Can i use my fingerprint to provide admin credentials?

i have a secondary user account that i use for daily operations on my x220 that is a standard account without admin access. this means that whenever i want to insall anything i have to enter in the admin password. is it possible to use the fingerprint reader for this? i have looked at password manager but that seems to only work within applications and not for windows functions.

hey b3nman,
the option to use the fingerprint to allow you to install software as an Admin while you're currently logged on as a normal user is not possible.

  • So can I use our local internet provider for the e-mail account, or do I have to use Apple?

    So can I use our local internet provider for the e-mail account, or do I have to use Apple?

    Yes, you can use the Mail app on the iPod for your internet mail provider.  Go to your provider's mail support website to find out how to set up the account on the iPod.  They probably will not have instructions for an iPod but the one for the iPhone should do.

  • Can I use Apache to Proxy the Admin Console?

    Greetings.
    We are deploying a new Weblogic environment into a network that we treat like a DMZ. Basically we treat all of our Production networks like DMZs, let's not debate the intelligence or stupidity of this please. We are running on RHEL 5.3 x86_64, with Apache 2.2, with Weblogic 10.3.1 32bit.
    One security flaw we are trying to correct is not having secure access to the Weblogic Admin Console. In this secure environment we intended to use the Firewall, Apache Allow/Deny, and SSL to ensure the console is kept secure.
    In our less controlled networks we use an Apache SSL Virtual Host to proxy the Admin Console but it seems that none of our weblogic admins have ever noticed that inside the browser, half the links are not SSL, and include the Admin Console's port number. Just a snippet of the Admin Console's HTML for the banner across the top shows a how some links are / relative and others are fully qualified with protocol, hostname, port and path.
    In order for my Apache Proxy to work properly the Console must be generating / relative links, is there some way to configure the server's root for the Admin Console or something?
    As of now, unless a better idea surfaces, my options seem to be:
    1. Spending my holiday weekend writing a Perl CGI to be the proxy and content filter all of these bad URLs out.
    2. Using ssh to tunnel to the Admin Console's port.
    3. Using mod_proxy_html to do the same thing as #1.
    Here are options not on the Table:
    1. Firewall rules to allow access to the Admin Console port.
    2. Bridging networks with a spare NIC in the server.
    3. Running the Admin Console as Root and binding to port 443.
    Overall, I can't believe I'm the only one to ever think of or try to do such a thing as proxy the Admin Console, but I can not seem to find any blogs, forum posts, or documentation to suggest a good way to accomplish this.
    Thanks for your time and attention.

  • Can I use the 10402 oledb provider to  connect to an 8i database?

    I have a win2008 x64 server with the oracle 92 client installed, and I installed the 10402 client and oledb provider.
    I need to connect to an 8i database.
    Is this possible? If so, how do I setup my environment to make this work?
    Thanks,
    OracleNewb

    Is it possible that the "ALTER SESSION" error (just when the application try to connect to the database) is due to change of the client? in this case 11?Possible? Sure. We'd need to see the actual error and the actual SQL statement that is being issued, however. It could be any number of things.
    If I have not other option that to use the client Oracle 9.2.0.4 or higher, can I set something in the Oracle 11 instance configuration in order to accept the "ALTER SESSION" sent by the application?
    By the way, there are any "ALTER SESSION" option that was deprecated in Oracle 11 vs Oracle 8?Oracle 8 could mean a bunch of different versions. If you mean, for example, Oracle 8.0.5, there were eleven major releases between Oracle 8.0.5 and Oracle 11.2. You could look through the New Features guides of each major release to look for parameters that were deprecated. But it probably makes more sense to tell us the actual SQL statement that is failing so we can let you know what options you have.

  • Can I use Web Dynpro to provide Web Services

    I know I can use Adative web services model to consume existing web services.  But I have not seen any example to use Web Dynpro as the web service provider.  Can this be done?  If yes, how?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    WebDynPro Java/ABAP are primarily User Interface technologies. Webservices are faceless (without UI ) components that provide certain functionality. Using UI technologies like WebDynPro Java/ABAP etc, we can build a face( UI ) to the webservices.
    DnyPro itself means a screen & WebDynPro is for building web based applciations.
    Hope this resolves your question.
    Well, if you still want to use it as provider & if you have an existing web-service, the way to do it is, Right click on your WebDynPro ABAP component & select CREATE->Service Call. Build a Custom Controller or use the Component Controller to get the service using service type = Webservice proxy for your webservice. You can use this Component as a Used component in any other webdynpro components & use this to access webservices.
    Thanks,
    Phani

  • I can't use my fingerprint for the App Store?

    I tried re setting it again but couldn't.
    I also read that i have to change the "Restrictions" to 15 minutes for the password, but i don't have that option available.
    What can I do?

    It isn't clear from your question whether you weren't able to enable Touch ID for the store or if it is not recognizing your fingerprint when you use it. The following link has a section related to Touch ID for the store that may help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5883

  • Can't use my custom claims provider when access to my site from external url

    Hi,
    I just created a clean SP 2013 (15.0.4641.1000) environment and I have a site collection up and running with access from internal url (http://my_server_name/) and external url (http://cloudshare_external_url/).
    When I access from internal url (with the local administrator account) I can add users to site groups:
    But if I access from external url (with the local administrator account, too) the people picker does not work:
    And if I put the email directly, I get the following error: "Sorry, you are not allowed to share this with external users"
    What am I doing wrong? Am I missing something?

    Hi Sebasl,
    Based on your description, my understanding is that the users cannot be resolved when accessing the site using external URL.
    I recommend to check the authentication provider for the external zone of the web application to see if the custom claims provider is selected.
    Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage web applications > highlight the corresponding web application and then click Authentication Providers in the ribbon > click the external zone.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • Can I Use Skype Free Minutes From a Mobile Phone

    Can you use Skype free minutes (provided with Office365) to call FROM a mobile phone? When I check the free minutes online, I see that they are active on my Skype account, but my Android mobile app does not show any Skype credit?

    If your iPad Mini is a cellular model, you can use Skype (and buy a block of minutes). If only wireless, you can also use Skype on a wireless connection. It saved the day when I forgot my iPhone and needed to make a call. Skype sells phone numbers, but I've never gone that route.

  • How can I use my HP built-in fingerprints sensor

    Hello. I have a DV7 Pavillion that comes with a built-in fingerprints sensor. I bought this laptop in 2010, and the problem is that the software company that used to be in charge of this feature, DigitalPersona, abandoned it and they no longer update the program, which makes it imposible to use online, and I think it isn't working at all even offline. So, my question is, can I still use the fingerprints sensor? Is there the option of downloading another software? How can I do that?
    Thank you for your replies. I am new using this forum, so I hope I am not doing anything wrong.

    Sorry for the late response. 
    I'll be more than happy to help you with this issue.
    First could you provide me with the full model name and number of the notebook you have. 
    Also, I have a couple of questions for you.
    What exactly is the issue with the fingerprint reader? 
    Can you log into windows with it? 
    Can you access websites with it?
    Does the program simple pass give you any issues?
    Or are you just curious on how to work the fingerprint reader in windows 8?

    Hi Amanda,
    Software applications are usually installed in the Applications folder on the Macintosh HD and are accessible to all users.
    I would advise you to check the Applications folder and see if your software is in there.
    Next step would be to Control Click or Right Click on the application and choose "Get Info" and make sure the permissions are set to "Read & Write" for all users. The article below provides more details:

  • My iPhone 5S always asks for my iTunes password before i can use my fingerprint

    I have set my iPhone 5s up, i use the fingerprint sensor to unlock and dowload apps etc, i have gone in to settings, general, Touch ID & Passcode, Touch ID and selected to use the finger print sensor for iTunes & App Store, i put my password in etc, yet every time i try to download an App i have to input my password again before i can use Touch ID! Why??
    Just what is the point of setting it all up, when it is obvious that the Touch ID is not 100% trustworthy, has the password would only need inputting once if it was!
    Really not happy with this repetitive cycle, i may has well of stuck with my iPhone 5, than waste my money on a gimmick!!

    I would try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple if possible or hold for about 15 seconds then let go. If that does not help, I would restore it through itunes on your computer.

  • How can I use Guest network when my internal server provides the DNS?

    How can I use guest network when my internal server provides the DNS? The help article TS4505 tells me to enter an external DNS server, but I believe I can not configure my network that way...

    Apple assumes that you will be connecting the Time Capsule to a simple modem....and.....that the Time Capsule is configured as a router to provide DHCP and NAT services for the network.
    The Guest Network cannot be enabled correctly unless the Time Capsule is in charge of DHCP and NAT services on the network.
    Another way of saying the same thing is that the Guest Network will not operate correctly if the  Time Capsule is configured in Bridge Mode or DHCP Only.
