Best way to achieve SSo

We are in the middle of a new ECC 6/CRM 7 implementation and would like to know the best way to accomplish SSO in our environment so that both the regular SAP GUI and the NWBC client can benefit from single sign on.
We currently have two separate AD forrests. One in which our PC's are called SE_DOMAIN.COM. This domain has the underscore character n on it so we created a new AD domain and forest called SEI.LOCAL and we are in the process of migrating everything from SE_DOMAIN into SEI.
Our current SAP servers are already in the SEI domain while the users are still in SE_DOMAIN. I have read a few guides for SSO, but still unsure which is the best way to accomplish this as some mentions a CA and others apparently are in favor of the latest Federation services from Active Directory and SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language).
is SAML the new and recommended way to go?
Regards,
Paul Aviles

Hi,
There is no need to use certificates for this, and no need to use SAML. In fact if you want SAP GUI authentication, there is only one possible way - you have to use a cryptographic library and use the SNC interface provided in SAP GUI and in SAP ABAP AS. When using SNC with Active Directory it is best to use an SNC/Kerberos library since Kerberos is the protocol used by AD for authentication of users when they logon to the domain.
You would need to install the software on each workstation running SAP GUI and also on each server running ABAP AS. Then you would ensure that there is a one way trust between your two AD forests, and then you will get SSO for users logging into the old domain (the one containing the _) and also users will benefit who are logged onto the new domain. This will help during your migration.
I suggest you look at http://sap.cybersafe.com and I recommend you look at the products on this site.
Thanks,
Tim

Once the user has entered the URL they want to add to the form. You can use the loadXML function to implement some special text in a label...

Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined. If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?

Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing. Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

Best way to achieve PHD-like ability in home environment?

We have 4 Macs at home.   Each mac (except mine) has 4 identical logons -- one for each member of the family.   The physical Mac themselves become just generic devices -- i.e. grab whichever one is available.    The problem arises when Kid 1 writes a term paper on Mac 1, later picks up Mac 2 and tries to edit it.   She then needs to find Mac 1 and log into her account....
I read about OSX Server and thought about buying a Mini, turn on PHD, and have home directories sync'd in the background/logon/logout so that it truly doesn't matter which Mac a family member picks up.    Thought also about having a shared PHD for things likely to be accessed by multiple family members at the same time -- pictures, music, etc...
Q: Is OSX Server the best way to achieve this?
Q: OSX Server on a dedicated Mini or just on my Macbook (which has tons of storage, the shared family stuff is there now anyway)?
Q: I've seen mention that two people can't simulataneously connect to the same PHD. Is that true?   Would that make PHD unsuitable for a group shared file area?
Many thanks in advance,
Marty

OS X Server can do this. You'll need to set up local DNS, local shares and the rest, and then bind the client Mac systems to the Open Directory server.
A Network Attached Storage device — or accessing a share that's been configured on whatever Mac was used, technically there's no need for server to export shares from Mac systems — is another and potentially much simpler option here. Put the shared files there, and any Mac can access them.
With Open Directory, folks would have their own logins, and I'd generally not look to have multiple logins in parallel with portable home directories in use. Portable home directories are useful when the Mac systems are portable and leaving the local network on occasion. If the Mac systems are not leaving the local network, then a network home directory is probably better.

What is the best way to achieve backup and storage by combining TC and external HD?

Hi,
By reading various posts I came to the conclusion that my recently bought 2TB TC (still in the box) needs to be combined with an external HD (not bought yet) if I want both network (WIFI) storage and safe backup.
Could someone please confirm what the best way of organising the two devices is and advice on the various steps I will need to take?
See below for some extra information:
I want to back up a Mac Book Pro with 250 GB HD and potentially a HP laptop (250 GB as well).
Can this also allow me to backup a iPad?
The storage will need to be accessible to both machines. It will mostly be pictures.
Back up should be as automated as possible, i.e. Time Machine is the obvious choice but I am open to other tools.
With regards to the external hard drive, are models like Western Digital Element or Seagatte Expansion suitable to stay plugged in the TC 24/7? Will they not overheat?
My initial idea is to use the WIFI facility of the TC box. I can use the WIFI facility of the modem/router is more appropriate.
Thank you in advance for your replies.
Denis

