Locking the guest system resolution

Hi everyone,
I'm having this annoying problem with my VM. I use VM Remote Console to interact with the VMs so the VM is a "window". The problem is that whenever I accidentally click on the lower border of the VMRC window, this will force the VM to change the screen resolution to a lower one, because the VM have a resolution which is bigger than that of my monitor. And if my bot is playing, this completely messes the poker table grid, which means occlusion and so on. Any way to fix this? I'm using VMware Server 2.0.2, if that's important. Thanks!

Hi,
this won't work so easiliy with a "Host Only" network.
You either need a bridges network or a NAT network.
Easiest thing probably will be to add another interface (network) to the VM and assigned it as bridged.
Then download/update oracle-validated and remove the interface again.
This way, you don't need to change anything on the server.
Regards
Sebastian

  • Mouse tooltip is locking the entire system

    Hello friends at www.oracle.com ,
    after defining some tooltips to Forms fields like text items, display items, push buttons, etc., I've seen that the following sequence of actions may cause a system lock. (Assume there's a main Forms program, and a Forms sub-program has been called through main menu.)
    1. Put the mouse pointer over a field that has tooltip text.
    2. Close the Forms sub-program by pressing ALT-F4 (Windows shortcut to close any program); it will take you back to the Forms main program. (Tooltip text will still stay stopped at mouse position)
    3. Move to another Windows program, like Explorer for example, and try to return to the main program. This main program is now locked, shows the 'Working...' message at hint line, and stays locked.
    Only CTRL+ALT+DEL will stop it, and the Forms main program never sends any answer.
    Could you please tell me why does a simple tooltip may lock an entire system?
    Hope I was clear - if not, please ask me.
    Thanks, and best regards,

    Quit the App Store app and reset your iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Internet access to the guest system for Host-Only configuration

    Hello,
    I have a windows host linux guest vBox environment and it's configured as host-only. How can I enable internet access within the guest? I am towards the end of a RAC installation and upon running buildcluster.sh, it says the recommended RPM "oracle-validated" not installed or has unsatisfied dependencies. It seems i have quite a few RPMs need to download and thus prefer to be able to connect to the internet within the guest so i can do it from the Oracle yum server.
    Thanks,

  • My network on the time capsule has a "lock" by it so I know that it requires a password. My guest network has no "lock" by it so I am thinking that it is not locked and people could use it. How  do I lock my guest network on my time capsule or delete it?

    My Time Capsule had a guest network that does not have a "lock" sign by it. So I am thinking that other people can use my wireless internet. My other network does have a "lock" by it. How do I delete or lock the guest network? I obvioulsy am not a computer savy individual so please use laymans terms if you can help me. Please and thank you.

    In any event, if your OS X version is 10.7.x, download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Lion:
    Lion: AirPort Utility 5.6.
    If your OS X version is 10.5.x or 10.6.x, download and install AirPort Utility 5.5.3:
    Leopard, Snow Leopard: AirPort Utility 5.5.3.
    After you install the appropriate version of AirPort Utility, open it. The program will be located in your Utilities folder, which in turn is found in your Applications folder.
    To open the Utilities folder, go to the Finder and select "Utilities" from the Go menu:
    AirPort Utility 5.6 looks like this:
    ... but make sure you use the version of AirPort Utility you just downloaded.
    Launch AirPort Utility and select your Time Capsule. Click Manual Setup, then the Guest Menu tab, then you can elect to disable the guest network, or to establish whatever security settings you want.
    The window looks somewhat like this:
    If your version of AirPort Utility does not look anything like that, you are probably not using the one you just downloaded. Find it and start over.
    When you are finished configuring your Time Capsule, click Update and allow the Time Capsule to restart.

  • Is it possible to sandbox the entire system?

    DISCLAIMER
    This is partly just thinking out loud.
    There may be some completely obvious solution for achieving this that I have not come across.
    My ideas may be flawed.
    I saw the other thread about sandboxing but that had a different focus and went in a different direction than this hopefully will.
    First, by sandboxing I mean the following:
    * let an application see the actual system, but only selectively, e.g. make /usr visible but /home inaccessible
    * intercept all writes to the system
    * let an application see all intercepted writes as though they have actually occurred
    * intercept all network communication and allow the user to approve or deny it, e.g. enable a source download from one site but prevent the application from calling home to another
    * the application cannot escape the sandbox
    * the application should not be able to detect the sandbox
    Is this possible?
    First I thought about using FUSE to mask the entire filesystem but this would affect all applications and probably wouldn't work on a running sysem.
    Then I thought about using virtualization. Maybe it would be possible to create a fake base image of the live host system and then add an overlay to that to create a sandboxed virtual clone of the host system. The network connection could probably by the host in that case.
    I don't know if it would be at all possible though to create a fake base image of the live host system. I also don't know if it would need to be static or if the image could remain dynamic. In the latter case. it would probably be possible to create the image with FUSE. Using FUSE it might even be possible to forgo the overlay image as FUSE itself could intercept the writes. There are obvious complexities in that though, such as how to present changes to a file by the host to the guest if the guest has modified it previously. I also have no idea if the guest system could use a clone of the hosts file system.
    Why I would want to do this:
    * "Safely" test-run anything while protecting your system (hide your sensitive data, protect all of your files, control network access)**.
    * Simplified package building: build the application as it's meant to be built in the sandbox, compare the sandbox to the host and then use the differences to build the package***.
    * It would be cool.
    ** Before anyone interjects with the "only run trusted apps" mantra, this would also apply to trusted apps which might contain bugs. Let's face it, most people do not plough through source code of trusted apps before building/installing/running them.
    *** This was prompted by my ongoing installation of SAGE which is built in the post-install function instead of the PKGBUILD itself due to the complexities of the build process. The general idea is to create a way in which all application that can be built can be packaged uniformly.

