Case insensitive user login

Hi,
I am working on a Weblogic portal application (Weblogic 10.3.2) to be deployed in a Weblogic Server 10.3.2. I want to enable case insensitive user name login for my application. Looks like by defaule user name goes for a case sensitive authentication. Is there any way to enable case insensitive authentication? Thanks.

Ramakrishnan

Hi
By default Weblogic Login UserId is Case-InSensitive. For quick testing, open your Weblogic Console and say if your admin user id is "weblogic", just try any combination of this value like "WEBloGiC" with his password. It works and you should be able to login.
NOW if you have any External LDAP configured, still you can login with your userid as Case InSensitive. BUT if you see that some Visitor Entilements or DAs stuff is not getting triggered or working properly, then you can do one setting. In your Weblogic Console, select your external AD Provider (like LDAP, AD etc) and click on the properties tab, where you set the host, port, userbase dn, groupbase dn etc. There you should see another property like a CheckBox named something like "Use Retrieved Username as Principal". What this means is if you say for example login as "RJegGA", the login will be successfull but the value that gets stored in the session in security subject value will be like "rjegga" where rjegga is the actual name coming from external LDAP.
So point is, check the above check box and try again. For any users stored in the Default Weblogic Authenticator itself, it is case insensitive.

User Id Case Insensitive Login

Hi All,
I am using jdev version 11.1.1.6.0.
My use case is I want to do use ID case insensitive login.
In weblogic Console Security Realms>myrealm >Providers , we used Providers to do authentication in sequence as below.
1)DefaultAuthenticator-WebLogic Authentication Provider
2)DefaultIdentityAsserter-WebLogic Identity Assertion provider
3)AlfaAesarADAuthenticator-Provider that performs LDAP authentication
4)AlfaAesarDBAuthenticator-Provider that performs DBMS authentication
Is there any configuration option in weblogic console to do user ID Case Insensitive login.
Please help me out in this regard.

Hi, Vivek
In Portal Go to System Administration->System Configuration->UM Configuration->Direct Editing
find out following
ume.logon.security_policy.userid_lowercase=0
and change to
ume.logon.security_policy.userid_lowercase=1
save and restart the server.

RDBMS Authentication - Case insensitive login

I am using the out-of-box RDBMS authentication realm, to authenticate against the
USER_SECURITY table in the portal database. How do I ensure that usernames are
case insensitive?
Thanks
Kunal

Yup. I am actually changing the user_security table to store usernames in all lowercase.
Sucks!

One messy way to do it is to hand crank some of the most obvious combinations
(ALL CAPS. Title Case). But very very very messy

Case Insensitive Search coupled with "LIKE" operator.

Greetings All, I am running Oracle 11gR1 RAC patchet 25 on Windows X64.
This db supports and application that requires case insensitive searches.
Because there are a few entry points into the db I created an "after login" trigger:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER MyAppAfterLogon_TRGR
AFTER LOGON
ON DATABASE
DECLARE
vDDL VARCHAR2(200) := 'alter session set nls_comp=''linguistic''';
vDDL2 VARCHAR2(200) := 'alter session set nls_sort=''binary_ci''';
BEGIN
IF ((USER = 'MyAppUSER') OR(USER = 'MyAppREPORTINGUSER')) THEN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE vDDL;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE vDDL2;
END IF;
END MyAppAfterLogon_TRGR;
This ensures that everyone connecting to the DB via any mechanism will automatically have case insensitive searches.
Now, to optimize the know queries I created the standard index to support normal matching queries:
select * from MyTable where Name = 'STEVE';
The index looks like:
CREATE INDEX "CONTACT_IDX3 ON MYTABLE (NLSSORT("NAME",'nls_sort=''BINARY_CI'''))
This all works fine, no issues.
The problem is when I write a query that uses the "LIKE" operator:
select * from MyTable where Name like 'STEV%';
I get back the record set I expect. However, my index is not used? I can't for the life of me get this query to use an index.
The table has about 600,000 rows and I have run gather schema stats.
Does anyone know of any issues with case insensitive searches and the "LIKE" clause?
Any and all help would be appreciated.

