10.5.8 Firewall settings- need more info about

Ok, I know that "Allow all incoming connections" does just that: nothing is refused.
And I am clear on "allow only essential services" blocks everything except for some basic stuff.
My question is this: on "set access for specific services and applications," what happens when you select that and haven't added anything down below? Does it just allow all incoming until you specifically set that up?? Or, does it still only allow essential services but ask you as things come up?
Lastly, Even with "allow only essential services," you can still + things below. Does setting number 2 respect the items listed below?

Well, you will just need to see. I cannot tell you more than what's in the article. I don't use the OS X firewall. I have a hardware router that has its own built-in firewall so using the one in OS X seems unnecessarily redundant. My home network is all Ethernet. My wireless setup is used sparingly and uses WPA2 security. I do not open up the computer for any form of public access like FTP, web sharing, etc. so I see no need for anything more than what I have. I've never had occasion to turn on the OS X firewall. No one has had occasion to hack into my computers in 28 years. I filter spam, I don't click on strange web page links, I don't respond to phishing emails or web sites. But then my situation doesn't allow for much if any opportunity to outside hackers. Your situation may be substantially different.

  • Need more info about "NestedContainer" violation

    Hello,
    I have a "NestedContainer" violation for a Canvas container in my application. Compared to the application's root container it is located at level 6 i.e. nested in 5 other parent containers. However at the same time I have other containers (again Canvases) which are even deeper nested for example at level 8 compared to the root container.
    I need more information when exactly the "NestedContainer" violation is triggered so I fix my code if needed and submit a bug for FlexPMD in case the rule is not implemented as designed.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    I would like to share an example but I need to create it since I don't want to post the actual source code.
    Simply copying the problem mxml file under another name doesn't work because it is put outside its container and then the violation is not generated.
    If I have to create an example it might be too time consuming to achieve these:
    - keep the same component hierarchy
    - keep the problem present
    - keep the example clean from the real source code
    That's why I wanted to get more info when this violation is triggered and hopefully create an example faster.

  • Need more info about "AlertShow" violation

    Hello,
    First of all thanks for the great tool! It was really something we all missed.
    I have a question related to the "AlertShow" violation. I got several such violations and the description says
    "Do not call Alert.show directly.. You should not Alert.show() directly. If an error occurred in the system, you should probably use an ErrorManager to have a consistent way to manage those errors".
    What exactly was meant by this violation? Could you, please provide more details why this violation pops up and how it is expected to be fixed.
    Thank you!

    PMD found these Alerts in my code too. I fail to see what is wrong with that.
    What would an ErrorManager do more than report the error and wait for OK to know that the user saw it?
    What to do after the error depends entirely on the place the error occurred, and
    cannot be dealt with in a general way. Except maybe for logging it for later examination. Is that what you mean?

  • Need more Info about "Load transactional data when master data not loaded"

    Hi,
    Can you please explain me this option in the infopackage " Load transactional data when master data is not loaded"....
    Say i load a transactional data record which has a material no. AAAXX.
    In the fact table, the material no. is replaced with the corresp. DIM ID.
    Now, assume that there is no entry for this Material no.
    AAAXX in the master data table...so no DIM ID for it..
    How is it then stored in the fact table ?
    Hope i have managed to explain the scenario..
    Thanks in advance,
    Punkuj

    Hello Punkuj K,
    How r u ?
    No, if the entry for that Material Number "AAAXX" is not there in the Master Data then it will create a SIDs & DIMs ID for that & Transaction Data will be loaded.
    Use
    Choose this indicator if you want to always update the data, even if no master data for the navigation attributes of the loaded records exists. The master data is generated from the loaded transaction data. The system draws SIDs. You can subsequently load the master data.
    Dependencies
    The texts, attributes, and hierarchies are not recognized by the system. Load the texts / attributes / hierarchies for the corresponding InfoObjects separately.
    This function corresponds to the update. Possible errors when reading the master data into the update rules are not associated with this indicator.
    Recommendation
    We recommended loading the master data into the productive systems in advance. Select this indicator especially in test systems.
    Best Regards....

  • Need more info on EO,VO and AM *.java files

    HI,
    Friends and experts I need your help in learning OAF.
    I am new to OAF and want to know more info about the following java classes.
    When I created a simple search page with EO, VO and AM, the following java classes are created.
    I want to know
    what is it?
    what we do with that ?
    where we use that?
    Any sample scripts if possible?
    EOImpl.java
    Please correct me if I am wrong,I know that we use this one for manipulating data for a particular row ,operations such as getattribut,setattribute, delete ,update, insert. There are various methods got created when you create the EO if you select options on the " Generate Method " during step 4 on EO wizard.
    EOCollImpl.java
    VOImpl.java
    ViewRowImpl
    AMImpl.java
    Thanks
    Sri.

