Help with Proxy Authentication

Hi,
Can proxy authentication be used in Oracle Standard Edition? I am connecting as a client to the database through the middle tier java application. I have a line of code that tries to get a proxy connection on behalf of the user. I get the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Enterprise User Security
Any idea why this occurs?
thanks

Strange behaviour when using connection pooling with proxy authentication

All
I have developed an ASP.NET 1.1 Web application that uses ODP.NET 9.2.0.4 accessing Oracle Database 8i (which is to be upgraded to 10g in the coming months). I have enabled connection pooling and implemented proxy authentication.
I am observing a strange behaviour in the live environment. If two users (User 1 and User 2) are executing SQL statements at the same time (concurrent threads in IIS), the following is occurring:
* User 1 opens a new connection, executes a SELECT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log, which uses the USER function, shows User 1 executed this statement.
* User 2 opens the same connection (before it is released to the connection pool?), excutes an INSERT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log shows User 1, not User 2, executed this statement.
Is this a known issue when using connection pooling with proxy authentication? I appreciate your help.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I tried to reproduce your complaint, but was unable to. I didnt use auditting however, just a series of "select user from dual" with proxy authentication. You might want to see if you can put together a small complete testcase for this and open a sr with support.
Cheers
Greg

Administration of APEX in SQL Developer with Proxy Authentication impossibl

Hello!
We are using latest version of SQL Developer to administer APEX. We are connecting to the database with proxy authentication. The syntax is:
personal_user[apex_ws_owner]
e.g.: mdecker[apex_demo]
When trying to deploy APEX application I go to "Database Object" -> Application Express -> Application1 [100] -> right mouse click: "Deploy Application". Then I select the appropriate database identifier and next, I am presented with a screen showing import options. In second line, it says: "Parsing Schema: MDECKER".
This is wrong: it has to be Parsing Schema: APEX_DEMO. It seems that managing APEX with SQL Developer does not support Proxy Authentication.
Could you please confirm?
Is there a way to formally ask for this enhancement?
Best regards,
Martin
Update:
I found out that if I check the flag "Proxy Authentication" in the connect details and provide both passwords, the deploy application parsing schema is set to the correct APEX_DEMO account. However, we are using Proxy Authentication in order to avoid having to know the application password.

There is a write-up about connecting to APEX here: <a href ="http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/sql_dev_integration.html" >SQL Dev Oracle APEX Integration</a>
<p>You do need to have updated to Oracle APEX 3.0.1.

SCCM 2012 R2 ADR issue with proxy authentication

Hi,
We're migrating SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012 R2.
In SCCM 2007, the proxy server is configured with user authentication, and this works.
In SCCM 2012 R2, the Software Update Point is installed locally and connected with a local WSUS 4.0 (Server 2012)
We use a proxy with user authentication for Update Deployment. (This user is the same as configured in SCCM 2007.)
The Proxy Server is Blue Coat SG.
The proxy account is used for:
The Synchronization works, but Automatic Deployment Rule (ADR) doesn't work.
When an Automatic Deployment Rule is started, it tries to authenticate 3 times.

It seems that the ADR uses a wrong password when authenticating with the proxy, but this same user works when synchronizing with WSUS.
We performed the following actions with no result:
run the ADR manually and automatic,
reinstalled WSUS and SUP,
changed proxy user account.

Matthias

Currently, the command shows:
Current WinHTTP proxy settings:
    Direct access (no proxy server).
We've been testing with:
upddwnldcfg.exe /s:<proxyserver>:<port> /u:<user> /allusers
psexec -i -s iexplore.exe, set Internet Explorer proxy manually
All with same result, proxy user getting locked when ADR runs.
(These settings have been removed after the test.)
I think dekac99 would suggest netsh winhttp set proxy or import proxy.
then turn off proxy use on the role SUP (this way not SCCM will send auth but all winhttp will use proxy)
the problems with that for me are:
- if MS implemented role-based proxy usage, why set at http layer - of course this might work as a workaround for the time being so it might be a good idea but I'm just not sure what unwanted issues it may cause
- the other thing is where I'm not sure, with set proxy you cannot define authentication account. if you use import from IE and the IE prompted for proxy auth, the stored credential will be used on winhttp layer (though I'm not 100% sure of that) - so this
is just too uncontrolled for me
- upddwnldcfg.exe will need to run in the name of system account (it stores credentials under HKCU so far I know it will be a per user based setting)
--> what confuses me, the catalog synch works which should use the same configured proxy and account(?), only ADR does not work. shouldn't they both use the same process for sending account auth info?

Help with Web Authentication

Having a couple of issues with web authentication, and not getting much help from Cisco TAC. Basically, I'm trying to set up different login pages for each WLAN (so far I have two) with a 4402 controller running 5.1.151.
For one WLAN, I'm using the internal (default) login page with the following modifications: Cisco Logo is hidden, custom Headline and custom Message. User authentication is done through RADIUS. This works great, but every time I reboot the controller, my custom Message disappears and I get the generic Cisco message, which I don't want. When I add the custom message, I make sure to click Apply and Save Configuration.. don't know if this is a bug or not, anyone else seeing this?
For the second WLAN, because I need a different login page, I've tried using a customized downloaded login page and also an external web page.
For the external web authentication, the documentation says you don't need a pre-authentication ACL and yet without this, the redirect doesn't work. Does anyone have this working without an ACL? Also, the sample login page provided by Cisco does not work and I have no clue what code is needed for the username and password credentials to be passed on to WLC for RADIUS authentication.
As for the customized downloaded login page, I've gotten a sample page from Cisco which they've said they do not support and this page has several issues which I can't seem to get around: it redirects users to the generic welcome page (which we don't want), and does not prompt the user when they enter incorrect credentials (though I can tell the code for this is there).
So, I'm wondering if anyone has either an external or internal login page that is working properly and is willing to point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

We have had some similar issues with the controllers not telling user they have used the right username/password, but have solved it. Whether it will help or not we can let you have a copy of our login.tar file if you want, just stick your email address in a reply.
As far as I know, there is only one place to enter a re-direct page, which is in the config for the default web auth page and all web auth methods use this re-direct...that is our experience at least.

Sender file Adapter, problem with proxy authentication

HI all,
i'm having some problems with the following scenario, i need to configure a sender file adapter which connects to a FTP server. To connect this FTP server i need to set a proxy (and so a username and a password), and i don't know how to do.
From note 821267 seems that the proxy is not supported for an FTP adapter, but the are some workaround like the ones described in the following link
Re: Proxy server inFTP adapter
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=57137
They don't work in my case as i need to se two username (the one for proxy and the one for the ftp server) and i cannot force the proxy use for all XI applications.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot
Aldo

Proxy is necessary to exit the customer local intranet. It's not possible to go outside network without going through the proxy server.
I cannot set the proxy server in file adapter as it's not supported like described in SAp note, a possible workarounf is to force the proxy server in the J2ee stack but in this way all PI calls would use that proxy..

Using Sent Unix Command in ARD 3 with proxy authentication

I'd like to use Unix commands to update Apple software through ARD thus allowing me to lock the computer screen before the process using the ARD command to do so, thus keeping the users from interfering with the process .
Our network utilizes password protected firewall proxy that hangs ARD when using the softwareupdate command through ARD's "Send Unix Command..." at the point in which it would ask for authentication if using the same command in the terminal.
Is there a Unix/terminal script or a series of script commands that could be modified to wait and enter the appropriate authentication at the previous mentioned prompt?
I've researched this topic on this forum and discover a few post that states it is not possible but they are fairly old posts so I am hoping ARD 3 has some scripts or commands that can pass thru a username and password

Welcome,
I use the "System Events" handler, e.g.:
          tell application "System Events" to delay 5.5
          tell application "System Events" to keystroke "K"
          tell application "System Events" to delay 0.5
          tell application "System Events" to keystroke return

Help with Proxy Server

Hi!All
I have developed a Chat Application which has to be put up at the Clients
place over the intranet,i have developed it using the Avalon FrameWork for the server side and applet on the Client side.Everything works perfectly,the application also runs perfectly,im using the port 4000 for communication,now the problem is that since at the Clients place we have a Proxy Server which only allows port 80 and bards all other port so my appliaction will not perform there at all,i was wondering is there any other way out of this problem if anyone has ever been through this problem please let me know at theearliest.Help needed urgently.Awaiting reply.
Thanx.

Try routing the communication from your end from port 4000 to port 80 using some sort of Proxy DLL if u are using IIS as the web server, it comes handy with such a thing.
Using BEA Weblogic 6.1, i have been able to do so. My web server is IIS and the app server being Weblogic, both run on different ports.
The user access the website from port 80 which is handled by IIS and then the request is funneled to Weblogic via the Proxy DLL on a specified port where my weblogic is running.
This works fine with me. Try using that am something should work.

Need help with local authentication - WLAN 2100

Hello,
Please be gentle, I am not an experienced Cisco user. My organisation has inherited a Cisco 2100 WLAN controller as a couple of Aironet 1130 access points. I have been able to get a basic configuration into the 2100, as well as the access point, but I cannot figure out how to create a user account for WPA-PSK. We do not have any type of RADIUS or LDAP services available, so I just need a simple way to provide our users with one or two account names and network keys to access the wireless network.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim

Figured it out!

Help with proxy

Our company uses a proxy server and it won't allow the download of Creative Cloud setup. The error is
"remote server not responding"
Is there a specific URL we should be allowing for it to go through. It seems to work fine on a external line. Thanks in advance

Gord Stevens please ask you I.T. department to review the the Adobe Creative Cloud Service Access Documentation for IT section of http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html. It provides the documentation necessary to configure your network to download, update, and activate the Adobe Creative software included with your membership.

Proxy Authentication Error in Web Service with SAAJ on Weblogic 9.2 MP3

Hi,
I have encountered a problem with proxy authentication in SAAJ web service (WS) calls on Weblogic 9.2 MP3.
My WS client (which uses SAAJ's SOAP classes) should use a proxy that requires authentication to call the external web services.
However, it does not perform the authentication and receives HTTP Error 407 - Unauthorized.
The reason seems to be that Weblogic's Http Handler (weblogic.net.http.Handler) ignores the proxy authentication.
I was able to work around it by setting sun's http handler explicitly in the WS endpoint URL. Sun's handler (sun.net.www.protocol.http.Handler) makes use of the Authenticator class I provided.
1. Please see my code below and let me know if this is the only solution or if I'm doing something wrong. While testing on Tomcat I did not have to set the handler.
2. I have seen that there are also System properties for http.proxyUser and http.proxyPasword, however if I use these and ommit setting the SimpleAuthenticator, it also fails (with either handler!). An explanation of that is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Code:
===========================================================
System.setProperty("http.proxySet", "true");
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "localhost");
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "808");
//System.setProperty("http.proxyUser", "myuser");
//System.setProperty("http.proxyPassword", "mypw");
Authenticator.setDefault(new SimpleAuthenticator("myuser", "mypw"));
String urlString = "http://someurl:8080/webservice..";
URL endpoint1 = new URL(urlString);
URL endpoint2 = new URL(null, urlString, new sun.net.www.protocol.http.Handler());
SOAPConnectionFactory soapfactory = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection connection = soapfactory.createConnection();
connection.call(message, endpoint1); // Gives Exception with HTTP Error 407
connection.call(message, endpoint2); // Works and uses the proxy
For reference:
===========================================================
public class SimpleAuthenticator extends Authenticator {
     private String username, password;
     public SimpleAuthenticator(String username, String password) {
          this.username = username;
          this.password = password;
     protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
          return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password.toCharArray());
}

Is there an issue with the latest version of FF with HTTPS requests and Proxy authentication?

I'm currently working inside a cope network behind a proxy, which requires authentication.
When browsing to websites externally to our network I would usually only be promoted once for authentication details; after that I would never see the prompt again until after restating the browser.
However after the latest update I've found that when visiting HTTPS sites I'm promoted for my login details. But even though I enter the correct information the prompt does not take the details and continually asks until eventually our proxy closes the connection (usually with my account now being locked).
My other browsers (IE, GC) work fine without problems.
Any ideas?

It could be a regression in Firefox 18 that wasn't present in Firefox 17. The developers are known nowadays for including too many experimental changes and my bet is one of them is causing this.
But to confirm, could you downgrade back to Firefox 17 and still see if it works well with proxy authentication?

Safari for Windows won't remember proxy authentication credentials

I'm trying to use Safari 5.1.2 on my work Windows 7 Professional machine to keep my bookmarks and reading list in sync with my iPhone and home Mac via iCloud. On my company network we use a proxy on port 9000 for all browsing, however Safari constantly spawns authenitcation credential prompts when opening pages (or without navigating at all). Selecting the option to remember the credentials does nothing, and the options for usernames and passwords is selected in Safari options but this doesn't help.
It doesn't matter what format I enter my username as. So far I've tried:
user
domain\user
FQDN\user
user@domain
user@FQDN
all to no avail.
Chrome V16 and IE9 have no issues with proxy authentication and they seem to share the global LAN settings. It doesn;t even hinder Safari's ability to resolve pages through the proxy, it's just annoying for each page view to spawn up to a dozen prompts.
Has anyone else had this issue, or shed any light on how to resolve?

Hi,
Just to notify that this exact issue is also on Windows XP. Thanks.
