How does one create a user with a null password in iManager?

I'm setting up LDAP authentication and need to create a user with a null password.
If you do not put a password in the password field when creating the user in iManager, a message pops up stating, No password has been defined for this user.
You are given a choice of:
Allow user to log in without a password
- or -
Do not allow user to log in without a password
If you choose Do not allow user to log in without a password, there are no complaints.
When I look at the properties of the newly-created user, however, I note that the "Require a password" checkbox is not filled in.
That would imply that the answer to the question posed during the user's creation is moot; either answer produces a user that can log in without a password.
I can then assign the Common Proxy password policy to the user, which does not dictate a minimum length for a password.
From that point forward, any attempts to leave the password field blank in iManager results in another pop-up message stating:
"Failure to enter a password will allow the user to login without a password."
That implies that no password exists for the user, as opposed to a null password.
Is that correct or are the public and private key for the user object still generated?

If you do not specify a password, which is what happens when you select
the 'Do not allow user to log in without a password' option initially, the
user cannot login. A user with no password (meaning no password exists at
all, similar to a 'null' in programming) cannot login with a password
because, of course, they do not have a password.
If you specify a zero-length string as the password you are effectively
(and usually) creating a proxy user, for example to be used for the LDAP
service in eDirectory, and this user can login typing in a password (since
typing would imply one or more characters) but nevertheless there IS a
password, but it happens that it is zero-length, so typing nothing for the
password IS submitting the correct password. This is the option carried
out by eDirectory when you choose, 'Allow user to log in without a
password' (the prompt is a little misleading with its "without a password"
phrase).
Once you assign a UP policy you are telling the system that there SHOULD
be a password on the user (and with common proxy there definitely should
be, probably a strong one at that) so the only option now is whether or
not the password is zero-length or longer. Obviously longer is the
correct option for security reasons.
Good luck.

How does one create a form with prefilled editable text in Acrobat Pro, such as for fliers or business cards that can be edited and saved by the end user in Reader?

Working on a Mac. Have seen examples so know it's possible.

When I created a new template like you told me, I wasn't given the option to rename the fields. See screenshot below. I'm just given the option to add a new template. Changing it refers to changing the template to a different page.
If you can show me how to have the fields renamed automatically or use the rename parameter, I think that should fix it.
Under Tools>JavaScript>Document JavaScripts, I've added a Script named "PackagingArtwork".
// Here is the code
function PackagingArtwork()
{this.createTemplate({cName: "PackagingArtwork", nPage: 5});
// Here the code that spawns the template
var PackagingArtworkArray = this.templates;
          var PackagingArtwork = PackagingArtworkArray[0];
          PackagingArtwork.spawn(this.numPages, false, false);
This is what the JS debugger said.

How does one create their own interpolation

I am currently working on a tile-based environment in which the user controls a tank. I have been attempting to use interpolators to smooth out the movement between tiles, but I have had a lot of trouble acheiving the desired effects. From what I have gathered from various posts is that the interpolator classes are only useful for repeating animations (please correct me if this statement is wrong).
My question then is:
How does one create their own or methods which simulates the interpolation behavior; I am particularly interested in the PositionInterpolator for translating the missles fired by the tank.
I attempted to do this several times, but I have failed. Here is one of my attempts:
public void fire()
     show(); //show the missle geometry
     int TRANSLATION_TIME = 1000; //blast alive for 5 seconds
     float DISTANCE = 20.0f; //missle travels a distance of 20 units
     //interpolate path
     long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
     long endTime = startTime +TRANSLATION_TIME;
     long interval = endTime - startTime;
     float translationPercent;
     float lastTransPercent = 0;
     float dist;
     Transform3D translate = new Transform3D();
     while(System.currentTimeMillis() < endTime && !collision)
     interval = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;
     translationPercent = (float)interval/TRANSLATION_TIME;
     dist = DISTANCE*(translationPercent - lastTransPercent);
     lastTransPercent = translationPercent;
     translate.setTranslation(new Vector3f(0.0f, 0.0f, -dist));
     interpolate(translate);
public void interpolate(Transform3D translate)
     Transform3D t3d = new Transform3D();
     missleTG.getTransform(t3d);
     t3d.mul(translate);
     missleTG.setTransform(t3d);
What happens using this code is that the missle just waits at its initial location until the TRANSLATION_TIME has passed, and then jumps to the final position -- the missle does not smoothly translate to the final location. Are there any explainations out there for this behaviors.
-Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm also working on a game environment where the user can move around in a spaceship and fire missiles etc...
I haven't looked much at interpolators, but I use Behaviors for everything I need to move/rotate/scale...
You can for example create your own behavior (by extending the Behavior class) and set it up to move the missile when you press a specific key, or when any other kind of event takes place...
You should check the documentation for the Behavior class.
Hope this helps...

How does one create LOV Map between 2 fields for custom lookup mapping

Hi there
In Internet Expenses, Expense Report Line Detail we have two unrelated fields; namely Expense Location & Tax Code.
The requirement is to map a default tax code to locations; basically when a user enters Expense Location then the mapped tax code value should default into field Tax Code.
The location-tax code mapping is stored in a custom lookup (FND_LOOKUP_VALUES).
My question is how does one go about implementing this? For example is it possbile to create a new (hidden) LOV based on the lookup mapping & then create a Personalization LOV Mapping between the 3 LOV... Or is it necessary to modify the Tax Code drop down Message Choice in JDeveloper? Of course details are appreciated!
FYI below is the relevant Personalization Structure from "Personalize Stack Layout: (NormalDetails)".
Message Lov Input: Expense Location
- Lov Mappings
-- Lov Map: (lovMap1)
-- Lov Map: (lovMap2)
-- Lov Map: (lovMap3)
- Message Text Input: Expense Location
- Message Styled Text: Transaction Location
- Message Text Input: Merchant Name Yes
- Message Styled Text: Description
- Message Check Box: Original Receipt Missing Yes
- Message Choice: Tax Code
- Message Check Box: Amount Includes Tax
- Message Choice: Tax Code
Many thanks
G

Hello all
The correct & supported method is this:
Extend the location LOV in JDeveloper & add a "default tax" attribute, this could be derived from a new location DFF storing the default tax code for each location. Now simply create a location Personalization LOV Map which takes this new location lov tax attribute & target it to the tax message choice field.
That's my 2c worth anyway, so please give comment if you feel there is a better way.
There is just one more little problem however... The requirement has changed! Now we require the tax code to default according to not one location field, but other fields too. For example if the user selects Expense Type of Beverage & Location of Netherlands then Tax Code should be NL19%, for Expense Type of Hotel then it should be NL6%; if the user ticks "Missing Receipt" field then it should over ride all others & set the code to NL0%.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

How can I create a user with rights to install packages on a publish instance?

Hi,
I am trying to create a user with the rights to upload and install content packages on a CQ publish instance and I do not wish to use the admin user. Simply adding a new user to the administrators group does not seem to be enough.
I tried adding a rep:GrantACE node through crx de/explorer but it reported the node as locked. I was able to upload a content package that removed the rep:DenyACE jcr:read for everyone, but this is not safe it seems.
Is there some special privilege that I need to add to my user/group that will allow them to access the /etc/packages tree or do I just need to add some permission somewhere within the tree.
Regards,
Chris

With some help from David Collie, Alex Klimetschek & Jörg Hoh I have a better idea of what is going on and we've found a solution.
It seems that the admin account always works in these scenarios as it has special privileges in the CRX security system; admin can do anything it likes.
Instead of creating the rep:GrantACE nodes directly, I was able to add a new ACL entry for the administrators group to /etc/packages via the Access Control Editor (http://localhost:4502/crx/explorer/ui/aceditor.jsp?ck=1373027669916&Name=acEditor&Path=%2F etc%2Fpackages&_charset_=utf-8).
Strangely, the administrators account already had some inherited rights on this directory that were overridden by the deny|everyone|jcr:read ACL entry on /etc/packages node. Adding allow:administrators|jcr:read gives any member of that group access to read and write to the /etc/packages. directory.
Now that I have setup this user we can setup a deploy step in out CI build that does not rely on using the admin account.
Thanks
Chris

How does one use punch in with v 5.5?

