Automatic logout of Forte clients

We would like to be able to detect if a user has not done anything for a
period of time - so that we can do automatic logouts after x minutes of
inactivity. Detecting inactivity sounds like the sort of job an agent
would do. Has anyone tried anything like this, or got any suggestions as
to how else we might do it - on a Forte client?
Thanks,
Graham Jenkins

Hi,
I would use BAT for that:
1. Create the services and the service profile, enable one user for IM&Presence using the service profile
2. Export all users using BAT in CUCM (Bulk Administration->users->Export Users, run immediately, then change to Bulk Administration->Job Scheduler, when your job is completed you can download the export file using Bulk Administration->Upload/Download Files)
3. Change the file extension from txt to csv and edit the file with your favorite CSV editor, so you enable all users for IM&Presence and add the service profile
4. Upload the file again with the last step in 2.
5. Use Bulk Administration->Users->update Users->custom file to update the user information.
Best regards,
Thomas.

Automatic logout by realm ?

Does anyone know if it is possible to automatically
logout anyone after a specific number of minutes of
inactivity? I want to do this through the custom realm
in the EJB server, not a servlet session. The reason
being that I want to logout all types of clients, not
only web-users.
TIA
Björn

Turn it off in the Security pane of System Preferences.

Automatic logout on Macintosh computers

Hi there,
I have been asked to investigate how to automatically logout Macintosh computers from Bordermanager.
Currently, all of our copies of Firefox and Safari on those computers have a Bordermanager logout bookmark (pointing to proxy:1959/cmd/BM-Logout.htm). However frequently users fail to click this before leaving the computer, which means the next user can use up the previous user's entire data allocation.
My line of thinking is that the answer lies in Macintosh login/logout hooks, which are simply command line scripts that run on login and logout. So my theory is if we can load the Bordermanager logout page from the command line, then we should be able to force a disconnection from the server when a user logs in or out.
I was going to experiment with using 'wget' but I thought I had better run it past the Bordermanager community first to see if someone had done this before, and if so, how did they do it?
Thanks in advance,
Erik

I just realized something here, and thought it would be good to clarify
for anyone reading this. (Especially since I just had a call today on
this very subject).
Running dwntrust removes clntrust from the windows system tray/stops
running clntrust. This does NOT clear proxy authentication. Using the
url for the BMgr logout DOES clear proxy authentication.
Just because clntrust is running doesn't mean that the proxy isn't
still holding old proxy login information for your IP address.
The proxy uses proxy authentication to associate a browser's IP address
to an NDS user ID. In order to avoid authenticating a user for every
packet, the proxy must remember the association for some period of
time. In order to prevent associating the IP address to the same user
forever, there must be a mechanism to periodically clear the
association. So Novell engineered an idle timeout system. By default
(with clntrust - ssl login is configurable) the idle timeout is 3
minutes. After the idle time passed with the proxy seeing no
additional browse requests from the same IP address, it will clear the
authentication. Clntrust only ADDS the authentication, and dwntrust
does nothing about authentication - it just unloads clntrust.
There are 3 ways to clear proxy authentication:
1. Wait until the idle timeout expires
2. Use the clear authentication URL
3. Unload proxy.nlm
Just wanted to clarify there. I had a client of mine call me wondering
why her access rules weren't working. She changed a deny rule from Any
to just Students, and then she logged in as a student. She was still
allowed access. The reason was that the proxy was remembering her
previous login and still had her IP address associated to her
non-student user ID. So she had done everything right when changing
her access rule, but simply was not testing correctly. Had her very
confused for a bit.

How to track the login time and logout times of clients

hai
please give me the solution
suppose there are 5 systems connected in LAN.
how to track the login time and logout times of clients
for a given time(may be one day or 1 hour) using any programming language.
please give me the solution

When the client logs in you write the client's ID and the current time to a database. Likewise when the client logs out. Assuming of course that you have a program that knows when those events occur.

PB17 sleeps due to automatic logout

Does anyone here know how to turn off automatic logout? My PB17 goes to Screen Saver after 15 min, but if I've been in class for an hour and come back to see if I have any messages, my computer is on a black screen and wont go back to the desktop. I have to force shut down-restart the whole thing. This is getting VERY old. Sometimes, depending on what programs are running, the automatic logout is cancelled due to a certain program. Is there a way to fight this so I can have my computer running more than it is now?

You can disable automatic logout from the Security pane of System Preferences.

Automatic logout in SAP System after Pressing Confirm button

Dear all,
We have Stock confirmation Transaction(ZTransaction) coming from SAP System through ITS. Our Issue is When user click on Confirm button in that transaction, background process will run. It is more like running Replenishment in ICH. Then user will be able to see the order pager after 45 min,after pressing Stock confirmation button. but the user is still alive in backend system, this will causing load on the backend system. So want to set automatic logout from that system after pressing confirm button in that transaction.
Can anyone help me or guide the logic to implement in ABAP Program.
Note: User will access this Transaction through Portal.

