Accessing Disabled Accounts via ssh

We have user accounts on our OS X Tiger Server where the user has installed a public key into their ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.
The problem:
If I uncheck "access account" in Workgroup Manager for one of those users, they can still login to the server via ssh, authenticating with their private key.
So, how can I truly disable access to an account that has a key pair installed for ssh?
Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Have you tried using WGM to change their login shell to "none"?

CiscoView v5.5 terminal access to devices via SSH

I have just installed all of the components for VMS v2.3. CiscoView 5.5 is one of those components that I am attempting to configure for SSH terminal access. The default terminal connection method to devices is Telnet.
Is there a way to configure CiscoView to terminal using SSH v1.99 and fallback to Telnet if the end device does not support SSH?

Choose Device Manager > Administration > Cisco View Server Admin > Debug options and display log. In the window on the right with the name "Configure CiscoView Server Trace Settings," check the SNMP Trace and Activity Trace check boxes.
Click View Trace. A new window opens that shows all the SNMP activity between the device and the server once you have opened the device in CiscoView

in my opinion, the best way is to do the job on a server...
the server will do the interface between the mailer and the MIDlet
i explain:
the MIDlet will call a servlet ( BridgeToMailer ) with https connection (see http://developers.sun.com/mobility/allarticles/#networking)
the BridgeToMailer servlet will do all the requests and reformat the mails to be available on
a mobile.

How to enable fast user switching remotely via SSH?

There is a Mac which at the moment doesn't allow fast user switching. I have admin account on this Mac. Currently, another user is logged in, so I can access the Mac only via SSH. I don't want to destroy the session of that user otherwise the user can loose important data.
Can I enable fast user switching by accessing the Mac via SSH?

Try this:
defaults write /Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences MultipleSessionEnabled -bool YES

I recently changed my Apple ID. When I try to change my iCloud account on my Mac. I cannot access the account. I've changed the password once already. Any suggestions? My iPhone's account is fine.

I recently changed my Apple ID. When I try to make changes to my iCloud account on my Mac., I cannot access the account via System Preferences. I've changed the password once already. My iPhone's iCloud account is fine. At this point my iCloud account no longer is working with my Mac. Does anybody have any suggestions?

I finally figured out the answer to my own question. I created a new iCloud account on my Mac. Problem solved!

I cant access my account

evry time i try to access my account via mobile it then requires a yahoo username bt i dont have any yahoo account

Which account do you mean? Ovi Mail recently changed ownership (?) to Yahoo Mail. If this is the account you mean, you should be able to log in with your old Ovi Mail username and password.

To Restrict SQL account from accessing Sql server via SSMS

Hi All,
We are planning to tighten the security of our SQL Server.
In the initial phase, we want to restrict all the SQL accounts(except sa) from accessing SQL Server via SSMS
Since the SQL passwords are used in the connection strings(plain text) of our .NET Applications, developers are able to see it and they are accessing SQL server through SSMS with the credentials in the connection string.
The requirement is, SQL accounts should only be accessing the databases through .NET applications and not through any other applications like SSMS, SQLCMD...etc
1) We tried "Logon Trigger", but later we came to know that there is security breach in it.
2) Application Roles - Password is plain text, again back to square one.
We are looking for an alternate. Please share some ideas.
Thanks & Regards,
K.P.Senthil Kumar

The basic presumption here is that there is on way you can tie a connection to an application as such. There is app_name(), but since this is passed from the application, the application can call itself whatever you want.
As long as it is only a matter of keeping business users out, you can solve the issue with some three-tiered solution. Either by having a true middle layer, or just having a web server, or the application running on Terminal Server or Citrix.
But you want to keep the developers out who work with the code. That makes it difficult to lock them out of the middle layer.
Then again, you say "our SQL Server" is that singular? Don't you have more than one SQL Server? One for developement, one for test and one for production? If you only want to keep the devs out from development, you have different usernames
and password for different environments, and they are read from config files. The config files for production should be well-protected.
By the way, only permitting sa from logging in from SSMS is bad idea. Rather, you should disable sa, and everyone should log in with their individual Windows account. And those who should perform system-administration tasks should be member of sysadmin.

Disable Non-Root Connections to WindowServer via SSH

I recall that in previous versions of Mac OS, one could not start an application in another user's workspace via SSH unless they were root, e.g. by running /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari at the prompt. The error given was something about being unable to make a connection to the windowserver. Root privileges were required to do so.
However, I note that now in Mountain Lion I can run, for example, the previous command and my Safari will pop up in the session of the currently logged in user, neither of us being root or even administators.
Is there a way to revert to the old behaviour (without disabling Remote Login, obviously)? I note some potential for evil, e.g. "/Applications/Utilities/Vine\ Server.app/Contents/MacOS/Vine\ Server &" to start a VNC server and, violá! surreptitious monitoring/control of active session...