I think there is issue with your logon trigger :
"IF ((USER = 'MyAppUSER') OR(USER = 'MyAppREPORTINGUSER')) THEN"
it should be :
IF UPPER(USER) = 'MYAPPUSER' OR UPPER(USER) = 'MYAPPREPORTINGUSER' THEN
because user name stored in Upper case. Check and try.

Using Session Variables for User Login - sometimes they don't persist... what am I doing wrong?

Hi all,
I'm running a site that requires user login. I approached the building of this site as almost a complete newb to CF (and dynamic coding in general), and it's been a great learing experience (with lots of help from you guys).
However, I guess I never learned the correct way to handle a user login. It seemed to me that I could just test the user-entered credentials against those stored in a database, then set a session variable containg that user's record number. Then, not only would I have an easy way of knowing who this user was and therefore what info to serve him, but I could test for the existence of a valid login on every page in the protected folder, by adding this code to my application.cfc in that folder:
<cfset This.Sessionmanagement=true>
<cfset This.Sessiontimeout="#createtimespan(0,8,0,0)#">
   <cfif NOT isDefined ("session.username") or NOT isDefined ("session.password") or NOT isDefined ("session.storeID")>
     <cflocation url="../index.cfm" addtoken="no">
   </cfif>
...and it goes on to run a query and verify that the session.username and session.password match for the store defined by session.storeID. If not, all session variables are cleared and it bounces you back to the login page. When the user clicks Logout, all I do is delete all the session variables.
This seemed to work great for like a year, but lately I've been getting reports that the login doesn't seem to persist for longer than approx. 20 minutes of inactivity. You can see I specified session variables to remain active for 8 hours (I know that seems like a drastically long login, but it's what's necessary for this application). I've only gotten this report from a few people, and I myself can't seem to duplicate it... I've tested an inactive login for 45 minutes now and it held.
SO: any reason you can think of why session variables would be spontaneously clearing for some people? Would having your router reset its IP address invalidate the session or something? Also, the problem seemed to begin appearing after my host upgraded all their servers to CF9... could there be any relation?
And on a more general note... did I go about this completely the wrong way to begin with? If so, what's the standard way to manage a login?
Lots of questions, I know... thanks very much for any answers or suggestions!
Joe

Ian,
Thanks very much - very helpful information.
Sounds like passing the tokens in every request is probably the way to go for this. I don't think it's likely that any users will be sharing links, unless they actually intend for the recipient to see their info anyway.
Is that all I would have to do, is add the tokens to every path? Would that guarantee that all the session variables would remain valid until timeout or being cleared?
Again, thanks, you've been really helpful.
Joe

Unfortunately this is the nature of HTTP web applications. There is NO state maintained from HTTP request to request. This is by design in the HTTP protocol specifications.
ColdFusion provides two methods to circumvent this limitation. Each method has limitations and caveats. They both rely on the passing of tokens between the client and the server with every request. These tokens can be passed as cookies OR URL (GET) variables. You are using the cookie method, which is the simpler and most common. You may be experiencing the limitation of this method. If something happens to the cookies the session can be lost.
You could pass the (CFID & CFTOKEN) OR JESSIONID tokens through the URL query string with every request. This requires one to add these values to every link, form action, cflocation or other request path in our application. ColdFusion provides the session.urltoken variable to make this easier to do. The tokens will be visible to the user. Also if the links with an individual token is share with other users, via e-mail, chat, social networks, etc and one of these users utilize the link during the life of a session (8 hours apparently in your case). Then that user will access the session of the original user.
Cookie session management is by far the most common choice by CF developers. If these methods do not meet your needs you would need to go beyond the HTTP limitations of web applications. One might be able to accomplish this with a Flex|Air|Flash applications that can be configured to use a continuous connection to the server. Thus not suffer the stateless nature of the normal HTTP request-response cycle.
I do not know if a router resetting would cause cookies to be discarded or otherwise invalidated. But I would not think it is beyond the relm of possibilities.

Error in a report after enabling case insensitive search in conn pool prop

I put the below code in connection pool's connection string to enable case insensitive search.

How do I convert a case sensitive drive to a case insensitive drive?

I have recently purchased a MacMini Server, and installed the 2 internal hard drives in a RAID 0 configuration to obtain the speed and 1 TB capacity, but unfortunately (rather stupidly in retrospect) formatted the drive in case sensitive mode.
On installing the operating system and multiple applications, everything seemed to work well until I tried to install Adobe Acrobat X Pro. This application refuses to install on a case sensitive formatted drive, which I now understand is a common problem.
The question is how can I convert to a case insensitive format without reinstalling all of the software from scratch?
I have a Time Machine backup, and the easiest thing for me would be to reformat the drive, and then restore from the Time Machine backup.
Will this process work? Or will there be some complications and files that will not function if they were originally installed on a case sensitive drive?
Any help is appreciated....

iPartition can do it ( http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iPartition.php ).
from iPartition Help:
Make Case Sensitive/Case Insensitive
HFS+ now supports a case sensitive format as well as the usual case insensitive format. On a case sensitive volume, the names “Readme”, “README” and “ReadMe” would all represent different files, even if they were in the same folder.
This option allows you to non-destructively change a case sensitive volume into a case insensitive one, and vice-versa. If you are going from a case sensitive volume to a case insensitive volume, some of your files may be renamed automatically by iPartition so that they do not clash. If all of the files in the table below were in the same directory, the right hand column shows the new names iPartition would choose for them:
Old name New name
README.txt README.txt
ReadMe.txt ReadMe 1.txt
Readme.txt Readme 2.txt
README README
ReadMe ReadMe 1
Readme Readme 2
Notice that iPartition puts the number before any file extension.
N.B. iPartition does not transform filenames with numbers on the end back into their original forms. There is no way to tell which files were renamed by the user and which were renamed by the conversion process.

SELECT Query to get the Values in Case insensitive Format

Hi ,
This is hari,
I want to select the user name in a table ex: username="HARI" or username='Hari' or username="HaRi" like this
If i wrote the query like
select username from userdb where username="Hari";
it is displaying the records which only matches "Hari" only .
can anybody help me out on this query asap please....
the query should return all the results
which matches any of the following strings as inputs "HARI" or "HaRi" or "hAri" or the like.
Awaiting for Response,
Thanks & Regards
Hari

Another solution is setting NLS_SORT to CI - case insensitive (or whatever_your_language_is_CI) and NLS_COMP to ANSI:
SQL> with t as (
2             select 'HARI' name from dual union all
3             select 'Hari' name from dual union all
4             select 'HaRi' name from dual
5            )
6 select *
7    from t
8    where name = 'hArI'
9 /
no rows selected
SQL> alter session set nls_sort = binary_ci
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> alter session set nls_comp=ansi
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> with t as (
2             select 'HARI' name from dual union all
3             select 'Hari' name from dual union all
4             select 'HaRi' name from dual
5            )
6 select *
7    from t
8    where name = 'hArI'

802.1X wirelss restriction on User Login policies

Hi all,
Seeking some technical idea on Wireless 802.1x setup.
Business requirement is:
"User login policy: to limit the number of concurrent login by a single user only apply to one device at any given time. "
There is no problem on PEAP/MSCHAPv2 login, only thing is the same user credential able to be use and login on multiple device, in the same time.
On the NAD part, we configure these on WLC but still cannot achieve our objective
- advanced eap max-login-ignore-identity-response disable
- netuser maxuserLogin 1
Seeking technical solution on this case, please advice. Is there anything need to tweak on the directory server or ACS part?
The components using as below:
Supplicant 1: Window 7, authentication method using PEAP/MSCHAPv2
Supplicant 2: iPhone iOS version 6.x
Authenticator: Cisco Wireless Controller 5800 Series on code version 7.2
Authentication server: Cisco secure server ACS 5.3.0.40

Anonymous User Login

Hi All,
I have an issue with 'Forgot Password' button in the end user login. When a Forgot Password button is clicked, a Question Login workflow will trigger (I think I am right?) .Now I would like to customize the 'Question Login' workflow as per my requirements, but unfortunately I am not, I modified the system configuration object, but still with no luck I am not able to customize that workflow.
So I thought of using anonymous login page and I can launch my own workflow as per my requirements. I have registered my workflow at 'anonymous end user tasks'. and I try to launch the anonymous login page using the url 'http://localhost:8080/idm/user/anonlogin.jsp'. I am getting the following errors.
An unrecoverable error has occurred processing the request. Contact your system administrator.
Syslog ID = LG-1111-024933.
Only the Reset Administrator may access this view.
I don't know, where I am doing wrong. For the first time I am trying to use anonymous login page.
Did anybody faced similar problems?
Can anybody please post some points, like what is the procedure to use a Anonymous login page?
Thanks in advance

