Can anyone please provide a detailed process of installing an Emulator on Linux and accessing the Mainframe from it. I have gone through almost all on net and I am unable to get through it.
There are very few 3270 emulators for Linux, including vendor products. The most common one is x3270 which you can install using the standard package installers. For example, sudo apt-get install x3270 on an Ubuntu system.
Try the MVS turnkey system: http://www.bsp-gmbh.com/turnkey/
I also had issues trying to do it "from scratch" but turnkey sets it all up nicely.

I'm trying to download the Debian Neo4j version from a Window 7 machine. I'm not managing to find the URL in order to download the package/file . I have installed the GOW software for some linux commands.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Update
I found this link - https://neo4j.com/download/other-releases/ . Know I need to figure out what is the best file to download in order to install it on an Ubuntu Machine
You've got two options :
If you've got access to the package repository (from your Ubuntu machine), follow the information in https://neo4j.com/docs/operations-manual/current/installation/linux/debian/ to install it as a package. That's the best option which also provides start/stop scripts, a user that runs Neo4j (neo4j) and also allows for easier upgrades.
If you can not reach the internet from your Ubuntu machine (as could be deduced from the way you're trying to do it, the zip (or tar.gz for Linux) download is the way to go. You can find that at http://info.neo4j.com/download-thanks.html?edition=community&release=3.2.3&flavour=unix
Hope this helps.

After working with Oracle databases and Apex for many years, I want to get some knowledge about Oracle forms & reports, because they are still quite widely used.
I've never seen Oracle forms & reports, so I want to create a development installation for learning purposes. Unfortunately installing Oracle forms seems a bit more tedious than I expected and I'm a bit stuck.
Windows installation
I first tried installing Oracle 12c (from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/downloads/index.html) on windows 7 x64. I installed the "Standalone forms builder", because when I chose "Forms and reports deployment", I got this error:
After installation I tried to start frmbld.exe, but immediately got this error:
FRM-91135: fatal error: message file D:\oracle\client\user123\product\12.1.0\client_1\forms\mesg\fmcus.msb not found
My oracle client is installed in that directory, but the mentioned file is certainty not there.
linux installation
Googling around I did not find any solution for this problem, so i decided to switch to a Linux virtual box machine. I installed Oracle linux x64 and then installed with a download from the same page again.
Once more I could only choose "Standalone forms builder", when I chose "Forms and reports deployment" I got exactly the same error as on windows. The installation ran successful.
After installation I tried to start formbuilder, this time I was presented this error:
./frmbld: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So now I'm a bit stuck. My questions are:
Am I going the right way with the way I'm trying to install Oracle forms? or is there a better / easier way?
Do I need a "Forms and reports deployment" to be able to experiment with Oracle forms? or is the standalone installation the right way to go?
Are there any pre-installed virtual machines available for this? (I googled but couldn't find anything.)
Do I need a running Oracle database to be able to experiment with Oracle forms?
Linux installation:
Yes you are going the correct path installing Forms/Reports. There is no easier install method (Oracle does not have a prebuilt VM with Forms/Reports).
You will require an Oracle database to connect to.
To fix the linux error you will need to install additional OS packages, probably motif - you can run (to find the packages required): yum whatprovides libXm*
I have installed Forms Builder 12c (standalone install) on Fedora and it is working correctly.
The windows error might be related to you OS PATH ENV - if you have any other Oracle products installed, the PATH order may need to be changed, put the Forms related paths at the beginning.
Unfortunately I was unable to get it properly working with my previous attempts. In the end I restarted an installed a windows 10 x64 virtual machine, after which i followed these excellent video's to get everything working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tgtHPJGc7o
I want to start programming nesC for wireless sensor network on TinyOS in Windows environment. So far, I installed Cygwin terminal, and don't know how to install those packages.
To install the package, the command is like " rpm ***" but not sun command in Cygwin, it's Linux based. Is there any one can help?
So if you want to install TinyOS in windows, the simplest way is to run the virtual machine for windows, the steps could be found here:
http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos-wiki/index.php/Use_TinyOS_in_a_virtual_machine
You can try
http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos-wiki/index.php/Installing_TinyOS
but I would recommend to use TinyOS in Linux.
I'm trying to install the ia32-lib on my mac leopard osx 10.5.8 in order to be able to create some Android components like the SD card, the issue is that i get the following error:
E: Couldn't find package ia32-libs
so i thought it was an update issue and thus updated with:
sudo apt-get update
But still i get the same error,
another thing that i have noticed is that by running a cache scan like:
sudo apt-cache search ia32-libs
Nothing is returned, so the update actually did not fetch this library,
Have you ever experienced this? have some hints?
Unfortunately by looking around the web i have only found hints for Debian and Ubuntu.
Thank you,
OK:
1) You've got two threads open on the same question:
Hard time installing ia32-lib on mac osx
Android: Failed to create SD card
2) More to the point, I honestly think you're barking up the wrong tree.
I don't think you somehow need to get ia32-libs installed on Mac OSX. Heck, I don't even know if there is an ia32-libs for Mac OSX. Yes, It's necessary on some 64-bit Linux platforms. AFAIK, it is not necessary on 64-bit Mac OSX. Honest!
3) Please look at these links:

Whats the simplest way to get a barebones linux server installed?
barebones = just enough to get ssh and package manager.
Current I've been using CentOS with server install and removing any packages that I know i do not want installed.
But is there a better way? I just want a simple ssh shell + package management to start with. Hardware is irrelevant since everything is happening in a VM.
Debian Stable net install.
Once you have that installed and up and running, you can apt-get or aptitude install whatever packages you want. That's how I set up my servers.
If you have the time installing Gentoo will give you just want you want and no more.
Arch just
su -c 'pacman -S sshd'
then you have about as barebones as you can get. Pacman its package management system is pretty easy to use and what not also.
You know the guys over at SliceHost have some very nice documentation on setting up Linux VM's. http://articles.slicehost.com/ubuntu-intrepid I am using their service and I found their documentation to be excellent. Particularly in getting a barebones VM up and running. I use their documentation as a reference for setting up iptables firewall and other basic system tasks on other systems. Hope this helps.
JEOS - Just Enough Operating System, an Ubuntu project, should be exactly what you are looking for.
