, 1970
        cal.set( cal.YEAR, 1970 );
        cal.set( cal.MONTH, cal.JANUARY );
        cal.set( cal.DATE, 1 );
        cal.set( cal.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0 );
        cal.set( cal.MINUTE, 0 );
        cal.set( cal.SECOND, 0 );
        cal.set( cal.MILLISECOND, 0 );
        java.sql.Date jsqlD =
           new java.sql.Date( cal.getTime().getTime() );
    The second method is java.sql.Date's valueOf method. valueOf() accepts a String, which must be the date in JDBC time escape format - "yyyy-mm-dd". For example,
        java.sql.Date jsqlD = java.sql.Date.valueOf( "2010-01-31" );
    creates a Date object representing January 31, 2010. To use this method with a Calendar object, use:
        java.sql.Date jsqlD = java.sql.Date.valueOf(
                cal.get(cal.YEAR) + ":" +
                cal.get(cal.MONTH) + ":" +
                cal.get(cal.DATE) );
    which produces a Date object with the same value as the first example.

  • How to set store procedure parameters

    Hello,
    To summarize our problem, we are not able to set store procedure parameters using JRC and without using a Viewer.
    Inside an rpt document we use a call to a store procedure that requires some input parameters.
    We attempted to pass the required parameters to the report (please see below) but it seems that those parameters are somehow ignored.
    In fact null values are always received by the store procedure.
    For your information, if the document doesnu2019t contain a call to a store proc but SQL clause parameters instead, then that works.
    Does that mean that sp parameters have to be set in a specific way?
    Please can you advise?
    Tanks a lot,
    Joseph
    This is how we set parameter values:
    private void handleParameters(ReportClientDocument pm_document, List pm_parameters) throws Exception
         ParameterFieldController pfc = pm_document.getDataDefController().getParameterFieldController();
         pfc.setCurrentValue(reportName, parameterFieldName, parameterValue);
    Then we export in a pdf file:
    private InputStream createInputStream(ReportClientDocument pm_document, String pm_reportName) throws Exception
         return (ByteArrayInputStream)pm_document.getPrintOutputController().export(ReportExportFormat.PDF);

    First question:
    Do you set the parameters before the database logon?
    Sincerely,
    Ted Ueda

  • How to insert Data from a function on server A into a table on Server B.

    Hi,
    I have a function which is like this
    DECLARE @oldmax bigint, @newmax bigint
    SELECT @oldmax = max(exportTimestamp) FROM EXPORT_TIMESTAMPS
    IF @oldmax IS NULL
    SET @oldmax = 0
    SELECT * FROM ServerA.TableA.fnExportTrafficTS(@oldmax) ORDER BY storeID, TrafDate
    SELECT @newmax = max(timestamp) FROM TRAFFIC t
    IF @newmax > @oldmax
    INSERT INTO EXPORT_TIMESTAMPS
    VALUES(@newmax, GETDATE())
    And now i need to insert the data coming out of this function into ServerB Table B
    And the column names and everything coming out of the function is the same columns in Table B.So, no need to worry there.
    I have never worked with inserting data from function through linked server.
    Can someone please help me with this?
    Thanks,
    Sujith

    Well, first of all, your table structure doesn't match the structure of returned table by your table-valued function.
    This is what table valued function returns:
    [storeID] varchar(32) default('noRefID'),
    [TrafDate] [datetime] default(NULL),
    [QtyTraffic] [float] default(0)
    And this is what your table structure is:
    [tUTL_JobLogging_Key] [int] NOT NULL,
    [StoreId] [varchar](10) NULL,
    [TrafDate] [datetime] NULL,
    [Visits] [numeric](8, 2) NULL
    Apart from different size for the StoreID and using float vs. numeric and different name for the last column, there is one extra column in your table.
    So, this is the first problem you need to correct.
    Also, please post how exactly you're calling your procedure? E.g. the procedure has 2 parameters, but the values of them are not used as you're calculating them in the code. So, I assume they should not be parameters for the procedure.

  • 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
