Security in 8i (8.1.7.4) Names Server

I've set up an oracle names server with a password attached.
The password is required to stop, restart, reload etc the names but no password is required to fiddle with existing names entries or to create/delete names. Thus, any PC on the network that has net assistant can (and in one case has) make changes to names entries without knowing the password.
Have I missed some configuration open that makes the password apply to names data changes as well as control operations or is the only answer to remove net assistant/namesctl from client PCs?

On Metalink there is a document that describes how to create a secure (read-only) Oracle Names server.
kind regards,
Ivan

Flat file connection: The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid

I'm trying to execute a SSIS package via SQL agent with a flat file source - however it fails with Code: 0xC001401E The file name "\server\share\path\file.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
It appears that the problem is with the rights of the user that's running the package (it's a proxy account). If I use a higher-privelege account (domain admin) to run the package it completes successfully. But this is not a long-term solution, and I can't
see a reason why the user doesn't have rights to the file. The effective permissions of the file and parent folder both give the user full control. The user has full control over the share as well. The user can access the file (copy, etc) outside the SSIS
package.
Running the package manually via DTExec gives me the same error - I've tried 32 and 64bit versions with the same result. But running as a domain admin works correctly every time.
I feel like I've been beating my head against a brick wall on this one... Is there some sort of magic permissions, file or otherwise, that are required to use a flat file target in an SSIS package?

Hi Rossco150,
I have tried to reproduce the issue in my test environment (Windows Server 2012 R2 + SQL Server 2008 R2), however, everything goes well with the permission settings as you mentioned. In my test, the permissions of the folders are set as follows:
\\ServerName\Temp --- Read
\\ServerName\Temp\Source --- No access
\\ServerName\Temp\Source\Flat Files --- Full control
I suspect that your permission settings on the folders are not absolutely as you said above. Could you double check the permission settings on each level of the folder hierarchy? In addition, check the “Execute as user” information from job history to make
sure the job was running in the proxy security context indeed. Which version of SSIS are you using? If possible, I suggest that you install the latest Service Pack for you SQL Server or even install the latest CU patch.

What is the function of "Name Server"?

We have a two server Cluster. Each server runs a SIA Node with a CMS and all of the typical Servers.
On Server1, if I look at the Metrics for any of my Servers (except CMS) it looks like this:
   Machine Name: Server1.domain.com
   Name Server: Server2.domain.com:6400
On Server2, it looks like this (all local):
   Machine Name: Server2.domain.com
   Name Server: Server2.domain.com:6400
I'm trying to understand why the servers on Server1 have a Name Server on the other side of the Cluster. What is this function? Is this correct? Does it have anything to do with where the IFR/OFR is running? Or maybe the sequence on which server starts first?
The CMS Server on both of my Servers uses the Cluster Name for Name Server.

Richard,
If the BO Application is installed on single machine, It could be called standard/standalone installation.
If the BO Application services scattered across the different system then called "Extended/Distributed Environment". When BO applications are scattered different system is referred as a NODE.
I guess your BO Application is deployed on 2 nodes, In order to bind two different BO application systems together SAP has given wonderful concept called clustering.
Cluster will bind 2 or more applications with single (CMS)repository and single IFRS/OFRS destination.
Whenever you install BO Application, it asks you want to standalone installation or you want to join existing cluster.
In your environment. The second machine has got BO installed first and first machine has got installed second while installing second time on first machine it had asked to whether you want to join existing cluster then your BO admin has been given second machine.
Thats why you would able to see second machine nameserver on both machines
Usually the BO Application servers are distributed based on their category.
The BO4 platform mainly categorised as below
1. Web Application tier (Tomcat): Web Application tier is the tier that hosts server side components to handle user requests from Client tier and pass to Intelligence tier of underlying system for processing.
2. Intelligence tier (BO services) is heart of Business Objects Enterprise system. It handles user requests, navigates them to appropriate server, maintain security information, audit information and stores report instances. BOE intelligence layer is composed of Central Management Server (CMS), File Repository Servers and Event Server.
3. Processing tier ( BO services) interacts directly with database and generates reports. Processing layer is composed of Job Servers, Web Intelligence processing servers, Crystal processing servers, Dashboard servers.
As best practices for the better performance, we need to have Distributed deployment( each tier needs to be placed in each server) for better performance.

