ssh: connect to host xxx.xx.xx.xxxx port 22: connection refused

While configuring Ubuntu for PostgreSQL, when I was trying to connect Ubuntu server, I got following error message:
edbs-MacBook-Pro:~ vibhor$ ssh vibhor@172.16.82.130

To resolve this issue, I have found that installation of Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't have openssh-server installed due to which Message was coming, so I have installed openssh-server using following command as given below:
root@ubuntu:~# apt-get install openssh-server

Does UPDATE Change ROWID in Oracle?

Yesterday, there was a discussion which was going on OTN (Oracle Forum). I was also part of that discussion. Discussion was about the "Does UPDATE statement change rowid in Oracle?" As per my comment of "UPDATE does not change rowid", one of the user has pointed me that UPDATE statement sometime changes the rowid in Oracle and given me following example. SQL> ed Wrote file afiedt.buf 1 create table moving_rowid ( 2 col1 number primary key, 3 col2 number, 4 col3 number, 5 col4 varchar2(10) 6 ) 7* organization index SQL> / Table created. SQL> insert into moving_rowid values( 1, 2, 3, 'foo' ); 1 row created. SQL> insert into moving_rowid values( 2, 3, 4, 'bar' ); 1 row created. SQL> select rowid, col1, col2, col3, col4 2 from moving_rowid; ROWID COL1 COL2 COL3 COL4 ---------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- *BAEADxsCwQL+ 1 2
