How can I edit /etc/mnttab file of a running Solaris 10 Machine?

Hi All,
How can I edit /etc/mnttab file of a running Solaris 10 Machine?
Any ideas, solution, suggestions.
Regards,
Rahul.

Hello Roach,
First, thanks for your quick response.
I am using a Solaris 10 (Sparc ) machine , I want to make sure that no set uid programs get executed in /tmp partition.
Currently I am modifying the value in /etc/vfstab to and adding the value in Mount Options as nosetuid, and restarting the system as a result when the system is rebooted the /etc/mnttab entry is populated accordingly and setuid programs are not executed in /tmp partition.
But I want to avoid the reboot.
I am planning to update the /etc/vfstab as well as /etc/mnttab file directly so that the reboot can be avoided.
I found some function related to /etc/mnttab i.e
(i)getmntent
(ii)resetmnttab
I will go into more details about it now
Regards,
Rahul.

Which localhost line shuold be used in the /etc/hosts file on Solaris Sparc

JThe format for the hosts file is
ipaddress alias1 alias2 alias3 alias4 Most shops will just have two aliases, one with just the machine name, one with the fully qualified domain.machine name. In reality, you can do whatever makes sense:
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality wil fail
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# ping localhost
PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.96 ms
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# ping localhost.localdomain
PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.094 ms
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# vi /etc/hosts
<<<< adding an alias 'fred' >>>>>
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality wil fail
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost fred
[root@vmlnx01 ~]# ping fred
PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.306 ms
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.093 ms
64 bytes from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.092 msDoes the order of the aliases have any meaning? I leave that quick experiment as an exercise for the student.

/etc/system file

How do I set a limit for a per process data size in the /etc/system file?
Thank you.
coscop

Coscop,
You can't. The only limit you could set via /etc/system is
file descriptor limits (rlim_fd_cur & rlim_fd_max). ie.:
set rlim_fd_max = 4096
The rest, including the process heap segment, needs
to be set via shell (like in the .profile). Later version of
Solaris has the plimit command which allows to set the limit
on the running PID. Solaris Resource Manager was developed
around the Solaris 8 release time frame, I don't believe
it has a way to limit the heap segment per prccess either.
Hope this helps.

Can't change /etc/oratab file or automatic startup problem on linux!!!

Hi friends,
I have installed an Oracle 11.2.0.1 on Oracle Linux Server 5.11(Virtualbox). I have the users grid and oracle11g. Add groups and install grid infrastructure first as a grid user and install database as oracle user as in documentation successfully.
I have following users and groups as
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ id grid
   uid=501(grid) gid=502(oinstall) groups=502(oinstall),492(vboxsf),501(grid),503(dba),505(asmdba),506(asmadmin),507(asmoper)

When I log on as grid user. I check the followings:
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ crsctl check has
CRS-4638: Oracle High Availability Services is online
[grid@orcl11g ~]$ srvctl status database -d ora11g
Database is running.

Till here everything is OK!!!!
When I edit /etc/oratab file; change N to Y for +ASM and restart the system, then it seems value N is not changed to Y. But changed for database as shown below.
     +ASM:/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0/grid:N   # line added by Agent
     ora11g:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:Y
QUESTIONS!!!!!
1. When I edit /etc/oratab file manually why second row saved (changed N to Y manually) but the first row become unsaved (although changed N to Y) again after restarting the system?
2. After restarting the system database and ASM started automatically, although the line is not changed to Y above (in oratab file) for ASM. What is the reason and how can I change to Y? Or if I have to change the N to Y or not?
3. Is it enough to edit N to Y in oratab file for ASM and database to start ASM and database automatically? I think there will be some other scripts have to be created in /etc/init.d/ directory for automatic startup.
PLEASE HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND THIS PROBLEM CLEARLY!!!!
Thanks!!!

