Q Thin Client with WES 7/8 virtual licensing

Dear Support,
Could you help us, do we need a VDA or SA if we will use
Thin Client PC with Windows Embedded Standard 7/8?
Thank you.

Thanks man for the information.
Answers from microsoft are not really direct from the point.
VDA, Software Assurance and Windows Embedded Thin Clients
If you use Microsoft Software Assurance and you have a Windows Embedded Thin Client (Windows Embedded 7/Windows Embedded 8), then you can now move this into your SA, thus negating the need for VDA licensing. This means the total acquisition cost is potentially
lower than equivalent PC’s and even Linux based Thin Clients or Zero Clients due to the Annual Charge of VDA.

I need to deploy a solution with thin clients and dynamic vlans (802.1x). All switches are catalyst 3560 and superior
Can I do this using only de ACS? Will it work?
Thank you

Hi,
Dynamic Vlan assignment can be configure on the ACS.
Please see the configuration example on the link below, this configuration example is for WLC but the ACS configuration is the same.

Image Capture Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES 7) HP Thin Client

Running HP t5740e WES 7 Thin clients. I am working on capturing our standard WES 7 image with SCCM to push out to all new terminals. I followed the HP & MS documentation on creating my Capture media USB drive. I log onto the Thin
client with local administrator, and browse to the location on the drive to run tsmbautorun.exe. The wizard runs, and as soon as I click finish I see disk activity for about 5-10 minutes, system does not restart. I have taken the WES image down
to bare OS, tried running the .exe from cmd line, nothing seems to get it to reboot. After 10-15 minutes, we reboot the terminal and it goes through the sysprep wizard to configure the system. We tried the same USB media on a Windows 7 laptop,
and it performs as expected. The system rebooted itself, and started the SCCM capture. Looking at the C: drive after hitting Finish, I see the disk space go down about 500MB, but the drive still has over 1GB free. Can anyone shed
some light on getting this to work? Thanks in advance.

Font Smoothing CE 6.0 Thin Clients

We need to handle Font Smoothing on HP Thin Clients. This is supported on newer Thin Clients with RDP7 and Font Smoothing settings.
Older Win CE 6.0 do not appear to support Font Smoothing.
Is there a way to set up Font Smoothothing or can these thin clients be updated with RDP option to support Font Smoothing?
Thanks Lex

I too had the same problem just last night. It happened when I was changing the font and font size. It seemed that everytime I switched the font and font size, the text got more and more pixelated and less smooth (identical to the screenshot you just posted).
I backed up my Torch, did a security wipe and then restored the backup file back onto the device. That didn't work, as the text still looked horrible.
So what I did next was do a device switch from my Torch back onto my Bold 9000, security wiped the Torch then did a device switch from the Bold 9000 back onto the Torch and the text was back to normal! It was a long process but it seemed to do the trick. So if you have another BlackBerry sitting around it might be worth trying, just remember to back up your Torch before hand.
My Torch is also running v6.0.0.246, Platform 6.4.0.105 through Rogers. Hope this helps you out.
Good Luck!

Synchronising 6210 Classic through Thin Clients an...

Hi all,
I have serveral users needing to sync phones. Our current setup seems to be playing havoc with PC Suite.
The phones plug in via USB cable into HP t5730 thin clients with XPe. From here they log directly into HP bc2000 blade PC's. The blades are running XPP SP2 with HP RGS V5.1.6 sitting between blade and thin client. (Still waiting on HP to tell us how to upgrade to v5.2)
USB passthrough is working fine with all other devices. I.e - every other USB device that has ever been plugged into one of our thin clients have worked fine (e.g. blackberry).
PC Suite knows that the phone is there, sees it properly etc. However as soon as you ask it to actually interact with the phone, nothing happens. It asks you to plug one in - even though it tells you one is there.
This happens for anything that PC suite would need to contact the phone for. After it does initial handshake, its like it just stops.
I have installed v7.1.18.0 and am having no luck.
Please help before our users hunt us down and burn us at the stake!

I have loaded up V 7.1.30.9 and have had no success. I have tried different phones, (same model) on different machines and have ruled all of that out.
HP have said that the RGS protocol works simply as a passthrough, and all information given to either the blade or the thin client is 100% passed through to the other.
The only thing left to look at is PC suite.
Any ideas?

