Hi, firstly i want to thank Mr Hasan Mir for providing great tutorials
i installed oracle apps in my home desktop, is there any way i can connect to my apps server from my work place?

i mean i want to connect to asps server from anywhere via internet..

Hi swarup,

You can do that.

For that you need to have a registered domain name and sufficient hard disk space on a machine exposed to internet to host oracle eBS instance.

Installation steps will be almost same.

@ raja
Thanks for the reply, but can u elaborate what u said?
please post any links with instructions if u have

what do u mean by having registered domain name? i have a website domain name but no one is hosting it, can i use that?

This is what you need to do:

(Assuming you have a router installed)

1) Log into your router admin panel
2) Forward ports 8000 and 9000 to the internal IP address of your Linux VM. Use /sbin/ifconfig command to find out the IP of Linux Machine.
By default 8000 is your http port and 9000 is your forms server port (unless you specified different ports to rapidwiz).

Now you are all set to run your Oracle EBS over the internet.
Beware of hackers. Change SYSADMIN and other apps passwords ASAP. Every one knows the default passwords.

Thank you once again, i will try it and let you guys know

i did port forwarding,
how do i connect from other system?

this is what i did...

added my linux ip in host file of my work system
i tried to connect using http//192.168.1.5:8000

it did not work for me

Go to whatismyipaddress.com from your home computer and find out your EXTERNAL IP.

Then visit the url http://EXTERNAL_IP:8000 from your workplace.

Make sure port 8000 is open from your workplace. Usually it is blocked. In that case you have to modify the port of your Oracle Applications from 8000, 8000 to 80, 81 respectively.
