Hi Team,

Please show some light on this query.

OBIEE 11g is installed on Linux server, its running perfectly.  Due to some security changes, need to enable sftp services in same Linux server.

Wanted to know, Is that recommended to enable sftp services in Linux server where already OBIEE server is up & running.

Your inputs are much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

    Not sure what your question / your problem is there.

    Your IT forces you to be able to sftp onto the servers where OBI is running?

    And you are worried about...what? That OBI will stop working? That this opens a security hole?

    OBI will not stop working unless they basically and pretty much mess up the server but that isn't your problem - it's theirs.

    Security hole? Well sounds like they are aiming for more security so things should be safer. In theory. Again if they mess up things it's their  problem.

    @UnitedNations I see your account is up to its usual behaviour of good forum etiquette. Just checked and the last 52 questions you opened are all still "Not Answered" - thus rendering them pretty useless for other forum users.

    It is a pity that accounts can't be locked based on bad behaviour but this kind of leeching without sharing is definitely off-putting and counter-productive for the community.