The drives you are backing up are small. There is no real need to use external drive but you do need a backup if you store files on the TC.. for just backups that is not necessary.
You cannot partition the TC but you can create a disk image for using with data files.. ie the PC backup.
Read Q3 here http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
Can this also allow me to backup a iPad?
iPad is backed up to itunes.. or to cloud.. it is not able to see the TC drive at all without an app. You can manually copy files to the TC using filebrowser app but there is no auto backup software in the iPad to other than itunes.
It will mostly be pictures.
Back up should be as automated as possible, i.e. Time Machine is the obvious choice but I am open to other tools.
So you are not backing up, you are storing files.
You cannot access files in a Time Machine backup except by restoring them to the Mac. The PC cannot see them at all. That means you are not backing up.. you are storing files, even if just copies of the files. To do that you just copy via finder or windows explorer.
There are various scripting methods to ensure these photos are synced on all the devices. .but that is not what a backup software does.
If you want to use USB drive that is fine, they can stay attached 24/7. The disk will spin down generally when not in use.
They will not overheat.
But it is much faster to copy files to the USB drive plugged into the computer than on the TC.. the USB link on the TC is slow.. less than half the speed of the same drive on the computer.. much slower than the TC internal drive. It might be better to plug a USB drive directly into a computer.

Best way to achieve fade out-in pages

I was wondering if anyone had an opinion on the best way to
build this --
I want to have some kind of lovely transition between the
pages of my website (why not; it's Flash) -- I've thought about the
following three options:
- old page's text flying off the right side while the new
text flies in the right
- old page's text fades out and a background animation (like
a turning page or something) plays before new text fades in
- old page's text simply fades out as new page's text fades
in
In all of them I ran into a problem -- how to tell two or
more sequential things to happen on a button press. For instance,
if there was some kind of nifty flying-away of the old page's
content, how do I tell it to do that and THEN fly-in the new page's
content? It would be a pain to simply animate every possibility,
like page a to page b, page a to c, a to d, b to a, b to c, etc...
there has to be some way to script it prettily.
I've come across the following ideas:
quote:
on (release) {
myClip.gotoAndPlay("fadeout"+pagename);
outerClip.gotoAndPlay(1);
Where you define a 'pagename' variable for each one and have
frames labeled accordingly
or:
quote:
button02.onrelease = function() {
movieclip01.fade(0,10);
movieclip02.fade(100,10);
movieclip03.fade(0,10);
//etc, etc, etc....
where you clumsily fade out everything else possible when you
load each one.
or I was even thinking about making the old page content
'retreating' animation for each page and trying to code it to play
that and then play the requested new page, in one long timeline.
Does anyone have a more elegant way of thinking about this?
I've looked all over for examples, but most tutorials seem to stop
short of the scripting I'd love to use. Code examples would be
highly, highly appreciated. I'm a total AS3 newbie, but willing to
learn if that's the best way.
Thanks in advance to all the brilliant people out there who
might add their 2¢!

Thanks again NedWebs! For this thought experiment, I'm just
talking about a simple fadeout current clip - fadein new clip. But
I run into the same general question lots of times, for instance
for a current project I wanted to unload the clip, play a 'page
flip' looking transition movie, and then load in the new clip...
So are you advocating the button action as being fade out all
other movie clips (as a catch all that works no matter which is
loaded), then load requested movie clip?
How do you tell the actionscript to finish fading out 'a'
BEFORE starting to fade in 'b'? Or in the pageflip example, how do
you tell it to complete the whole fadeout, THEN play the pageflip
movie, THEN load the requested clip? If I put the actions within
the same handler or whatever, won't the instructions complete all
at once?
Sorry for my tangly questions; I'm learning!

What is the best way to achieve this

site is
here
much like a "drop shadow" on the content into the background
i have an image that repats on the y axis.....it is a film strip...
this is my issue....
i have the bacground image defined in the #wrapper div as
follows
div#wrapper {
margin:0 auto;
background:black url(../images/bgMainContent.gif) repeat-y;
width:772px;
height:auto;
text-align:left;
this way what ever content i fill the web page with the "film
strips" will repeat all the way down.....
this is my problem....
i have two div's for my main content now #bodyPic and
#bodyContent, they are set to float left and right
respectivly.....(the are next to each other in other words)
if i define a background color it wil over ride the "film"
effect...so what i need to do is set a margin-left:25px; to
#bodyPic and a margin-right:25px; to the #bodyContent......
the obvious problem here is the box model problem......is
there a way i can avoide using margin on the #bodyPic and
#bodyContent divs? and still have the 25px free on either side ??
the only way i can think of is to set a background to
tranparent and add the padding to the elements inside of the divs
for example if i have p in the #bodyContent i will set the
margin-right:25px; for the #bodyContent p
is there another way to achieve this???

this is an update......my code now looks like this...
div#bodyWrapper {
width:722px;
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
div#bodyPic {
margin:0 auto;
width:257px;
height:400px;
background:green url(../images/aboutBodyPic.gif) bottom
right no-repeat;
text-align:left;
float:left;
div#bodyContent {
margin:0 auto;
width:465px;
height:400px;
background:blue;
text-align:left;
float:right;
<div id="bodyWrapper">
<div id="bodyPic">
</div>
<div id="bodyContent">
</div>
<br style="clear:both;"></br>
</div>
this doesnt work in IE 5, 5.5.......the two body dovs are not
being centered in the wrapper.....
any suggestions?

