Disabling user account after 24hrs

Hi all.
We have a requirement to disable new user accounts if they are not logged into within 24hrs of creation, I suspect this can be done with some Powershell however I can't really think how.... Any ideas?
Cheers :)

Hi there,
This should get you started.
$when = (get-date) - (new-timespan -days 5)
Get-ADUser -properties created,lastlogondate -filter { created -gt $when } | ? { $_.lastlogondate -eq $null }
It's not a perfect answer to your question but it should get you in the right direction.

Automatically disable user accounts after specific number days Oracle Apps

Hi All,
Is there a way, using group policy or any other method to automatically disable a user account if it hasnt been used (ie,, no has logged on using that account) after a certain amount of days??
This is something I would like to apply enterprise wide, so setting expiry dates on each users object is out, and obviously I only want to apply this to inactive accounts.
Thanks in advance
Saquib

Saquib,
There is no such profile option. However, you can write a code to check LAST_LOGON_DATE in FND_USER table and based on this you can disable/lock the account.

Disable user account after 3 consecutive unsuccessful attempts

Hi All,
I like to implement the logon disable features after 3 consecutive unsuccessful logon attempts .I know that this features can take care of BI tools like Business Objects WEBI . But any idea how to implement this in HTMLDB.
Any early response will be highly appreciable.
Cheers,
Rosy

Hi Rosy,
If you're managing your own account information (e.g. storing users in a table), then you can implement this feature yourself quite easily. You would need to store the number of failed attempts for that user against their entry in the table. In your authentication function (which you have also written yourself) when the user attempts to authenticate you would have a bit of logic that increments the failure count by one if their password doesn't match.
You could also have a scheduled job which runs every X minutes/hours to reenable any accounts that have been locked out.
If you're using an LDAP directory, then this can be done fairly automatically for you if the directory supports it.

Unable to log in to user account after installing windows 7 using Bootcamp

Hi everyone,
I need help. I have been at it for days, I have googled every which way but I am not able to fix this. Basically my problem is that I am unable to log in to my user account after I used Bootcamp to install windows 7. I will explain what I did up until I couldn't log in.
I backed up my user account using Time Machine(I was logged in as the user). The account had FileVault activated and I neglected to disable FileVault before back up. I just didn't think to, it did not even occur to me! Then I partitioned Macintosh HD, I was doing this with my step son and he thought we were supposed to partition the hard drive first before running Bootcamp! After that was done, I couldn't run Bootcamp because obviously we had whipped the HD clean! Anyway, I reinstalled the OS X using the internet, after which I run Bootcamp and successfully installed windows 7. Then I went on to restore my account using Time Machine, only when I try to log in I get the error message "you are unable to log in to the user account at this time". I tried every possible solution I could find on here, including creating a new admin account, deleting the old account but saving the user folder and then routing the new account to the old user folder. Still nothing. I have tried logging in as a root user, reset the master password and deleted FileVault files from Library/keychain in the hope I would access the user account, but to no avail. What's more is that I can't even see the sparse bundle or sparse image files that people keep referring too. I can't even find it on the Time Machine back up! I then thought I would cut my losses and try system recovery using Stellar Phoenix Mac Data Recovery (cost me £81) but it did not recover any of my photos, music, videos or documents.
I honestly can't come to terms with the fact that I am unable to login to an account with 3 years worth of pictures and documents. I am having a hard time letting go. Is there anyway possible to crack this?
Thank you in advance.
By the way, I am running Mountain Lion OX 10.8.4 on MacBook mid 2010

I have this exact problem. Installed Bootcamp on a networked iMac running Mountain lion and and can no longer log in to my Mac user account. Would love if any of the pro users on here can shed a bit of light.

Disable user accounts on Unix, Linux resorces

Hi Everyone
I try to understand disable user account action on Unix, Linux systems
In Resource reference doc. I see the next:
Linux does not natively support Waveset enable and disable actions.
Waveset simulates enabling and disabling accounts by changing the
user password. The changed password is exposed on enable actions,
but it is not exposed on disable actions.
As a result, enable and disable actions are processed as update actions.
Any before or after actions that have been configured to operate on
updates will execute.
So what kind of commands waveset using for this action:
passwd -l <Username>
or just change password?
Thanks

Hi,
The out of the box adapter changes the user's Linux password on disable action.
To Implement locking of account by running "passwd -l username", you need to write a resource action and call it explicitly. Hope it helps

Disabling User Account Control - CUBAC

Installing Cisco Unified Business Attendant Console. Documentation says that on server 2003 / sever 2008 installations, disabling of the user account control is required. It gives a procedure to do this on Server 2008.
The install I'm working on is on Server 2003. I cannot find anything like this. Googling on the subject has led me to believe that this is likely a documentation bug, as I can find no reference to Server 2003 having this feature.
Has anyone else run into this? The documentation appears to have been written by someone who speaks english as a second language, and not thoroughly vetted for correctness.

