Novell Client for Linux causes Excel/Crossover to lock on file open

When using Microsoft Office with Crossover, if I access a mounted NetWare
drive using Novell Client for Linux it causes the office Open dialog to lock.
The same action with an NCPFS mount works ok.
Of course I understand if having Office/Crossover working is not exactly a
priority but my company will need it if we are to migrate to NLD

Novell Client for Linux 2 beta & VMWare - bridged only?

OpenSUSE 11.1 with Novell Client for Linux 2.0 SP2 beta.
OpenSUSE is installed as a VMWare Workstation guest using NAT. When attempting to use contextless login, the Novell Client hangs. If you disable contextless login and then browse to the right context, you can login OK.
If you change the virtual NIC from NAT to Bridged, contextless login works fine. If at all possible, we need to use Bridged instead of NAT (long story).
Any idea what could be the problem? From what I can tell, SLP, DA, etc are set correctly, but I could be wrong.
Thanks.

Use NAT only if you need NAT - otherwise use bridged.

I was afraid that someone was goign to say something like that :)
We use port security hardware on our network, which will disable a port on the switch if it detects multiple MAC addresses on the same port. A virtual machine's bridged networking sets port security off and disables the port, so we have had to resort to NAT for all virtual machines. We can ask for exceptions to be made for a subset of our lab computers, but that is not an ideal solution.
Not only is that extra overhead for us to manage these exceptions, but we will not be able to realize our long-term goal of providing the virtual machine to our students to use on their personal notebooks since we cannot provide them port security exceptions.
I am still having problems grasping the reason that a contextless lookup (via LDAP, I assume) would misbehave while coming from a NATted connection but a bridged connection works fine on the exact same virtual machine. Shouldn't the communication between the VM and the LDAP server work properly either way??

Novell Client for Linux on OpenSUSE 12.1

Hello everyone,
I'm looking for some information on getting the last release (2.0 SP2) of the Novell Client for Linux to install and run on OpenSUSE 12.1. Has anybody been able to do this yet?
Thanks

Yep,
However, openSUSE 12.1 comes with kernel 3.1.x . Come on guys, I would do it myself if I had the source code...

But the SLED 11.2 Novell Client version is 3.0.0-0.18.20.7 and this is
not available as a seperate download.

Was this a fresh install of 1.1?

Novell client for linux - scripted install and configure

the novell client is included in SLED11 SP1
the configuration files are in /etc/opt/novell/ncl (esp login.conf)
I want to script the configuration of the novell-client. Some of the things the interface yast - Novell client does, is:
modify /etc/pam.d/gdm
create /lib/security/pam_ncl_autologin.so
... and maybe more....?
according to Novell Documentation there should be a make_novell-client-conf_rpm Bash script but i cant find it in any of the recent clients (download) nor on the SLED installation.
I think just copying pam.d files and the .so file will work, but might cause troubles in the long run.
What should i do to create these by script?

/lib/security/pam_ncl_autologin.so is updated by the post processing inside the rpm's. We don't need to do anything. however there is much to do. i'll show what i do. You need to change the variables and entries to suit your env.

So far this is working well.
The novell login needs to be run once, and on the advanced tab, have the session saved. This then auto runs afterwards for each logon.
as a troubleshooting tool, I :
Code:
cp /etc/etc.1
rsync -avP etc* my-pc:/tmp/
i can then use krusader to compare files (on my-pc), but most importantly, after doing something (eg yast ldap). rerun the rsync line and and it will tell exactly which file(s) changed, so you know which ones to check/keep/alter/etc
hope this helps.

Novell Client for Linux and openSuse 64bit

Does anyone know what the timeline may be on a beta NCL that will work
w/64-bit openSuse 10.2?
I've tried the current versions w/the patches that Loki posted on the web
and have not met w/success.
Thanks.
Glenn
PS.Perhaps their new business partner in Redmond has persuaded Novell to
drop support of NCL?