Thanks for reply ZeDBA,
I don't want to prevent auto starting. As 2769577 stated above that
    "...You may not need to edit in oratab since it's automatically taken care by HAS in 11g..."
It is meaningful and perhaps it is the exact reason or solution.
Question is that, why I can't edit oratab file manually for ASM row? ' Not need ' and ' can't ' is different!!
# The first and second fields are the system identifier and home
# directory of the database respectively. The third filed indicates
# to the dbstart utility that the database should , "Y", or should not,
# "N", be brought up at system boot time.
# Multiple entries with the same $ORACLE_SID are not allowed.
+ASM:/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0/grhome_1:N        # line added by Agent
ora11g:/u01/app/oracle11g/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:Y
If we assume the 2769577's answer is exactly correct, reason or solution. Then it means that the row "..
+ASM:/u01/app/grid/product/11.2.0/grhome_1:N
# line added by Agent
in oratab file is meaningless and unnecessary if HAS process enabled and automatically start the ASM.
Please clarify it, If I am wrong?
Thanks!!!

Problem with /etc/system file

I changed /etc/system file and reboot Sun Solaris Intel (5.8)
and I got :
* IPC Semaphores module is not loaded
I did same thing on another box before and was fine. I now that I run some utility before rebooting, but I forget which one.
Can somebody help me.

Thank you very much.
That solve my problem. The problem, if I undersend well, was not in my new /etc/system file, problem was (it is not problem) because I run sysdef right after booting machine and that modul probably is not loaded yet. With forceload sysdef shows what I expected. About
some utility, probably that was something else.

Cert-pwd-file format (migrate local /etc/passwd file to Sun ldap 6.3)

Hello,
I am trying to migrate the local /etc/passwd file to the LDAP. I have created the passowrd text file, when I run the command:
# dsadm stop /local/ds
# dsadm set-flags /local/ds cert-pwd-prompt=on
# dsadm start --cert-pwd-file /local/ds/certpassword.txt /local/ds
I got errors like this:
/local/ds/certpassword.txt contains newline[s]. Cannot use it as credentials file.
My certpassword.txt file format: "root:x:0:0:Super-User:/:/sbin/sh"
What is the best way to mirgrate local accout to the LDAP? Is my password file format correct?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Regards,

You're misinterpreting the usage/purpose of dsadm's cert-pwd-file option.
Here's two ideas that I think are more along the lines of what you want:
- ldapaddent (Solaris command): [http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5166/ldapaddent-1m]
- PADL's MigrationTools: [http://www.padl.com/OSS/MigrationTools.html]

/etc/services file needed

Hi
Plesae give me contents of /etc/services file on Solaris system which hosts a working Solution Manager 4.0 system on Oracle database.
This is to compare with my system to solve a problem.
Thanks
Ashraf

Hi Ashraf,
You need to have the following entries. If you are going to use a SAProuter, you also need 99, as port 3299 is usually used for the SAProuter process on the target system.
sapdpXX    32XX/tcp # SAP Dispatcher.      3200 + Instance-Number
sapgwXX    33XX/tcp # SAP Gateway.         3300 + Instance-Number
sapmsSID   36XX/tcp # SAP Message Server. 3600 + Instance-Number
sapgwXXs   48XX/tcp # SAP Secure Gateway   4800 + Instance-Number
Where XX is you instance number,
Hope ths help!

Re-read /etc/hosts file

How to get system to re-read /etc/hosts file w/o rebooting

Etc/passd file without shell entries

I am looking at the /etc/passwd file for Solaris 9, and noticed the following enrties:
daemon:x:1:31::/:
sys:x:2:3::/:
Daemon and sys have no shell entries, as indicatd by the colon delimiter at the end. If these 2 accounts do not have shell entries, what can they do? Is this a security exposure?
Thanks.

Many configuration files in Solaris have man pages in section 4. /etc/passwd is one of them:
% man -s 4 passwd
     login-shell     is the user's initial shell program. If this
                     field   is   empty, the default shell is
                     /usr/bin/sh.--

The new entries made in /etc/hosts file is not picked up by Weblogic.

