Grant Burn-CD access to user by sysadmin

I asked this earlier in a different way and still need an answer. Please bear with me.
When logged into my regular account on my macbook, an 'admin' account, I seem to be unable to insert a blank CD and have "Finer" come up. I believe this is to block my own account from burning to CD.
I logged in as overall sysadmin and when inserting CD, the Finder appears. I can burn to CD
I created a new account and gave it admin rights. In that account, I can insert a blank CD. I can burn files to that blank CD.
What could I have installed; or what could I have changed, which would remove my ability to have a blank CD start Finder in my regular admin sub-account?
It doesn't seem too easy to import every single thing that's personalized into my newly created account. There are gpg keychains and system keychains; iTunes music, mail accounts, and so on.
Would be a whole lot easier if I could simply find the setting that changed in the last couple of months regarding blank CD's. I hardly ever insert a blank CD and hadn't noticed the issue.

This really baffles me. I can login as root then create another account allowing admin priv's. Then login to that. Then insert a blank CD and I see the finder come up showing the blank CD.
I can switch to my regular account and I see what I am showing in this screenshot.

if that image-shack link shows up.
I ran Disk Util and all was fine for permissions and 'verify'/
I am not comfortable just deleting this account due to iTunes/GPG keys/iMap email accounts and a whole lot of other stuff that I do not believe would be easily switched over.... or trust me on this on, I'd switch it all immediately and get on with my life.
There must be a bit toggled somewhere that has disallowed me to burn or see blank CD's in this admin account. If I knew where to look, logged in as 'root', I could toggle it back ... alas ... kenno git anyone who will tell me.

  • Granting Read Only Access to user in another schema

    Oracle Database 10g
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3
    We are requested by a developer to grant his account read only access to TABLES, VIEWS, INDEXES, SEQUENCES, FUNCTIONS, PROCEDURES, PACKAGES, TRIGGERS, JOBS of another schema.
    I know granting read only access to Tables and Views. But is it possible to grant READ ONLY access to other mentioned objects ? How to do it ?
    And some views are in INVALID status.
    I tried to compile them using alter view owner.viewname compile;
    But got this ---- Warning: View altered with compilation errors.
    Those views are still in INVALID status. And then I tried to use utlrp.sql . Same result.
    Then I used the following
    SELECT TEXT FROM DBA_VIEWS WHERE VIEW_NAME='view-name';
    select REFERENCED_NAME,REFERENCED_TYPE from dba_dependencies where name='view-name';
    It turns out some reference types are non existent.
    Does that mean DBAs cannot do anything about this ?

    TABLES -> YES grant SELECT
    VIEWS -> YES grant SELECT
    SEQUENCE -> YES grant SELECT
    INDEXES -> There is no read access for indexes...indexes are put on tables and a user who has read access on tables can read the index as well.
    FUNCTIONS / PROCEDURES / PACKAGES -> I am not sure what you mean by read access on procedures, functions and packages. You may grant EXECUTE privilege on these.
    TRIGGERS -> there is no read access on triggers required. They are implemented on tables for a DML event. If the user has DML access he has the execute access on the trigger as well.
    JOBS -> I am not sure what to read from Jobs.
    And some views are in INVALID status.
    I tried to compile them using alter view owner.viewname compile;

    select REFERENCED_NAME,REFERENCED_TYPE from dba_dependencies where name='view-name';
    It turns out some reference types are non existent.
    Does that mean DBAs cannot do anything about this ?There are compilation errors in the Views. e.g. the view may be referring to a table which doesn't exist etc.
    Unless you fix the error in the view you can't compile it and male it valid. Fix the view errors. If objects are non existing create them or refer to view to some where else.
    If the nonexistent objects were mistakenly dropped, or the data file which contained those objects was dropped, no matter what was the reason for that object to be gone a DBA can bring it back if he is a well prepared DBA and has setup his database for such kind of disasters.
    Now tell us why those objects are non-existent ? were they meant to be gone ? or they were dropped mistakenly?
    Now here are my guesses:
    If they were meant to be gone then probably the views definitions need to be adjusted not to refer them anymore.
    If they were mistakenly dropped then:
    Do you have them in recyclebin? (only tables) if YES just FLASHBACK TABLE <<tablename>> AS BEFORE DROP.
    Is your database has Flashback database ON? if YES FLASHBACK DATABASE until 'time/scn just before the object was dropped'
    Do you have backups and your database is running in ARCHIVE LOG mode? if YES perform an incomplete recovery using RMAN.

  • Ssrs security access for users on a different domain

    Hi
    We are using ssrs 2008 r2 and have added a new domain to our network as we are working with another company.
    Our original domain was say "DomainA" which can access all our reports, how do we give access to the new domain "DomainB" access to our reports?
    We are unable to add DomainB users to our AD security groups so I have created a windows groups called SSRS_DomainB_Users and given them access to our parent folder and also added them into site settings as a system user.
    What is the best way to deal with this?
    Users in DomainB will eventually be added to DomainA and DomainB will then be deleted.
    One of the users I am testing with gets an error message :
    User 'Domain name/user' does not have the required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
    Thanks

    Hi Nasa1999,
    According to your description, you want your reports can be accessed by user from different domain. Right?
    In this scenario, we should do Internet Deployment for your reports so that users from different domain can access the reports. Please the articles below:

  • Best practice for select access to users

    Not sure if this is the correct forum to post, if not then let me know where should I post.
    From my understanding this is the best forum to ask this questions.
    Are you aware of any "Best Practice Document" to grant select accesses to users on databases. These users are developers which select data out of database for the investigation and application bug fix.
    From time to time user want more and more access to different tables so that they can do investigation properly.
    Let me know if there exists a best practice document around this space.

    >
    There are many best practices documents about various aspects of security for Oracle DBs but none are specific to developers doing invenstigation.
    Here is the main page for Oracles' OPAC white papers about security.
    http://www.oracletechnetwork-ap.com/topics/201207-Security/resources_whitepaper.cfm
    Take a look at the ones on 'Oracle Identity Management' and on 'Developers and Identity Services'.
    http://www.dbspecialists.com/files/presentations/implementing_oracle_11g_enterprise_user_security.pdf
    This paper by Database Specialists shows how to use Oracle Identity Management to limit access to users such as developers through the use of roles. It shows some examples of users using their own account but having limited privileges based on the role they are given.
    http://www.dbspecialists.com/files/presentations/implementing_oracle_11g_enterprise_user_security.pdf
    And this Oracle White Paper, 'Oracle Database Security Checklist', is a more basic security doc that discusses the entire range of security issues that should be considered for an Oracle Database.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/security/twp-security-checklist-database-1-132870.pdf
    You don't mention what environment (PROD/QA/TEST/DEV) you are even talking about or whether the access is to deal with emergency issues or general reproduction and fixing of bugs.
    Many sites create special READONLY roles, eg. READ_ONLY_APP1, and then grant privileges to those roles for tables/objects that application uses. Then that role can be granted to users that need privileges for that application and can be revoked when they no longer need it.
    Some sites prefer creating special READONLY users that have those read only roles. If a user needs access the DBA changes the password and provides the account info to the user. When the user has completed their duties the DBA resets the password to something no one else knows.
    Those special users have auditing on them and the user using them is responsible for all activity recorded in the logs during the time the user has access to that account.
    In general you grant the minimum privileges needed and revoke them when they are no longer needed; generally through the use of roles.
    >
    Asked in this forum as this is related to PL/SQL access.
    >
    Please explain that. Your question was about 'access to different tables'. How does PL/SQL access fit into that?
    The important reason for the difference is that access is easily controlled thru the use of roles but in named PL/SQL blocks roles are disabled. So those special roles and accounts mentioned above are well-suited to allowing developers to query data but are not well-suited if the user needs to execute PL/SQL code belonging to another schema (the app schema).

  • Unable to provision Business Rules access for users

    Hi all,
    Our analytic server is properly configured in Shared Services : we can correctly create users, provision Essbase access for those users, change password, etc...
    An application business rules is visible in the left pane of shared services, but we are not able to provision Business rules access for users.
    When we try to provision access for a user, we have only access to the Analytic properties.
    What's going wrong ?

    It sounds like the user you login to HSS with hasn't been assigned with "Provisioning Mgr" rights to business rules.
    Get the HSS admin user to grant you these rights and you should then be able to provision users to use Business RUles.

  • Delegate access to users to create and edit mail contacts in exchange server 2013

    Hi,
    Can I delegate access to users to create/edit/delete contacts in Exchange 2013, if yes, how?

    Hi,
    From your description, you want to grant users the permission to manage mail contacts. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    Based on my knowledge, you need to add these users to Organization Management Role group and Recipient Management Role group.
    For more information, here is a thread for your reference, please see the "Recipient Provisioning Permissions" section.

  • Letting users access other users home directories

    Hello,
    I am currently setting up an xserve at a school and I am running into some problems. I want to let the group teachers be able to access all of the students home directories. I added to the permissions the group teachers for the users folders, but the permissions do not carry through all subfolders. What would be the best way to set up these permissions in tiger server?
    Thanks
    Robert

    Hi
    When sharing a desired folder for automounting networked home directores the default POSIX values are:
    Owner: root/admin R/W (can be either)
    Group: admin Read Only
    Everyone Read Only
    Going beyond this folder and you can then view the default attributes for individual folders. These should be:
    Owner: the persons name Read & Write
    Group: admin Read Only
    Everyone: None
    This is as it should be and you should leave these alone. In the situation you describe it makes sense to grant Read/Write access for teachers so as students work can be marked and/or assessed. In which cae you want to preserve the POSIX permissions but use an additional permissions model that allows access withour breaking the default permissions.
    10.4 Server allows for this as Access Control Lists (ACLs) are available once you enable them for the volume that has the shared folder for automounting networked home folders on it. WorkGroup Manager > Sharing > General. Select the volume and tick the box that says 'Enable Access Control Lists on this volume'. When you have done this, restart the Server. Enabling/Disabling ACLs on any volume should always be followed by a restart.
    On successful log in launch WorkGroup Manager, select Sharing, select folder you are interested and and select Access. Below the Standard POSIX model there is a window. This window is where you add desired users or groups (or a mix of both) and define what access they have to the selected folder. At the bottom of this window is a small gear wheel. Selecting this will show a small sub-menu where you can propagate permissions as well as viewing effective permissions. I would suggest you create a year group, add desired teachers to that year group and then add this year group to each desired year folder. Define your permissions and propagate them. You should now have at the end of this the default POSIX permissions for individual student folders still in place and honoured as well as overriding permission for teachers.
    Hope this helps, Tony

  • Remote Access VPN Users with CX Active Authentication.

    I have ASA 5515 with CX for webfiltering , also have enabled remote access vpn . All my inside users are able to get active and passive authentication correctly . But for remote access VPN users , they are redirected to ASA external ip and CX authentication port 9000 but a blank page comes in and there is no prompt for authentication. I wasnt doing split tunneling , but now i have excluded ASA WAN ip from the tunnel and still have the same issue.
    The CX version we have is 9.3.1.1

    Have you excluded the VPN traffic from being NATed when traffic is going between clients?

  • I desperately need to access my User Library folder in Time Machine (Lion so = not visible).

    Hi. I installed Lion a few months ago and got a new external drive to back up Time Machine.
    Nobody told me the User Library would be made hidden in the new OS. I have been backing up regularly in the belief that all my work, settings and so on was safe.
    Yesterday my iMac (27" 2.8 Ghz Core it with 4 gib memory) suddenly went mad. Message saying finder had quit whilst trying to restore windows. Desktop was flashing, no icons clickable, no external disks readable. Could access some progs and terminal, but nothing else. Could not get into the history folder to trash various plists and so on as the folder is hidden and the alt Go wouldn't work. The Finder just wouldn't do anything.
    I have sorted it out BUT I have lost my address book entries, my browser booksmarks, my desktop shortcuts and my iCal entries. I need to access my User Library on my Time Machine. Is there a way?
    I cannot believe I have been religiously backing up my stuff but Apple has made it so I can't access my backup of one of the most important folders on my Time Machine???
    Is there anyway of getting into this from Terminal or something? I will never be able to get back all the bookmarks and stuff I've been researching for years. I have it backed up on two different hard drives, both of which have 'invisible' library folders. I have make the folder visible now, for future backups, but it's after the horse has bolted. I am furious, and just feel like bursting into tears because of all the time it's going to take me to get all my work back. I can't tell you how stupid this was, Apple.
    If someone could help I'd be really grateful. I've got older backups but they are so old they won't get back my recent stuff.
    Thanks.

    select Finder
    hole option key and select Go in the menu
    Select Library
    Enter Time Machine
    You should be seeing all the versions of you Library folder.

  • Database Studio 7.9.08.09 -  Could not access to user management; Deleting old settings and reinstallation did not bring a change -- database studio deinstallation cannot be performed anymore

    Hi Community,
    for a few months I have been struggling with a  SAP Max DB database Studio issue and finally, I had to give up the idea of being able to fix this on my own. I am desperately seeking for help and I hope that you may be able to give me a hint, advice or even a solution.
    This is what happened:
    I used to run Windows 7 on 32bit. I also had Database Studio installed - which was running fine then.
    After a harware upgrade, I am running now Windows 7 on a 64 bit System. All my files from my local disk (C:\) have been restored and copied onto my new system.
    I reinstalled Database Studio Version 7.9.08.09 onto my new System.  But on the first try to start the program I received the error that said "Could not Access to user Management.See Window -> Show View-> Event Log Viewer for more Details."
    However the Event Log Viewer was empty.
    After searching the web for a solution, I followed the advice given in this community and deinstalled Database Studio and deleted the C.\Users\MyAccount\sdb folder manually.
    I reinstalled Database Studio and started it as Administrator.
    However, the error is still appearing.
    And, what makes it even worse is : now I am not able to uninstall Database Studio anymore.
    When I run SAP MaxDB Installation Manager and select the instance of database Studio to be uninstallled I am receiving the error:
    "ERR: Unhandled Exception: Can't call method: "GenPackageList" on an undefined value at SDB/Install/Gui/Dialogs/SelectInstance.pm line 328"
    Any advice is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Agnieszka

    Hello Yashwanth,
    thank you for your quick Response.
    Yes, I downloaded and installed the 64 bit Version of dbstudio.
    I downloaded and ran the following .exe file: maxdb-studio-win-64bit-x86_64-7_9_08_09.exe
    I am running the following Java-Version:
    Java Plug-in 1.6.0_45
    Using JRE version 1.6.0_45-b06 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
    I myself am not a SAP customer. However, the Company I am working for is a SAP customer.
    Can you explain in Detail, how to create a ticket with SAP?
    Thanks,
    Agnieszka

  • Windows 7 Desktop synchronisation - Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop

    Hi there
    My client has a laptop which won’t load the desktop when disconnected from the network. When you log on (while disconnected) you get the error
    “Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop”
    Works as expected while connected to the network.
    The server is a Windows Small Business Server 2003 with active directory etc. and roaming profiles turned on. This issue does not occur on other workstations/laptops.
    When I check the Users folder on the local system drive there is not a desktop folder. I assume this is the issue although I’m not sure how you would force windows to create one or why one hasn’t been created?
    This is a brand new laptop so my initial reaction was to reset the laptop to factory state and then add the laptop back in to the domain. After this process the issue was still present!
    I guess the only thing I should mention is that this was shipped as a Home Premium laptop and was then upgraded to Professional using an upgrade key.
    I have checked Control Panel, System & Security, System, Advanced, User Profiles and the account shows as Local with Roaming Profiles greyed out.
    Any ideas?
