Oracle iExpenses - Access from Internet

Hi Experts,
I would like to enable the iexpenses module to be available from Internet (and not only through Intranet). i.e. I would wish my employees to enter their expense reports from anywhere in the world through Web and not only, when they are connected to my company's intranet.
What are the necessary setups to be performed for this.
Any inputs/suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

iExpenses uses Disconnected Expense Reporting.
Basically the users can download an excel template from iExpenses. Put their expense details and later import into the Applications when they are in Intranet.
Cheers
Ganesh

Launching Microsoft Access from Internet Explorer to view a downloaded MDB file opens the wrong file (not a problem if I use Firefox)

When clicking on a link (in Internet Explorer 9) to download an Access MDB file and then choosing to open the file directly in Microsoft Access (2007) instead of saving it, the file is copied to Temporary Internet Files but Microsoft Access tries to open
a different file and displays an (Unrecognized database format) error.
When I click on the option to open the file, the MDB file is copied to Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 but instead of that file, Access tries to open a different (incorrect) file located in Temporary Internet Files\Content.MSO (e.g. in the above error
message, NativeView.do is an XML file containing an error message).
I don't see this problem with Word, Excel or PowerPoint files. When opening a Word file (without saving) the Word file is copied to Content.IE5 but an identical .tmp file is created in Content.MSO which when opened in Microsoft Word displayed the required file
correctly. The same happens for Excel files. PowerPoint appears to be handled a little differently (no .tmp file created in Content.MSO but the required file is still copied to Content.IE5) but the PPT file is still opened correctly in Microsoft PowerPoint.
I think the Content-Type "application/msaccess" is fine because Internet Explorer does launch Microsoft Access. It just tries to open the wrong file (or so I think). However, it looks like the file type is not being determined. Here is what I noticed
when trying to open different Microsoft Office files using Internet Explorer:
The last one is the MDB file. As you can see, only for this type of file, the "Type" (Microsoft Office Access 2007?) is not displayed in this Open/Save dialog box.
On Firefox, I don't see this problem. When I tried clicking on the link to the MDB file in Firefox, Microsoft Access was launched and the file was opened correctly. Is there something I can do so the MDB file is opened properly using IE? I can add/change headers
in the HTTP response that writes this file to the output stream (on disk) if that helps.
Thanks for your time!

Sounds like a problem symptom to be discussed in either an IE forum or an Access forum, not here. How did you come to post here? ForumsRedesign. That might be an on-topic issue for this forum. <eg>
Can you find your way to either of those other forums easily from here? Another on-topic question for here I think. ; )

Portal 7.3 & Web Dynpro iView, both accessed from Internet via Web Dispatch

Hi guru,
I'd like to know the best (or the correct) way to configure the FQDN and required DNS setting to allow user access ABAP Web Dynpro iview from internet.
My setup here is very typical:
One EP 7.3 in intranet, having "ep.internal.mycomp.com" as FQDN (given during installation)
One SAP ECC in intranet, having "erp.internal.mycomp.com" as SAPLOCALHOSTFULL parameter
One Web Dispatcher in DMZ, having "service.mycomp.com", and listen to 80 port (later added 8000 port for AS ABAP).
   User access my portal by using http://service.mycomp.com/irj, no problem.
But problem raised during access WD4A iview, here are my problem and questions:
[Problem]
At the beginning, we found that the WD4A iView can only be accessed in intranet, not from internet. Eventhough we register "service.mycomp.com" in public DNS. After some http level analysis, I was shock that the WD4A iview is provided directly by AS ABAP which running this WD4A, EP does not play a "relay" role. (Don't believe the URL bar in your IE, use Tamper Data or HTTP live to check the HTTP requests, you will get it). Since we DO NOT have "erp.internal.mycomp.com" in public DNS, so the iview cannot be displayed. But I DON'T want direct access to my ERP box.
I don't know a way to get rid of the "erp.mycomp.com" request generated by EP. So I tried to overcome the problem by leveraging the same Web Dispatcher used by EP. And I did make the WDisp -> ERP WD4A work using WDisp's FQDN (ie. service.mycomp.com:8000, also keep original service.mycomp.com:80 to EP), but the iview in EP does not use this FQDN. It use the SAPLOCALHOSTFULL parameter configured in backend ERP. WDisp does not do any URL replacement for me.
[Question 1]
Is there any way to hide WD4A iview in EP (server to server communication only)?
[Question 2]
If I can only have "service.mycomp.com" entry in my public DNS, should I change the SAPLOCALHOSTFULL in ERP to "service.mycomp.com"? I doubt that it may cause a "loop" situation between WDisp and ERP ?
[Question 3]
Is it possible to access WD4A on ERP by two different FQDNs (one for public via WDisp, the other for internal access w/o WDisp) ? I know there is only one SAPLOCALHOSTFULL configuration.
Anyone have done such integration ? please share your configuraiton. Thanks

Hay Wei-Shang Ku,
Many thanks to your prompt reply of this very old post I tried to ask!
for the /sap/* redirect, think it required to use icm/HTTP/redirect_<xx> parametet in WDISP profile. And i did applied below too to make default WDISP URL go to /irj (Portal login page).
icm/HTTP/redirect_0 = PREFIX=/,TO=/irj
so for "all request to /sap/* will go to ERP":
icm/HTTP/redirect_0 = PREFIX=/sap/*,TO=/??? (how do you set the TO value here?)
May i have your WDISP profile setting for reference? Did you make use of parameter wdisp/system_0?
And here is my overall setting:
we only have "service.mycomp.com" entry in public DNS.
1. "service.mycomp.com" is WDISP URL mapped to 1 public IP (we used default http 80 port)
2. we want user can access JPortal & also backend ERP via WebDynpro iView in JPortal via
   service.mycomp.com (only port only)
3. ERP system profile:
    SAPLOCALHOSTFULL = <ERPHOSTNAME>.mycomp.com (not in public DNS)
    icm/server_port_0 = PROT=HTTP,PORT=80$$,TIMEOUT=3600,PROCTIMEOUT=3600
4. Portal:
    ABAP WebDynpro iView setting -
   System = XXX (where XXX is alias of system iView)
System iView setting -
    Logical System Name = ERPCLNTXXX
    ITS host = <ERPHOSTNAME>.mycomp.com:8000
Thanks again your information, have headache of this issue for long times....

Expressway E Port 443 access from Internet

According to Cisco documentation, 443 is one of the ports that should be opened from Internet towards the Expressway-E IP. If we do that, the web-administration becomes accessible from the internet.
Is there a way to disable web-administration access from Public Internet?

Thanks Manish. Your links talks about general security measures for the VCS-E. However, not specifically about blocking admin web-interface while still allowing Mobile and Remove Access (MRA) to work.
I'm sure there should be a way to allow web management interface only from the internal interface of VCS-E and block this from external interface. (Dual NIC)

Configure R12 instance for access from internet.

Hi,
We want to access our r12 instance from internet.Can any one help me finding the relevant
configuration docs for the same??
Thanks

I strongly suggest that you reconsider your architecture. If you have a single-node system (apps and database on one server), and you're really thinking about opening that server up to access from the Internet, you're exposing your organization to serious risk.
Much better to deploy a second apps tier server in a DMZ than it would be to move your current server to the DMZ. The increased cost of ownership (additional hardware and slightly more complex architecture) is minimal compared to the risks incurred by putting your database in the DMZ.

Computer access from internet ?

We have 3 Macs (1 G5 on Leopard - 1 G5 on Tiger - 1 G4 on Tiger)
all connected to each other by Ethernet.
Is there any way to connect to one of the computer from outside, from internet ?
(providing the computers are left turned on of course!)
Thank you

AD-RMS with SharePoint Document Access from Internet

Hi Guys,
I have a single AD-RMS Server running on 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2
I have sharePoint 2010 Published to Internet.
I need to integrate AD-RMS with SharePoint instep to provide access for my docuements through SHarepoint internet.
My Questions:
Using my single AD-RMS Server with SharePoint Intergration can all AD users access SharePoint from outside to be able to open encrypted documents?
Is this artical (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee259515(WS.10).aspx) also work on SP 2010? is it the same steps?
Do I need AD FS in my case?
Do I need SSO in my case?
Thanks

Hi Jean,
1. to make that working the Internet users need to authenticate against the RMS server as well. So you need to publish this server. Depending on your network policy you can just reverse proxy the RMS server or in a more complex scenario to have another server
in a DMZ AD to facilitate that. Because you publish the Sharepoint Server to the Internet I assume you do not have a complex scenario.
I hope you have chosen the URL for the RMS cluster wisely, so that it can be address from the Internet.
2. I am not a big Sharepoint guy, but it looks familiar.
3. No, you don't.
4. No, but would be nice if the users do not have to authenticate twice. Will require a reverse proxy, e.g. TMG (what is discontinued) or similar.
Hope it helps,
Lutz

Airport Extreme and Orange LiveBox (France). No access from Internet

Hi
I have bought an Airport Extreme and configure it to use BonJour and Mobileme to be able to access my connected (USB) hard disk when I am not at my home office. When I connect from other network I can see the device, but I can not access it. Actually even when I am at home I can only connect to the disk when I directly connect to the Airport Express, but not connecting via the LiveBox router. I have set up a DMZ zone directly to my Airport Express ID, but this does not seem to work either.
Anybody knows how to solve this?
Or what are the parameters for Orange in France so I can configure the Airport Extreme and get rid off the LiveBox?
Any suggestion?
Thanks!

Welcome to the discussions!
I would highly recommend that you use an experienced IT professional for your proposed network. He or she will need to make an on-site inspection and take a number of measurements to determine the best way to design the network.
In terms of network design, the "best" and far superior design will have a main router distributing ethernet feeds to a number of other wireless access points.
Just from your preliminary information, it's very doubtful that trying to "extend" using wireless only will provide the reliable service that you need.
Please consult with an IT pro (and try to avoid using someone's friend who "knows computers") before you take any further steps. The money will be well spent.