Hi Clifford,
This would just be for Windows server 2008
CSCtc77367            Bug Details
CUBAC 3.1.1.5 docs need to say "disable User Account Contol" in win2008w.
It appears UAC (user account Control) a new feature found in   Windows Server 2008 will block license files from being properly applied in CUBAC 3.1.1.5.
The installation and requirement docs should reflect that UAC needs to be disabled before installing CUBAC on Windows Server 2008.
Observations:
Go to webadmin, licensing
When you look at that page, you will not see any licensing info; no eval.
It says, no licensing info.
When we turned off UAC, the licensing page showed the eval info for 5 days.
At which point we were able to add the license

My computer keeps going to user account after one minute of idlig. How can I change that?

my computer keeps going back to user account after one minute of idling. The only thing I know I did was to change the time on window themes. Now how do I get the user account page from taking me from my page I am currently reading? Does this after every 60 sec. of no activity.

How do i merge my user accounts after migration assistant

Hello,
How do I merge my user accounts after migration assistant from a time machine back up?

I wonder how to plan what account and rights to have where?
I had my old original account on my iMac, and then I "migrated" the data to a user account, in order to have some advantages with that setup. So everything worked approximately ok in this setup.
And yesterday, I tried migrating to a new Mac, and suddenly I get aware of the fact that the rights on these two earlier accounts were important.
And especially, after doing the migration to the new machine twice, until I got the Mail working, I am now totaly bewildered what solution to aim for? How to merge the two migrated admin accounts - keeping the original admin account is also important, since my file system har special rights for that one.
Could anyone give me more ideas about how to proceed? I think I have working Mail on one of the two migrated account (with 100 000 mails or so, it seems so...). The other account is the one I would like to have.
Also I think I want to use a normal user account, not an admin account for my daily use. And I have to see if things still work if I turn off the admin rights...
Thankful for any advice!

Disable user account on Active Directory??

I sync user account from iPlanet DS to Active Directory through Meta Directory. If I disable user account on iPlanet DS, can meta directory disable the user account on Active Directory Server?

AD has an attribute called userAccountControl. This attribute has a value of 512 when an AD account is active and 546 when it has been disabled. I flow a constructed attribute called userAccountControl with two rules, one for enable and one for disable. The selection criteria for the enable/disable rule is based upon a change in employee status. For example, (%mv.employeestatus%==T). Another way to do this would be a single attribute constructrion rule that calls an external script (written in Perl) that accounts for multiple conditions and then enables/disables the AD account accordingly. In the attribute flow rule, you flow the constructed attribute userAccountControl to mdsAdUserAccountControl (assuming an AD-Specific schema setting in the AD connector).

Disable OID User account after 90 days of inactivity - OIM

Hello there,
I have a requirement where I have to disable a users account if he/she has not logged in since last 90 days into our environment(OID). The users are authenticated via OAM when they are logging in. Does anybody has any idea which attribute in which object class in OID needs to be checked for the last login attempt made by the user and what is the datatype of the same? Is it a date that I can compare after making a initial LDAP context to OID and pointing to each single user?
Really need a solution for this. Please respond.
Many Thanks,
- oidm.

Check the schema description at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28196_01/idmanage.1014/b25348/schema.htm#CFHCGFCC
You create a code that runs daily, check for the last login dates and, if is older than 90 days, you disable the OID user.

Disable User Account Icon

I want to disable the user account icon (circled yellow in the attached image) which is visible on pressing windows key after user log on.
Let me know how to disable this for a single user using registry.
Thank You,
Sagar

Hi,
I don't think this is possible. As this is by design.
Besides, if you want to disable the user account picture, we might follow the below steps:
Go here: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures
Rename user.bmp and guest.bmp to user.ren and guest.ren respectively. (The suffix actually doesn't matter - Just chose ren (stands for 'renamed')
Reboot
Best regards

I'm having a problem with logging into a FileVault-protected user account after restoring from Time Machine backup.

Hi all,
My computer had been running really slowly for a while, so I decided to erase the whole hard drive and reinstall the operating system, and then I was going to restore the files I cared about from Time Machine. The main account, which had all my documents and photos, was FileVault-protected. The last thing I did before erasing the hard drive was to run one last Time Machine backup. As far as I remember, I always ran Time Machine backups with the FileVaulted user logged in.
I don't remember whether I was using FileVault 1 or 2. I had been using FileVault 1, but I installed Lion as soon as it came out and I thought I had migrated to FileVault 2 at that point.
Once I erased the hard drive and reinstalled the operating system, I browsed the Time Machine disk and, within the Users folder, there was no folder for the main user account. When I tried to reinstall everything by restoring from Time Machine backup, I'd get the option for all the user accounts, but when I tried to log in with the main one I'd get the dreaded "You are unable to log in to the FileVault user account "User" at this time. Log in failed because an error occurred." Finally, when attempting to restore from the Time Machine backup again, I noticed something strange: After the computer got to about 10% done restoring, it declared itself completed successfully and rebooted.
I've tried a number of tips that came up from questions about similar issues on the Apple support forum, but had no luck. Is there any way to get these files back? Did they ever even get backed up?
Thanks.

