OBIEE presentation url to use domain name

Experts,
I would like to make OBIEE presentation url to use domain name instead of ip address. What and where is the change required for this?
Currently the url is like this - http://10.20.123.456:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard and we want something like this http://myobiee.com:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard
OBIEE : 10.1.3.4

Hi Vamsy,
Thanks for your response. I tried your suggestion in my local installation, but no luck.
Network Error (dns_server_failure)
Your request could not be processed because an error occurred contacting the DNS server.......
Am I missing something here. Do you think it is this simple to achieve?

How to convert URL to its domain name

Hi,
I need to get the client machine name to track who had logged on to the website. I know how to get the url using the request as : request.getRequestUrl(), but is there a way i use this information to get the domain name for the url?
Thanks a lot.
cc

Well if you have the actual URL, then can't you just parse the string, extracting the portion after the last dot for example?
Also, you may want to take a look at the java.net.InetAddress class --it has static methods for returning both the IP and the name of a computer.

Using domain name instead of ip address

I have a tomcat server installed on machine1(server). I can access this server from other computer on intranet using http://ipAddressOfServer/. Now, I want to access the server using a domain name, for example http://domainName.com. Can we do that in Tomcat or does it require to install any third party software.

You can associate a Virtual Host to the loopback IP address 127.0.0.1 read about Virtual Hosts here: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/virtual-hosting-howto.html
But with the above configuration alone you can access your app via http://somedomainname.com only on your local machine, no one else on the internet will see it.

Using domain names in access rules

In an access-rule, is there a way to define a host by using its FQDN, without the IOS resolving the name to an IP address? My problem is that I'm trying to give my home PC secure access to my router's SDM, but my ISP changes my IP address every few days. I have DDNS service from no-ip.com, so I have a valid FQDN that never changes. Is this possible? I have a Cisco 2811 with IOS version 12.4(3g). Any help or advise will be appreciated.

Agreed, you have to have some semblence of an IP address segment. In my part of the world we pay the extra $9.99 to get a static IP Address from a local ISP. When it comes to having reliable remote access to the network we have to administer and maintain, it's worth it.

Can I use domain name to access local web (& other) services via VPN?

I've just set up a VPN service for our office but, when connected via VPN, I can't seem to access our Wiki Server via our domain (http://example.private/groups/). Instead it will only let me access it via IP (http://192.168.1.2/groups/)
Is it possible to access it via http://example.private/groups/ and if so what do I need to do?
EDIT: actually, same goes with the local iChat and iCal services too.
Message was edited by: Christiaan

Okay, it's sorted. I phone Apple Support.
The solution is to open Server Admin. Go to VPN Settings, then click on the Client Information tab, then add your local DNS server to the DNS Servers list (in our case 192.168.1.2).
I would have expected the Standard configuration of Leopard Server setup to have added this by default, so I'll submit a bug report when I get a chance.

How to configure internet domain name for P6 website using weblogic

After installing and configuring weblogic for P6 you get the following address https://servername:7002/console/login/LoginForm.jsp to access P6 website. Anyone know how to configure a purchase domain such as www.mydomain.com have it redirect to https://servername:7002/console/login/LoginForm.jsp Is this configured in weblogic server? If not, what is needed to redirect the purchased domain?

HI
You could have that domain resolving to/by some DNS servers and set up a load balancer / proxy to redirect every incoming request to that domain / site to your weblogic console.
however , what is it you are trying to do? It is very unsual of redirecting/ using Domain names to redirect to wls consoles.
could you explain your use case in detail please

Business catalyst transfer hosting / domain name issues

Hello,
Hopefully someone can help with this. There is no information to be found anywhere about this anywhere. So here goes..
-Basically I have a an old site using my .com hosted away from CC. I also have a newer version of my website hosted at CC and using the same .com BUT using the 'Business catalyst" tag"
-I now want to shut down my old site hosted away from CC-to free up the .com so I can use me new website WITHOUT having to use the Business catalyst tag (While remain being hosted on CC)
This is what my other host has asked me to get - (and that Adobe has no information on)
My old host:
"In order to transfer the domain name to your new provider (CC) you need to organise the following:
.co.uk domain - In order to transfer the .co.uk domain name,
we need to be given the new 'Nominet Tag' for your new provider (CC). We can then switch the tag at our end and your new provider (CC) can gain access to the domain name.
.com domain - In order to transfer the .com domain name, your new provider (CC) will need to request a transfer of the .com domain from their end. We have unlocked the domain so this can be requested. Once they have done this, we will be able to provide an authorisation code that will enable them to complete the transfer."
Please help. This is very confusing..
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!!

Hi,
If planning on reusing a domain for another site...
First you need to remove the domain from our old site/host. Once you have done this you can then add your domain to whichever site you require. Then set up your DNS accordingly whether you want to host with BC or externally.

Web Domain Name Question??

So this is going to sound really noobie like...well because I'm not really a network admin by day.
I have my server set and functioning with DNS, Web, OD, and a mixture of file sharing services. So...when creating a new Site in Web service, I set a 'Domain Name' (like www.example.com) and 'Aliases' (like example.com). If I then go to a web browser and type "www.example.com" or "example.com" I get nothing...but, if I type in the FQDN of the server (like "http://ns1.mydomain.com"), it will go to my site.
Now, I know that the domain I'm setting isn't a registered domain, but with all of my client computers pointing to the DNS of the server, shouldn't it resolve to be like a 'local host' kinda thing?
I don't need this to be live to the internet...just a local site. Any help or suggestion is much appreciated!
Thank you!!

