Administrator rights for plugin?

I just finished downloading the Java 2 Runtime Environment 1.3.0_01 so that one of the users here at the school can access a site that requires this plugin. The problem I am having is that as a regular "Power User" she cannot use this plug in. However, if I log in as a local "Administrator" to the machine, then I can use the plugin. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to enable that user to use this plugin without giving her local "Administrator" rights to her machine.
Thank you

I've recently been trialling deployment of the 1.4.0 plugin. My findings were that both Administrators and Power-Users can install the plug-in with no problems.
If you only have to install it on one machine then can't you simply log on as admin, grant power-user/admin rights to your User, log them on to install the software and then set their privileges back to ordinary User after this has been completed.
I have tried this with 1.4.0 and it worked fine, although on searching the forum a few days ago for info on this subject, I noticed that with 1.3 a few people had problems when their Users tried to use the plugin after their rights had been set back to normal User.

Local Administration rights for Xcelcius and Crystal Reports

Hello Customercare,
I am currently compiling a list of software that does and does not require local administrator rights to install and run.
I was wondering if you would be able to assist me, we currently use Crystal Reports version 8.5 and Crystal Xcelsius 4.5. I need to find out if these programs require local administrator rights on the computer they are to be used on to a) Install properly and B) run from that computer by a user without local administrative rights for that machine.
Please let me know or point me in the right direction of a resource who would be able to help me with the above information.

How to stop administrator rights for an user

Hi,
We had given the default user in all Mac systems administrator rights while installing the OS 10.3.X

Can someone help me on disbling the users Admin rights withour affect their data?

You should backup the NetInfo database before making any changes. Run the 500.daily script from the command line. You can copy the command from this post and paste it into the Terminal application:
sudo sh /etc/daily
Press the return key. Enter you admin password at the password prompt and press the return key.
Open the NetInfo Manager and navigate to the group admin. You need to unlock the NetInfo Manager and enter your admin password. Remove the user from the field users. Click the lock to save the changes. If this doesn't work I'll hesitantly post the command line method.

Administrator rights for updater

Our organization has received Dell OptiPlex 7010's with Win 7 Pro 32 bit SP1. Our users are always set up as Restricted users. When Adobe Flash Player updater runs, they receive a message:
You must have administrative privileges to install Adobe Flash Player. Please log on with administrative privileges and try again.
We did not encounter this issue with Win XP Pro and restricted users. We need to the updater to run, for the users who access web sites with Flash Player content. We've checked Task Scheduler and the updater task is set to run under user SYSTEM. How can we get updater to run for our restricted users? Thanks for any assistance.

I'll double check with our installer team, but I suspect what is happening is that we're in our 30 day period when the silent auto update mechanism hasn't kicked back in. Once we pass May 9th, the silent auto update should kick back in and your restricted users will be updated automatically.
You can bypass this by implementing your own Flash update server which will allow you to push out builds to your clients, regardless of their permission level, as soon as you make them available. Please see this post for details:

Installing the Java-Plugin without administrative rights

I would like to find a way to allow a user without administrative rights to install the Java-Plugin for using Java-Applets. As far as I understood, the plugin can be installed in a silent way withou registry modifiactions. Is this working for users without admin rights?
Furthermore I would like to have the web page containing the applet installing the plugin (if necessary) in a fully automatic way so the user does not need to deal with installing the plugin manually. This should work without admin rights as well.
Any ideas?

The whole "GetJava"-program is just crap for ordinary users if they get the JRE downloaded seamlessly and then the installation fails due to missing admin rights. This way Java would never succeed on the desktop.

Thanks, but I've done that several times & it still says I need administraive privileges. I had itunes installed with no problems until I did the latest update. After that it just disappeared, so I tried reinstalling. Now I can't sync my phone. This is so frustrating!

No Administrative Rights in v6.0 for Level 10?

2 questions:
1) I have delivered my first upgrade of Lookout to v6.0.1 for a customer.
Two days later I go to add another person to level 10 and find I do not have administrative rights to do this.
I get a pop-up window that tells me this.
Bad news, I set myself up as Level 10, like always, and now I can't get in to change users?
I mean, like with level 10 I should be able to do *anything*.
2) I cannot find where I get to change the default user variable save period. It's default of 60min is too long and I need to drop it to 10 or so.
It is on the System page in 3.8 "Save State Files every: xxx min". But no such luck in 6.
System is a new PC with XP Pro

Well the forum administrator has prevailed on me to relay the answers.
1) Obviously I did not give myself full administrator functions in Lookout when I set myself up, level 10 doesn't cut it any more. The name being the same as the windows terminology led me to look to the windows administrator function. I wonder what the ghosts at Georgetown would say now, it doesn't come on a single floppy diskette any more guys.
2) The default user save period is called "state", I knew that. Alls you do is search on "state" and not "save" or "variable" or anything else, and when you do figure out the magic word is "state", you find it has migrated from "Options\System" to "File\Modify Service".
Oh that's much more logical...
It's so easy when you know how.
I will now put on my dunces cap and stand in a corner.

