Disabling Accounts

Hello all,
As users move through the deprovisioning process, we have several stages we wish there accounts to go through. First we want to flag users as non-affiliatied with our organization. This will start a clock and they will have a window of time to continue to use the resources provisioned to them. After a certain amount of time, say a few months, we want to 'disable' their account. Disabling will deprovision their resources, but leave their account with unique id in the system. Further, after more time, say another few months, we will then remove their account from the system.
We need to track disabled users, and record reason for their account being disabled. Any suggests on the best way to accomplish this? I thought that the deprovisioning form could be modified to include a textarea for comments. Put I'm not sure about how to flag an account as "disabled". Since we will want to query for disabled accounts, etc. Would a 'disabled' role be the most appropriate way? If I want to see the comments made during the de-provisioning, am I able to edit an associated audit report so that the comments are displayed?
Thanks for any help!!

We developed processes to handle this for us. Our solution may not be exactly what you are looking for, but I can tell you what we did. We established roles for access to certain resources. So when your account is initially claimed, you might get provisioned a role like "Email User". Then when a disabling event comes along, we remove that role, and add a disabled role, "Disabled Email User". The disabled email user role maintains that the email resource is provisioned, but changes an attribute on the resource to signify the account as disabled. At the same time we schedule a deferred task out in the future (how long depending on our business needs) to remove the disabled role. When we remove roles, we check to see if all roles are gone (including disabled ones). If they are, then we start the processes of deleting or remove the account from our systems.
Hope this helps.

My apple ID was disabled so i had to make a new apple ID, But the disabled apple ID had all my games on it. Is there any way we could enable my disabled account

My apple ID was disabled so i had to make a new apple ID, But the disabled apple ID had all my games on it. Is there any way we could enable my disabled account?????????????????????????

If not this:
Why do I see the message "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons” when I enter my password?
This message means that someone was unable to sign in to this account multiple times. The Apple ID system will disable the account to prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to your information. You'll need to follow the instructions on My Apple ID to reset your password.

Unable to view emails in disabled accounts

hi all
this is my first ever post to Mac discussion forum, after having been a Mac user for 20 years! Wish me luck!
I have a number of accounts set up in Mail. Two of these accounts are no longer active, in that the mailservers no longer exist and I can no longer receive mail into them. This is fine.
The trouble is that if I do the logical thing and disable those accounts in Mail account preferences, all the emails sent and received on those accounts effectively disappear. I know that they are still there, because if I search for them they come up in the list view, but I cannot view the contents, and if I enable the accounts again, there they are.
Mail Help suggests this is intentional:
"Disabled Mail accounts are marked Inactive in the list of accounts in Mail preferences. The disabled account’s mailboxes and messages are removed from the Mail viewer window until you enable the account again, at which point they reappear."
However, I do not wish to leave the accounts enabled as I am prompted for my POP password everytime I collect my other mail, which is a nuisance.
Is there any way around this? There must be a neater way to do it!
thanks
Tony

You might actually try just making a new folder, and dragging the emails into it (in Mail's sidebar).
There is another way around this. In Mail's "File" window, select "import Mailboxes". Navigate to ~/Library/Mail folder, and select the accounts you want to import. Do this for each one (the folder to select will start with IMAP or POP). Then, Mail puts these in an "Import" folder on the sidebar in Mail. Now, disable the accounts.

How to filter disabled accounts out of Dynamic Distribution Groups/Lists?

As far as I understand it, OPATH does not support bitwise and/or flags, so excluding disabled accounts from dynamic distribution lists is impossible, unless I am missing something super simple.
Many have found what they believe to be a valid solution by using -not(UserAccountControl -eq 'AccountDisabled, NormalAccount') in their filter, but this only equates to "anything NOT with a UserAccountControl value of 514 (integer)". Simply
adding "password does not expire" option on the account breaks that filter even if the account is disabled.
Further, it appears anytime you create an OPATH filter, Exchange does create an LDAP equivalent filter that can be read, however it seems you cannot directly edit the LDAPRecipientFilter. If I could, I could put in the necessary bitwise operation needed
for this, e.g. (!UserAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2), but it doesn't seem possible.
Unfortunately I cannot rely on the ExchangeUserAccountControl flag as that relates to just hiding from Address Lists, and I have disabled accounts that need to be in the GAL. Further I have active mailboxes for disabled AD accounts so I cannot use IsMailboxDisabled.
Is this by design? If so I don't understand why. Are there any options (even with Exchange 2013)?

