Checking user access status

I'm writing an installer with InstallAnywhere. When the installation is made on a Windows machine we need to set a System Variable, system-wide if possible. How can I check the user's access rights in java? Is there any way to tell if he has full access on his system (ie, logged in as administrator) or not?
I need to be able to do this for every Win32 system.
Thanks,

this code return all system properties U can access
Properties p = System.getProperties();
but I didn't find any information about user access right... :(

  • Checking user password status with SAP JCO

    I am using Jco 2.1. Is it possible to get the status of the user's password (expired or not) using Jco, or is there any BAPI which can do this task. I get an exception in Jco when the user is locked or does not have any access to the respective function groups, but no exceptions in this case. It allows the user to conenct to SAP even when the password has expried.
    In the code, I am using JCo Client connect and disconnect. It connects sucessfully, even when the password has expired in SAP.
    Many thanks in advance. Any pointers to this issue is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Siva

    Note [161146|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/161146] says:
    As of Release 46C, you can prevent the RFC logon with an expired or initial password by setting the profile parameter rfc/reject_expired_passwd (that is, rfc/reject_expired_passwd = 1).
    After you added the profile parameter, you must restart the server.
    So this is a general behavior for all RFC connections and not only for new users. That's why I told you to be careful.
    And furthermore Harald is right. It should be clear what an initial password is. And when the password is regarded as expired can be configured with the profile parameters described in note [862989|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/862989].

    Hi,
    The failing line is
    sqlplus -s $USER/$PASS\@$i <<EOF >> useracctreport.txtYou should test the connect statement you provide to sqlplus. For example:
    CONSTRING=$USER/$PASS\@$i
    echo Connect string used: $CONSTRING
    sqlplus -s $CONSTRING <<EOF >> useracctreport.txtCheck the echoed value. It's malformed. Correct it appropriately.

  • User Access to Public Folders Disappearing (Outlook 2013)

    I have one particular user who is losing access to public folders in Outlook 2013.  I have found that going to
    File > Account Settings > Account Settings > Email [TAB] > Repair... and then following through that dialog temporarily restores public folder access after restarting Outlook.  However, once Outlook is restarted
    for 30-60 seconds, the public folders disappear again. This is only happening for this one user.  They receive their public folder permissions via group membership.  Other group members report no such issue. I had another user with identical permissions
    log into the same workstation and they again had no issue.
    What could be causing this? This is a particularly bothersome problem since this user happens to be the office scheduler and the calendar they schedule on is public (which, thanks to reduced functionality in Exchange 2013, is no longer accessible in OWA).
    Tech specs: Exchange 2013 CU5 accessed from Outlook 2013 running on Windows 8.1 Update.  Outlook did not log any events during the time when public folders were dropped, nor are there any network connectivity issues being logged.
    Any ideas for resolving this?

    Hi,
    Please check the connection status for Outlook.
    Press the CTRL key and right-click the Outlook icon in the notification area, then select Connection Status.
    Please run the command get-mailbox administrator | fl defaul* to check the default public folder mailbox for this affected user.
    Do you have mail-enabled public folders? If you have mail-enabled public folders, you can check if this user can view public folders in OWA.
    If possible, please re-add the public folder permissions for this user to check result.

  • Check the wireless status (Tx/Rx SNR) on my iPhone4

    How can I check the wireless status (Tx/Rx SNR) on my iPhone4? Is there any internal indicator built-in?

    Hi Kgirl000,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you would like to print wirelessly to your Envy 4500 printer.
    When using the Wireless Direct network, you need to connect the devices to the network the printer is broadcasting to be able to print. I have included the description of what HP Wireless Direct is from the
    HP’s Wireless Printing Center.
    HP wireless direct is a new feature that allows your Wi-Fi capable devices (for example: smart phones, tablets, or computers) to make a wireless network connection directly to your printer without using a wireless router or access point. You connect to your printer’s HP wireless direct signal the same way you connect your Wi-Fi capable device to a new wireless network or hotspot.
    I suspect that is not what you are trying to accomplish. Let’s start by connecting your printer to your wireless network. This can be easily accomplished from the front panel of the printer. The steps can be found on page 53 of your User Guide in the section titled “To connect the printer”. You will need to know the name of your wireless network (that is the SSID) and the password to your wireless network.
    To switch your laptop from a USB cable connection to a wireless connection I have included the Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection document. It has a different section for each of the operating systems. Within each of those sections is the instructions to switch to a wireless connection. Please click on your operating system and follow the instructions.
    You should now have no issues printing from your mobile devices when they are connected the same wireless network the printer is connected to.
    Please let me know how it goes.

  • IPAM - Event Log Access Status: Blocked (DHCP)

    Hi,
    I've setup IPAM on a fresh server in our domain. Setup looks like this:
    DC1 - DC,DNS,DHCP (Server 2008 R2)
    DC2 - DC,DNS,DHCP (Server 2008 R2)
    IPAM1 - IPAM Server (Server 2012)
    Provisioning was done via GPO. GPO's were successfully applied on both servers. All three servers are in the same subnet and Windows Firewall is disabled for all of them. After setting the status to managed I still get "Event Log Access Status: Blocked
    (DHCP)", everything else is unblocked. "IPAMUG" was added both to "Event Log Readers" and "DHCP Users". I've been trying to solve this for a few days now, even retried provisioning, but nothing seems to unblock this. 
    It would be really nice if someone could help me out.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thank you for the post.
    Please check that the firewall rules for the target server have been set as per IPAM Access Settings of this

  • Service Desk User access

    Hi Experts,
    I want my service desk users login on Solman and they can update Msg status and ther remarks.
    so what are auth. object needs on there profile, please suggest.
    Can we block users access in such a way , they are not able to do add change on other users issue msg.
    bcoz , if i give access on crm_dno_monitor to any user, he may access and process all issue tickets.
    Thanks
    Andrew

    Andree,
    Actually we provide variants for crm_dno_monitor.
    so they have option of seeing only tickets belonging to themselves only
    For e.g create a variant of crm_dno_monitor by choosing mine and then save it and create a ztcode in se93 for the same.
    assign this tcode for the user menu to the respective role of the user.
    So whn this user logs in and click on the link he sees only mine tickets or tickets belonging to him..he doesnt hav access to crm_dno_monitor.
    Pls assign pts.

  • Multiple users accessing same events

    Good Afternoon, i wondered if anyone could assist me. I have described what is going on and have a few questins which i have added in bold.
    We are a school in the UK running three Apple suites with a mixture of iMacs and macbooks.
    The scenario:  We have local users accessing some video footage to create a trailer and i would like to find the best method for this.
    The Problem:  We opted to use local users rather than network users as i believe imported video events are stored locally. Is this correct?
    Based on the previous problem i have created two users, User1 & User2.  If User1 imports the event then User2 cant see this and would like to work on the same event, then they have to import the event again.  Is there anyway that User1 & User 2 could access the same event without doubling it up?
    The problem does change slightly that if i use a networked user, and run iMovie then they can see the events on the local hdd. This only happens on certain machines.  Any ideas why this would happen?
    If anyone can help in anyway it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    The Problem:  We opted to use local users rather than network users as i believe imported video events are stored locally. Is this correct?
    Yes, the are stored locally, I don't know if Network users do anything more than authenticate over the network then use the local hard drive anyway. That depends on whether or not your users are setup with Network Home drives or are Mobile users that use the local hard drive instead. You might be able to find out from your SysAdmins whether or not Home folders are on a central server of some kind.
    Network users authenticate and have a network home drives.
    Is there anyway that User1 & User 2 could access the same event without doubling it up?
    It seems like there would be a benefit to using an external Mac HD in this case as the permissions on that folder could easily be ignored. Then any user on that Mac will be able to see the iMovie Projects and Events saved onto that external HD and use them without doubling up the Events folder material. Unfortunately I don't think you can force iMovie to use a different folder for the Movies folder on an internal Hard drive. So an external HD might provide an easy workaround if that's possible. And better yet, it makes it all portable BETWEEN Macs if you need to setup on a different machine for some reason.
    Thanks, thats was what i wanted to know.  Although I dont think the department will be too keep on buying a minimum of 30 external hdd.
    This only happens on certain machines.  Any ideas why this would happen?
    I don't want to blame this on how the machines are configured, but it may be the network users are seeing a Network Home folder in some cases when they are logged in, and in other cases they are seeing the local home folder on the internal Mac HD. I'm just guessing at this point. But it should be consistent across all the machines depending on if the network users is a Network Home user or a Mobile user.
    I have double checked and all users are seeing their network home and no local version.
    I just wondered if myabe an older version of iMovie(09) allowed the users to see all events even as local users or network. - bizarre really

  • WebLogic 10.3.0 WLI Domain - Microsoft AD administrator user access issue.

    Hi SOA Experts,
    We are facing issue of getting noaccess exception on console (below) when doing datasource testing using Microsoft AD administrator user. The same works fine when testing using WLS embedded LDAP administrator user in WLI domain. In plain WLS 10.3.0 domain (without WLI) with same Microsoft AD configuration they do not see this issue, they are able to successfully test data source using both embedded WLS administrator and Microsoft AD administrator user.
    I enabled security ATN and ATZ debug flags and below is my observation.
    In plain WLS 10.3.0 domain I see that default weblogic administrator user in embedded LDAP is part of administrators group. Microsoft AD administrator user is part of Administrators group from MS AD.
    Whereas in WLI domain I see that default weblogic administrator user is part of Administrators & IntegrationAdministrators groups. In WLI domain Administrators group is again part of IntegrationAdministrators group (below is debug logs).
    Below is Plain WLS Domain Debug log
    ####<Dec 6, 2010 5:20:14 PM EST> <Debug> <SecurityAtz> <slsol10> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)
    '> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <> <1291674014123> <BEA-000000> < Subject: 2
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSUserImpl("weblogic")
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl("Administrators")
    Below is WLI Domain Debug Log
    <> <1291669863989> <BEA-000000> <XACML Authorization isAccessAllowed(): input arguments:>
    ####<Dec 6, 2010 4:11:03 PM EST> <Debug> <SecurityAtz> <slsol10> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '5' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <>

    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSUserImpl("weblogic")
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl("Administrators")
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl("IntegrationAdministrators")
    The issue of Microsoft AD administrator user not able to test datasource in WLI domain seems to be happening because of IntegrationAdministrators group which comes by default with WLI domain (in plain WLS domain we do not have this group). Looks like the datasource which is being created in WLI domain seems to be being treated as WLI resource and user accessing it is being checked if it part of IntegrationAdministrators group. In this case weblogic default administrator user is part of IntegrationAdministrators, for which we do not see issue where as Microsoft AD administrator user which is not part of IntegrationAdministrators seems to be having problem.
    Below is snipper of Microsoft AD administrator user in Debug logs
    ####<Dec 6, 2010 4:13:31 PM EST> <Debug> <SecurityAtz> <slsol10> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '4' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <>

    <> <1291670011687> <BEA-000000> < Subject: 2
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSUserImpl("MSADAdminUser")
    Principal = weblogic.security.principal.WLSGroupImpl("Administrators")
    Also one more observation about datasource which is created is in plain WLS & WLI domain created datasource resource type is shown as “jdbc” which is expected, but in addition in WLI domain I observe that created datasource resource type is marked as JMX and DS is being considered as application (below), not sure if this has something to do with the issue.
    Below is WLS domain debug log, below you can see that datasource is being treated as JDBC resource which is expected.
    ####<Dec 6, 2010 5:21:03 PM EST> <Debug> <SecurityAtz> <slsol10> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '0' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <> <1291674063776> <BEA-000000> <com.bea.common.security.internal.service.AccessDecisionServiceImpl.isAccessAllowed Resource=type=<jdbc>, application=, module=, resourceType=ConnectionPool, resource=testDS, action=reserve>
    Below is WLI domain debug log, below you can see that datasource is being treated as application and it says resource type as JMX
    ####<Dec 6, 2010 4:12:17 PM EST> <Debug> <SecurityAtz> <slsol10> <AdminServer> <[ACTIVE] ExecuteThread: '4' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <> <1291669937755> <BEA-000000> < Resource: type=<jmx>, operation=get, application=testDS, mbeanType=weblogic.j2ee.descriptor.wl.JDBCDataSourceBean, target=Name>
    I created user in embedded LDAP in WLI domain with same name as MS AD administrator user and assigned it to Administrators group, that obviously works but is not acceptable solution.
    Below is exception thrown on console when testing datasource using Microsoft AD administrator user.

    This issue has been resolved.
    The problem of Microsoft active directory administrator user not able to test the datasource in WLI domain is caused because of IntegrationAdministrators group & IntegrationAdmin role which comes in WLI domain. Assigning the Microsoft Administrator group to IntegrationAdmin role from WebLogic console has resolved the issue.
    Below are steps for assigning the MS AD administrator group to IntegrationAdmin role from console in WLI domain.
    ======================================================
    - Login to console and click on "Security Realms" and "myrealm"
    - Go to "Roles and Policies" tab and expand "Global Roles" tree and "Roles" tree view under it.
    - Click on "View Role Conditions" link for "IntegrationAdmin" role.
    - Click on "Add Conditions" button select Group (default) for "Predicate List" drop down box and click Next button.
    - Specify MS AD admin group name for "Group Argument Name" text box and hit on Add button.

  • Re: (forte-users) access violation caught in debugmode

    Eric,
    There has been a problem with Forte debug mode for sometime now when the app
    is silent. If you attempt to inspect the variables when the app is in the
    'silent' mode, i.e., waiting on an event loop for a user input or a system
    event, then you get the "Access violation caught ..." exception message and
    the workspace including the launch server crashes.
    If you are getting this problem in the 'step-through' mode, you should look
    at the lauch server immediately after you get the exception before
    everything disappears. There could be a stack backtrace due to some illegal
    reference. We have faced a similar situation before but the error appeared
    both in the 'debug' and 'run' modes.
    Hope this helps.

    Hello,
    I have a problem using Forte in debug mode. If I run my program on my NT
    machine from the partition workshop (distributed run), the program works
    fine except that some object does not display what I'm expecting. So I
    want to use the debug mode to inspect the objets of this window. When I
    choose the "local variables" option to see the content of my window, I
    have a "access violation caught" and forte disappears. If I just let my
    program run without choosing this option, everything is the same than
    with the distributed run.
    Does somebody have an idea what to look for ? I really want to look the
    inside the attributes of this window.
    We recently upgraded from release 30G2 to release 30L2. Could it be the
    problem ?

    Eric,
    Another possibility has to do with the repository. You said you recently
    migrated 30G2 to release 30L2.
    Many strange problems have been traced to release migrations with old
    repositories. If the repository was properly migrated another thing you can try
    is to export the project(s) to PEX files, delete them from the repository, and
    then re-import. I know this can be time consuming but I have solved more than
    one unexplained problem in the IDE by doing it.

    If it doesn't help, run through this checklist.
    1. Do you have enough memory resources.?
    2. Is the object you are inspecting held in a lock ?
    ( mutex, transaction lock etc )
    3. Does it work when you wait for sometime at the
    breakpoint before inspecting the values? I mean
    are you interrupting some process thread?
    4. Does it work if you log the attributes using logmgr?
    5. Are you using any call-outs/call-ins? Any external
    systems integration? Sometimes( for reasons beyond
    my comprehension ) the objects allocated outside
    Forte gets corrupted when its passed back and forth.
    6. ...finally...Santa Clause, help me!

    Subject: (forte-users) access violation caught in debug mode
    Date: Thu, 23 Sep 1999 17:31:39 +0200
    Hello,
    I have a problem using Forte in debug mode. If I run my program on my NT
    machine from the partition workshop (distributed run), the program works
    fine except that some object does not display what I'm expecting. So I
    want to use the debug mode to inspect the objets of this window. When I
    choose the "local variables" option to see the content of my window, I
    have a "access violation caught" and forte disappears. If I just let my
    program run without choosing this option, everything is the same than
    with the distributed run.
    Does somebody have an idea what to look for ? I really want to look the
    inside the attributes of this window.
    We recently upgraded from release 30G2 to release 30L2. Could it be the
    problem ?

  • File structure and Multi-user access/control

    Hi All
    Currently evaluating RH. Our plan is to use RH HTML with RoboServer and either SourceSafe or Team Foundation for source control. We will be producing the "printed" manual (PDF) and publishing online help (hopefully html via RH server) from the single source layout
    Given that we will edit content in RH's XHTML editor, I'm not clear on when we should create new files or the granularity of multi-user access. We have 17 apps and I plan to use a master project and merging (because we need to link to related topics in other apps).
    I'm really not sure what should constitute a file in RH. First off, is access controlled at the file level?
    I want to have multiple authors editing the same manual at the same time, so do I need to break the manual into multiple small files (currently it's a single word doc)?
    If I do break it into multiple files, what's the best approach: 1 file per topic (or is this a requirement)?
    Finally, when I come to generate the PDF, will the files be combined. (i.e. can I have different page-breaks than I have in the RH project)?
    Any pointers greatly appreciated
    Regards
    Mark

    Hi,
    First off, is access controlled at the file level?
    Not sure what you mean by that. In source control, you can check in/out ever file independent. Sometimes dependent files will be automatically checked out, for instance images used in the css when you check out the style sheet.
    I want to have multiple authors editing the same manual at the same time, so do I need to break the manual into multiple small files (currently it's a single word doc)?
    That be the idea. Anyway, it's not a good idea to have an entire RoboHelp project in a single topic. You probably want to cut up your contents into the small chunck: topics.
    If I do break it into multiple files, what's the best approach: 1 file per topic (or is this a requirement)?
    In RoboHelp a topic is a HTML file. RoboHelp doesn't force you to split up content into one or more topics. If you are creating help for the web, you want the information to be organized in relatively small chunck so users can quickly scan through it.
    Finally, when I come to generate the PDF, will the files be combined. (i.e. can I have different page-breaks than I have in the RH project)?
    Not sure what you mean by page breaks. As RoboHelp creates HTML files, there are no page breaks such as in paper manuals. When you create a PDF, you combine the topics you need into a single document.
    If a PDF is required for you, you may want to consider not using RoboHelp for your sources. A PDF created by RoboHelp is useful for internal use, but it never seems to get good enough to give to customers. Personally, when a PDF version of a manual is required, I create the manual in FrameMaker and link or import the book into RoboHelp. You can also link Word documents, so you may want to play around with that before deciding whether to use Word, RoboHelp or FrameMaker for your source.
