How do I encrypt an archive for a PC user?

I can't find a way to encrypt an archive for a PC user. There doesn't seem to be an option when making an archive from the Finder. I also tried making an encrypted disk image with Disk Utility but the PC can't open the DMG filetype apparently.
In the reverse, the same problem exists if I try to open a zip file encrypted on a PC - can't be done.
When I do a Google search the results for encrypted archive usually point to Stuffit Deluxe or encrypted disk images that you can use on your mac or another Mac.
Does anyone know how to make/use encrypted archives that are cross platform? I'd like to avoid buying a program (i.e. Stuffit Deluxe) just for this one utilitarian task. Thanks.

Thanks, Dave.
I tried the command you gave me. It worked! I could open the zipped archive on my neighbor's PC.
The only weird things, are that it seems to zip all the other folders, e.g. users\Marlinespike\desktop\target-file, in the filepath and not just the target file, and that it also drops the zipped archive in the home folder.
I tried adding some of the other commands, such as zip -e -r or zip -er or zip -e -d but it doesn't seem to work. However, this is a huge improvement over where I was earlier.
I clicked through those links - I forgot about Mac GNU Privacy and am going to check those out too.

    Hi alll,
    How to get a organization name for a particular user using API's

    You need to do something like this:

  • How to allow access to winrs for non-admin user?

    I have Windows Server 2012 (and Server 2008, but it is next priority) to monitor it using txwinrm. txwinrm library internally is using WinRS protocol. I have to monitor it using least privileged user, but don't know how to configure access for him.
    All I managed to do - is to configure remote Powershell session for my user, but it's look like that winrs and powershell sessions have different security descriptors:
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential Administrator $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
    # gives 4
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName 192.168.173.206 -Credential (credential lpu1 $pwd) -ScriptBlock { 2 + 2}
    # gives 4
    winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:Administrator -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
    # gives 4
    winrs -r:192.168.173.206 -u:lpu1 -p:$pwd 'powershell -command "2+2"'
    # Gives Winrs error: Access is denied.
    Configuration for my user is following:
    (Get-Item WSMan:\localhost\Service\RootSDDL).value
    # O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1141)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GWGX;;;WD)
    (Get-PSSessionConfiguration -name Microsoft.Powershell).SecurityDescriptorSddl
    # O:NSG:BAD:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;S-1-5-21-3231263931-1371906242-1889625497-1149)S:P(AU;FA;GA;;;WD)(AU;SA;GXGW;;;WD)
    (In each security descriptor my user is given general access to protected object).
    So what security descriptor should I set to make my winrs query work for non-admin user?

    Hi Bunyk,
    I can not recreate the erroe you posted, and please also post the screenshoot in your convenience.
    I tested with a non-domain user but has the local admin permission of the remote computer, and this worked, before running the remote cmdlet in powershell, I also configured the TrustedHosts.
    In addition, the access denied could be also caused to the Protocol Filtering on the remote server, for more detailed information, please refer to this thread:
    winrs error:access is denied
    I hope this helps.

  • How to block a single table for a single user

    Hi all.
    I want to block a single Z table for a single user. How to do this?  If he/she tries to display data using SE16 or SE11 Tcode he/she should get an error message.
    Regards,
    Prajwal K.

    Hi Prajwal,
    We can use the function modules ENQUEUE_E_TABLE for locking tables and the function module DEQUEUE_E_TABLE for unlocking tables. With this method, we don't need to lock objects in order to lock the tables. In other words, any table can be locked/unlocked using these function modules.
    Check this sample code:
    *Locking Table*
    data:
    varkey like rstable-varkey.
    varkey = sy-mandt.
    locking the tables............................
    call function 'ENQUEUE_E_TABLE'
    exporting
    MODE_RSTABLE = 'E'
    tabname = 'MARA'
    varkey = varkey
    X_TABNAME = ' '
    X_VARKEY = ' '
    _SCOPE = '2'
    _WAIT = ' '
    _COLLECT = 'X'
    exceptions
    foreign_lock = 1
    system_failure = 2
    others = 3.
    Hope this helps you.

    i need to know how to size a media server for 800-1200 user

    Please clarify what you mean. Do you already have an iPhone? If so, and it came from the US and is (presumably) carrier locked, you're out of luck. NONE of the US carriers will unlock iPhones. There are no exceptions.
    The unlocked iPhone 4S is not yet available in US Apple retail stores. All phones sold at retail in the US are currently carrier locked.

  • How can we know the password for a oracle user

    Hi to All,
    Can any one help me plz how can we know the password for any user in oracle.
    Regards
    dxb_dba

    Assuming one wants to stay with database-stored passwords (the traditional method), one may want to look at the password aging and complexity enforcing mechanisms.
    Oracle has a complete manual around this. For 10gR2, the Oacle Database Security Guide chapter 4 is interesting reading - section 4.3 is the discussion for database authentication. And section 7.4.4 talks about the complexity enforcement.

    Prepare Your Mac for Sale
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer.  After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.  After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab.  Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button.  Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button.  Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive.  If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive.  The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive.  After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Now complete the OS X installation.  At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer.  Instead just shut it off.  The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

  • How do I encrypt a folder for email

    I'd like to encrypt, ideally compress and encrypt a series of pdfs and mail them to a Windows person.
    I know stuffit does that but it is cumbersome and I have an old version.
    Any ideas on a modern utility - or using OSX

    First open the file on your computer.  Then go to file>print.  Click on the PDF button and then select save as PDF.  Select where to save it, then select security options.  Then save it and give it a password.  Now open Mail and create a new message and attach the password protected PDF.  When you attach the PDF a notice comes up that the PDF is password protected and it asks for the password.  Don't put in the password, just send the email.  The person receiving the email will have to put in the password to open it.  It works very well, even when receiving it on an iPad.

  • How to "see" encrypted attribute values (for verification)

    Hi,
    I have enabled attribute encryption following:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0995/6n3cq3aqc?a=view
    I configured an attribute named "xx-attribute1" to be encrypted:
    C:\SunDS\ds6\bin>dsconf create-encrypted-attr verbose -h foo.whatever.com secure-port 636 dc=orwhatever,dc=com axx-attribute1 des3
    Certificate "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" presented by the server is not trusted.
    Type "Y" to accept, "y" to accept just once, "n" to refuse, "d" for more details
    : Y
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password:
    Creating the encrypted attribute "dc=orwhatever,dc=com" for "xx-attribute1"...
    Data have to be imported to have attribute encrypted on "dc=orwhatever,dc=com".
    The "create-encrypted-attr" operation succeeded on "foo.whatever.com:636".
    and then I used dsconf to check that the change "took":
    C:\SunDS\ds6\bin>dsconf list-encrypted-attrs -h foo.whatever.com --secure-port 636 dc=orwhatever,dc=com
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password:
    xx-attribute1
    So, that part looks ok.
    I then used dscc to add an "xx-attribute1" to one of my users.
    I would like to actually "see" the encrypted attribute somewhere, just to verify that the value that I entered using dscc was, in fact, encrypted, i.e., something like:
    {des3}xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    I've looked through the files in the "data" directory for this suffix, but I can't find anything that looks like that.
    Is there any way to "see" that?
    To be clear, I know that I won't be able to decrypt the encrypted value. I just want to verify, somehow, that SunDS is encrypting data that I'm entering.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Hi,
    I think I was able to find the encrypted attribute in xxx_id2entry.db3:
    xx-attribute1: {ckm_des3_cbc}wsRrq1ygL8cnQOXSuu2dAz+1w==
    so, it looks like the encryption is working :).

  • How to use OUD as LDAP for single db user repository?

    I have been assigned a project to add all the database users to OUD as a single repository for all our database users.  This would be similar to using Active Directory.  Could someone explain or point me in the right direction on how to add users and password (to include password policy) to OUD and then map them to global database schemas and/or roles?   I am a DBA and not familiar with OUD, but followed the instructions and got OUD up and running and have registered the databases with it.
    Part 2 of my question is after registering the database with OUD, this database is a 2 node RAC and it only registered the database and not the associated instances and/or services.  How do you add those (instances and services) into OUD?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello,
    This is typically the EUS use case where OUD is used to store Enterprise Users and Roles + the associated mappings.
    More about EUS support in OUD at Integrating With Oracle's Enterprise User Security - 11g Release 2 (11.1.2)
    I guess you configured DB user location in the OUD directory when you configured EUS. See Integrating Oracle Unified Directory with Oracle Enterprise User Security - 11g Release 2 (11.1.2)
    You can create users in LDAP using various means e.g.
    ldapmodify (Adding, Modifying, and Deleting Directory Data - Oracle Fusion Middleware Administration Guide for Oracle Unified Direct…). Any user objectclass, including inetorgperson would fit
    import-ldif
    any graphical tool including ODSM (Managing Data With Oracle Directory Services Manager - Oracle Fusion Middleware Administration Guide for Oracle Unified …)
    To create roles and mappings, you can use the database console  or EUSM command line as described in https://blogs.oracle.com/sduloutr/entry/using_eusm_to_manage_eus
    Regarding question #2, RAC instances are not individually registsred in EUS, the global RAC DB name only need to be registered.
