Use L2TP/IPsec or SSL for Wiki and Blog?

Here comes another, slightly embarrising, newbie question…
The only service I am setting up on the server is the Wiki and Blog. We will only connect to the server through the internet (no public access). There are no clients on the inside.
Now trying to decide which external firewall to buy.
Since the only service is the Wiki and Blog, I would spontaneously think that SSL VPN is good becase then we can log in through our web browsers and the Wiki and Blog is to be viewed with the web browser.
To me it looks like quite a number of firwalls doesn't support SSL VPN (NetGear, D-link, Zyxel).
I have never used VPN PPTP- or L2TP/IPsec-style. Can I use the web browser still with these protocols to see the Wiki and Blog?
Cheers,
HindIII

I have been reading and reading, but there seems to always be room for "what do they mean by that" or "if they don't write it, its not possible", hehe.
The NetGear FVX538 states in its specifications "VPN/security: IPsec (ESP, AH), MD5, SHA-1, DES, 3DES, IKE, PKI, AES" and for the FVS336G it says "VPN/security: IPsec (ESP), IKE, PKI, HTTPS"
Even the full names of the firewalls are, to me, somewhat descriptive: "Prosafe Dual WAN VPN Firewall with 8-port 10/100 Switch FVX528" vs. "Dual Wan Gigabit SSL VPN Firewall FVS336G".
One can also compare Zyxels "ZyWall 5" and ZyWall SSL 10".
When I read the manuals, some hardly mention SSL while others (that often are called SSL in their names) have longer sections on how to set up SSL VPN.
Thanks MrHoffman for your input.
I hope I soon can decide which external firewall to get. Spontanously, to me it sounds like the built in firewall in 10.6 Server got pretty good specifications. One can do both PPTP and L2PT with Kerberos that is written to be excellent (according to Daniel Eran Dilger, writer of "Snow Leopard Server"). Then I get stuck in searching for Kerberos solutions in the external firewalls, never finds that.
It seems like I need someone to tell me exactly what to get and exactly what protocols to use :o) I wich I knew as much about servers as I do about my normal profession, hehe.

How to configure Oracle RAC for Wiki and Blog

Has anyone done Oracle RAC configuration for Oracle Wiki and Blogs?
Thanks,

Hi Andreas,
Thanks you for your help. I am trying to implement third party external LDAP authentication for APEX and Forms.
So I started with OID and SSO setup to create external Partner Applications. Some reason my oid and sso web login links are not working. I didn't find any errors. I need some help in finding the problem and direction, I already read docs on web but no proper direction. I appreciate your help.
Thanks

Other language for Wiki and blog?

The subject pretty much says it all. Is there a way to change the language of the menues in the wiki and blog? If not it´s pretty useless features for a large percent of Leopard Server buyers.

The wiki and blog are displayed in the system language of the client. In other words, if you're operating Safari from a German system, the software will display in German.

Documentation for oracle webcenter wiki and blog server 10.1.3.2.0

Hi
Can anyone tell me where I can get the documentation for oracle webcenter wiki and blog server 10.1.3.2.0. I am specifically interested in this version and not the latest version Oracle® WebCenter Wiki and Blog Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.4.0) because I have heard the older version provided out of the box portlets for creation of blogs.
Since we want blogs very fast, I want documentation of this older version.
Can anyone point them out to me as soon as possible please

You can find the demo portlets here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/webcenter/owcs_10132_demos.html#wiki_blog_disc_samples
I do not believe there were any portlets provided with the earlier release.
Anyway what i think is it should not take you more than a few hours to integrate blogging functionality if you are using the Connection & Task flows provided by WebCenter.

How to use Wiki and Blog in Spaces

Hi,
How do I use wiki and blog inside the Webcenter Spaces. I don't see wiki and blogs. Have configured discussions but trying to find out how to configure wiki and blogs. I don't have any custom application just using Spaces.
Thanks

Manish, that's fine. But after doing that and requesting the Spaces Wiki page I'll get a login prompt from Wiki. How do I manage the security hand over mechanism? I'm sorry, but I don't understand the SAML stuff mentioned before in repect of this context here. It refers to a Single Sing on setup for Spaces which I don't have and use. I'd like to propagate the pure WLS embedded LDAP based login to wiki.
Thanks

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Hi SandyS_VZW,
Yes tried resetting the wifi connection and problem still persist.
Here it is...to make it clear. Connected thru the same wifi at home...
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook WEBSITES are working fine and fast when using/accessing thru a browser (chrome/samsung browser) - no problem with this.
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook APP is soooooo sloooww (thru the App). Slow I mean comparing it to using their browser/websites... news feeds/emails refreshing so quickly but not when using the APP installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Slow like - It will take around 5-10minutes just to get your emails and news feed refreshed.
THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN CONNECTED THRU A WIFI which has a speed of 10-20mb. It is not happening when connected to the network data/plan.
My wife has the same Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (coming from different provider at&t) - same setup (emails, fb app), same wifi connection, but she's not experiencing anything like it.
Not sure why, I dont want to believe that while connected to a WIFI, Verizon is restricting anything and ******* me off to make me switch to my data plan connection everytime - which is Unfair!
Was there a known issue similar about this case?
thanks,

I have a family Apple ID associated with my iMac and iPad for iTunes and Apps and then two new iPhone 5s each which use a personal Apple ID for email and the family Apple ID for iTunes and Apps. Can I use iTunes Match on the iPhones given there are two Apple IDs "loaded" on the iPhone?

HT204053 Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services from two different devices - iPhone and iPad?

Can I use the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime services simultaneously on two different devices - iPhone and iPad? It seems those are competing to each other, and the services work on one of them only (iPhone).

Many thanks, Sir! Both are mine and it's good to know that imessage can work on both with the same Apple ID. Will now have to find out why imessage stopped working on iPad when it started on iPhone (new). After exploring the forum I understand that there may be plenty of reasons why imessage does not work, even though it worked previously on the same device with the same ID.

How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number? I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

Create a new Apple ID for the second phone. If you are setting the phones up as new phone enter the ID you want to use on each phone.
If both phones are already signed in to one Apple ID then use the settings app to change Apple IDs on one phone.
Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the Apple ID > sign out > sign in with alternate Apple ID.
Note that if you have downloaded apps with the original Apple ID on the phone with the new Apple ID, those apps will still be associated with the old Apple ID and will require the old ID and password in order to update them.

How can i use 2 different apple ids for imessage and facetime on 1 ipad?

How can i use 2 different apple ids for imessage and facetime on 1 ipad?

Do you mean can you use one Apple ID for FaceTime and one for iMessage? You should be able to. Or, do you mean, can you log into iMessage (or FaceTime) with two Apple IDs at once? No.

I received the following message when iTunes launches: "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CD's or DVD's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning softwarre. Please reinstall iTunes"

Everytime I connect my iPod Touch (4th Gen) to my laptop, running Win 7 (64 bit) I get the message "The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes" I have reinstalled iTunes several times and it has not fixed the issue. I am running ver 10.2.2.12 of iTunes. I HAVE NOT installed any other burning software to my laptop either. I haven't tried uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing it yet. Would that perhaps fix the problem? I've read that many users have had issues with the new version of the software and I was wondering if that might be causing my issue. I'd like to point out that iTunes seems to work after getting rid of the message, but I haven't tried to burn any CDs or put music from a CD to my laptop. Any ideas on how to get rid of the annoying message?
I also am having trouble hooking up with our other computers using Homegroup. I noticed quite a lot of people are having the same issue and hopefully they come up with a fix for that soon.
Thanks in advance.

iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
If you're still getting the error message (especially when you plug in the Touch), I'd check for a device filter confusion on the PC. (They can affect the connection of USB devices to a PC, as well as burning and importing CDs.) For that one, see:
