Bizarre Directories Being Created

I have some very strange direcctories being created in Users/User/Library/Preferences. Is there any method to attach an image to a Post so I can show someone?
I've been in IT for >20 years and haven't seen this in a Unix environment before...hence my concern.
Thank you!

Maybe this topic will help you?

Temp Directories being created C:\ of Windows Workstations

Everyone,
I know I have seen this asked before but I can't find the threads containing the question and/or answers......
Our one and only ZCM Server started life 11.2 and has progressed all the way to 11.2.4 (no monthly updates). I have noticed on all Computer's, temp folders (ie. C:\3a3480522db0eaefc4c9e9, etc.) are created in the root directory during any bundle deployment and never removed. Also a folder similar to {4bb8218c-aebf-4113-882f-b10ae15c8218} exist in the root directory. Workstations are Win 7 - 64 bit. I believe the folder are suppose to be elsewhere but I have no idea what setting I set/changed moved them to the root of the C:\ nor do I know where to change that location back to the default.
Any guidance in resolving this issue would be appreciated!

Pwolff2000,
the temp directories are created by windows updates, not ZENworks (unless you're deploying patches!). As for the other directory, a quick search of the knowledgebase will show you http://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7009965

.DS_Store files on USB thumbdrives - a way to stop them from being created?

Hello!
Forgive me if this has been asked to death, but at school I need to copy homework files back and forth to the school's XP-based computers constantly. Because in any given day I usually update half a dozen files across the "homework" folder on my Powerbook, it's easier just to copy the entire folder (and its subfolders) to my 2-GB, FAT-32 formatted flash drive each night - all 500 files (and 150 MB). Of course, this also leaves hundreds of .DS_Store and ._filename files to clutter "Windows explorer" windows.
My question is how do I remove (and prevent creation of) these files selectively? I know that they are used by the finder to store thumbnails, spotlight comments, and labels. The big problem is that while I want to remove these files from the homework folder (and some other folders), I DO NOT want to remove them from a few other folders on the flash drive - which I use to make quick backups of files from my Mac.
I know that I can prevent OS X from creating them altogether with certain utilities, and I know that I can get third-party utilities that allow me to remove these files from flash drive and/or prevent the creation of the files for entire volumes, but is there something I can do to remove them from only certain folders?
Also, since I do not always know beforehand what directories I might make, I'd like to be able to create a "white list" of only certain directories (and their sub-directories)that won't be touched, while all others will have their ".DS_Store" and "._filename" files removed.
Finally, because I'm often a hurry when I go to copy files, I'd rather not sit there and run terminal commands or a program every time I copy a folder over to the flash drive. Is there some way to prevent them from being created in these certain folders altogether, automatically? An applescript or terminal command that I can program to run from the script menu perhaps? I don't mind opening a program or script, I just don't want to have to sit there manually removing the files.
Thanks,
-Dan

I had a similar problem awhile back and asked for help in the Applescript forum:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=954738&tstart=0
Unfortunately the revised jive software formatting function here in the forums has totally messed up things like posted scripts. What you'll see in the scripts discussed is no longer what was there originally. I just now put a copy of the script I'm using up in zip format here:
http://homepage.mac.com/francines/.Public/CopyStrip2Fat.zip
Unzip and open in Script Editor to get some idea of what it is really supposed to be. The idiot formatting of the revised jive software has replaced some things with a carriage return, a semi-colon, and close quote, thus rendering some lines meaningless.
To see the source of the script I quoted, see this MacOSXHints thread:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20040726164957299
The script is in the comment by cougar718. You might take a look at other comments as well.

Accounts being created with administrative group rights

Hello,
The server is a Windows 2003 R2 Enterprise fully patched used for Shared Hosting purposes. It runs Hsphere control panel. I am trying to identify how the following hack is happening.
1) There are users being created with Administrative group rights.   Below is the EventViewer log for the user creation:
User Account Created:
    New Account Name:    username
    New Domain:    PCNAME
    New Account ID:    PCNAME\username
    Caller User Name:    PCNAME$

    Caller Logon ID:   (0x0,0x3E7)

    User Parameters:   <value not set>
    Sid History:   -
    Logon Hours:   <value changed, but not displayed>
There exists entries as well where the primary group ID is changed to the Administrative group, but I am omitting such.
2) I tried to identify what Caller Logon ID:   (0x0,0x3E7) means. I found out from here:
http://blog.joeware.net/2013/01/14/2667/ that I can use LogonSessions.exe to identify it.
Output from LogonSessions.exe is pasted below (snippet):

That is all great info, but I am not sure I can put together what I have learned to attempt and get closer towards identifying how in the world users are being created and then being assigned administrative group rights.
I am a Linux person mostly, but I am comfortable following a properly explained thread regarding windows 2003 R2 Enterprise issues.
The server is fully patched and it is running Lumension security product. What's more, Norman Malware tracker, tdskiller.exe (Kaspersky) and McAfee rootkitremover.exe have been run without any apparent Malware/Virus infection
Hope someone with advanced admin skills can advise.
Thank you

Hi,
You mentioned that, “I am trying to identify how the following hack is happening”, would you please tell us that why did you think the event represent a hacking behavior?
In a Shared Server Hosting environment, the underlying hosting control panel tool (Hsphere in this case) should be creating only virtual FTP users with a specific group. So no users with Administrative group should be ever created. If this happens,
it constitutes a breach of server security=positive hacking attempt.
>how in the world users are being created and then being assigned administrative group rights.
In addition, would you please be more specific about this question? Did you find the event message on a domain joined machine?
I want to be able to understand in full how/what process is allowing users to be created with Admin rights. In other words, I want to know what IP was used to issue the command, if ASP.net was used (abused in this case), or anything else related to
it so that we can patch this particular hole.
Best Regards,
Amy

Excise Invoice being created before standard Invoice is created

Hi
I create a sales order. With reference to the sales order I create a delivery.
With reference to the delivery, in VF02, if I try to create an Invoice, I get the following message - Excise Invoice created for the Invoice 597500041.
I need the standard invoice to be created first and using the Tcode Ji11n I should create the Excise Invoice.
But instead I get the above message.
What settings should I check and correct.

Dear Vaideeson Marap...
As per my understanding of your question
If excise invoice is being created automatically the movement you create the commercial invoice in (vf01) ,you need to remove the check box in "excise invoice during billing " respective excise group.
Please check and revert
Thanks&Regards

Library Backups No Longer Being Created in 10.1.2

No matter what I do, Library Backups are no longer being created in 10.1.2. This is happening on all 6 of my production Mac Pros and iMacs. I can change the location of the Library Backup folder, but nothing is ever created in the new location. It's as if FCPX no longer knows how to backup libraries.
Some background...
We are working with Libraries and Media files on our XSAN Volume.
OSX 10.9.3
FCPX 10.1.2
We did not notice the Backups were not being performed until one of our Libraries had an issue and we could not find a single Backup of the library.
What I have tried...
Move Libraries to Local System Volume - Still No Backups.
Change Library Backup Location - Still No Backups.
Toggle Library Backup Location to No Backups and then Back to Backups - Still No Backups.
Ensure Proper Permissions on Library Backup Folder - Still No Backups.
Trash FCPX Preferences - Still No Backups.
ReInstall FCPX - Still No Backups.
I am at a loss at what to do next. I can't even see the backup process happening in console, or any errors that might give me a clue as to why it's not working. Short of trying to reinstall Mac OS on one of my production macs, I see no other alternative. Considering I'm having this issue across our entire production system, I'm wondering if this is a very serious FCPX 10.1.2 bug.
Is anyone else having these issues????

Tom Wolsky wrote:
Definitely not working as advertised. I made a new library. Imported some stuff. Futzed around. No backup. Waited more than an hour. Made a new project and always immediately a backup appeared.
I've had pretty much the same results trying to sort out what is going on since the 10.1.2 update regards Library Backups.
I'm getting no backups with newly created Libraries like others, tried all sorts of juggling acts in the new settings arrangement trying to find a way in.
What I have so far discovered is that Libraries are not created until a Duplicate Project is created of the original Project for the Library, then it appears to do as expected.
Seems like a bug.
Hope other users can confirm this.

Create inquiry without material being created

Dear All,
Issue is regarding creation of inquiry, when material not being created.
Requirement is like at inquiry level customer may / may not know the material available, initially customer may not be aware of the products available but they want to buy that material.
Whereas in SAP, material has to be entered which is created in material master.
Is there any soln for the creation of inquiry / quotation (same case with Quotation too) with out material being created.
Regards,
Vijayasharee

Thank you one-and-all for the quick response.
Further i/p's for my query.
Suppose the customer send the RFQ (request for quotation) with their part no. where in that particular material is not produced.
However, once the RFQ is received company is confident enough to start produce that particular material for the first time.
So how to map this ie., customer part no. is known, where as company doesn't have the material as of now, once the material is produced it will have its own part no.
How to send a quotation with out company's part no. is the issue.
I/p's will be rewarded.
Regrds,
Vijayashree

Stop Inbound IDOC's from being created

I want to stop inbound IDOC's for a particular partner (type LS) from being created in our R/3 system. Is there a way to do this? I am aware these can be stopped in the middleware, but this is not possible in our case. I am also aware that I can stop these IDOC's from being processed via the partner profile, however, there will be a huge number of useless IDOC's that will be created in our system and I want to avoid that.
Hence, I do not want the inbound IDOC's to be created in the first place even though they are transmitted to SAP. Is this possible?
Any inputs will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Raghu.

Hi Satwik,
Choose Idoc in WE02.
Get port name, Then in WE21 get RFC name.
Go to transaction SMQS - Here we can block this RFC instead of blocking the queue.

