Questions about system connections

Would someone help me clarify something?
When the ECC QAS system has been copied from the PRD system, the connection between the ECC QAS and the BID system is broken. I was told by Basis that after the copy, the connection has to be restored, and for some reason restoring the connection between the QAS and the BID system, the InfoSources and their transfer rules are completely wipe out from the system.
We are using the business contents and have not yet did the migration.
I am not sure why restoring the connection between the ECC and BID system would cause the InfoSources to de deleted. Has anyone come across this problem? Is it something that Basis can prevent from happening? I have not seen this from BW 3.5.

Hi,
We tried your suggestions but it is still wiping out the InfoSources. We are aware that the broken connection between the ECC and the BI systems will allways occur when we do a copy. Restoing the connection between the ECC and BI systems is causing the wipe out of the InfoSources.
We're asking if anyone has come across this problem and was able to fix it,

Audigy 2 ZS: questions about TAD connect

The drivers for my motherboard?s onboard sound were causing problems, so I replaced the onboard sound with an Audigy 2 ZS card. It is fantastic! I am not having any problems, but there are some questions about its use the answers to which I have not been able to glean from the manual or the online knowledge base. Since my questions involve three different issues, I am making three different posts. I hope this doesn?t violate some kind of posting rule. If it does, I apologize. I certainly will appreciate any help anyone can give me.
I have a USR 2976 voice modem in a PCI slot next to my new Audigy 2 ZS card. The 2976 modem is very common; but since it is OEM, US Robotics? support consists essentially of acknowledging its existence. I would like to make a TAD connection between the sound card and modem in order to use the sound card in a speakerphone setup. The modem has only one side connector and it looks identical to the TAD connector on my Audigy 2ZS, but I don?t know its pinouts. (I found the Audigy card?s TAD pinouts online.) Since my optical dri'ves use digital audio extraction, I don?t need the CD audio cable that went from one optical dri've to the motherboard?s CD sound in connector; and I disconnected it. The CD audio cable fits only one way into both the sound card TAD connector and the modem?s similar 4-pin connector. Would I be safe in connecting the modem and sound card together using the CD audio cable even though I don?t know the modem?s pinouts for its connector? Are most modems consistent in this?
The CD cable is fairly long. I would need only a very sort cable to connect the two adjacent cards, but I have not been able to find a short one. Does anyone know a source or if there is a specific name for a short cable for this purpose? (I have had no luck googling ?TAD cable?.)

BigBen,
I'll answer your questions here point by point (for clarity).
) No, that won't be possible. A line input is only stereo, so all you'll receive signal-wise is just a stereo stream. You'll need a coaxial or optical input to get that signal to the card (only available on the Platinum dri'ves).
2) In theory that could work, yes, the connections are there. That isn't something we would have tested (or support), though.

Question about router connections

Does a wireless router need to be connected to an external modem? My modem is essentially a card in a box on the outside of my house, so connecting to it, other than through a wall outlet, is pretty much out of the question.
My connection goes from wall outlet directly to the ethernet port on my pc...am I even able to connect a wireless router?

The wire that runs from your modem outside, to the outlet on your wall, apparently allows you to connect directly to your modem.
Probably you can simply run a wire from your wall outlet to a wireless router. However, before investing in a wireless router, I would suggest that you verify that this setup will work with your ISP (internet service provider). Also, check your ISP's web site. They have probably already posted directions on how to set up wireless with their system.

Problem\question about System.in and DataInputStream

Hello everybody,
I have the following code, trying to read an int and a string into two variables using System.in and DataInputStream:
package objectIO;
import java.io.*;
public class WriteStudentObject
 * @exception IOException Can not read the file
 public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
 a loop could be used here to create more than one
 student object and write each one to a file
 Student mary = new Student("Mary Martin", 12345);
 // open inputstream to read data from keyboard
 InputStream is = System.in;
 DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
 int g;
 String c;
 for (int i =0; i < mary.grades.length ; i++)
 System.out.println("Enter a grade for test" + i);
 g = dis.readInt(); //*QUESTION 1*
 System.out.println("Enter a comment for test"+i);
 Datainput stream can read String
 and store as text or reverse
 c = dis.readUTF(); //*QUESTION 2*
 mary.grades= new Grade(g,c);
try
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\personal\\test\\studentObject.dat");
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
oos.writeObject(mary); // write obj to file
oos.close();
} catch(IOException e) {
System.out.print("Error: " + e);
System.exit(1);
The class uses a Student object -attributes are name\String, id\int and Grades (Grade class has grade obtained\int and a comment from the teacher\String).
My questions are: (as bolded in the code)
1) at "g = dis.readInt()" I have to press Enter 3 times to finish the reading (one after entering a single int and then just 2 times Enter). Should I add bellow this line "System.in.read()" to clear the newline\return character?! What exactly does "System.in.read()" clears? After leaving the method readInt() the variable g has an enormous value... like 9 digits... why? I also tried "g = (int)dis.readInt()" but the results are the same... I want to read an int from keyboard, but using DataInputStream, not with System.in.read()
2) at this line the program never ends, it tries continuously to read characters... no matter what I enter it does not complete... I want to read a String from keyboard, but again using DataInputStream...
Many thanks in advance (and hopefully now I can assign the offered stars...)