Best way to achieve this Eg in Muse

I am super inspired by sites that begin to mix rich video with interactive elements embedded in a single parallax scrollable site. Case and poin is this example...
http://moto.oakley.com/
I just actually learned about Muse and saw some rich examples but am wondeirn if you can push it far enough to create an example liek the one attached.
Key aspect
a) Scroll a PNG sequence into view
b) Have the sequence begin to animate at a certain point
c) Trigger text and graphcial overlays
d) have it continue down the page upon completion of PNG sequence
Any tutorials out there that would get close to walking me through creating something remotely close?
Thanks in advance - JG

Hi all. I'm studying design but I have some trouble with this simple thing. I don't know how to achieve this effect in the best and natural way possible...I tried with the pen tool but it sucks...
You do see the irony in your statements, right?
How better for a student to learn than to persevere? That image, once you get a bit more practice with the pen tool, should only take you 5 minutes. If you were coming up with a new to you design, longer. But you have a sample and are only copying it.
Get to using that pen tool and learn.

What is the best way to establish sso between iphone and IIS?

Hi experts,
I try to configure the SCEP, and I can view a IIS content with "Certificate required", but, can I validate the username with this certificate?
thanks in advance,

Hi,
Yes, TCP/IP is most universal way for the communication. Otherwise you should develop some parts for establish connection / break connection / wait for the data. This way also good when you need to transfer the data across network.
Another possible way is following: you can create DLL from your LabVIEW code, then call this dll from your C# application, and interchange the data through this DLL. Here you can use different techniquies (also TCP/IP as well). The advantage of this method that you will establish LabVIEW<->LabVIEW communication.
In attached example I have create "quick and dirty" project with shared variables. LabVIEW application will write the shared variable, then external application will read this, increment variable, then LabVIEW will read it back. I have used CVI, but you can call SharedLib from C#, here no differences.
Something like that:
best regards,
Andrey.

What's the best way to achieve layout style?

I'm fairly new at using Dreamweaver and I'd like to create a
web page with a dark coloured background and have a
rounded-rectangle layered on top (prefereably with a slight
drop-shadow). Do I create one large rectangle graphic and put it in
a layer? Or is there a better way to do it and keep the pages quite
light on the graphics for better downloading of the pages?
Many thanks for your help!

What is your skill level with HTML and CSS?
If Design view skills only, spend some time learning HTML
well enough to be
able to work with tables in Standard mode.
If Code view but no CSS, read the table tutorials at the DW
FAQ link in my
signature.
If CSS then just use a page background color with a
non-tiling centered
background image for your masthead.
And a suggestion? Forget all you ever knew about layers for
the time
being....

What's the best way to setup a media server/central storage for all of my?

I was wondering what the best way to achieve a central media server for all my iTunes content + iPhoto's, calendar syncing and contact sharing is? This is what I currently have:
iMac 20" Aluminum + External HD Backup (kids)
Macbook Black (wife)
Macbook Pro 15" (me)
Airport Extreme 802.11n (obvious)
TimeCapsule 1TB (wifi backup for wife/me)
I would like to replace my PC in my office with a brand new Mac Pro Nehalem 8-Core, 8GB Ram, and 4TB, and replace my PC laptop in my living room attached to my tv, with an Apple TV.
I want to centralize all our Photos from vacations, etc. Music, videos, movies, that are currently split up over wife's macbook, kids imac and my macbook pro onto my soon to be purchased Mac Pro.
I want to be able to stream everything from my living room via Apple TV for when guests come over, dinner parties, etc. (plus I love apple and it keeps things clean)
I'm currently using MobileMe to sync all of our Calendars and Contacts with my main account, which is great, but MobileMe doesn't sync to family members accounts =
What would I need to do to centralize all this onto my future Mac Pro so that everyone has access all the time when they are home and the key here is, modify/update/change from their machines and sync it back/update it on the Mac Pro.
Also, I'm hoping Snow Leopard has some changes to iTunes to make this a little more possible, since we're right around the corner from this release. I don't really want to spend an additional $900+ on Snow Leopard Server to have to achieve these results, but if it makes it easier, and does the job, then I guess I might. This is all speculation though, since it's not out yet. I'd like to get this all sorted and setup within the next month.
I was considering a Drobo, they say they can throw up iTunes Server but, I appreciate everyone for reading this, and taking the time to respond!
Thanks!

I'm in the process of setting up a smaller (and cheaper) but somewhat similar setup to what you want to do, so maybe one example might help point you in the right direction. My needs consist of a centralized location for data storage, which will include iPhoto libraries (I keep two separate ones), iTunes (which I also want served to the home theater system), something other than my laptop to play internet videos and downloaded content on my TV, all with ideally the lowest cost and energy use possible.
My solution was the new Mini with a FW800 external drive as the server/media hub and Airport gigabit as the network hub (it also handles the backup drive).
FW800 is fast enough to saturate a gigabit ethernet link, so I don't consider that much of a bottleneck. The Mini then has iTunes running at all times with its centralized library on it; it is hooked to the home theater via HDMI-DVI video and optical audio, so it can play music and also handle videos when desired; Front Row with the Apple remote is close enough to an AppleTV that I think it handles that well, and it's more full-featured than an AppleTV. It can further be used to display photos/slideshows/whatever on the TV for guests or such, or to surf from the couch with a wireless mouse/keyboard. You can also toss in an EyeTV for $150 and use that as a DVR if you feel like it.
When I want to edit photos or such on my desktop, the gigabit link is fast enough that I can run iPhoto without noticing any significant slowdown. Its also usable over wireless, though I have a dangling extra network cable to plug into a laptop for full gigabit speed if need be. iTunes, of course, shares its library, which can be played from any of the computers in the house if so desired (iPhoto can do that too if you just want to display).
If I REALLY wanted top speed (though I've even done video editing in iMovie via ethernet without issue), I could use a third party synch app (I like Sync) to mirror any of the content from the mini server to a local drive; this works fine with anything but multi-way synching, such as address books being modified in different locations. I'd probably try to set up one of those Mobile Me clone systems or use a 3rd party app if I needed to do that.
Again, maybe this isn't powerful enough or "synched" enough in terms of local storage for your taste, but the advantage is that a Mini uses a minute fraction of the power of a Mac Pro, so you're saving a lot on electricity if the computer will be powered up at all times as a server, and it's also a lot more full-featured as a home theater media hub than an AppleTV. And, heck, the thing is about as well equipped as my old top-of-the-line G5 tower for a 5th the cost and 1/15th the power and noise.

Migrated new MBPro = slow . Best way to start again without same problem

Hi
I bought a Macbook Pro and on bootup I put my old powerbook with all my data into firewire mode and just migrated things across.
I have been very disappointed with the MBPro speed and have tried to clean it up a bit as I am assuming that Migrating things across has caused this slowness.
I am wanting to do a fresh install but need to get the critical things across
these include my Photo Library in iPhoto and My emails and my iTunes library and my address book. and bookmarks.
I will start from scratch with all the extra applications I have
So when I reinstall what is the best way to achieve this ?
I dont have .Mac accounts but I do have an external firewire hard drive.
To explain where the system is slow it is mainly on boot up and loading for the first time. I checked what was running and everything loaded is a UB so PPC stuff using Rossetta. The spec on the MBPro is standard with the 160gb drive. The powerbook is a 1.5ghz with and upgraded 7200 rpm drive. So I also assume that the PBook drive is a fraction faster but as everything else is way faster in the MBPro I would of though that this would still make the MBPro at least as fast to boot and load things.
It is not alot slower just a fraction but it is noticable. Once loaded the system seems fine and any cpu intensive stuff is way way faster
Thanks

slow startup could be a sign of directory damage, as normal part of the boot process is doing a directory check. booting up on the intel should be much faster, not the other way around. have you tried booting to the install disk and running disk repair?? http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214 that may be all that is needed to get the boot faster. as well, do you have anything hooked up to the mbpro during startup?? that could also be a factor. as well, if you have not done firmware updates for the mbpro, you should do that as well. this article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303880 gives up-to-date firmware versions and how to locate them on your mac. from what i gather there are limits in sharing one fw drive between a power pc and intel mac. see this thread. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2950422&#2950422 here is the macosx hints discussion on creating a volume bootable by both types of computers. http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060322054212363&query=firewire%2B drive%2Bintel however, you would have to have the space available on the drive, and the inclination to put two different versions (one power pc, one intel!) of the os on one drive, so both volumes are bootable, one with each computer.
