Solaris 11 EA desktop - static IP without NWAM seems impossible

Hello,
I've just started playing with Solaris 11 EA (build 173).
After installing the desktop version (x86 LiveCD) and trying to setup an static IP address I've found that NWAM keeps getting in the way so that I couldn't simply perform the "ipadm create-ip" followed by the "ipadm create-addr".
There's something different I didn't understand yet or maybe there's a bug.
I had to use NWAM to set the static IP.
Is that supposed to be like that?
Thanks in advance,
Carlos.

Here is an additional method. A bit more complex.
Disable Network Auto Magic
# svcadm disable nwam
# svcadm enable network/physical:default
View the Datalink Devices
Solaris 11 devices have many layers to their configuration, which makes advanced configurations much simpler however does complicate basic configurations. Basically the kernel is aware of the physical hardware and we can see this visibility with the first command.
# dladm show-phys
LINK MEDIA STATE SPEED DUPLEX DEVICE
bge0 Ethernet unknown 1000 full bge0
Create and Configure a Logical Interface
So the first step is creating a logical interface, then we can apply an IP configuration against it. This will create a link from the logical interface to the physical interface, and will change the state to “up” from “unknown” that we saw before.
# ipadm create-if bge0
# dladm show-link
And to create a static IP configuration on the logical interface.
# ipadm create-addr -T static -a 192.168.100.200/24 bge0/v4
Add a gateway
# route -p add default 192.168.1.1
Don't forget to do this.....
Copy the nsswitch configuration and refresh
# cp /etc/nsswitch.dns to /etc/nsswitch.conf
# svcadm restart system/name-service-cache:default

Solaris 10 for desktop use?

Hello.
I've got a Dell Inspiron 9400 (intel graphics card) laptop and I have a dual boot: Windows Vista in one partition and Debian Lenny on the other.
I'm seriously thinking about the possibily of uninstall Debian and install Solaris 10 and configure it for dual booting with Vista (GRUB).
I'm not a Solaris newbie since I work with Sun SPARC servers with various versions of Solaris running.
As a desktop environment It will be used for playing movies, listening music, record CD's & DVD's, web browsing, office work... among other things.
Do you recommend me a switch to Solaris for desktop or should I stick to Linux?

I've been impressed with the performance of Solaris on the desktop; I have a vanilla x64 that I've pieced together and everything works wonderfully except the sound. I've not taken the time to play with the sound yet, because it's not something that is important enough to me to care. If you can get video and audio and nic drivers for you system, then I'd give it a try.

Problems with Solaris 10 Secure Desktop server and Windows XP Client

Solaris 10 Secure Desktop server - Windows XP Client - I've tried to open the Solaris Machine's desktop using the browser based http://MysolarisServerName/sdg and the windows native client
http://MySolarisServerName/tarantella.
I log in ok to the Solaris Server.
I can open a VT420 session with the solaris machine, and this works OK, but whenever I try anything else e.g. smc, or full screen desktop it doesn't. I get various error messages e.g. can't open display, and Session Failed - X Session timeout.
I've also installed Cgywin X Server on the Win XP machine to see if this makes a difference, but it doesn't.
Any clues anyone?

Being able to run the VT420 session, but not any X-Window sessions is the clue; it's an X-specific problem. Most likely, ssh isn't configured correctly, see: http://docs.sun.com/source/819-4309-10/en-us/base/indepth/ssh.html
Pasting in the (most) relevant bit:
Adding support for X applications
To support X applications through OpenSSH, enable X11 forwarding in the OpenSSH configuration file. On each Secure Global Desktop host:
1. Edit the sshd_config file and include the following:
X11Forwarding yes
2. Edit the ssh_config file and include the following:
ForwardAgent yes
ForwardX11 yes
3. Restart the SSH daemon.
Using SSH and X authorization
If SSH connections fail, when X authorization is enabled, you may have to run the SSH daemon in ipv4-only mode because Secure Global Desktop may not support the xsecurity extension used on your server. You enable ipv4-only mode by editing your system SSH configuration file. For example:
* On SUSE Linux, edit the /etc/sysconfig/ssh file and add a SSHD_OPTS="-4" line.
* On Red Hat Enterprise Linux, edit the /etc/sysconfig/sshd file and add a OPTIONS="-4" line.
Note If the SSH configuration file does not exist on your system, you can create it.
You must restart the SSH daemon after making this change.