Building LabVIEW Executables That Prompt For Administrative Rights Under Vista

Hi Everyone,
I've discovered the hard way the differences between Vista and XP... I've got a compiled LabVIEW program that needs administrative privledges to run. However, when a user launches the program without proper rights under Vista, it doesn't prompt for administrative rights, it just runs and produces strange errors. Is there a way to make the program prompt the user for administrative rights so that they don't always have to right-click and select "Run as administrator"? I heard mention of a "manifest" file that can do this, but I haven't found any details.
Thanks!

I have no solution, but do you know why have to be an Admin to run your program? Do you write data to c:\program files? or any other 'forbidden' location?
Maybe rewriting your app is the best option?

Can't get Administrator Privileges/Rights for Local Account in Administrators Group

I'm using a Custom Command Shell, and for now just booting to cmd.exe. I've done the following:
1) Added a LocalAccount under UserAccounts/LocalAccounts (pass 7) with Name, DisplayName, Password, Group
2) Entered "Administrators" as the LocalAccount/Group (yes, it's definitely spelled correctly.)
3) Set AutoLogon/Username to the Username created in Step 1, Enabled, LogonCount 9999, Password as per Step 1
4) Added the "Application Security" package and set EnableLUA=False.
The system boots after install, and it successfully logs in automatically to the command prompt. However, the user DOES NOT have Administrator privileges. For example, when trying to run Regsvr32 from the command prompt, I receive the following error message:
"dllregisterserver failed with error code 0x8002801c," which indicates some sort of privilege/rights issue.
At the command prompt, when I type Net User LocalUserWhoShouldBeAdmin, I get the following:
    Local Group Memberships
    Global Group Memberships   *None
Whereas when I type Net User Administrator, I get:
    Local Group Memberships    *Administrators
    Global Group Memberships   *None
What must I do to successfully give the local user Administrator rights?

Jamster,
I figured out the solution, but I'm not sure your problem is the same...
In my case, the problem was that the LocalAccount/Name was the same as the ComputerName. As a last resort, all I did was change the LocalAccount/Name to something other than the ComputerName, and voila, after re-installing the image the local account was
suddenly a member of Administrators. Crazy... you'd think they'd be able to tell the difference between the ComputerName and a local account name! In case anyone's wondering, it has nothing to do with the length of the local account Name (I tested that.)

How can I avoid the need for Administrator rights for open registry key.vi

Dear wire workers.
I would like to do an EXCEL export.
Therefore I like to check if EXCEL is installed or not.
I use 'open registry key.vi' and read out the Excel\InstallRoot.
If there is an installed EXCEL than I export the data using ActiveX.
Everything works like a charm with LV 8.5.
The problem I have is that 'open registry key.vi' useses RegOpenKeyExA from the Advapi32.dll.
RegOpenKeyEx does, in fact, create a non-existing key and returns 0 (ERROR_SUCCESS?).
LONG lRegResult = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, m_RegSubKey, 0, KEY_QUERY_VALUE + KEY_WRITE, &hkRegistry);
Successfully opens or creates m_RegSubKey under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.
Is there a way aroun this call?
In fact you need administrator rights to do this call because of the try to write a non exsisting key.
In my case this avoids the EXCEL export and any kind of registry access from LabVIEW without administrator rights.
:-) Who the hell has done this ;-)
All ideas are welcome
With kind regards

Hi Martin
Did you try to wire a "KEY_READ" constant to the security access mask input of the open registry key VI? I had a similar problem, if you just need to read a key or check if it's present use read access only, that should work.
Hope this helps,

User administration - read rights for customizing

Hello,
is there s. th. like a only-read-right for the whole customizing img or do I have to get the rights for all the different t-codes inside the img?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Hansi

Hi Mark,
s.th. like this. The point is I'm new to right management. But there must be s.th. like a profile with which I get the right to see all the transactions related to the img or not? Our admin is saying we have to specify which transactions we need exactly which is quiete annoying. Instead I need a possibility to say: "Give me read-rights for this profile" and I can look after the customizing myself... Is there a way???
Thanks a lot.