Automatic logout

I am looking for code which will automatically logout user whenever he refresh page or click on back button.
I am using JSp and Servlets

elOpalo
i checked your answer, but probably its not the answer i am looking for.
you used onLoad() which called at time loading the page
similarly, onUnload() called whenever page unloads or redirect to next page.
In your solution, even though user didn't press back/forword/refresh buttons of browser, and follows normal flow of execution, then also he will get error.
because even though its normal flow of execution whenever next servlet/jsp is called existing one went in state of unload.
and if i wrote code for logout on event of unload then its all making no sense.
i need to implement to make my application secure.
like most of us seem in banking application, whenever user hits back/forword/refresh button, or terminate program abnormaly; he automatically get logout.
please guys help me in this.
I am 2 steps away from my deployment, and still dont have any clue for this problem.
thanks in advance,

DT message on login and automatic logout

Hi,
a user booted the Solaris 9 (SunBlade 150) and proceeded a normal login.
The DT Message came saying to check /etc/hosts and other files, and
did automatic logout. The /var/adm/messages entry is this:
Jul 18 15:59:26 `hostname` dtsession[688]: [ID 684647 user.error] libtt[688]: libtt: startup_ttsession("ttsession -s -d :0") failed with code -1, see syslog
No Syslog entry. The ~/.dt/startlog looks like:
--- starting desktop on /dev/pts/2
/usr/dt/bin/ttsession[444]: ttsession: Tooltalk magic cookie authentication failed due to TT_AUTHFILE_ACCESS.
See system log file (/var/adm/messages) for details.
/usr/dt/bin/ttsession[444]: child ttsession exited with status 1
/usr/dt/bin/Xsession[757]: 425 Hangup
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
It is happening only to this user. Does anyone have any idea how
to correct that?
Thanks a lot for any help ...

In the user's directory, remove .TTauthority and .Xauthority. Check that .dtprofile is degault (may want to copy it from another user). I don't remember if you have to remove .ICEauthority as well. Then have the user log back in.

A Forte Client calling an IIOP enabled EJB

Hi everybody,
I have a stateless session EJB that is to be accessed by a Forte client.
I have generated the IDL files of the EJB home and remote interfaces.
The method called on the EJB takes Strings as arguments and returns a String.
So i would like to know which are the stubs my Forte client need in order to call
the EJB method??
Are they the EJB home and remote stubs only or the stubs of all interfaces and
classes my EJB
home and remote interfaces extend and implement??
thank you very much.
Stan.

and IBM). What kind of client is the forte client? It should have an
IDL compiler if it is a CORBA environment.
andyThank you Andy,
The Forte client needs the IDL files that I produce using the Weblogic tool.
But as you know this produces many IDL files perhaps useless to the Forte client.
So my question is;
Apart from the Home and the Remote EJB interfaces IDL files which are the other
IDL files
my client need to be compiled?
For example, does it need the EJBObject and the EJBHome interfaces IDL files????
Thank you.

How to Automatically Logout Users

We recently created user accounts to enable parental controls for our teens. Very often, someone in the house will have used the mac, but forgets to logout from their account. Since there are different restrictions on different accounts, I would like to find a way to automatically log a user out after inactivity (especially if it is the admin user that has forgotten to log out, as we have NO parental controls!!). I have gone to system prefs and under security have set the automatic logout after 10 minutes of inactivity, but it did not log the user out. It seemed to put the computer to sleep, but NOT log the user out. Help?!?

Hmm ... I found this in the Help files:
+IMPORTANT: You should save any documents you’ve changed and close any applications that may present a dialog before closing. If any dialogs for unsaved documents or open applications appear during the log out, your computer will not finish logging you out.+
Is it possible that you hadn't saved all of your work or that one of your apps had a dialog box showing? Alternatively, Fast User Switching may work better for you. Here's what the Help says about that:
+When a user logs out of the computer, any open documents and applications close. If you want to allow multiple accounts to be running at the same time, you should allow “fast user switching.”+
+When fast user switching is turned on, the name of the current user is displayed in the upper-right corner of the menu bar. You can click the name to select another user to switch to.+
Fast User Switching would eliminate the need to log out when leaving the computer; simply go up to where it gives the name of the account on the top right corner of the screen and select Login Window. All users remain logged in, even when another user is working in a different account, until someone either logs out or the computer is restarted. To enable this, go to System Preferences > Accounts. Then click on Login Options at the bottom of the list of accounts. On the right, check the box that says Enable Fast User Switching and select the view you'd like to see in the menu bar.
I hope this helps!

