Guess it okay to use SSH over a firewall. But how telnet handles, when connecting to old servers ?
Yesterday when I installed Oracle client as usual (from 10.22.x.x telnet to 10.40.x.x), but failed to launch OUI.
Checking operating system version: must be 5.8, 5.9 or 5.10. Actual 5.8
Passed
Checking Temp space: must be greater than 250 MB. Actual 1228 MB Passed
Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 4532 MB Passed
Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors
>>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/openwin/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if the DISPLAY variable is set. Failed <<<<
Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before
continuing with the installation,at which time they will be rechecked.
Continue? (y/n)
googled internet, tried to create dummy xdpyinfo and run "xhost +". but ...
Finally, have to face using response file for silent mode.
- Find the corresponding response template file in ./response directory
- Edit it by simply add group name, ORACLE_HOME path. Many parameters are Self-explanatory (check oracle doc if needed)
- That is it by invoke "./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /d01/app/oracle/patch/response/clientadmin.rsp"
- Let it run in background and leave for home.
- When come back, don't forget to run root.sh as root.
Cheers ! no need to raise Change Request to network team, which may take few days to complete.
BTW, the default port used by remote desktop is 3389.
