Files encrypted and digital signed with cFolders

Dear all,
Currently I'm involved on a PPS project with cFolders. This project has legal requirements that consist in implementing encryption and digital signature in files which will be uploaded to cFolders. I've been searching on SAP Help, SDN and Service Marketplace about APIs to work with cFolders with encryption and digital signatures, but I didn't find related documents. It seems there is no documentation regarding such scenarios...
Anyone has experience in cFolders with files encrypted and digital signed?
Thanks in advance & regards,
Ricardo.

Hi Federico
If I understood your solution you are signing your documents in a Webservice provided from a CA. For that youu2019ve created an RFC dest type G over ssl (https) and used the class CL_HTTP_CLIENT. So your requirement is only to sign documents, right?
Well my scenario seems a little bit different as Iu2019ve to encrypt the file and also sign it. The signature is done on useru2019s laptop trough a smartcard (hardware device connected via USB that reads the chip the certificate assigned to our identity card) and cannot be signed from other entity than the user itself.
Did you explore the PGP alternative? cFolders supports this kind of files (*.pgp). The PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is a popular program used to encrypt and decrypt files, e-mails, etc.
Today I installed a trial version of a PGP tool. I tested the encryption/signature with files on my desktop and it works fine. I tested a Public Key scenario where the owner publishes his PK in cFolders and the requester gets this PK in cFolders as well. The requester now can encrypt documents and upload them to cFolders with the public key provided by the owner; the owner itself has the private key to open the encrypted file (extension .pgp) after upload. But over the encrypted file the requester must sign it with his private key (another certificate) provided by a CA and here starts the second challenge...
In cFolders after the file upload the system should gets the requester digital signature and sends it to CA for validation, only after that we know if the requester is a trusted partner or not. To do this we are thinking to use a Webservice provided by the CA, however I don't know how to extract/get the signature in the file encrypted/signed from PGP and uploaded to cFolders.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks & regards,
Ricardo.

Outlook Pro 2013 Crashes On Send After Checking ENCRYPTION and DIGITAL SIGNING

I bought and imported a Digital ID today. After doing so I went in and checked the boxes in TRUST CENTER to allow for ENCRYPTION and DIGITAL SIGNING. After doing so, every time I hit SEND on my emails, it sits, spins, sits, and never recovers. The application
hang error is below. Please note that the SOFTWARE PROTECTION SERVICE seems to stop working in EVENT VIEWER as well before each app hang.
If I go in, UNCHECK those security settings, and reopen OUTLOOK, all is well.

Mail missing Encrypt and Digitally Sign buttons

I don't have the option of encrypting or digitally signing any e-mails I compose in Mail. I have a valid security certificate in my Keychain Access, as well as valid certificates for my contacts. I can't find an option to show/add the encrypt and digitally sign buttons either.
When composing a new message, the drop down box next to the subject line only gives the following options:
CC field
BCC field
Reply-to address field
Priority field
Customize...
I know where these two buttons should be and what they look like, but they're just not there. Any ideas or suggestions?

I finally have a solution to this problem. I had been trying to use a .cer security certificate issued by Comodo, it had worked just fine on Windows but my Mac didn't seem to like it. I also tried creating my own certificate through OSX, but even after I created it I still couldn't see the buttons.
I had someone direct me to this webpage which ultimately helped me fix the problem:
http://allforces.com/2007/03/02/email-security/
I ended up using Thawte to issue me another security certificate (this time it was an x.509 file), the security certificate automatically opened in Keychain Access and downloaded to the Certificates and My Certificates folder. Once I shutdown Mail and restarted it I had the buttons for both encryption and digitally signed. Of course the encryption button is still greyed out because it is a new certificate and I need to make sure my Address Book contacts have a copy of it before I can encrypt.