Wyse Thin client not connecting to Windows 2008 R2 server

Configuration
SBS 2011 Server
Windows 2008 R2 server with Remote Desktop Services installed, License Manager installed.
WYSE WT3125SE thin clients with Windows CE 5
I setup the Windows 2008 with Remote Desktop Services and was able to successfully connect the Thin client. Then I installed the License Manger and applied my Open license using User Cals. Was able to login. Next day I get the following
error-"Because of a security error, the client could not connect to the remote computer. Verify that you are logged onto the network and then try connecting again" I still can connect fine from other machines even Windows Home Ed.
I remove license server and still was unable to connect. Built a second Windows 2008 R2 server with RDS on it. Was able to connect without issue. Pointed it to the first RDS server license manager and have still been able to connect with
the Thin Client. The thin client can rdp to the SBS server without issue in admin mode, can connect to RDS2 server but not RDS1 with the license manger. So my issue is with the license and so my question is what is it with the license server
running on that server that is keeping thin client from connecting. I even did a reload of RDS1 and tested connecting throughout the process and it worked up until I applied the license and then it stops. And then if I uninstall the license, rds, remove
from domain still not able to connect. Any help would be appreciated.

We had the same problem with older terminals after cloning a 2008R2 rds server and sysprep it.
The original rds server worked fine but when the old terminals connect to the new 1 they come up with the error : Because
of a security error, the client could not connect to the remote computer. Verify that you are logged onto the network and then try connecting again"
After reading all of the postings about this issue and tried the reactivate solution of the license server,
I was sure that it had something to do with the x509 certificates that are generated the first time you connect to a valid license server.
What I did, I installed a new license server activate it but did not install licenses on it.
I pointed the defective rds server to the newly installed license server and deleted the following registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM
Certificate
X509 Certificate
X509 Certificate ID
X509 Certificate2
Then reboot.
After the reboot all old terminals can connect fine again. As final step I pointed the rds server to the same license server as the other ones,
reboot and all worked fine.
So conclusion is that when you pont a rds server to a license server that has the new type of licenses on it it will generate the wrong x509 certificates
that are not supported by the older clients, by pointing it first to 1 without any rds calls on it, it generates the older x509 certificates which are compatible with the older rdp clients then the switch to new license server will then not regenerate the
x509 certs so it keeps working.
I hope this helps someone
This issue was driving me crazy so very happy that it is resolved now
Cheers Frits

Connect A scanner to Wyse 3290 Thin Client

I am 'trying' to connect an Epson Gt-S50 scanner to a Wyse (Dell) 3290 Thin Client with an embedded WIN 7 Standard OS. I've finally gotten the drivers installed and the device managers see the scanner. although I can get paper to feed through the scanner, nothing appears to scan not can i set any configurations for the sacnner. Destination, type, preview.etc. The Epson Software has been downloaded directly from Epson but each time i attempt to launch the app, i get 'Epson Scanner has stopped working'.
has anyone been successful with this? Even the second level engineer at Dell has not been able to figure it out.

JMS thin client application

          I am developing a JMS thin client application hosted on a seperate UNIX box than
          the JMS server which is provided by a third party.
          Are wljmsclient.jar and wlclient.jar files from BEA Weblogic workshop 8.1 the
          only JMS API
          that I need for my JMS thin client application?
          Is there any licensing fees for using these two jar files to build JMS thin client
          applications?
          Thanks

          Yes, unless you are using WorkShop WebService APIs. I'm not
          sure if you need more (post to work-shop newsgroups to find out).

Issue with non-english application in thin client - virtual directory issue

Hi,
I have just completed Siebel 8 installation on solaris machine along with SunOne Web server 6.1.
I have installed both ENU and ARA language packs for Siebe Enterprise, Sweapps.
The issue is after installation and repository installation for both ENU and ARA, I am able to open only ENU applications in thin client.
When I try to open the ARa applications the browser gives "Page not found" error.
I have verified first, whether the Siebel components running or not. Confirmed that for example for Callcenter SCCObjMgr_ara component is active and online.
But what I observed is, in SUNOne web server instance's config folder, there is a file obj.conf.
In this file there are entries for only enu applications like,
NameTrans fn="pfx2dir" from="/callcenter_enu" dir="/siebelapp/sweapp/public/enu"
There are no links for ARA applications.
I think this could be the reason for issue.
But while installing and configuring sweapps, I have selected the logical profile location as "/siebelapp/gtwysrvr/admin/Webserver".
So this should create such links in obj.conf for ARA as it created for ENU apps. But it didn't happend.
Please advise, how to get the ARA applications.
Thanks
Vamshi

I see some message about a proxy. Have you checked that you can use the proxy from you network?
If not you should turn the proxy off.

