How to kill a single user in BO XI 3.0

Hello,
I thought there was a SDK for killing single users on a system. Can someone help me out again on where to find this procedure.
thanks
Thierry

[Recent news this method is supported in XI 3.x |http://johnnyye.com/blog/2008/08/12/business-objects-xi-session-removal-tool]
to note if you have business objects enterprise you should have a CPU or named user license (if not contact your account rep), if you have edge or crystal reports server then those are your options

  • How to get to single user mode

    I aquired an old power mac G4 with an old account with 10.3.9 and an old administrator account.  It seems that procedures to remove the account start in Single user mode.  The computer won't start when holding down system - s.  The drive clicks a few times but the display goes to sleep from no video signal.  So How can I get to single user mode when the usual way don't work?

    The hard drive's directory may be dead, or it may have last been booted into Mac OS 9.  IF you are lucky, they did install Mac OS X on it, and that can be determined either through an Option key boot, or through an X key boot on a wired (not wireless) USB Apple compatible keyboard.   X key booting will only work if the X operating system is on the same partition, whereas Option key boot will reveal the Startup Manager, where you select the drive and hit the right pointing arrow for the drive partition that has Mac OS X.   Note this will not work on an original PCI PowerMac G4.   You may also need to replace the PRAM battery, a 1/2 AA 3.6V battery from Radio Shack before any boot sequence will work.  Once it boots into Mac OS X, Single User Mode should work.

  • How to implement a single user in mutiple AD groups?

    Hi all,
    I need your help in achieving the following requirement.
    1. Security should be applied based on a DeptName from DeptTable For example Department Name= A , Department Name =B, Department Name =C.
    2. Also security should be based on Officer Indicator from EmployeeTable= Yes or No.
    3. Employee Salary information is grouped into EmpFacts in presentation folder. Only a few users who belong to the group which has access to the folder, should be able to see this folder when they login.
    (DeptAOfficerYesEmpFactYesSuper. All the groups which has EmpFactYes are given permissions to EmpFact Folder in presentation Folder)
    4. On top of these all the users are classified into Mega and Super users. Mega users should have read only access to dashboards and Super users should be able to edit the dashboards. ( All the groups which are classified as Super are given access to "Edit Dashboard" in Presentation Catalog )
    NOTE: As we are deploying our rpd in the shared environment we are not supposed to use SESSION VARIABLES.
    TO achieve the above requirement we have created AD groups such that DeptAOfficerYesEmpFactYesSuper , DeptAOfficerNoEmpFactNoSuper and so on. By this method all the permutation and combinations will result in AD groups.
    We know that this approach will lead to severe maintenance issues and hence looking for other alternatives.
    We are now planning to have only DeptA, DeptB, DeptC groups and use them in conjunction with three other groups ( Officer, EmpFact, Super).
    Can we add a single user in all these user groups ?
    Kindly let me know if you need any clairty on this.
    Your help is highly appreciated.

    Yes and no..meaning a user with just 1 group assigned will retrieve less data then a user with multiple groups assigned, so yes, more data to select will affecct your performace (a bit), but no, the use of multiple security groups by itself won't affect performance..
    The use of multiple security groups will reflect in the use of an IN or a subquery in your logical query, OBI will determine the best way in each case and your database (and statistics) will determine the best physical query and therefore query performance.

  • How can I secure single user mode

    I have a macbook pro, I would like to disable single user mode.
    thanks,
    Lal.

    To boot from the DVD, insert it, then restart and hold down the C key until the Apple logo appears on screen. If your MBP came with Snow Leopard installed, you must use the gray DVD that was in the box. If it came with an earlier version of the OS, you can use either the gray DVD or the retail disc you used to upgrade. In either case, don't run the Installer; follow the directions in the link above.

  • Upgraded to Leopard and lost disks...forgot the admin password. anyone know how to reset in single-user mode?

    I received some instructions but they did not work. Does anyone know how to reset this?

