Need to login to remote X server on suse enterprise server 9 from mac

hello,
I have the a powerbook G4 with the latest OS X installed. I also have X11 installed.
Can someone please tell me how I can login to a vnc server on a sles9 server from my mac laptop? I tried the browser way but the picture looks aweful. I'd like to use a X session from the sles9 server to my mac laptop.
Thanks,
Oskar

Hi Oskar,
   Thanks for the info on the browser method. I won't get to test it for a bit but it seems like a lot to ask of a browser, even if it does render images well. Which browser do you use?
   Please forgive my manners; welcome to Apple Discussions. I don't know how much experience you have reading the Discussion but this one isn't touchy-feely. It's very easy to cut-and-paste from the terminal, especially Apple's, in which it can be done completely from the keyboard. Thus it almost seems prevarication to be vague.
> I TRY the ssh -Y method
   This is vague. Please post the command. Is X11 running when you do this?
> It doesn't work.
   This is more vague. In addition to the command, please post the output, and any entries in your console.log and the system.log that ensue.
> it's running kde to I have kde& at the end of that line
   When you login to the remote computer, please don't put a command in the line. Login to the machine to get shell access and then invoke the command. You might see some output that would otherwise be "hidden" in a remote log. What is this "kde" command? The usual command for starting KDE is "startkde."
   I've never tried to forward KDE. It's not an application that runs in a window. I'm sure there would be no problem setting up the tunnel but it was hard enough to port KDE to run with Apple's X11. Thus I can easily see the potential for difficulties but I don't know of any problems and I actually think I remember someone saying they did it. You might try running X11 full screen instead of rootless.
> Is there anything I should be doing on the suse server?
   Do you mean besides configuring and starting the secure shell daemon? Yes, you might have to make a hole in the firewall. There should be a suse "sysadmin" way to configure it but if you have to edit the sshd_config file and invoke sshd yourself, we can probably help with that.
> also, chicken of the vnc doesn't work well with sles
vnc server.
   That probably means you don't have the bandwidth for it. I know that using CotVNC can be almost like being at the machine and Linux is generally fast even on old hardware. That's all the more reason to get X window forwarding working.
   If you can't find the information to diagnose the problem with secure shell in the logs, you can also invoke secure shell with the "-vvv" option. That will dump a maximal amount of diagnostic information.

oracle 10.2 on AIX -- need to connect to remote SQL server by dblink
i didn't see a odbc diectory in our oracle home path. how do i know odbc driver is installed in the oracle on our AIX server.
If it is there, do i just need to modify the odbc.ini and then the inithsodbc.ora, linster.ora, tnsnammes.ora files, or am I missing something
Appreciate your response

when you want to connect from Oracle to a SQl Server you need the Oracle Gateway (HSODBC or even better Dg4ODBC) and a FOREIGN ODBC DRIVER for your foreign database - a SQL Server ODBC driver. You have to get this driver from a 3rd party vendor - Oracle does not offer any foreign ODBC drivers.
So before being able to use DG4ODBC/HSODBC you need to install from a 3rd paryt vendor a SQL Server ODBC driver. Commercial vendrs are for example Data Direct, Openlink or Easysoft.
On Unix ODBC drivers commonly also require a driver manager. If the ODBC driver vendor does not ship one with the ODBC driver you can get it from www.unixodbc.org

Need to access/connect Remote Unix server from Java

Please any one give me a direct solution for connecting a remote Unix server through telnet connection from java application. Thanks in advance..

If I run the below program codes, in the console it is asking to enter username and password in manual but I need to give it automatically.
The highlighted "root" is entered by the user manually using keyboard.
Expected:
I mean the username, password and some action is set to be automatic, so that it should not ask the user to enter the input from keyboard.

Hi,
1)To get mysql JDBC driver to work on my Linux system, i had to add the classpath for the driver to the .bashrc:
CLASSPATH=./:home/<user>/java/mm.mysql-2.0.6/:home/<user>/java
Note that I execute the java program as the user <user> (and .bashrc is the config. file of this <user>...). Perhaps you must do this as well for the Oracle driver on your client machine. I don't know if your client machine is UNIX/LINUX or WINDOWS. It should only be clear that the CLASSPATH is set in the config. file of the user under which the java program runs and that this user has the permission to access the files.
There are no differences between accessing the database locally than accessing it by a network connection. The only thing that matters are that the connection parameters are right and that the network works properly.
2) are you sure that the table tname (case sensitivity?) exits?

