Does anyone integrate siteminder with iPlanet Portal Server

I am trying to integrate iPlanet and Siteminder using the secure access pack. Has anyone successfully integrated the two?

yes,
we did basic integration where the authentication will be done using siteminder. The trick is to protect the portal server web server and not the gateway. You also need to add a new authentication module for siteminder in the portal using ipsadmin. We are protecting the login html page only. We couldn't protect the desktop because it's built using servlets.

POP3 support with iPlanet portal server

Greetings,
We are looking to use a web client (NetMail lite) or thin client (NetMail
lite applet) with iPlanet Portal Server 6.0 sp3 out-of-the-box that will
support POP3. It appears that NetMail lite used to support POP3, but it
appears to only support IMAP now? Is this true?
We are not using iPlanet Messenger Server, we are integrating with existing
POP3 servers. Has anyone found an iPlanet client for this or used a third
party tool for this?

through the netlet, to access your pop3 server.

Is there any documentation on integrating iDSAME with iPlanet Portal Server?

There is no official documentation. The full fleged integration with IDSAME would happen in the next release of portal.
The current integration is more of a proof of concept and is only for authentication and this has not been made public or neither is it supported.

I want to write a java program that can add a user to a role or sub role to the Profile Database in iPlanet Portal Server 3.0. Does anyone has any idea or a sample program do such thing. Thanks, Tommy

// create the user profile, get the handle back,

ProfileAdmin newProfile = null;
try {
// the users profile name is the domain
// he belongs to plus their userName
// you will request.domain if your doing this from a servlet, domain_name is the domain_name the user belongs too
String profileName = domain_name + "/" + user;
     if (debug.messageEnabled()) {
debug.message("creating profile for " + profileName);
// create the user profile object
newProfile = ProfileManager.createProfile(
getSession(), profileName ,Profile.USER);
UserProfile userProfile = (UserProfile)newProfile;
     // set the role the user is a member of. Default is to set
     // the users to the default role of the domain they surfed to
     StringBuffer roleName = new StringBuffer(64);
// request.domain instead of domain_name if your doing this from a servlet ..
Profile dp = getDomainProfile(domain_name);
roleName.append(dp.getAttributeString("iwtAuth-defaultRole"));
     if (debug.messageEnabled()) {
debug.message("setting role for " + user + " = " + roleName);

Does the iplanet Portal server support other existing standalone Webservers/application Servers the likes of weblogic, websphere etc?

If so, will the session management aspect be looked after by the iPlanet Portal server?

The new version of Portal (6.0 I believe) will run on weblogic or websphere as well as iAS.

NetGenesis and iPlanet portal server

Hi Group,
Has anyone used NetGenesis (I believe NetAnalysis is the actual name of the
product) to track web traffic data? Have you used it for an iPlanet portal
server web site? Can you track a portal site the same way as you would
track a regular website?
Thanks in advance.

I think the servlet container in Portal is meant to be "black boxed" - ie
you shouldn't use it to run anything except Portal.
So stick with your tomcat, and you can integrate it using the normal
Portal APIs and Provider API.

Is there a similar location for iPlanet Portal Server 3.0? I have been

Thanks for the assistance

How do I restrict access by domain and the rest of the world to the documents in the public_html folder in iPlanet Portal Server?

Hello,
We have multiple domains configured in our iPlanet Portal Server 3 demo environment. In addition we are using the gateway.
In one of these domains the userTemplate.html file is tailored to display Macromedia Flash components at dynamic positions on the page. The logical home for these Flash components (since the portal software cannot find them if we simply store them in iwtDesktop) is somewhere below the /opt/SUNWips/public_html directory.
The problem is that once the file is stored here I can access it if I know the url (http://server:8080/file_path) without being authenticated in the domain.
The allow/deny url policy settings are specific to a domain and seem to have no affect on the rest of the world.
Any advice you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Joel,
If your intent is to block access to the doc root, you can probably use access control lists (acl) to prevent anyone from accessing the files stored under public_html. You can get more information about how to create ACLs from the following URL
http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/41/ag/esaccess.htm#1005439
You can even set up Basic Authentication for access to the direcory or ip based access or any which way you want. I've personally never blocked access to the doc root in portal, so I am not sure what the impact will be.
Hope this helps!

Photoshop cs6 won't allow me to highlight my existing text layers. Does anyone have experience with this problem?

Photoshop cs6 won't allow me to highlight my existing text layers. I select the text tool and the text layer I want to edit, hover over text and each time I attempto to edit a new layer is created. Does anyone have experience with this problem?

Be sure you go to Adobe's Web Site and make sure there are no Updates for CS6
http://www.adobe.com
Remember if you have trouble with a software issue it is the software and not caused by the Mac you are using
Many users simply don't remember when you upgrade software you normally have to go to 3rd party web sites and update software as well.

Does anyone have experience with unzipping a password-encrypted ZipFile??

Does anyone have experience with unzipping a password-encrypted ZipFile??
My Zip Class works fine with every unencrypted file, but when I try to open an encrypted one, i get an error Message ("Encrypted ZIP entry not supported")
Is ist impossible to unzip encrypted ZIPs???

I've searched around a little bit and THIS IS THE SOLUTION!
There is a (beta)version of winzip8 that uses a cli (command line interface)
So, all you have to do is to implement a Runtime.getRuntime().exec(...) in your java program to call winzip8 and pass the zipfile path and the password.
Here's the URL: http://www.winzip.com/wzcline.htm

Does anyone have experience with Virgin or Boost Mobile?

I have been with verizon for a long time...I have 4 lines with this service. I have since bought several phones off of craigslist or ebay just so I wouldn't have to be subjected to the tier plan. We use so much data it's crazy. I want the new Samsung Galaxy S4 so bad!!! Grrr! I've even thought about switching to Virgin Mobile or Boost Mobile. We pay so much for our phones now and I know of one guy who has boost mobile and loves it. Does anyone have experience with these providers?

BC's CRM is part of the package, Salesforce is of course more dedicated. That pretty much sum's up these sorts of use cases.

Does anyone have experience with using a Canon Vixia HF M52 Camcorder with Final Cut Express?

I'm looking to purchase a new camcorder that is compatible with my Mac OS X (10.6.8) that will work well with Final Cut Express 4.0.1 I have downloaded the camcorder support info from Final Cut Express that list many capital camcorders. I've used Sony tape based camcorders in the past. I'm looking for High Definition. I can stick with a tape based camcorder, but thought I would look at the Canon Vixia HF M52 as an alternative, which is listed as compatible. I would like to download directly from the camera to FCE. I film in the wilderness, like having an optical zoom of 20 or greater (yes, I use a small tripod). Does anyone have experience with the Canon Vixia? And if not, but you really like another camcorder that you can recommend, what is it?

The Vixia HF M52 is an AVCHD camcorder and should work perfectly fine with Final Cut Express 4 (4.0.1).
The published "camcorder support list" has never been up to date and I would not take it to be a definitive list of compatible camcorders.
One note, however, the Vixia HF M52 supports a number of different shooting modes. I suggest sticking with the AVCHD 1920 x 1080i / 60 fps mode for use with FCE. FCE does not support progressive modes except in 720p25/30 (which the M52 does not seem to shoot anyway); nor does FCE support any 24 fps modes.

Does anyone have problems with iTunes movie rentals freezing in the middle of the movie?

Does anyone have problems with iTunes movie rentals freezing in the middle of the movie, requiring a force quit, which causes your rental to disappear? This has happened multiple times to me recently. Last time Apple didn't refund my money after reporting the problem. I have been using iTunes for many years but am about to give up.

Correction: I was refunded for the previous movie freeze.