Can we call a static method without mentioning the class name

public class Stuff {
     public static final int MY_CONSTANT = 5;
     public static int doStuff(int x){ return (x++)*x;}
import xcom.Stuff.*;
import java.lang.System.out;
class User {
   public static void main(String[] args){
   new User().go();
   void go(){out.println(doStuff(MY_CONSTANT));}
}Will the above code compile?

Yes, why do it simply?

Can I use System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection in "Windows Server Remote Desktop Session Host" without buy the license ?

Can I use System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection in Azure Virtual Machine Gallary's "Windows Server Remote Desktop Session Host" without buy the System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection license ?
I want to protect my Azure RemoteApp against the malware.
System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection installed Azure Virtual Machine Gallary's "Windows Server Remote Desktop Session Host".
Now, I try to build Azure RemoteApp template by using the Azure Virtual Machine Gallary's "Windows Server Remote Desktop Session Host" .
Regards,
Yoshihiro Kawabata

Hi Yoshihiro,
Unless and until Microsoft modifies the license terms for System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection and/or modifies the Online Services Terms (OST) and/or other document explicitly saying that use is included with the Azure RemoteApp (ARA) monthly
fee I recommend you assume as that it is
not included and license it separately for ARA if that is even possible, which is a separate question.
For licensing it is best to be cautious and make decisions based on the official documents that are available that govern use of the software and services involved. At this moment I'm not able to find a Microsoft document that grants use of System
Center 2012 Endpoint Protection with Azure RemoteApp.
When I first used the gallery template and noticed that Endpoint Protection was installed within it I had the same question as you. I will update this thread if/when I obtain more information.

Is it possible to use wi-fi networks without NWAM in Solaris 11 Express?

Hello,
I have disabled NWAM in Solaris 11 Express and now I'm trying to set up a wi-fi connection with dladm and ipadm only.
I reached a point where all seems well configured and I can even ping my on dhcp leased address.
But I can't ping the default gateway, for example.
I get something such as "Network unreachable".
This is in spite of "netstat -rn" shows a reasonable route.
Thanks in advance,
Carlos.

When I have it disabled I'm not being able to ping other addresses but my own.
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if nwam is doing something else under the hood when it's enabled.
Regards,
Carlos.

What do I do with Mac Pro desktop fans running without extra heat?

My Mac Pro desktop has begun running the fans without the computer being hot or even warm. Is it a hardware fix? I tried shutting down and unpluging for 15 sec. to reset the SMC. No help.

Pushed power button before removing power cord for 15 sec. restart
I should have said, but felt it clear enough... Hit power button WHILE or AFTER UNPLUGGED and before connecting power again.
Apple has changed and rewritten its "How To" article at least 4-5 times just for the Mac Pro section in the last 7.5 yrs.
Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Using the reset button on a motherboard is always an option and was in the first set of directions, with arrow pointing to the exact button and its location back in 2006-7.
Just unplugging is... not effective, and hitting power button while unplugged, helps, some.

Solaris 10, Java Desktop, Mozilla, JSP

It seems that the version of mozilla provided by Solaris 10 (SPARC) and the Java Desktop does not display jsp pages. (seems ironic)
Has anyone discovered the work around for this? I have tried linking the plugin from the j2se v5 that came with the install to my .mozillia/pluging directory, even copied it there, but still no luck. Also tried installeding JRE, and newer J2SE. Still when I try to access http://site.name/file.jsp mozilla does not know what to do with this "binary file" and wants to download it.
Thanks!

I've just run into the poblem as well. Google is not helping me get any answers. I think it's strictly a file extension problem as Tomcat should be outputting actual HTML. Also curious is that Solaris 10 x86 doesn't show the same problem but SPARC does.

Adding Adobe Content Viewer to Desktop for users without InDesign 5, 5.5, 6

We are starting to sell digital advertising and it would be nice if Adobe Content Viewer could be downloaded to the desktop for these advertisers who do not have tablet devices nor have InDesign 5, 5.5 and 6 on their machine. They are wanting to proof their ads in an interactive format on their desktop.

