NetInstall and host name

Can someone explain why, when I image from our NetBoot server, the host name of the client (target machine) is changed to "knotset"? We used to use a bootable DVD to install our custom corporate image and never had this problem. However, we've recently evolved to the point of using NetInstall to deploy our images. Everything in NetBoot has been working great, but this knotset thing is bugging me... The only way I know to change it is in /etc/hostconfig, but I'd prefer to avoid manually changing this value.

Hey Charles,
I see you are having an issue with getting your Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to connect to your wireless network. The first thing I would advise is to make sure to power cycle the entire network setup. This will make sure the network is fresh and DHCP is renewed.
Follow these steps to reset your HP printer, your wireless router, and your computer.
Press the Power button on the HP printer to turn it off.
Disconnect the power cord from the rear of the HP printer.
Disconnect the power cord from the wireless router.
Turn off the computer.
Wait 30 seconds.
Reconnect the power cord to the wireless router.
Wait 30 seconds, or until the router is fully on and ready.
Turn the computer back on.
Wait for the computer to reload.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the HP printer.
Turn the printer back on.
Once everything is powered back up, then try going back to the Wireless Setup Wizard through the front panel of the printer. Are you trying to connect through WPS (Wifi protected setup) or through selecting the network ID (SSID) and typing in the password?
What happens when you try to connect? Do you get any errors?
Once the printer is connected to the network what is the IP of the printer? Does this fit in the domain of your home network?

I believe that starting with 9.2, you have to specify different passwords when you install (can't be the default).

Question about Domain and Host name fields.

Hello! Just a quick question, I currently have the Mail Server up and running although I'm a little unsure about what exactly needs to be entered into the users email application.
I've tested POP and IMAP using the information that I entered into the "Domain Name" field, and into the "Host name" field, and everything worked great.
Example:
Incoming Mail Server: mail.example.com
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.example.com
Although while setting up another site and including the normal mail setup via DNS I've also noticed that I can send and receive email by using other sites that belong to me, as long as they are pointing towards our server.
Example:
Incoming Mail Server: mail.mynewsite.com
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.mynewsite.com
So, I guess my question is whether its bad to use other websites in the incoming and outgoing mail server fields, or should I stick to the incoming and outgoing sites that I have listed in the Mail Server's 'Domain Name' and 'Host Name' fields?
I hope that made sense, thanks again for your help.

PowerMac G5, Xserve G5, and PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Does it matter if our users type mail.example.com
into the incoming mail server, or are they allowed to
use their own domain name "mail.mydomain.com" as long
as the DNS is setup correctly?
There is no intrinsic 'meaning' to hostnames entered into the mail client. These are merely converted to IP addresses, using available dns, and then the mail client communicates with the IP address, using whatever port number is applicable for the service required (e.g., port 25 for smtp, port 110 for pop). So you could use the hostname woohooo.mydomain.com for the smtp or pop server, as long as it resolves to the correct IP.
This enables laptop users to have the one smtp/pop hostname, with lan dns resolving it to the local private IP and ext dns resolving same hostname to wan IP.
There is also no need to have two separate hostnames for pop and smtp. These are typically used by ISPs because they have separate servers doing each job - one doing pop, one doing smtp. If one server does both (and there is no likelihood of splitting the services later) then just the one hostname for pop and smtp is fine.

UNABLE TO RETRIEVE THE CLIENT IP ADDRESS AND HOST NAME OF A PORTAL USER

I'm trying to retrive the client IP address and host name of a portal user
trying to access a portal page using APIs:
PortletRenderRequest portletRequest =
(PortletRenderRequest)request.getAttribute(HttpCommonConstants.PORTLET_RENDER_REQUEST);
HttpServletRequest servletRequest =
(HttpServletRequest)portletRequest.getAttribute(HttpCommonConstants.SERVLET_REQUEST);
String l_szClientIPAddress = servletRequest.getRemoteAddr();
String l_szClientHost = servletRequest.getRemoteHost();
but i found that for all portal users on different machines IP addresses, the
returned IP is the same for all which is Portal middle tier IP address.
So how can retrive the IP addess of a portal user trying to access a portal
page ?

Brijesh,
Do you mean how to see hostname/ip address of client requests processed by the server? If yes, depending on what's your front ending component - Web Cache or OHS, you can configure the access log format to have this information recorded in either of these component's access log file.
For Web Cache access log file, refer this:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/caching.1012/b14046/diagnostics.htm#sthref2090
For OHS access log file, refer this:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/web.1012/b14007/servlog.htm#sthref439
By default, both Web Cache and OHS are configured to use Common Log Format (CLF) that does record hostname/ip address so if you haven't made any changes to log format, this info is already there for you. Look for $ORACLE_HOME/webcache/logs/access_log file for Web Cache and $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/logs/access_log file for OHS.
Thanks

Change IP and Host name of the server

Hi,
Db :11.2.0.3

OS team are going change IP address and host name of the server which has ASM and DB.
What are the things we need to follow for this?
Thanks & Regards,
VN

OS team are going change IP address and host name of the server which has ASM and DB.
What are the things we need to follow for this?1. TNSNAMES.ORA files everywhere
2. LISTENER.ORA on server
If there are thin JDBC clients, change IP/hostname in their connection URLs.