How to find PG.xml file name and path associated with a FUNCTION

Hi,
I am having a function:IRC_VIS_HOME_PAGE with Web HTML value as below:
OA.jsp?akRegionCode=IRC_VIS_HOME_PAGE&akRegionApplicationId=800&OAPB=IRC_BRAND
How to find PG.xml file name and path assoicated with above funtion.
Thanks,
ashok

Ashok,
Function IRC_VIS_HOME_PAGE will have 2 parameter defined for it which are OASF and OAHP where
OASF=<SelectedFunctionName> - this tells the Framework to select this function in the given "Home Page" menu context.
OAHP=<HomePageMenuName> - this is used ONLY with the OASF parameter, and it is used to establish the current menu context. It should point to a "Home Page" menu.

Encryption and Digital signature in SAP

Hi,
We have a requirement to encrypt the payment data before it is sent to a Bank using SAP XI.We are planning to have a ABAP proxy which will do the encryption and hopefully attach a digital signature.We are working in SAPR/3 Enterprise edition.Does SAP supports doing Encryption and digital signature in ABAP.
Thanks,

Monitoring OpenVMS and Digital Unix with SunMC

Hi there,
Does anybody know of a way to monitor operating systems like OpenVMS and Digital Unix with SunMC?
I'm not really interested in a lot of fancy stuff, just the basics like cpuload, memory, filesystems and checks on logfiles.
Many thanks for your response!
Emerald

Hi Emerald,
Does anybody know of a way to monitor operating
systems like OpenVMS and Digital Unix with SunMC?For the DEC box if you're referring to what's now known as HP's Tru64 you can get SunMC-like functionality from a Neuron Agent:
http://www.halcyoninc.com/products/NeuronAgent/index.php
Neuron uses the same basic tech under the hood but has been adapted to run standalone with it's own built-in web interface.

How do I digitally sign with reader XI when the fill and sign functions are grayed out?

I am using Adobe Reader XI. I am suppose to digitally sign a fillable .pdf document for online submission. However, the fill and sign functions are grayed out.
What are my options to put a signature in the signature box of the document?
Thank you in advance!

Pat Willener,
Thank you for replying.
Here is an image capture of the properties.
The document is part of a job application that is suppose to be digitally signed and submitted soon. I have thought about printing, signing, and redigitizing to submit, however, the cells are statically sized and do not expand to include all of the information when printed.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Can I open reader and digitally sign pdf in flash?

First off let me say, I have 0 experience with Adobe Flash or Adobe Air, so this may be a dumb question or I may not even be asking in the right place. I currently have an application which uses Adobe Reader to digitally sign PDF files. The PDFs are displayed inline within a webpage. The user must use Adobe Reader because it needs to be FIPS 140 certified. The issue we are running into is with browsers like Chrome and Firefox bunding their own PDF reader, it brakes our application. I am looking for a way to force users to use Adobe Reader. From reading on the web, it looks like this isn't really possible and we are at the mercy of the PDF plugin the user has installed. The idea I thought of, though, would be to write an Adobe Flash application which would display the PDF. I am hoping doing it this way, I could force the use of Adobe Reader and not the PDF plugin of the browser. Does anyone know if this will work? And if it does, will I have all functions of Adobe Reader available (specifically digitally signing)?

for a web based app, you can't easily display a pdf in flash. even for an air app (or any other platform), you can't force anyone to use adobe reader (especially, because not everyone has adobe reader).

GPO For Outlook Certificates Used For Encryption and Digital Signatures?

How can we configure a group policy to distribute certificates to Outlook 2010 users so they can digitally sign and encrypt messages without requiring much effort on their end?
The users will become confused and make mistakes if we ask them to follow instructions on how to download and import certificates into Outlook 2010 manually. Can we automate this with Group Policy?

Would a certificate "autoenrollment" GPO work for these types of certificates?
Yes. Here's a good guide. The user will still need to choose to sign, or encrypt, unless you want to enforce that in some way. If you are sending signed or encrypted email outside of your AD, you will need to solve how the recipients will get your root cert,
etc.

Digitally signing with Acrobat 7.10 Pro

Is there a way to digitally sign several/many pdf's?
E.a. bulk wise.
With the Batch tool, javascript or something else.

Hi,
Yes, you could use the Batch tool to digitally sign all of the files in an input folder. Because there is not build-in signature functionality in the Batch feature, you would have to create a JavaScript (which is included in the Batch feature) to find and sign the signature field. My recomendation would be to save the signed file to a separate output folder.

Outlook 2010 "forgets" Encryption and Digital Signature preferences

We have several users in our enterprise environment who's Encryption and Signature preferences are not being retained in Outlook. They, seemingly randomly, lose the selected Sign and Encrypt all mail options throughout the day. We are using smart card certificates,
Outlook 2010 and Exchange 2010...
Has anyone seen this or do you have suggestions on what to look at?

Hi,
How did you use the smart card in your environment? Did you use a reader that is attached to your computer or it is inserted to the USB interface of your computer?
Does those users who have the problem use the smart card in a different behavior comparing to those don’t have the problem?
We should keep the smart card inserted when you want to digitally sign or encrypt your messages. When the smart card is removed, the certificate is no longer available.
If I’ve misunderstood something, please feel free to let me know.

File Locks and SMB shares with ML

I've been doing a lot of research on SMB and the way it locks files during access. I've made a lot of ground work in my research but could use a little further assistance from this support community.
The symptom is simple to explain: Users are occasionally being prompt for a username and password when attempting to rename or move files and folders.
After doing some research on this topic, I have discovered that there is a direct relationship to files being open on the server at the time the user is attempting to rename or move the folder. The following thread, albiet old, appears to have nailed the problem on the head http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?p=24558131. In particular, there appears to be file locking happening when preview is turned on through the finder. I've had all users remove preview from their Macs and this appears to have helped reduce the occurances of the password prompt, but has not completly solved the problem. This is also a work around, not a fix.
I've been using a series of command to help me trace the problem including openfile.exe on the Windows 2012 Storage Server (sharing the files via smb only) to discover who has what files open on the server, and the lsof command on the client workstations to discover what process has the file open. So far, the finder is consistently the only thing with the file open... even with the finder preview turned off. I've also found that the "open file" is simply the fact that the offending users Mac has a finder window with just the folder open (none of the files within the folder or previews open).
Is the real solution to simply close all finder windows when you're done working in a folder, or is there more that anyone can think of to help me find out exactly what is holding the file lock? Is this a known bug in the SMB implementation of ML? Can we expect to see a fix with Mavericks which will now be using SMB2.0?
Any help or information anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I have a bunch of documentation on this issue and would be happy to share. Please let me know if anyone needs any additional details.

Hello all - many apologies for my delay in posting here; and Squiggle, thanks for the second-hand nudge. As Stephen said we have been testing a solution concerning a setting in Finder's view options for the last few months, and these seem to have solved the issue in hand.
Essentially, we found that Finder was holding files open whenever the 'Show Icon Preview' option was set, on any of the four folder views, on any client machine accessing the share. Below is a piece of documentation I wrote up for our Service desk explaining how to diagnose and manually fix this issue on the client:
        - In Finder, open any folder
        - Click on the cog icon and select 'show view options.' Check that, in the dialogue box which appears, the 'Show icon preview' box is not checked. Click the other three Finder views and check it's turned off here too.
        - Click 'Use as Defaults'
In order to make this change remotely on multiple machines, you will need to change the clients' com.apple.plist files, and set every instance of the <showIconPreview> key to <False>. This is nested within several key / dictionary pairs in com.apple.finder.plist, once under <standardViewOptions> and thrice within <standardViewSettings>. As Stephen has already mentioned, the fact that this key is nestled deep within compound dictionaries seems to render them untouchable by defaults, though I would be very happy to be corrected on this.
How you push this change out will depend on your management system. We had been using Casper to
to create a managed preference pertaining to <standardViewOptions> and <standardViewSettings> within com.apple.finder.plist. These contained as values the entire dictionary associated with these keys, with the value for each <showIconPreview> set to false. This was then applied at a User Enforced Level (running every logon after Finder has set up the system defaults).
As a side note, I have found that certain machines (Such as the 10.8.3 machine I'm working on now) contain a key named <FK_StandardViewSettings>, which I have been unable to ascertain the purpose or origination of. These don't seem to affect the fix, so we've left them alone.
Irritatingly, Casper has dropped support for custom Managed Preferences in their latest release, so this problem has now resurfaced. I will keep this page updated with any fixes or workarounds I find.
Hope that helps,
Josh Smith

Combining Digital OUT and Digital IN with DAQmx on E-Series

Hi,
I'm trying to combine Digital IN and OUT-function with the DAQmx-driver. I have set the first four channels of my E-Series to IN and the other four to OUT. How can I programm this? I encounter problems when changing an OUT-channel.
Earlier I did that with the traditional DAQ driver by setting the port to 240 (first four In, second four OUT)
Thanks for any help

Hi,
The easy way i know, is by configure Global Channels at the NI-Max and then use the Linked VI i send.I know it's a elementary VI, but u can continue from this point.
Hope it helps ....

Highlight File Format and PDF Documents with Chinese and English characters

I'm a developer working on an application that makes use of the Highlight File Format / external highlight server capabilities of Adobe Reader.
The highlighting worked correctly until we started to introduce pdf documents that were scanned to recognize Chinese in addition to English.
The xml file seems to have the correct values in it. For example, if the 10 characters to highlight are at position 41 on the first page. The "xml" file has the <loc pg=0 pos=41 len=10>.
If the document is scanned for English only, it works fine. That is, the highlight starts at character 41. If the same document is scanned for Chinese and English, the highlight starts at character 22.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Do you know a solution?

Hi,
I don't know about BIP and the specifics of your context, but here are some general answers for the XLIFF format:
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'utf-8'?>
Can we change encoding to 'ISO-8859-1' as soon as we convert the file format ?If you also save the file to ISO-8859-1 as well yes. But you can do this only for languages supported by Latin-1. It makes sense to keep the files in UTF-8.
A-2) he section <header><skl><internal-file> contains a huge string
which seeem to be binary ... What is this ? can we delete it ?That's likely to be the skeleton file. The data used to rebuild the original format after translation.
Most likely it should stay there.
A-3) Can we have one XLF file with muliple <file> sections (one per language to translate to ) ?
This can be very useful for us to manage one only translation file per report template.Yes but no: yves you can have several <file> elements in an XLIFF document, but no: they must be for the same language pair. XLIFF is designed to work with bi-lingual files, not multi-lingual files.
A-4) the most important section for translation is included in the <trans-unit> tag .
Each one has a distinct id like ""49e41f8f" ... Can we replace this by a more meaningfull value ?Those id attributes are used by the filter to merge back the data after translation. You should preserve them.
A-5) the language format is like "en-US" (language code + territory code).
Is it case sensitive ? No it is not case-sensitive (en-us == en-US). The values of xml:lang are not case sensitive (unlike other XML attribute values).
en-US is just the recommended notation.
The XLIFF specification are here:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xliff/xliff-core/xliff-core.html
Hope this helps,

Commenting and Digitally Sign

Dear Adobe Acrobat Team, I am adding an annotation and a digital signature to a pdf document through my being-developed application, however when open that pdf with adobe acrobat, it validates the signature, and reports that "Annotations Modified" under the validated signature in the signatures panel, so why do acrobat behaves that way?

Yes lrosenth, that's true, but even with document that has the comment in in an update table ( in an incremental update section ) before
the the incremental update of the digital signature, the same probelm appears?
Can you please have a look at an example of such document at:
