Network/Deployment Question

I have just completed the first installation of my application and have moved it to the client's computer for deployment. This computer runs Windows XP Pro and is on a local area network. While the application runs fine on the local machine, I have been unable to connect to it from other computers on the network using the URL http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=101:1. This URL connects properly from the local machine, but not from other machines on the local network. What do I need to do to get other machines to be able to see the application?
Thanks for your help.

Yes, enable remote access! And...
To know what is the URL you must use do the follow:
In the server machine(that one running the Oracle XE and your application):
In Windows, go to Start>Run
Open:
cmd.exe
Type in DOS Prompt:
ipconfig.exe
You will see something like:
Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : fbi.gov.br
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.101.201.30
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.101.200.21
You need to use your IP Address in URL.
In my case I use:
http://10.101.201.30:8080/apex/f?p=101:1
Good luck,
Felipe
ps: Using this IP you will be able to access the application only using computers that are in the same local network.

Help: network security question

I just bought a PowerBook G4 running OSX 10.4.5 and was wondering about network security. What are some good anti-virus protection programs? I was searching the Apple store and found Net Barrier X4 and Virus Barrier X4 by INTEGO. What is the difference between the two? Are there other programs out there that are better? I will be the only person using this computer and it's for personal use, not business. Does anybody have any recommendations?
powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

What you mention anti virus software programs. In your topic it reads "network security question"
There is a difference between the two. Network security would be protecting a local LAN or WAN home network used for gaining access to the net. If this is what you want to do then you should have your network WEP or WPA password protected and enable OS X's personal Firewall by going to System Preferences->Sharing->Firewall->Start Firewall. Some good tips to remember are:
* Never leave your network unlocked.
*Keep your network password complex (12 digits and letters).
*Don't hesitate to tell your ISP if someone is "using" your Network.
*If you see any unknown files don't open them!
Now if your were talking about a Software virus that affects your computer and causes it to malfunction/crash/break Then you don't have very many worries as there are no "Real" viruses for the Mac right now other then two worms, one which is spread via iChat and the other Bluetooth, both causing you to open them and give your Admin password to run them
In other words moral of the story is don't open unknown files/programs and don't give your Mac your password unless you know what it's for and why it's asking.
Net barrier acts as a firewall with more options all though I have found it to cause trouble with my network and have stopped using it.
Virus Barrier, attempts to keep viruses from affecting your OS by scanning for them and warning you if it finds one and delete them. Once a again two different types of software.

[JS][CS3] Script deployment question

Hi everyone,
I am currently writing scripts in a corporate environment (~30 users), and I'm contemplating the easiest and most efficient way of deploying the scripts. We have a couple of scripts already with the users that are located locally on their machines. As time goes on we'll be writing more and more scripts and updating the existing ones as necessary.
My current inclination is to stop saving the files locally on the individual machines and instead put a shortcut to a shared server folder in the scripts folder instead. In my testing it seems to work fine without any significant delay, and it automatically populates all of the files in linked folder. I basically want to be able to make sure that users are always launching the most up-to-date code and that any future scripts can be easily deployed without me walking around to everyone's desk (or worse, e-mailing instructions and hoping for the best).
Are there any downsides/performance issues to this approach? It's a strictly desktop environment, so I don't have to worry about laptop users who are not connected to the network. Is there an alternate way that would be smoother?
Thanks!

We've tried it both ways. On our 12 InCopy machines (OSX), we have a symbolic link from /Applications/Adobe InCopy CS5/Scripts/Scripts Panel/ to a shared folder. This works great as long as our file server doesn't go down, and all sorts of other things would break horribly. And the User scripts folder is still available for any machine-specific customizations.
For our 4 InDesign machines, we decided that was a little too much risk. So instead we have a script, copyScripts.jsx, that just copies scripts from the file server to the Application scripts folder. So everytime there is a change, we go around to those 4 machines and run copyScripts. This works OK.
It's a little bit of a pain but it also insulates us a bit from bugs, and it means that whoever is using InDesign can decide to not update the scripts if they are in the middle of something critical. They can choose to defer taking the script updates.
I think if we had to do it over, we probably wouldn't bother with the copyScripts mechanism. The centralized shared folder works pretty well. But it's not so annoying that we've gotten rid of it. And for 4 machines, it's not a huge burden.
Also, there are some questions of development. If it's convenient to do development in the ESTK, having the shared folder means you cannot just rightclick in the Scripts panel and choose Edit Script. Or if you do, then any changes you save as you are developing the script are instantly available to everyone, potentially breaking their work if there are problems, or if there is debugging output ,etc., etc. So you need to make sure you do a development in a different place. Just something to keep in mind.

