How to disable Guest User Login

All of a sudden I have a "Guest User Account" on my login screen. I never enabled it, and it wasn't there before. I checked my Users preferences and it clearly shows the Guest User Account is disabled (nothing checked). Any ideas how to remove it from my login screen? Thanks.

No, that is not enabled. It is for my iPhone but not my MacBook. Any other ideas?

How to disable other users from changing the status

Hi,
The status entry field can be changed irrespective of ownership in Documents.
I was able to change the status on the document created by other user.
Example: The status of document was In-Work. The document owner was X. But I was able to change it to Inspection Check.

What's a ASPNET user and how to disable this user by CMD ?

Additionally , if I disable ASPNET user ,what will affects on Windows 7 and Windows XP ?
Thank you !

back before IIS 6 or 7(I forgot), this ASP.NET user run ASP.NET application. If you have above IIS 6 or 7 you can simply delete this account
but first, just confirm there is no user using this account to develop ASP.NET in your environment
you can also reinstall your .NET framework to remove this user account
this is the details

How to check whether user login in SNC mode or Non - SNC Mode

Hi
When SNC is enabled system will accept secure network connections. But,It is up to the user to login in SNC mode or NOT.
Can any one let me know How to check whether user login in a SNC mode / Non-SNC mode?. Is it only through SU01?.
Is there any other possibility?. where to check if user login through RFC connections?.
Please correct me if i am wrong.
Regards
Srinivas P.

Hi,
Where to check if user login through RFC connections?
Check T-Code SM04 on every instance. In the column Type you can see what kind of login has been used (GUI, RFC, Plugin, System).
But,It is up to the user to login in SNC mode or NOT.
Depends. Check these [parameters|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/19/164442c1a1c353e10000000a1550b0/content.htm]:

How to restrain the user login portal once, in the same time??

Hi

to reduce portal loading
How can I restrain the user login portal once, in the same time???
Which attributs in Identity Manager or amconsole I can do it to restrain the user ??
tks

Does your portal support anonymous access? If so, make sure you are using the authlessanonymous mode. This mode only creates one session that is shared for all anonymous users. This is much more efficient than anonymous access, which creates a session for each anonymous user.
I have no other recommendation for limiting users to a single login. In general, web applications do not behave like this. What if a user closes their browser without logging out? Does the user have to wait until the session times out in order to log back in again?
The same thing is true for users that are mobile. If a user leaves their office without logging out and then attempts to log in with a laptop in the conference room, then access will be denied in your implementation. Users do not expect this type of limitation being built into the system.
If you are having problems scaling, then you need to look at your architecture and perhaps add some more resources. Also, make sure you are making efficient use of the authlessanonymous access mode as stated above.

How to retrieve guest user account backup

I have an iMac and a time capsule. A large number of pictures were loaded into I Photo in the guest account of my iMac. I cannot now find these pictures as I understand that guest accounts are wiped clean each time the guest account is lodged out from.
Given that we did not log out from the quest account for a couple of days, i am hopeful that the guest account was backed up by time capsule. I cannot find the guest account on the backed up time capsule. Does anyone have any suggestions whether TC backs up the guest account and if so, how can I locate it in TC.
Thanks very much. David

Did you have the main account logged in as well as guest at the time? Do you have TM setup in the guest account?
It is very unlikely TM backed it up. If it did simply mount the sparsebundle in finder and go through all the folders until you find the guest user account and check if there is anything there. If not sorry it was never backed up.
The only solution I can see if to use a recovery software for the camera. Whatever source of the photos was.. stop using the memory card in that camera now.. use the recovery software as the files will be there until overwritten for the next lot of pictures.
Pondini has all the info for recovery of files from TM.
See Q15 here. http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
There is a section for iphoto.. but IMHO it won't be backed up.

How to reset guest user

Hi,
I'm new to lion. I tried to manipulate the guest user account so it would function as a guest user (deleting all the private stuff after log out) but keeping my preferences like dock, desktop, grid settings, ...
I used this link: http://www.michaelsmac.com/modules.php?file=article&name=News&sid=394
but something went wrong. (Later I discovered this was posted prior to Lion so this could be the problem)
The result is that on start up of the user account it also shows my terminal open and the last webpage I visited (the link above).
Quiting these and log out/ log in again does not resolve this problem.
I did the backup like sugested in the link but I'm not able to use it
I can see it in system/library/
Anyone can help me on how to recover the original guest settings without having to reinstall the complete OSX ?
Many thanks !

Why can't you use the "backup" as suggested?
The second and third lines of the recovery hint will likely need sudo appended in front of the commands.

How to delete Guest User Account

I just got my Mac book Pro and I'm new to Mac. I created a Guest User Account and now I want to delete it. But the - (minus) option is grey out. How can I delete the Guest User Account? I have two accounts listed right now. The Admin and the Guest Account. Thanks for your help.
p.s. I just found out I couldn't even open the folders under the Guest directory! How come? I am the Admin and should be able to do that. What did I do wrong? Help!!!

I should also say that sometime in the future you might have a problem with something, and one of the first things you should test is, do you have the same problem in another account, so having a Guest Account is a good thing.
You just log in as Guest and test to see if you have the same problem. So it might be a good idea to leave it active, for it takes up very little space. I always have more than one Account, and this new Guest Account sounds good to me, I like the idea that everything is deleted after log off.

Disabling guest user in prod

what are the impacts of disabling/deleting default guest user in BO XI R2 SP1 in a Unix solaris environment.

You require the "Guest" account for the following:
You have clients logging onto your Enterprise deployment using the "Guest" account.
You have some custom Java, .NET or COM Report Application Server (RAS) SDK applications - likely migrated from RAS 9, Crystal Enterprise 10 Embedded, or Crystal Reports Server XI Embedded, that uses what's called "unmanaged reporting" (i.e., RPT files not published to Enterprise, but copied to the OS file structure).
You will have to ask your IT deployment team whether either applies to you.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda
