How do i disable "change password" in "security & privacy"

Hi... i think something might be wrong... I have a standard account (for a child) that is locked down by parental controls by an admin user. I've locked changing the password - "Disable changing the password"... The lock icon is locked for users and groups in the standard account - so that works.
However if i goto System Preferences/Security & Privacy/General/Change Password it allows for changing of the standard account password and does not require the admin password.
Really? Can anybody else confirm this? How do I lock this also?
thanks in advance.

This isn't an answer.
You aren't the only one seeing this behavior. If you monitor the "More Like This" box (top right), other threads appear. Opening them usually displays other threads.
You might want to submit feedback to Apple so they are aware of the problem:

Cant change password in Security & Privacy

Im trying to change apps that control my computer but I can no longer get access to privacy settings in "security & privacy." I couldnt remember my old appleID password so just changed which means I cant update the login password in the general settings either.
Is anyone able to help me out?

That doesnt work unfortunately. I have just changed my appleID but it still doesnt work.
From what I can see I have a login password set in the security & privacy panel but when I go to change the password I get prompted for my old password first, which I have forgotten. Since there is no way to reset this im stuck between a rock and hard place it seems.

How do I Disable ThinkVantage Password Manager

I have a new Lenovo T400. ThinkVantage has a password manager that pops up almost continuously when I'm browsing the web and, quite frankly, it's irritating. How do I disable the password manager?

Hmmmm, as far as I know, the "Password Manager" is installed with the "Client Security Solution". Anyway, if you are using windows XP and you have not uninstalled the "Client Security Solution", you can run it manually as following:
Windows --> Start --> Run --> "C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Client Security Solution\css_user.exe" /startmenu
But there is another option. You can disable Password Manager per-application. For example if you want to disable it for Internet Explorer try this
Password Manager --> Set Preference --> General --> Application Support --> Uncheck the Internet Explorer.
You can turn it off for all applications by disabling available options.

Obiee 11g How to let user change password

obiee 11g How to let user change password ？
i not mean use weblogic console。 normal user how to change password。

With 11g, OBIEE essentially uses the 10g notion of external authentication.
By default, this is done by the WLS (Weblogic) LDAP identity store, but it may be done by another supported Authenticator either within WLS, or in the OBIS meta data (i.e. Custom Authenticator or LDAP). As such, OBIEE no longer has any control over user passwords; this is why the steps referenced in note 1102353.1 do not apply to OBIEE 11g, but only to internal/repository-defined users in OBIEE 10g.
So, as with password maintenance in OBIEE 10g when an external authenticator is used, it is within that external authentication system that password is changed, not within OBIEE 11g. There is no option in OBIEE 11g to allow users to change passwords.
There are two work-arounds with which you can change your password:
1) From the Weblogic administration console/WLST.
You need to give such user access into Weblogic console or access to browse through involved MBean hierarchy and other modify permissions. Changing the password using WLST instance is covered here:
Ideally, the console and WLST approaches are used by Administration accounts to manage other users. But the console and WLST can be made to allow other users to change passwords (which will be more or less like carrying out an administrative task by users themselves)
2) Using a programmatic approach.
Here the application that intends to provide password change functionality to its users should implement this functionality on its own (GUI plus call to the relevant Weblogic API). Weblogic provides an MBean that the application can use to accomplish this. See here for more information.
An enhancement request exists for this functionality. This is unpublished bug 11836170 - enable non admin users to change passwords in obiee 11g.

How to enable users change password in obiee 11g?

Is there anyone know how to enable users change password in obiee 11g?
And I have tried the method in obiee 10g, bu it didn't work.
Any help would be appreciate.

As per I understand your requirement,
In your Dashboard create a Presentation variable which receives the value of year you select.
Now in your analysis, select the year column along with all the measures you want (Actual, plan, Forecast, and what-if, etc).
Create a filter on Year column and convert it into SQL. Put the condition as:
"Year" BETWEEN @{Presentaion_Variable} - 1 AND @{Presentation_Variable}
You will get the result for selected year and the previous year.
Hope it helps..
Regards,
A.K.

How Do I Disable/Change Settings on My Scroll Wheel?

I just downloaded Google SketchUp (a free drafting program) and I constantly need to "grip" the page to rotate and pan along my objects. This is done by clicking in on the scroll wheel and moving the mouse. On my Mac though (as opposed to the PCs at school) it pops up the dashboard screen every time I try this. So my question: How do I disable/change the default settings on my scroll wheel so I can use this program efficiently?
-I never use the dashboard and can click the little icon if I need to, so keeping shortcut to that isn't an issue, I just want my scroll wheel back!

I am either in the wrong location or have a different layout than you.
Apple button > system preferences > keyboard and mouse > mouse tab > then all I have are the options to change the tracking speed, scrolling speed, double-click speed, and which button is required to zoom with the scroll wheel. The only drop-down menu I have on this screen is to select which button + scroll wheel allows me to zoom.
I am using version 10.5.6. Am I in the incorrect section of this forum?

How to disable change password in finder while connecting to a network computer?

Hi folks,
I'd like to disable the Change Password option that shows when I want to connect into a network computer:
- Both users (client and server) are already running with parental controls set to "prevent(s) the user from changing their password in the Users & Groups preference pane".
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am also facing the same issue and I am not able to su to root user as the password is expired. and the user I am currently logged in does not have permission to change the root password. I just want to know how I can change the root password now? I am connected to my SPARC Solaris 10 T1000 server through hyperterminal.
The worst thing is that, I do not have IP to the server through which I can try ssh to the server and change the password. Please let me know the solution if you know.
Thanks in advance.

How to preserve recently changed passwords during a RPD promotion/overwrite

Hi All,
1. We are using BIEE built-in authentication (passwords are stored in RPD file);
2. Users are allowed to change their passwords at any time;
3. Other than PD, we also have a DEV and a QA environements where we fix bugs and do minor enhancements;
the questions is: How can we promote the new RPD file (from QA to PD environment) once it passes testing? If we simply overwrite the RPD file in PD environment, then recently changed passwords (the ones changed & stored in the new RPD file) will be lost. it seems we need to do a merge or something, but we wonder what the Oracle recommended solution is.
It'd be greatly appreciated if some expert can shine some light on this issue. Thanks!!
- D

Yes, great questions.
I have always used the merge process which is the base of the Obiee software configuration and I never had problem of security.
As the multi-user environment is based on this process, you normally shouldn't have any problem.
Do a test before and good backup before migration.
Success
Nico
Below an extract of my notes :
By default, the Oracle BI repository development environment is not set up for multiple users. However, online editing makes it possible for multiple developers to work simultaneously, though this may not be an efficient methodology, and can result in conflicts, because developers can potentially overwrite each other's work.
To develop a repository in a concurrent version environment, you have two choices :
* first of all, you can send the repository to the developer, keep a copy, retrieve it after modification and perform an Merge Repository
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/bi_server/obiee_repository_merge
* second, you can set up a multiuser environment (MUD) which use the notion of Projects to split the work area. It would permit developers to modify a repository simultaneously and then check in changes.
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/bi_server/multiuser_environment
The import option which permit to import a subset of a repository to an other repository, work but is deprecated.

Disable "Change Password" funtionality on EDMS 7.0

Hi
Is it possible to disable/hide the "Change Password" functionality on the EDMS 7.0 logon screen? If so, how?
Regards,
CJ

Hi CJ,
EasyDMS is developed in C++ and as far as I know there is no possibility in the SAP system to modify the logon screen for EasyDMS. So I think the 'Change password' flag cannot be removed.
Best regards,
Christoph

How can a disable the password required to login?

I have a new Macbook Pro retina display. I am the only user of the computer, and I would really like to be able to open and use my computer without being asked for my login password everytime. I have searched this forum for the answer, but I am more confused now than before? One of the answers says to simply go to "Security & Privacy" > General and simply uncheck the box in front of the line that says "require password ***** after sleep or screen saver begins". They even show a screen shot clearly showing this box. The problem is that on my Macbook Pro, when I go to this location, there is NO box in front of that line! There is a small window where I can choose between "immediately - 1 hour", but that is it. Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone know how I can turn off this prompt for the login password?
Thank you!
Lincoln

Try this...
System Preferences > Users and Groups
Choose your username then click on "Log In Options" below
Next, turn "Automatic login" to ON then supply the password to your account
Then, in the "Security & Privacy" Section, make sure "Disable automatic login" is OFF

How to Enforce User Change Password First Time User in Release 2?

Hi...
We discovered in Oracle Directory Manager(in unix is oidadmin), there actualy
column to expiry date.(the default is 60).
We follow this notes in metalink..
Note:176470.1 Subject: How To Pre-Expire Portal Passwords
Even though the note is for Portal30(release1), we just wangt to try it in our Release 2...
Extract from the note
"3. Set the value of the column LAST_PASSWD_CHANGE_TIME in the table WWSEC_PERSON$ in SSO schema to a value older than the password expiration period (default is 90 days) before the current time (e.g. sysdate - 100) for the appropriate user(s)
4. For example, if you have created a user called TEST
you would issue a command such as:
update wwsec_person$
set LAST_PASSWD_CHANGE_TIME =sysdate-70
where USER_NAME='TEST';
commit; "
But, when we try to login again in the portal, we can still login...
So, is the function still exist in Release 2?..
If not, why Oracle Portal throw that function away?
Why there still columns in WWSEC_PERSON$ that maybe linked to the password problem?
can anybody help/explain?
Thanks....

Rather than rehash what has already been thoroughly discussed, check this thread. This should answer your question.
