Audit tool of log ons, deletes, adds, edits

Is there a product we could use on a small business 6 server to track when
users log on and off, what files they add, edit or delete? This isn't an
accounting application so I'm not trying to track that kind of activity.I'm
watching doc, xls, ppt type files.
I have supported small networks for too many years where this type of
tracking has never been asked for, but there's always a first time.

Do you mean Novell(NSURE) Audit ships with Small Business 6.5? In a week I
haven't been able to get that tidbit out of Novell.

How to create a login page for my client and a form so he can add/edit or delete information ?

I have a real state client and one of the pages is to show all the houses he is selling with their information.
And he wants to have a login page so that only him have permission to add, edit or delete a house from his web page.
Also when adding a new house i want to have a form(kinda like craigslist, ebay,amazon) so he can chose type of house,price,adress, floor, used , new, etc...?
I hope i was specif enough.
thanks

If this was me, I would just create a log in page. Set the users default access level to 0 and then go into the database and set your's to 1. From there, I would have a page that only is accessable to people with a user access level > 0 .
On this second page, make a table where you can insert picture(s) of the house, as well as information about the house. Have this page insert records into a database.
Finally, you will have your house listing on a page that is a dynamic table, which populates itself from the database of housing pictures and information.
It involves some database work, but with the built in functions of Dreamweaver, it is simple. I would suggest however, that you store links to the pictures in your database as opposed to storing the actual picture, but that's more up to you.
By doing all this, you have made it so at any time, your admin, and only the admin, can log in, upload pictures and information about a listing, and have it go live to the site.

So I deleted Foxfire 3.6.9 and down loaded to 3.5.9 so it could get FTP and it is doing the same could not install. Even after I registered my copy. The last time I used this program it showed up under tools and worked great. any suggestions on whats going on and how I can get around this?.by ralphd3g

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

I want to get rid of the Bing screen but there is no "menu at the top of the Firefox window" for me to "select Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item. "

I suddenly have a "Bing" screen when I sign onto Firefox---and I want to get rid of it. The support section of Firefox says
1. "From the menu at the top of the Firefox window, seledt Tools and then select the Add-ons menu item."---but I see no "menu item" nor Tools, much less Add-ons.
2. "In the Add-ons window, click on the Extensions panel."---but how do I find the Add-ons window?
3. Find the Bing Bar and Search Helper Extension in the list and click Disable for each of them."---but what and where exactly is that?
At the top of the screen is only a Yahoo icon on the left and to the right of it a search box, "Web Search,", "My Apps," Yellow Pages," "Weather," "Updates," and "Skype." to the right of those there is a green cross saying "Add more apps. to your toolbar" and to the right of that a sort of gear shift looking icon saying "toobar settings."
So, in short, how do I get rid of the Bing screen and how do I access those Tools?
Thanks.

To get rid of Bing Search Window..............
Click on View tab / Tools and un-check 'Search' (alias for 'Bing')

I no longer get my bookmarks in my dropdown menu on my yahoo tool bar plus i cannot add or delete apps on my yahoo toolbar.i believe this all started w/ a firefox upgrade of some sort.

i no longer get my bookmarks in my drop down menu on my yahoo tool bar plus i cannot add or delete apps on my yahoo toolbar. i have emailed yahoo and they said it is not their trouble & to call at&t and i called att and they said not their trouble go back to yahoo .......but i believe this all started w/ a firefox upgrade of some sort.

I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

Allow user to access /edit/delete/add specific items in list

Hi
I have one custom list.
every month department head is creating some activity because of which some items are getting added in that list pragmatically.
like-
departmentID item1
item2
DEPT001 item001
item002
DEPT001 item003
item001
DEPT002 item004
item001
After that User want to edit or delete or add new entries only related to their department only.
How can allow user to edit/delete or add entries (full control) only related to his department in the same list?
How can I assign users for this?
Should I create another list having department id and user mapping?
please suggest any soln.