RE: Native Forte Clients with Express Services

I would be very interested in hearing from anyone using Express who may
have attempted using Native Forte Clients with Express Services, especially
what problems/issues (if any) you encountered and whether you found it to
be a successful way to develop complex screens where the 'look and feel'
can't be achieved with Express alone.I wrote a general-purpose windows framework which uses Express Services for its
database access. Had I known what I was letting myself in for, I probably
wouldn't have attempted it! I started it when Express V1 was fairly new, and
Express Windows did not support the types and complexity of relationships
required by the application we were developing. I soon discovered how
difficult it is to implement a completely general framework which handles every
possible permutation. Obviously I ended up making compromises, but what we
have now meets our needs very well. We are about to upgrade to Express V2, so
the real test will be whether the framework migrates smoothly to the new
release.
If I were starting a new project now with Express V2, I don't know if I would
go down the same path. If you do, be aware of the following (based on my
experience of Express V1):
* Your design MUST obey the fundamental rules of Express Services. Your
BusinessQueries must be fired off by the correct BusinessClient subclass,
your BusinessClass attributes must be logged at the right time (depending
on which concurrency scheme you are using), and you must start and end
Express transactions (different to Forte transactions) appropriately.
* Your design needs to take into account the difference in the way Express
Services handles aggregate and non-aggregate associations.
* If you manage parent-child class relationships from your windows, you must
make sure you set and log foreign key attributes at the right time. If
the relationship is not aggregation, you must also manage the order in
which the records are saved to the database (if you use referential
integrity constraints).
* If you call Express Services directly from the windows, it is hard to
reconcile the asynchronous nature of a windows interface with the
database's requirement for things to happen in a certain order. (From
memory, there was a very good discussion in this user group last year of
what should constitute a unit of work in the windows paradigm.) If I
were doing it again, I would move all the Express-related objects and
method calls from the windows to a separate layer, which would manage
putting together the data from multiple windows, assigning foreign keys
and firing things off in the right order.

We had a similar problem. We reported the problem to Forte technical

The Stopwatch seems to be accurate for long (several second) intervals, but
it can't be trusted for measuring short intervals.

Subject: The Forte Stopwatch
All,
At our site we are using Windows NT 4.0 clients and a Windows NT
Server with Forte 3.0.E.0.
Periodically, we use the Forte StopWatch class to measure durations for
access to data. We've noticed
a strange phenomenon, and we're not sure if it's simply circumstance or if
there's a problem. All of the
measured durations that we receive through the Split method appear to
contain either a 0 or a 9 in the
tenth-of-a-second position. For example, values of 1011 and 1912. Has
anybody noticed this?
Thank you,

Forte Client and Orbix

Has anyone sucessfully connected a Forte Client to an Orbix ORB?
If so, please provide information on how to successfully perform this
operation. I have followed the instructions in the WEB Enterprise manual,
but I have had no success. I have an IOR file which I recieved from the
team who supports the external ORB that I am trying to connect to. I
generated a Forte IDL from the IDL provided to us from the external
system,
but the forte system does not seem to bind to the external system. The
password and ID are correct so this should not be a problem, but the object
associated with the external system's C structure (struct) is NIL which
makes me think that it fails to connect, or never tries to connect. Is
there an exception I can test for that will indicate that forte failed to
connect to an ORB? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Normally, There are 3 servers.
1. Development - For configuration / development
2. Quality         - For end user Testing, training etc
3. Production    - Where the actual / Real time transactions take place.
Under each server, clients will be created for different purposes.
Example,
For development- Normally 3 clients are created,
           1. Golden client - Where the configuration is done
           2. Testing client - Consultant does the testing
           3. Sandbox      - Where consultant can experiment without affecting the other client settings.
Similary in quality server also,we can have different clients for different purposes.
Thanks

Can VI server automatically close access for clients' VIs, if one of clients is already connected?

Can VI server automatically close access for clients' VIs, if one of clients is already connected? and when first client closed reference, open access for other clients' VIs? I mean like when you use web publishing tools. If one user already uses front panel.. other just can wait until first one will finish.

Please stick to one thread. Here is the original.

DSC and security features: automatic logout

Hello,
I'm using the security features of LabVIEW 8.5.1 and the DSC module.
Does someone know how to enable the automatic logout feature (logout after a specified time without user interaction)?
Thanks in advance.
Tom
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello Ben,
meanwhile a NI-Support-Engineer provided an answer for that issue:
If you are using LabVIEW DSC 7.1 there should be an
option in the menu where you can set the minutes of inactivity
until the automatic logout.
In LabVIEW 8.x you will have to implement this on your
own. There is a VI that will do the logout itself but the
timing needs to be implemented by yourself.
So Ben, you are right: this functionality is simply not available anymore in LabVIEW 8.x!
There is an KnowledgeBase document targeting that problem:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/0A8C5B624365A25E8625721100548970?OpenDocument
but the contained example VI doesn't make too much sense.
The problem is that the DSC_Lougout.vi ignores the "idle" in "Minutes idle until logout". It simply logs out the user after a specific time elapsed without considering if the user is still active.
Regards,
Thomas
