Create a signature when a user runs their logon script.
Hi All,
Is it possible to add a signature by a logon script to a user? I would like to do this as I have over 80 users and going to each individual is becoming a pain. I also don't want them to know there the logos are as they could sign it fraudulently.
When I say logon script, I mean the user runs a script to make their signature. All we need is for it to link to their Microsoft Certificate base and just have the logo that we make.
Please help.
Signatures cannot be on a drive. They are not dissociated from documents. Signatures reside inside signed PDFs. You probably confuse signature appearances with digital signatures. Signature appearances do reside on a hard drive.
I can create my signature appearance that says (in the image on the page) that I am Bill Clinton. But if you open the signature panel and inspect signer's certificate you can see who the actual signer is (unless it is a self-signed certificate in which case the signer's identity is unknown). I believe that your problem is more related to misunderstanding how digital signatures work than being a real problem at all.
Or maybe you are not using digital signatures at all and are using electronic signatures which are just stamps (or images) and you are concerned that someone can access a stamp (image) that belongs to another person and fraudulently sign with this other person's stamp (image). Well, if this is the case then only person who owns a stamp/image must have access to it. You cannot place all stamps/images for all people in one location. You need to place each in a protected location to which only this person has access (like password-protected folder). This is what signature services like EchoSign do.
This is why I like digital signatures so much better. If you procure signer's certificate from a reputable Certificate Authority all these problems (besides signature appearance) just do not exist.

How to remove save, cancel option when end user runs the workbook in Portal
Hi,
how to remove save, cancel option when end user runs the workbook and make some small changes like using page items or increasing rows and columns
I already made 2 changes
1) I removed the option in Oracle Enterprise Manager under discoverer viewer of saving
2) I also removed the option of Allow saving changes made in Viewer when adding workbook to portal
But still the end user gets options of saving when made small changes to workbook like increasing rows and columns
Is their any place, I need to make changes?
Thanks in Advance
RowdheerDon't use JSP to serve a binary file. It almost implies the use of awful scriptlets and the invocation of both the response writer and the response outputstream which would only lead to IllegalStateException headaches in the server logs.
Use a Servlet instead. Specify the file name as request parameter and let the servlet read the file and write it to the outputstream of the response. -
Hi,
I need to create local digital signatures for my users. How can I do that using W2k8 Active Directory Certificate Services? We are gonna sign Office 2010 documents.
What company offers cheap digital signatures solutions?
Thanks in advancedConsider the following:
if you use your local CA server to issue digital signature certificates, there is no cost, because you are eligible to issue so many certificates as you need. However, documents signed by these certificates will be considered trusted only within your AD
forest and other machines that explicitly trust your local CA. Any external client will not trust your signatures.
If you want to make your signature trusted outside your network (say, in worldwide), you need to pruchase a certificate from trusted commercial CA (VeriSign, GoDaddy, GlobalSign, StartCom, etc) according to respective vendor price list. In that case you
don't need to have your local CA server, because it is not used. All certificate management is performed by the external CA. A most common scenario is to purchase signing certificate for particular departament principals (head managers) or few certificates
for a whole company (all documents are revised by a responsible person or persons who holds signing certificate and sign them after review).
so, it is not clear from your post what exactly you need.

Delete credit memo work item created in VA01 when the user change value
Hi,
In T.code VA01 Credit memo request is creating, this document will automatically create work item. Based on Net value in credit memo request, the work item should go for 5 levels of approval. After 1st person is approved, the workflow initiator realized that the net value in created Credit Memo request is wrong; he is going to VA02 and correcting the net value. Again we have to create new work item for this and delete the already created work item. Client has clearly mentioned when ever there is change in 5 critical fields in VA02 then only create fresh work item otherwise no need to create SECOND TIME work item. Net value is one of the critical field in the list.
How to track already created credit memo request and how to delete the previously created work item. What is the feasibility of this requirement and how to handle this situation?
Regards
VijayHi,
Just put a Fork and put 1 out of 2 outcomes and in the first alternative, you put your witem that goes to user B. In the 2nd alternative, put a Wait for event "CHANGED". And after this, put a process control step with "Set workitems to Obsolete" or "Cancel workflow" etc., depending on your requirement.
Pl note that this will only take out old witems, but you need to send a new witem for which you need to trigger another instance of the workflow as well. pl put CHANGED event also as one of the triggering events and use condition editor to restrict the fields that triggers the workflow.
Also, look into the IMG config of the following path. This might be a fitting solution.
In SPRO, go to Financial Accounting (New)---> Financial Accounting Global settings(New) -
>Tools --->Workflow ---> Workflow for Document Parking -->Reset Release Approvals(Customers).
Here, you can list down the fields, the workflow should restart. But, then you need to give the workflow details etc., in the relevant config settings.
We have used this in restarting workflows for General Ledger(GL) documents' workflow when some important fields are changed.
For this config settings, look into the following help link.

Logged-in user info doesn't display after the user updates their info
I created 2 pages. Page 1 has a recordset that displays only the users username and password, I did a filter on this recordset as username = session var = MM_Username. when they click update, which is just a link to page 2, they go to page 2 which has a recordset that filters their user info the same way and allows them to update their username and password. I used an update behavior on this page as well. So, when the user updates their info it DOES change the database info and works great.
The problem: When the user goes back to page 1 to see their updated username and password that they just updated, it is BLANK. no info displays on screen, even when I refresh the page. it's if the MM_Username var is not refreshing while logged-in. Because when the user logs out and logs back in, it DOES display new username and password on page 1.
Now it DOES work when I take the filter off of page 1's recordset, but this won't do me any good b/c the user should of course only see their info.
I am running DW CS3, php, and mysql.

Why does each Creator user need their own install?
Seems to break the Unix paradigm, install one copy of software and all the users can use that same set of executables.
Over 600MB per user is a little heavy, don't you think? That's before doing anything.
David StromHi curmudge1,
The source of the issue is in the installation of our PE as we create the domain within the installation directory. This will cause problems when multiple users run Creator, as the Application Server cannot be modified by your users.
I believe there is an RFE filed on this. Several people have requested this in the past, so hopefully we'll have it fixed in the next release.
If this fix is integrated in a future release, you should be able to run multiple instances using a single installation directory with different user directories, etc.,

When multiple users run my JSP application, why do some users get an Error: 500 SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR for certain JSP pages with the error message No such file or directory. The JSP listed on the Error 500 page varies and is not always the same. When only one user runs my JSP application, the problem does not occur?
The database connection is held when the user logs in or accesses certain parts of the JSP and then is immediately released. No connections to the database are held.

SCCM 2012 powershell only when no user is logged in
Hi All,
I think this is probably me, I am trying to run a powershell script which calls an MSI in the Application node, seems to work fine when the user is logged on, but I wanted to run this as, only when no user is logged on, and install for system. It seems to
start and just exit straight away.
Command line: that I use: powershell.exe -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -file .\Install.ps1 is this correct to run as system?I'm also having a very similar issue. In my scenario, I have a PowerShell script that runs an software update tool with different parameters based on the value of a specific registry entry. I was testing the SCCM Application when logged on and just running
for Software Center and it runs as expected, but when I changed the User Experience from "Run whether or not a user is logged on" to "Only when no users are logged on" and it fails. In the AppEnforce.log the following lines are present:

I've did confirm that the Deployment was not to a User Collection as is implied by the error message and I even went as far as deleting and recreating the Deployment.
In addition, I have another Application (Java 7 Update 31) that I have set to "Only when no users to login" and it installs as expected. When run from Software Center the Status changes to "Waiting for users to log off" and it is installed
after I log off.
Is there some issue with this when trying to run a PowerShell script when logged off?
Thank you in advance for any insight as to this in consistent behavior.

How to create a shortcut for all users in Win 7 and Win 8?
Hi,
I'll trying to make a script that will create a shortcut in every user profile account in a computer. I stumble upon the script below from
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Create-shortcut-in-your-11cfd3de/view/Discussions#content.
Option Explicit

Dim objShell
Dim objDesktop
Dim objLink
Dim strAppPath
Dim strWorkDir

'strIconPath = "\\server\Xyz.ico" 'specify the path to the icon please change to your valid path
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'objDesktop = objShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop")
Set objLink = objShell.CreateShortcut("C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk") 'change here To your shortcut name

I did some modifications to cater to my need. Now the question is, how can I make the script create a shortcut for every user profile from the script above?
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!You could create the shortcut at one machine, then copy it to the target as part of the logon script. Note also that this line contains an error:
"C:\Users\%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk"
It should read:
"%userprofile%\Desktop\Org_chart_test.lnk" -
Random SP2 error when starting oracle process through SHELL script
Hi All,
I am trying to process data in n-Number of tables through a package. The package is called through a shell script to create start data processing. All calls to the package are in a sql script which is basically exec calls-
exec package.process ('T1','some param');
exec package.process ('T1','some param');
exec package.process ('T..n','some param');
I have a shell script which I use to execute commands from the sql script. There is a reason behind using shell script. For some strange reason, I keep on getting -
ERROR: logon denied - check for valid user with valid privileges
SP2-0640: Not connected
SP2-0641: "EXECUTE" requires connection to server
SP2-0640: Not connected
for some EXEC calls. Problem is, errors are generated at random. So in one run, I get error for T10,T11 and then in next run I might get for some other tables.
However, when I am running the sql script from the sql prompt, all calls to the package are executed without any problem.
This makes me think, it is something to do with the way database connection being initiated through UNIX.
Has anyone faced similar issue? Your help/gudence is much appreciated.
DB: Oracle 10.2.0.5
OS: SUN Solaris 10
Thanks in advance.Login credentials are provided inside the shell script.
I did put a sleep(10) after EOF but no help. As mentioned if I run script file from sql promt, it runs without any hiccup. So it is the connection through the UNIX that is causing issue.
As pointed out by Sybrand, I agree that it does not make a sense to connect and commit after every sql statement. So decided to change the shell script and so far, the result from my initial tests on a sample data is quite encouraging. Hopefully I will have a solution.
But it will be nice to know why SHELL is doing what it is doing!!

Powershell User logon script not Exiting With "Exit" scripts are set to be visible in GPO
I am trying to run this script as a user logon script and it is set to visible to the user. There are other parts of the script but It won't ever Exit. It works fine if I run it directly I only have the trouble when it is in the logon script. I'm thinking
of tryin "Kill -Id $PID" but I'm sure I'll get a bad return code.
Has anyone else experienced this or hav any ideas what I could try?
If (Test-Path U:){
Robocopy U:\ $Destination /E /move /XF "*.inf"
New-Item -Path HKCU:\Software\test\test -Name Test –Force
Else{
Exit
Else{
New-Item -Path HKCU:\Software\test\1 -Name Test1 –Force
Exit #here is where it will not stop!
ExitSorry, I did mention this was only a subset of the complete script.
So, what I am trying to accomplish in words.
1. Check for the existence of a certain folderon the c: Drive (that is created as apart of a different process)
2. Look to see if a registry key exisits that tells the script if it should run or not. So if certain registry key exists under HKCU then don't run if not continue.)
3. The first time a user logs in and does not find the value that the process is allready complete show the user a message box aski9ng them if they are ready to do (something) if not write a registry key saying step one has completed and then quit.
4. When the user logs in again the script looks to see if the process is complete and or if step one is complete, if step one is complete it allows the user to skip the process 2 more times but on the forth login forces the user to complete the process and
writes the final registry key that it is complete.
Like I say I have this all working correctly if I manually have the user run it. I just don't know why Exit is not being recognized when in the users login script processing of the script. I appreciate your reply and any direction you can point me to. -
Does OS X automatically run the maintenance scripts?
Can someone tell me if OS X (10.6 or 10.7) automatically runs the Daily, Weekly and Monthly maintenance scripts when my computer is asleep? If not, does OS X cause these scripts to run at the next point when the computer awakes?
Yes, Apple fixed that issue that they would only run in the early AM when most users have their machines off/sleeping and clog the machine up.
No need to worry about having to do anything anymore unless you have a glitchy issue, then the free OnyX will clean your machine's caches out nicely.
