VM Role Authoring Tool - Disable AdminCredential username and password in the UI and provide hardcoded value

I am want to keep AdminCredential as a parameter in VM Role Authoring Tool but I do not want user to be able to able to provide the password. As an Enterprise, we have a password policy that we use for Admin Password. The reason i want to keep it as an parameter
is because if we ever decide to change the policy, i do not have to go back and change it at 100 places it was used. I just change the parameter value and it gets applied everywhere.
This is what i have tried so far:
I added the AdminCredential parameter in the separate category. I made
Configurable to No and provided DefaultValue
in the format Administrator:Password1 in the parameter and imported the definition in the Admin Portal. Now Administrator:Password1 shows up in the username field and password is still editable.
In short, if possible, i do not want users to see the AdminCredential parameter. If i cannot hide the parameter, i want to disable username and password fields and provide hard coded value for it.
Is there a way to achieve what i am trying to do?

The assumption with Azure Pack is that the OS is Server and the OS has been generalized.
Now, in the Azure Pack world this local admin credential is actually a special credential.  You cannot take it away, but you can set a default value in the designer.
If a default value is set, you may be able to hide it from the view definition (I am not sure, since this is a special parameter), but you cannot remove the parameter from the resource itself.
And a credential in Azure Pack gets interpreted to a username plus password string.
I have added secondary accounts that capture a password string and a username (as strings, not credentials).  But again, I am not positive that this is allowed.
Sorry for not having a straight answer, maybe someone will jump in with a better one.

  • In some pages I keep receiving this message: "The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"".

    In my company, I used FF for sometime now.
    I had some problem in the beginning, but using the proxy IP and Domain\Username + Password I was able to navigate.
    Ever since I tried FF4.x and FF5.x... I started to receive the following message:
    The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"
    Even after inserting the Domain\Username and the Password I keep receiving the same error. In FF3.xx I was able to use the proxy.
    Don't know what to do any more there are several pages that have this problem.

    Some... don't have any problem:
    http://batracer.com
    http://www.youtube.com
    Even when I try to see the extensions I get this error. This is so weird!!!
    For now... I have switched to Chrome, every new version of FF that is released I try it to see if the problem is gone. But, with no luck until now! :(

    I did have this problem with proxy moz-proxy prompt for username and password. In my case it was for websites hosted not on the internet but on the local corporate intranet. I solved my problem by doing the following action:
    Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings: add the local website to the "No Proxy For:" field.
    I hope this will help some of you out there that have manually configured their proxy settings. Also a tip if you need to turn on and off proxy settings I recommend using "Quick Proxy" add-on.

Every time i'm browsing internet, Authentication Required windows pop up like 4-7 times a day! randomly! it says "the proxy web2.ucsd.edu:3128 is requesting a username and password.

  • I'm trying to access a forum that requires a user name and password.  When I do it on my mac it tells me the password is incorrect but when I do it on my iPad, I can access it without any problem.  I can confirm the username and password are the same

    I am trying to access a forum for which you need a username and password but it keeps telling me the username/password i've entered are incorrect.  Bizarrely, when I enter the same username/password combination on my iPad, it grants access without any problem. 
    What could be causing this, is it an issue with cookies, caches or similar.  How can I resolve it?  The forum administrator is at a loss as to what the problem is.

    Try the following steps in Safari to see if they help:
    1) First try clearing the Safari cache.  To do this pull down the Safari menu and select 'Empty cache...', then try logging into the site again.
    2) If the issue continues then reset Safari by pulling down the Safari menu and select'Reset Safari...'. You will be presented with a list of items that can be reset. I suggest selecting the 'Reset saved names and passwords', and 'Remove all website data' options at a minimum.
    Here is a list of the options and what they do. I pulled it from the Safari help page.
    Clear history:
    Clears the list of webpages you viewed.
    Reset Top Sites:
    Clears any changes you made to Top Sites, such as adding or pinning sites. If you also clear your history, your Top Sites page reverts to showing the webpage previews displayed when you first installed Safari.
    Remove all webpage preview images:
    Clears any thumbnail images Safari saved of webpages you viewed.
    Clear the Downloads window:
    Clears the list of files you downloaded from websites. Only the names are removed; the files themselves are still on your disk until you remove them.
    Remove all website icons:
    Removes website icons, which are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the Safari address field and bookmarks list, and other places. These icons are stored on your computer.
    Remove saved names and passwords:
    Removes user names and passwords that Safari automatically fills in at websites that require them (if the AutoFill feature is turned on).
    Remove other AutoFill form text:
    Removes some personal information, such as telephone numbers, that Safari uses to automatically fill in forms on webpages (if the AutoFill feature is turned on). Removing AutoFill information does not remove information from your address book.
    Close all Safari windows:
    If you don’t close all Safari windows, someone could use the Back and Forward buttons to view the webpages you visited.
    Reset all location warnings:
    Clears any information websites saved about your location.
    Remove all website data:
    Removes cookies, tracking information, and other data that websites stored on your computer.

  • I am currently restoring my Ipod 5 however half way through recovering my ipod 5 iTunes say's "locked with a password unlock ipod etc... " and turns on the iPod and my iPod is still disabled what do i do?

    I am currently restoring my ipod 5 however half way through re-covering my ipod 5 Itunes says "locked with a password unlock ipod etc..." and turns on the ipod and my ipod is still disabled...
    what do i do??

    Try and force it into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • How to pass username and password with the portal url

    i want to access portal from my web site. i have created username and password fields in my web page. when submited , my portal page should open. so how to pass username and password with the portal url.

    This is not straightforward; but it is doable.
    First tell us about your portal version; portal 10.1.4 has a slightly different method of doing it and the pre-10g portals were completely different animals.
    And if you are in AS Rel 2, then the most important document for you would probably be the following:
    [Creating Deployment Specific Pages| http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/idmanage.1012/b14078/custom.htm#i1015535]
    You might want to use it in conjunction with some metalink notes about your portal version and such a login page.
    hope that helps!

  • TS1702 How do change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password for the apps store?

    How do you change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password in order to get updated apps from the app store?

    How do you change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password in order to get updated apps from the app store?
    Do you mean you kept the same account but you only updated your AppleID?
    Just log out and log back in with new ID.
    Note that the AppleID is embedded into the item at purchase and cannot be changed.
    However, when you change your AppleID, it will link the old account name to the new account name so you will not have any problems updating apps using the new AppleID.

  • Security issue: parameters username and password in the jbo:ApplicationModule

    Hello,
    in the <jbo:ApplicationModule> tag, you can give parameters for username and password, Then the .jsp connects to the DB via the username/password. Alternativly, You can provide this within the <Module>.properties file.
    Now the question: Isn't this a security hole? I mean, is it under all circumstances impossible, that the source-code can be delivered by the web-server or that the byte-code from the servlet (compiled from .jsp) can be "restringed"?
    Are there other ways to protect the credentials for accessing the ORACLE DB?
    Michael

    Hi John
    thank You very much. You wrote
    BC4J provides a number of mechanisms for specifying the DB username and password that do not require
    the password to be stored in a JSP page. By default, in 9.0.2, the DB password is stored in
    a BC4J configuration (persisted in a bc4j.xcfg file), which should be secured at the customer site. I've forgotten to mention our environment is SuSE7.2, DB 8.1.7.3, iAS 1.0.2.2, Portal 3.0.9.8.
    For simplicity we would like to use the first method via bc4j.xcfg, But our bc4j.xcfg looks as follows
    <quote>
    <BC4JConfig>
    <AppModuleConfigBag>
    <AppModuleConfig name="OPKv1ModuleLocal">
    <ApplicationName>de.condor.OPKv1.OPKv1Module</ApplicationName>
    <DeployPlatform>LOCAL</DeployPlatform>
    <JDBCName>WEBAPP_NETx</JDBCName>
    <jbo.project>de.condor.OPKv1.opkv1PRJ</jbo.project>
    </AppModuleConfig>
    </AppModuleConfigBag>
    </BC4JConfig>
    </quote>
    So the question is, where to leave schema/password?JDeveloper should have also generated a connection description in the same file named WEBAPP_NET. This
    named connection should contain the relevant elements. It is not recommended that you edit this file directly. The
    configuration editor and/or the connection editor should be used instead.
    Hope this helps.