Well, first, I visited Configure > User Interface, and enabled Anonymous Enrollment.
Next, I went to user/login.jsp, and saw "Request Account". I clicked on it, and up popped the user/anonEnrollment.jsp page. (I was looking at using this for one of our requirements; turned out I didn't need it, and did something else).
Anyway, a quick check with Live HTTP Headers for Firefox shows that the post was directly to anonEnrollment.jsp; anonEnrollment.jsp has this at the top:
String anonUser = LoginHelper.getAnonymousUser(session);
if (anonUser == null) {
    String url = "user/login.jsp";
    LoginHelper.redirect(req, out, url);
    return;
}Not a huge amount of help. However, it does establish that there is an "getAnonymousUser" method, which is documented to return "the currently registered anonymous user name if any". And reading the Workflows, Forms, and Views manual, it states that the anonymous main page is for "... when a user who does not have a Identity Manager account logs in, an Identity Manager user object is created ...". Basically, if you're using pass through auth, and have a source system that will let a user authenticate, they can then set themselves up.
So, I visited "anonmain.jsp" after clearing all cookies, and up popped "anonlogin.jsp", with a login box. I entered "anonymous", and lo!, I was logged in, and saw the anonymous user menu. In other words, I was "provisionally" logged in with an account that doesn't really exist (anonymous).
However, I had to provide that extra bit of information, namely, my "fake" user name of "anonymous". I don't know how you'd do that without JSP customization.
Basically, "anonymous" means "has a username, but we don't have an account", rather than "truely anonymous" as near as I can tell. The system will do it for you in the case of "Request Account" (the generated login page has some Javascript code to redirect to anonEnrollment.jsp), but it doesn't seem to be an exposed API.
You might get somewhere with customizing the "Request Account" string in the messages catalogue, and then customizing the anonymous enrollment workflow.

Case Insensitive Indexes

In relation to switching on case insensitive queries using
alter session set NLS_COMP=LINGUISTIC;Can anyone answer the following?
>
Yes, it works.... but I can't for the life of me figure out how to build a linguistic index that the LIKE clause will actually use. Building an index thus, for example:
create index bin_ai on names(NLSSORT("NAME",'nls_sort=''BINARY_AI'''));
makes an index which does get used to good effect by queries such as
select name from names where name = 'Johny Jacobson';
but not by
select name from names where name like 'Johny%';
Hence, in a real-world test with 100,000 records, the LIKE query runs about 100 times slower than the '=' query (3 sec compared to 0.03 sec). Not very scalable. Is there a way to speed this up??
Also is it possible to set session variables such as nls_comp on a database/schema/user level?

Hi,
select name from names where name like 'Johny%';Performance when using the SQL "like" clause can be tricky because the wildcard "%" operator can invalidate the index. For example a last_name index would be OK with a "like 'SMI%'" query, but unusable with "like '%SMI%'.
One obscure trick for indexing queries "like '%SON'" is to create a REVERSE index and them programmatically reverse the like clause to read "like 'NOS%'", effectively indexing on the other side of the text.
You might want to look at Oracle*text indexes, if your database has low DML:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_like_sql_index.htm
If you are 10gr2:
Oracle 10g release 2 has now introduced a case insensitive search method for SQL that avoids index invalidation and unnecessary full-table scans. You can also employ Oracle text indexes to remove full-table scans when using the LIKE operator. Prior to Oracle10g release 2 case insensitive queries required special planning:
1 - Transform data in the query to make it case insensitive (note that this can invalidate indexes without a function-based index):
create index upper_full_name on customer ( upper(full_name));
select full_name from customer
where upper(full_name) = 'DON BURLESON';
2 - Use a trigger to transform the data to make it case insensitive (or store the data with the to_lower or to_upper BIF.
3 - Use Alter session commands:
alter session set NLS_COMP=ANSI;
alter session set NLS_SORT=GENERIC_BASELETTER;
select * from customer where full_name = 'Don Burleson'
Hope this helps. . .

