Inability to scp files between DeveloperDays machines

Hi all!
I am trying to test a Data Guard configuration on two appropriately configured Oracle Open Days images on Virtual Box. Unfortunately when trying to copy the password file from the primary to the standby using the following command.....
scp orapworcl oracle@dg2:/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2/dbs
......I get the following error/message (because it isn't an error as such...)
All passwords are oracle or noted if otherwise.
Could it be that this is a functionality that is turned off for these images? It would be really helpful to get this going!
Many thank for your help in advance!
Regards,
Kev

I gotta it.

NOTE:
Both machines have statically assigned IPAddresses

No passwords have been changed

Excerpt "man scp",
"scp copies files between hosts on a network. It uses ssh(1) for data
transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the same security

Send and receive files between unix machines

Hi friends,
I have to send and receive files from one unix machine to another unix machine. In my first unix machine I have tomcat webserver. Using a JSP I have to send and receive files from this machine to another machine. The destination machine contain some BAAN implementation, which take the files I send as input .
Can you send me a java program to solve this problem.

Hi friends,
I am getting a problem in my application. I will state the complete problem in detail. I have to transfer 3 files from one NT machine to unix machine some where kept in net work, I used an ftp in 'Process p = getRunTime().exec("ftp -i -s:ftp.txt")'. In ftp.txt file I have given the necessary things for ftp to unix machine. The files are transfering into the unix box. When I to the process for the 2nd time I have to check whether the file are exists in the unix box, then only transfer the files. Now, again I am doing ftp bring the files from the unix box to NT machines using 'Process p = getRunTime().exec("ftp -i -s:ftp1.txt")' where ftp1 contains all the necessary things for ftp to unix machine . Now I am checking for the files available in the NT machine using boolean=(new File(filename)).exists(), Fine out of 3 files, 2 file shows the return type as 'true' and one file is showing 'false', even the same happens if I delete the 3 files after checking, out of 3 files, 2 file shows the return type as 'true' and one file is showing 'false'. I went to the folder where I am bring files from and removing the files manually, one file is showing share violation, one process is using the file . I am unable to resolve this problem, will this code what I write is acceptable if not suggest any other code. I have sending all the snippets of the programs. I am doing this in the development environment like this. My production environment is totally both are unix machines.

Copy file from client machine to unix db server

Dear all,
I have oracle form 10g, and data base server using 10 r 2,
I have an oracle for to browse client XML file and return the name of the file including the path to TEXT item what I want to do after that is to copy the seelcted file from the client to DB server (hint this server over Unix operating system)
I tried
V_Cpy_Result := Webutil_File.Copy_File ('C:\File_Name.Xml', '/u01/oradata/odsuat/ssr_xml_dir/Outbound/File_Name.Xml');
but this does't work, please provide me with the way or the command that I can copy the selected file from client to Unix DB server...

Hello,
If you want to transfer files between client machine and A.S. or database machine, use the Webutil file_transfer package's functions.

How do I share files between users on the same machine?

I tried using /Users/shared to share files between myself (Admin user) and another user on the machine (Standard user). Whenever I put a file or a folder into said directory permissions are 755 for directories and 644 for files, my umask is 0022. The files and directories belong to my user and the group staff. This means I can read and write and others can read. If I do the same using the other users account. Permissions are 700 and 600 respectively. (Owner is the other user and group is staff.) Strangely the other users umask is 0022, too.
The result is, that all directories and files I create with my account (Admin user) are readable to every other user on the machine, whereas all directories and files the other user (Standard user) creates are not readable for anyone else. I can easily rectify this using the Terminal and chmod and/or chown, but it is a pain having to do this, since I also need to forcefully restart the Finder App for it to notice the changed permissions.
Ideally I'd like all directories in /Users/Shared to have permissions 777 and all files 666 no matter which user created, copied or moved them to said location. I think this could possibly be done using applescript and shellscripting and the folder action hook. So far my attempts to find such a script on the net or/and write it myself have failed. I'd be grateful for any hints how I:
a) write and setup such a script
b) accomplish what I try to do (share files and folders on the same machine) in another possibly more Mac way
Kind regards
David