    Are you sure that you can change the permissions of symlinks themselves? I think I've tried to make files read-only via symlinks on a local server but ended up using bindfs because it wasn't possible. Even if you can, symlinking everything that might be necessary for a given environment would not be ideal, plus I don't think symlinks can be used across different filesystems.
    If a real-life human can figure out if it's he/she is in a chroot and break out of it, then he/she can write a script to do the same. I want a sandbox that could run malicious code with no effect on the system (if that's possible). Also, I think if the chroot idea were truly feasible, makepkg would have been using it for years already to simply install packages in the chroot as you normally would and then package them. There would also be several sandbox applications that could run applications safely. So far I have yet to find any.
    I admit that I haven't looked into using a chroot in detail though and of course I may have missed some application which creates such a setup. Right now I think using per-application namespaces with fuse seems the most promising but I won't know until I've finished implementing a test application. If it turns out that it's a dead end I'll take harder look at chroot but it really doesn't seem to be able to do what I want.

  • Installing 11gR2 (linux.zseries64) on oracle linux 5 guest system failed

    Dear experts,
    I decided to post a detailed thread since it seems my last thread is totally forgotten. Hopefully, this thread could clarify my problem of installing oracle database 11.2.0.2 in oracle linux guest system in windows 7 host system. Sorry about that.
    I installed oracle linux 5 update 6 x86_64 bits guest system in my windows 7 host using oracle virtualbox 4.2.12 so that I can install oracle database 11.2.0.2 (linux.zseries64_11gR2_database_1of2.zip, linux.zseries64_11gR2_database_2of2.zip). The oracle database I downloaded has some functions which are not available in 11.2.0.1. These two disks are extracted in a shared folder.
    I followed the instructions in a guide to run the installation:
    # yum install oracle-validated
    It succeeded. and, I used uname -a to return this additional information:
    "Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-400.26.2.el5uek #1"
    Then I set these below:
    SELINUX=permissive
    mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1
    chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
    chmod -R 775 /u01
    xhost + 127.0.0.1
    and, added something in .bash_profile:
    # Oracle Settings
    TMP=/tmp; export TMP
    TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR
    ORACLE_HOSTNAME=127.0.0.1; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME
    ORACLE_UNQNAME=DB11G; export ORACLE_UNQNAME
    ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME
    ORACLE_SID=DB11G; export ORACLE_SID
    PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
    Then, I set DISPLAY environment in terminal:
    export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
    Finally, I logged into the guest system as a user, not root, to run the installation. However, I got the frustrating error message:
    [hsl@localhost database]$ ./runInstaller
    ./runInstaller: line 254: /media/sf_My_Share/Oracle/database/install/.oui: cannot execute binary file
    Can anybody please give some advices to fix the problem. The installation is very important to me. Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Dynamic System Resolution and Custom Login Modules

    I'm trying to achieve the following, and wondered whether anyone could validate that is possible, and possible solutions.
    We want to use Dynamic System Resolution to programatically determine which system alias (and therefore which R3 client) should be returned based on the user. So far so good.
    When the user logs in, we want them to be able to specify which R3 client they wish to use whilst logged in to EP. We are considering writing a custom login module to do this, which will strip the client the user wishes to use out of the j_user username, and stores the client value *somewhere* so that the Dynamic System Resolution code can access it and base the system alias it returns on the user's prefered client.
    Considering the DSR code only has access to the IUser object it would be handy if our login module could store the prefered client as an attribute in the IUser object. Is it possible to set custom attributes in custom login modules for a given user?
    We want to do this to avoid having to have an EP instance per client in a given R3 system, and to avoid duplicating worksets by creating delta linked copies and overriding the client number.
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Steve

    Hello,
    Before even doing such an elaborated construction, I do not succeed in writing a working Dynamic System Resolution.
    The service doing the resolution is never called when the method getSystemID() is invoked.
    I know that the registry is read (I first test with a system alias which was in the PCD and get an error when debugging, I forget that you cannot use the same system alias in the PCD and in the Dynamic System Resolution service) but afterward the resolving service is not called.
    Has anyone an idea ?
    Thanks a lot
    Best regards
    Richard

  • Is there a way I can permanently disable the security lock thing in System Preferences?

    Aside from logging and using the root account on a daily basis, is there a way to permanently be rid of the security lock thing in System Preferences?
    Yosemite has a bug (?) where if an Admin account has its password set to blank (empty), you can't remove the security lock...
    You can click it, it'll ask for Username and Password (Why?), and when you click on 'Unlock', it unlocks for a brief moment and instantly locks itself again...
    This is beyond infuriating. Do advise.

    Thanks for taking the time to reply.  However I'm quite aware that the sleep/wake button disables the screen.  Unfortunately, mea maxima culpa, I sometimes accidentally hit shuttle before I've pressed the sleep/wake button, often when I am trying to do more than one thing at once.  Sometimes I accidentally hit shuffle at other times too,eg when waking up the phone. 
    This is especially exasperating when listening to classical pieces with multiple movements.  I will look for an alternative music player for the iphone, as I don't think the default music application and I are a good match.
    Thanks again,

  • Output device DKRDSP029 is locked in the SAP system - RFC error

    Hi,
    One user of the system has got the following error when he is loading his "Change Office and communication" iView in the portal. This is the SAP standard DK used iView!
    No one else has this error in the system as far as we know and the DKRDSP029 is a printer. I had no idea that a printer was connected to this information but apparently there is.
    Does anyone has any input to what the problem actually is?
    Thanks :-)...