Is there really a Cisco VPN client for Linux? _Really?_

Hello folks,
        I've finally after almost experiencing a brain aneurysm by trying to think too hard got my Cisco 881-SEC-K9 router properly configured for a multipoint IPSec VPN tunnel to my Amazon Virtual Private Cloud, so that hurdle is finally passed and I actually feel it was a very important milestone in my life somehow. I never thought I'd see the day I actually got my hands on a legitimate Cisco non-stink... erm.. I mean, non-linksys router. Now I just can't seem to find a 'client' VPN program for Linux. I'm currently running a Xen Hypervisor environment on openSUSE Linux because it's the only Linux distribution that completes all of my strenous requirements in a Linux server environment. It's also the most mature, and secure Linux on this planet, making it the most appreciable Linux distribution for my research needs. Using NetworkManager is not really an option for a basic Linux server environment, and OpenVPN is just too confusing to comprehend for my tiny little head. I've heard mention of some mysterious "Easy VPN" but after hours of digging online can't find any information about it, even the Cisco download link leads to a Page Not Found error. I do see a Linux VPN API for the AnyConnect program, but is that an actual VPN client, or just an API? It seems to want my money to download it but I don't have any money nor do I really know what it is because it's all secretive-like, closed source, and I can't even find a simple README file on it explaining what it is exactly. I'm just an out-of-work software developer trying to connect to my home router for personal use and I can't really afford to fork over a million and a half dollars for a single program that I'm only going to need to download once in my lifetime that should have been included with the router in the first place. I more than likely won't even be able to figure out how to use the program anyways because I don't know anything about VPN connections which is why I bought this router so I can try to figure it all out as part of the not-for-profit open source, volunteer research I'm presently trying to conduct. Is there some kind of evaluation or trial period for personal use? That would be really nice so I could at least figure out if I'm going to be able to figure it out or not. I hate throwing money away when it's in such short supply these days. There's really no alternative to a Cisco router. It's an absolute necessity for the things I'm trying to accomplish, so trying to settle for something else and going on with my life is not really an option. No, this is something I just need to face head on and get it over with.
<Rant>
       Maybe I have a little too much crazy in me for my own good, but I don't see why it should take so much money just to learn how to do something for personal reference, it's not really a skill I would ever use otherwise. Wouldn't it be great if Cisco made their VPN client open source and free to the public to use and modify, to improve on, to learn and to grow and bring the whole world closer together as a community? Even the source code to the old discontinued Cisco VPN client could be used as a valuable learning tool for some poor starving college student or Open Source Software developer somewhere trying to get by on Ramen Noodles and Ramen Noodle Sauce on Toast (don't tell me you never thought about it). Through the ripple effect, It would drastically improve sales over the course of time, because it would open the door to a whole new market where those who previously could not afford to participate now could. That's the true power of Open Source. It creates a more skilled work force for the future by openly contributing and sharing knowledge together. What if the next big internet technology and the solution to world tyranny - the solution to end all wars forever - were locked in the mind of an unemployed software developer who couldn't afford to upgrade their cisco router software or access the software they needed because it was closed source and required committing to an expensive service contract to download? That would be just terrible, wouldn't it? I guess there's no way to ever know for sure. I suppose I'd be just as happy if some kind soul out there could point me to an easy to use alternative to an always on VPN connection that runs in the background which doesn't require NetworkManager or having to spend days upon days digging through and trying to comprehend either some really poor or extremely complex documentation? I apologize for all the run on sentences posed as questions, but I've just got some serious mental burnout from all of this, being unemployed is some hard work folks. I could really use a vacation. Perhaps a camping trip to the coast is in order after I get this working, that sounds nice, doesn't it? Nothing like a good summer thunder storm on the ocean beach - far away from technology - to refresh the mind.
</Rant>

I do tend to talk too much and I don't mince any words either. What I am however, is really appreciative for the help. I know you hear that all the time, but you have no idea how much time and headache you just saved me. I think vpnc might be just what I've been looking for, unless someone can think of a client for Linux that I might be able to throw a little further. I'm very security minded now, after the backlash of Blackhat 2013, there's no telling which direction the internet might head next. Oh, you didn't hear? Well wether they realize it or not, DARPA basically declared war with other government agencies by releasing their own version of a spy program for civilians to use against the whoever -- possibly even the governmnet itself. They even went so far as to suggest it's private usage to blanket entire cities in information gathering. Civilians are a powerful foe, as they are not bound by the oath of office, any evidence they obtain is admissible in court, wether they know that or not. There's a very important reason for that. It's to prevent another civil war from ever happening, we shed enough blood the first time around less people forgot. It's something that can and will be avoided because our civilization has advanced beyond the need for bloodshed. The courts have to obey the majority rule, no matter what. For the first time in history, cyberwarfare can reach into the physical world to cause serious damage to physical structures like the nuclear facility incident in Iran. There's scarry bills trying to sneak through congress that are changing the landscape of technology forever for the entire world. We're at a pivotal point now where things can happen. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out over the next decade or so. No matter which way you look at it, just be preparerd to sell a whole lot of routers.