The flow is like,
User(Dept head/department user)will select department from drop down and clik on button to add some entries against the department.
once the entries done he just click on save button.
after some time if department head/department user want to add/edit/delete some entries against his department then he should able to view only his deapartment entries.
Also the email is generated to his manager.
So my question is how should I allow user to view his own entires only which should be available for him to add/edit/delete.?
If I create one list of department and on adding the entries against each department I will add departmentID for every entry so that I can filter them by department.
but how to allow users for those entries? If I added user for each entry and if any department user changed then I have to change his name from all entries for that department.If the entries are more than 50 or 100 then it will be very difficuelt to handle.
Also for multiple users for single department this is very difficuelt to provide access.
is there any alternate solution for it?

Content retrieved through RIDC after add/edit/delete is not updated

Hi
There is a functionality such that a user is shown the content details like folder name and content under the folder name to be displayed on the portal.
Basically, the metadata of the folder and content need to be displayed and add/edit/delete operations need to be available for the user.
So any updates performed on the UCM content from the portal need to be updated on the UCM.
To enable this functionality made use of the RIDC API. Everything as to content display, add/edit/delete operations are all working fine and getting updated on the UCM front also.
But the issue is that after these operations being performed the user needs to be displayed updated content information on the portal. But while trying to retrieve the results using SEARCH RIDC Service, results are fetching the old data and hence the content information displayed on the page is also stale.
While trying to hit the URL again i.e. a new request then the updated contents get dispalyed.
Can anybody tell me what could be the issue? I am unable to understand the issue.
All this has been done using taskflows.
Thanks

Hi ,
Most probably the content is not indexed in the interval when it is updated and then retrieved with search call . As a test , recreate the issue and then open UCM Web UI - Content Information (of the content updated / searched ) - check the Status value for the latest revision .
Most likely it will be in Done status (if no conversion is being used) .
Second time when you the actual correct data shows up then check the Status and there it would be in Released status .
I believe that you are trying to search / display the content even before the new version is indexed and made available for search .
Thanks

Add/Edit/Delete Tree Nodes using CL_GUI_ALV_TREE

Hi All,
I am looking for an example of program with CL_GUI_ALV_TREE that have a functionality of add a tree node, edit a tree node, and delete a tree node.
I have already looked the BCALV_TREE* demo program but could not able to find a program to add/edit/delete node tree elements.
Any info on this.
Thanks
aRs

