Opening SSH to the outside world is a security risk. Here is how to restrict SSH access to certain IP addresses on a machine.
- Edit the /etc/hosts.allow file to include these lines, assuming your machine is on the 192.168.2.x nonrouting IP block, and you want to enable an external address of 217.40.111.121 IP block: Remember to add the period on the end of each incomplete IP number. If you have another complete IP address or range, add a space and that range on the end.
sshd,sshdfwd-X11: 192.168.2. 217.40.111.121
- Edit your /etc/hosts.deny file to include this line:
sshd,sshdfwd-X11:ALL
- These lines refuse SSH connections from anyone not in the IP address blocks listed.
Additionally you can restrict SSH access by username.
- Edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and add the following lines
PermitRootLogin no
AllowUsers user1 user2 user3 etc
PasswordAuthentication yes
Now restart the ssh daemon for these changes to take effect
service sshd restart

In this article Yvonne Milne looks at the use of the Recital Remote Data Connectivity Functions with Recital Database Gateways.
If when your attempt to create device meta-data fails this is drbd preventing you from corrupting a file system present on the target partition.
$ drbdadm create-md drbd0
v08 Magic number not found
md_offset 30005817344
al_offset 30005784576
bm_offset 30004867072
Found ext2 filesystem which uses 190804004 kB
current configuration leaves usable 29301628 kB
Device size would be truncated, which
would corrupt data and result in
'access beyond end of device' errors.
You need to either
* use external meta data (recommended)
* shrink that filesystem first
* zero out the device (destroy the filesystem)
Operation refused.
Command 'drbdmeta /dev/drbd0 v08 /dev/sda4 internal create-md' terminated with exit code 40
drbdadm aborting
Once you have confirmed that the file system present on the target partition is no longer required at the prompt type the following:
Replace /dev/sdaX with the block device you are targeting.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdaX bs=1M count=128
Once this has completed the drbdadm create-md drbd0 command will complete with a "success."
$ drbdadm create-md drbd0
v08 Magic number not found
v07 Magic number not found

The Recital Oracle Gateway requires the Oracle libclntsh.so shared library. If this file is unknown to ld.so.conf, add it using the ldconfig command.
We are pleased to announce the release of Recital 10.0.2.
Here is a brief list of features and functionality that you will find in the 10.0.2 release.
- New commands
SAVE/RESTORE DATASESSION [TO variable]
CONNECT "connectString"
DISCONNECT - New functions (OData compatible)
startsWith(haystack as character, needle as character)
endsWith(haystack as character, needle as character)
indexOf(haystack as character, needle as character)
substringOf(haystack as character, needle as character)
concat(expC1, expC2) - New system variables
_LASTINSERTEDSYNCNUM - Enhanced commands
Added CONNSTRING "connectingString" to the USE command to connect to remote servers (Recital, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, ODBC) - Further SQL query optimizer improvements to boost performance
- Performance improvements in Recital Web
- Forced all temporary files into temp directory (improves performance when local tmpfs is used as temp directory and reduces network i/o)
- Fixed cookie and session variable problems in Recital Web
- Fixed problem with temporary files being left after some server queries involving memos and object data types
