Adding web/ftp users

Hi all, I'm new to using the MAC as a web server having come from WHM/Cpanel environment.
I have managed to basically set the server up/ start web/ftp services.
this is a single Xserv/Mac OS X server 10.4.3
I'm trying to figure out how to add a user to the default web site domain so I can login via ftp to upload website content.
Could some explain what I need to enter for the user home so that it points to the website root in /Library/WebServer/Documents
Thanks all.

If you set your webserver/documents folder as a share point in workgroup manager, you should be able to go into server admin - ftp - settings - advanced. There will be a pop up menu called "authenticated users see" and you can pull it to FTP Root and share points or Home Directory and Share points. Just make sure to be careful about permissions and anonymous users, etc. You can then access it by going in to your browser and typing ftp.yourdomain.com without the http or www, and you will be prompted for a user name and password. If you are concerned about the security of ftp and you are using a mac to connect, you can always turn off ftp and connect to the server through afp (go menu - connect to server - your server's ip) and you will see the share points there. I hope this helps.

BI4.1 SP02 Installation Stuck on "Adding Web Intelligence Sample"

Hi,
I am in Panic, I am upgrading my BO4.0 SP04 to BI4.1 SP02. My existing BI4.0 system is clustered. Two clustered CMS running in Machine1 and machine2.
I am running the 64 bit BI4.1 SP02 installer in Machine1.. Almost 80% of the installation is done. But for last 7 hrs, the installation is stuck on "Adding Web Intelligence Server". I have checked the log file in D:\BusinessObjects4\InstallData\logs\2014.05.03.10.36.01. Following is the last few lines from the log. Please help me.

Looks like the CMS has not fully started, or not started at all. There is a point before this that it attempts to logon to the CMS, did that succeed?
If not, is the cms database local to one or both cms hosts?
If the cms database is hosted on a separate server check the response time, for oracle this is done with tnsping. If over 5ms response time this slows things down. Over 10ms gets into problems.
If the database is on the other side of a firewall this can also contribute.

Lightroom 3 Web FTP

I'm having trouble using the Lightroom 3 Web FTP for uploading images to my website. Does anyone know of any fixes for this?
I use a Mac OS-X and I am making sure I am entering all of the correct information regarding:
Server
User name Password
Server Path
Protocol Port
Is there a data limit as to how much can be sent using the Lightroom 3 FTP? It used to work with out a hitch and then it just stopped. I've been intouch with my server provider and they insist it's not on their side.
I always get it to go to the point of "building the website" then it stops after several minutes and gives me a notice that the connection to the server failed.
Any thoughts?!?

I have a similar problem. I've been using WSPP Impact, a LR3 plugin, to maintain a site with a gallery index page and 15 galleries. Addition of each gallery has been straightforward until now. But for the 16th gallery the WSPP publish service uploaded the photo files to my site server, but will not add the gallery index button to the index page. This ay be a problem or limitation with the WSPP Impact plugin, but I get no reply to requests for help to the author. Has anyone experience with this situation?

Subject: RE :(forte-users) Web enterprise & user visibleservice Objects

A few months ago we faced a similar problem while migrating from classic
Forte to Web. We had to protect our investment in various frameworks that we
wrote for the classic Forte apps, which made use of extensive
user-level-caching among other things.
We solved the problem using a custom routing mechanism. In brief, we created
several( replicated) server partitions that contains all the user-level
Service objects that existed in the class-Forte apps. Then we wrote a
'custom-router' which mimics Forte load-balanced router( dialog duration =
session ) to intelligently route incoming HTTPRequests to one of these
replicated partitions. The router would look at the some tag on the session
and then route the request to one of these replicated "client clone" using
the tag. Successive requests from the same client will go to the same
replicated partition so that you can use the client-cache or any other
per-user services.
The advantages of this approach are
1) You can continue to make use of caching and other user-level components
that you may have.
2) The web and classic Forte clients can work seamlessly if you write them
to use reference partitions that hosts the other shared( Environment visible
) service objects.
Ofcourse you will have to write ( and maintain )the custom-routing code and
also pay attention to house-keeping. For example, the burdon of cleaning up
the cache on logout or session expiration lies on you. If you don't do this,
then your new user might be looking at an old cache of some other user.
Hope this helps,

Subject: (forte-users) Web enterprise & user visible service objects
Hi
We have taken a forte application and converted it to run on the web using
* forte web enterprise &
* fortecgi.exe
In the forte application we have a user visible Local Cache Manager
Service Object (i.e. each users has their own copy) for storing things
like
* the details of the current user id
* the details of the current client chosen
* arrays that are needed by other windows
With web enterprise this service object is no longer user visible, how can
we make it user visible?
Thanks in advance.

How to chroot a single ftp user in solaris 10

I need to lock down a single ftp user so they cannot see outside of their home directory. Any advice or guides on the best way to do this?
Thanks,

Then you have to create a file /etc/shells (if it does not exist yet) where you have to put in every login shell with which "ftp" is allowed (i.e. if the user with the restricted shell is the only ftp user then the only entry is: /usr/lib/rsh. If you have another user with the Korn shell as login shell and this user should be able to "ftp" then you have to add the Korn shell as well).

Anonymous FTP User created by the system lacks the user name

I'm experiencing some problems and inconsistencies in the Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 FTP service.
First I'll report this behaviour to evaluate if it's worth a bug report.
I read in the that the user with user name 'Anonymous FTP User" and short name 'ftp' is created by the system the first time the FTP server is accessed using an anonymous user.
I noticed that the user is indeed created but its user name field is empty. It doesn't have the associated LDAP record, too.
If I try to manually create a user with an empty user name field WGM errors, so could this be considered a bug?

Cisco WLC 5508 simultaneous Web Auth Users logins?

Hi there,
We have 2 WLC5508 (7.2.111.3) with several SSID's.
One of them is configured as Passthrough with an external splash server. Works fine.
Now we want to use the "On MAC Filter failure".
If the client MAC-adresse is configured under MAC Filtering on the WLC, the authentication is done without WebAuth.
If MAC-adress is not known, the client will be redirect to the external WebAuth server for authentication.
To keep the Passthrough functionality for the user, we hardcoded an username&password in the splash-page.
So, every client WebAuth uses the same username&password for authentication against the WLC.
User Login Policies is set to unlimited.
So far so good, it seems to work, but I have read, that Cisco 5500 controllers supports only 150 simultaneous Web Auth Users logins.
The two WLC's have abount 100-170 clients connected.
Question:
- Will these be an issue with the 150 simultaneous logins, despited when usin only one user for all Wifi-clients?
- Can the user WebAuth be done with a Cisco ISE like Passthrough, no username&password should be entered by the user.
If yes, some guide information wolud be great.
- When successfully authenticated, a logout screen shows on the Windows client. Can this be hidden some how?
Thanks for the answers ;-)
Kind regards,
Norbert

Question:
- Will these be an issue with the 150 simultaneous logins, despited when usin only one user for all Wifi-clients?
> I believe this means at the same time... I have clients doing the same thing with hundreds or more of guest users
- Can the user WebAuth be done with a Cisco ISE like Passthrough, no username&password should be entered by the user.
If yes, some guide information would be great.
> ISE is really used to login with a username and password and to be able to profile. You would need to ask that on the Security forum to get their input if this is something then would do or just leave it on the WLC
- When successfully authenticated, a logout screen shows on the Windows client. Can this be hidden some how?
> Not really... some machines with popup blocker does block this and you don't see the logout, but you can't remove this.
Thanks,
Scott

Adding a domain user to Local Admin Groups using MDT 2012

I don't know if this will help anyone, but it did me after weeks of searching. If you are trying to add a domain user or domain groups to the local administrators group using MDT, simply go to the cs.ini and add "SkipAdminAccounts=No".
But the administrators accounts page will only appear if you choose to join a domain.

Correct, if you were to go into the %DeployRoot%\Scripts\DeployWiz_Definition_ENU.xml file you would see the entry for the DeployWiz_AdminAccounts.xml page as follows:
<Pane id="AdministratorAccounts" reference="DeployWiz_AdminAccounts.xml">
<Condition><![CDATA[ UCase(Property("SkipAdminAccounts")) = "NO" and UCase(Property("DeploymentType"))<>"REPLACE" and Property("DeploymentType")<>"CUSTOM" and Property("JoinDomain") <> "" ]]></Condition>
</Pane>
Most Wizard Pages are displayed by default, and you can turn them off by using the SkipXxxXxxxxx Page variable to hide them during wizard execution. This page is different, since it was added for MDT 2012, the MDT team decided to leave it *OFF* by default,
instead you must explicitly turn off the SkipAdminAccounts variable by setting it to "NO".
Additionally, you would not need to display this page if you were running a Refresh or a Custom Task Sequence.
Finally, this page does not actually *create* accounts, instead it just adds pre-existing user accounts and adds them to the local Administrators group. This scenario is only valid when you are joining the machine to a domain, so you must Join to the Domain.
If you are interested in adding other local users to the Administrators Group, you should write a script to create the account(s) and add them to the local group. Windows 8.1 has some *gotchas* that have to do with Microsoft Accounts, but that's a different
Story :^).

