How to prevent users of my program to coping my program using Server/Client

Hi All,
How do you get a program to send back information on the computer that it is running from which will be indeed useful
in preventing unauthorized copying of the program recognition of which computer it is on and if it isn't the right (in the beginning) on it should be installed on.
please assist.

[http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5407595] Nobody wants to steal your code. Seriously. Stop wasting time on this "+requirement+".
Yup, if I accidentally stole that code I would take it back for a refund... Unclean! Unclean!
Some useful links:
1. [Sun's Java Tutorials|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/] are really very, very good; and they're free!
2. [Sun's Internal Java Code Conventions|http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/] have become the defacto industry standard.
Seriously, why do you imagine that people want to steal your code? Does it contain the magic formulae for making wine out of water? I think not. And it's called "a grape vine".

How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory?

Hello guys
I'd like to know How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory but still keep their power of creating new folders in their personal 'my folder'?
I tried changing the 'manage privilage ---- create folder' to deny certain user accounts, but by doing so, it also stops the user from creating new folders in their 'my folder', which is not good..
I also tried going into these share folders and tried different access types such as 'change/delete', 'read', 'traverse folder' etc, but none of it work ideally. The 'change/delete' access still allows them to create new folders, 'read' access prevents creating new folders but also take away their power of saving reports..
Any thoughts on how to take away their ability to ONLY create new folders in share folder areas without affecting their other privileges?
Please advise
Thank you

Easy, on the shared folders root folder only give them 'read' or 'traverse folder' but on the the folder inside the shared folders root folder give them 'change/delete'. That means they can change anything inside those folders but not create any folders at the shared folders root level.

How to prevent user or group to use 3-tier WebI and DeskI in XI 3.1

How to prevent user or group to use 3-tier WebI and DeskI in XI 3.1
This function is enable in BOE 6.5 by using Supervisor.

Hi,
You can explicitly deny access to these applications from the CMC in BOE 3.1. Open the CMC, click on BusinessObjects Enterprise Application and then select the WebI.
From the right hand side click on the 'Net Access' section for that group and disable the 'Log on to Web-Intelligence and view this object in CMC.'
This will prevent the option of the WebI for that group.
I hope this helps you.

How to prevent user from selecting a specific printer?

Hi there
I have a MailFolder which has an ArrayList of Email objects inside it. Each MailFolder has an attribute called folderFile which is a reference to a folder in the operating system. Each Email has an attribute called parentFile which is a reference to a file in the operating system.
Now, I am trying to put printing into my application.
When I print using a normal printer like my HP Deskjet or the likes - an actual physical printer - everything works fine. But when I print using the Microsoft Office Document Image Writer, things go wierd. The following things happen;
I call myMailFolder.getFolderFile().exists() and this = false. But if I (in the debugger) make a new file pointing to the same path, .exists() = true. Also if I look in the OS, the file exists. So somehow in the job.print() this Document Image writer seems to be messing up this file reference. The same thing happens to the myEmail.getParentFile().
So to fix this, can anyone tell me how to prevent the user from selecting this printer, or can anyone tell me why this is happening only with the Document Image Writer?
Many thanks!
Rachel

I have similar problem with our printing program. I am printing Java Tables, zoom in every column in a landscape page accross multiple pages.
There are two fatal problems:
1. On Dell Latitude laptop, the HP5100 printer didn't work; I have to change the code to draw the table header with 2D graphics.
2. Crash when printing on MS document image writer, but on some computers
it works perfectly.
Any one have a good solution/same result for topic 2?
Thanks,

How to prevent users from running PRC: Transaction Import from WebADI form?

Hi,
We are 12.1.3 and trying to create a workflow to approve Project transactions coming through web ADI before they become effective. To this end, we want to prevent users from running the PRC: Transaction Import from the Web ADI.
I know that if the checkbox Automatically run transaction import is not checked, the program does not run. But we want to hide this checkbox and not allow the possibility that the program could get triggered.
To this end, we updated the BNE_INTEGRATORS_B with source='C'. This allows you to edit the integrator from Desktop Integration Manager.
UPDATE BNE_INTEGRATORS_B SET SOURCE ='C' WHERE INTEGRATOR_CODE ='PAXTTRXB'
In the 4th step, where the value for Uploader Parameters is set, we have set boolean value to No. These are the fields on the page:
Parameter Name: bne:import
Display Name: Start Transaction Upload
Data Type: Boolean
Category: Field
Default Value: Boolean Flag: No
Description: start Transaction Import Concurrent Request
Display Options: Displayed: Unchecked
Display Options: Enabled: Checked
Display Options: Required: Checked
Prompt Left: Automatically submit Transaction import
Display Type: Check Box
Maximun Size: 100
Display Size:100
Now the checkbox is not appearing for the user to check it, But the program is automatically running when you hit Upload in the WebADI.

Hi ,
Try removing the PRC: Transaction Import Program from the request group for the responsibility used by customers to submit the WebADI and then check if the program launches.

Raghavan

How to prevent users from saving and emailing intranet documents externally

Someone in our company needs to upload a pdf to our sharepoint intranet site for internal-only use. How can I prevent users from downloading it and emailing it externally?
I mean, a user could screenshot it I guess, but I need to give management a due diligence answer.

You would need to look into a reverse proxy/firewall that had the ability to block access based on content. This isn't something you can accomplish out of the box with SharePoint (even with AD RMS).