Database connection encryption and integrity with ColdFusion and Oracle thin client

As ColdFusion datasource we are using the Oracle thin client to connect with the database. So, basically we are using a JDBC URL such as jdbc:oracle:thin:@... and as Driver Class oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver. This works successfully however we would like to set encryption and integrity parameters as well. In Java this is done similarly by setting a Properties object prior to getting a connection as follows:
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("oracle.net.encryption_client", "REQUIRED");
prop.put("oracle.net.encryption_types_client", "( DES40 )");
prop.put("oracle.net.crypto_checksum_client", "REQUESTED");
prop.put("oracle.net.crypto_checksum_types_client", "( MD5 )");
OracleDataSource ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setProperties(prop);
ods.setURL("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:main");
Connection conn = ods.getConnection();
Is there a way that I can pass these parameters to the ColdFusion datasource. Ideally, I would love to do this centrally in such way that a change to all the cfquery or cfstoredproc is not needed.
I also know that in application servers such as Oracle AS there is an option when creating a datasource which says "Add Properties". In there you can add such properties. So, I was thinking of maybe creating a JNDI DS in the app. server and then magically connecting to it but this may have some impacts on the app.
Besides this I was also thinking of communicating with the CF datasource through the CF admin API (cfide.adminapi.administrator) and also the option of extending the Oracle driver so that when CF connects with it these params are already set.
I would love to have your professional opinion and suggestions on this.

I believe the thin driver actually needs the IP address (not the DNS name). Also, is "java" the name of the Oracle instance to which you are trying to connect?
Try the following:String driver = "jdbc:oracle:thin";
String dbIP = "W2RZ1NXG01's IP address";
String dbPort = "1530";
String dbSid = "java";
String dbUser = "Admin";
String dbPswd = "apassword";
String cnctStr = driver + ":@" + dbIP + ":" + port + ":" + dbSid;
try
    Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
    con = DriverManager.getConnection( cnctStr, dbUser, dbPswd );
    stmt = con.createStatement();
    stmt.executeUpdate(createString);
    stmt.close();
    con.close();
catch(SQLException ex)
    System.err.println( "The following SQLException occurred: " + ex );
    System.err.println( "Message: " + ex.getMessage() );

ASO - checksum fail with JDBC thin client on Windows

I'm trying to configure Oracle Advanced Security for SQL Developer. I'm using SQL Developer 1.5.1 (downloaded with the included JDK). When configuring the connection I select Connection Type: Advanced. My JDBC URL is:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=hostname.com)(port=1234))(connect_data=(service_name=DVLP)(SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT=REQUESTED)(SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT=AES256)(SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT=REQUESTED)(SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT=MD5)))
This works great in Linux. But on a fully patched Windows XP machine when I try to connect I get "Io exception: Checksum fail Vendor code 17002"
Note that this is only a problem with the thin client. If I use the OCI client (jdbc:oracle:oci:@....) it works fine.
Also note that the db to which I'm trying to connect is a 10g database with these sqlnet.ora parameters:
#ASO Encryption
sqlnet.encryption_server=required
sqlnet.encryption_client=required
sqlnet.encryption_types_server=(AES256,3DES168,3DES112)
sqlnet.encryption_types_client=(AES256,3DES168,3DES112)
#ASO Checksum
sqlnet.crypto_checksum_server=requested
sqlnet.crypto_checksum_client=requested
sqlnet.crypto_checksum_types_server = (MD5)
sqlnet.crypto_checksum_types_client = (MD5)
SQLNET.INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LSNR1251=120
# Require clients to be Oracle 10g or higher
SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION = 10
Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks for your help!