XI Message Protocol and Value-Added Web Services

Hi,
I have a couple of questions on the above-mentioned topic:
- How is the enhanced SOAP format in XI able to deliver value-added web services (as described in the XI documentation)?
- If the XI format is an enhancement of SOAP, is it again fully open or are there some proprietary pieces to it?
Thanks and Regards,
Bharath

Hi Bharath,
>>> How is the enhanced SOAP format in XI able to deliver value-added web services (as described in the XI documentation)?
value-added web services means that you can monitor
all web services from one place (with the xi monitoring features)
if you're using point-to-point connections without the XI
you have to monitor all of your flows from all those applications and not from just one place

Site Definition losing FTP User ID and Password

My configuration:
iMac 2.4 GHz Intel C2D
10.6.1 Snow Leopard
DW v10 (Build 4117)
Not sure if my issue is related to the one described in this thread.
I recently performed a clean install of Snow Leopard and DW. Afterwards I imported my site definitions and everything was fine. On quiting and then re-opening DW the FTP User ID and (optionally Password) in the site sefinition(s) have disappeared. I re-entered them and am able to connect to my site(s) via FTP, but again on closing and re-opening DW the information has disappeared again.
What I've done;
- deleted and re-configured all Site Definitions several times.
- deleted the ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS4/en_US/Configuration/ folder
but still the problem persists.
Not sure if this a Snow Leopard/DW incompatibility issue, but I do recall this happening maybe once or twice with Leopard.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

I beleive this happens if:
- you are using a trial version
- you don't enter your keychain password to record this information
I lost my kechain passwordon my mac,and i have to reenter password and FTP info everytime. Very frustrating util I can find the time to figure out how to reset my Mac keychain password.

Problems With FTP Users home directory

Hello Everyone,
I recently ran into a problem when setting the home directory of an ftp user. What I want to be able to do is for example I have two users, one user is User1, and the other is FTPUser. Now when people ftp into the user FTPUser I want to set the home directory to be a certain path in User1. Now I was able to successfully do this on one box when creating the FTPUser I just set the home directory to be the path in User1. And when people ftped into FTPUser they were in the right directory under User1.
I tried to do this same procedure on another box, and after creating the FTPUser and setting its home directory to a path under User1. Now when they ftped into FTPUser it was showing that the home directory was "/". I examined /etc/passwd and it presents the right home directory that I want, yet when people ftp into FTPUser its showing the home directory to be "/". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
-Kevin

Sorry for such a late reply, but I figured out my problem and will put it on here in case other people run into the same problem. You must make the FTPUser be in the same group of the normal users directory path you wish to FTP into. For example the command will look like this when making the FTP user:
useradd -g "users group number" -d /path/to/file -s /bin/sh ftpusername
so if user1 group id was 110 you would put 110 after -g and set the home dir of the ftpusername to be some path in user1. Thanks all for the help.

Restrict FTP User to a Directory

I am using Solaris 10 on SPARC.
SunOS ddw 5.10 Generic_139555-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise
I have put some text files in a directory '/u01/network'
I want to create a ftp user which can just read the files in the network directory. The ftp user shouldn't be able to navigate or see any other directory outside of the network directory.
The user ftp_usr is the owner of /u01/network directory.
Following are settings in /etc/passwd:
ftp_user:x:3008:1::/u01/network:/usr/bin/ftp-only
The settings in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess:
allow-retrieve relative class=realusers /u01/network
restricted-uid ftp_user
Please advise.

The problem has resolved. It was a permission issue.
Please see the details at:

FTP Server with WEB FTP function

Hi,
which is the best solution for a FTP Server with WEB FTP Service?
kind regards
Piero

No, I am not running this solution at a corporate level; I'm just using this one for home use by maybe a dozen people. At any rate, I looked around for several and this one seemed to work best for me. Here's some others I checked into. I did use PFPFileNavigator before I found AjaXplorer. I went with AjaXplorer because I liked the interface better and it has LDAP support.
PHPfileNavigator
http://pfn.sourceforge.net/
Relay
http://ecosmear.com/relay/
Mollify --- Probably the most "Mac looking" one
http://www.mollify.org/
QuiXplorer
http://quixplorer.sourceforge.net/
eXtplorer
http://extplorer.sourceforge.net/
Rumpus
http://www.maxum.com/Rumpus/HomePage.html
BarracudaDrive Web Server
http://barracudaserver.com/products/BarracudaDrive/
I hope this gives you some ideas. I spent about a week Googling, installing, and testing before settling on AjaXplorer. I tried PHPFileNavigator (but didn't have LDAP support, other than that I liked it), Rumpus (didn't like this as it is commercial, and, uses it's own built-in web server), Relay (not enough features), and Mollify (again, no LDAP support).
Best regards,