Hello, just downloaded the trial in hopes the punch in functions were straightened out (my terminology)
vs. version 3.
So far I haven't found a way to use this (non) feature. I can punch in but then what does one do to
select and merge the best take?
Once I click on the main clip in the track the punched clip goes to the background (i guess)
Also, in previous versions I would record multiple takes and only the last (top) version would play.
In 5.5 they all play - whether they are visible or not.
I've searched through help and the forum for information about this and haven't found anything.
I know I can't find things in the refrigerator either but that's beside the point.
From what I gather it will be a while until there is an update to this version so unless someone
can tell me how punch in and take selection is supposed to work I won't be able to upgrade.
Assistance in this matter will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Durin,
What do you mean:
"The options to only play the topmost clip or to select which clip is played is a separate item, but also shuffling up the list."
I also only want (like Floyd) to hear the "on top" sound from "punching in" as in V3. The marketing material for V5.5 mentions :
Quick punch
Quickly fix recording errors by punching in corrections on-the-fly as you rerecord: Toggle the record button to punch in your new take only where you want it to replace the old one. Punch in and out as many times as you want.
Currently nothing is replaced, only stacked on top. Freaky when you first hear the take.
When you say "end up", should I wait for V6?
Thank you for your time.

Newbi Question: How does one create a similar page to this using APEX 3.1?

Hi,
I am trying to create a help document with screen shoots inside our APEX web application and I am hamstrung by the type of Region and Item objects available to me. When I tried to create HTML region I was limited to how much html characters I can put in the source. When I look into the item menu nothing seems to allow me to stick in large chunk of HTML code either.
A little searching on this forum and I came across this page: http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm#t
It is exactly the type of page I want to create with lots of text and screen shots and I presume that it is built within APEX? So my questions is: How did they do this? Did they use tools available within APEX or some external tool? Was all this outputted using BLOB and Htp("") and PL/SQL? I am trying hard to avoid having to do that.
I was also unable to stick in an in image into my page using instruction from http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/appdev.310/e10499/ui.htm#CBBHGJCH which left me pretty frustrated. (external amazon gif worked).
Thanks for any help,
Wayne

Wayne,
I am glad that you got images to display. I am not sure what kind of html report you want to display, there is a limit of number of characters in a region its 32767 characters, so if you want to display large html file you can create html region with no template and limit each region to 30,000 characters and create as many region as you want.
If you want to display data from any table ( as per the first url) you can create SQL reports, something like
select ename
     , deptno
     , sal
     , case
          when ename = 'SCOTT' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#us_flag.gif" alt="Image Title">'
          when ename = 'SMITH' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#chants.gif" alt="Image Title">'
          when ename = 'MARTIN' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#cloche.gif" alt="Image Title">'
          when ename = 'MILLER' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#chandelles.gif" alt="Image Title">'
          when ename = 'JONES' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#shoe.gif" alt="Image Title">'
          else '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#hallo.gif" alt="Image Title">'
     end image

How Does One Delete Cyrus User Accounts?

When I try to use cyradm, it asks for an IMAP Password, which I don't know. I suppose it's for the _cyrus account? Should I change the _cyrus password?

See the line that starts with admins in /etc/imapd.conf.. You want to login with the username and password of the mail admin account.. For example, if my admins line in /etc/imapd.conf had the user name mailadmin, I would login with the following:
sudo -u _cyrus /usr/bin/cyrus/admin/cyradm localhost --user mailadmin
The first password is because of the sudo. The second is the passwd of the mailadmin account (whatever yours is called)..
If you do not know that password, you will need to change it...
You can still not delete once in.. The ACL doesn't have delete privs by default.. Here is the command to add all privs to the mailadmin account..
sam Other\ Users/p10002 mailadmin all (this assumes you are already logged in)..
Hope this helps..

How does one create product keys when developing 3rd party Addons

HI
DOes anyone have experience in developing 3rd party addons? How do you manage liscense keys, is there a function module which can generate the key?
and buildingin a expiry date so that a customer can note hack a table entry to continue?
Thanks
Henry

woodwing seems to have a nice toolset to make it easier for sure... but I'm not sure that is the correct direction for
us. As we don't want to have to submit anything to Apple. Our needs are for internal use only and we would not be creating content for the public.
I don't follow the ePup process fully... PDF's we can load right onto the iPad. It's a real shame about flash not working as we can make some very slick flash content right out of indesign with little effort. (maybe the direction should be a Flash to HTML5 converter? Goto page commands assigned to buttons would be wonderfull if they worked but when you export the doc to PDF Acrobat complains that it is not compatible. When we export to flash it works like a charm on a PC.
Haven't found a good gudie for bookmarks yet... and if that would give us buttons on each page to move the user back and forth through the document.
