New Oracle on Linux, Oracle noob seeking for advice

I am working as a consultant for a medical group and they are in the process of buying a ERP solution that requires a Oracle DB, since I am a network/security guy I will ask you guys for advice.
The idea is to install Oracle 10g STD One in a Dell 1950 server ( 3.0Gb xeon dual core, 4Gb RAM and 146 Gb SCSI 15K RAID mirrored setup), since they are starting from zero I think this setup will do with some minor upgrades in the future (this setup is for 50 users).
The idea is use RHEL 5 and get the Unbreakable Support, my questions are:
1. Can I run other services on the server without loosing Oracle support, like SAMBA?
2. Are there any differences between Oracle's and RHEL 5 distros?
3. Will oracle provide updates for packages like SAMBA?
Best Regards,
Willian

Prando,
First, EL5 is fully compatible with RHEL5. The only difference is about oracle logos. Whether you deploy rhel5 or el5 or not, you can get the unbreakable support. SAMBA packages are conatained in el5 and rhel5 dists. So oracle will provide updates for samba package and you will not loose oracle supprot.

Seeking for advice on enhancing BW reporting speed

Hi all,
I am currently supporting a BW 3.0 system, but not so familiar with BW. BW reporting is getting slower these months. I would like to seek for some advices on enhancing BW reporting speed. Could anyone give me some advices?
Many thanks!
Best regards,
Marcus

Hi
Use Aggregates, Compression / partitioning of the tables at Bi side.
Do not Use much Nav. Attributes, Virtual Key figs at Query
Use Statistics Queries to know where the query is consuming much runtime for better analysis.

Anyone gentoo linux ? I seek for a good use flags set

I install funtoo (gentoo with the stage file from here) stage 1 on my box
The system is my notebook - a thinkpad core duo
Im teenager in the sense of things I need from it - to be fast and lightweight (at very least as fast as arch default minimalistic install), compatible with everything, capable of p2ping wireless when I skateboard with it, have all needed stuff inside but not be bloated (boot / response time), and be as cool as linux can be
I prefer KDE 3.5 desktop. No gnome. Some *boxes but i dont need full functionality in them.
I dont accept any proprietary stuff on the computer. I may accept a binary firmware file to be uploaded to a device (with a ) but strict 'no' to blobs etc
Things that are patented but implemented entirely in open source (like linux mp3 support) are considered free (there are no sw patents where I live)
Plz paste them here from make.conf
CFLAGS etc will be accepted and thanked too

Also, what about computer games? Those are proprietary, usually for good reason
I use open source cause i like it. To me heaving a 'clean' computer is kinda proof of concept that I can live my way and not depend on stuff I dont like
Some closed software I simply dont trust. This includes skype and some wireless drivers
If a friend of mine wants to talk with me via skipe I tell him to install any SIP client from the list in wikipedia
I have an intel ipw3945 wireless card in the laptop. I just did not install it. Now when there is at last a driver without blobs (except an image that is blindly uploaded into the card) I accept this
I really dont play any computer games. I didnt play them (except some old dos games) when I used windows either

Seek for advice on 845Gmax+333DDR

Hi, I have a 845G Max, 333Mhz DDR 512MB memory, could anyone give me advice on the memory settings in the BIOS, such as the CAS things. Thanks a lot!
Jerry

hi
as far as cas goes it is safest to leave it on auto
the lower it is the faster your ram works
how ever set it to low and your ram may refuse to work
if you dont know how to clear your cosmos
leave it aone
take a look in the nforce forum for all the posts re bios
2.5 were people cannot get their boards to boot at all
and are awaiting msi sending them new bios chips
this was down to the bios setting ram to cas 2
and caused a lot of grief

[SOLVED] Seeking for advice at aur package managment.

Hello again.
I've been using arch for a little time but this far I like it more eveyday.
I've installed virtualbox PUEL from the AUR with makepkg and pacman -U. It's working fine.
But I want to install more software from the AUR. Actually, maybe I'll be installing lots of software from the AUR. My question is, since these software is installed "manualy", is there an easy way of keeping it up to date?
I've tried yaourt but I really don't like it very much. (Im not using sudo [maybe later] and it asked my root password 3 or 4 times and finally wasn't able to install anything; pacman works fine. Yaourt has no good documentation) I even created an AUR account to see if there was some way of getting notifications of updated packages to upgrade them manually. But this far, I haven't found any satistactory solution.
Edit: Also, I've seen that at least for virtualbox and yaourt, there are repos that can be added to pacman. Can I add a repo for each piece of software chosen from the AUR? Are there repos only for some "very used" software?
Thanks for your advice.

Actually, I think that with yaourt you could do the best update for all AUR-installed packages. yaourt -Syyu --aur --devel for example.

