Remote login to customer system (SM59)

Hi All!
The situation is as follows: We use our Solman with Service Desk, Change management and System monitoring for our customers.
RFC destinations to the customer's systems are created in SM59 (e.g. SM_xxxx_LOGIN). Now, I would like to know what the preferences are for using the remote login button. The connection test is working fine; destination is maintained and the "login screen" option is activated. However, when I press the "remote login" button nothing happens.
Note: we do not want to maintain the logon data in the destination, instead we prefer showing the login screen where the user can enter the login data (after call back with the customer).
So, any ideas?
regards,
Richard

The reason for that is the fact, that the user type SM_* is a communication user only, it's not meant to be used for an interactive logon.

Don't use SM59 to access remote systems, use an entry in the SAPLogon

[SOLVED] Does my system allow remote login through SSH?

I installed openssh some time ago, to be able to connect to my phone's storage (phone is the server). I didn't configure anything, just installed the package and connected to my phone using nautilus. Now I'm wondering, is my computer a ssh server now? Because I don't want remote login to my computer at all. The documentation is a little confusing for me on this one.

No, that is just showing the grep process... I fit was running, you'd get

SM59, Remote Login

Hello,
I'm trying to connect two NetWeaver 2004s. I configured a new RFC-Connection. The connection test works fine. But I cannot execute a Remote Login. It just does not happen anything, when I press the button "Remote login".
I'm looking for a solution since many days, and I don't find any solution.
Any idea?
Regards,
Tommaso

Hi,
"The connection test works fine. But I cannot execute a Remote Login. It just does not happen anything, when I press the button "Remote login"."
that means the type of the user you are using is either a communication or system user.
If you want a remote login to happen it should be either a dialog user or a service user.

System preferences remote login address naming HELP PLEASE

Hello,
This problem is driving me crazy... Enabling Remote Login (under Sharing Preferences) gives me a note that "To log in to this computer remotely, type ssh [email protected]". The problem is the part of the address named "wrongname". I have no idea where it is picking this up. I've gone back under the networking preferences and confirmed it's not coming from there. The netbios name by the way is "CARLS-MACBKPRO1". Enabling file sharing gives me the same "wrongname". Any idea where this is coming from and how do I fix it?
Running 10.7.3 on a Macbook Pro.
Thanks in advance.
Carl

The question is how are you trying to connect to the server? and where are you testing from?
You say you can 'log-in to the Mac-Mini from the internal network', but what protocol are you using?
The ports you've opened are for web (80), FTP (21) and SSH (22), so if you're using any other protocol (e.g. AFP for file sharing), it won't work.
So, you need to decide what protocol you want to use and forward the appropriate ports. For example, if you do want to use AFP to transfer files, you'll need to open port 548.
An alternative is to just use port 22 and use SSH tunneling to tunnel other protocols over a secure connection (normal AFP, web, etc. traffic is not secure and tunneling these protocols over an SSH connection provides an enhanced level of security.

Starting a remote login through ABAP

Hello!
First of all, I am a beginner in ABAP :).
Now the question - I have registered a remote R/3 system in SM59 and the remote login works. Is it now possible to start the remote login for that particular system through an ABAP program? If so how do I do it?
Any links to tutorials, articles or code examples will also of course be helpful..
Bye!

Open a UNIX terminal (with a remote login session) on JButton click

All,
-- The domain of this problem blurs the line which decides if this question has to be posed on a Java swing audience or a UNIX forum. To understand this problem apart from being a Java swing person, you would also need to have a basic understanding of UNIX concepts such as gnome-terminal, xterm and rsh --
I am creating a network monitoring GUI which has a JTable having many entries that pertains to various system information about nodes in a network. I have overridden the default cellEditor in the table with a custom TableCellEditor (camickr's archive) and have a column containing JButtons labelled with hostnames.
Now, when a user clicks on any of these buttons, I would like to open up a terminal (xterm or /usr/bin/gnome-terminal) followed by executing some commands on this NEW terminal shell. In other words, I would like to automate this process as if the user opens a terminal and then keys in commands to rsh into the remote host by specifying the hostname (which is the label on the JButton) and finally provide the user with this state, from where on she takes control on that remote login session.
I tried searching through various previous posts. I did find a related one:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5180094&messageID=9699614#9699614
But I still have difficulty in getting my problem solved.
The following statements are executed when one such button (labelled by a hostname) is clicked:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
         String hostname = e.getActionCommand();
            fireEditingStopped();
            System.out.println( "probing: " + hostname); //This appears correctly on the console
            Process p;
               try {
                    p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/usr/bin/gnome-terminal");
                    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
                    BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(p.getOutputStream()));
                                out.write("rsh -l root "+hostname); //attempting to remote login in the NEW shell (terminal)..... I guess :|
               } catch (IOException e1) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                    e1.printStackTrace();
.I guess I am not having control on the new terminal. Is there any way I could control the newly spawned shell?
Appreciate,
Rajiv

Alright...
assuming gnome-terminal is in /usr/bin path,
/usr/bin/gnome-terminal -e "<command>"
would solve this problem

After Clean Install of Yosemite, Screen Sharing & Remote Login are turned on in Sharing preferences

Do you guys know if this is a bug?
I created a custom USB Yosemite installer using the 'createinstallmedia' binary inside the Yosemite installer.
Booted iMac with this USB installer and proceeded to install Yosemite (fresh formatted drive). No problems.
When I log in however, and check the Sharing PreferencePane, both Screen Sharing and Remote Login are turned on.
I've tried this multiple times (repartitioning the drive each time and I have created the installer media twice).
I'm posting this I guess more as a report as the solution is simple enough (uncheck these services).
But it's definitely a security risk.