Novell Client for Ubuntu & Rhel

Hi All
I need suggestion & help on the below requirement
Requirement: I am planning to install edirectory directory service for my customer, since the requirement is to have a Directory Service like AD, & to provide logging service to the directory, & to have all the user data & home directories on the server. The users have different desktops like Windows XP,7,RHEL & Ubuntu desktops. I need Novell Client to install on all the user machines & provide logging services.
1) Is edir can be used to apply policies & group policies like AD.
2) Novell Client for RHEL & Ubuntu
3) To create volumes on the OES (like we do on netware servers) to share the volumes to the users.
4) iManager is installed but the browser is unable to open the page.(object not found)
5) Users Home Directories should be stored in server.
Server OS: SLES 10 SP4 32-bit
Applications: OES2 SP3 32-bit

baranii wrote:

By itself, no. You would either need to use OES2 which includes Domain
Services for Windows, which is essentially AD emulation on top of eDir,
or you would need to use ZENworks which provides extensive policies and
desktop management capabilities. ZENworks will work with either eDir
or AD.
> 2) Novell Client for RHEL & Ubuntu
This does not exist. There is only a Novell Client for Windows and for
SUSE Linux.

That's easily done with OES2. You can create NSS volumes just like on
NetWare, or even share Linux directories as NCP volumes accessible from
any Novell client.
> 4) iManager is installed but the browser is unable to open the

That's going to be its own issue and should go into either an OES2 or
iManager forum.
> 5) Users Home Directories should be stored in server.
Not a problem, at least with storing home directories on NSS. I'm not
sure about storing them in a non-NSS filesystem.
> Server OS: SLES 10 SP4 32-bit
> Applications: OES2 SP3 32-bit
OES2 SP3 should meet many of your needs it appears. You can get
policies with DSfW, but you have to install DSfW at the same time you
install the server. You can't (currently) add it after the fact.

Failed to install php-oci8 with instant Client for linux 64

Hello,
I have a 64-bits Linux box with RHEL4, and PHP version has been upgraded from 4.3.9 to 5.1.6. I try to make the connection to remote oracle server.
I download instantclient-basic-linuxppc-10.2.0.2-20060327.zip , and follow the instruction to
install it.
But when i try to install php-oci8*.rpm, no matter which i use:
php-oci8-5.1.6-1.el5.i386.rpm or php-oci8-4.3.9-2.2.el4.i386.rpm
The installation always failed due to dependencies errors with oracle instant client.
I also tried with some other packages like: php-oci8-4.3.9-3.el4.x86_64.rpm
All my tries gave me dependency errors.
sometime like:
error: Failed dependencies:
libclntsh.so.10.1 is needed by php-oci8-5.1.6-1.el5.i386
oracle-instantclient = 10.2.0.3 is needed by
php-oci8-5.1.6-1.el5.i386And I cannt find the right RPM for oracle instant client for linux 64 bits box, and php-oci8 5.1.6 64 bits.
I have been trying on this problem for more than one week, and so frustrated. I will appreciate if I can be guide on this issue.
Thanks in advance!

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.

I export the display and as soon as i click on next on hte Select Hyperion Home Directory screen the install hangs.
Source files are local, installed to a local directory
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
I think you'll run into issues if Server & client versions aren't matching.
We had run into this problem even when we were migrating just from 9.3.1.0 to 9.3.1.3.

Oracle 9i client for linux & PHP

I'm looking to connect PHP on my linux server to a remote oracle server running 9i. I have been unsuccessful in finding good documentation on this process, as most people are either using windows or connecting to a local server.
As far as I can tell, you must install the oracle client for linux, then recompile PHP with oracle support. So:
1) Is this the best method to do this, and if so where can I get an oracle client for linux?
2) Is there a location where I can get the oracle extension for PHP without having to recompile PHP?