Hello aRs
Here is a sample report showing how to delete nodes in an ALV tree. The report was copied from BCALV_TREE_01. Search for added code:
*$ADDED: begin
*$ADDED: end[/code]
When you display the tree expand the first folder completely. When entering 'DELETE' into the command field directly the first flight date node will be deleted.
REPORT ZUS_SDN_BCALV_TREE_01_DELNODE.
based on: REPORT bcalv_tree_01.
Purpose:
~~~~~~~~
This report shows the essential steps to build up a hierarchy
using an ALV Tree Control (class CL_GUI_ALV_TREE).
Note that it is not possible to build up this hierarchy
using a simple ALV Tree Control (class CL_GUI_ALV_TREE_SIMPLE).
To check program behavior
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Start this report. The hierarchy tree consists of nodes for each
month on top level (this level can not be build by a simple ALV Tree
because there is no field for months in our output table SFLIGHT.
Thus, you can not define this hierarchy by sorting).
Nor initial calculations neither a special layout has been applied
(the lines on the right do not show anything).
Note also that this example does not build up and change the
fieldcatalog of the output table. For this reason, all fields
of the output table are shown in the columns although the fields
CARRID and FLDATE are already placed in the tree on the left.
(Of course, this is not a good style. See BCALV_TREE_02 on how to
hide columns).

§2. Create Hierarchy-header
The simple ALV Tree uses the text of the fields which were used
for sorting to define this header. When you use

himself.

only be used for one ALV Tree Control.

ICal 4.0 and Snow Leopard: can't add / edit / delete events + workaround

Hi,
iCal 4.0 under 10.6.1, any changes I made in iCal was reversed when I quit and reopened iCal. Plus my changes didn't sync to my iPod.
When looking at the Console.app, I saw:
2009/09/15 13:31:51 iCal[11918] save failed: Error Domain=CalCalendarStorePersistenceErrorDomain Code=1 UserInfo=0x115d4c780 "The end date can’t be set to occur before the start date. Change the end or start date." {
NSLocalizedDescription = "The end date can\U2019t be set to occur before the start date. Change the end or start date.";
I tried to export / delete / import all my calendars, that didn't help. Then I noticed I also have the calendar automatically generated for the birthdays from my address book.
I unchecked "Show Birthdays calendar" from the General preferences. Now iCal works again (I can add / edit / delete events and the error message doesn't show in the Console.app anymore)
Cheers,
Janus

I have updated my OS to 10.9 hoping this to fix my problem.... but nothing... It's still the same....

However, this happens only with my account. Other users have no such problem. I have also tried going to the "Add-ons" dialogue box through "Tools" then "Options." I still cannot get into the "Add-ons" tab; the dialog box closes. I have tried using the keyboard instead of the mouse; same problem.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

Can no longer add, edit, or delete contacts

I just downloaded the iOS 5 for my 3GS phone. I cannot add or edit contacts now. If I turn the phone off then back on, I get the plus sign to add a contact for a split second, then when the contacts load, it disappears. When I select a contact, the details are displayed, but the 'edit' button does not appear.

What idiot answers their own post? So, after I posted I saw others with a similar problem. I got my add, edit, and delete functions back by going to settings, then selecting iCloud. I turned 'Contacts' to on, selected OK to merge. When complete, I checked my contacts and could then add, edit, and delete. I went back to settings and iCloud and turned the merge off, and went back to Contacts, and could still add, edit, and delete. Hope this helps someone else.

ICloud Server Error: Can't add/edit contacts + it overwrites AddressBook edits

I originally posted this in the MobileMe forum. I am totally frustrated and disgusted with the unreliable and buggy iCloud. I am hoping smarter people than me can help resolve this. Thank you.
My primary data source is/was my MacBook Pro. It was all synced to MobileMe. (Contacts and iCal). iCloud came along. I "upgraded" to iCloud {the frustrating process of "your account needs to be upgraded, create an appleID..." was a whole different pain}.
To make life simple, I even allowed iCloud to be the source of data for my iMac as well as iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S by deleting everything and letting everything be populated from iCloud. Now, supposedly, all my contacts and calendar/reminder data is in iCloud and all the data on the iMac and iPhones if from iCloud.
Except, I cannot make edits to contacts in iCloud or even Add a new contact. When I Add or Save an edit in iCloud, EACH time I get an ERROR and the error report going to Apple is given below.
Worse, I spent an hour cleaning up the freshly downloaded contacts in the iMac's AddressBook. NONE of those changes went up to iCloud.
EVEN worse, iCloud overwrote the changed fields back to the old/blank fields, wasting my hour of work.