As a test I created a simple Java program to connect to the db. I used the same ojdbc5.jar that is shipped with sql developer. My test program ran fine. So it would seem the problem is SQL Developer specific.
The class:
import java.sql.*;
public class testJDBC_ASO {
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {
DriverManager.registerDriver (new oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver());
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:oracle:thin:@(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=hostname.com)(port=1234))(connect_data=(service_name=DVLP)(SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT=REQUESTED)(SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT=AES256)(SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT=REQUESTED)(SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT=MD5)))",
"username", "password");
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery("select BANNER from SYS.V_$VERSION");
while (rset.next())
System.out.println (rset.getString(1)); /
stmt.close();
The output:
C:>java -cp ojdbc5.jar;. testJDBC_ASO

How to use authid with rwservlet via WebLogic Thin Client

1. Using J2EE Thin Client for WebLogic (WL) to submit interactive requests for Oracle Reports (App Server 10g) running on another server without SSO.
2. After starting basic Infrastructure, we start rwserver in batch mode (no other mid-tier components are used).
3. It appears that the cgicmd.dat file in the Thin Client conf directory on the WL server controls the DB access with the key:connect string info it has.
4. We had been allowing the testers to come in via the web through a SunOne (iPlanet/Netscape) web server instance, which in turn connects to the WL server running the Thin Client instance.
5. We noticed that anyone could run rwservlet to view report status with the showjobs command via a URL through the same mechanism as point #4 above, and were concerned about security of the reports - "bad".
6. Then someone realized the showmap command could also be specified, and thus see the DB connect string (Id/pw/SID) - "worse".
I researched securing Reports, and read through the white paper, "Securing Oracle9i Reports", and although it discusses security without using SSO, all it says is "users accessing a secured instance of Oracle9iAS Reports Services will be challenged to identify themselves by the Reports Servlet, using its own authentication mechanism (as with Reports6i)", but I can find no explanation of how that works, nor how it would work with the WL Thin Client.
Questions:
1. How are the Id's/passwords set up under AS 10g "as with Reports6i" in this environment going through the WL Thin Client?
2. Is there anything else that needs to be done to secure the created reports, and the connect string info (i.e. using authid with rwservlet?showjob, and not allowing the rwservlet?showmap to be executed at all)?
TIA,
ROC

the JDBC Developer's Guide (11gR2)
gives an example in chapter 9 under "JDBC Thin Driver Support for Encryption and Integrity", sub- "Setting Encryption and Integrity Parameters in Java"
from Oracle SQL Devloper, without redirecting the client to use the OCI/thick driver, choose, new database connection, connection type Advanced. add the entry from the example noted above to the Custom JDBC URL form.
for example:
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.setProperty(OracleConnection.CONNECTION_PROPERTY_THIN_NET_ENCRYPTION_LEVEL,"REQUIRED");
prop.setProperty(OracleConnection.CONNECTION_PROPERTY_THIN_NET_ENCRYPTION_TYPES,"(AES128)");
OracleDataSource ods = new OracleDataSource(); ods.setProperties(prop); ods.setURL(jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=xxxx)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=xxxx)(INSTANCE_NAME=xxxx))));
Connection conn = ods.getConnection();
strange side note!, we could not get this to encrypt unless the sqlnet.ora file included the SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER=required. if this was set to default(accepted), and even though the jdbc thin client properties set to required, the network traffic was still clear text.
good luck

Cx_Oracle dosen't work with Thin Client

Is there an alternative to the Fat- & Thin-Client installation to get cx_Oracle running.
I would like to tell my custommersomething like "install Addon XY in addition to the Thin-Client akording to the Oracle Vresion you are using."
I Know of the possibility to enhance a Thin-Clinet installation by copying certain files and folders from the server.
But our Application should work for manny custommers, with different Oracle-Versions. And we just can't expect a DBA
to let him do all needed Steps to get cx_oracle running.
Anny Idea?
Thanks

AFAIK with the same cx_Oracle's source code you can build versions for different oracle's clients (at least in my experience it always asked me my $ORACLE_HOME and $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the setup.py handles different oracle's version). It might work with 9i, 10g and 11g (I wouldn't risk to talk about 8i).
Besides that Oracle instant client is free to distribute (see here) so you can bundle it with your code. I can imagine it would be pretty easy to build it in *unix although I'm not sure bout Windows -for lack of experience with that particular OS-.
