Video Services ? Questions 16
Oracle Lets Talk ADS-DBA Team AAIT *
Talk About 10 g • The new 10 g version of WEB/EBO • Oracle Internet Directory (OID) • Advance Security Option (SSL ? ) 18
10 g • The new environment for the WEB/EBO databases will be more robust. • 10 g allows us to add processing power during heavy use periods. • When a box fails, the database will not fail. It just moves to another box. • This feature is available with 10 g clients using OID. 19
Who is Moving? • Most developers who use the WEB and EBO databases are AAIT. • This does not address developers using SLF 1, SLF 2, DPT 1 or DPT 2. • If you are not sure which database you are attaching to, contact your web admin or the help desk. 20
WEB/EBO DBs go 10 g • Please start testing the 10 g version of the database now. • Oracle 9 i clients will work, but… • Install the 10 g client to use the advanced features, such as failover. • Use OID to access the “AAITWEBD” service. 21
Talk about OID • The new 10 g version of WEB/EBO • Oracle Internet Directory • Advance Security Option (SSL ? ) 22
OID: How do I get there from here? 1784 N. Decatur RD TNS – Old, lists machine TNS - Manual Change 1784 N. Decatur Rd, luna. cc. emory. edu 1762 Clifton Rd Triton. cc. emory. edu OID Web Server OID - Do Nothing, let us work for you! 23
OID vs TNS: How do I get there from here? TNSNAMES requires you to specify the database server, the port, and the database name. If anything changes, then you must manually change the file. How many PC’s do you support? How do you know about every change? OID puts the burden on the DBAs. They make the changes when a database moves. You don’t have to. There is no reason not to move to OID as soon as you can. 24
So How Do I Switch to OID? First we will add a few lines to your sqlnet. ora file in your network admin folder. Then we create a new file, the ldap. ora in the same folder. First lets add lines to sqlnet. ora # Naming entries for sqlnet. ora NAMES. DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, LDAP) NAMES. DEFAULT_DOMAIN = cc. emory. edu NAME. DEFAULT_ZONE = cc. emory. edu %Oracle Home%/network/admin/sqlnet. ora Both files are available on the web. 25
So How Do I Switch to OID? Now we place a new file, ldap. ora in the same directory. DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT = "dc=emory, dc=edu" DIRECTORY_SERVERS=(oranamesrvr 0. cc. emory. edu: 389: 636, oranamesrvr 2. cc. emory. edu: 389: 636) DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE = OID %Oracle Home%/network/admin/ldap. ora Both files are available on the web. 26
Can I Copy the Files From Somewhere? Sure! Go to: http: //it. emory. edu/ and search for database. The Self Service Database FAQ has examples for both ldap. ora and sqlnet. ora. Or go to: http: //www. it. emory. edu/showdoc. cfm? docid=1547&fr=1086#faqs 27
Talk About ASO • The new 10 g version of WEB/EBO • Oracle Internet Directory • Advance Security Option (SSL ? ) 28
What is the problem? ASO Web Server Bounce or Your PC Database Server Hackers Unprotected connection Sniff 29
What about the Core? • The Administrative Core is a good concept. It keeps out most of the hackers. • The core does not protect against staff members (or student workers) with curiosity or malice. 30
So what is the solution? • Implement ASO, which is the Oracle equivalent to SSL. • We will start requesting use of ASO. • Over time we may move to requiring it, depending on our security needs. 31
How to use ASO • Oracle Advance Security is configured in the sqlnet. ora file. • Most machines already have what they need. If not one module (ASO) may need to be installed. • Changing a few lines in the sqlnet. ora file should do it. 32
Can I Copy the Files From Somewhere? Sure! Go to: http: //it. emory. edu/ and search for database. The Self Service Database FAQ has examples for both ldap. ora and sqlnet. ora. Or go to: http: //www. it. emory. edu/showdoc. cfm? docid=1547&fr=1086#faqs If you don’t write at 90 MPH, the slides will be available. 33
SQLNET. ORA The security portion of the SQLNET. ORA looks like this: SQLNET. CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT= (MD 5) SQLNET. ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT= (RC 4_40, RC 4_56) SQLNET. CRYPTO_SEED = qwertyuiop 1234567890. ORA =. ora SQLNET. CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT = requested SQLNET. ENCRYPTION_CLIENT = requested 34
The Future • Over time we would like all communication to be encrypted. • All servers will be set to required if possible, or to requested for servers with unusual clients. • There is no timeline at this point. 35
Questions about any of this • The new 10 g version of WEB/EBO • Oracle Internet Directory • Advance Security Option (SSL ? ) http: //www. it. emory. edu/showdoc. cfm? docid=1547&fr=1086#faqs or http: //it. emory. edu/ then search for database to find the self service FAQ. 36