Adding cards in AddressBook on the computer also does not propagate to iCloud, though edits to or changes to iCal DO show up in iCloud. But, adds/deletes/edits to Contacts on iMac OR iPhones do NOT show up in iCloud.
Your help appreciated. Regards,
Imran

This is from the iMac console when I tried to delete a contact:
11/20/11 6:05:09.289 AM Address Book: Process com.apple.AddressBook deleting 1 contact
11/20/11 6:05:10.045 AM Address Book: [CardDAVPlugin-ERROR] -getHomeInfo:[_controller containersAtURLs:{(
https://MYNAME%[email protected]:443/########/carddavhome///MYNAME%[email protected]:443/########/carddavhome/
)}] Error Domain=CoreDAVErrorDomain Code=1 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (CoreDAVErrorDomain error 1.)"
The rest of the log is at: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3508969 and not repeated here.

I added this comment to a thread about trying to get rid of iCloud once it has been used... it is much harder than you'd imagine... I am sharing it here because it includes steps I took after the problem we are discussing above....

I love Apple since it started and been a Mac user since it came out. Much that MobileMe was frustrating and had a lousy launch, I thought it was impossible to make something worse than MobileMe. Apple succeeded with this disaster, data destroying, heart burning, stomach churning and hours wasting beast called iCloud.
See iCloud Server Error: Can't add/edit contacts + it overwrites AddressBook edits By IMRAN Happy to have your thoughts on how to solve that nightmare. My last attempt (manually restorying my 5000 contacts in AddressBook, then painfully manually deleting contacts in iCloud {Select All > Delete there gives Server Errors also}. Finally managed. Then resyncing the MacBook Pro to iCloud led to 1000 contacts NOT syncing and no way except manually listing each address list side by side to figure out which ones it missed pulling in. Horror. Disaster. Shame.
For the user who says that turning off iCloud on the Mac and accepting its offer to delete data will delete data only on the cloud, sorry, but, unless I misunderstood you, that is dangerously wrong.
Like an evil spawn of SkyNet and a PC Boot Sector Virus, once iCloud has grabbed your data IT becomes the master of your data, your digital life. Deleting stuff means the stuff on your DEVICE (e.g. MacBook Pro, where you created and have all the ORIGINAL data in that iCloud sucked in) is what will be destroyed. Be careful.
If you're playing with this beast, not only make backups of your data in AddressBook and iCal, but invest in an external drive and clone your whole hard drive.
I am literally having to make a decision tonight, keep my MacBook Pro as the master, and sync via iTunes to the iPhone 4S and 4. I have an iMac mostly for music and video, which it was "cool" to have synced iCal and AB on, though not regularly used. But, after the hours wasted with iCloud, and the repeated data loss, I can live without the iMac being a synced device.
Hope this helps.

Audit Tool for tracking

Hi, Is there any audit tool which can provide us with the details fo the transaction code being used by a particular user along with the data being accessed / activity being performed by using the said t-code.
Kindly let me know as soon as possible.

> 1. Use sm20 and sm21 for audit logs. Check settings via sm19.
> 2. Run st03n for txn details and users.
> 3. Run STAD but you will get limited historical data.
> 4. Run table SGOSHIST.
> 5. Run SCU3 to check table data for logged tables.
> 6. Table CDHDR for Header entry change.
In addition to that you can use various server (specific) logs and extended tracing capabilities, some of which will have performance impacts.
Lets wait for more information about the use-case before answering further.
Cheers,
Julius

BI Publisher Template Builder - Can't add/edit chart

Hi all,
I am trying to edit a BIP template using the template builder.
I can log on successfully using the Oracle BI Publisher / Log In option in the menu bar and I am able to choose the template I want to edit.
Once I open the template, I try to edit one existent chart (right click on the chart / BI Publisher chart) and a chart window appears.
The problem that I am facing is that I can't apply the new layout properties to the chart cause both the OK and PREVIEW buttons are disabled.
I know I am probably missing some step but I don't really know which cause I am enew with BIP.
The strange thing is that I can modify successfully the existent tables or even create new ones, but I can't add/edit new charts.
I am using MS Word 2007 (I have tried with 2000 also in another laptop) with the template builder 10.1.3.4.1 version.
Thanks in advance for help.
Giovanni

Hi Giovanni,
I had the same issue and struggled with it a few hours, but the solution is very simple. Here are some directions for fixing this issue.
1. In the Layout section there are three options to configure: Values, Aggregation and Labels.
2. Make sure you add the fields to the Values option, select aggregation if it applies for your chart.
3. Add the field to the Labels section, then you will enable the preview and OK buttons.
Hope this helps.
