Oracle considering creating its own Linux Distro?

According to this article they are:
http://news.com.com/Oracle+says+may+launch+own+Linux+version/2100-7344_3-6061696.html
If they do decide to create an Oracle Linux, what Distro would you like to see them base it on?
RH? [ a quick scan shows the issues RH has with Oracle's software right now ]
Debian?
Suse?
Slack?
Gentoo?
Actually, I would recommend they work with a from scratch distro and build it themselves completely, since RH is as far from being standards compliant as possible, Suse isn't a lot better.
Debian is closest to being standards compliant, but since the standard states RPM is the package manager and Debian won't downgrade from their own .deb system they aren't fully compliant.
Red Hat has the major Market share, but buying a bugware distro and fixing it would cost more than rolling their own from scratch would.
I would love to see a Company that could give Microsoft a run for their money backing a Linux Distribution, but I would hate to see that company saddle themselves with bugware to start with. I say that rolling their own is the best way for Oracle to go

One thing that could be done quite simply is to produce an appliance style distro.
Most distros try to be all things to all people (Server, Desktop, Laptop, Appliance). Oracle only need a secure distro that can run their products and a browser. No need for 1 million and 1 additon tools and packages. No openoffice or mail client. Just a solid server distro to run Oracle database and app servers.
I can see the appeal of that, and it's less of a threat to the other Linux vendors.
Cheers

    In some folks' version of the world, you have plenty of ways. YOu have the aforementioned services, you have iCloud, all you need is an internet connection and you're good to go. And that works perfectly...if you always have the internet.
    If you want more non-internet dependant ways, then the best way to let Apple know is to send them feedback. They don't monitor or respond to this forum (Beyond removing rule breaking posts) but they do at least log feedback. However, the lack of a file manager will always be an obstacle. There are some apps out there that have at least a pseudo file manager - as in the ability to move documents into multiple other apps. I have Readdle Docs which I can use to download and move things around with, but again, back to the internet or wireless.

  • Will Apple Create Its Own Version Of 2-Step Verification For Apple Services?

    I create strong passwords which include numbers, upper and lower case letters, !? and other allowed symbols.  However, even with good passwords, key-logger programs and other methods can be used to hack accounts.
    Google has created the Google Authenticator App which is 2-step Verification.  It is very secure and makes external hacking as close to impossible as one can get.  I use it for my Google Products, including Gmail, Blogger, Google+ and so on.  It is an added step which can seem like a pain, but I really enjoy the sense of added security.
    Will Apple ever create its own version to help secure iCloud, Apple Mail, iTunes, so on?  I would really like to see this as an optional security feature.

  • How do I prevent fullscreen to create its own space or how do I create a keyboard shortcut to such a fullscreen space

    Hello,
        In Mountain Lion, I could select from the dock icon the Options -> Assign To -> This Desktop to link back a fullscreen app to one desktop which allowed me to have a direct shortcut to my fullscreen app, e.g. ⌘3. In Mavericks this does not work and I cannot find how to disable the new space for fullscreen app nor how to create a keyboard shortcut for switch directly to that app once it's in fullscreen.
        Any help would be much appreciated, I would hate to have to downgrade back to Mountain Lion.

    The most typical solution for enterprise sites is to store their users credentials in an LDAP store such as Oracle Internet Directory (OID) or MS Active Directory. LDAP is an industry standard for extremely fast directory services over IP network infrastructure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol).
    In turn some sites store their user credentials in databases tables. Of course databases can be configured for fast lookups too, but it is a database centric solution where LDAP is designed to work across networks and is ideal for servers as a result which live and breath on the network.
    In case of Java EE applications and especially those written in ADF, the use of these services isn't written into the application, but rather the application delegates this responsibility of configuring and providing these services back to the Java EE server. So for example Edwin's post is about configuring a WLS "security provider" to lookup user's info from the database, and here is another blog I wrote for MS Active Directory a while back (http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com.au/2008/12/configuring-wls-with-ms-active.html). The main advantage here is you don't have every application baking its own solution, rather WLS provides a standard well tested way to configure the security lookups.
    In terms of writing (i.e. creating users) to the security store over reading from it, indeed you need to build your own code. Ramandeep Singh Nanda has a nice post on doing this with OID through Oracle's OPSS: http://ramannanda.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/opss-adf-security-utility.html
    Finally what sites like Amazon and Facebook do aren't necessarily good examples to follow as they're application's requirements are typically far in excess of a typical enterprise site, and in turn have often written bespoke solutions to deal with their scalability and distribution requirements. I dare say LDAP is a good choice for 99% of enterprises.

  • IPages creates its own limited space text box

    Upon opening a new document using the blank template, once we begin typing, the program seems to throw its own text box around the text. This "box" only utilizes approx half the page, and we can't continue to type. If we click outside the box, it disappears, but once we try to resume typing it reappears. There seems to be no way to resize/reformat it, or make it go away. What are we doing wrong?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You're typing in the header. There is no text layer in Layout mode as there is in Word Processing mode. You have to create a text box. Choose Show Layout from the View menu and you can see the header and footer. See my replies in "Can't Change Document Margins in Template" for a bit more information on the Layout mode.

  • HP ENVY 4500 creates its own SSID on my WiFi network causing problems and confusion

    I am finding this problem hard to articulate clearly and I can’t find any information on the internet about why my new HP Envy 4500 printer has set itself up with its own SSID on my WiFi network, but here goes :
    I bought an HP Envy 4500 all in one printer for my daughter’s room in university, which has a WiFi network with WPA security. First I tried to add this printer to the room WiFi using the printer menu, but it gave an error stating that the WPA passkey format was incorrect, when in fact it was the correct password. So instead I had to install the printer using the installation options accessed from the HP website using her laptop.
    This has worked, but it has also set the printer up with its own independent SSID called ‘HP-Setup-45-ENVY 4500 Series’. This separate SSID for the printer is causing some problems and does not seem to have any useful purpose. For example sometimes documents randomly will not print from the laptop, but if you then disconnect the laptop from the room SSID and reconnect it to the printer SSID, the documents will then print, but then you have to reconnect to the room's SSID when done. This is confusing and of course completely unwanted behaviour.
    Does anyone know why this new SSID called ‘HP-Setup-45-ENVY 4500 Series’ has been set up for the printer please? Can I get rid of it so that printer is simply a device connected on the WiFi network in the room please?
    I hope this makes sense as this a very frustrating issue for something that should be completely straightforward.
    Thanks.
    This question was solved.

  • Redistribution of Oracle Instant Client in a linux distro

    Hello,
    Im one of the Archlinux TUs (Trusted Users, who are packagers for the community repository, i mean, a repository of users packages).
    I want to know if that is possible and legal to redistribute the oracle-instant-client in a binary form (in a pkg.tar.gz - i.e package ) ?
    Some great opensource packages use oracle and it would be great if we could add it to make these packages avaliable to all users.

  • Airport creates its own network

    I'm not able to share my itunes library between computers on my ethernet home network and my airport network, I think because airport sets up its own network (10.0.0.x). Is there a way to force airport to be part of my existing ethernet network, so I have only one network within my home?

    You can download AirPort Admin Utility, version 4.2, from this page. Although the old installer won't work, the AirPort Admin Utility can be extracted.
    . Download the disk image named "AirPortSW42.dmg"
    . If the installer launches, quit the installer
    . Double-click the disk image to mount a volume named "AirPort 4.2 Update"
    . Within the AirPort 4.2 Update window, ctrl-click on "AirPortSW.pkg"
    . Select "Show Package Contents"
    . Open the "Contents" folder
    . Double-click the "Archive.pax.gz" file, which causes an "Archive.pax" file and an "Archive" folder to be extracted
    . Open the "Archive" folder, the "Applications" folder within it, and the "Utilities" folder within that. The AirPort Admin Utility is there.
    If you want to use AirPort Admin Utility's Help menu, even though some of the help may be outdated, you can also retrieve the AirPort.help file from the downloaded Archive>Library>Documentation>Help folder and move it to Macintosh HD>Library>Documentation>Help.
    Discard the other downloaded files. (In particular, AirPort Setup Assistant version 4.2 is not compatible with Graphite or Snow base stations.)

  • Oracle not using its own explain plan

    When I run a simple select query on an indexed column on a large (30 million records) table oracle creates a plan using the indexed column and at a cost of 4. However, what it actually does is do a table scan (I can see this in the 'Long Operations' tab in OEM).
    The funny thing is that I have the same query in a ADO application and when the query is run from there, the same plan is created but no table scan is done - and the query returns in less than a second. However, with the table scan it is over a minute.
    When run through SQL plus Oracle creates a plan including the table scan at a cost of 19030.
    In another (dot net) application I used the: "Alter session set optimizer_index_caching=100" and "Alter session set optimizer_index_cost_adj=10" to try to force the optimizer to use the index. It creates the expected plan, but still does the table scan.
    The query is in the form of:
    "Select * from tab where indexedcol = something"
    Im using Oracle 9i 9.2.0.1.0
    Any ideas as I'm completely at a loss?

    Hello
    It sounds to me like this has something to do with bind variable peeking which was introduced in 9i. If the predicate is
    indexedcolumn = :bind_variablethe first time the query is parsed by oracle, it will "peek" at the value in the bind variable and see what it is and will generate an execution plan based on this. That same plan will be used for matching SQL.
    If you use a litteral, it will generate the plan based on that, and will generate a separate plan for each litteral you use (depending on the value of the cursor_sharing initialisation parameter).
    This can cause there to be a difference between the execution plan seen when issuing EXPLAIN PLAN FOR, and the actual exectuion plan used when the query is run.
    Have a look at the following example:

  • TM by-passes external drive and creates its own (?!)

    Hi everyone,
    This is strange: TM can correctly identify my external HD as a candidate, I choose it, and it correctly turns into the blue "Time machine disk" icon. All is good so far. But when I start the backup, TM spends some time "Making backup disk available" and it ends up creating a new volume that says "Time Machine Backups". The problem is that, instead of merging with old backups (yeah, it was working before, I don't know what happened) it tries to copy a new backup to the new drive.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    This is new: I finally solved the problem by deleting MacBookPro.sparsebundle.dmg (or something like that, don't remember the name) from the HD.
    Yes, those are the backups it made over the network.
    But I would really like to be able to use mac#2 as a server. I don't have a time capsule, so I was trying to achieve wireless backup via the powerbook. I read that if the second machine is a mac and the drive is formatted properly, I am supposed to be able to do that (?).
    Yes, you can do that. But you can't continue to use the same set of backups when you switch from directly-connected to network. Time Machine will start a new set, in a sparse bundle.
    Are you also going to back-up Mac #2 to this drive? If so, it must be big enough to hold the backups for both Macs; usually 2-3 times the total of the data it's backing-up. And you should partition the drive, so TM on Mac #2 has it's own, exclusive space (see #1, 4 and 5 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum).
    Don't try to delete the existing backups in the Backups.backupdb folder; either erase them with Disk Utility, or if you reformat and partition the drive, that will erase them automatically.

  • My iPod created its own password and locked me out, now I have to restore it, but iTunes won't restore it.

    When I powered off my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) and back on, it created a password, which I never had one set. After trying several times, it has locked me out officially and is saying, "iPod is disabled Connect to iTunes." When I managed to get it into recovery mode, it will start to restore it, then come up with an error message saying, "The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. This device isn't eligible for the requested build."
    Any idea on how to get it to restore?
          -Thanks!
    I did have a password, but got rid of it in November of 2011. I did try it, as well as several other passwords.

  • How do I stop Calendar from creating its own alerts?