The following AppleScript will recursively descend the directory tree and change the items to your modes:
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px; height: 340px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFDDFF;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
repeat with some_item in these_items
ProcessStuff from some_item
end repeat
end adding folder items to
to ProcessStuff from SomeItem
processes items contained in SomeItem, recursively descending the directory tree
parameters - SomeItem [mixed]: an item containing the items to process
returns nothing
set SomeItem to SomeItem as text
set FileInfo to (info for SomeItem as alias)
if (folder of FileInfo) and not (package folder of FileInfo) then -- a folder (not a package)
do shell script "chmod 666 " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem
-- do shell script "chown root:staff " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem user name "me" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges
try -- to get items in the folder
tell application "Finder" to set SubFolder to (items of folder SomeItem)
on error
return {}
end try
repeat with SubItem in SubFolder -- process the sub items
ProcessStuff from SubItem
end repeat
else -- a file
do shell script "chmod 777 " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem
-- do shell script "chown root:staff " & quoted form of POSIX path of SomeItem user name "me" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges
end if
return
end ProcessStuff
</pre>
You shouldn't need to change the ownership, so I commented out the chown shell script since this would need to be run as a super user. You can run a shell script with administrator privileges, but in order to be used by a standard user you will need to provide the appropriate user name and password in the script, which might not be a good idea - note that the folder action script will need to be attached in all accounts that you want to change the permissions, which means that it would need to be accessible to those accounts.

Problem using scp to copy files between Macs

I've been trying to copy a folder hierarchy containing a slew of icon files between two of my Macs. Using scp has proven to be futile.
The command line I'm using is
scp -r -p -C -E [email protected]:/Icons /Icons
After a number of files are copied I receive the following error message on a file and all thereafter:
./icons/Agrapha-Christmas/Boxes: Too many open files
More specifically the "too many open files" message.
I am using Tiger 10.4.7
What am I doing wrong here?

One more piece of information. I ran scp with the verbose switch and have attached a portion of the feedback showing successfull copies followed by the error which occurs on all subsequent files:

I am thinking of buying a iPad but my main desktop machine uses Windows 7 and MS Office. How easy or difficult is it to transfer data files between the iPad and Windows? Are there obvious problems or the need for some form of conversion programs?

Many thanks for any advice.

You don't need conversion programs, iTunes can copy most of your content over to the iPad via the file sharing section, and some apps also support Dropbox, email attachments, transfer via your wifi network. There are a number of apps that you can get that support Microsoft office file (microsoft don't make an app versions of their software) e.g. from Apple there are Pages (word support), Numbers (excel) and Keynote (powerpoint), and from third-parties there are apps such as Documents To Go and QuickOffice HD

How to find difference of files between 2 checkpoints in a virtual machine

hi ,
i had 2 checkpoint . certain fucntionality works in one and not in other checkpoint .
Same files are copied to 2 checkpoints .
IIS webserver /.net framework i guess might be corrupted . how do we find the difference in files between 2 checkpoints .

Checkpoints are binary differences between two states of the VM thus there's no concept of change as it relates to file level or configuration level changes to track and I can't imagine really trying to find a difference between the two in this way.
If this relates to creating a base/reference OS image, it's just another reason to use a build and caputre task sequence so that you always have a freshly built and clean image that is easily recreated.

Blob processing varies between databases; see also examples for whatever database you are using, e.g.

If you are storing text data instead of binary data, replace "blob" by "clob" in the searches.

How do I share files between two Macs on my wireless network?

I have an iMac G4 and an ibook G3 on a wireless network. I have "file sharing" activated on both computers. (Also Appletalk, which may or may not be a misguided move, but I got the idea from OSX "Help.")
When I try to get from either computer onto the other, my computer is recognized by name (another alternative is to log on as a "guest"). I'm prompted for a password. None of the passwords I use works. I've tried the administrative passwords for both computers.
How do I get beyond this hurdle to share files? I've posted elsewhere to no avail. This must be an easy one. How do you share files between two macs on one network?

Do your accounts on the machines have the same short name? It's an issue I've seen a few names.. one machine with bsmith, the other with bobsmith, but the long names for both being "Bob Smith". The login windows would confuse users because it showed their names, but because the short names didn't match, it wouldn't work.
The password you should use is the administrative one, so I don't know why you're not having luck.