Hi All,
I have come across a scenario where i have changed the IP address of a particular host name (which was already present in etc/hosts) to point to a new IP address.
After i did this change, when i do a telnet test to the same hostname, i can see it is getting connected to the new IP to which i changed. But my service which is deployed on weblogic 10.0 still keeps sending requests to the old IP which i commented in the etc/hosts file instead of the new IP address.
My question is will weblogic cache the data in etc/hosts file somewhere?
Thanks in anticipation..
Madhu

Application deployed on weblogic server will pick the IP address of the server on which the application is deployed .
IP address or listen address for weblogic server can be configured in 3 different ways :
Listen Address : Blank --- This means that the server will listen to all the interfaces available on the Machine .
Listen Address : IP address or Hostname --- The server will listen only to the specified IP address or the hostname .
Listen Address : : localhost --- The server will be listening only on localhost address and will not be accessible remotely .
Please check what it the listen address specified at you end.
Thanks,

Editing etc\hosts file on windows xp for apps. problem post installation.

Hi all,
I was able to install 11.5.10.2 apps on my win xp prof machine. During that process I had to edit the etc/hosts file in windows directory as a work around for that domain name field during installation. Also added the primary DNS suffix as 'suneel.com' . I gave the domain name as 'suneel.com' during installation. The RapidWiz is taking localhost as the system name and referring to this system as localhost.suneel.com, though the actual system name is 'websoft-xp' .
The host file on Apps machine has the following entries:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.suneel.com suneel.com
127.0.0.1 websoft-xp.suneel.com
So when I connect to apps login server from other systems in lan, I've to edit their hosts file and add an entry for localhost.suneel.com to point to its ip address or else the apps throws an error after logging in as operations/welcome using a different url say 192.168.1.4:8000 . Is there a way to get around this issue?
More over I'm not able connect to VIS db from other systems. The oracle clients give an error 'No listner' at this address. (The original listener was listening at localhost.suneel.com:1521). So I tried to create a new listerner from Net Manager that actually listens at websoft-xp (the real system name) but it throws me an error 'A valid log file is required' while saving the network configuration and prevents me from saving the network configuration.
Did I do something wrong with the hosts file during installation or did i miss any entries in that file thats causing this? Any solutions for the above problems will be appreciated?
Thanks

Well I tried that option but for some reason it didn't work for me. It kept giving the tns:connection closed error. Then I searched in metalink and found this note : Note:333158.1
It suggested setting tcp.validnode_checking = no
in sqlnet.ora. in
F:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\network\admin\VIS_websoft-xp
And it works. Hope this helps someone facing a similar problem. Good luck.
BTW how do I run autoconfig?

Blocking Ad servers via etc/host file not working

In Snow Leopard I add a list of ad servers and direct them to 127.0.0.1 via the /ect/host file.
I've configured the host file on my mac mini server and it doesn't work.
i just want to block ads when using browsers ON the Mini.
How can I achieve this?

Yeah; that's an old-time Windows and Unix hack.
There are ad-blocking extensions for all major web browsers, and those are easier to manage and maintain.
Off the top, I'd have to check the search order to see if I was getting a response from remote DNS or from /etc/hosts here.
If you're running a Mac OS X Server box, you're hopefully also running DNS services, and if you're running DNS services, then that's going to be where this hackery gets implemented. Add bogus zones. And if DNS gets an answer from its cache, I wouldn't tend to expect it to go read /etc/hosts (for performance reasons), for that matter.
There may well be an ad-blocking DNS server around you can forward queries to, too; I haven't looked for that.
If you make changes to your local /etc/hosts setup, try issuing the following to clear the cache:
dnscacheutil -flushcache
I'd recommend installing an ad-blocker. /etc/hosts is an old-school approach and can end up causing weirdnesses on errors, particularly if your box is (also) a DNS server for your LAN. (Also realize that Apple isn't documenting the /etc/hosts file in the Mac OS X Server 10.6 networking manual.)