Hi Corey
To put it simply you really don't need any other IP address in the Server's DNS Server's field other than its own address. Of course this assumes the server is also the DNS Server. The Server in effect is using its own DNS to resolve itself locally and any client computers that are using it for their DNS as well as accessing the internet. Obviously clients using the Server for their DNS will also be accessing the internet using the Server.
If the Server is down then it won't matter whether if it can get on the internet - its down. For clients using the server it will matter. So for clients you could either not bother using the Server and use either the Router IP address (if the router is not your server) or any ISP supplied DNS Server addresses. Or place these addresses as secondary addresses.
A lot depends on how you want clients to access server hosted domains? If you want to use domain names then clients have to know which DNS Server resolves that name to an IP address. Of course you could just simply use the server's IP address locally - clients will still access the site.
This explanation is as simple as I can make it. There are others on these forums who could (or may if they post) explain things a lot better?
Glad I could help and thank you for the feedback.

My problem is adding <www.onlyrealgamemovie.com > back on BC -- I keep getting and error message:
"cannot add domain because this domain already exisits. Please delete the domain."
I DID delete it so I do not know what to do!
HELP!!! The 5 producers are getting very anxious about the site not being up yet!!!

How to change domain name in OD?

Hi, I can't remember what I did to my installation of Server 10.5.6, but now whenever I promote it to OD Standalone, it automatically use domain name A.com. For example, oc=a,oc=a,...
I want to change the domain name to B, and make OD to use the new name B.com.
How do I do it?

I'll second that it's probably a DNS issue, although it may also have to do with the server's configured hostname (which was entered when the server was first set up). Basically, the requirement is that a DNS lookup on the hostname should return the server's primary IP address, and a reverse DNS lookup on the primary IP address should return the server's configured hostname. If you want the server to be set up as B.com, you need to:
a) make sure its configured hostname is "B.com" (you can check it with the "hostname" command). If it isn't, use the "changeip" command to fix it. If your server's IP address was 1.2.3.4, the command would be "sudo changeip - 1.2.3.4 1.2.3.4 A.com B.com".
b) make sure the DNS forward and backward lookups work right. Use the command "host B.com" to check the forward lookup (it should answer with 1.2.3.4, or whatever the server's IP address actually is), then "host 1.2.3.4" to check the reverse lookup (it should return B.com). If any of this doesn't work, find out who's supplying your DNS service and bug them to fix it.

Domain name is duplicated...making it longer and redundant than necessary

This happened when I updated my domain name a few extra times with hosting by .mac. What to do to get it with just one?
Thanks
http://www.brendaboylan.com/BrendaBoylan.com/Brenda_Boylan.html

That's because you named your site the same as your domain name. The usual URL for CNAME domain name forwarding is www.domainname.com/site_name/page_name.html.
Change your site name to something descriptive of your offerings you will get rid of the double domain name in the URL.
Another way to get rid of the double domain name is to publish your site to a folder on the hard drive and uploaed just the contents of the site folder to your server. You will have to delete the existing site folder from the server beforehand and then upload just the contents. That will give you

for the first page. Then next page would be:

Modifying Portal URL to use Fully Qualified Domain Name

Hi,
We have a portal that I can access now by using the URL 'invsrvr001:50000/irj/portal'. We would need the URL to use the fully qualified domain name such as 'invsrvr001.company.com:50000/irj/portal'. Towards that end we added the profile paramter 'icm/host_name_full' with parameter value 'invsrvr001.company.com' and restarted the server. After the we tried to login to the portal using 'invsrvr001.company.com:50000/irj/portal' but the system displayed 'The page cannot be displayed' error.
What else needs to be done so as to use the fully quailified domain name?
Do I name to change the computer name from 'INVSRVR001' to 'INVSRVR001.COMPANY.COM'?
Regards
ND

Ok, if you want to use FQDN including your domain extention (host.domain.com) you need to include your host into the domain.
Also your PDC should be doing the time of DNS server so check that.
This should solve your issue, please close the thread.

How to add domain name to SharePoint URL so SharePoint used FQDN address?

Hello,
I have SharePoint sites with fully qualified domain name (FQDN). I have DNS and SharePoint configured to access sites with the FQDN links. I work in an organization with users who have logins in different domains, SharePoint servers are in different domains,
and users who connect to the SharePoint externally. So, the FQDN links used for SharePoint sites works great in getting users connected. However, some users enter sites with no FQDN, i.e http://sharepointsite v.s. http://sharepointsite.domain.com, and some
of the SharePoint features do not work or they may not be able to connect to sites.
The problem is that users have short-cuts or favorites or hyper-links with links that are non-FQDN.
In my alternative access mappings, I have both settings for non-FQDN and FQDN, like http://server and http://server.domain.com, but this does not help. The public URL zone is the FQDN and the site collection is the FQDN URL.
Is there a way for DNS to add the domain.com automatically to web links, if they don't have them? Anything I can do differently in SharePoint?
Paul

I actually posted that question on that site.
In the alternative access mappings, I tried adding a http://site as in Internal URLs in the default zone and SharePoint would not take it. I tried adding the URL in the intranet zone and SharePoint said it was already
added.
So, this did not work.
DNS settings are:
Alias (CNAME) = sharepointsite
Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) = sharepointsite.domain.com
Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) for target host = server.domain.com
When I type in sharepiontsite in IE address bar, it will revert to
http://sharepointsite.domain.com. So, that is working, but the URL is not converted to a FQDN with a full address, like
http://sharepointsite/project/default.aspx
I am still stuck. Any other suggestions?
Paul

You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
*Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
*Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
*Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
*Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
