How to add external users?

Hi, I have a sharepoint 2013 site and I got the users from an active directory, now I have to add external users but I can't add these to the active directory, how can I do it? I have imagined two ways:
1. create a local active directory in my machine, add users and import them from central administration (I don't know if this is possible)
2. add form web authentication and create the users in it.
there is any other way? what do you recommend?

How to add external user in sharepoint using infopath web part

hi,
what i am trying to achieve is,
1. Create an infopath web part which will take email id of external user as input(ex: [email protected]).
2. Take an email id of that user into infopath form and add that to sharepoint group.
3. Now that newly added user must be able to login in to sharepoint using his email id.
How could i achieve this?
If redirect me to example or screen shots then it will be better to understand.

Out of the box you can not use email address and passwords to authenticate, for this you would need to create a custom authentication mechanism
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Claims-Walkthrough-51beedc5
or just google it:
https://www.google.be/search?hl=en&q=sharepoint+custom+authentication+provider&btnG=Search&meta=&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
Once this is implemented, you need to create custom code in you form, to call this new API and register the user, but 2nd step depends on how you do first.

How to add multiple users to a role in ECC 6.0

How to add multiple users (say 1000) to a role in ECC 6.0?

Hi
You can actually add multiple users to a role using transaction SU01. From SU01, use the menu Environment->Mass Changes.
Here you can manually add the users, select them by address or authorisation data. Once you have your user list, you can then add or remove roles and/or profiles.
Secondly , You can use SU10 to do mass changes to multiple users including role assignments per logical systems
Also check the following link:

I hope this should do it

How to add a user defined HTTP header field?

Hi, everyone!
I want to add a user defined HTTP header field to a HTTP
response header.
I use the following statements in testHeader.jsp
response.addHeader("myheader", "123");
response.sendRedirect("middleHeader.jsp");
in middleHeader.jsp,
out.print(request.getHeader("myheader"));
But the output in middleHeader.jsp is null!
How to add a user defined HTTP header field to a HTTP
response header? Are there some sample codes?
Cheers,
George

the send redirect actually creates a new request (through the client) and thus a new response
thus the headers you set in the response are gone for the next request/response
You can try servletDispatcher.forward

How to add a user to the wheel group?

How to add a user to the wheel group in leopard?

In Leopard, users can be added to system groups using 'dscl'. For example, while logged into an "admin" account, the command below can be entered using "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "Terminal.app" to add a user "username" to the "wheel" group:<pre>
sudo /usr/bin/dscl . -append /groups/wheel GroupMembership username</pre>
If you prefer a GUI, "Workgroup Manager.app", included with the Leopard version of the "Server Admin Tools" can be used.

How to add a user to an existing group????

Can't seem to find how to add a user to an existing group (staff). I am trying to share data (rw) between my admin account (root) and a development user. On any other UNIX system I would just add the user name in the /etc/group file & logout/login in. It don't work here!
Suggestions??
thanx
mt

OS X doesn't use /etc/groups. This file is present but does nothing AFAIK.
Leopard uses directory services to handle groups and users.
membership in groups with GID>500 can be handled from GUI in system preferences->accounts. other groups can be handled from terminal with dscl (directory services command line). do man dscl for details.
to add a user to a group you'd do
sudo dscl . append /groups/groupname GroupMembership username
However, there should be no need to do it with "staff". every user with an account on your computer is a member of staff by default.

How to add iphone user agent in safari browser running on windows xp

How to add new user agent (iphone user agent) to safari browser(version 3) which is running on windows xp os .
thanks in advance

UPDATE: We were able to further identify the root cause of the problem to be when anonymous access is turned off and the subweb is set up to use basic and integrated authentication (IIS settings). To test this, we removed integrated authentication (leaving only basic authentication in place) and the problem was fixed. However, this is not a viable solution as we need to use integrated authentication (for various other reasons).

How to add external images onto a control and still be able to resize

Hello,
I'm a LabVIEW newbie. I'm trying to customize the appearance of my VIs, and one of the things I like to do is to import external image and paste it onto the faceplate of the gauge indicator. I've followed the instruction in the Labview application note using the control editor and was able to paste the picture into indicator. But when I use it in the front panel and resize the gauge indicator, the image (added as a decoration) doesn't resize together with the indicator. My questions are:
1. How to add external images onto a control/indicator and still be able to resize the image automatically when I resize the control/indicator?
2. How to "add" a new part to an existing control/indicator? It looks like I can only customize/modify the existing parts of the control/indicator in the control editor.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

1/ Do not use the image as an added decoration. Instead replace part of the control with the image. Tis is illustrated in the attached vi : the arrow was pasted as a decoration, and also used to replace the slide cursor. Changing the control size do not affect the decoration, but changes the cursor.
2/ What do you mean by adding new parts to a control. We have just seen that it was possible to modify a control. Now, if you want to include additionnal functionnality, that's another story. You can replace parts of the control, and this can give interesting results. You can edit a slide control, and replace the numeric indicator by another control, including a numeric indicator, that you can replace with etc...
But there, it still the same info displayed under different forms. If you want to have several independant functions on the same control, such as a string display and a boolean and a numeric indicator, then that's a job for a cluster...

Add external users to WAAD Tenant with Graph API

Hello,
is there a way to add an external user to my tenant in WAAD using Graph Api. In Azure Portal when I'm adding new user there are several options (Hotmail acc, User from existing AD) and those are the actions I'm looking for in Graph Api. Is there any way
to do that programmatically?
Thanks,
Andrija

Hi,
I am not sure you could use Graph Api to add external user.
The API only provides operations on objects inside the AD of your tenant.

How to add a user when Muse site is uploaded without Business Catalyst?

Hello,
I have uploaded a Muse site for my client on her own ftp server. But how can I add her as a "inbrowser editor", so that she can manage the site when needed? Or is it only possible to add a user when I upload the site on the Business Catalyst host?
Thanks!

Hi,
The June 2014 update to Muse enables In-Browser Editing for Muse sites hosted with third-party (non-Adobe) providers.