I can't find it! not sure what's going on but the only folder shown is the " Shared" folder.
Did you have only the one user account? If there were others, they should also be in the "Users" folder. You probably won't have access to the files inside them, but they should be there.
From what can make out, it looks like it's not backed up any of the files for the filevault account. Can't see user folder when looking through previous backups in Time Machine galaxy view.
Are you doing that from a Finder window set to your internal HD, or your computer name? It should look something like this (with the Finder in List view):

I'd been logging out and backing up manually on a regular basis.
Scheduled backups should run normally; but they won't back up the File Vault sparse bundle, nor will any run manually.
The only time it's backed-up is when you actually log out.
You should have seen this window on logout:

followed by this one:

If you didn't see the second one, or cancelled it, the account wasn't backed-up.

Separate user accounts after already used 2 ipod nanos in admin account

My daughter purchased a nano a month ago and we downloaded the software. (Note: The kids already had their own user accounts before I downloaded the software.) When she set up her music in the library and plugged her ipod in she was in my admin account. This week my son purchased his own nano and I couldn't figure out how to get them separate libraries, so we had them do separate playlist, but that was kind of a pain. I checked the discussions and found out that if they had separate user accounts they could have separate libraries. I asked someone about how to be able to set up separate iTunes libraries for each person and they said to open iTunes in their accounts and make sure that their libraries are directed to different files (i.e., each of their names) which they were. After they downloaded all their music they wanted in their separate libraries, they plugged their ipod into the USB, but it didn't recognize it. The ipod category in the source file does not show up and the ipod button that usually shows up in the bottom right hand corner doesn't even show up. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the ipods to recognize their new accounts in the separate user accounts?

Easiest is prob to restart the PC and log on as one kid, update one iPod.
Then totally log off that account and log on as the other kid, update other iPod.
There is a program, iTunesHelper.exe that runs in the background. It has to be running under the userID trying to update the iPod.
You can see what I mean if you go to Task Manager
(ctl-alt-del in case you don't know)
Click on the Process tab
Click on the imageName column to sort alphabetically
Make sure to check show processes from all users.
If iTunesHelper.exe is running under Kid1 account, then Kid2 account cannot update iPod.
It all goes back to iTunes not supporting fast user switching....prob more than you wanted to know!
Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported

Two user accounts after Migration from old Mac

Yesterday I bought a new iMac with OSX Lion. I used the Setup assistant to move my data from my old iMac (Leopard) using Firewire target disk mode.
When that was finished, I was suprised not to see any of my old stuff on my new Mac, so I started copying some stuff manually. It was only later that my penny dropped (Lion noobie here) and I realised I now have two user accounts: my new "Lion" account, and another one which - tada - does contain all my old stuff. Both appear to be admin accounts.
Since I already manually copied all the stuff I wanted to keep to my new account, can I safely delete the old account? How do I do this, and what happens with the old stuff? I read something about the home folder of the deleted user being moved somewhere. Where would that be?
Thanks!

It is easy to delete an account but you wisely used the word "safely". When I migrated to Lion I did an "in place" upgrade and no new adminstrative accounts were created.   Lion will create a guest acount but that can be easily disabled in the Users and Groups preference pane. Did you do an in place or a clean install of Lion?
First, before you delete anything be absolutely sure that the account you want to keep has everything you need. I suggest you work with it a least a week before making that judgement. There is no hurry if you have the space to keep two accounts. I have a spare adminstrative account just in case I need it for troubleshooting. Be sure you backed up your boot drive with a versioned (like Time Machine) and a cloned backup to an external drive.
Go to System Preferences and choose the Users and Groups preference pane. There you will find your accounts and their designations (i.e. adminstrator, guest, standard).   If you are completely satisfied that the admin account you backed up is all you need then you can click on the lock at the bottom left of that pane, enter your adminstrative password, choose the account you want to delete and click the minus button. Once you have done this, it is gone. All of the settings and data you had will be gone unless they were duplicated in another account. Your applications should remain.
That said, there is nothing wrong with having two adminstrator accounts. Some very security minded people suggest that you should not operate from your admin account because it allows access to deep levels in your computer.
