Help with extending schema for redhat ldap sudo integration.
Hi all,
I've done LDAP administration for a few years, but I'm new to Directory server and I'm a bit stuck. I want to apply a custom schema and allow sudoers in our CentOs (Redhat) Linux servers. They're authenticating correctly, but I can't get sudoers to work. I've followed this documentation to update my schema.
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-2057
I'm having issues with the step that creates the SUDOers group as the following.
dn: ou=SUDOers,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: SUDOers
I want to make administration easy via the Workgroup manager so I don't have to manually add users to this group via ldif files. When I create a sudoers group via the workgroup manager, I get this dn
cn=sudoers,cn=groups,dc=spidertracks,dc=local
As you can see, it's a cn, not an ou. Furthermore, how do I get the defaults in the sudoer's group so that redhat recognizes the setup, but users can be assigned via the workgroup manager?
Thanks,
Todd
Anyways , I've created an LDIF for Active Directory with theses attributes and class objects.
Don't really know if this is needed inside AD or not.
If anyone wants these LDIFs for some reason, drop me a line. Keep in mind that they are a work in progress, so, if you find anything you dont like and would like to change it, please do let me know so I can update my versions aswell.
If anyone got any idea regarding the last questions I posted, please do let me know aswell

Help with starting point for "proof of concept" integration
We are a third party application provider and are attempting to figure out how to do a "proof of concept" integration with SAP. We are not looking for "certification". Our product does not appear to fit any of the standard certifications for integration and our experience integrating with other systems indicates that no two integration will be identical.
We are looking to do a simple integration scenario with an SAP system so we have some basic experience doing it, can say 'Yes" when asked if we have done it, and can create a video showing a transaction being done in SAP and our system also updating (and ideally the reverse).
Our starting point with respect to SAP knowledge is "0".
Our basic task list (we think) goes something like
1. Figure out the version and modules of SAP with which we should be integrating
2. Get access to an SAP system (do we rent, is there a developer/evaluation, ...)
3. Put some data in the test system (is there a "sample data" set?)
4. Figure out the SAP transactions that map to the business process in which we are interested (moving goods in and out of a distribution center/ware house - are there some "standard business process guides")
5. Integrate (we are a .NET web based application so we are guessing this means use the ".Net Connector")
Could anyone point out any resources (white papers, links, people, places to find people,...) that might be a good starting point?
Thanks,
JohnAthol,
We are looking to recieve notifications out of SAP as tractor trailers at a dock are filled as proof on concept. The actual integration scenarios we do are more complex and do not match well with any of the pre-packaged certification scenarios. The real world integration scenarios actual vary substantially from customer to customer in terms of the integration points between systems.
As we have become more marginally knowledgable about SAP, I think we will end up receiving and sending "IDOC" messages from SAP but have no idea what those IDOC messages are or where to start looking for what a "standard" (if there is one) message SAP would generate in reaction to whatever the "trailer is loaded" transaction is.
To figure out what the transaction is, I assume we need to identify what version of SAP we should be targeting for a simple integration. Are there any could references on what the commonly integration methods are and to which versions they apply?
Something like "hey, if you do an integration with a IDOCs in with SAP Netweaver 2004 then that would good proof you could integrate with 90% of the installed SAP base". Of course, any links explaining what the versions of SAP are and where they are in there lifecycle and what people are actually using would be helpful.

Help with Simple Applescript for Midipipe
Hey all, I'm in desperate need of help with some Applescript for use in a program called Midipipe:
http://web.mac.com/nicowald/SubtleSoft/MidiPipe.html
I simply require an Applescript for Midipipe that filters out all OFF notes except for the most recently pressed key, or most recently pressed ON note. So for example, when multiple keys have been pressed, only the most recently pressed key will send an OFF note. I hope that is clear enough, i've had some major issues trying to get this work and my last hope is to hit the forums and find some help .. I've posted on some of the audio forums and i'm hoping someone here knows how to code this.
Thanks so much!! .. Its for an upcomming show next week so i'm hoping someone can get me in the right direction to solving this.
-JesI try to help, but you'll need to apply your brain cells to get it working with what I've already explained (three times with what I offer below). Try something like the following (I am renaming your buttons to ch1,ch2,ch3,ch4,ch5,ch6 so that the same functions can be shared by all buttons...
// this assigns listeners to all 6 buttons
for(var i:uint=1; i<7; i++){
this["ch"+String(i)].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToSeekToCuePoint);
// this processes any one of the 6 btns when they are clicked
function fl_ClickToSeekToCuePoint_1(event:MouseEvent):void
var btn = event.currentTarget;
var cuePointInstance:Object = vid.findCuePoint(btn.name);
vid.seek(cuePointInstance.time);
resetButtons(); // this makes all buttons go back to normal
btn.upState = btn.overState; // this makes the clicked button change states
function resetButtons():void {
for(var i:uint=1; i<7; i++){
this["ch"+String(i)].upState = this["ch"+String(i)].hitTestState;
For this to work, your buttons need to have the same artwork in the hit frame as they do in the up frame. -

For example, if I had no idea how to test whether a file exists, I would just scan the big list of classes on the left for names that sound like they might include File operations. Hey look, File! Then I'd look at all of File's methods for something that tests whether it exists or not. Hey, exists!

I need some help with acls for a vacl. Goal - have the 1.1.1.0/24 subnet only communicate with certain IP.
So, they cannot get out to anywhere else and no one except that IP can get in.
Here is what I have so far:
access-list acl1 permit tcp 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 host 1.2.3.4
access-list acl1 permit tcp host 1.2.3.4 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0
access-list acl1 ip 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 any log
access-list acl1 ip deny any any log
vlan access-map vacl1 1
match ip address set acl1
action forward
exit
vlan filter vacl1 vlan-list 11
Will this work as I expect it to?
Thanks for any helpHi,
I implemented this on my 6509 and it didn't work. I even modified it to look like the following and it didn't work (I could RDP to one of the boxes on that the subnet).

Help with system upgrade for CS6
Hello. I am hoping you can give me some advice on what to do (or buy) to improve my video editing system. I am a bit of novice when it comes to the technical/hardware end of things and I’m having some issues with my current system.
I working in Adobe CS6 Master Suite on a Windows 7 Ultimate PC. I mainly use Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and Audition. I create very complete animations and videos with many layers and effects (via Boris & Red Giant). I also use Skype to record group video calls (with the program Evaer) for a reality T.V. recap show which I also edit with my Adobe suite. However I have two main problems.
When I render out a 20 minute premier pro project (with several HD video layers and effects) it takes almost 13 hours. It seems like this is very long considering my high end components, and set up. For example I run ONLY my OS off an SSD. My programs are on another SSD. The files I use for the video are on another HDD, and I render to another HDD. I was told by keeping all the aspects on separate hard drives it would speed everything up. Is that true? I also am now reading that rendering to a SSD would speed things up. Should I consider changing my workflow/hard drive set up that way?
My other problem is that when I record my Skype group calls of 4 people (with Evaer) to my SSD the audio is always off when I bring it into Premiere. I don’t know if this is a problem with Evaer, a codec (it records it as H.264/MPEG-4 AVC Codec. At 1280 X 720 and 30fps), that SSDs auto compress files, or that my system just cant handle it. Plus Soundblaster & Nvida both seem to active as audio features on my system I don’t know if that effects anything. Is there any advice any of you have on this issue as well? Perhaps another program to record skype or group calls?
Finally… all that aside. Considering the work I am doing should I just upgrade my system to a better Mobo and graphics card. I see a lot of people are recommending a dual processor work station. If so what is a good motherboard, and processor(s) I should get if I build my own workstation? I have about $4000.00 I could invest in building one if you think would greatly improve my work flow and render times. I also have a quadro k5000 on the way, and id like to be able to use the memory I have already.
I realize I am asking a lot of questions. I would truly appreciate any help, advice or just a point in the right direction. I have included my current system specs below incase that helps with any of my questions. If you have any other questions or need more information just let me know. Thank you again in advance for any help you can provide.

I would hardly call the Quadro card an upgrade to a GTX 680!
Regarding getting more speed from a faster MB / CPU, since you already have a 6-core rig with 24GB of RAM I would think that any gains you would get would not be that dramatic.
Check out your cpu usage (Task manager) and see how busy your cores are during a test render. I am guessing that the Boris and / or Red Giant effects could be jumping your projects from gaining the full multi-core capabilities of the Adobe software.

Please help with RMAN dup for RAC db
Happy Holidays!! All,
I need help with the following issue:
Both target and auxiliary databases are:
Database version is 10.2.0.3 with 2-node RAC db
Servers are MS 2003
Oracle Clusterware 10.2.0.3
Oracle ASM for storage
I have run the rman dup from RAC to a single instance db for a while. This is the first time I ran from RAC to RAC. This auxiliary db was refreshed before and was up for a while and was managed by server control tool. Now I am trying to refresh it with new backup files from production. I did the following as people suggested:
1) shutdown instance in the second node.
2) Startup nomount mode in the first node
3) Run RMAN dup
It failed in the same place with slightly different errors. I pasted error messages at the bottom. I already created a TAR with Oracle but would like to know if anybody has any info related to this. Also I have several questions to ask:
1) Should I stop all services related to Oracle in node-2
2) Should I stop all clustware related services in node-1 except oracleCSServie since ASM uses it?
3) Is there any way I can finish the dup manually from the place I failed? What going to happen if I don’t finish the rest of the dup and go ahead with “alter database open resetlogs”?
4) How do I remove the database from under Server control – I already run “srvctl remove database -d atlrac” successfully. Is this all?
Thanks a lot for your help and have a great holiday season!!!
First time run:

shutdown clone;
startup clone nomount ;

Shirley1) Should I stop all services related to Oracle in node-2
No, you just need to stop the second instance.
2) Should I stop all clustware related services in node-1 except oracleCSServie since ASM uses it?
No, you don't need to stop anything. Just have the instance startup nomount.
3) Is there any way I can finish the dup manually from the place I failed? What going to happen if I don’t finish the rest of the dup and go ahead with “alter database open resetlogs”?
You have not shown enough information. Did the restore succeed ? Did the recover succeed ? What was it doing when it failed ?
4) How do I remove the database from under Server control – I already run “srvctl remove database -d atlrac” successfully. Is this all?
Yes, srvctl remove database is all you need. (unless you also want to remove from listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, oratab etc) -
Need help with calculator project for an assignment...
Hi all, I please need help with my calculator project that I have to do for an assignment.
Here is the project's specifications that I need to do"
"""Create a console calculator applicaion that:
* Takes one command line argument: your name and surname. When the
program starts, display the date and time with a welcome message for the
user.
* Display all the available options to the user. Your calculator must include
the arithmetic operations as well as at least five scientific operations of the
Math class.
-Your program must also have the ability to round a number and
truncate it.
-When you multiply by 2, you should not use the '*' operator to perform the
operation.
-Your program must also be able to reverse the sign of a number.
* Include sufficient error checking in your program to ensure that the user
only enters valid input. Make use of the String; Character, and other
wrapper classes to help you.
* Your program must be able to do conversions between decimal, octal and
hex numbers.
* Make use of a menu. You should give the user the option to end the
program when entering a certain option.
* When the program exits, display a message for the user, stating the
current time, and calculate and display how long the user used your
program.
* Make use of helper classes where possible.
* Use the SDK to run your program."""
When the program starts, it asks the user for his/her name and surname. I got the program to ask the user again and again for his/her name and surname
when he/she doesn't insert anything or just press 'enter', but if the user enters a number for the name and surname part, the program continues.

Now my question is this: How can I restrict the user to only enter 'letters' (and spaces of course) but allow NO numbers for his/her surname??You cannot restrict the user. It is a sad fact in programming that the worst bug always sits in front of the Computer.
What you could do is checking the input string for numbers. If it contains numbers, just reprompt for the Name.
AND you might want to ask yourself why the heck a calculator needs to know the users Name. -
BIZTALK bts action mapping problem with Message Schemas for the Composite Operation
Hi,
I have a message schema made with the composite operation.
now, I have re-deployed my biztalk project and in the send port for this Oracle composite message the SOAP action header hasn't updated the correct action.
now I tried several verations for this soap action mapping and this is what I got:
><BtsActionMapping xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" >xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
> <Operation Name="Select" Action="http://Microsoft.LobServices.OracleDB/2007/03/CompositeOperation" />
> <Operation Name="SQLEXECUTE" Action="http://Microsoft.LobServices.OracleDB/2007/03/CompositeOperation" />
> </BtsActionMapping>
Now as you can see the Composite schema has 2 operations one is from an Oracle VIEW and the second one is an Oracle SQL querry.
please if someone could assist me with this issue?
Message Schemas for the Composite Operation
Message Schemas for the Composite OperationFor Composite Operations you don't use the Action Mapping Xml for both the SQL Server and Oracle bindings.

Hey BaByPaW1990,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
You can get your APN settings from your network service provider, also make sure you have a BlackBerry data plan.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

i have an xml file:
<OrderInfo>
<ItemID></ItemID>
<ItemPrice></ItemPrice>
<ItemID></ItemID>
<ItemPrice></ItemPrice>
<TotalItem></TotalItem>
<TotalPrice></TotalPrice>
</OrderInfo>i know ItemID and ItemPrice should be in an Item element, but I cannot change this format (other application use it).
I would like to create a schema.
I'm using the schema to validate the xml document that is being sent to my application.
The ItemID and ItemPrice occurs in a sequence.
Both ItemId and ItemPrice can be repeated unbounded (they are in fact a "group")
TotalItem and TotalPrice occurs only once and at the end of the (ItemID, ItemPrice group)
i would like a schema for this.
<xs:element name="OrderInfo">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:group name="MyOrder">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="ItemID" type="xs:positiveinteger"/>
<xs:element name="ItemPrice" type="xs:decimal"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:group>
<xs:element name="TotalPrice" type="xs:decimal"/>
<xs:element name="TotalItem" type="xs:decimal"/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>help?dvohra09 :
thanx for your help. it seem that i cannot decalre an annonymous "group", which is ok, since i rather have a named group...which i can refer to later
I have gotten the schema to work (below is the result..so other can use as an eample):
xml file:
<OrderInfo>
<ItemID>1234</ItemID>
<ItemDescription>Music CD</ItemDescription>
<ItemPrice>10.99</ItemPrice>
<ItemID>5678</ItemID>
<ItemDescription>Star Wars 1 DVD</ItemDescription>
<ItemPrice>19.99</ItemPrice>
<TotalItem>2</TotalItem>
<TotalPrice>30.98</TotalPrice>
</OrderInfo>schema (xsd) file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="OrderInfo" type="orderType">
<xs:complexType name="orderType>
<xs:sequence>
<xsd:group ref="ItemInfo" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
<xsd:group ref="saleInfo" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xsd:group name="itemInfo" id="itemInfo">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="ItemID" type="xsd:integer"/>
<xsd:element name="ItemDescription" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="ItemPrice" type="xsd:decimal"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:group>
<xsd:group name="saleInfo" id="saleInfo">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="TotalItem" type="xsd:integer"/>
<xsd:element name="TotalPrice" type="xsd:decimal"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:group>
</xsd:schema>i was haing trouble referencing the group, but found out that the group requires a "name" attribute. What i still don't understand is what the group "id" is used for then? -
Help With Multiple Schemas In Multiple Environments
Dear Oracle Forum:
We have a bit of controversy around the office and I was hoping we could get some expert input to get us on the right track.
For the purposes of this discussion, we have two machines, development and production. Currently, on each machine, we have one database with multiple schemas, say, one for sales data and another for inventory. The sales data has maybe 200 tables and the inventory has another 50. About 12 times a year, once a month, we have a release and move code from dev to prod. The database is accessed by several hundred Pro*C and Pro*Cobol programs for online transaction processing.
The problem comes up when we need to have multiple development environments. If I need to work on something for May that requires the customer address field to be 50 characters and somebody else is working on something for July that requires the customer address field to be 100 characters, we can’t both function in the same schema. We have a method of configuring running programs to attach to a given schema/database. Currently, everything connects to the same place. We were told that we should not have the programs running as the owners of the schemas for some reason so we set up additional users. The SALES schema is accessed with the connect string: SALES_USER/[email protected]. (I don’t know where we got dot world from but that is not the current discussion.)
One of the guys said that we should have 12 copies of the database running, which is kind of painful to think about in my opinion. Oracle is not a lightweight product and there are any number of ancillary processes that would have to be duplicated 12 times.
My recommendation is that we have 12 schemas each for sales and inventory with 12 users each to access them. We would have something like JAN_SALES_USER, FEB_SALES_USER, etc. Each user would have synonyms set up for each of the tables it is interested in. When my program connects as MAY_SALES_USER, I could select from the customer table and I would get my 50 character address field. When the other user connects as JUL_SALES_USER, he would get his 100 character address field. Both of us would not know anything different.
Another idea that came up is to have a logon trigger that would set the current schema for that user to the appropriate base schema. When JUL_SALES_USER logs in, the current schema would be set to JUL_SALES, etc. This would simplify things by allowing us to avoid having something like 2400 synonyms to maintain (which could be automated without too much difficulty) but it would complicate things by requiring a trigger.
There are probably other ways to go about this we have not considered as yet. Any input you can give will be appreciated.

I'd rather see you with 12 schemas than with 12 databases. Unless you have lots of CPUs to spare ... and lots of cash to pay for those extra CPU licenses.
Then again, I'd take it one step further and ask to investigate the base design. There should be little reason to change the schema based on time. Indeed, from what little I know of your app, I'd have to ask whether adding a 'date' column and appropriate views or properly coded SQL statements might simplify things. Interesting. If we were to have one big Customer table with views for each month, how would we handle the case where the May people have to see 50 character address and July have to see a 100 character address field. I guess we could have MAY_ADDRESS VARCHAR2(50) and JULY_ADDRESS VARCHAR2(100) and take care to make sure that people connecting as May can only see the May columns, etc. This is simpler than multiple schemas?
I may have overly simplified things in my effort to get something down that would not require too much explanation. The big thing is that multiple people are doing development and they have to be independent of each other. If we were to drop a column for July, the May people will have trouble compiling if we don’t keep things separate. It is not a case of making the data available. The data in development is something we cook up to allow us to test. The other part is the code we compile now will be released to production one of these times. In production, there is only a need for one database.
We are moving from another database product where multiple databases are effectively different sets of files. We have lots of disk space so multiple databases were no problem. Oracle is such a powerful product; I can’t believe there is not some way to set up something similar.