I read an int form keyboard with 'int read_int = System.in.read();' but why I must, after this line, enter a new System.in.read()? (what does this clears? the return character? )Yep. Note that InputStream.read() only reads the next byte of data. If your user had input something that required multiple bytes to represent, you would not have read all of it.
Fun Fact: Even if you had used Scanner.nextInt() to get your integer from the console, you still need to do a .nextLine() as .nextInt() only reads up to the newline and does not consume it.

Questions About Losing Connection

Like other people I've noticed here, my WRTG45 v5 wireless router has recently started losing connection to the net multiple times a day. At first, we thought it was because our modem was old, so we bought a new one, but it didn't fix anything. So here are my questions:
1. My dad seems to think that a configuration or setup CD (that we lost) is required to make the router work with the new modem. Is this true? I don't think so, but I have to ask just so I can get him to move on.
2. I noticed in other posts here that programs like Bittorrent can cause the router to be overworked or whatever. This might explain our problem, as I use Bittorrent a lot (but not everytime the connection has dropped). If this is indeed the problem (or contributing to it), is there anyway to deal with it while still being able to use the program?
For the first couple months, the router was working fine. Even with Bittorrent running a lot, and all the computers (2 wired, 1 wireless, and 1 wired X-Box) engaging in various activities on the net. So this is very puzzling to me.
One more bit of information, I have given every computer a unique, static IP address. However, I noticed recently that when I look at the router configution after typing in its IP address in a web browser, that it is set to DHCP Enabled.
Also, in the advanced TCP/IP settings for this connection, under the WNS tab, the NetBIOS setting is set to the default of using NetBIOS from the DCHP server.
Since I am using static IP addresses, could these DHCP centered settings be causing problems? Although, even if they are, it still doesn't explain why the router was working fine months ago (unless someone changed stuff without my knowing).
Anyway, any help at all would be appreciated.

I assume you meant that you had a WRT54G v5 router.
First of all, the setup CD is not required. All router settings can be made by going to the router's web pages at 192.168.1.1
It is possible that the static LAN IP addresses are causing your problem, if they were not set up correctly. Linksys has a strict set of rules to follow regarding static LAN IP addresses.
With Linksys routers, a fixed (static) LAN IP addresses must be assigned in the device that is using the address. So you need to enter the fixed address in the computer or printer, not in the router.
When using a Linksys router, any fixed LAN IP address must be outside the DHCP server range (typically 192.168.1.100 thru 192.168.1.149), and it cannot end in 0, 1, or 255.
Therefore any fixed LAN IP address would normally need to be in the range of
192.168.1.2      thru 192.168.1.99 or
192.168.1.150 thru 192.168.1.254
assuming you are still using the default DHCP server range.
Also, in the computer, when you set up a static LAN IP address, you would need to set the "Subnet mask" to 255.255.255.0 and the "Default Gateway" to 192.168.1.1
It is also important that no two devices on your network be set to the same static LAN IP address.
Check all of your static LAN IP addresses. If you have violated any of the above rules for static LAN IP addresses, it could be the cause for your problem, and you should fix it before attempting any other router repairs or changes.
You should leave the DHCP server turned on. This way, if you have a visiting friend who you want to connect to your system, it will be easy to do.   Leaving the DHCP server turned on should not cause any problems, even if all your addresses are fixed. In general, you should let the DHCP server assign all addresses, unless there is a specific reason to use a static address. You can mix static and DHCP assigned addresses on the same LAN, as long as you follow the above rules for static addresses.
Linksys routers have had problems when BitTorrent is used. Your router has new firmware posted that should improve compatibility with BitTorrent. It is firmware version 1.02.0   You will need to download and install this firmware (after fixing the static address problem, if any). (Note: When you update your firmware, you should use a computer that is wired to the router. Also, when you do a firmware upgrade, turn off all other computers on your system, and unplug all other wires from the router.) After you have installed the firmware, and powercycled the router, you will need to reset your router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch.

A question about direct connect and getting emails on BB curve 8350i

can someone please help me....I'm new to BB and I just purchased a curve 8350i. First question when I direct connect to someone after i'm done with the call, i always get a message about the call i just did. How do I stop from getting those annoying messages. Second question I have an email set up in my BB. Now everytime I get a email I get a copy in my message icon and my email icon, how do I stop from getting a copy of my email messages. I would appreciate if anyone can anwer my questions...Thank You

1. no idea
2. you can find answers for this all over the forums, it gets asked atleast once a day.
the messages icon is a general incoming icon, all incoming messages go there, only item you can seperate from it are sms & mms texts.
if you use txting, you can seperate sms from the msgs, then hide msgs. use email and sms icons
when you delete your email from email icon it will automatically delete from msgs as well. its not actually 2 emails in 2 locations, its 2 locations pointing to the same email

Question about secuting connection to the database

Hi.
I need to fix an Oracle Consulting custom solution that became incompatible with the new version of the application.
What's the catch:
this solution is basically a SQL*Plus script that resides on the filesystem and performs a bunch of commands to generate and load data from Views.
My difficulty with this is that one of those commands is a CONNECT.
I'm concerned about the security implications of performing an "open connect" via SQL*Plus command like this.
My questions are:
1) Is there a way to secure the SQL*Plus session so that its commands are not visible via a Trace or something else?
2) What's the best way for me to perform that CONNECT command in a secure way, so that the user and password do not become visible?
Thank you.

I do not see the problem.. SQL*Plus is a client like any other client. VB. Java. Delphi.
Such clients will also make use of a connect string to Oracle. In some cases they will prompt for username and password from the end-user - assuming Oracle schema authentication is used. In many cases they will automatically (via an internal hardcoded connect string) connect to an app schema and then use a USERS table to authenticate the end-user (and thus not use Oracle security).
The biggest concern in this case is making this connect string visible. EXEs and DDLs can be dumped and ASCII strings extracted - and with it, potentially hardcoded username and passwords.
In case of a SQL*PLus script, this is in clear text in the actual script itself. But unlike a VB EXE that runs in the wild (on some client PC somewhere), I would assume that in your case this maintenance process runs from a secure o/s account on a server.
In that case, all that is needed to revoke read/write access to that script from all other o/s users on that server.
Of course, this assumes that the actual SQL*Plus script uses the CONNECT command and not the sqlplus command line - as command line switches are visible via process monitors.
Another option is not to use Oracle schema authentication for that maintenance process, but o/s authentication. In which case only that o/s user can logon to that schema and execute code. Thus no username and password to protect as the o/s account itself provides the protection.

Question about System.in, FileoutputStream and blocking

Hello everybody,
I have written a simple java program that read the System.in and append it to file (which is the first argument of the program).
Here is the context: my client launch several instance of this program at the same time, with the same file passed in argument. In a first time, I did not use the FileChannel.lock() method because I didn't know there will be several instance, but this is not the question.
The problem is simple: sometime, I can't figure why (and this is why I'm here to ask you), one of the process block, and stay like this until my client kill it.
So why? It has something to do with the absence of FileChannel.lock()?
My client is on Solaris, don't know which version, with a JDK 1.5.0_04
Here is the code:
InputStream is = System.in;
InputStreamReader ir = new InputStreamReader(is, encodingMode);
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(ir);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(args[0], true);
String lineSeparator = System.getProperty("line.separator");
String buf = null;
while ((buf = reader.readLine()) != null) {
fos.write(buf.concat(lineSeparator).getBytes(encodingMode));
}I think the FileChannel.lock on the output file will solve the problem, but I'm just curious about that odd issue.
Thanks for help, and excuse me for my bad english.

Urgent Question about System Center Server Names and Dashes

Hey guys I have a quick Urgent question that would be awesome if it happens to get answered quickly :).
So in the past we had problems with different server names in components of System Center when setting up different servers.... I never myself saw the errors or what it did, but an absentee colleague did. For example is anything wrong with a name setup like
xx-scom-01 / xx-scom-02 as compared to the standard scom01 scom02? We have a certain naming convention we are moving to and I wanted to see if this was fixed. I wanted to say it had something to do with the hyphens... anyways any foresight anyone can
provide would be awesome. Thanks!

Dashes in the name will work fine.

