App Layer: Capture Cleanup

Current situation:
A recored App Layer cannot be managed in any way. Any recorded data, including garbage, will be part of an App Layer.
Feature request:
Have the possibility to cleanup the App Layers by interacting with the actual captured data.
Something like a ThinApp Capture folder where we can remove unneded data like MSI installer backup files, other temporary data, etc.
Best Regards,
Don

Passing blob from app layer to web layer

Hi,
We have some PDF files stored in Oracle database. I can retrieve them out using the ejb's from the app layer, but can not pass it to the web layer as a blob. I guess blob data type is not serializable. Appreciate any suggestions.
Adam

a blob is a specfic datatype and should not normally be exposed to the web tier. So try using a byte array or byteStream. Both work for me.

ASA app layer inspection and CX IPS inspection

ASA application layer inspection is critical for protocols such as FTP and SIP for well known reasons. When implementing a CX module, my understanding is that either the ASA implements inspection or the CX implements inspection. For instance, if I want my CX to inspect HTTP I need to forward that traffic via a policy-map to the CX engine and ensure that the ASA is not configured to inspect HTTP. Easy enough.
What I am unclear about is if it is desired for the CX to inspect protocols such as FTP and SIP. In my case I'm running the CX IPS which does list some FTP and SIP threats. If I direct this traffic to the CX for IPS inspection, where would the app layer inspection occur for processing SIP embedded IP addresses or FTP secondary channels? Or, is it necessary to ensure these protocols remain inspected by the ASA? Finally, does the answer change for the WSE license?

Hogoqo,
Thanks for the reply. Does this config mean that "default-inspection-traffic" will not be sent to the IPS module?
What I initially wanted was to send ALL traffic to the IPS module, and also use statefull inspection for the default-inspection-traffic.
Is this a bad practice (to send all traffic to the IPS module)?
The ASA is configured with 3 interfaces (inside, outside, dmz), with an e-mail server in the DMZ. In the future, there will also be e-commerce servers in the DMZ.
Should I send to the IPS module only traffic that has the destination as one of the DMZ servers?
I am new to IPS, and kind of confused.
Thanks!

What is the best app for Maintenance/Cleanup for my mac? Do I need Virus Protection?

What is the best app for Maintenance/Cleanup for my Mac? Do I need Virus protection?

How to maintain a Mac
Make two or more backups of all your files
One backup is not enough to be safe. A copy of a backup doesn't count as another backup; all backups must be made directly from the original data.
Keep at least one backup off site at all times in case of disaster. Backing up to a cloud-data service is one way to accomplish this, but don't rely exclusively on such backups.
In fact, don’t rely exclusively on any single backup method, such as Time Machine.
If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
Keep your software up to date
In the App Store or Software Update preference pane (depending on the OS version), you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis.
Keeping up to date is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Don't install such modifications unless they're absolutely necessary. Remove them when they are no longer needed. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all system modifications that you use are compatible. Incompatibility with third-party software is by far the most common cause of difficulties with system updates.
Don't install crapware
...such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, such stuff is useless or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
It's not much of an exaggeration to say that the whole "utility" software industry for the Mac is a fraud on consumers. The most extreme examples are the "CleanMyMac," "TuneUpMyMac," and “MacKeeper” scams, but there are many others.
As a rule, you should avoid software that changes the way other software works. Plugins for Photoshop and similar programs are an obvious exception to this rule. Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction. Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
Only install software that is useful to you, not (as you imagine) to the computer. For example, a word processor is useful for writing. A video editor is useful for making movies. A game is useful for fun. But a "cache cleaner" isn't useful for anything. You didn't buy a computer so you could clean caches.
Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve. Do not rely on "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.
Don't install bad, conflicting, or unnecessary fonts
Whenever you install new fonts, use the validation feature of the built-in Font Book application to make sure the fonts aren't defective and don't conflict with each other or with others that you already have. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions.
Deactivate or remove fonts that you don't really need to speed up application launching.
Avoid malware
"Malware" is malicious software that circulates on the Internet. This kind of attack on OS X was once so rare that it was hardly a concern, but it's now increasingly common and dangerous.
There is some built-in protection against malware, but you can’t rely on it—the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party "anti-virus" products for protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness—not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must come directly from the developer's website. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from the web, without your having requested it, should go straight into the Trash. A web page that tells you that your computer has a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with it, is a scam.
In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
Don't fill up your disk or SSD
A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a startup failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem.
While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage use and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
If storage space is running low, use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move seldom-used large files to secondary storage.
Relax, don’t do it
Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
To use a Mac effectively, you have to free yourself from the Windows mindset that every computer needs regular downtime for maintenance such as "defragging" and "registry cleaning." Those concepts do not apply to the Mac platform.
A well-designed computing device is not something you should have to think about much. It should be an almost transparent medium through which you communicate, work, and play. If you want a machine that needs a lot of attention just to keep going, use a PC, or collect antique cars.
The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it.

Change grey background behind app layer

Hi,
Wondered if there is a way to make the grey area behind the app layer, which shows up while flex is loading, another colour?
Cheers

This LiveDocs page will give you information answering your question:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=app_container_2.html
Search for "Overriding the default Application container styles" within that page.
The backgroundColor property specifies the background color of the Stage area in Flash Player, which is visible during application loading and initialization, and a background gradient while the application is running. By default, the backgroundColor property is set to 0x869CA7, which specifies a dark blue-grey color.
If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.

App Layer: Dependencies

Current situation:
App Layers that have dependencies need to be covered and assigned manually by the admin.
Feature request:
Add the capability to define App Layer Dependencies:
Doesn't need to be a dynamic dependency recognition, since this would be very difficult to code and it requires knowledge of the individual apps.
Instead it could be implemented statically:
The admin defines which packages depend on each other. Once assigning an App Layer with dependencies, the dependent App Layers are automatically assigned as well.

Don

App Layer: ThinApp Integration

Current situation:
Only Native Installed Apps can be assigned as App Layers.
Of course also ThinApps can but they have to be part of a Mirage App Layer which doubles the work...
Feature request:
Integrate ThinApps to be deployed side-by-side to native Mirage App Layers.
As an example it would be useful to import or specify the location of the ThinApp Repository, which would then allow us to select and assign the different ThinApps (executables, not MSI's!).

Yes.

Need a good GUI app for capturing a watching TV

kdetv and tvtime are very good for watching TV, but both can't capture in the broadcast.
do you know a good app or frontend for capturing?

i tried XDTV, but i didn't like it, it has an ugly interface (and was wery wery slow on my A64 too!), crashed sometimes...
I tried then G4vl, its a GUI frontent to transcode, and uses the config files of xawtv, so you have to generate the channels with xawtv, then here you go...
You have to recompille transcode with --enable-v4l option in order to work with Gv4l. It much better then xdtv imho, worked pretty good 4 me.
I submitted a pkg in AUR, try it, vote for it

App to capture high quality video; clip; bulk export high quality?

Our students capture long videos in a high quality format (.DV), then often want to define clips within the movie, and hand them off to Compressor for compression. Unfortunatly, with the changes in Final Cut Pro X, we can find no viable way of doing that, and we've searched for hours in the app and online. The closet we found was to export stems out of the FCPX timeline using Roles:
http://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/export-stems-out-of-your-final-cut-pro-x-timelin e-using-roles/
For simply wanting to define multple clips (no combining of clips involved), this is rather tedious, but moreso, when we use this technique, indeed only the video and audio of the clips we hand off to Compressor is seen and heard, but we end up with video black on both sides of the clip, which greatly lengthens the processing time, not to mention that we then need to trim the dead air afterwards.
We tried using iMovie 11, but unlike one or more previous versions, it is no longer possible to export multiple clips.
We've downloaded Adobe Premiere, and will be testing this.
Is there an OS X app that can capture high quality (.DV?) video/audio, make clips, then bulk export to .DV on disk, that doesn't cost over $500?

Thank you, I'm exporting to DV now to try that out.
I was choppy at my explanation, so let me go a little further. Maybe I do just use a DVD player to play this - but, let me explain further - maybe I'm not doing something right in creating the DVD.
I 'shared' from iMovie to iDvd - and burnt right to a DVD. Again, the movie was shaky on the computer. We played it on a DVD player, still a little shaky.. but not near as noticable - it looked pretty good. BUT - this is when the dvd stopped. I hit play, and it picked up right where it left off. I also was skipping through chapters, and it stopped all of the sudden. I had to go back to the main menu to start over. This was all done on a dvd player. Eventually, we played the rest of the video and it went ok. But, something tells me there might be a glitch in the DVD I created.... ?
Someone mentioned they had problems when exporting/burning right to dvd from iMovieHD. They said they exported out, then dragged the file into iDVD.. is that an option - if so, how would I go about doing that?

Is there a cc app that captures video of mousing around a web page? v

I am making a video to demo the features of our website. I need a tool that will render full quality video screen captures, and it would be great if it allowed enhancements like audio cues and animations to indicate mouse clicks. Is there anything like that in CC?

Hi cruscac10,
I think this is the application that will suit your needs.
http://www.adobe.com/products/captivate.html
Check that and let me know if that's what you were looking for.

Can I use Automator or other app to capture at specific time?

Wondered if it's possible to set up FCP HD to record at a specific time, like a record timer on a VCR? Thanks.

There aren't any automator cues for Final Cut Pro. Maybe someone will crack this app and figure it out like some have done for Photoshop... but as of now - Not FCP... BUT
QuicktimePro will record in native DV if you want and here's how to do it:

Movie clip capture app?

I am wanting to build a powerpoint type presentation probably using Keynote around several shortlips from a TV series as well as several motion pictures of the same series. I've already received permission from Paramount Pictures as well as CBS Studios to use there material. Now I'm looking for an app that will allow me to capture short clips from the movies and TV series I already own on DVD. Does such an app exist?
My challenges are,
1. Which app to build the presentation with?
2. Which app to get the movies on to my iPad? (iTunes sync)
3. Which app to capture the short clips with and how to insert them into the presentation?
4. Do this entire presentation using only my iPad. (Les the DVD Movie sync part).
Thanks!!!!

In order to copy a movie from a commercial DVD to your iPad, the first thing you'd need to do is break the encryption. Therein lies the problem. Breaking that encryption is illegal in the U.S. Discussions about it here are prohibited by the terms of use of these forums.
Perhaps you can contact the rights holders and ask them for clips or unencrypted copies.
Best of luck.

Image capture app

Hi guys
I have a bit of a problem. I have 1 CanoScan LiDE60 scanner
This is on my G4 mini Mac I can have access to it through my network from my iBook G4. But I do not seem to be able to see it with my Intel iMac.
Can it be done between a G4 and Intel? And if so how do I do it. I use the app Image Capture in applications across the network
iMac g3, iBook12", 'Minimac superdrive', intel iMac 17" Mac OS X (10.4.7) all have 1 gig ram

Hi, shaka.
Very strange. Unfortunately, I don't have an Intel-based Mac on hand at the moment to test this issue. You might want to search or post on one of the iMac (Intel Core Duo) Discussions to see if someone else with a mixed environment of PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs can reproduce the problem you are seeing with Image Capture. It may be a bug.
Another possibility would be to post to the Networking and the Web Discussion, though I'd try the Intel-based iMac Discussions first.
If you post on the Intel-based iMac Discussion, include a link to this topic so those responding can also see what you've already tried.
Good luck!
