Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Setting MTS behind a firewall
Hi, I´ve a Linux machine running Oracle 8.1.7. In this machine
I´ve also configured a firewall using iptables (RedHat 7.2), and
I allow incoming packets to port 1521 (listener port). But if I
set up the MTS server, as known it opens a second port, which
changes each time the database is stopped/started, and thereby, I
cannot put a new rule in my firewall relative to that port.
The MTS is set using the sintax:
mts_dispatchers = "(PROTOCOL=TCP)" mts_dispatchers = "(PROTOCOL=IPC)(DISPATCHERS=1)" mts_max_dispatchers = 5 mts_servers = 1 mts_max_servers = 10
I search in metalink, and I find that the port can be set using:
mts_dispatchers = "(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=my_ip_address)(PORT=fixed_port))" mts_dispatchers = "(PROTOCOL=IPC)(DISPATCHERS=1)" mts_max_dispatchers = 5 mts_servers = 1 mts_max_servers = 10
but I probed it and it doesn´t work!!!!
Does anybody know what am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot, and sorry for my english :-)