    This is weird.  I Am not using Icloud, nor synching with any other calendar (as far as I know). But I create an event, put in one alert, and a few days later, it has three or more random alerts (even some well after the event). AND it will email me more alerts that it doesn't even show!  For example; A calendar event entered last week of a visit today, set to remind me by email at 9:00 AM this morning, has now emailed me 5 times, both before and after the stated one.  And the even itself now shows two reminders.  What is going on?  Thanks!
    Macbook Pro, OS Mountain Lion 10.8.2, Calendar 6.0

    I don't have a hotmail calendar, but iPhone says it is. It looks like the calendar in the manual &amp; no settings available. Can I make it not a hotmail calendar?

  • Import sites to a Mac that already has created its own iWeb sites

    Working different places I have been using iWeb on 3 different Macs. On these Macs I have created different iWeb sites, and now I would like to merge them all onto one computer, so that I can work with all of my iWeb sites from the same location. I have tried to find a way to import the sites from the other computers which I have backed up onto an external harddisk, but there doesn't seem to be any. I can easily enough move the content produced on one computer to another but that just deletes the iWeb content on the computer I am moving it to which is no good as I want to keep it.
    And now we are at it: Is there a way to publish just one of the sites created in iWeb, so that you don't have to publish all seven of them every time you alter or update one of the sites?

    As Wyodor mentioned iWebSites may be what you want. If your 3 sites are separate files then iWS is just the ticket IMO. Rename the three domain.sites2 files with the actual site name: site2,sites2, site2.sites2 and site3.sites2. Put them all in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb file and launch iWebSites. From there is pretty self explanatory.
    I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
    If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
    This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

  • HP Simple Pass appears to have created its own Windows Log on Password

    HP Pavillion M6 1035 Lap Top
    Windows 7 64-bit
    Hi, I recently bough this computer and reluctantly (cause I knew it would cause a problem) agreed to let HP Simple Pass help me manage my passwords about a month into ownership.
    When I originally set up my computer I did not create any passwords for the log on (no need for me to).  If prompted I just clicked enter.  As far as I remember, before I set up HP Simple Pass, I was not prompted to log on at start up or I just clicked enter and- it loaded straight to my desk top.  I certainly never had to type anything. 
    After using Simple Pass, I am prompted at log on for a password, or to swipe a finger. I've been using the finger swipe just fine but today decided it was a pain and I just want it back the way it was.  That is when I discovered that Windows thinks I have a Log on password.  I have tried any and all passwords I know, including all the ones I entered into Simple Pass. I have tried just hitting enter, "password", you name it and it won't let me on.  I can still gain access with the finger swipe but in the settings for the software it does not show any information about Windows Log On.  (You can for example view other account passwords, just nothing about Windows Log On). 
    I tried accessing it through my device manager and I found where I can disable this, but alas, I need the Windows logon password that Simple Pass [evidently] assigned.
    Can someone please suggest what is going on?  I am sure this will lead to a problem in the future and I am so sick of trying to fix broken computers (hence why I bought a new one).  
    Thank you in advance

    I have only seen this a couple of times and I don't have the answer...
    I do not know how you managed to set up SimplePass without a typed in Windows password.  OK, having said that:  if you have done it, then it's done.
    I would suggest that you get yourself over to AuthenTec, sign up for their forum, and ask this question in the context of the SimplePass (maybe omitting the dislike of the product since it is, after all, their means of being in business).
    Why do this?  Because I don't think it should have happened.  From the few entries I have seen on the AuthenTec forum, Miroslav Buran (at AuthenTec) is knowlegable in his field and may be able to help you straighten this out before it causes problems.
    Be sure to explain that you are using HP SimplePass and let them know the exact version of the SmplePass Software to get the best help.  Tell them your Operating System / bit, too.
    When SimplePass IS used in conjunction with a Windows password (as intended), it works very well as a rule.
    I am sorry your introduction to the tool was rocky and your experience has been less than stellar.
    I would be very interested in hearing how this is resolved.  If I find anything helpful, I will post back to you here.
    Kind Regards,