Exchange Office Web Apps Preview Does not work in OWA. An error occurred while the document preview was being created

Hi,
I have managed to configure intergration between Office Web App server 2013 and Exchange 2013 OWA.
I have created a test users Test1 and Test 2. I have given full access on Test2 mailbox to user test 1.
When I login to owa for user test1 and preview the attachment it works fine.
However when I use "Open another mailbox" in OWA and open test2 mailbox and try to preview the attachments in test2 inbox it errors as
" An error occurred while the document preview was being created. Please try again later " as follows
I am new to office web apps server 2013 and implemented it first time. Can anyone suggest resolutions or troubleshooting ?

Hi,
To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
1. Does the error appear when you directly access test 2 mailbox through OWA?
2. Check if there is 141 error in your event log.
3. Check whether Office web app server connects with Exchange server when the issue happens.
Access the URL: https://hostname/hosting/discovery
4. Grant full access permission again and check the result.
For more information about Office web app integration with Exchange, please refer to the following article:
http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/management-administration/exchange-2013-office-web-apps-server-integration.html
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

JDBC -- XI -- IDoc Scenario... IDoc Extension not being created...

Hi,
I hope you can help with this issue... I have a scenario which involves mapping to an IDoc which we have extended. From IDX5 I can see the outbound message from XI and in the XML I can see the extension segments have been properly created. But when the IDoc is posted to the destination system these segments are not there.
I have checked so far...
- The correct IDoc definition with extension has been imported
- The IDoc which is being created contains the extension in the control record
- Refreshed all caches
- Deleted and reimported IDoc metadata
If anyone has come across this issue before, please let me know...
Thanks,
Pete

Hi Pete,
Please check the Idoc receiver communication channel. Apply Control Record Values from Payload should be checked.

XMP files not being created with DNGs...

I'm used to using Bridge with ACR to process Nikon NEFs. But a recent camera update has me experimenting with converting the D3's NEFs to DNG files and editing them with CS2 and Bridge 1.04 which works better on my system. I've also experimented with CS3 and Bridge 2.1.1.9 with the same DNG files.
In both cases XMP files are not being created when working with DNG files. I have enabled "Save image settings in : Sidecar ".xmp" files" turned ON. But they do not seem to be generated and I assume the ACR adjustments are being embedded in the DNG file. Meanwhile doing edits on NEF files continues to create .xmp files as expected.
I find .xmp files to be very useful and I'm wondering why they're missing with DNG files? Are they hiding somewhere other than in the same folder that the images reside in?
Thanks.
Russell

> The information contained in the XMP file is stored in the DNG file so there is no need for a separate file.
Aww, yuck!! That's a real drag...
When editing lots of files (yesterday's shoot produced 8GB) I back everything up to off-line storage and then, after doing all my edits and crops in ACR, I only have to copy over the small XMP files which takes no time at all.
So if I re-edit the DNG with ACR I have to re-copy ALL the files again to the off-line storage.
I used to sometimes even save 2 versions of the xmp files when I needed 2 different crops of the same images, such as doing a wide screen 'cinema' crop for a corporate client's Intranet presentation of their event, as well as more standard crops to be used for their newsletters.
Guess I won't be using DNG any more..
Thanks for the help Kees :-)

Local and Roaming profiles not being created

Hello all,
I'm in need of help and I wondered if there was anyone out there with some suggestions.
The problem is that one of our sites has Netware 5 and Zfd3.2 and there are no longer any roaming profiles or local profiles being created. Volatile user is not used. Roaming profiles go to the users home directory. All file rights are fine. DLU is still working. Novell client on W2K workstations is 4.90. All other sites appear to be OK.
I suspected that the user policy was at fault and so created a test user package and associated a test user to it = same result.
I have checked from top to bottom and compared all settings to other sites and can see no difference or anything unusual. I've been working on this for 2 days now and I'm going grey and bald.
Any suggestions anyone?
I'll buy a pint for anyone with the answer - LOL.
Thanks in advance

Two user id are being created in BO when user is accessing from Window AD

Hello Team,
We are facing a problem in BO XIR3.
1.     Where users are login BO through Window AD login.
2.     When users are login two idu2019s are being created in BO for that user.
3.      One with the same name and another one with appending 0 at end.
4.     For example if user abcd login through window AD in BO there will be two idu2019s are created one is with abcd and another one is abcd0
5.     Here users are already having access to BO thorugh AD aunthtication,
                     For ex: User abcd is having access to BO through Win AD, but when he is login then one more id is being created with name abcd0 in BO.even the alias name is same for both of the ID.
                      here abcd is already in system abcd0 is being created in BO
6     For second created id like abcd0 in BO rights are not given so user is not able to login.
7.     Here when user abcd is login from AD his alias point to second created id in BO(abcd0) and this second id abcd0 is not having access to Bo so users are not able to access BO.
Can you please let me know why it is happening, what went wrong and where ????
Your help will be highly apprecaited
