Detecting user and domain name

I am developing an application that will have an autologin option based on OS current logged user.
How do I determine what the domain name is in Windows?
Thanks

This link has the native windows code to retreive domain name:

How do I find out user and domain names in WL7.0 security

Hi,
I'm moving to WL7.0 security and now weblogic.security.acl.Security.getCurrentUser()
that worked in CompatibilityMode throws NullPointerException. What is the alternative
to deprecated weblogic.security.acl.Security in the new Weblogic security framework?
Also, how can I find the current domain name?
Thanks,
Michael.

User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) and Domain Name Don't have the same Value

Hi
is it possible to have User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) and Domain Name with different value?
Exemple:
domain name domain1.com
and User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) Domain2\user

If you have trust in place, then also you can use trusted domain name to login from trustee domain. Also, UPN suffix can be added.

OS X Server clients can't login after IP renumber and domain Name change

I can not seem to get the logins working again on my OS X server (10.9.4 w/ server 3.1.2 on a 1 yr old. MacMini) after I needed to renumber the IP and change the domain name. I destroyed the Open Directory server, recreated it and created one test account. If I log in to the client with a local account I can connect to the server (Go>Connect To Server) from the client using my newly created account, but when I try to login to the server using the same network account login I get the "shaking head" response immediately. I have rebound the server to this client and it says that network accounts are available, but seem to be at a loss to understand why it won't let me login...
The only error message I see in any of the logs is the following:
(AFP Error Log:) Sep 15 20:21:47 isis.mydomain.com AppleFileServer[3032] <Info>: major error <1>: No credentials were supplied, or the credentials were unavailable or inaccessible.
I'm not sure what credentials it is referring to. I created a self signed certificate that I am using with OD, could that be the one?

Many Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps. Test after each one, and back up all data before making any changes.
1. The OD master must have a static IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address.
2. You must have a working DNS service, and the server's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. Change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
3. The primary DNS server used by the server must be 127.0.0.1 (that is, itself) unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
4. Follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the master.
5. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases. Otherwise delete all certificates and create new ones.
6. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
7. Reboot the master and the clients.
8. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
9. Disable any internal firewalls in use, including third-party "security" software.
10. If you've created any replica servers, delete them.
11. As a last resort, export all OD users. In the Open Directory pane of Server, delete the OD server. Then recreate it and import the users. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.

Username and domain name on Macintosh

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to retrieve username and domain name of current logged in user on Macintosh.
Thanks,

The system property "user.name" gets you the user. TrySystem.getProperties().store(System.out, "");to list all system properties, you might find the one that means "domain" to you.

How to change host name and domain name in installed Cisco Meeting Place Express 2.0?

Hi
I have Cisco Meeting Place Express 2.0 installed on server. Meting Place uses Linux (Red Hat) as base operation system. Please tell me how I can change host name and domain name for Meeting Place Express application to integrate it into corporate domain infrastructure.
Thanks in advance!!!
Sincerely yours
Sergey Bondarenko

Hi
Thanks for your attention for my humble problem.
I have performed Meeting Place Express configuration through the “net” command.
But now unfortunately I can't connect to meeting place through web browser. I just get blank page.
Though I can reach the server with help of ssh. I think my DNS works properly because I can resolve the ip address of cumpxvoice .uclab.com and cumpxweb. uclab.com with help of dig command.
Have you any idea?
A lot of thanks in advance!!
Sincerely yours Sergey Bondarenko
Here I have printed the net configuration output of Cisco meeting Place Express:
[root@cumpxvoice root]# net
This is the MeetingPlace Express network configuration utility.
Up to the point where you save changes, it is safe to hit ^C to get
out at any time, in which case nothing will have changed.
1) List current configuration
2) Configure Ethernet port 1
3) Configure Ethernet port 2
4) Configure service bindings
5) Set host names
6) Set domain name
7) Configure DNS service
8) Configure NTP service
9) Configure routing
10) Done

How to change the full host and domain name on OS X Leopard...

I recently bought an iMac, and I'm trying to configure it for my network. The question I have is, how can I change the host name and domain name from Skuld.local to skuld.tolharadys.net?
After mucking around with a few searches on Google, I've gotten the domain name to stick since running domainname returns tolharadys.net. Also I can change the hostname as reported by 'hostname' temporarily by running 'hostname skuld.tolharadys.net' in Terminal.app. However, this isn't persistent after reboots. Ideas are welcome.

You would need a DNS server on your network configured to answer authoritatively for that particular subdomain.

How to change the name / IP address and domain name for BOE Server

Hello,
We want to change the name / IP address and domain name for BOE Server, please could you indicate the steps or procedure to follow?
I need your help
thank you

If it's 3.1 just change them, shouldn't cause any issues if by domain name you are referring to changing the domain the computer belongs to. If you are changing your domain for AD authentication then you will may have to take quite a few steps if the old domain is going away. Let us know.

Hi,
There are few tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files in the system, how to know which one are effective? If I change tnsnames.ora hostname entry, do I need to change listerner.ora file also?
Thanks.
Regard,
Kenneth.tnsnames.ora is used only by client processes. listner.ora is used only to configure the listener, and that is a server side issue only. In addition, the listener can start without any listener.ora at all, using all default values. See my discussion of tns issues at edstevensdba.wordpress.com
If you are using dbcontrol, you will most likely need to reconfigure it, using the emca utility.

Change Groupwise system name, po name and domain name?

Hello Board,
we want to migrate a Groupwise 7 System (Netware) to a Groupwise 8 System (Linux).
Doesnt sound that difficult, but we dont want to use the names for the system name, the post office and the domain (groupwise domain, _not_ internet domain) which were used on the old system.
Currently iam trying the way mentioned in TID 10077372, which mentions merging the two systems and then delete the old System.
Am i on the right way? Do you have any hints?
Any help appreciated.
best regards
sven

Grewes,
Ok you have a GW system(s) that you do not like the names and you want to change them. Not a problem. As you stated, and as Tommy said -merging works.
The process you need is to build a new GW system -same as the version you have running preferred. Set it up as you like it -name-wise. Then, merge the older systems (branches) into the new system you built. Then you will have to build new domains/post offices and move mailboxes from the old GW branches into the new domains/post offices. When its all done -delete the old, and you are done.
I have done many different variations of this type of migration/merge/consolidation. It works, its just a lot of work. Just make sure to plan it all out on paper first, document it, then go forward.
Good Luck!
Take Care.

Thank you for your reply.
I do not want to keep the names.
If i want to link this domain to another branches domain and the domain
is called the same this doesnt work AFAIK.

User and group names truncated with ls

Hello,
When using the 'ls -l' command the resulting list truncates user and group names that are longer than 8 characters.
Is this a know issue?
I'm running Mac OS 10.4.10.
Thanks,
Anthony

Jun T. wrote:
If a program like "ls" wants to know the username corresponding to the uid, it must call a library function of the operating system. But there are two library functions, one gives the correct username and the other truncates the username.
The basic library function is getpwuid(3) which returns the correct username.
Hello Jun,
I ran a search using Xfind (Rixstep) on /bin for 'userfromuid' and /bin/ls was listed as I might of expected.
Also, /bin/ls was also listed when 'getpwuid' was used as a search Key.
Peeking further into /bin/ls further with Xstrings (which is Rickstep's "adaptation" of the "strings' tool" ) reveals the string '_ getpwuid'.
Does this mean that at some point the 'ls' command can call the getpwuid() directly under some circumstances rather than going through userfromuid() which relies on the cache you mentioned?
The problem is the size of the table; userfromuid() allocates only 8
characters for each username (the number 8 comes from UT_NAMESIZE in /
usr/include/utmp.h), and truncates the username if it is longer. This
may be "fixed" in a future version; or it may not be "fixed" to keep
backward compatibility. I'm not sure.
I've heard that utmpx.h has 'UTXUSERSIZE' which is defined as 32. Does not that allow for user and group names larger than 8 characters?
By the way, I can't find the directory usr/include/utmp.h on my drive.
Is there a way to reset or redefine this 'UT_NAMESIZE' field to more than 8 characters wherever the userfromuid() function stores it?
The commands "users", "who", and "w" read the file /var/run/utmp, in
which truncatd usernames of the currently logged-in users are saved.
Does some command initially call the function as 'ls', userfromuid(), to result in truncated names being saved in file /var/run/utmp as well?
I think there are many programs which depend on this fixed-width utmp
file, so it may not be "fixed" in a future version. "
I believe there are third party tools which rely on the userfromuid() call which require this bug to be fixed in order to display accurate user and group name data.
Thanks for your informative reply,
Anthony

How to retrieve username and domain name on Macintosh.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to retrieve username and domain name on Macintosh
Thanks
Priyanka.

There is no system property for the domain name.
Can you please tell me some other way for solving
this problem.No. If it's not an environment variable (System.getEnv IIRC) and no property, you can't get it without native calls using JNI or Runtime.exec/Process.
