PHD from directory other than /Users

Hi All,
I have gotten PHD to work with my Leopard Server 10.5.6, but only if the directory is located in /Users.
When I try to create an account with Workgroup Manager on another volume (say, my large RAID which is where I really want it, /raid/phd ), there is always an error saying that the network home is unavailable, contact system admin, or something to that tune. I shut off all the Guest login stuff on /Users and turned it on for /raid/phd and I can log in to the account as if it were a standard file share.
I have tried making aliases back to /Users (both ln -s and Option-Drag) but it does not work.
Unfortunately I can not simply install the OS over on the raid device and be done with it--it would be a lot of work.
Does anyone have a solution?

Hi
+Does anyone have a solution?+
Yes. Possibly? Without knowing too much about your environment you could:
Unshare the Users folder. Navigate to the desired folder on the RAID. Set it to share. Configure it to automount for home directories. Now launch WorkGroup Manager. Select a User and under the Homes tab you should see the path for the newly created sharepoint You'll probably see the path for the previous one as well. Ignore this and simply select the new one. Click Create Home Now and click Save.
Verify the folder has been created by navigating to the parent folder. If you populate the LDAP node with desired users and provided the correct path is defined in the Advanced tab you can issue:
sudo createhomefolder -a
from the command line. This will create home folders for all your users. Or you could simply the use the GUI a user at a time or select them all and click create home now followed by save. You should be able to see the folders being created by having the parent folder open.
Have you enabled ACLs for the RAID? If not issue:
sudo fsaclctl -p /Volumes/raid -d enable
Make sure you restart the Server afterwards.

What will keep a system from sleeping, other than user activity?

If I'm, say, running a long video transcode, will that prevent automatic sleep, or might sleep kick in anyway in the middle of things and possibly screw them up? I think this may have happened, so I'm considering disabling automatic sleep if it presents this sort of liability. TIA... Mark

Programs actively writing to disk should keep a system from sleeping. That said, I've always turned off sleep on my systems when doing important processing, just to be sure. Some software can pause for significant amounts of time and while they should still be keeping the processor working and so prevent sleep, it's not foolproof, so I err on the side of caution and set my systems not to sleep other than the monitor when they're going to be processing for a while.

Tomcat won't compile jsps if they are in any directory other than root

I'm running a new instance of Tomcat, and can't get a simple jsp file to compile, if it's in any directory other than the root.
The jsp is:
<%@ page import="test.Simple" %>
<%@ page contentType="text/html" language="java" %>
<html>
<body><%=Simple.makeText()%>
</body>
</html>
and the Simple class is:
package test;
import java.util.Random;
public class Simple {
public static String makeText() {
return String.valueOf(new Random().nextInt());
When I place the jsp in the root directory, it works fine.
When I place the jsp in any subfolder (eg: /debug/1b.jsp), I get the following error:
HTTP Status 500 -

I looked into the Tomcat work directory, and it looked as if the jsp was successfully converted to a java file. I'm not sure where to look, as all the settings are defaults.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

:D :D :D...
My friend it'd be great idea if you can find google tutorial on TOMCAT/web application basics
anyways coming back to your problem
whenever,an application is deployed on tomcat a new folder is being created at the following location %CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/ with respect to application name.
Therefore try to maintain an architecture like the one below if you programmin any web application.
%CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/<applicationName>/(place all your .jsp files)
-----------------%CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/<applicationName>/META_INF/(Place your mainfest files & context specific configuration files)
-----------------%CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/<applicationName>/WEB_INF/ (Genrally used to save secured files which cannot be access directly and always make sure you prepare a web.xml file associated to the application)
-----------------%CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/<applicationName>/WEB_INF/lib (place where all your .jar file libraries are being placed)
-----------------%CATILINA_HOME%/webapp/<applicationName>/WEB_INF/classes (place where all your .class,resource files are being placed as the pacakage structure you have choosed in)
If this doesnot work even if you ensuring everything's right.Reading through tutorials & speding time on finding resources by yourself would be a great idea.
I hope there are no hard issue on this. :)

Using a different directory other than /config/domain_name/applications

Is it possible to configure WLS6.1 to use a directory other than "/config/domain_name/applications"
as its default application directory.

Does anyone know if this was fixed, or is it still a problem. Do we really need
to run our applications from within the bea install/config/domain directory?
thanks

With 6.1, I have had some success running with the root directory different

the

Change to directory: c:\EJC61\wlroot

Unfortunately, I recently discovered a problem involving EJB transactions
that could only be resolved when I moved my domain directory back under
the
WL_HOME directory. Basically, I couldn't use transaction=required in
any
but the standard directory setup. I have already sent word of this to
BEA,
but for the time being, I would suggest that you follow the standard
setup
until BEA verifies that they support and have tested alternate directory
setups.

Denying access from hosts other than localhost

I would like to prohibit access to Directory Server from hosts other than the localhost:
I am doing this from Administration Console. On the server node I set the ACI:
(targetattr = "*")(version 3.0; acl "deny_ip"; deny (all) ip!=dirservhost_ip or ip!=127.0.0.1; )
But the access is still allowed. What is wrong?

Running a java program in a directory other than the current directory

How do I run a java program that's located in a directory other than the current directory?
There is a file Test.java in /dir1/subdir1. If my current directory is anywhere other than that directory, say /dir2/subdir2, I can compile Test.java by using:
javac -classpath /dir1/subdir1 /dir1/subdir1/Test.java
But when I try to run it with:
java -classpath /dir1/subdir1 /dir1/subdir1/Test
I get a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: \dir1\subdir1\Test
Any thoughts?