I believe the extensions are refered to in the php.ini
and need to be setup.
;Windows Extensions
;Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed for it.
extension=php_oracle.dll
;Don't know if this is needed and whether there is a
;php_oci9.dll
;extension=php_oci8.dll
which can be found by this:
extension_dir = "C:\WINDOWS"
I am trying to perform a similar task, well, sort of. I am running Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1.0) on a Win2003Server machine and do not want to build PHP either.
Please let me know if you find your answer.
Thanks

WWW Location of the Novell Client for XP supporting IP Gateway Services

When connecting Windows XP workstations to the SBS 6.0 server through the
Novell Client 4.9SP1a for Windows XP, there are no services within 4.9
for IP Gateway included. As many of you know, by using BorderManager as
the Firewall/NAT/IP/IPX Gateway to access the Internet, all workstations
accessing the Internet need the IP Gateway service installed with the
client. The Novell Client CD-ROM shipped with the Novell SBS 6.0 media
has clients for Windows NT/2000 (outdated) but none are compatible for
Windows XP (it appears that Novell had not updated their Novell SBS 6.0
media since they started shipping it). In addition, the online
documentation included with the media is outdated (e.g. BorderManager 3.6
docs for BorderManager 3.7 being shipped) and do not mention anything
about configuring Windows XP clients for Novell IP Gateway services.
I have thoroughly looked within Novell's Support site the past few weeks
for:
+ The original Novell Client 4.9 (prior to support packs) to see if that
version of the client has IP Gateway services included (file not found or
listed).
+ Previous Novell Clients for Windows XP to see if those versions support
IP Gateway services. (Support Pack versions only are listed, but no
original versions, and do not contain Novell IP Gateway services).
+ Any instructions or tips for configuring the Novell IP Gateway services
within the Novell Client 4.9 or earlier versions for Windows XP(documents
are non-existent).
All of the above leads the following question:
Can someone please direct me to the location to where the proper
Novell Client for Windows XP supporting Novell IP Gateway services?
Since Windows XP has been around for a few years now, one would think
Novell would have developed a client for it that possesses Novell IP
Gateway services by now to be used with BorderManager. Correct? If so,
where is it? In addition, one would think Novell would include the media
supporting the current software they are shipping, not outdated ones.
(Or at least, ensure their outsourced sales services are doing so.) In
addition, one would also think Novell would at least provide the
necessary tools/files necessary to at least to have the ability to
install their products out of the box - instead of forcing their
consumers to purchase unnecessary additional support services for
something they should have included within their media package or website
at the start.
Nevertheless, I appreciate any input where to find the appropriate Novell
Client for Windows XP supporting Novell IP Gateway services.
Thanks,
EricV

This is simply not correct. Novell has not been providing IP gateway
functionality within Client32 for a long time, because it is not needed,
and it had serious limitations.
I haven't had a client using IP Gateway for many years now, and I have a
*lot* of BorderManager clients.
The alternative to IP Gateways is a combination of proxies and NAT w/filter
exceptions.

9.2 client for linux

Is it possible to download a 9.2 client for linux?

In that case you need to download the RDBMS I think. The OCI stuff (libraries/headers/demos) is included with the db install.
The runtime portions (shared libraries and such) are in the client and the InstantClient would work for this as well.

RHEL6x64.1.0.0.4014.tar Not Found in ConfigMgr Clients for Linux

I'm looking to download RHEL6x64.1.0.0.4014.tar from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36212, after extraction of the ConfigMgr Clients for Linux, I only have the RHEL4 and a few others, What's going on? The website states
RHEL6 is included. but I can't find it. Please Enlighten me! :)

Use Universalx64.1.0.0.4648.tar. This package covers all of the supported Linux distros *except* RHEL 4 and SLES 9, which are really old and required us to create a separate package.
Also, we would recommend that you pick up the ConfigMgr Linux clients for 2012 R2, even if you are still running 2012 SP1. You will still want the "Universal" package. And note that the version number on the R2 package (4580) is less than
the version number on the SP1 package (4648). This is confusing but correct -- the 4580 package is later.

Thanks so much! and also for the update on the "ConfigMgr Linux clients for 2012 R2" advice taken.
