Samba Server

Hi Friends , if you want to access linux shares from windows and add files into linux share you are at right place.

Scenario :

1 Desktop pc --> Windows vista

1 Desktop pc --> Windows 2000

1 Desktop pc -->  Redhat 5 (RHEL 5)

we will setup samba server on RHEL 5 and then we will access that share from windows 2000 and windows vista.

RHEL 5 :

----------

1)  yum -y install samba*

2)  yum -y install system-config-samba   ( For Samba GUI Configuration )

3)  vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

4)  Look for  hosts allow =  add IP subnets here Ex .     192.168.1.  127.  10.47.0.   NO COMMAS

5)  At the end of File add :

  

     [SHARE NAME]

           comment = root

           path = /                    --> to share

           writeable = yes        --> Connected user can read write

           

6) This information is enough in smb.conf

7)  system-config-samba 

8)  preferences > server setting > security > authentication mode "Share"

9)  preferences > samba users > add user > unix username and enter password for samba 

10) Click on share , click on properties , ACCESS > Allow access to everyone

How to access Shared Folders from windows 2000 and windows vista

1) Run > \\RHEL server ip\

Thats It! Now you can even insert files into share so that it can be visible in RHEL 5!

Configure Listener

I was bit confused when i first read about listeners but now its very simple for me and here i will explain you how to configure listener and start and stop etc.

Concept :
Listener will simple listen on port specified by you and will accept connections on that port , and finally will connect that connection to started instance of database

client --> LISTENER --> DATABASE INSTANCE (Your started database)

Important Things which you will require while configuring listener

• ORACLE_HOME
• ORACLE_SID
• PORT NUMBER ON WHICH LISTENER WILL LISTEN FOR CLIENT CONNECTIONS

To check your SID on Linux Box :   echo $ORACLE_SID

This SID you will configure in your listener which is currently running instance

Navigate to :

• cd $ORACLE_HOME
• cd  network/admin
• vim listener.ora

Configure listener.ora as follows :

HOST : your ip on which your going to listen

PORT : (Your choice)

ORACLE_HOME , ORACLE_SID check with previous command and enter same here in file.

Thats it!

You simply configured listener names LISTENER (by default name)

How to Start Listener :

$ lsnrctl start LISTENER

How to Check :

$ sqlplus girish/girish@//HOSTNAME:PORT/SID

If everything is proper you should get connected to oracle instance!