You need to specify just the name of the class you want to run. So java -classpath /dir1/subdir1 Test

My iTunes account is no longer showing my playlists or any of the music I have added from sources other than iTunes.

I discovered that iTunes is no longer showing any of my playlists or music I have added from sources other than iTunes. My iPod, which is a 4th Gen Classic, seems fine and has all of my playlists and music. My question is how do I upload my iPod to iTunes so that I don't lose anything? I have read a lot of posts about people having similar problems and most of them suggest restoring from an old saved file. I have two problems with this approach 1) I do not have a current back-up and 2) it does not seem to work for any of my non-Apple purcahsed music. Does anyone know of an easy way to fix this?

I'd do a "deauthorize all" from a computer you have access to, and then reauthorise the computers you still have access to.
For instructions, see the following document:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization

Is there a way to access 11i from outside other than Self service?

Is there a way to access 11i from outside other than Self service?
I could connect any application from inside the firewall (basically router) and can not access screens from outside. Eventhough port forwarding 80 allows us upto initial screen, it does not go further.
Any workaround/suggestions
Jiltin

Hi Jiltin,
If you can migrate your forms server into Forms Listener Servlet.This will allow you to use forms outside firewall provided atleast one port(assuming yours 80) is open.
Ref to the M.Link Note 201340.1 for how to setup forms listener servlet.

Forwarding proxy requests from ports other than 80

Hi,
Is there a way to forward requests from ports other than 80 to the proxy address? For example, trying to define a rule to forward the requests from port 8080 to proxy_ip...
Best regards,
Emre

Hi Emre,
Have you looked into using ipfilter port redirecting ?
It may depend on your configuration.
/etc/ipf/ipf.conf
pass in quick from any to any port = 8080 keep state
pass out quick from any port = 8080 to any keep state
/etc/ipf/ipnat.conf
rdr <Interface> <hostname or IP> port 8080 -> <hostname or IP> port 8080 tcp

Activating phone bought from source other than Verizon

If I buy a phone from someplace other than Verizon, how do I go about activating it and using it.

First, before buying it, make sure it is a Verizon-branded phone. These are the only phones compatible with Verizon's network. Secondly, make sure to get the ESN from the seller and call Verizon Customer Service to make sure it is CLEAN. Third, after both of these check out, purchase it, and when you receive it, just dial *228 from it and select option 1 (make sure your current phone is OFF for this) Or you can go online to My Verizon and activate it there. If you are going from a non-smartphone to a smartphone, you will need to add the $29.99/month data plan, and vice versa.

That makes no sense at all. The phone doesn't know or care what kind of phone is calling it. There's something else causing this. Contact your carrier.

Jdev Extension Jar put in a directory other than "JDEV_HOME/jdev/extensions

I'm creating new rules for auditing using the Jdeveloper 10.1.3 extension API and enabling using extension framework. Once I created the rule, I placed the 'jar' file in "JDEV_HOME/jdev/extensions/" directory as per the guidelines. It is executing perfectly. But I want to place the jar in my home directory. is it possible?
I mean I place the jar file in my home directory and I will provide classpath in 'extension.xml' file, which is a part of jar file. How can I achieve it?
The 'jar' file contains
a) extension.xml
b) 2 java files
c) one text file.
Here extension.xml mention the link of a rule to the audit framework. I used the
A part of extension.xml file which adds my rule to the framework.

<addin>oracle.test.launcher</addin>
</addins>
</jdeveloper-hook>
</hooks>
I heard that we can do this in different types:
a) In <hooks> tag, we can include the <libraries> tag which mentions the classpath tag and value.
But no where I found the <libraries> tag in google search.
b) In "JDEV_HOME/jdev/extensions/" directory we place a jar file which only contains the 'extension.xml' file and we can specify the class path of the jar file, which contains the remaining three files. is it possible? If so pls. show me the pointers to do this.
Could you pls. suggest me.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
You can install extension jars in your jdevhome extensions directory in addition to the standard OH/jdev/extensions. On platforms other than Windows, this is ~/jdevhome/extensions by default. On Windows and other platforms, the location of the jdevhome directory can be controlled using the environment variable JDEV_USER_DIR.
Adding an extension jar to one of those two locations is usually sufficient to add it to the classpath of JDeveloper. If you have additional non-extension jars you want to add to JDeveloper's classpath, you can do so using the <classpaths> element in extension manifest. This contains <classpath> elements which are relative paths to jars from the location of the extension jar. For example, say you have
~/jdevhome/extensions/my.extension.10.1.3.jar
and you want to include
~/jdevhome/someotherjar.jar
You would use something like this:
<extension ...>
<classpaths>
<classpath>../someotherjar.jar</classpath>
</classpaths>
</extension>Thanks,
Brian

Import photos from source other than iphoto

Is there a way to import photos to imovie from a source other than iphoto or photo booth? I have a cd of pics that i'd like to use but I'd rather not import all the pics to iphoto if I don't have to.
thanks

Wow; I can drag the photos from the Finder directly into my project. I actually tried this, but I tried dragging them into the lower pane with all the source clips. That won't work, but if you drag the photos into the top pane where your edited work is it magically adds the photo(s). Thanks for the tip!
