Hello to all;

I trying to configure putty to access my local database.
i downloaded putty from http://http://www.chiark.greenend.or.../download.html but i want to know how can i confiure correctly.
I followwd some links and videos but i can't configure.
please assist me to configure putty to my database.

putty cannot connect to a database but a server. You need to enter the name of that host and select a protocol (ssh)

Similar to your other thread:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...er-4175450014/

..and you STILL don't provide details. Again: version/distro of Linux, what you've done/tried, where putty is running, and if you've got VNC running on your Linux system, etc. Just saying "I can't configure", tells us nothing. Be aware that putty is a terminal emulator...it does not access databases. If you want a VNC client for Windows, there are plenty. Putty is an SSH tool...NOT A VNC CLIENT. You CAN tunnel X/VNC over SSH, but if you don't have an X/VNC client on your local system to DISPLAY IT, it won't matter.

Hello TBone ;

I'm sorry to post incomplete details.
TO enable GUI mode when ,installing oracle (OUI) throgh putty

Actually i tried to configure VNC throgh putty.

using neat command i set IP but not showinh when executing ifconfig etho

I think i have given expected information.
our goal is to enable GUI mode when using putty ( VNC or some others tools)

If you want to use GUI mode to install DB then better use VNC instead of Putty. Putty is a simple terminal emulator which allows you to connect to remote systems using ssh, telnet or rlogin etc protocols to CLI of remote system, not GUI.

Also mention where you're using putty - on a windows system?

Yes . in windows 7.

I installed OEL4 on vmware 6.5. VNC also i can't done.
Any good doc to follow. When i googled i got some docs but i did clear my task.

This is also similar thread to achieve our goal:

# ifconfig eth0
Anyone help me to resolve ?
Why i am getting error ...

Ok, I'll give you the same answer again: putty is NOT A VNC CLIENT. It is an SSH CLIENT...that's it. You CAN tunnel X or VNC over SSH, but putty (by itself), DOES NOT and WILL NOT provide VNC or GUI connectivity. AGAIN...load a VNC Client for Windows, and use it with the SSH tunnel.
No, not similar: IDENTICAL...you asked the same question in two different threads. And I gave you an answer, and pointed you to a page with step-by-step directions on how to do it. Did you read/understand it??? Here it is again:
http://nodivisions.com/tech/vnc/

Since you've missed it a few times already, I'll say it again: that page is only about setting up a VNC tunnel through SSH, using putty as a terminal client. You still need to set up a VNC client on Windows, and make sure that a VNC server is set up and running on Linux.
You have also said several times in the past that you are NOT a Linux administrator, and that you can't talk with your Linux admins where you work (???), since they're in a different team. So unless VNC is already up and working on the server, you won't be able to install it. And the simple reason you're getting "permission denied", is because you're not running a command, but trying to run a configuration file. You have also replaced the 127.0.0.1 localhost address with something else...which is NEVER a good thing to do. Localhost is ALWAYS 127.0.0.1...other addresses go for other names.

Also, if you are a full-time Oracle DBA, doing a command-line installation shouldn't be difficult.

1. (as above) Putty connects as a remote terminal ie cli ; it does not do GUI

2. that is a cfg file, NOT a cmd, so you can't call it. Try the cat cmd instead

3. The ifconfig cmd shows you've only got an IPv6 addr ie no IPv4 addr; are you sure that's what you want?
It contradicts your hosts file.

Thanks Tbone and Chrism01

Yes , I am NOT a Linux administrator.
Yes, i'm not trying to install VNC in my env.
Apart from oracle ,
i have some responsibility to teach [juniors] few things about oracle and linux

...which you can't, since you're not the administrator.
Great...but again, if you don't have admin rights, you won't be able to teach too much aside from very basic things. Installing and configuring a VNC server isn't basic, and isn't likely to come up during Oracle installations. And shouldn't one of the things you teach a junior person be, is how to do a command-line installation of Oracle, as well as how to use the GUI?
