Best way to pass secure data between servers

Hello,
In the not to distant future my company wants to expand our
site to include a single sign-on, this will be made possible with
the 3rd party group that handles our customer info. Can someone
enlighten me as the most secure method of transferring user data
between these locations?
What has been proposed is to pass the login from our site to
the 3rd party, if successful pass back certain data, display and
possibly update on our site and then pass this back to the 3rd
party server.
Is CFLogin the most powerful method for login? I've used
query checks in the past, is that adequate or is CFLogin much
better? Any pointers are appreciated.

"Is CFLogin the most powerful method for login? I've used

Neither, CFLogin is really just a specific purpose IF block.
Code
within the opening and closing <cflogin...> tags is run
when a user is
not logged in with the <cfloginuser...> tag. Inside
this block one
still needs to validate the credentials provided by the user,
often with
a query check.
The <cflogin...><cfloginuser...> combination
provides an easy to
interpret and use mechanism to run conditional code and
persist a user
login state from request to request. It is basically
equivalent to ones
own <cfif...> logic combined with session data for the
user state.
Under the hood it is using the same mechanisms.
I usually prefer to roll my own solution because I often want
to store
more state data about a user then is allowed with the
<cfloginuser...>
tag and the related getAuthUser() and isUserInRole()
functions.

Best way to pass back data from hierarchical table view?

Hi,
I have a view hierarchy using a navigation controller that's working pretty well. One of the bottom level views is a table view where the user selects an item from the list. This bottom view checks the list item, saves the selected item in a property, and then pops the view off the stack.
What's the best way to alert the parent view that the child view has been popped off so it can retrieve the value in the property? The calling push returns immediately, so it doesn't appear to be a modal call. I want to be able to use the same controller from other parent forms, so I need to be able to do this without referencing the parent in the child form ideally.
Thanks
Ray

Hi, well let me try to explain it a bit more
- Add a "delegate" property to your child-viewcontroller-class
- Define a protocoll within each chil-viewController-class
In this example let us name it "didSelectValue:(NSString *)value"
- In the parent-viewcontroller before pushing a child-viewcontroller set it's delegate property to "self" (parent-viewcontroller)
- In the parent-viewcontroller implement to protocoll-method "didSelectValue:(NSTring *)value"
- In the child view-controller in (assuming it is a tableViewcontroller) add some code in didSelectRowAtIndexPath that checks if the delegate is set and check if it responds to selector "didSelectValue:(NSString *)value". If so, call it with the selected value.

Best way to pass data sets to another program

Hey
I want to connect another (maths) program with my java application. Therefore I need to paste data (some kind of tab separated table) to this program.
I try now to save these data in a separate newly generated file and to pass a command with Java's Runtime.exec() method to this program to read these data. Is this a good idea or might there be better ways?
If I do so, is there a way in Java to generate some kind of a "temporary" file which will be deleted automatically after usage or is this nothing else than to save it in a common file and delete it afterwards. What's the best way to pass data generally?

Well, the connection will not be over a network, so I'd rather think it's not a Socket or RMI problem (unless someone convinces me).
Yes it's very external, it's a C or C++ written program, I don't have any source codes. So far I generated a file for Input command and data, I passed that on to the maths program and returned the output into another file.
Now I would like to separate the output and like to obtain some tables and graphical things like charts at the output. Do I have to generate three different types of outputfiles? How to store some graphics e.g. some distributions. I thought even of generating a database. I never thought about XML, I don't know if this works for that kind of problem?!

Please Suggest best way to pass Strings in a pipeline

I'm working in a project in which a line passes in a pipeline kind of situation.
The String is passed between different modules and each module adds some more data to it (or may even remove some of it).
Which is the best way to pass the String? I think java.lang.String might not be an efficient method because the String i'll be passing will be modified many times.
Thanx

Yes. StringBuffer or StringBuilder you can use.
String string = "test";
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(string);later you will add some more strings to the StringBuffer
sb.append("Hello World");No additiional String object will be created.

I am giving away a computer, what is the best way to wipe out data prior to depature

i am giving away a computer, what is the best way to wipe out data prior to depature

Did the Mac come with two grey disks when new? If so, use disk one to erase the drive using Disk Utility and then re-install the OS from the same disk. Once installed, quit and when the new owner boots they can set it up as a new out-of-the-box Mac when they boot it up. The grey disks need to be passed on with the computer.
If you need detailed instructions on how to erase and re-install please post back.
If the Mac came with Lion or Mountain Lion installed the above process can be done using the Recovery HD as since Lion no restore disks are supplied with the Mac.
The terms of the licence state that a Mac should be sold/passed on with the OS installed that was on the machine when new (or words to that effect).

What is the Best way to move large mailboxes between datacenters?

What is the Best way to move large mailboxes between datacenters?

Hi,
Are you asking with regards to on-premises Exchange? With Microsoft Online SaaS services (aka Exchange Online) there is no control and no need to control which data center a mailbox resides in.
With regard to on-premises Exchange, you have two choices: you can move it over the WAN in which case you would either do a native mailbox move (assuming you have Exchange 2010 or later you can suspend the move after the copy so you can control the
time of the cutover) or create a database copy in the second data center and once the database copies have synchronized change the active copy.
The other choice is to move is out of band which would usually involve an offline seed of the database (you could conceivably move via PST file but that would disrupt access to the mailbox and is not really the 'best way').
In general, Exchange on-premises questions are best asked on the Exchange forum: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/home?category=exchangeserver

Best way to extract XML data to DB

Hello,
In our work we need to extract data from XML documents into a database. Here are some extra notes:
+ There is no constant schema for the XML documents.
+ Some processing on the XML files is required.
+ The XML documents are very big.
+ The database is Oracle 8i or 9i (Enterprise Edition both) and our framework is NET.
Our questions are:
1. What is the best way to extract the data into the database under the above circumstances ?
2. In case there was a constant schema for the XML documents, would there be a better way ?
3. Is writing the data to text files first, and then loading it via SQL-Loader is an effective way ?
Any thoughts would be welcome. Thanks.

