This Part Will Cover How I Accomplished Getting a Sun Ray to Run at Home Over a DSL and Cable Modem Ray @Home howto part 1 (quick and dirty) This part will cover how I accomplished getting a Sun Ray to run at home over a DSL and Cable modem. This is using SRSS 3.1. (Part 2 which I will do later is for SRSS 2.0 and 3.0) This is a quick and dirty howto, and assumes that you already have SRSS 3.1 up and running on your local network and have some understanding of DNS, ipfilter, cisco access lists, (or equivelent) Here is a quick overview 1. Make sure specific ports are open to the server 2. Turn on LAN connections 3. Make sure the Sun Ray has the latest firmware for SRSS 3.1 that is available 4. Add DNS entries 5. Configure Home network 6. Enjoy Sun Ray from Home More Detailed Instructions Configure Network to allow Specific ports to Sun Ray Server These are the rules I used on my Cisco router (10.10.10.101 is the Public IP address of the server, just changed to hide it's real ip) : access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7007 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7008 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7009 access-list 16 permit udp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7009 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7010 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7011 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7012 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7013 access-list 16 permit udp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 7013 access-list 16 permit udp any host 10.10.10.101 range 40000 42000 access-list 16 permit tcp any host 10.10.10.101 eq 80 Now that I have these ACL's setup, ANY machine/Sun Ray on the Internet can get to the Sun Ray server. So to fix this I did the following: Setup a Web server that runs on the Sun Ray server (or some place else if you wish). The purpose of this web server is to allow your users to "register" their Sun Ray to use the server. When I say "register" what I mean is this: 1. By default I have IPFilter configured (the machine is running Solaris 10) to deny all incoming traffic except for port 80 2. The User then must go to the web server and log in with their username and password and on the web page it will ask them if their IP is correct, if it is not then they can update it. Once they update it a cron job runs in the background that creates new IPFilter rules and reloads the ipfilter firewall. 3. User can then power on their Sun Ray, they will then get the Secured Login where they have to have either a registered Java Card, or they can register their Java Card if they have a valid username and password on the box. 4. User should now be able to log in The reason I did it this way was I did not want any one in the world to be able to configure their Sun Ray to see my Sun Ray server. This way I am only allowing "known" people to get to it. The way I store the IP's is in a mysql db on the SunRay server. To reload the firewall I run this script as a cronjob that runs every minute: #!/bin/ksh #purpose is to reload the ipfilter firewall rules for when a new sunray needs access to the server #Runs every minute from a cron job rm -f /root/ipf.conf.tmp /usr/local/bin/php /root/exportipf > /root/ipf.conf.tmp FILESIZE="`wc -l /root/ipf.conf.tmp |awk '{print $1}'`" if [[ ${FILESIZE} -gt 0 ]]; then rm -f /etc/ipf/ipf.conf cat /etc/ipf/ipf.conf.head > /etc/ipf/ipf.conf cat /root/ipf.conf.tmp >> /etc/ipf/ipf.conf ipf -Fa -f /etc/ipf/ipf.conf rm -f /root/ipf.conf.tmp fi The contents of the ipf.conf.head file look like this: block in log on ge0 all pass out quick on ge0 all keep state pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from any to any port = 80 flags S keep state The exportipf file is a php script that looks like this: < ? mysql_connect("localhost","root"); mysql_select_db("sunray"); $result=mysql_query("select count(*) as count from homeusers where active='N'"); $num=mysql_result($result,0,"count"); if ($num > 0) { //New IP address has shown up, create new set of rules $result=mysql_query("select ipaddress,who from homeusers order by ipaddress"); $num=mysql_num_rows($result); $i=0; while ($i < $num) { $ipaddress[$i]=mysql_result($result,$i,"ipaddress"); $who[$i]=mysql_result($result,$i,"who"); echo "#$who[$i]\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7007 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7008 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7009 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto udp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7009 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7010 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7011 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7012 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto tcp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7013 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto udp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port = 7013 flags S keep state\n"; echo "pass in quick on ge0 proto udp from $ipaddress[$i]/32 to any port 40000 >< 42000 flags S keep state\n"; echo "\n\n"; mysql_query("update homeusers set active='Y' where ipaddress='$ipaddress[$i]'"); $i++; } } ?> Now that the ports are "open", we need to make sure the Sun Ray's can connect, to do this we need to turn on Lan connections: /opt/SUNWut/sbin/utadm -L on Now, add the following entries in to your DNS for the domain you want the Sun Ray's to query: sunray-config-servers IN A 10.10.10.101 sunray-servers IN A 10.10.10.101 So we would now have FQDN of sunray-config-servers.someplace.net and sunray-servers.someplace.net. Now it is time to take the Sun Ray home and configure your home network. I am going to assume that you have some sort of "firewall/router" device, such as a Linksys Broadband router, etc.. The key thing you need to do is configure the DNS Domain that is handed to your DHCP clients to be the same as what you made your DNS host entries as. So in our case, I would configure the DNS domain to be someplace.net. Now you should be able to boot your Sun Ray and get a "login screen" or some other response codes from the server. I have noticed that some time's the Sun Ray will stay on a 26B, if this happens, you can insert your Java Card, and a login screen should come up. I have not quite figured out what causes it. Hopefully this will help those running SRSS 3.1.. I will put the instructions for version 2 and 3.0 up later, as they are extremely more involved and requires more hardware to do. But since 3.1 is now "free" everyone should be using it, or moving to it soon! Some Notes about using a Sun Ray at home: 1. USB Thumbdrives/cdroms/harddrives do not work if you are behind a NAT device 2. Depending on your connection speed, you may want to disable all background images, and any "fancy" items such as anti-aliased fonts, shadows, network connection app, etc 3. Streaming Audio will start out a little shaky, but "will" work if nothing else is happening. (This is based on trying it with a cable modem and dsl modem 4. I have not tried to upgrade the firmware remotely on the Sun Ray's, currently I have just have the users bring it back in to the office to have the firmware upgraded http://blogs.sungeek.net/unixwiz/2006/03/22/sun-ray-home-howto-part-1/ http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-administrator/blog/2012/05/22/whats-new-in-sap- netweaver-73--a-basis-perspective http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-administrator/blog/2012/05/22/whats-new-in-sap- netweaver-73--a-basis-perspective-part-ii http://constantin.glez.de/blog/2011/03/how-set-zfs-root-pool-mirror-oracle-solaris-11-express Sun Ray 270 with Wireless VPN Access We were challenged recently to demonstrate the capabilities of our Sun Ray 2 technology with the embedded VPN feature to several customers that required wireless networking. So here is what was done to showcase this technology. We had on hand a Sun Ray 270 thin client which had the latest firmware that allows configuration of the integrated VPN. We employed the help of a LinkSys Wireless-G Access Point model number WAP54G revision 3.1 with firmware version V3.04, dated December 27, 2007.

The CAVE was researched and developed by the Electronic Visualization Laboratory, at the University of Illinois at Chicago2 as a tool for scientific visualization. Since it's premiere at the 1992 SIGGRAPH conference, the CAVE has achieved international recognition as the pinnacle of immersive virtual reality system technology, providing a compelling display environment for science, engineering, and art. The intent of the CAVE is to facilitate “suspension of disbelief” by making the virtual environment as realistic as possible. The quality of the graphical images is of paramount importance to realism. Depending upon the model or environment being explored, the speed of the computer’s graphic system will affect the speed of image update. The layout of the physical CAVE structure itself (typically at least three walls with a 270 degree angle and a floor display) will also affect the sense of virtual presence. Today, the CAVE technology has been commercialized and is marketed by Fakespace Systems Inc.

Chapter 1 The Desktop Management Challenge Coping with a never-ending stream of software upgrades and patches, dealing with personal software on desktop PCs, and managing a variety of software versions and hardware failures all present challenges to system administrators. As the number of desktops grows, management and operational costs rise. Ensuring that every system is protected against the latest security attacks is a time-consuming task, and energy budgets inflate as more desktops are added to the environment. In addition, demonstrating compliance with industry or government legislation and internal policies is difficult when applications reside on individual PCs. Perhaps most importantly, sensitive data and critical applications on desktops and laptops are vulnerable to theft and data loss — a problem that is exacerbated by poor backup procedures.