Just 2 minutes before I received your reply I solved the problem. I have been running a software firewall (DoorStop X) on the Mac Pro. It turns out that I had not allowed traffic over two ports necessary for Home Sharing– port 3689 and udp port 5353. When I corrected this everything is back to normal.
I did the clean install because I've been having intermittent problems with several apps including Compressor, Safari, and to a lesser extent FCP. I've been contemplating doing this for several months because of all the garbage that has collected on my system over several years since I last started from scratch. I have a bad habit of installing things that add kext files and otherwise modify the OS. I decided to get rid of all that stuff. I'm glad I did. All the problems I was having seem to have resolved. Safari runs 3x faster than it ever has. And I no longer have the headaches that Compressor was giving me. I think I'll take better care of my system from now on.

Client copy,customer systems

The delivery class controls the transport of table data when installing or upgrading, in a client copy and when transporting between customer systems. The delivery class is also used in the extended table maintenance. what is client copy and customer systems?

2 possibilities:
client export/import: tcode SCC8 (then important transport with STMS)
remote client copy: SCC9 (after creating RFC connection through SM59)

Automatic Remote login

hi guys,
I created RFC connection using SM59, and used for remote login. Each time it asks for Userid and password.
I have already set the userid/password under logon, and saved at Sm59.
But still it ask me the password. so could you please tell me how to overcome this problem.
Thanks

Screen Sharing and Remote Login suddenly stopped working

I have had Screen Sharing and Remote Login turned on on my iMac for several weeks and they have been working fine up until now. I have been accessing the computer via VNC programs and command-line ssh logins from other computers on the same local network. When I tried to connect today, i was given the following error message.
ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: No route to host
I have all of the required settings turned on in System preferences and there are no firewalls or router settings blocking it. I connected the two computers together via ethernet cable and the error message still occurred.
I can ssh from the machine to 127.0.0.1, so the ssh server is running. I can ssh to other locations from the laptop i am attempting to connect with, so that's not the problem either. I just spent an hour on the phone with the apple tech support line and they couldn't figure anything out either. Can anybody figure something out?

have you tried the obvious - restarting the computers involved and the router?

Remote login in SM51 Fails / ECC 6.0 / HP-UX / Oracle 10

Hi All,
We had a cluster, 4 physical servers / 14 SAP Instances / HP-UX - Oracle 10G / ECC 6 EHP 3.
Basically we have a general RFC problem in the system. You can reproduce it simply in transaction sm51: In most of the instances whenever you try to change to an instance that has the same instance number than the one you are logged on at this moment, you will come back to this instance, e.g.:
you are logged on at host1_SID_01, start sm51 and try to change to the instances:
host2_SID_01,
host3_SID_01 or
host4_SID_01
(or you try to display the system log or other). You will see (System - Status) that you don't change to these instances but will stay on host1_SID_01.
We found the SAP Note 662895 - Remote login using SM51 Fails. In this note they refer to the error: "Transaction termination 14 025".
Now we have this error (we upgraded from SAP 46C with another error in sm21).
The problem is that we really donu2019t understand exactly what they want to do in the SAP Note 662895:
Summary
Symptom
Remote login in SM51 by double-clicking R/3 instances fails
Solution
You can use transaction SM51 to log in to another application server using RFC, without entering a password. Server "A"
Server "A"                                          Server "B"
        <--Remote logon via RFC   <--
GUI
      sm51
Double-click on the server B entry --->
If host name "B" was entered on server "A" as the gw/alternative_hostnames profile parameter, the local SAP gateway from server "A" is used when you log on to server "B". This results in the syslog message "Transaction termination 14 025".
The same error occurs if you try to open a new external mode on server "A".
Who is the origin server? Host A? Host B? In fact sometimes you can go from A to B and vice versa. So changing the gw/alternative_hostnames parameter doesn't appear to be a solution.
I would appreciate some tips about this Note / Problem.
Best Regards,
Erick Ilarraza