WLC 5508 and LightWeight APs Deployment question

Hi There,
Can you please wit the following question in regards to the deployment of a new WLC and new LAPs,
I have configured and connected a 5508 WLC and 3500 series LAP.
LAG is enabled in the WLC and successfully connected to the neighboring switch (using etherchannel) and to the network.
The port-channel port is set to trunk mode obviously and certain vlan ids are currently allowed (3-5)
The management interface has this IP address 192.168.5.250/24
I created a WLAN with WLAN ID 3, Interface set to Management and say SSID test1
I have connected a new LAP to the network, which switchport interface is set to access mode and assigned with vlan id 3. The LAP is able to join the WLC successfully with an IP address, such as, 192.168.3.100 (assigned via DHCP).
When I try connecting a mobile client to the wireless LAN, it can successfully detect and connect to the WLAN, created in the WLC (test1) however it gets an IP address by DHCP, in the 192.168.5.0/24 network, which is the IP range of the management interface's IP address.
What can I do to get the clients connecting on network 192.168.3.0/24? I thought this would be the case since I allocated the WLAN Id of 3 in the WLAN test1 configuration and since the LAP switchport is set to access mode with vlan ID 3.
Cheers,
egua5261

Hi,
The WLAN ID has no effect with the VLAN ID. WLAN ID is just an identifier for the WLAN.
you said "Interface set to Management and say SSID test1" and here is your issue.
You set the interface of the WLAN to the management. So, the WLAN will be mapped to the VLAN to which the management interface is mapped to.
What you need to do is to create a dynamic interface with ip range in 192.168.3.0/24 and provide VLAN ID for that interface and assign your WLAN to this new interface. This way your clients will get an IP from this specified range.

10.7 client .dmg creation for deployment questions.

Please forgive me if this question is in the wrong forum.
I've been doing searches online and in the 10.7 Peachpit books (client and server) and I can't seem to find the info I am looking for.
I am trying to create a 10.7 .dmg to use on new Macs my company is going to deploy. We are not using 10.7 Server at the moment, we
are using 10.6.8 Server. This will not be an image we are going to deploy over the network either. I know this may not be "best practices"
but at the moment, this is the way we are going to (re)image new Macs.
Basically, I want to create a 10.7 .dmg that does NOT contain the recovery partition. I can't seem to find a way to do this. If I am correct,
even a "clean" install, when booted from a USB 10.7 recovery drive, will create the recovery partition, right?
I am running 10.7 client and i have the 10.7.3 Server Admin tools.
I apologize in advance if I am missing something glaringly obvious.
Also, any tips on best practices for creating 10.7 client .dmgs for deployment that's any different than creating 10.6 images?
thanks in advance.

Using information from this site and my own scripting experience I present to you a more secure way to do it which supports munki and other deployment tools without having the password to the ODM or client in clear text on the client or on packages easeliy accessable on a http server:
On server:
ssh-keygen
Save the output of ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to your clip board
Then create a launchd or something so that this runs at startup
nc -kl 1337 | xargs -n 1 -I host ssh -q -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no root@host /usr/local/bin/setupLDAP diradminpassword localadminpassword > /dev/null 2>&1
On client:
Create script (to use in a package as postinstall or something):
#!/bin/bash
# Turns on ssh
systemsetup -f -setremotelogin On
# Sets up passwordless login to root account from server
echo "ssh-rsa FROM_YOUR_CLIPBOARD_A_VERYLONGOUTPUTOFCHARACTERS [email protected]" >> /var/root/.ssh/authorized_keys
# installs setupLDAP
mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
cat > /usr/local/bin/setupLDAP <<'EOF'
#!/bin/sh
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
export PATH
computerid=`scutil --get ComputerName`; yes | dsconfigldap -vfs -a 'server.domain.no' -n 'server' -c $computerid -u 'diradmin' -p $1 -l 'l' -q $2
EOF
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/setupLDAP
End note
That was the code, now you just add the skeleton And to clearify what this does, first we let the server connect to the client as root even though root access is "disabled" (he has no password and therefore you can't log in as root as default). Then we create a small script to setup OD binding (/usr/local/bin/setupLDAP) but this script doesn't contain the passwords. Then the client send a request to the small socket server on the server with it's hostname, then the server connects to that hostname and executes /usr/local/bin/setupLDAP with the needed passwords.