WiSM Switch - Questions about Client Connections

Hello!
i?m planning a worst case scenario for a customer site. They got a couple of 6500?s with WiSM Modules installed. Now I?m sitting over a instruction of what to do when a WiSM breaks down and I got a few questions regarding the clients.
In the case a Controller stops responding, the AP?s are automatically switched to the secondary Controllers. What happens when the Primary Controller returns - they automatically switch back, right? Is this automatic switch combined with a loss of wireless connectivity? (LWAPP tunnel gets torn down, and a new LWAPP connection must be established - that is basically the same if I restarted the AP, isn?t it? ) If so, how long does it take for the connectivity to return? Is it possible to manually do the switch to a later time (late in the evening..) to minimize the effects for the clients? The Goal is to keep the clients up and running, without termination of the wireless connection - if this is possible.

Also, after checking my WLC's Controller->General config screen, you will find a parameter called "AP Fallback".
It can be either "Enabled" or "disabled" and determines whether or not an access point that lost a primary controller connection automatically returns to service when the primary controller becomes functional again.
I suppose that if you set this parameter to "Disabled" in the secondary controller, before activating the repaired/replaced primary controller that this would also accomplish what you want.
It is not clear if the same setting would also need to be applied to the primary controller. You may need to test this aspect first to be sure.
Presumably, you could then re-enable "AP fallback" when you are ready to force the LWAPs back to the primary.
I hope this helps,
- John

Various questions about System Restore Point

How can I delete old System Restore Points?
Is it possible to move the folder that holds them to a different drive then C:?
Can I limit the amount of data System Restore is allowed to have?
I have downloaded the TreeSize program to see what is using up so much space on my SSD and a folder named "System Volume Information" has 17GB of storage. Now I have found out that this is the folder that keeps System Restore Points and I checked
on my restore points. There are too many of them and I was wondering if I could delete some of the old ones? I read on another post that someone said that you could limit the amount of data System Restore is allowed to use. Is this possible?
Best Regards.

Hello HurricaneHojax,
Here I list the requirement, and please correct me if I have misunderstanding:
1. Delete some System restore point
2. Move the folder that hold system restore data to a different drive then C:.
3. Limit the amount of system restore data.
1, We can delete some system restore point.
For more information, please take a look at the following article.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-hk/windows/delete-restore-point#1TC=windows-7
2,We are not able to move the system restore folder to other Drive.
3, We can limit the amount of system restore data.
For more information, please take a look at the following article about managing the disk space that is used by System Restore.

Question about System Properties?

Can anyone shed some light apon this, if i have my midlet running in the background
i.e. display set to null.... can j2me read the state of the phone system?
Can j2me read any 'system property' like active/idle/keylocked??
..../fg

Well generically the answer is NO.
There is always a chance that some device manufacturer have supplied (if at all) some API to do this. But I am yet to heard about any device in the market to have this. Only what I heard that Nokia is in its way to supply some API like this with there Series 40 3'rd edition phones (ref. http://developers.sun.com/learning/javaoneonline/sessions/2006/TS-4447/index.html?). But they haven't yet announced anything on the release of it.

Uk Mac user. Questions about internet connection please!

I own a Mac G4 800 Mhz tower.
At present connect to the internet via ethernet to router.
The past few days it has been running very slowly.
Checked the Netgear router page where it states the incoming strength is approx 4MB.
*+What can be done to help utillise the incoming speed please?+*
*+What do I need to make the G4 cable free please?+*
*+Is there a 3rd party version of the Airport card (if that is needed) please?+*
Any help and advice gratefully received!

What can be done to help utillise the incoming speed please?
That depends where the slowdown is. The quickest way to cut this problem down to size is to find an Interactive Internet Speed Test online, and run it.
If the measured speed (which is essentially download speed) is way too slow -- you need to complain to your ISP about it, and follow their suggestions.
If the measured speed is reasonable, but your perception is that it is too slow, post information about what situations, using what browsers, are the worst offenders, and readers will take a run at advising you.
I suggest you start a different thread with your inquiry about wireless equipment.

Question about "Easy Connect Naming"

Good evening,
My installation consists of 11gR2 where both host and client are on the same machine.
I wanted to test the "Easy Connect Naming" functionality, to that end, I renamed tnsnames.ora and proceeded to connect using the following command:
sqlplus sys/abc123@"Oracle2Day1.john.local/orcl.john.local:1521" as sysdbaas expected, the command was successful in connecting to the orcl instance.
To ensure that everything was as expected, I also tried:
sqlplus sys/abc123 as sysdbaUnexpectedly, this command also connected to the orcl instance.
I expected it to fail since there is no tnsnames.ora and I did not specify the host and service names.
The question is: why was the command sqlplus sys/abc123 as sysdba" successful given that there is no tnsnames.ora ?
Thank you for your help,
John.

The question is: why was the command sqlplus sys/abc123 as sysdba" successful given that there is no tnsnames.ora ?Above only works when logged directly on to DB server, because this flavor of connection does not use SQL*Net; but uses BEQ protocol.