Hello, thanks a lot for your replyes.
Abhijeet Siras, the command /etc/ping <host> works prefectly.
Sergo,
Exactly we have 3 host each one with 4 dialog instances. 1 host with 2 dialog instances and one host with the central instance.
Not all instances have this problem, only the following combination:
     Origin                     Destination
host4_SID_01    - >     host1_SID_01
host2_SID_03    - >      host3_SID_03
host1_SID_01    --> host3_SID_01
host1_SID_02   -->     host3_SID_02
host1_SID_03   -->     host3_SID_03
host1_SID_04   -->     host3_SID_04
host2_SID_01   -->     host3_SID_01
host2_SID_02 -->     host3_SID_02
host2_SID_03 -->     host3_SID_03
host2_SID_04 -->     host1_SID_04
host2_SID_04 -->     host3_SID_04
host3_SID_04 -->     host1_SID_04
host4_SID_01 -->     host1_SID_01
host4_SID_02 -->     host1_SID_02
host4_SID_02 -->     host2_SID_02
host4_SID_02 -->     host3_SID_02
The problem is between *_NUMBER to *_NUMBER!
For example from Dialog Instance 3 running on host 2 to Dialog Instance 3 running on host 3
For example host4_SID_01 means the Dialog Instance 1 running on host 4.
Best Regards,
Erick Ilarraza

What is the best way to remotely login to another Mac?

My mother & I recently decided to take the plunge from the PC world to Apple world. I have an MBP w/ OS X 10.8.2, and she has the same w/o the recent OS upgrade (10.7.?). While we're both still at the bottom of the learning curve, I'm a little further ahead and am constantly running over to her place to trouble shoot/assist her with the transition. I've been researching ways to remotely login to her computer and am now more confused than when I started. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I basically want to be able to login to her system and takeover as if I were on site. And, while I don't know if my research, thus far, has brought me any closer to a solution, it has raised a few questions:
1) Do I simply want to go with 3rd party sofware like Logmein and will the free versions be sufficient or are they just trial offers?
2) Or is ARD my best option and am I right in assuming we'd each have to pony up the $80 for installs on both MBPs?
3) Some of the discussions talk about much more expensive ARD fees with multiple licenses. Am I correct in assuming these are meant for network administrators and wouldn't be necessary for my purposes?
4) I noticed a free VCN version available from the App Store but came accross posts which seem to indicate possible security issues. Are these valid concerns and does ARD address them?
5) Will I run into problems because we're using different OSs?
6) I attempted to follow instructions for an "ssh" remote login that I found by doing a search of 'remote login' under the Apple Support. But when a password was requested, I didn't seem to be able to enter one into the command line. Again, I'm new to Macs, but the cursor didn't move when I entered characters, so I was left wondering whether characters were being entered or whether this is Appple's '*****' feature used to guard passwords. Either way, after 3 attempts, my efforts were repeatedly terminated. Unfortunately, I'm not even sure I was entering a valid password as the article I'm referring to didn't specify how to set a password. I used a VCN password I had set up under the Remote Management option in the Sharing utility under System Preferences. I'm assuming this was the password they were looking for but couldn't be 100% sure as the instructions I followed were not related to "ssh" logins nor were they from Apple Suppot. Anyway, is this "ssh" login worth pursuing and does it function independently or does it only work in conjuction with ARD? If it is a stand alone solution, where can I go for better guidance? The Apple Support link I used was: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1112.
7) Being recovering Windows users, we both have MS Office for Mac 2011 which has MS's Remote Desktop Connection app. But from reviewing a few posts, it looks like that comes with it's own set of issues. It also kind of defeats the purpose as I'm trying to wien myself off of MS. But if someone out there has experience and suggests this as the "ultimate" solution, I'm willing to listen.
I know I've babbled on quite a bit and I don't actually expect anyone to take the time to answer all of my questions. But I'm hoping I might get a collective answer, and more importatnly, I'm really hoping to narrow the field and get generally guidance on the best Mac-to-Mac remote login solution. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Is there a way to access remote login and screen sharing logs?

I have a very high suspicion that my macbook air has been accessed through remote login. Here's what happened. I closed my macbook air, letting it sleep, and left my house. After coming back I found it logged into the Guest account (which I didn't know was enabled). Remote login, Remote sharing and file sharing were enabled but I disabled them. I can't remember enabling them but maybe I did.
I am also on a local network with about 8 other devices connected. I looked through /private/var/log/system.log but couldn't find anything concrete. I have yet to log out of the guest account and have connected to another internet connection just to be on the safe side.
My other user account is passworded and I could switch back to it from guest.
So if my macbook was accessed through remote login, is there a way to tell from what IP address it came from?
Please help me get to the bottom of this.

May 20 13:03:44 XXXXXXXX-MacBook-Air.local loginwindow[51]: ERROR | ScreensharingLoginNotification | Failed sending message to screen sharing GetScreensharingPort, err: 1102

May 20 19:11:14 XXXXXXXXXXX-MacBook-Air.local loginwindow[51]: ERROR | ScreensharingLoginNotification | Failed sending message to screen sharing GetScreensharingPort, err: 1102
I guess if it did happen it would have said so. Thanks anyway.

Hi,
i found a similar problem when we changed the sys password of a living instance of Oracle. First of all, check that the password you are typing is correct (with the pwDBNAME file). Toad saved the password? If you can see an error message restarting the db if you have a problem on this file. If you can perform all test on teh server avoiding to use the server string but just setting the SID. Are you sure that the server string points to the right db?
Hope this helps