Can not connect to a remote SSH server with my mac

Ok have tried 4 different applications, fetch , captain ftp, terminal, etc.
I am trying and connect to a friends ssh server to upload some file logs. I have the correct login/password, have tried both protocol 1 and 2. Port 22 is correct. I keep getting the error message
User logging error - captain ftp
SFTP connection to ..... could not be opened becasue the connection to the SFTP server could not be established or was lost - Fetch
sshexchangeidentification: Connection closed by remote host - Ternminal
We have tested it using Telnet and other programs on a PC and all is well.
When i try and connect he receives the message
Refused connect from cpe-"ip address"(ip address)
policy: HostKey/etc/ssh/sshhost_rsakey
Do i have a setting somewhere i am missing.

1st, is the server behind a home router? Has port 22 been "Port Forwarded" from the internet side to the server's side of the router?
2nd, from a Terminal session use the command:
ssh -v -v -v [email protected]
The -v -v -v triplets will give you a wealth of ssh connection information. If you read through this carefully you may find the root cause of your problems (assuming the 1st step above doesn't yield results).
Another thing to consider, is that ssh will not make a connection to an account that it does not consider to be reasonably secure. This means that the home directory of the account and specific key subdirectories must have proper ownership and permissions, or ssh will not connect. The specific ownership and permissions needed and the files and directories checked are spelled out in the ssh man page
man ssh

Need to Install Java SE 6 Runtime in order to launch Illustrator from Mac OS Yosemite? But it's not available anywhere?

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this? I upgraded to Yosemite, and now I can't launch Illustrator because it says I need Java SE 6 runtime in order to open it. But that version is not available anywhere, not on Apple's website and not on Oracle's. I did install the latest version of Java, but that didn't solve the problem. Apparently Illustrator (and I assume all of the creative cloud apps) require version 6? Any input is appreciated, this is SO frustrating ...

yes. but if you follow that link and click on "download" you get an Apple message that says "We're sorry. We can't find the page you're looking for." That was the first thing I tried. Any other ideas?

Accessing remote SQL server

Hello, all.
This is the first time I've ever needed to access a remote SQL server, and I'm getting an attribute validation error for the cfquery tag.
The CFQUERY tag currently opens as:
<cfquery name="[queryName]" debug="1" username="#User#" password="#Pass#" dbserver="[SQL Server IP]" dbname="[databaseName]">
What are the attributes that I need in order to remotely access the database?
Thanks,

You need to setup a datasource in the CF admin pointing to the remote
server, using dbServer will not work.

Need to have the keyboard and mouse 100 feet away from Mac

I need to have the Keyboard and Mouse/Track-pad 100 feet away from Mac Mini.
What are my options ?
Thanks

In your case with the need to control it from multiple locations the best and realistically only solution is to use Screen Sharing to remotely control the Mac.
With this solution you can control it from anywhere you have a network connection and could use a laptop to control the Mac mini. This is the solution I use in a very similar situation.
Bluetooth does not have enough range, even RF wireless keyboard and mice devices also would not have the range, and I don't believe there is a suitable USB solution.
The only other possibility that occurs to me is to use an IP based KVM. A KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch box allows multiple computers to be controlled from typically a single keyboard and mouse. However there are versions which allows you to do this over a TCP/IP network i.e. Ethernet. Then again you would be able to do this anywhere on your network. Here is one example - http://www.aten-usa.com/products/productItem.php?model_no=CN8600
Personally I still strongly recommend using Screen Sharing. Its built-in and completely free!

Cannot save files to Windows server 2003 file server from MAC

Hi,
We have few MAC users and others mostly windows based users. Problem now is MAC users cannot save any files to the file server. I had the issues to save in the portable hard drive then i format the HDD to fat 32 and now i can save, But the file server cannot
be done like that.
What i can do to save the files to file server? please advice me
thanks
saththiyan

I cannot attach another NAS as CEO need to save files to all the folders which is there in the file server already,
You can share the folder and map a drive across the network to access the shared folder on the file server. Shared folders formatted NTFS do not affect network access. You would do that by using the SMB. Here's how:

Login prompt on remote shared server-Crystal Report

HI
I am trying to deploy crystal reports 2008 on shared server. Before publishing on the remote server i published it on the localhost while connecting it to remote sql server 2008 database. The report is shown perfactly but when i publish it on shared server it prompt me for login credentials. My hosting provider is arvixe and it support crystal report. In my popup database field is empty and locked use name field show the correct user name and password field is empty. I read somewhere it may be due to version conflict between my version and version on server. Thanks in advance for help
I am using dataset to puch my data to report. Here is my source code
myRpt report = new myRpt();
 crConnectionInfo.ServerName = @"mysharedserver.com";
 crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "mydb";
 crConnectionInfo.UserID = "myuser";
 crConnectionInfo.Password = "mypass";
 System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection myConnection = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection();
 myConnection.ConnectionString = "Data Source=mysharedserver.com;Initial Catalog=mydb;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=myuser;Password=mypass";
 System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand MyCommand = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("dbo.spspMyStoreProc");
 MyCommand.Connection = myConnection;
 MyCommand.Parameters.Add("@PositionID", SqlDbType.Int).Value = (cmbPositions.SelectedValue == "" ? 0 : Convert.ToInt32(cmbPositions.SelectedValue));
 MyCommand.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure;
 System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter MyDA = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter();
 MyDA.SelectCommand = MyCommand;
 myDS _DS = new myDS();
 MyDA.Fill(_DS, "dbo.spspMyStoreProc");
 report.SetDataSource(_DS);
 crDatabase = report.Database;
 crTables = crDatabase.Tables;
 for (int i = 0; i < crTables.Count; i++)
 crTable = crTables;
 crTableLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo;
 crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo;
 crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
 report.SetParameterValue(0, "Param 1");
 report.SetParameterValue(1, "Param 2");
 report.SetParameterValue(2, "Param 3");
 report.SetParameterValue(3, (cmbPositions.SelectedValue == "" ? 0 : Convert.ToInt32(cmbPositions.SelectedValue)));
 CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = report;

If you are using a dataset, why are you using the databse login APIs? E.g.;
crDatabase = report.Database;
 crTables = crDatabase.Tables;
 for (int i = 0; i < crTables.Count; i++)
 crTable = crTables;
 crTableLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo;
 crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo;
 crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
Either use report.SetDataSource(_DS); which will make the report consume the dataset, or use the above code which will make the report connect to the database directly.
Do not use both though.

Installing Collaboration Suite on Remote Linux Server! Need Help! URGENT!

Hi everybody,
I am a beginner having few months of exp as Apps DBA. I was given a task of installing OCS on a remote linux server. How to install from my local windows desktop. Wht r the steps to be followed? I need help Immediately! Is it possible through SSH ?
Thanks in advance,
Manoj.

You need to have:
- Ssh running on the remote server
- An ssh client on your local PC (e.g. PUTTY, it's a freeware), capable to tunnel and forward X traffic
- An X client running on your local PC
Then:
- On the server, configure X to accept connections from your PC:
export DISPLAY=your_ip_address:0
- Then, on the server, you have to enable your PC to use X but I can't remember the command.... will search for it and update the thread
- Configure and activate the local X client on your PC
- Configure PUTTY to forward X traffic. Connect via ssh logging in normally to the remote machine. Just leave the session open (maybe it's a good idea to remove any timeouts parameters). The SSH tunnel is now built, and the X traffic should be OK
- Test the connection: if you type "xclock" in the SSH window, a nice little analogic clock will appear on your PC desktop (if everything is OK).
- If the clock appears.... Well, go on with your remote installation! :-)
Bye,
Roberto

Do you need a web browser and internet server to run LabVIEW remote front panel?

Does anyone know if ones needs an internet server to use the Remote Front Panel application of LabVIEW, or is it also possible to use a LAN/WAN for the same application? if it is possible, how does one set up such a system?

You can do this on any IP based system (which includes LANs).
Basically, you need to be able to ping the server and to have the RFP port allowed in the firewall.
Then you need to enable the option in the application. If this is an executable, you will need to configure this in the Options dialog or copy some lines from the LabVIEW.ini file into your EXE's INI file. You will also need to take the htm file created by the publishing wizard and make sure it points to your VI and that it is located in a place where it can be accessed from outside the server (read the LV help or search the site for more on this).
Then, you just need to enter the URL for that htm file in the browser on the client (e.g. 192.3.42.5/c/rfp.htm) and it should load.
Try to take over the world!