Wireless authentication network design questions... best practices... etc...

Working on a wireless deployment for a client... wanted to get updated on what the latest best practices are for enterprise wireless.
Right now, I've got the corporate SSID integeatred with AD authentication on the back end via RADIUS.
Would like to implement certificates in addition to the user based authentcation so we have some level of dual factor authentcation.
If a machine is lost, I don't want a certificate to allow an unauthorized user access to a wireless network. I also don't want poorly managed AD credentials (written on a sticky note, for example) opening up the network to an unathorized user either... is it possible to do an AND condition, so that both are required to get access to a wireless network?

There really isn't a true two factor authentication you can just do with radius unless its ISE and your doing EAP Chaining. One way that is a workaround and works with ACS or ISE is to use "Was machine authenticated". This again only works for Domain Computers. How Microsoft works:) is you have a setting for user or computer... this does not mean user AND computer. So when a windows machine boots up, it will sen its system name first and then the user credentials. System name or machine authentication only happens once and that is during the boot up. User happens every time there is a full authentication that has to happen.
Check out these threads and it explains it pretty well.

Nostage, stage, external_stage; deployment question ?

Hi, I have 2 questions:

option then, will my deployment succeeds IF i have also choosen the radio button

stage asks the admin server to do it for you.

if the above holds true and if i select any of the above 2 options in the case
where i have 2 harware boxes .....and iam deploying an application to 2 managed
servers where there is no admin server running,,, then would deployment succeeds
also, I have 2 managed servers on another harware box, where there is an admin
up and running.
so in the case where there are only managed servers and iam selecting no_stage=true;
would the deplyoment succeds ?
When you deploy an application, you are contacting the admin server
regardless of stage/nostage etc. So the admin server has to be up to do
a deployment.
However, the admin server does not have to be running on the same
machine as the managed servers.

what is the co-relation between these two places ?The initial deployment of an application takes you through an assistant
in the console that tries to use more descriptive terms than
stage/nostage etc. However, if you look at the MBeans directly or use
the command-line weblogic.Deployer than stage etc is what you'll see.
It may show up elsewhere in the console as well.

nostage says the application path is valid on all servers. This makes
sense if you have a networked or shared filesystem. Or, if all of
your
machines are identical, and you want to do the distribution yourself.
stage asks WLS to distribute the files from the admin server to the
managed servers.
external_stage is a variant of stage that's rarely used. basicallythe
admin server copies the files to the managed server, but the path on
each managed server might be different. I believe it's just relative
to
the server's staging directory.

Cisco ESA Deployment Question

Hello,
I have a question about the ESA deployment, In case I have 1 ESA deployed in my network with MX record and the public IP is natted to the ESA IP located on the DMZ.
If the ESA goes down for any reason like power failure, still I can recieve and send email or not? I mean in this case, can the device work in fail-open mode to relay the emals but without applying the policy?
Or in this case, the mail system will be completly down, and I need to add 2nd MX record (High avaailbility) to ensure that the email system is UP?
Thanks.
Ahmad.

This is very logical for me.
I had a discussion with Cisco SE and he insists that ESA acts as a proxy not as email server, so the mail server would still deliver email but without any ESA policies applied to it.
Here, if you point the exchange server to the ESA and the ESA is down, then the recieving and sending will be down, and only the internal emails will be working.
Thanks.
Ahmad.

