Is it possible to sniff connection between Oracle AS and Oracle DB?

i searched for documentation about security on communication between AS and DB. mod_plsql is used for connection to DB, it has some authentication modes but i think this is not security on protocol, just a user level security.
as in topic, is it possible to sniff and get network packages? if so, how to prevent?
or do you direct me to some oracle documentation about network security?
regards,
Ayhan

Thanks for the reply Daniel,
My colleague has looked at the underlying data structures and they are not intuitive, in addition there's nothing to say that Oracle would not change the schema in a future release so I'd have to rule this out for that reason.
I am aware of Oracle APIs for replicating data between;-
OID -> OID
or
OID -> To any other LDAP compliant directory i.e. Sun's IPlanet (albeit somewhat limited from the previous option).
What I'm looking for is an API that will replicate data between OID and a DATABASE.
My rationale for requiring this interface is because our customer has data in OID that we need as reference data in a database to improve the efficacy of data analysis, LDAP is very poor at this. I am resisting writing the code to do this replication until I can prove no API exists.
Kind regards,
Chris

Need help in establishing the connection between BO federator and Oracle DB

Hi Experts,
I am working on BO federator and now I need to establish the connection between BO federator and the oracle db to use this as the source for the federator,
I know we need to download the respective oracle DB connect .jar file from the oracle web site and place it under the drivers section(folder) of the BO Federator.
Now I need to understand what is/are the next steps I need to follow and what are the values for the following parameters which are required during establishing the connectivity while creation of data sources from federator end.
Host Name:
Port:
SID:
Schema:
Please share the details, any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks with regards,
Vinay

Hi,
Please find below details.
Host Name: Server Name or IP Address (Oracle)
Port: (oracle Server Port)
SID:SID is a unique name for an Oracle database instance. -> To switch between Oracle databases, users must specify the desired SID <-. The SID is included in the CONNECT DATA parts of the connect descriptors in a TNSNAMES.ORA file
Schema: no need to enter(Blank)

No connection between wireless keyboard and IMac

I had to change batteries in my wireless keyboard for my Imac. After that I did not manage to reestablish the connection between the keyboard and the machine. I did not manage to get the blue tooth going again before I went to bed and the session timed out , my IMac is now locked and since my keyboard does not work I am not able to type the password. How can I solve this?

Are the batteries installed properly? Have you tried other batteries?
Have you read for possible solutions over in the "More Like This" thread over here?----------------------->
Plan B: It's a good idea to keep a wired keyboard as a standby. Suggest that you get hold of one.

Frequently transfering databases between MS SQL and Oracle

Hello all,
I am looking for a solution to easily, efficiently and be able to migrate/transfer databases between MS SQL and Oracle frequently.
I need to be able to replicate a databases on Ms SQL and Oracle for testing purposes. I will need to do this on frequent basis - almost once a week.
Please suggest what would be the best way.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Justin,
You have guessed it right to a great extend. Yes dont actually need to develop, rather need to test an application that supports SQL and Oracle databases. Now when testing the application its obviously vital to create proper systematic test data. This usually takes a lot of time and effort from the testing team/team-member. So, yes what I need to do is create the test data on one database(may it be SQL or Oracle) and migrate/transfer the data into the database on another server( ie. SQL to Oracle or Oracle to SQL).
So,
Are you developing a product that works against both SQL Server and Oracle and trying to synchonize development efforts?Yes, thats correct to extend, I need to test an application against both the servers, as it supports both types of databases, and try to reduce the test setup efforts (literally double the amount) that go in after manual creating same data on each type of database.
Are you trying to replicate structural changes between systems?I am not 100% sure, what you mean by this. But whats important and enough for me is to replicate the data. It would not be a lot of work to run the scripts and create empty schema objects.
Are you trying to replicate data changes between systems? The fact that you're only doing this weekly suggests that you're not working in a traditional replication environment.Yes, again as I mentioned above. It would be sufficient for me to just get a copy of the initial dataset. And then replicating changes to it would not be that important. However, if I can achieve a solution to this, I can by all means create a new database on the one server (SQL or Oracle) and take the data-set of the most recent/correct changes and replicate it on the other type of server as and when needed.
No - this is not a traditional replicating environment. I say weekly, because it is usually once in a week or forthnight that someone from the team will need to spent time to manually copy the test-data onto the another type of server in order to run the same testcases on two types of servers.
How do you handle conflicts (i.e. if I modify a row in both systems, which modification wins)? This is not really a problem in my scenario, as I only need to be able to transfer the data across to the different server and forget about the two databases actually being in-sync.
I have also, looked at DTS for a possible solution on SQL, however it seems highly un-realistic, having to map somewhere like 250 tables from the a drop-down list, only because the two database servers use different cases to represent tables internals. So, table 'Table' in my application's SQL database is called 'TABLE' is my applications Oracle database. DTS is highly inefficient in dealing with this. Also, having 250 tables move makes this a bit of a pain.
Thank you Justin for your response; I highly appreciate your inputs.