DNS timeout and Name Server timeout between two DC's

Hi All
My clients have a brand new domain built for them, with two domain controllers at separate sites, and one site is having some issues.
At one site (where DC2 is hosted), all users are having 5-10 minute log on delays - once in everything is running without issues. Site where DC1 is has zero issues - they run smoothly, get a nice quick login etc. All users are using redirected folders and
all have the same GPO's applying to them.
DC1 also has periodic issues communicating with DC2 - nslookup using DC2 gives "DNS request timed out. timeout was 2 seconds" on external AND internal queries, but then 5 minutes later will resolve perfectly. During the "DNS time out"
period, trying to resolve DC2 as a Name Server also gives the error "A timeout occurred during validation".
Not sure if these (slow logon and DNS/NameServer time out issues) issues are related but I am at a loss.
Reverse lookup zones are fully created and populated, entries aren't randomly deleting themselves. Replication between both DC's is working fine, no errors and SYSVOL/NETLOGON are sharing fine from both DC's. Occassionally restarting the DNS server services
on both servers will kick them back into talking - but only for around 30sec-1minute, after that they communicate periodically without problems and spend the rest of the time not resolving.
Any ideas floating around, as I am at a loss here. We haven't been able to join more than a few test users to DC2's site for fear of them all calling every day due to long log on periods.

Hi,
Are you pointing each DC/DNS to the other one as primary dns in tcp/ip properties? Can you post a dcdiag /a /f:dcdiag.log from the DC2?
Any warnings/errors in Application log on the client(s) facing issues after they get logged in ? Can you also confirm that users from site with DC2 are having DC at : set | find /I "LOGONSERVER" output?
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Calin
Hi Calin
The DC's were originally pointing at each other for the primary but others prior to posting here suggested that was not best practice anymore and said they should be the other way around - in any case, either direction doesn't resolve the issues.
The only application error the users are getting is :
The winlogon notification subscriber <SessionEnv> was unavailable to handle a notification event.
The winlogon notification subscriber <GPClient> took 84 second(s) to handle the notification event (Logon)

The users are logging onto NDC1 currently as I did switch around their DNS servers to have DC1 as their primary to test if this resolved the logon times. It didn't so I've switched them back and will re-run the check to see which server is the logonserver.

How to configure trex name server

hi all
while creating index i am getting the error
Index could not be created; creating index failed: TREX Name Server (including back-up servers) is down or not accessable. (Errorcode 7217)
for the above error i need to configure the trex name server using TREX Configuration in the J2EE Engine in j2ee visual administrator .
can any one tell me the clear path that where to configure the above and where j2ee visual administrator installed how to configure the name server
awaiting for replies
regards
ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
In order to access the Visual Administrator, go to Start > Programs > SAP J2EE Engine > Visual Administrator. After you login, you will see 2 nodes i.e. Dispatcher and Server. Expand the Server node. Then go to "Services" and expand it. Then go all the way down to "TREX Service". Then on the right hand side, go to the property "nameserver.address" where you will key in "tcpip://<nameserver>:<port>". Then hit "Update" and click on the "Save" button. Then when you go to TRex Monitor, you should be able to see the Name Server running. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sri

How To Configure TREX Name Server&Port for UDDI Service Registry Settings

Hello Experts,
we are using CE 7.1 SP 4 and I would like to use the trex service in the Service Registry.
I use \NWA\Service Registry Configuration\Service Registry Settings\Keyword Search and want to test the TREX Communication using the Test Connection Button.
If I do so, I receive "Connection to TREX not successful".
When I press the Update TREX button I receive this exception:
com.sapportals.trex.TrexException: TREX Name Server (including back-up servers) is down or not accessable. (Errorcode 7217)
I tried to configure the trex.service with the two parameters: nameserver.address and nameserver.backupserverlist -> tcpip://myhostname.mydomain:30001 (Instance 00).
I am not sure if the port number is correct -> is there a way to lookup the correct port number?
Is there something else I should configure?
Thanks for help, best regards
Thomas