This was previously not possible.
It has always been possible via the open(1) command. In any case, that doesn't matter. SSH access is unlimited access, unless you allow only public-key logins and specify a command to be executed in the authorized_hosts file. There is no security issue here.

Disabled User, Mobile-Device (Active Sync) still has Access 24h after disabling Account

Hello,
i encountered following issue:
I disabled an User in AD, but the mobile devices of the corresponding User still had access even 24h after disabling the account (iphone 5s, Blackberry Q10). My predecessor was known to abuse some access rights (suspicious gpos, phantom users with way to
many rights, private folder access...).
Our System: Windows 2008 R2 + Exchange 2010 SP3
Are there any hidden settings (in Exchange powershell, ADSI-Settings etc...) to extend the access-validity of mobile devices?
Or is this a normal behaviour?
Thank you and best regards,
Georg

The best way to stop a user from accessing their email via a mobile device when the account is going to be disabled is to go to their account and remove Active Sync from their mailbox. To do so, go to Recipient Configuration, Mailboxes, properties
of the user, Mailbox Features and disable Exchange ActiveSync. then disable the user. Force Active Directory replication as well. Then the disabled user should no longer have access. You can even remove device partnerships or wipe their
device as well.

How can a parent restrict a child's access to a PARENT'S PRE-EXSISTING iTunes account via iCloud's Family Sharing Program?

How can a parent restrict a child's access to a PARENT'S PRE-EXSISTING iTunes account via iCloud's Family Sharing Program? To explain further... I have a young son who is on my iCloud family sharing program... I am excited to be able to share SOME of my music in my iTunes library, but there are some songs and music videos that are not age appropriate for him and currently there is no way to restrict him from viewing and downloading anything off of my iTunes library. Yes, I suppose I can delete the songs he shouldn't have access to, but I don't think I should have to do that... I paid for them and still like them and listen to them while I work out or am without my kids. Is there a way for me to personally select which songs/videos I would like to "hide" from my children in an effort to shield them from inappropriate content?

Hello ggg39,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have some content in your iTunes library that you would like to restrict access for the child set up on Family Sharing with you. To do this, you can set restrictions on the child’s device as described in the attached article.
Family Sharing - Apple Support
Now kids under 13 can have their own Apple IDs. As a parent or legal guardian, the family organizer can create an Apple ID for a child and add the child to the family group automatically. Ask to Buy is turned on by default, and the organizer can also limit the content kids have access to on their devices through Restrictions on an iOS device or parental controls in OS X and iTunes.
For more information on restrictions and how to set them up, please reference the next attached article.
About Restrictions (parental controls) on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Have a great day,
Joe

How do I set up an administrator account so my daughter who is under 13 , so she can access itunes herself. Main access will be via itunes vouchers . I don't want to create credit card access.

There is no such account. The iPod is really a one-user device
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
You can then redeem a gift card(s) into the account

How can I verify my iCloud account via email, when I can't access my icloud email without verifying my account?

I have setup a new cloud ID.
I now need to verify my account via email.
How can I do this when I can't access my iCloud email without verifying account?

Did you click the Verify Now link in the verification email from Apple (see image below)? If not, make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Also make sure you check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

My Email Inbox is blank when accessing account via internet

When I sign into my account via work computer (via internet) my inbox is blank.
Help!

Do you have a pop3 client (such as Outlook Express or Mac Mail) set up on a computer somwhere? Do you access your mail via any mobile devices?
Odds are you need to check a box somewhere for leave a copy of messages on the server. If you don't have any devices set up to pull your mail, change your password.

How can a network account log on via ssh to run jobs?

We have a small setup with a tiger server and snow leopard clients. Each user has their own machine, but we have some communal mac pro machines. A lot of the software we run uses xwindows and I would like to have a method that allowed the users to ssh to these number crunching machines and run their parallel code at the same time, without having to log on using the apple log in window.
The problem: The home directory is mounted at log in and is only readable for the person who physically logs in at that computer, so if a network user logis in via ssh they cannot see their home directory, and the authentication for xwindows screws up and there is no display.
How can I make my client machines mount the home directory properly, and in a readable way, so that my network users can ssh to various client machines and have all their data available?
I look forward to being illuminated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
If you want others to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account(s). In the other account(s), enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in their source pane.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