Installation of SAP Business One client and required administration rights

Dear community,
I would like to kindly ask you for your feedback on the installation of SAP Business One client and its patches on end-user computers.
The pain points I have heard so far are the following:
- The installation of SAP Business One client and its patches has to be started by a user with administrator rights. As far as I know (and please correct me if I am wrong), this is also required in case of installation of any other software.
- End users usually do not have administrator rights and therefore the SAP Business One clients have to be manually upgraded by administrator. This is time consuming (and therefore costly) activity.
We are considering to design a new solution which would overcome the above limitations.
I would like to confirm with you if my understanding is correct:
Question 1:
Is it a common situation that the end-users of SAP Business One client do not have administrator rights and therefore cannot install the patches of SAP Business One client by themselves?
If yes, how do you resolve this currently?
Question 2:
Do you use Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager or Active Directory (or any other 3rd party solution) to automatically distribute software packages and updates to client PCs at your customers?
Question 3:
If the SAP Business One client installation (and its patches) is delivered as MSI package with silent installation capability, would you be able to automate the deployment of B1 client updates to client PC using the abovementioned technologies? Or can you still see some obstacles?
Thank you
Best regards

SAP Business One Product Management

Dear all,
Thank you very much for your comments, very helpful!
@Marco - SAP Business One 8.8 client currently does not support the silent installation / upgrade. However we are currently considering this requirement and we would like to deliver it as soon as possible.
We are currently considering several possible designs. One of them is as follows:
1. A new SAP Business One Updater Service will be installed on each client workstation.
It will be a windows service installed and running under a local system account.
2. The updater service will check regularly if there are any new patches of SAP Business One client or add-ons uploaded to a configured shared directory.
3. If a new patch is found in the shared directory, the updater service will SILENTLY install the new patch (add-ons, SAP Business One) on the client workstation.
The service would be able to install patches even if nobody is logged in.
Questions:
If we consider the above design, there are a few open topics:
1. During the upgrade of the SAP Business One server, the client patches (and SAP add-on patches, partner add-ons) would be placed to a SHARED directory instead of into SBO-Common (as it is implemented currently).
- Does this have any impact on your tools, processes or add-ons?
2. SAP Business One upgrade wizard will put the latest patch of SAP Business One client into a configured shared directory. The shared directory will have to be read-only for everybody in the network to avoid that the valid installation files are replaced by malware or virus infected files
- Can you configure such a shared directory?
From customer perspective, if a new patch is put into the shared directory, the updater service can behave as follows:
1. Manually initiated upgrade of the client
Example: Customer starts the old (not upgraded) SAP Business One client. The client will inform him/her that a new patch has been found and it has to be installed in order to continue working with the client. After customer clicks "Yes", the upgrader service starts the silent installation of the client and informs customer about the progress. Once the upgrade is finished, the upgraded SAP Business One client will be started automatically.
2. Automatic update:
- Update the client automatically (e.g. overnight) if customer is not working with SAP Business One
- If SAP Business One client is running, ask customer if he/she wishes to upgrade the client now or to delay the upgrade by X minutes.
Question: Which of the above two scenarios would you and your customers prefer?
If the upgrade is fully silent, automated and handled by the upgrader service, Is it acceptable for customers to trigger the installation manually and wait till the client is upgraded? Or would they prefer to have the client updated for them e.g. overnight so they can immediately start to work?
Best regards
Jan

Admin Rights for Adobe AIR apps

Which Admin rights are needed on a system to install a .AIR file on a system? In our Enterprise scenario users do not have Admin rights on the system. And whenever user tries installing an AIR app an error is thrown for the same. I want to know what are the least (Admin) rights that we need to give to a user on a WindowsXP system so that he can install air apps?

Hello,
Unfortunately, there isn't a simple answer to this question because AIR isn't in complete comtrol over the full set of files and registry keys touched during an install - we rely on Windows Installer for that. However you can find additional information about this at:
Does Installing an AIR Application Require Admin Rights?
What are Administrative Rights, Anyway?
You might also want to vote for this idea: Installation of Adobe AIR apps without having administrative privileges
Hope this helps,

User with Farm Administrator rights, but NOT in Farm Administrators Group

I have an account that we recently discovered has Farm Administrator rights and was used to access Central Admin and cause some harm. When I use the "Check Permissions" on the Central Admin site, it says that account has Full Control via
the Farm Administrators Group. However, that account is not in the Farm Adminstrators group.
There is an entry in the Farm Administrators group for "BUILTIN\Administrators" and this account is in the Local Admin group on this server. However, there are other accounts in the Local Admin group too, and when I "Check Permissions"
for them, it returns 'None'.
I am confused as to how this one account has Farm Administration level access, while others in Local Admin do not, and how can I remove this accounts Farm Administration rights if it is NOT in the Farm Adminstrators Group?
What are the potential problems/issues if I remove the "BUILTIN\Administrators" entry from the Farm Adminstrators Group?
Thanks in advance for any feedback/help.

If you have BUILTIN\Administrators as part of the Farm Admins, any user that is a Local Administrator will have Farm Admin rights. SharePoint doesn't enumerate groups when checking permissions, so the behavior you're seeing is correct. If you do not want
Local Admins to have Farm Admin rights, remove BUILTIN\Administrators from the Farm Admins group in SharePoint.
There should not be any issue with removing the group from Farm Admins, only that users will need both rights to fully manage SharePoint.
