Accessing the Admin API via Linux (and hopefully Python)
I have been looking through the available documentation and past forum
entries but I see nothing really on point.
It is possible to have a complete GW system on Linux, from server to
client. So if it is possible to administer a GW system from Linux using
Console One, it should be possible to access the API from Linux.
Can anyone point me towards the appropriate documentaion? Thanks

All a matter of resources, Bob. They've had an admin api under
development for years, just didn't have time to make it ready for Bonsai.
You are correct, however you must have a win32 box (or try wine, but I
doubt that's worth it). One friend of mine then wrappered the whole
thing in a SOAP service, so he could mostly avoid thinking about windows.

I need to know a couple of things, but y'all may not have all the answers I need.
First, I need to know how to retrieve the mail files from Mail.app and from Entourage 2004. I don't know if this is a valid asusmption, but in my experience with Windows, I know that Outlook keeps everything in a single monolithic .PST file. Is this the case with either Mail.app or with Entourage?
Second, I need to know how to access said mail files in a Linux mail app. The mail from Mail.app is more important than that from Entourage, so it has to take priority. Will I need some sort of converter program, or is there enough similarity between Mail.app and one of the Linux mail applications that I can simply import it? (BTW, I'm running Ubuntu Linux 11.04 on my Linux netbook. I wish there was some way I could get Snow Leopard on here.)
Any advice on any of this problem will be extremely helpful. Thanks.PastorLarry wrote:

I have it running on one of my single core netbooks.
WIth your other problem, just borrow a Mac temporariy, drag a enclosure to a Apple Store and use one of theirs, they don't mind as they have Deep Freeze installed on all their machines so changes don't stick upon rebooting. -
Is there any work going on to provide the equivalent of the admin api via
soap?
Thanks,
JohanJohan,
Yes, there is a effort taking place in this area. No official release dates
have been announced.

I have signed out of itunes and now cannot sign in again.I feel you pain i'm haveing the same problems here.
iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The
network connection timed out.
Make sure your network settings are correct and your network
connection is active, then try again.
does anyone plz have some insight for us. -
Reading terms and conditions page 3 of new account for iTunes Store before I put in US$ voucher purchased in Zimbabwe. If I'm traveling world wide, willI I still be able to access the US services via this same account?
You can only use the US store if you are in the US with a US billing address on your account - the US store's terms of use (and they will be similar for all countries) :
The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance. -

How to set owner-only access file permissions both on Linux and Windows
Hi everybody.
I have the following problem. I need to store some private user information in file system. So I need to set owner-only access permissions for some directory in user home. I did not find API for doing this. As I understand this is platform specific thing. Could anybody tell me how can I do this both on Linux and Windows?
Thank you in advance.More ideas just came back to me (of something I did before)
Each OS requires a different control.
For Windows you will need to set the .policy file for each user (a pain if you have more than a dozen of clients) granting access (R or RW) to files/directories.
Then you have to write some native code (access via JNI) to access/modify your authorization.
A more professional solution that I used was J-Integra (other similar tool exist).
Basically it is a bridge between Java and COM. It magically give you access to the COM API from Java (and vice versa).
In my case it was to read/write/modify Winword documents transfered between PC and server.
From memory you have to run the com2java.exe to build the bridge (classes in Java language) between the 2 families. Compile those classes and you have a "driver" for the COM (Microsoft Objects).
Here I must confess my ignorance on Microsoft.
Those COM objets must give you some easy/integrated access to the API for LDAP or Microsoft Active Directory Service (for centralize control with more complex setup). -
Accessing the photoshop api from flash.. within a photoshop window?
I should maybe ask this in scripting.. but it's some ways related to the SDK. I dont want to crosspost.. if the feature exist, it's very likely that SDK developpers are aware of this (ps: i havent downloaded the sdk since the beta)
I had the opportunity to show a bit our project to Mike Downey from Adobe at FITC/Toronto as it's related in some way to Apollo. We use realbasic for this application (flash/html/css/javascript) and we also use Realbasic, even with all the imperfections the software has, to create visual tools to call some Applescript.
That's how i implemented the fake palette i mentionned here or in scripting forum. To me, there was a huge benefit compared to implementing a dialog with the SDK (wich doesnt support developping a palette anyway).
What i would be really happy to see is an integration like it has been done with jsfl in flash (extensibility). Kind of a way for us to really have a common language for intranet, production tools and final release (web or cd). (leverage the skills like Adobe say to sell Apollo)
So in extensibility in case some of you are not aware of the feature, you can create a window that has a flash content in it and there is a mecanism to call the javascript api of flash (authoring environnement). By exemple, you can have a window in flash authoring environnement that behave like other windows (ie. dockable and all)... that has a flash interface and communicated with a database.. so you can have a script that connect to a database and then create shapes in the authoring environnement... It's a very great tool for integrated production environnement..
So, Mike Downey mentionned to me that i was present in CS3!? (when i told him that i would have been great to have Apollo/Flash being able to access the Photoshop Api) Is it true? Where is it documented? I remember seing it mentioned in the SDK survey... Or maybe it's just possible to do it via external command..so it's not integrated in a window of photoshop)?
Sorry if it's not clear... but i would be really happy to hear more about that... It would be great to have this even if it's not Applescript compatible (i could use xml tools in the api of flash)...Well.. i finally have found the feature in the sample folder of javascript scripting of cs3. You really can have a flash interface to call you scripts.
That will be a HUGE improvement for javascript scripter and i would not be surprised that it will encourage people to develop more tools.
The big minus for me, unless it's something i havent found yet, it looks like the dialog is only available from calling the script.. so the dialog is modal... really not as cool as Flash extensibility integration, but that's a start. :(
I repost this on Scripting forum as i now know it's related to scripting...
I still have hope for something more advanced... the "KnowHow" thing (wich i havent tried yet) http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/knowhow/) is really a good exemple of palette/feature integration that i wish was possible in photoshop... -
Conditional Mapping with script using BlOCKPROC to access the HFM API
Hello,
following problem. During the mapping/validation I need to map certain custom1 members to None if the Top Member is None and let it be if not None. This allocation depends on the account. Reading through the documentation I stumbled across conditional mapping.
So in the Custom1 map type Like I defined following:
Rule Name: C1_Script
Rule Definition: CXXX*
TargetCustom1: #Script
In the script I try to achieve to get the Custom1 Top member for the account! The HFM API offers this function(fGetCustomTopMember) and with varValue(14) I get my TargetAccount. So everything I need seems to be there.
Only problem is I need to use the BlOCKPROC to access the HFM API provided through the adapter, but either way won't work.
Trying "Set API.IntBlockMgr.IntegrationMgr.PobjIntegrate = BlOCKPROC.ActConnect("LookUP")" throws an object required error.
Trying
Dim BLOCKPROC
Set BLOCKPROC = CreateObject("upsWBlockProcessorDM.clsBlockProcessor")
BLOCKPROC.Initialize API, SCRIPTENG
throws me a type mismatch for "BLOCKPROC.Initialize".
I am kinda at my wits end. Any help/clue is much appreciated.
Ahh, yes the different writing BlOCKPROC and BLOCKPROC is correct!
Thanks!Hello Tony,
Many thanks for your answer. Just one last question. The event AftProcMap(strLoc, strDim) gives me the Dimension? Just how do I get the account?
Can you point me to the right direction and I'll figure out the rest!
Thanks a lot! -
Creating sandboxes with the admin api
I'm trying to write some code that creates sandboxes through
the admin api. For these sandboxes, I want to only enable a
specific set of functions. Unfortunately, when you create a sandbox
with getSecuritySandboxes, it enables all functions by default. I
therefore need to disable all the securable functions before
enabling the ones I trust. I've run into two problems in doing
this, and wondered if anyone had any advice.
1) The api provides a function called
getSecurableCFFunctions, which is meant to return all the functions
that can be secured. Unfortunately, the function list returned by
this function is not complete - it is missing createobject(com),
createobject(corba), createobject(java), createobject(webservice),
getgatewayhelper and sendgatewaymessage. There's no way of finding
out the enabled functions for a sandbox, so I've currently had to
resort to disabling all the functions returned by
getSecurableCFFunctions and then adding in the ones that I know are
missing. This approach is likely to be broken when future releases
of CF add new securable functions.
2) I use setDisabledCFFunction to disable functions, but can
find no way of disabling createobject(com), createobject(corba),
createobject(java) or createobject(webservice) with this function.
When I try, it throws an exception with this message: "This
function can not be added to the restricted function list.". These
functions are in the function list in the administrator, and I can
add them there. Is there any way of securing them through the api?
Any advice appreciated!
Thanks,
MaxSet up a "template" sandbox that has the permissions you
want, say E:\template. Then I think this will work:
obSandbox =
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.security");
arDefaultSandbox = obSandbox.getSecuritySandboxes (
"E:\template" );
obSandbox.setSecuritySandbox ( directory = SandboxDirectory,
sandbox = arDefaultSandbox["E:\template"] ); -