Hi Simon. Thanks for your response.
I'm not sure what additional information I can provide that I have not already regarding the my suggestion/requirement, short of re-stating my original query.
With Exchange 2003, we could simply exclude disabled accounts from dynamic distribution lists via the use of an LDAP filter that used bitwise logic against the UserAccountControl attribute, e.g.
(!UserAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)
With Exchange 2007, direct LDAP queries were deprecated in favor of OPATH. Unfortunately as a result, we can no longer filter out disabled accounts because OPATH does not support bitwise logic -xor -xand, etc. Because of this we can no longer
effectively use the UserAccountControl flags to exclude disabled accounts. We can use this attribute by specifying explicit combinations of flags, e.g.
UserAccountControl -ne 'AccountDisabled, NormalAccount'
But because this attribute is a culmination of bits representing many different account options, there are a large number of combinations of values that could include Disabled Accounts whereby a filter such as above would NOT work. E.g. simply adding
an option to not expire the password on the account renders the filter above invalid.
Currently our only option is to use workarounds which are not very effective (e.g. using a different attribute to store information about disabled accounts and filter on that instead). As accounts can be disabled simply with a right-click in ADUC,
enforcing the use of an additional attribute is not effective.
I would like to understand why OPATH excludes this functionality, e.g. is it a design decision? Or is it simply an oversight? Further I'd like to see this functionality added.

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I suppose I could delete it, but the whole point of multiple accounts is so I can post to either. One is mine, one is my wife's. If it is not enabled why would I need to log into it to post to my own account. The system has no problem associating existing albums with my account, I is only failing to allow me to choose only my account to create an new one. It is clearly designed to handle multiple accounts, but seems to have a bug directing it to ask for the password for a disabled account instead of allowing selection of and posting to the enabled one.

Work Flow for Manually Disabling Account and Reporting on Disabling Account

Hi All
THis is my First Time To Create Work Flow for Idm Project Please Help me
i want Work Flow for Manually Disabling Account and Reporting on Disabling Accounts
Please Tell me How I will have to start, to create the code, I know how to configure but may be I will use BPEL or Through Netbeans and plugin I will use.
please provide me sample code, so that I can start workflow work

Thats configurable buddy ! ! And possible in 10G and 11G both versions.
Functional Roles : These are the groups/roles in OIM 10g/11g with access policies attached at the backend.
- Create a dummy resource and name it Request Role or anything as you like. Attach an Object Form to it and have form field for Role Name, this would be a lookup type field linked to all OIM groups (leave system values using lookup query). So a user can select any OIM Group in this request as per configuration. Have approval workflows defined on this dummy resource Request Role and in its Provisioning Process make user/s a part of the requested group.
- Now once the user is made a part of the group, the associated access policy would be invoked automatically and thereby provisioning. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that create the access policy without approval (there is a check box). If you do this the approvals would never be invoked even if you assign a group manually to the user coz it suppresses all the approvals in this access policy.
IT Roles : These would be linked to the resource and you can define individual approvals on the resources as required.These approvals would be required if someone raises a request for these resources individually.
Thanks

"Disable account if failed attempts exceed x on" group object

When setting up a group in ACS 4.1, how do you include the "disable account if failed attempts exceed x" on the Group object. I see there have been some topics on this for older ACS versions (3.x) where it was not possible. Just wondering if anyone knows if this is possible on ACS 4.1 or possibly 4.2?

Hi,
In newer version also 4.x, this can only be set on only user setup.
Can't set this on group level.

Why are disabled accounts synchronized to AAD

I used the Azure AD Connector to set up WAAD Synchronization.
I used the defaults. Everything seemed to work fine.
After synchronization I see that all of my AD disabled accounts exist in WAAD.
Based on the default rules setup particularly the "In from AD - User AccountEnabled" rule I wouldn't have expected this. Can someone explain to me why this is? And how to remove disabled user accounts from WAAD synchronization.
Thanks!

"In from AD - User AccountEnabled" is a rule that only applies to accounts with the ACCOUNTDISABLE flag set to off, it does nothing to decide whether to sync the object. If you want to exclude disabled user accounts, you need to create a new
rule (or edit some existing one) following the instructions here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn801051.aspx#BKMK_ConfigureAttributeBasedFiltering
For example, this should filter out all the Disabled accounts:
Log on to the computer that is running AADSync by using an account that is a member of the ADSyncAdmins security group.
Open Synchronization Rules Editor by finding it in the Start Menu.
Make sure Inbound is selected and click Add New Rule.
Give the rule a descriptive name, such as "Filter
out disabled accounts", select the correct forest under Connected system, User as the Connected system object type, and Person as the Metaverse object type. In Link Type select Join and
in precedence type a value currently not used by another Synchronization Rule, e.g. 50. Click Next.
In Scoping filter click Add Group, click Add Clause and in attribute select
userAccountControl. Make sure the Operator is set to ISBITSET
and type in the value 2 in the Value box. Click Next.
Leave the Join rules empty and click Next.
Click Add Transformation, select the FlowType to Constant, select the Target Attribute cloudFiltered and in the Source text box, type in True. Click Add to save the rule.
Perform a full sync: on the Connectors tab, right-click SourceAD, click Run, click Full Synchronization, and then click OK.
Here's how the rule looks in PowerShell:
PS C:\> Get-ADSyncRule -Identifier '860a523a-bcb0-4aef-b58e-7d17cb6fbd35'

Disable Accounts

Hey
I am looking to disable Accounts in our new envrionment as the security model is very simple and doesn't require that level of granularity.
When I open Admin Server, I untick Enable Accounts, and click Save. I can then see "UseAccounts=false" added to config.cfg.
However, after I do a restart of the Managed Server, I log on and go into "Administration | Configuration for <server>" and User Accounts is set to True. Simiarly, the "UserAccounts=false" has been removed from config.cfg.
Summary of environment:
11gR1-11.1.1.6.0-idcprod1-120501T084637 (Build:7.3.3.183)
Any suggestions as to what might be going on?
Cheers,
A

My apple id was disabled account. how do I enable it again?

my apple id was disabled account. how do I enable it again? I reset my password and credit card information but it still won't allow me to update my iphone.

Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" appears

How can I keep my child from UNBLOCKING contacts or numbers I have blocked? I know in restrictions when you disable account changes at least on ios 6,this greyed out the iMessage button so the kids couldn't deactivate their text feature.

Here's the issue. Kids got themselves into some trouble on iPods. We set all restrictions any turned off iMessage etc, which I noticed they can't turn back on bc it's gray with the don't allow account changes set. BUT, it still allows Wi-Fi to be turned on and off! How can I disable them being able to turn that on wo asking me?? In ios 7, the blocking feature, fabulous, BUT, how can I keep the kids from UNBLOCKING numbers I have blocked? What I am looking to do actually is allow my kids to be able to text family but block everyone else. And ask me to turn on wi fi. How and can this even be done? Right now my d text is turned off completely. And she knows the inside and out of her device so she can turn wi fi on herself. On vacation she entered the wi fi code of our condo and so I did forget network, which didn't work and wi fi kept connecting anyway wo requiring password again! HELP! Thanks :) Also, they have iPods now but am asking these questions based on them getting our 4s's with ios 7.

TeresaBoo, I empathize with your dilemma and have a similar problem. I'm trying desperately to keep my teenage daughter away from a controlling and abusive boyfriend. Of course, she is in denial and thinks it's love. Sure, I can block text messages through our wireless provider, but iMessages run on an independent network. I can block a phone number from iMessaging on her phone, but she can unblock it just as easily. I wish there was some way for parents to create a password to protect settings. Don't let negative comments get you down. Honestly, if someone can't relate to your question or offer help, why are they even bothering to comment??

How can i update an app that was installed on a disabled account?

I had an account but disabled it because I made another one.
On the app store it says update an app but I cant because it was installed on the first account which is disabled.
Is it possible for me to update it without uninstalling and installing it again on my new account as I dont want to buy the app again?

The only way to be able download the update to the app on your new account would be to delete the app from your iPad (which will also delete all of its content/settings) and buy/download it on your new account - you can't merge accounts nor transfer content from one account to another account.
You might be able to re-enable the first account via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

How do I transfer paid for apps from one disabled account to a working account

I have a iPod Touch 2nd Generation
Recently my old iTunes account got 'disabled', and I have bought many apps over the years. So recently I created another account, but because my old account is disabled so I am not able to update my apps.
What can I do???

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

How to create a disabled account in Active Directory?

Hi all,
I got the assignment to create AD accounts as soon as a new employee is entered into the hr system, which might be several weeks before their contract actually starts. Therefore the account should be disabled until the start of their contract and be enabled then.
Now, I tried a very simple approach and set accounts[Active Directory].disable=true during active sync when creating the account. According to the audit-entries, the value is set correctly, but my AD just doesn't bother. The account is created but not disabled. :-(
What can I do? The workflow so far was just "start -> provision -> end" and I tried to change it to "start -> provision -> disable ->end" with a new action like this:
<Activity id='4' name='Disable AD'>
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='checkoutView'/>
<Argument name='type' value='Disable'/>
<Argument name='id' value='$(user.waveset.accountId)'/>
<Argument name='authorized' value='true'/>
</Action>
<Action id='1'>
<setvar name='view.resourceAccounts.currentResourceAccounts[AD].selected'>
<Boolean>true</Boolean>
</setvar>
<setvar name='view.resourceAccounts.currentResourceAccounts[AD].disabled'>
<Boolean>true</Boolean>
</setvar>
</Action>
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='commitView'/>
<Argument name='view' value='$(view)'/>
</Action>
<Action id='2' process='Provision'>
<Argument name='op' value='provision'/>
</Action>
<Transition to='end'/>
<WorkflowEditor x='736' y='192'/>
</Activity>
However, there is no success. Probably I got some basic misunderstanding, since provision does not seem to complete when the workflow changes from provision to disable?
Any help woud be greatly appreciated.
CU,
Patrick.

You need to use DisableViewer view.
Check following code.
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='checkoutView'/>
<Argument name='type' value='DisableViewer'/>
<Argument name='id' value='$(userId)'/>
<Argument name='Form' value='Empty Form'/>
<Return from='view' to='disableView'/>
</Action>

MK