"Internet" MP & DP Package Deployment Questions

Good Morning:
First of all, thanks for all your help over the years - lurking social.technet has provided many a relief for headaches. Now onto my hopefully simple question(s):
I recently set up SCCM 2012 SP1 in our work environment. I have 1 Site with two servers (let's call them MP & IMP). IMP is set to internet only, and MP to internet & intranet serving our AD-site boundary groups (a couple through forest trusts). PKI
shows as working on clients/server as far as I can tell (my first PKI implementation). The IMP has a live/valid DNS entry in public DNS with port 443 opened to it through our building firewall and is an MP, DP, EP, EPP, FSP. The site, MP, and IMP are healthy
and after turning off PULL DP, the IMP is receiving all packages/applications from the primary DP happily. Clients are being pushed with the DNS name of the IMP when they log onto our network from the office (and are receiving it successfully). Updates
for SCEP and Office/Windows are being delivered timely to clients on the intranet, the ADR's are running well and pretty much allow me to not mess with them except to rebuild every 6 months (which will happen in July). My question is probably something simple,
so pardon my ignorance... but it seems that clients are phoning home from the IMP just fine (seeing all the 192.x.x.x addresses when laptops call in from home) but they're not getting the deployment packages (SCEP updates is my only reference point at the
moments) pushed to them while on the internet, even though they reside on IMP's DP. Clients should be getting SCEP updates every morning starting after 6AM (just 1 package a day for now) but the clients at home talking to the IMP are just not receiving the
push it seems? They check in with policy requests etc... I'm not sure if this could be a simple Windows Firewall issue on the clients I can remediate with GP, is there an extra port(s) that need opened to the IMP other than 443 through the building firewall...
I'm not tearing out my hair by any means, but I am a bit miffed. I'm happy to provide any logs and run any tests desired. I have ample loaner laptops to try multiple configurations on. Any help would be greatly appreciated in getting the last piece our SCCM
2012 SP1 puzzle in place so we can label it working at 100% and move onto learning more of its nuances and advanced capabilities. Thanks so much for any help or guidance.

Since no one has answer this post, I recommend opening a support case with CSS as they can work with you to solve this problem.

NAM Deployment Question

Hi,
I am primarily interested in network performance, behaviour analysis and capacity planning. I am in the process of demo'ing a number of different netflow collector tools such as Flukes netflow collector, Plixers Scrutiniser etc.
I have heard of the NAM / NAM 2 before but thought this would be priced too high. I have done some more reading on the product and can see benefits in its ability to also analyse traffic in real time from by using SPAN.
My question is, how many ports can you aggregate into the SPAN session on the NAM 2 6500 card ? My idea is to deploy two NAM modules in our two Core 6500 switches. One "port" on each NAM will be used to collect netflow information from the rest of the network backbone (including remote branch devices), the other "port" will be used as a destination for multiple SPAN source ports, e.g. multiple Gigabit ethernet backbone links that interconects the entire backbone.
Can the NAM take this load on the SPAN? I have read that the NAM 2 benefits from supporting the 2 backbone fabric ports, does this therefore mean that it fully supports the 40Gbps connection into the switching fabric backbplane if you have SUP720 deployed ?
Thanks in advance.

I'd suggest you post this in the integration newsgroup.

Adobe reader deployment question

I've read the document on deploying adobe reader via gpo and have one particular question. Why do we have to do an administrative installation of adobe on the network? Isn't the msi file plus the other extracted files from the exe enough to deploy adobe? I don't see the reason behind an administrative installation. I've already customized it with the wizard; the mst file is in the same folder.

Thanks for the reply, it really helped get me to the right place and I was successful in opening the Adobe Reader Installer. The key words for me were "your computer's Administrator password". I had been trying to use my Adobe password. Thanks a lot!!

Hyper-V Multi Node deployment question

Hi Folks
we are working on a HyperV cluster ( 5 nodes + SaS Storage) based on 2012 R2 .
I have a lot of experience with VMware but not much with Hyper-V .
in a nutshell ; I know that we need to deploy MS Cluster and HyperV roles . here is a couple of questions ; they are generic :
1- I know it's possible to start the cluster and then install VMM later ; however I prefer to avoid any re-configuration
, also in one tech-net article I saw a note saying that If I want to use VMM later ; I should configure all network requirements
through VMM ... so I am a bit confused ; do we need VMM to be there before forming the cluster and set up all networks or
it's better to have VMM in-place and do configuration through that ?
2- I saw in TechNet where you can even send cluster traffic through virtual switch .. this doesn't make sense to me as I am under impression that fail-over cluster is a separate service and it's outside hyper-v ; so how come it's using a virtual switch for
heart-beat ?
here is the article :
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn550728.aspx

Hi Ali,
After you enabled hyper-v and configured external (checked "allow management operation system...")/internal virtual switch , the management OS will get a virtual NIC connect to the virtual switch .
Maybe the following article will help you out :