Cannot access the Admin Consol Tasks
Hi,
When I go into the Admin Screen on SAP BPC I cannot access the Admin Consol Tasks but I can access the Web Admin Tasks and my excel is working fine.
Logoffed and retried, same problem.
Working on Version 5.1 SP4, Excel 2003.
Regards
DeanHi,
There can be 2 reasons for you not being able to access the Admin Tasks. I would request you to check the below things.
1. You need to check the Task Profile for your user ID and verify that you have all the necessary accesses.
2. When you login to the Admin screen, make sure that some Application is selected.
Hope this helps. -
Can't access the admin console
changing from exchange 2010 to exchange 2013 was a very nice step & it work fine for more than 4 month ...
after a power lose for 2 or 3 time
This is what I get when I tray to access the admin console....
and the web access is not working
only the outlook access is working fine .... but I have to manage the exchange. such ( adding a new user )
it will be nice from any one who can share some idea to fix this
PS. domain is a windows server 2008r2
exchange 2013 on windows server 2008r2
both are on a different machine
thanks to you allHi,
Please go to IIS Manager (Switch to Content View) to check the files there:
Expand Sites > Exchange Back End > 15.0.620.29 (my Exchange server is Exchange 2013 CU1). Please check whether there are any file folders under themes and Scripts folder. If there is no folder there, please copy the whole folders "Scripts"
and "Themes" or the entire folder of 15.0.620.29 (cu1) folder from Exchange Installation Path /ClientAccess/ ECP/ CU1 folder in a working machine(the same Exchange version) to the update folder on same location.
Please switch to IIS manager Feature View, go to Exchange Back End > ECP home, open Application Settings in /ecp Home, please check whether the value for “BinSearchFolders” is changed to an invalid value. If so, please change it to:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\bin\CmdletExtensionAgents;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Exchange Server\V15\ClientAccess\Owa\bin.
Then run IISReset /noforce from a prompted command window to restart IIS services.
If all above doesn’t work, please collect some error logs for further analysis.

Hi, I recently received an email which I believed to be from my bank but it turns out it was from someone trying to hack my bank account. I accessed the email on my phone and I wanted to know if I need to restore my iphone back to default settings? I am a bit worried about losing everything on my phone if I do this but at the same time I don't want them to get any other information. Any ideas?
Did you log in with your bank account via the link included with this email?
If not, you have nothing to worry about.
Accessing or viewing the email alone can't provide your bank account info or the log in for your bank account.