    1 - Does it boot into Leopard?
    2 - Does it have any important data on it that is not backed up elsewhere?
    It it boots into Leopard you could continue using it and hope that you find your Leopard install disks later or discover some other way to overcome the lost password.
    If it is fully backed up or has no important data on it you could install Tiger.

  • How adobe killed the single greatest extensions company for dreamweaver

    Interakt Online created the best server side php tools integrated into Dreamweaver for dynamic website creation.
    Adobe bought them out, had one more release of Dreamweaver, with the Interakt tools with extraordinarily, terrible support.
    Shortly after to be discontinued.
    What adobe Dreamweaver has become, is a skin of its former self. Literally.
    Adobe has nothing to do with innovation or creation, its a company for shareholders.
    Enjoy the new splash screen.
    I wish those Interakt guys would come back and make Dreamweaver useful again.

    Change is always hard. Most of us humans are distinctly conservative by nature, and dislike change in the status quo, because at that point we are forced to step out of our comfort zone.
    But the universe, the world, society, software all change irregardlessly so.
    Even if Macromedia would still exist, there is no telling whether DW would have been developed and supported differently. For all we know, it could have been worse, and the software could have been kiiled off years ago (which is what MM was planning to do with Fireworks at the time).
    We can only control about 15% of what is going on in our lives. I have no control at all over Adobe's silly CEOs and their (in my opinion) anti-consumer digital serfdom. So I therefore chose to work with different IDEs and software other than Adobe's apps in the last two years (except in the classes I teach, over which I have only limited control ;-). And I discovered that there is a plethora of excellent alternatives out there.
    If you feel DW is no longer useful to you: invest some time in exploring alternatives! Invest your energy in a positive manner by expanding your own knowledge, and your personal strength.
    Accept, and release. And move on to new interesting experiences and challenges.

  • Resetting the Admin password in single user mode

    Ok, my friend bought an old Imac from someone she went to school with with OS 10.4.2 on it. It works fine except that she can not install any programs because there is an admin password that she does not know. She asked the person she bought it from, he says he doesn't even remember setting a password. Normaly with this issue id just pop in the install disk and reset it from there, except neither of them have the install disk, and my install disk is to current for the machine. Does anyone know how I can reset the admin acount using single user mode commands? I can do it on my Mac Book pro but it doesn't seem to work the same way on 10.4. Please help!
    EDIT: It is a Power PC G3 if that helps.

    Message was edited by: CartooNxHerO
    You do not need to delete "the users home folders". Nor do you need to delete the netinfo database. Here are two proceedures:
    Change Password
    Mac OS X:
    Changing or resetting an account password via GUI:
    Resetting a user's password
    Resetting the original administrator account password
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106156
    You do not have a CD/DVD
    Changing password from single user mode:
    You can also change the administrator's password from single user mode or create a new administrator account.
    You need to get into single use mode for steps one and two that are listed below.
    This page will tell you how to get into single user mode.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    Basically, you hold down the command-s key then powering on your machine. The command key has a little apple symbol on the lower left. It is between the alt/option key and the space bar. On a PC keyboard, it will be the windows key, I think.
    1) You can change the password on an account. ( Do you know Unix. You are in a Unix single user console. ) The setup commands you need should be listed on the screen. For Mac OS 10.4.11, the commands are:
    # Type the follow two instructions to access the startup disk in read/write:
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    # Start up some utility processes that are needed.
    sh /etc/rc
    # You will probably need to press the return key once the system stops typing.
    # To find out the users on the system type, use the list command. The l is a lower case L:
    ls /Users
    # One of these accounts will be the administrator.
    # Pick one of the users which I'll call a-user-name and type it in this command:
    passwd a-user-name
    # and enter the new user password. You need six characters.
    # You will need to enter your password twice. Your typing will not show up on the screen just
    # press enter when you complete the typing.
    # For cryptic information on these commands try:
    man ls
    man passwd
    The root account isn't enabled by default. I am not sure if changing the password on root will enable it.
    2) Get the Mac to set up an additional administrative account. You can then change the password on your old account.
    Start with your computer power off. Hold down command-s. Power on your computer.
    Type in the following:
    The first two commands will depend on your release of Mac OS X. Look at what is typed out in the console to determine the exact format.
    # Type the follow two instructions to access the startup disk in read/write. Press return after each command.
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    cd /var/db
    pwd
    #List all files. The l is a lower case L.
    ls -a
    #The move command acts as a rename command in this format.
    mv -i .applesetupdone .applesetupdone.old
    reboot
    Once you've done that the computer reboots and it's like the first time you used the machine. Your old accounts are all safe. From there you just change all other account passwords in the account preferences!!
    Limnos adds detailed explainations:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8441597#8441597