    Hi Sri ,
    EO :
    Entity Objects are basically based on one table which encapsulate the business rules. These objects are used by OAF page to perform update/insert/delete operations .
    Inside EOImpl.java you will find setter() and getter () methods in java we call it as accessor and mutator , each attribute in EO is mapped to column in the data base table .
    You can also generate a create () method Validate () method .
    Eg : To get the sequence value in OAF you can use Create() method .
    VO :
    VOImpl (VO) : It just consist of an Data base sql query , you might have noticed while executing a query eg : VO.executeQuery() ;
    to perform any validation it provides iteration over and access to the view rows in its result set.
    VoRowImpl : Represents a single row in a view object .
    You will understand better when you writing a code using voimpl /voRowimpl objects
    AmImpl :
    It basically performs the Business logic , we will define all our methods to implement business logic .
    Eg : you can call a method from controller and define the method Amimpl.java , you can use of initializing the query or
    you do DML operation , etc ...
    In summery : The main reason why we have java file distribute across EO , VO , AM is because OAF is designed with MVC design pattern ,
    in other words we have to isolate the responsibility of code in each layer ( Model , View , Controller ) .Its bad practice to write
    the entire code in one single class file .
    Eg : Controller class should accept the parameter from user and pass these parameters BC4J files ( AMImpl.java ) and its Job of the AMImpl.java
    to perform the business logic and return the result back to to controller .
    To enforce the coding standard of MVC design pattern we have these java files EO , VO , AM , CO . with more practice you will understand the various
    methods defined in each of these java files .

  • Need more info abt the functions of each classes in Workflow API's of BPEL

    Need more information about the functions of each method of the classes in Workflow API's of BPEL
    The Java documentation of the workflow API (especially Identity Service classes) is having a one liner explanation for the methods of each class. We need to implement our own Identity Service that implements the BPMIdentityService interface. We are not able to map the function of each methods of this interface to what our security subsystem provides. We feel that we need more detailed information about what each method of each class is doing internally so that we can map to whatever our security subsystem provides.
    The BPEL Developers Guide does not talk about the functionality of each methods of this interface. If anybody can guide me to look into some documentation that has this information or if anybody has this information, then please do the necessary help.

    There is a log in a live system where it is possible to see every minute the following error:

    I know that error can happen mainly when:
    1. Trying to insert caracter field in a numeric column
    2. Using in the wrong way the function to_date()
    I need more information about that error, what can be causing the error in the system and why. Is it possible to see more information about the last errors in Oracle? For example, if a query produces an error... is it possible to see in Oracle the error and the query that caused the error?

  • How do I find out my keychain password? Need more info fast about this

    My computer started to get really slow, so I looked what I could do to make it faster again. After searching I found that the safari content was high and that I should delete it to make it less laggy and slow. Long story short I ended up deleting my saved passwords on safari...Looking into more info, I found out that I needed to get to Keychain Access. I got to Keychain access, found all the passwords.
    My question..
    •How do I get them out of Keychain?
    •If I end up needing my password for Keychain, how do I find that out? I have the like start up CD, but I dont remember ever making a password.
    •And if I do retreive my Keychain Password some how, will that delete everything stored in Keychain? I would have just tried it, but its a lot of passwords I CAN NOT lose...
    Please help :/
    Thanks!

    Never mind the screenshot.
    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • 6358629 SSLSocket.close() / read() deadlock  - need more info

    Java 1.5.0_14 is documented as having this fix ....
    "6358629 jsse runtime SSLSocket.close() and SSLSocket.read() deadlock "
    I cannot find this bug in the bug db and the sun page says sometimes bugs don't show up for security reasons.
    The complete absense of info on this bug other than its title means I cannot tell whether this is the same bug I am seeing randomly in production.
    Given that I cannot replicate the problem in a reproducable test case I need sufficient info to justify upgrading the prod VM and risk introducing new bugs in an otherwise stable platform.
    Is there any way to get more info on this bug ?
    Anyone seen a problem like this in their system?
    Is it possible Sun has just hidden the bug for no good reason?
    Any help appreciated.

    Hello, thank you very much for your information.
    I had met same bug on Linux.
    java version "1.6.0_11"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode)
    My workaround is here. Closing file descriptor directry by calling private native method( closeSocket0 of java.net.PlainSocketImpl ) using reflection.
    It works well on my environment.
    public static void closeNativeSocket( Socket socket )
    try
    Object object = socket;
    String fieldName = "impl";
    Field field = null;
    Method method = null;
    Class clazz;
    clazz = Class.forName( "java.net.Socket" );
    field = clazz.getDeclaredField( fieldName );
    field.setAccessible( true );
    object = field.get( object );
    clazz = Class.forName( "java.net.PlainSocketImpl" );
    method = clazz.getDeclaredMethod( "socketClose0", new Class[] { Boolean.TYPE } );
    method.setAccessible( true );

  • Need more info on adding user than is in UserGuide

    Before I send an invitation to someone to be a user and access one of my computers, I need more information on how that works that is provided in the LMI Pro User Guide.  Would really like to actually have RTV conversation with someone familiar with it (having done it), but it that's impossible, here goes. 1Do I have to give him the PW for my entire account, do I specify a separate PW for him, or does he set it when accepting the invitation ? 2
    Will he have to know the UN & PW of the target computer or will he just be "in" by virtue of the LMI Pro account ? 3Will he have all the remote functionality I have - Remote Control, File Manager, etc ? May have more questions later so I would really appreciate a contact who has used this before.  

     
    Hello  ,
    Thanks for posting your query here! 
    1 - When you invit a secondary user with a Pro account, this person will click on the link invitation and be prompted to login/create and account with his own username (email address) and own password - so you will not share yours
    2 - As for the target computer, the username/password of the session  or the acccess code (according to the settings) need to be known indeed.
    3-  The remote functionalities are set on target computers , therefore secondary users would have the ability to do File Transfer and remote printing. 
    Let me know if that clarifies the situation for you and feel free to get back to me if you have further questions!