11.1.2 Deployment question!

We are using ADF 11.1.1.4 with Webcenter and SOA components but not extensively. We would like to upgrade to 11.1.2 and got little confused after reading note given below.
"Important Note - This version of JDeveloper doesn't include the SOA and WebCenter pieces - to use these components you'll need to download Oracle JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0"
My question is can the code developed using 11.1.2 Jdeveloper be deployed on 11.1.1.4 WLS? If that's the case we are thinking to develop SOA and Webcenter application using 11.1.1.4 and ADF using 11.1.2 and both deployed on 1.1.1.4 WLS!!!!
Is there any other option for installation like this!!!

code developed in 11.1.2 will be deployed 10 10.3.5 with sherman patch and adf runtime..
chk this
http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/06/29/follow-up-upgrading-wls-10-3-5-with-adf-runtime-11-1-2-0-0-sherman-patch/

I am very new with crystal reports.
I am very new with crystal reports.
I have used them before with visual studio 2005, and deployed the applications successfully. I have a client who wants some reports from their ms sql database.
I have bought Crystal reports XI developer and instead of incorporating reports in a .net application, can I just develop the reports using Crystal Reports then give them the reports with a Runtime Library. So as they don't need a Crystal licence on every PC. The users would just call up the reports they want from a "reports" folder on the server. Put in some paramters then presto the report appears.
The customer has a network with SQL database on server, they could view reports via a web page or other software, but what do i need to load on their server to allow them to run the reports.
The idea is either i develop the reports or perhaps they develop some, stor the reports in a folder on the server so as every one is able to acces them
Thanks

WRT 1900AC and Windows 7 network naming question(s)

Background: I had a Linksys E3000 up and running for about 5 years in a stable network environment. The E3000 died, and I put in a new WRT 1900AC to replace it. In the process of getting things set up correctly the main "network name" in my network displays shows up as a name assigned to a Wireless portion of my network. The "Wired" portion shows up in diagrams, and to windows, as well as both of the main wirless bands but not as the central node between either of the wired Win7 computers and the internet I would like to get the Windows 7 machines on my network to display the wired network name in Windows 7 as the primary network, and NOT one of the wireless ones. Almost everything I want to be able to do is working just fine except for the network map display in Windows 7 where I have been trying to configure a "home group" that will not yield to my efforts.,
I use "suffix" notation in the naming, so my router on ethernet is .<ame>..NET, the wireless lower band is <name>...W24 upper band is <name>...W5. I have not figured out how to get the artifacts of the "setup sequence of events" out of the Windows 7 displays in "network neighborhood" so I have a more rational picture that has Ethernet at the core and the wireless bands as additional subsidiary networks not necessarily associated with all my devices. I know this is not technicallly a Linksys issue, but... Can I simply delete alll the neworking information in Windows 7, and reboot, and then force the computer to set up a network based on the correct network node labels. provided by the router? I'm a bit worried that I might have to "reset" everything which would be a huge **bleep** since almost all of what I want to do is working just fine, I'm just not quite clear some times whether the process of connecting from one computer to another, or to a NAS attached to the router is going through the wired network or the wireless one where performance can be a big issue. My Ethernet is "certified" at 1gbps which is a lot faster than the wireless networking. Sometimes it seems that accessing the NAS attached to the router is being done "through a tiny straw, not the fast pipe in the wiered world. I used to do a lot of NETBIOS networking in Windows "back in the day" and my network naming conventions have probably not kept up with the times, but I still have two Windows XP computers wired into my household network, and when "debugging" things I think of the Ethernet as central and the wirless portions as additional networks, not the other way around. Unfortunately Windows 7 seemed to grab the wireless names first, probably because the machines in question both have wireless and wired connectivity built in and available in their hardware and the one that was set up and working with the old router when the new one got plugged in was used to do the initialization initially using the default sequence built into the router software. I was able to go back and rename everything to get rid of the default names, but my Android based network monitor only works within range of the router and not when the phone is connected to the internet outside of the house. I've never been able to get the phone support folks to help me clear that issue up either. .. When I added the second computer, the same thing happened out of the box, Windows took the name of the first wireless network it found and put it into the network neighborhood as the device in the path between the new computer and the internet, I can "see" the host name of the router correctly from everywhere, and map to the 1TB disk I have hung on it from all of my computers, but the Internet connection is actually an ethernet drop from a cable modem to an ethernet port on the router, not to either of the wireless bands that show up.

@zundapman Hi! What's the current firmware of your router? Make sure that your firmware is up to date with the latest version. Also, are you referring to the Windows explorer's map or the User Interface map of the router or the Network and sharing map of your computer?