Hi Nicolas,
The answer depends on your actual storage method (binary, OR, CLOB?), and db version.
You can try XMLTable, it might be better in this case :
SELECT x.elem1, x.elem2, ... , x.elem20
FROM your_table t
   , XMLTable(
      '/an/xpath/to/extract'
      passing t.myxmltype
      columns elem1 varchar2(30) path 'elem1'
            , elem2 varchar2(30) path 'elem2'
            , elem20 varchar2(30) path 'elem20'
     ) x
;

What is the best way to pass a constant to a cin expecting a pointer to a value?

I have a cin which has a leg that is expecting a pointer to a value. On the diagram, what is the best way to connect a constant widget to this leg of the cin? Connecting it directly crashes labview as it treats the constant as a pointer to memory.
Thanks

I am not sure that I understand your issue. CIN variables can be Input-Output or Output only. Either way, they are being passed in as a pointer to a value. You can see this very easily by placing down a CIN and wiring a constant integer to it. Next, right-click on the CIN and create the C file. You will see that the parameter list has an int* in it.
If you are still having problems, do you have to create a CIN or can you create a DLL instead? The DLL will give you a few more ways to pass the data than a CIN does with no real performance decrease.
Also, have you read the "Using External Code in LabVIEW" manual? This hsould answer some questions as well.

What is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac?

what is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac? I don't have a time capsule, so I cannot use time machine.
thanks

Your best bet by far is to use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up to transfer directly from the old one.
It's similar to Migration Assistant, but doing it that way will avoid having an extra user account.
Either way, you can connect them via FireWire, Thunderbolt, or your network, but avoid wireless if at all possible. You can connect both to your netwrork via Ethernet, or put a single cable between the two.
See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion for details.

What is the best way to pass a controlling signal out of a sub vi or more than one layer of for loop, while the sub vi or for loops are still running?

I have a vi that runs through two for loops and a while loop, then after a certain number of iterations on the inner while loop it is supposed to pass a trigger to a case stucture to start measurement. I have tried using a local variable attached to a boolean control which in turn is attached to the true case of the case structure involving the measurement sub vi. What is happening is that the boolean control will light on the front panel at the correct # of iterations in the while loop, as if true, but the measurement is not taken, and the boolean control never goes back to false. It remains lit. Am I u
sing the local variable incorrectly? If so, where am I going wrong.

Hello planar,
There are multiple ways to pass control information between loops and VIs and each one has its place. For simple VIs like your example, a local variable will be fine.
The main reason the subVI is not running is that the case structure is not continuously polling the Boolean control. This is because the case structure is not inside a loop and as such will only read the Boolean value once and execute once. Encasing the case structure and control inside the while loop should solve the issue of the subVI not running.

Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+

What is the best way to mimic the data from production to other server?

Hi,
here we user streams and advanced replication to send the data for 90% of tables from production to another production database server. if one goes down can use another one. is there any other best option rather using the streams and replication? we are having lot of problems with streams these days they keep break and get calls.
I heard about data guard but dont know what is use of it? please advice the best way to replicate the data.
Thanks a lot.....

RAC, Data Guard. The first one is active-active, that is, you have two or more nodes accessing the same database on shared storage and you get both HA and load balancing. The second is active-passive (unless you're on 11.2 with Active Standby or Snapshot Standby), that is one database is primary and the other is standby, which you normally cannot query or modify, but to which you can quickly switch in case primary fails. There's also Logical Standby - it's based on Streams and generally looks like what you seem to be using now (sort of.) But it definitely has issues. You can also take a look at GoldenGate or SharePlex.

Best Way to port the data from one DB to another DB using Biztalk

Hi,
please suggest best way to move the data from one db to another DB using biztalk.
Currently I am doing like that, for each transaction(getting from different source tables) through receive port, and do some mapping (some custom logic for data mapping), then insert to target normalized tables(multiple tables) and back to update the status
of transaction in source table in sourceDB. It is processing one by one.
How/best we we can do it using bulk transfer and update the status. Since it has more than 10000 transaction per call.
Thanks,
Vinoth

Hi Vinoth,
For SQL Bulk inserts you can always use SQL Bulk Load
adapter.
http://www.biztalkgurus.com/biztalk_server/biztalk_blogs/b/biztalksyn/archive/2005/10/23/processing-a-large-flat-file-message-with-biztalk-and-the-sqlbulkinsert-adapter.aspx
However, even though a SQL Bulk Load adapter can efficiently insert a large amount of data into SQL you are still stuck with the issues of transmitting the
MessageBox database and the memory issues of dealing with really large messages.
I would personally suggest you to use SSIS, as you have mentioned that records have to be processed in specific time of day as opposed to when the
records are available.
Please refer to this link to get more information about SSIS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141026.aspx
If you have any more questions related to SSIS, please ask it in
SSIS
forum and you will get specific support.