NWDI for the 04s preview fails with 'SLD name-server configuration error'

After the installation, everything seems to work fine except that when I go to CMS, the links on the top seems to be hardcoded to point to http://pwdf3102:50100/dtr, even in the Domain Data. When I tried to change it to my local server, it keeps complaining about "Unexpected error; inform your system administrator: <Localization failed: ResourceBundle='com.sap.cms.util.exception.CMSExceptionMessages', ID='SLD name-server configuration error', Arguments: []> : Can't find resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key SLD name-server configuration error"
Any suggestions on how to work around this? Thanks.

Brian,
Try to import the model file first by going to SLD->Administration->Import CIM Model. If the problem sticks, then try to remove the systems. The preview version has lots of pre-exist system name in the technical system, which you can find giving errors since they're not reachable. So you can remove them from SLD (Home->Technical Systems) if they are preventing you from procceeding.
You need to go to http://server:port/dtr/system-tools/administration/NameServerConfiguration to update the name server as well.
Hope this helps...

Photoshop CS2: name server problem: Is there a solution?

Hi!
I have Photoshop CS2. I can't start the program anymore because of the already well known name server problem... (DEAR ADOBE!! HOW COULD YOU!!! )
Now, what can I do? As far as I know I purchased the software for an unlimited amount of time (thanks to the fact that there weren't any clouds, halleluja!)
Can anybody help me, please? Is there a way "around"?
Thanks a lot!!!

Problem with SCs that created before the Name Server was configured

Hello,
I have created an SC and developed it.
When I created it, the Name Server wasn't configured and because of that, when I created new DC for this SC I needed to write the vendor manually. Lets assume I wrote example.org.
Sometime after I did configured the Name Server and I reserved example.org as a namespace prefix.
When I create new SC and new DCs in it everything is OK: Instead of writing example.org as my vendor I can choose from a combo box between sap.com and my own which is example.org.
The problem arises with the SC that has been developed before the Name server was configured: If I create new DC for it the vendor is shaded with sap.com inside with no option to change it, even though the previous DCs for this SC were created under the vendor example.org (which I entered manually).
I assume I can (with a lot of manual work) create new SC and move the DCs (or only their code) to the newly created SC, where I have the option to choose, but I am looking for more simpler solution. For example, changing a certain configuration file at the SC or so.
Anyone has an idea?
Thank you in advance,
Roy

Unknown User Name(Server) error

Got the following error message in Fabric Manager "Unknown User Name(Server)". Any clues to what it might mean?
Cheers.

It means 1 of 2 things. That there was a timeout before FM could discover that switch or that username/password is not correct for that switch. If this is local authentication, then reset the password for the snmp user you are using to login to this switch. Is this one of many switches and the other ones are accessible?

Speed internet browsing via a local domain name server

Is it possible with leopard to create a local DNS to speed up browsing on the internet on Leopard? If so, how do you go about it?

Hi Uday,
I have eventually managed to install minisap - I installed MaxDB to answer your question.
I unchecked a checkbox that was asking for a FQDN and then the domain name server is no longer mandatory.
However, when trying to run webdynpro applications I now get a shortdump that shows a CX_FQDN exception. It says:
An exception occurred which is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_FQDN', was not caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
Die URL enthält keine vollständige Domainangabe (john-pc statt
john-pc.).
I don't understand the German, but john-pc is my computer name and I was prompted during the installation to replace localhost in my host file with this.
The url of the webdynpro application includes this, for example:
http://john-pc:8000/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/z_hello_world
Would you know how I now resolve this?
Many thanks,
John

Hi.
I am having the same error, i already check the monitor and it shows the same error:
Error during search occurred - com.sapportals.wcm.WcmException: TREX Name Server (including back-up servers) is down or not accessable. (Errorcode 7217).
There are two machines accessing TRX and one is working fine the other one does not. I made a ping from epweb to trx and does not respond. If i make de ping from epprd to trx it responds fine. What can i do?.
TRX is up and working fine.
Thanks for the help.