Questions on the comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX

Hi All,
The link below presents information about Oracle Application Express for Oracle Forms Developers, the table at the end of the page shows a comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX, all the points of comparisons are clear for me except 3 points which are:
•Locking, what is meant by locking models?
•Database Connections, what is meant by Synchronous/Asynchronous connections in Oracle Forms and Oracle Apex?
•Architecture, what is meant by 2tier and 3 tier connections?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_for_forms.html
What I need is a simple explanation for these points without deep details.
Thanks

Hi
That is how I understand that document:
Locking: Forms, by default, locks a row as soon as the user starts modifying the data. That is pessimistic locking. Apex, on other hand (and optionally forms also) do not lock the record, but before applying any changes checks if the data has changed since the user queried it (what for some reason is called optimistic "locking")
DB connections: I am not sure why they used the terms synchronous/asynchronous, but the difference is that Forms, by default, keeps an permanent DB connection while the user is using the application, while Apex gets a connection from a connection pool every time a page is requested/submitted.
Architecture: Forms (in its web version at least) has 3 tiers: the browser, the appserver where the forms service runs and the database. As Apex runs inside the database, there are only 2 tiers: the browser and the database (though you still may need an http server in between which serves static content, I don't think it is considered part of the application in this context). If you are talking about client/server forms, then there are only 2 tiers.
I hope this helps!

IWay adapters between SAP ERP and Oracle

Hi,
The systemlandscape in the future is a SAP ERP System without a java stack and a Oracle system.
Importend: And without a SAP Portal and a SAP PI.
I think we will install the iWay Oracle adapter on the SAP ERP system and on the Oracle the iWay for SAP adapter.
I this solution generally possible with iWay adapters or maybe others solution between SAP ERP and Oracle?
Thank you for all answers.
Regards
Richard

Hi,
Your question is not clear.
It is true that SAP is no more supporting Dual stack systems because of performance related problems. So, we need to install As ABAP and As Java system separately. As far as oracle is concerned, you need a database to install ERP system then why you want to install adapter ?
Thanks

Connection between SMD Agent and SMD server via SAProuter

In our scenario, we have to setup the connection between SMD agent and SMD server(solution manager server) via saprouter. But during the installation of SMD agent, we can only specify the hostname of the managing system, we have no place to add saprouter string(/H/..../H/). I I am not sure if we could connect the agent and server via saprouter, if so how to do it?
Hope someone can give us your precious advices on this issue.
Karl

Perfect; and thanks for your response. I found this help page for developers to implement P4 support over SAP router: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/48/2992d7ad8758d7e10000000a421937/content.htm
But in the SM Diagnostics Setup options I can set up only a direct HTTP adresses and have no options to set up connections over a sap router to P4 ports directly. I can at the moment only solve my problems with NAT or firewall rules.
And also the diagnostic agent setup has no options to config a proxy or sap router. I found yesterday a blog on sdn side with screenshots of the setup with all available connection opetions to SLD... sry I can not post this link today.
This is an official statment of SAP from the current version of SMD guide; it is also possible but why not from the beginning???:
In some network conficurations, the Diagnostics agent has to connect to the Managing system though a SAP router.
This feature will be fully supported in Solution Manager 7 Ehp2 (7.02).
In order to enable this feature in Ehp1, please contact the Diagnostics Agent support team to get information on how to
setup the agent and on which patch level you can perform the installation.
This thread were a long time not answared; proxy and routing connections are mostly stepmotherly handled by SAP; this is also a problem by set up of automatic RFC generations in SMSY; why there are in the setup assitents no options to set up the router string.
I have absolutly no comprehension for this in year 2011. All this technics are good known and long time tested.
In this case the f**k has provoked an answare to this thread and this is what I expected; but sorry for my style You are right I could also writh why the heck

Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

Hi,
I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
ex:
With oracle7
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP 'CHAMP
champ1 champ2
With Oracle 9
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
champ1 champ2
So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
Thanx.

Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
Anyway,
You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
set lin 310Regards.

(Trouble printing) Trouble with connection between Macbook Pro and Hp Deskjet 1510.

Trouble with connection between Macbook Pro and Hp Deskjet 1510. (Nothing Prints).
I have a Macbook Pro and am having difficulty printing documents from ‘Pages' from my Hp Deskjet 1510. I have installed the necessary software for the printer and it is connected via USB. Every time I try to print the printer icon comes up as it should, 'printing' and then 'job completed' and then the icon disappears. (Nothing is printed.) I thought it might be something to do with Pages compatibility with the printer but exporting the document to Word or making it a PDF doesn’t change anything. I don’t have Microsoft Word on my computer. The scanner does work and when I printed a ‘Test Page’ that worked too.
Let me know if you know why this is happening.

