When making your R12 server available on-line you need to protect your FND user password.
This assumes that you have ONLY opened port 8000 for APPS login access.
For any other access I can only recommend to use VPN as a full OEL and RDBMS lock down is very complex.
I used the following script (use at your [...]

You can either run out and buy a huge server and re-install on that or try to use two laptops instead of one?
Equipment used:
Router – Draytek 2820

Concurrent Request Sets are great to use when having to submit multiple programs like period-end programs.
However it in large scale projects you may have to submit very large request sets depending on some logic which is virtually impossible to implement as a Concurrent Request Set.

Well having installed and worked with R12.0.4 it very fast becomes clear that a new version is needed.
So I downloaded R12.1.1 from Oracle eDelivery. 40 files in excess of 45Gb to the joy of my ISP.

In addition to testing the downloaded files also be sure to use a download manager.
The basic zip test command is:

Then add your Apps server to IE8 security settings:
Lower the security setting to medium-low for Trusted Sites:
Allow pop-ups from [...]

Well why make a post about this?
OEL does not seem to be a complete operating system – it feels like Linux 5 years ago with loads of drivers missing and command line fiddling.
One chapter for each part…
Graphics
This does work out of the box but the built in driver is not great and make the fan [...]
