Change default security settings for new Discoverer users? How?

Hello, using Discoverer 10g with SSO integration.
I've created two roles and create in advance users in the DB user, granting them
one of the two roles. The two roles privileges for Discoverer are already configured.
This way, when I create the user in the DB before launching Disco, granting the user one or the other role, I should be all set about what the user can or cannot do on Discoverer (Plus).
So far the theory :)
The problem is that the full permission given by Discoverer to each new user override the role settings, so each new user can do everything (instead one of the roles forbids saving and sharing, for example).
I have to go to Disco Admin and uncheck the "Plus/Viewer" checkbox for the user to make roles actually work as expected.
How can I set Discoverer user default as "Cannot do anything" on Plus/Viewer so that roles apply without further admin intervention?
Thanks
Mario

Thanks a lot Rod.
The problem here is we need to allow portal users the ability to access Discoverer Plus without using Disco Admin: once a user is registered in the SSO, he should be able to connect successfully to Discoverer.
So we need creating user privileges on behalf of Disco Admin.
Tough job, but it seems it ca be done.
Regards,
Mario

  • When previewing my website in Dreamweaver flash crashed - I need to change the security settings but don't know how to do this

    I use Dreamweaver and Adobe Bridge to create slide shows on my website. When 'previewing' the slideshow - in Dreamweaver it opens Firefox - it crashed and the dialogue box opens telling me to change my 'settings' - it doesn't do this if I preview in IE - which I don't understand. I need help in knowing where to go to change the security settings so that this doesn't happen. Incidentally, when I am on the web through Firefox, my website slideshows work perfectly>

    You can set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to to -1 on the about:config page to disable the timeout.

  • Change Word & Excel Settings for ALL FUTURE USERS

    We have a computer lab in which each student has his/her own login.  They use Word and Excel 2010 in the classroom.  There are several settings that the teacher likes to set for his students, but currently he must log in to all 120 of the student
    accounts and set the settings.  A summary of those settings is:
    Change default font size to 12
    Change paragraph to single spacing with no space after text
    Add items to the quick launch bar at the top of the screen
    I'm working on setting up a new computer for imaging for him.  Is there any way for me to make these setting changes globally, so that each student gets the correct settings when they log on for the first time?

    Hi,
    For Word, the custom font is customized via the Normal.dotm template, located at %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Templates. Navigate to this location, right click on the template and choose Open. On the Home tab, in the Font group select the font of your choice, then
    right click on the editing area, click Paragraph and select single spacing and other settings you need to configure, click OK then save the file.
    For Excel, the font is customized via a registry key:
    Important
    This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the
    registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry,
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Back-up-the-registry
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\Options
    Name: Font
    Type: REG_SZ
    Value: Arial,12
    After we define the Word template and changed the Excel Font registry key, we need to deploy it globally via an MSP file:
    1. Create a customization .msp file using the Office Customization Tool: drag and drop the
    setup.exe of the Office installation source in the Run box, and pass it the switch
    /admin
    2. This will open OCT (Office Customization Tool)
    3. Select the first option: Create a new Setup customization file for the following product and click OK
    4. We are now ready to add all our files into then MSP
    5. Under Additional Content – click Add Files to add here the template for Word (Normal.dotm). In the
    File Destination Path dialog box, in the Destination path on the user's computer list, select
    %AppData\Microsoft\Templates, and then click OK
    6. Under Additional Content - click Remove files, and then click
    Add. In the File Path dialog box, under
    Path and file name of file to be deleted, enter %AppData%\Microsoft\Templates\Normal.dotm, and then click
    OK. (This will remove any Normal.dotm file from the users’ computers that is from a previous installation of Word.)
    7. In the console tree, click Add registry entries, and then click
    Add. Follow the path I mentioned for Excel: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\Options, type in the information and click
    OK to save.
    8. In the console tree, click Remove registry entries, and then click
    Add. Type in the registry key information above and click
    OK to save. This will remove the previous font setting for Excel.
    We have now finished creating the customization file. You can save it from
    File – Save as – Name.msp
    We are now ready to create the start-up script and add it to the GPO that will deploy these settings to the whole organization.
    To create the .bat file that will be used in the start-up script, please open Notepad and use the following text:
    setlocal
    reg query HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Patches\9EA4D5478DD17EE45B1A1E670AC471BC
    if %errorlevel%==1 (goto Patches) else (goto End)
    REM If 1
    returned, the patch is not installed. Install the patch here.
    :Patches
    "%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe" /p \\server\shared_folder\Name.msp /qn
    REM If 0 or other was returned, the patch is already installed. Do nothing.
    :End
    Endlocal
    Please NOTE that you need to change the
    \\server\shared_folder to point to the correct path and MSP file in your environment.
    Save the Notepad file as Name.bat in the same shared location (\\server\shared_folder)
    On the Domain Controller create a new Policy and assign it to the desired
    Organizational Unit. Edit the policy and go under:
    User Configuration – Windows Settings –
    Scripts (Logon/Logoff)
    Double click Logon – click Add
    Under Script name please type the location and the name of the .bat file we created earlier (please use UNC path and not a drive letter)

    By the quick launch bar, do you mean the Quick Access Toolbar? If so, when you customize the it in a particular application, Office 2010 creates an *.officeUI file for that application that contains the customization XML. With this understanding, you can
    do one of the following:
    •Modify an existing *.officeUI file with the desired customizations by updating the XML code.
    •Create the desired customizations by using the Customization dialog in the Microsoft Office application, apply the customizations, and then browse to the *.officeUI file.
    Please note we need to customize the Quick Access Toolbar in each application.
    Detailed steps to deploy the Quick Access Toolbar can be found in this MSDN article below:

  • How Can I Change Default Zoom Settings For Safari?

    I just got my new iMac and hate the fact that everytime I open Safari everything is small and centered directly in the Safari screen.  How can I change the default settings so it either zooms in more or is in a landscaped mode so I don't have two big white patches on the sides of my window?

    The only way I know of, (and that I use) is as follows:
    Open textedit and create a new document.
    Add the following 3 lines to the file
    body {
    zoom: 175%
    Save the file as "somename.css". I called mine defaultzoom.css and saved it in Documents.
    In Safari go to Preferences | Advanced.
    In the Style sheet: dropdown box choose "other" and browse to the location of your somename.css file.
    That's it, now webpages will open with the default zoom level you used in the file (I use 175% but you need to tweak it for your screen size). Also, I do run into situations where some pages don't render correctly. If that happens you can go back to Safari | Preferences | Advanced and change the Style sheet dropdown box to none until you are done viewing that paticular website. Then just put it back when you are done.

    Changing your SIP domain will effect both Lync 2010 and 2013 (it happens at the top level). 
    Here is some information on doing this: http://blog.insidelync.com/2013/06/anatomy-of-a-sip-domain-change/ 
    I'd suggest getting it right prior to adding in your Lync 2013 topology, just for the sake of simplicity. 
    Rather than changing your SIP domain, is simply adding an additional SIP domain an option?

  • Is there a way to change default Reminder List for new Reminders?

    In iCal, I have Reminders showing.  I have three Reminder Lists, but I've only got one List checked so only that List's Reminders show up.  When I create a new Reminder, iCal always wants to create it in one of the unchecked Lists - always the same List, but not the one currently showing.  I always have to finish creating the new Reminder, and then change it to be part of the other Reminder List.  And, because iCal insists on creating the new Reminder in one of the unchecked (non-displayed) Lists, it checks the box for me so now I have to go an uncheck it again to restore the display of only one List.
    Am I doing something wrong or is iCal Reminder creation just this clunky?
    Is there some way to tell iCal to use a particular Reminder List for creating new Reminders in?

    Duh.  Found it right on the General tab of iCal's Preferences.
    I really don't know how I missed that.

  • How to configure default parental settings for all users (10.7)?

    Hello,
    I've made a silent installation of iTunes using MSI files and it works well.
    I need to enable parental controls and configure it. Users must be preventing of changing these settings.
    At the end of the iTunes installation I automatically created registry keys :
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes\Parental Controls]
    "AdminFlags"=dword:001b7ac5
    "AdminMoviesLimit"=dword:000000c8
    "AdminTVShowsLimit"=dword:000001f4
    "AdminRatingSystemID"=dword:0000000b
    "AdminGamesLimit"=dword:0000012c
    According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2102 it is the procedure to set default parental settings for all users and to lock these settings.
    When iTunes is first launched, parental settings are not set nor locked.
    I use iTunes 64 bits on Windows 7 64 bits.
    Where is the mistake?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Change the default margin settings for the MS word!

    Hi All,
    BI Publisher version:latest 10.1.3.4
    DB:10.2.0.4
    Oracle Apps:12.0.6
    OS:AIX
    We are facing an issue of which description is as below:
    RTF output is being uploaded through "XML Publisher" Responsibility.
    3.1.9 Header and Footer Margin from Edge Not Preserved in RTF Output
    This issue applies to Versions 10.1.3.3, 10.1.3.3.1, 10.1.3.3.2, 10.1.3.3.3, 10.1.3.4, and 10.1.3.4.1.
    Microsoft Word provides a Page Setup option for specifying the margin for the headers and footers from the edge of the page. This option is available by choosing the File menu, then Page Setup, then the Margins tab, and the From edge box. This margin setting is not retained when the output format is RTF. The output is created with the default margin settings instead. The margin settings do work correctly for other output formats such as HTML, PDF, and Excel.
    So, the "default setting" mentioned here is around 1/2 inch for MS Word which is getting added in the output, even if the margin in template is zero.
    Expected output:
    So what we need to do is -
    1. Check the MS word installation on the application server
    2. Change this default margin setting as top and bottom 0 on the server in the MS word page setup. (I can give you steps to do this in word if required)
    We have tried setting this margin to 0 on client side and generating the output and it makes no difference, so it must be coming from the server.
    We need to know how could we modify the settings and need to know te source and Check the MS word installation on the application server?
    Could anyone please share such an issue faced before!
    Thanks for your time!
    Regards,

    Hi All,
    Moreover,
    Our understanding about the RTF output is this -
    When we generate an RTF report output from Oracle EBS, the word document that is generated is with the settings of MS word that is installed on application server.
    This understanding could be wrong as we have never faced such situation before! We have come to this conclusion because the default settings that we do on client machine do not work.
    And as per the documentation of BI publisher the RTF should always be generated with the default settings of MS word.
    So what you could help us with is this -
    1. See if the MS word application is installed on application server ( if you think this is not application server, but any other server then please check there!)
    2. Change the default margin settings for the MS word.
    Regards,

  • Change the default country code for new contacts in Outlook 2013 for countries not listed in Control Panel Region Format

    Dear all,
    I would like to change the default country code for new Outlook 2013 contacts. My country is Mozambique (+258) and is not listed under Control Panel> Region> Formats> Format:
    Is there any place (registry maybe, anywhere) where I can manipulate the existing formats or manually add a new format to the List ??? - for example Portuguese (Mozambique).
    I am using Windows 8.1
    I have tried changing the country on the phone and modem options and nothing changes. Also changing the Home Location on Region> Location to Mozambique didn't change a thing. The only place where I change something and produces results is the
    Format List.
    Any ideias???? If not, is there a place where I can ask Microsoft to include Portuguese (Mozambique) on future windows updates???
    Kind regards,
    Osvaldo

    Hi,
    Windows uses the information set under
    'Phone and Modem'  in the Control Panel to determine the default area code.
    You can change the country/region to
    Mozambique
    and set your area code here:

  • Where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?

    where can I change the font settings for the name of the month in iPhoto's calendar project?  I just ordered two copies of a calendar I designed in iPhoto and was surprised to find that the calendar's months were printing in something like an Arial 10 pt font.  On previous calendars I've printer via iPhoto and Apple, the font was much larger.  I've tried every menu option in iPhoto and the Calendar Project program and can't find where this is modifyable. Which leads me to ask, what the heck happened here in the first place?  I did not consciously change the default.
    I do remember that I got some notice when I first tried to print the calendar about the default font having been changed, but I don't know how this could have happened, and I didn't know what impact that had on the calendar until it was delivered.  I typically print about a dozen annual calendars but won't buy another until I've got a handle on this problem.  For the most part, the rest of the calendar is okay.
    As a P.S. is there anywhere where one can get a power user's manual, or instruction on iPhoto?

    "Maximum" and "12" usually refer to compression (influencing image quality and jpeg file size in bytes); and as Curt wrote, dpi is meaningless for display by and viewing in web browsers.  (It could be a different matter if you are uploading the jpeg files for someone to download from the web to print.)
    What are the sequence of steps that you and your batch processing take from Bridge?
    You can use call Photoshop's Image Processor from Bridge to create the jpeg files  (Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor).  In the Image Processor you can set jpeg compression, pixel dimensions if desired, also convert to sRGB (good idea for web display).  In my experience the image processor leaves unchanged whatever dpi is set in the source file; or, if none there as might be for a pdf, it will set the dpi value in your New Document Preset Print Resolution (from your Photoshop Units & Rulers preferences).

  • Java WebDynpro's and IE security settings for file download

    We have a EP 7.0 SP13 environment on which we have deployed a number of own developed java webdynpro's. In some of these webdynpro's we provide the file download functionality. The portal and webdynpro's are used by both internal personnel and external customers.
    On the other hand the default Internet security settings for Internet Explorer, disable "Automatic prompting for file downloads".
    When a user, with these default security settings active, tries to use our webdynpro's file download functionality, the screen seems to refreshes but no file download starts. When (s)he retries, the session runs for some minutes and gives following error message:
    "com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.session.LockException: Thread SAPEngine_Application_Thread[impl:3]_20 failed to acquire exclusive lock on client session ClientSession".
    This behavior is explained in SAPNote 1234847. Webdynpro provides a single-thread module, meaning a user session is blocked for the during of the request. And because the previous file download isn't yet completed the new try can't start.
    Issue now, although the users IE settings allow file downloads and don't block pop up's, he can't download the file and even isn't made aware of the cause of the failure.
    How can we avoid this issue, without having to communicate the
    application requires specific browser settings?