RD Web Access from Internet without RD Gateway

I temporarily need to setup Win2012R2 based RDS service with 1 x RDWA/RDSB server & 3 x RDSH servers.
I DO NOT want to setup RD Gateway. Please note that the setup will be dismantled before the Trial period ends.
Just wish to make sure that I can have users in our AD Domain gain access the RDWA via Internet by Publishing RDWA URL.
Will this work?

Hi,
It is not recommended to expose your RDSH-farm to the internet without an RD gateway. The RD gateway's function is to tunnel rdp requests through https and make it a bit easier to get through firewalls and of course more secure.
So in your setup, I'd suggest that you setup an RD gateway on the RDWA/RDSB-server and give it the same certificate that you have on your RDWA-website.
If you don't want to do that, you need to make sure that the RDSB-name is externally accessable, and open TCP/3389 to that server, which is nothing I would recommend.
See the following blog posts for more good info about RD and its setup architecture

Remote access from internet to devices connected on my airport express

Hi,
i have installed a camera (Dlink camera) on my airport express wifi lan network, now i want to access it with a pc or iphone from another distant location.
Dlink tells this is possible, but i didn't succeed to do this . Is it possible with an airport express or simply is it possible to join my devices on my lan network from a remote location ?

Since it's a third party product, I really don't know. Dlink probably knows more than us, but maybe someone else here has experience with that camera.

Wrt 160 NL storage access from internet

Hi,
I would like to ask if there is a way how to access my HDD connected to USB on wrt 160 NL router via the internet (I have external IP adress)
I know its possible with routers which have FTP.

@ dibbler:
Seems that your statement doesn´t match at all to what is written in the product sheet of WRT160NL, look at this screenshot of the document.
If your statement is true, then I guess we should claim our money back, I don´t think that Linksys / Cisco are missleading customers to buy products that doesn´t perform as advertised. And this feature is the one that drove my decision to buy the product
By the way, I got to this thread precisely because I haven´t been able to access the storage link over the internet
and I really believe that Cisco should be doing something to explain how to accomplish it, there´s no instructions at all about this feature.

Microsoft KB2992611 broke our Vibe access from IE

We're running Vibe 3.4 on Windows 2008 R2.
If there's a fix (aside from uninstalling that patch), please let us know.
Thanks,

Microsoft KB2992611 is an update for your Win2008 server, right?!
Can you provide more details on what exactly got broken? Accessing Vibe via the web interface via IE? Which version? What's the exact error message and/or behaviour?
Does it work via FF or Chrome? How about Vibe Desktop etc.?

How to make Firefox access the internet from Oracle Ent. Unbreakable Linux?

Hello
I have a Dell Duo Core x86 laptop that multiboots Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP and Oracle Enterprise Unbreakable Linux. I use Internet Explorer to
access my email while at the library so I know my laptop can access the internet. I just installed the Oracle Enterprise Unbreakable Linux in text mode and
I can still access the Internet but only if I use one of the Windows operating systems which is why I am keeping them for now. The reason is because when I
use Oracle Enterprise Unbreakable Linux, when I select Firefox to access the internet I get these messages:
"Server not found
Firefox can't find server at www.hotmail.com
-check address for typing errors
-if unable to load pages check network connection
-if computer or network protected by firewall make sure Firefox permitted to access
web"
None of those reasons are true for not gaining access to the internet. I want to use Oracle Enterprise Unbreakable Linux from now which is why I installed
but I need to know:
1) Why do I get the "Server not found" and the other error messages when I try to access the internet using Firefox and what do I have to do to make Firefox
access the internet successfully?

Hi,
First you must confirm your laptop with Oracle Enterprise Unbreakable Linux can access internet.
Please open a terminal, input the following command
1.ifconfig
2.cat /etc/resolv.conf

Jason

How to set up reverse proxy to allow user access portal site from internet

Hi all,
I have installed 10g(10.1.2.0.2) AS on same machine(single IP for both mid and infra with different users respectively). there is a DMZ on which windows IIS is working through which we need to redirect the request to application server such that users access portal page from internet (within intranet all URLs are working fine). I have went through technet documentation where i found 3 ways : through this link
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/core.1012/b13998/variants.htm
Section 9.2.1.1, "Configuring OracleAS Web Cache as a Reverse Proxy"
Section 9.2.1.2, "Configuring the Oracle HTTP Server as a Reverse Proxy"
Section 9.2.1.3, "Configuring Internet Information Services as a Reverse Proxy"
I am confused to which option to use. Also i went through the metalink document 270160.1
Please help me which option to choose to do this.
Thanks.

Hi Hozy,
May be it's too late, I am thinking to go in the same route for our sap portal access to external customers. Please can you share your experience , like what are the challenges have you faced? what is the complexity? what are all the resources we need to configure this?
I appreciate your feedback.
Thanks