How do I share files between my two computers?

I have one computer (which is somewhat old) that doesn't have wireless capabilities as well as a newer laptop and a Wii which are both connected to the internet wirelessly. How do I share files and such between these machines?

Enable File and Printer Sharing on each computer.Also make sure both the computer's are in the same workgroup...
The default workgroup name in Windows Vista has been changed to WORKGROUP. In WindowsXP, the default workgroup name is MSHOME...
Also go into the computer software firewall on each computer, and set it to "trust" the other computers on your network.
If your firewall or PC security program keeps a list of trusted applications (also known as a "trusted zone"), then make sure that your router is in the trusted zone on your firewall...

How do I share files between a PowerPC 8100 OS 7.6.1 and an iMac OS 10.7.4 over ethernet

How do I share files between a PowerPC 8100 OS 7.6.1 and an iMac OS 10.7.4 over peer to peer ethernet connection? I'm trying to get data off the old machine so I can retire it for good. Can I just save the data and worry about file conversion later?

Addendum
There is a relatively simple server-based way of avoiding difficulties with incompatible system versions et cetera. It could possibly be of some interest.
I tested the following between a System 7.5.3 PowerBook 540 and a Windows XP PC. It ought to work with a System 7.6.1 Power Macintosh 8100 and a MacOS X 10.7.4 iMac as well.
a) Download and install Microsoft Personal Web Server 1.0 for Macintosh onto the 8100. If the 8100 does not have a direct Internet connection, carry out the download on another computer, and then try to transfer the hqx file (as it is) on a CD-R (burn at a low speed) or a 1.44 MB floppy (use StuffIt Expander to decode the hqx on the 8100). Do not change or add anything after the installation; just leave the files as they are.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/164571
b) Drag a compressed example archive (we can call it example_file.sit) to the folder My Personal Web Site (there are other files inside this folder; do not worry about them). Ensure that the compression format is compatible with a decompression tool on the receiving computer.
c) Many people have access to a router (wired or wireless) with a built-in Ethernet switch (usually something like four LAN ports). If applicable, disconnect any incoming Internet (the WAN port). If possible/necessary, switch off the wireless (see the router manual for details about this).
d) Switch off both computers (and the router).
e) Connect an AAUI to RJ-45 transceiver (such as the aforementioned Apple Ethernet Twisted-Pair Transceiver) to the AAUI port of the 8100.
f) Connect an Ethernet cable from the transceiver to the first LAN port of the router.
g) Connect an Ethernet cable from the second LAN port of the router to the iMac.
h) Switch on the router.
i) Start the computers.
j) The TCP/IP control panel on the 8100 is set to connect via Ethernet. DHCP Server is used in this case.
k) Open the Microsoft Personal Web Server control panel.
l) Click on the Start button.
m) Wait (can take a while).
n) Notice the exact address at My URL (under Monitor Web Site). Could be something like http://192.168.1.2 (depends on the router).
o) Launch a web browser on the iMac (I did the testing on the PC with Firefox and Safari).
p) Enter the exact address (see n above) in the browser's address field (http://192.168.1.2 in my example). Press Return. A standard web page should appear. Disregard this page for now.
q) Add the exact file name (example_file.sit) to the address shown in the field. The result would be http://192.168.1.2/example_file.sit in my case. Press Return.
r) The file should start to download to the modern computer.
All the above is intended for a local connection only (otherwise security settings become of importance), and should be considered purely experimental. There are further possibilities (including an FTP plug-in), but it also makes everything more complicated. I have not tested the behaviour with large files or with various files types. Sometimes the server may crash. If so, try a restart. Make sure that you have backup copies of important files already at the 8100 before you begin.
Good luck!

How to share files between computers and TC

What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
Thanks

What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
On each Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Sharing
Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

Sharing Files Between 3 Arch Computers Using SAMBA [SOLVED]

I am trying to network 3 of my computers together. They are all running Arch 64. I setup the smb.conf file according to various tutorials and then the folders show up on the other computers, but when you double click them (using Gnome 3) it gives an error "unable to mount location, failed to mount windows share"