    You will need to scroll down to see this post. Search for applesetupdone

    Once you have a new administrative account, you can change the password of your old administrative account

  • Can't exit single user mode

    I frequently start in single user mode to run fsck -fy on my startup disk
    and after running fsck -fy, I exit single user mode typing exit or logout.
    Now after running fsck -fy, typing exit or logout the single user mode remains
    and returns a line: -sh-2.05b#. I’m not adept enough to use single user mode
    other than for running fsck -fy so I am stuck on how to end the single user mode. TIA

    Some stories have happy endings and this is one of them.
    After a little head scratching I dig out the Tiger install DVD
    and repaired the permissions on the problem HD partition.
    Reboot to the problem disk, enter correct network settings, and
    now we even have a web to surf. Also we can exit single user mode OK.

  • How to restrict the all access ? Single user mode....

    I am doing export/import of schema objects from Windows to Oracle. How to make sure when I do the export in the migration database no one else is modifying the data. Is there any single user mode so that I can be sure of only one connection while exporting?
    Oracle 10g R2 on Windows Server.
    Thank you,
    Smith

    Perhaps you are not familiar with the concept of multi-version read consistency.
    No one can see that which is not committed and reads can never be blocked.
    If you want a system where no one can see things kill their sessions and do a STARTUP RESTRICT.

  • How do i repair my hard drive in single user mode when disk is full?

    Hi there Apple Community!
    I have an old Macbook Pro 17" with an upgraded 500GB harddrive and 4GB memory. I'm running Mac OSX Lion.
    Was hoping you could help me out.  THis is the situation:
    Long story short I spilt wine on my macbook and the screen went a bit blobby. Switched it off for a few days, removed the battery etc. etc. Opened it up cleaned out as much of the wine as possible, but unfortunately some of it came in behind the LCD, so now the screen has a nice red stain.  Obviously I'm not going to try to clean that out of the LCD. 
    My Macbook Pro still worked for a few days after that, but then my harddrive gave up.  I booted in the Recovery HD menu, verified the drive and I got the error "Keys out of order - This disk needs to be repaired, click Repair Disk." I attempted to repair the disk but got the error "Keys out of order - Disk Full Error - The volume could not be repaired".
    Unfortnately of this 500GB I only have about 7GB free on it, as I have a huge iPhoto and iTunes library. I did make a TIme Machine backup of my user directory, but not the system files.  I don't really want to do a clean install because:
    1) I'm paranoid that there's something I did not fully back up
    2) I don't want to have to download the whole Mac OSX Lion again. I should have made a USB bootable backup when I had the chance.  I don't have access to a broadband connection.
    What I feel are my viable options, are as follows:
    1) I did buy a replacement internal 500GB harddrive, so I can probably try to make an image of the hard drive to this new drive, but not sure how. I believe it's through the Disk Utility with the "New Image" option but not sure how to go from there.
    2) Start up in Single User Mode and delete some unnecessary files and re-attempt to run the fschk -fy utility again (I tried this earlier and got the same Disk Full Error).  - the problem with this is, I'm not familiar with the command line and have no clue how to delete files.  I don't know my way around Unix.
    3) I can also probably attempt to make a Ghost Image or Acronis Image of the failed drive to this new drive, but not sure if Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image will be able to read this HFS drive - I believe it's possible as it's a simple hard drive clone. 
    If you can guide me in the best option - probably there is a better solution than my proposed ones above, I appreciate any feedback and comments you might have!

    hi Baltwo,
    So I ended up copying my user folder to another harddrive. I managed to download the whole osx lion again, reinstalled, and recovered my home folder using this discussion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1428
    I have managed to get all my files back. My iTunes library works fine, but my iPhoto library when I open it, get the following error:
    iPhoto cannot be opened because of a problem.

    I've done an Apple Software Update but it didn't find an update for iPhoto.
    One thing to note is, this library was originally created on iLife 08, upgraded to '09 and it stayed on that version. It hasn't een upgraded to iLife '11.  It worked fine on my previous install of OSX Lion.  How do I recover the library without upgrading to '11 ?

  • TS1543 my mac wont stop at single user it continues to root, how can i get to single user to enter info needed to reset password

    I my mac wont recognise my password, i have tried to reset password using single user but my mac wont stop at single user it just continues to root, how do i get it to stop at single user so i can add info needed to reset password?

    Are your sure that wasn't a Verbose boot (Cmd-V) you were trying? That would go on to a regular boot.
    Try a PRAM Reset, then try the single user, Cmd-S, at the startup chime. For the PRAM Reset, hold down Option - Cmd - P - R all together until it chimes a total of three times, then let go to finish booting.

  • 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.

  • NAC Guest Server, How to change the password for a single user?

    We have a NAC Guest Server which creates a complex password for all new users created.
    We would like to have normal/simple password for a single user. How can I get this done on a NAC Guest Server.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You can setup 3 different flavours of passwords:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/nac/guestserver/configuration_guide/20/g_guestpol.html#wp1063249.
    a. Username Policy 1 - Email address as username
    Use the guest's email address as the username. If an overlapping account with the same email address exists, a random number is added to the end of the email address to make the username unique. Overlapping accounts are accounts that have the same email address and are valid for an overlapping period of time.
    b. Username Policy 2 - Create username based on first and last names
    Create a username based on combining the first name and last name of the guest. You can set a Minimum username length for this username from 1 to 20 characters (default is 10). User names shorter than the minimum length are padded up to the minimum specified length with a random number.
    c. Username Policy 3 - Create random username
    Create a username based upon a random mixture of Alphabetic, Numeric or Other characters. Type the characters to include to generate the random characters and the number to use from each set of characters.
    Note: The total length of the username is determined by the total number of characters included.

  • How can I tell if an install DVD is a family pack or a single-user?

    I'm now running Tiger, and want to install Leopard. I can't go to Snow Leopard because my processor is powerPC -- not Intel.
    I have purchased a new Leopard install DVD from a seller on Ebay. I paid for a family pack. It does not say "family pack" anywhere on the package, which is sealed in clear plastic. I asked the seller why it didn't show "family pack" anywhere visible on the package. He "guaranteed" that it is a family pack, not a single user license.
    I've looked at a family pack DVD for Tiger and for Snow Leopard. Both show "family pack" on the exterior of the package, but I don't see anything on the face of the DVD.
    Is there anyway that I can confirm whether the seller is being truthful? If I open the package, and it doesn't show anything on the face of the DVD . . . . how can I tell if it really is a family pack?
    Thanks for your help.

    My Leopard came pre-installed, so I don't have a retail package to examine. However, doing a google image search for family packs, I couldn't find any obvious difference on the outside or inside between the two. Here, for example, is someone who says he bought a family pack and photos of the inside of the box including the DVD:
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/robertnelson/2211524221/
    Notice, no "family pack" to be seen anywhere.
    The only difference, as I understand it, between the family pack and the single-user pack is the number of license you pay for. If you paid (a third-party) for a family pack license, then I feel you can in good conscience install the OS on up to five computers in your house or that otherwise meet the terms of use for a family pack. The OS will not seek out duplicate serial numbers on your network or anything like that (even single-user installs rely on the honor system) so you will be fine.

Maybe you are looking for