I also would like to see a Content Viewer for people without InDesign.
Better yet would be the ability to embed a viewer into a Folio, like a flash with a projector.

Panic! Folder on a Desktop was vanished without trace!

When i create an iWeb site called "Work", I indicated to maintain the site on Desktop.
Soon discovered that iWeb saves all the site structure mixed with the existing folder "Work" with files that were there earlier and the site does not include (pdf, ai, png, tiff, key, pages).
Therefore, I renamed the site in "Worksite" kept it and got ready to clean iWeb files in "Work" folder .
But on the desktop was just a folder with the files only "Worksite" site. A "Work" folder and all its contents had vanished without a trace.
Spotlight can not find anything, DATA Rescue 3 will scan my 320 gigs is 3 hours and restored 1,680,879 files, including very-very old files. Files from a "Work" folder, as well as traces of the folder was not found. Incredible!
Where have gone folder Work with all its contents?
P.S. Colleagues, I am not Lammer. But it first time. Nor can two dozen files and documetns in the two months of various sizes, extensions, names that are in the same folder ... evaporate in an instant without any trace. Who is engaged in file restoration agree with me?

Avoid assigning to servlet static fields without using a shared lock??

Hi
i received the following warning on my code, does anyone give me a help on this? Thanks
"Avoid assigning to servlet static fields from javax.servlet.Service.service () without using a shared lock."
And my code are as follow:
public class MyDataSource {
    private static DataSource ds = null;
    public static DataSource getDataSource() throws NamingException, Exception
        if (ds==null){
               InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
            try{
                synchronized(getDataSource()){
                if(ds==null){
                    ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(SysProperties.ds);
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                throw new Exception("DBConnection Exception: " +ex.toString());
            }finally{
                    if(ctx !=null){
                        ctx.close();
        return ds;
}

The service method of a servlet is multi-threaded to handle multiple requests. Hence,any static or public fields accessed by the service method should be restricted to a single thread access (for example using synchronized keyword) to make it thread-safe. That is why you are getting the warning message.

How to set VPN server with static IP without DHCP on

I set up a new Mac mini server with OS X 10.9.1 and Server App 3.0.1
My ISP gave me a static bublic IP address.
I have on:
- web server
- mail server
- DNS server
without using DHCP, but now i want to set up L2TP/IPSec VPN server and it requires that i give start IP address of the VPN server.
Can i use VPN server w/out DHCP server on?
If yes, how?
If not, when i turn on the DHCP server, what i have to do with web, mail servers?

To run a public VPN server, you need to do the following:
1. Give the gateway either a static external address or a dynamic DNS name. The latter must be a DNS record on a public DNS registrar, not on the server itself. Also in the latter case, you must run a background process to keep the DNS record up to date when your IP address changes.
2. Give the VPN server a static address on the local network, and a hostname that is not in the top-level domain "local" (which is reserved for Bonjour.)
3. Forward external UDP ports 500, 1701, and 4500 (for L2TP) and TCP port 1723 (for PPTP) to the corresponding ports on the VPN server.
If your router is an Apple device, select the Network tab in AirPort Utility and click Network Options. In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
Allow incoming IPSec authentication
if it's not already checked, and save the change.
With a third-party router, there may be a similar setting.
4. Configure any firewall in use to pass this traffic.

Static Noise without SLI

I've read the thread that states that static can occur when SLI is used, but I'm getting it without SLI. I have a SLI chipset but I only have one graphics card. Is there something I can do to remove the static? My setup is as follows...
ASUS P6T v2 Deluxe
i7 920
6gb DDR3 - 600
EVGA 9800GTX (first slot PCI Express)
Creative Fatality Xi-Fi?PCI Express? (3rd slot PCI Express)
Vista 64-bit Ultimate

I use the newest Titanium drivers for this as the last two versions as said to have the Workaround for it.
They are located here......
http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=0933
and here:
http://support.creative.com/downloads/download.aspx?nDownloadId=0932
Cheers to you. The SLI issue is not cured, but the drivers do have a compromise to help the issue.