Case sensitive and case insensitive Search

Hi friends,
     Iam doing an Search RFC which will search records based on the search parameters provided at the portal side.
One of the search parameter is a field with 40 character which holds the description(title) of the record.
With this search paramter iam facing case sensitive problem.
Example:
Values in Database Table: ( Can be in any case)
       Record 1: Sensitive
       Record 2: SENSITIVE
       Record 3: SensTive
       Record 4: sensitive
       Record 5: sensTive
     Input to RFC: sens*
     Output: Getting only 4rth and 5th record but not all the records.
       The same is the case with the remaining search parameters(Like user name..).
       Is there any way of getting all the records when searching from the data base (with case insensitive).
       Kindly let me know if there is any possibility.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Swarna Munukoti.

Generally, no. So, you'll either have to use EXEC SQL, or add more fields to the table. You can do this using APPEND structures, which is the SAP approved way of adding fields. If there are suitable user exits in the standard SAP code, then you'll be able to populate the additional fields there, as new records are created, or amended.
Alternatively, create your own Z table with the same key as the standard table and a "search field" which contains the uppercase version of the field you're wanting to search. You can either, again populate in suitable user exits, or, in worst case, have job that runs regularly populating your Z table.

Case insensitive search and index

I created this index on a not null field:
create index indx_prova on

This select should retrive 5 records:
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies
a storage ring for crystalline beam studies
A Storage Ring for Crystalline Beam Studies
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies
Instead I got only 3 records:
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies
A storage ring for crystalline beam studies

How to create case-insensitive account name report?

We have an account report that allows users to enter part of an account name and return matching results. The prompt is case sensitive but I would like it to be case insensitive. This report uses a report prompt and not a dashboard prompt (if it makes a difference), and I can switch to dashboard prompt if necessary.
Since the left pane search for Account Name is case-insensitive and you can select case-insensitive when creating account list views, I am hoping there is a way to apply this same functionality to a report.
I understand I can convert Account Name to upper or lower and tell people to search that way, but that will be a last resort.
Any suggestions on how to make the prompt value and report results for Account Name case-insensitive?
Thanks.

Similarly to all this, and even what the OP is looking to accomplish, is the habit of developers attempting to coerce the database object names into the format of their language - usually .net or some such. So they create tables named something like EmpDepProjectStatus which may make their application code all look consistent, but becomes EMPDEPPROJECTSTATUS when created in the database. Why can they not adapt to the database and name the table EMP_DEP_PROJECT_STATUS so that we do not go blind trying to manage their db objects? Is it their teachers that tell them EveryThingMustBeWrittenLikeThisBecauseTheyCannotStandSeperatingTheWordsThatNameObjectsWithSpaces_WHICH_ARE_UNDERSCORES_IN_MOST_ALL_LEGACY_LANGUAGES?
I do not think that Oracle will ever become case sensitive. Just like COBOL, IMS, IDMS, JCL, BASIC, PL/I, etc. There is just too much code out there that ignores case that it could not be done.
Unless, of course, Oracle creates a init.ora option to set case sensitive. But I doubt (hope most sincerely) that they will never do that.

Case insensitive search on subject name to retrieve a certificate from key chain.

Hi,
I need to find the client certificate from key chain based on the subject name.
Currently, I am using attribute kSecLabelItemAttr and providing the subject name to create the attribute list for the API "SecKeychainSearchCreateFromAttributes" which gives the certificate.
Problem: This certificate search is case sensitive for the subject name.
Question: Is there a way to do a case insensitive search on a subject name to get a certificate on snow leopard? I found the attribute "kSecMatchCaseInsensitive" which works with key "kSecClassCertificate" in the API "SecItemCopyMatching", but the key kSecClassCertificate is only available for 10.7 and later.

Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks!

I think there is issue with your logon trigger :
"IF ((USER = 'MyAppUSER') OR(USER = 'MyAppREPORTINGUSER')) THEN"
it should be :
IF UPPER(USER) = 'MYAPPUSER' OR UPPER(USER) = 'MYAPPREPORTINGUSER' THEN
because user name stored in Upper case. Check and try.