Getting the context and host name during initialization

I am trying to find a way to get the Context path and the host name during the ContextInitialized event, but without any luck. I think it is very strange that you can not even find the context path or the host name of the application you are running yourself.
Does anybody have an idea?

What I mean are the configuration elements which are put in the server.xml
The BIG problem with the getServletContextName is that this returns the name which is put in the web.xml. But I have a web application which is generic and only some config parameters should be altered. Thats why I need to now in which context I am.
I think the deployment of web applications is wrong by design. I have to specify deployment information inside the application package which in fact should be presented to the servlet container separately. It's like installing new applications on a computer. It should be possible to create 1 installation file (read a web archive) and then specify the location where you want to install it while deploying it (read specify the host name, context location etc.) Now these two are mixed together which I think is wrong.
Besides the above problem, I think it is also not correct to let users specify properties while configuring a context (either in the server.xml or the web.xml) and then not having an equivelant in the object model (Read the ServletContext object).

change IP Address Public + VIP + Interconnect

If you'd like to change HOSTNAME... Metalink (NOTE:220970.1)
Can I change the public hostname in my Oracle Database 10g Cluster using Oracle Clusterware?
Hostname changes are not supported in Oracle Clusterware (CRS), unless you want to perform a deletenode followed by a new addnode operation.
The hostname is used to store among other things the flag files and Oracle Clusterware stack will not start if hostname is changed.
Changing the Private Interconnect
o Change of the IP Address: change the IP address in the hosts file and/or DNS and make sure that ASM and the database also use the same interconnect
o Change of the private node name used by Oracle Clusterware: requires a reinstall of Oracle Clusterware
So, Public or Private hostnames can only be changed by removing/adding nodes, or reinstalling Oracle Clusterware. VIP Hostnames can be changed
But you can read this idea (reinstall CRS)

Changing domain name and host name?????????//

Hai,
how to chane the domain name and hostname for LINUX ES 4.0 server.
is any impact On EBS 11.5.10.2 . if i change??

This is the command that I run at command prompt:
perl D:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\10.2.0\appsutil\bin\adgentns.pl appspass=secret \contextfile=conf_VIS.txt -removeserver
It returns:
'perl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Did you source the env file first?I apologize, what does this mean? I am running EBS12 on a WINXP environment, but this was the closest forum post I could find related to the topic.
From Article:
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:1947016216372695354::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,338003.1,1,1,0,helvetica
If you already changed the information of your existing AutoConfig Context file and
have not done the above step, then you can manually update the Net Services
Topology Model using the following syntax :
Locate the System Name :
The System name is the database name
Verify with sql query :
select DB_NAME from FND_DATABASES;I logged into the vision DB (VIS) as the system user id, via SQLPLUS, ran the query and it returned a table or view "FND_DATABASES" does not exists.
I changed the computer name, and changed the domain name (primary dns suffix).
I was successful using the Context Editor to edit both the DB and App context files, and ran AutoConfig for both the DB and Application (exists on the same machine).
I hope this provides more clarity....
Thanks

Hello Friends !!
I have write the following code to get the ip adress and host name of the client machine ..
it works fine for windows xp and 2000 but in vista it gives this type of out put.
host name = 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
ip addresss = 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
what i have to make changes in my code to get the proper ip address and hostname for vista...
My code is listed below....

// Setting Host Name...
request.setAttribute("reportHostIP", request.getRemoteAddr());
// Setting Host IP Address...
try
     remoteAddress = InetAddress.getByName(request.getRemoteAddr());
     //This will give you the full qualified domain name of the client
request.setAttribute("reportHostName", remoteAddress.getCanonicalHostName());
catch(Exception e)

Getting host name and IP address

I have develop different types of forms which resides on server and clients are acessing it.Now from my end i want to track that which user is accessing my forms on the server i.e i want to know the client IP address and host name.When the user execute some query on the database then i will get it easily using sys_context function but if it perform some functions within the form and i catch the host name then it returns the server host name where the actual forms resides not the client host name and i want to know the client host name and IP address who is running the forms.Plz let me know the way so i can do that easily .
thanks

How do I "scan" my LAN and find the host name of the server computer?

I need to scan my LAN to find out the IP and host name of the computer in which is waiting for client acceptance because the server side of my program is not always on the same computer. Therefore, the IP and host name of my server is not final and can be placed on any computer on my network with over 50 connected computers. How might I check to see which computer is waiting for a client?
EDIT: I need the host name only, disregard IP
Thanks!