With these settings the network now works flawlessly, however, when i have my ethernet cable plugged in, my internet access via my airport card(on the macbook pro) is no longer available. Hoping you can tell me why this would be with this info i've provided.
Educated guess. The networking devices have priorities as to which are used. The standard order is that Ethernet has a higher priority than Airport.
While your Ethernet is unplugged it is inactive and the Mac ignores it. Once you plug it in, the Mac sees that it is active and switches traffic to that interface.
I actually take advantage of this feature at home, but configuring my Airport and Ethernet with identical fixed IP addresses. Normally I'll use Airport, but if I'm copying a huge file and I want faster performance, I'll just walk my MacBook (previously iBook, previously Powerbook) over to my Ethernet switch and plug in my MacBook. Magically, the Mac detects that the Ethernet is active and continues the file transfer uninterrupted over the faster 100baseT Ethernet connection. When the transfer is finished, or if I really need to move back to the Comfy Chair, I unplug the Ethernet cable, and all activity reverts back to the Airport, all without disrupting any existing networking connections.
You on the other hand have totally different settings for your Ethernet and your Airport, so when you switch to Ethernet, you basically loose your Airport connections.
Something you can try:
System Preferences -> Network
Gear icon on the bottom left, next to the [+] [-] icons.
Select *Set Service Order...*
Now Drag the network interfaces into the perfer priority order you want. In this case put Airport above Ethernet.
NOTE: You may want to create a new Network Location for this, instead of messing with your normal home Location (which is most likely the default Automatic. That way you have your original you can always fall back to.

Can't establish wireless connection between the printer and computer.

I recently upgraded my wireless to an Apple AirPort Time Capsule. I'm able to set up the printer via USB cable. And I'm able to set up the printer on the network via the Airport WPA utility. However I cannot establish a wireless connection between the computer and the printer. When I go to the printers window in my system prefereces, there is no wireless printer available to add in the "available printers" menu. Only the USB version printer is listed and of course when I disconnect the USB cable it shows as offline.I've tried all the fixes on HP's support pages. I've tried reinstalling the printer on both the router and the computer numerous times. The only thing I haven't done is reinstall the printer using the "Install Wizard" software that is supposed to come with the printer - (mine never came with it in the first place and of course HP doesn't have it available for download). And when I reset the printer to factory settings, then connect it to the computer via the USB, there is no installation software that pops up. Cant even find the **bleep** thing in "Finder". (I'm assuming that it should show up as some sort of external device.) I've checked to make sure both computer and printer are on the same network. (sometimes my computer will grab a connection with the next nearest network.) I've checked all the settings for the printer via the HTML configuration utility. I've even updated my Macbook software and restarted it multiple times. Note: the printer actually worked for a bit when I first switched routers, but the printer's wireless function went offline several times and then quit altogether. Really frustrated that I bought another HP product thinking this time things would be different. HP is no help unless you want to pay $$ for a phone call. I'm about ready to take this thing out in the desert to use for target practice and never buy another HP product ever again.

Hi , I saw your post regarding the problems you are having with your LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer not showing on your Macintosh computer. I may have found some resources for you.
I have a few questions for you, so I can offer some additional assistance:Before you upgraded to the Apple AirPort Time Capsule, was the printer working wirelessly without any issues?
When you say; 'I reset the printer to factory settings', how where you trying to do this?
I found some instructions from this post: How do I reset my Laserjet p1102w to its defaults, copied here for you:
To restore the printer back to factory settings, turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and the cancel button (x button) then turn the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise. (When they say turn the printer off, I think they mean unplug the power cable.)
"I've checked to make sure both computer and printer are on the same network." Do you know if you are able to access the printers Embedded Web Server (EWS)?To access the EWS - Make sure that the Ready light () is on and that the printer is idle and silent.Press and hold the Cancel button (), and release it when the Ready light () begins blinking.The configuration page prints.Type the IP address or host name of the product in the address field of a supported Web browser, and then press Enter on your keyboardLet me know if this page loads
To answer a few more items you have listed:... When I go to the printers window in my system preferences, there is no wireless printer available to add in the "available printers" menu.This could be an issue with your print system, I recommend resetting the printing system and then Repair Disk Permissions - after that try to add the printer again.
... the "Install Wizard" software that is supposed to come with the printer - (mine never came with it in the first place and of course HP doesn't have it available for download)HP provides their software/drivers to Apple to be released through your Apple software updates. You can review this document on how to Install a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update. Which leads into your next point...
... there is no installation software that pops upWhen you connect the USB cable your mac may still recognize the printer software as being already installed - check for apple updatesOn the Mac, click the Apple menu (), and then click Software Update, or click About this Mac, and then click Software Update. A list of available updates displays.
... Not seeing the printer in "Finder" From what I understand most printers will not show in Finder unless you install a memory card into a supported port on certain printer models, only then will it read it like an external device. A few more things you can check are that the new settings in the Apple AirPort Time Capsule are setup to allow the printer to communicate. There are several of these settings listed in this document; Tips and Workarounds for Common Wireless Network Printer Issues. HP regularly releases firmware updates that may also correct the problem you are experiencing. You can click on this link to Getting Printer Updates for HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer. I did find 2 more documents that may offer some additional information as well;HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer - Connecting the Printer After Changing Your Wireless NetworkAn 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Displays for the HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or the details of what happened. I look forward to hearing from you, hopefully with good news! Thanks,