Try aurbuild as well

Except for [community] of course
I can think of two unofficial repos:
repo.archlinux.fr
[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686
or
[archlinuxfr]

and adslgr32/64
amd64
[adslgr64]

Seeking for advice over software development start-up question

Hi Admin ,
My friend who is an internet marketer at warrior forum told me about Adobe AIR. He said that programs developed on Adobe Air could not be decompiled. I am a forex software developer that created both a trailing stop ea and forex charting software on the Metatrader 4 open source trading platform. My concern is that the software which i developed could be decompiled.
I have a programming team and they have little or few experience with Adobe Air. I was thinking that before i ask them to research and start developing our software on Adobe AIR platform, could you help us but answering some important questions regarding AIR?
Is it true that AIR applications cannot be decompiled?
Forex software in .ex4 format and .dll files be transferred over to AIR format?
Could there be a communication between AIR and Metatrader 4 trading platform ?
For more info, visit these url :
Metatrader 4 : http://www.metatrader4.com/
Forex Applications which i Developed on Metatrader 4
1: http://www.forexgeometry.com/
2. http://www.forextrailer.com/
Regards,
Warren Seah

There is no software that cannot be decompiled and/or reverse engineered. ActionScript is actually one of the easier languages to decompile. There are obfuscators and other protection schemes, but I can't attest to how well they work.
You can write an ActionScript wrapper for dll libraries (in many cases). I don't know what .e4x format is.
An AIR app can communicate with another application or server in a variety of ways. The most common include HTTP and sockets.

Oracle Coherence 3.7.1, It's always creating a new cluster in linux m/c.

Hi ,
I am facing an issue with Oracle Coherence 3.7.1 in linux m/c , where it’s always creating a new cluster, even if I start a new member provided with same cluster name as argument. -Dtangosol.coherence.cluster=name
It’s not joining the existing cluster , it’s always creating a new cluster with same name in Linux m/c.
But when I tried the same thing in windows m/c , it working fine , even If I start N number cache server’s it joining the same cluster as one more member.
Please someone help me, why it’s always creating a new cluster in linux m/c with same name ? why new VM’s are not joining the existing cluster? , Is there anything extra setup I need to do for Linux m/c.
Thanks in Advance.

hi,
I have installed VM WARE on my laptop now want to download linux ISO and Oracle ISO. Red Hat, Centos and Oracle Enterprise Linux are almost identical. The major differences are:
- Red Hat and Oracle Enterprise Linux are officially supported by Oracle to be used under Oracle products;
- CentOS is NOT officially supported
- the newer Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) includes an 'oracle-validate' rpm to reduce configuration guessing
Each Distro has it's purpose. I use SUSE and OpenSUSE for my office. And for general servers I use RedHat (when I need commercial support) and CentOS. I fully support CentOS and the CentOS community effort.
However, for the past year I have ONLY used Oracle Enteprise Linux under Oracle product. It is free, it is officially supported, if I need commercial support I can get it, and it has the Oracle Validated RPM to minimize my config effort. http://edelivery.oracle.com
So, as compared to the other respondent - I encourage using OEL and NOT CentOS.

Oracle 8 client for Linux

I really need to find the Oracle 8 client for Linux. It isn't available anywhere on Oracle's site. Is there an alternate way to get it? I need a modern PHP to be able to connect with an Oracle 7 database. It is not currently an option to upgrade the Oracle database, as much as I would love to do so.

8.0.4 for linux does not exists nor you need it to connect to a 8 database.
Just install the 9i client (available at OTN) and recompile your cgi's.

Oracle 9i Database for Linux

Hello,
I need to be able to test some software changes against an Oracle 9i database running under Linux as this is an environment used by one of my customers.
I have tried downloading the zip files found at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oracle9i/htdocs/linuxsoft.html but if I try to open or download any of these files I receive an Error 404 Page Cannot Be Loaded.
This happens when using IE6 or when using GetRight.
Are the links to these files still valid? If not, where can I download Oracle 9i Database for Linux?

I don't find any problems with these files and they are still available.

Oracle JDBC Driver for Linux

I'm looking for a place to download an Oracle JDBC driver for Linux. I have installed Oracle 8.1.5 for Linux, but don't find the driver either in the installation, nor on the CD. Can anyone point me to someplace I might be able to find it?
Also, generic help in setting this up to work, JDBC API calls would also be of great help.
Thanks.

1) You need classes111.zip usually located at

2) Add classes111.zip to CLASSPATH and export
3) If you use thin driver your code should look like:
Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
// Connect to the database
// You must put a database name after the @ sign in the

// You can use either the fully specified SQL*net syntax or