How to prevent user from creating jobs

Hi,
we need to prevent user from creating jobs on a dev enviorement. It's a 10.2.0.4 database standard on linux 64bits.
Their schema has only connect and resource roles. Is there a way to prevent them from creating jobs? In 11g it's the CREATE JOB permission, but in 10g i'm not sure how can i do this.
Thanks for any ideas!

On 10g it's probably the CREATE JOB as well.

Alternatively you could:
alter system set job_queue_processes=0

How to prevent users accessing hotspot

hi all
i have to resolved this issue your help will be benefit for me
i have users on the internal network when using wireless has restrictions on brwosing the internet but if when the receive signal from hotspot or somewhere else they connect to it and have no restrictions on their laptops so can someone explain me how to prevent them connection to the hotspot when they are inside the corporate LAN
thx

If you have a Cisco WLC you can at least do rogue access point detection with Cisco Cleanair capable AP's.
Firstly, WLC cannot stop your staff from accessing your neighbor's Wi-Fi. You also cannot "jam" or contain your neighbor's Wi-Fi signal. As what Steve said, there's no way a Cisco appliance can do. A system/network admin can, on the other hand, lock down the profiles and policy via AD what the client can/can't do with wireless.
After a few fines/written discplinary actions people should stop.
If you tell a kid "no", what do you think a kid will do? This works the same way with adults.
Take our case, this government agency decided to embrace Wi-Fi. So they got this team together and we, networks, went around installing the latest Cisco WAP in a 10-storey building (including pre- and post- site survey). Works well. During tests, clients can seamlessly roam their laptops from one end of the floor to the other. Tick of approval.
Then security came, and they put down this policy:
1. No one can use internet dongles anymore; and
2. The only sites Wi-Fi users can use over the internet are Yahoo and Google
Because of this, everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) stopped using Wi-Fi. From the CEO down to the rank-and-file. Wi-Fi usage, per month, was at (an average) 12. Users went back to the un-restricted USB internet dongles and the Wi-Fi network became a white elephant. Internet usage cost went through the roof but the Security team stood their ground and did not waver.
My story is this: The more you restrict, the more they'll find loopholes. Every corporation is now being proactive and are implementing BYOD.

How to Prevent User for Multiple click on form Submit button ??

Hi,
Is there any easy solution rather than AJAX or any HARD Solution.
to prevent user from being submit for only once...
So database record remain consistent rather than redundant.
if any JAVASCRIPT SOLUTION IT WOULD BE BETTER ONE.

Use the disabled property, set it to true and then submit the form programmatically.
<html>
<head>
<script>
function validate()
     var textfield = document.getElementById('textfield');
     var submitButton = document.getElementById('submitbutton');
     var mainForm = document.getElementById('mainform');
     if ( textfield.value.length == 0 )
          alert("Validation Failed");
          return false;
     submitButton.disabled = true;
     alert("The button has been disabled, going to submit now");
     mainform.submit();
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="mainform" action="#" method="GET">
<input type="text" value="" id="textfield"/>
<input type="submit" value="Try Me!" id="submitbutton" onclick="return validate();" />

CE10 how to prevent user from view hostrical instance

hi,
We are currently using CE10. One of our user used search functionality in enterprise to search for reports start with 'employee' and it came back with all the crystal reports on the server that started with employees, even the one the user doesn't have access to. My greatest concern about this is that users can view historical instance and it is sensitive data. Does anybody know whether or not this is a bug in CE10? Is there a patch/fix for this? Is there any configuration change that I can make to
prevent users from being able search all the reports on the server rather just their own reports? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Susan

hi,
I have an EVERYONE group with limited access(view object), and EVERYONE group is added to each folder with NO ACCESS. If I revoke view object(explicitly denied) privilege from EVERYONE group, do I still need to remove EVERYONE group from each folder? When I'm at folder level in CMC, I see EVERYONE GROUP added, but when I tried to remove the EVERYONE GROUP, the EVERYONE group is not an option for removal. What am I missing?
Thanks for your help!

How to prevent user from disabling plugins like censureblock or adblock?

How to prevent users to create their own private list ?

Hello,
Is there a way to prevent users to create their own private list ?
Or to perform their own queries ?
Thanks for your help.

Any list or search will always query the database regardless of volume. For example, a user has access to just 1 account record. This record could be one of 10 million other account records. To allow the user to see this record, the entire account pool will be queried. That's where indexes help and queries are really fast.
Turning off search is not the solution. Ensuring queries are optimized is the solution. For example, manager visibility always slows down the search because the nature of a manager visibility search requires compex search patterns. So you could turn off manager visibility for your company and use alternate means like books. Manager visibility search is a feature that's primarily used by small-to-medium-business (SMBs). Large enterprises should never use it.

How to prevent user from deactivating the adobe software

I am working in a training center, We've got 20 machines here installed with Adobe CS3 production premium (not using network license). The problem now i foresee is the software deactivate problem, i found user can deactivate the adobe software even they dont have XP administrator rights.
And what i know about activation of adobe software is that there is a limit of activation count of 30 tries and after that i have to call the adobe technical support for help.
Is there any way that i can prevent user from deactivating the software in terms of registry modification or what other kinds of method.
Thanks
Ivan

If you have 20 machines I assume you have a volume license, which does not require de/activation anyway.
If you have 20 separate licences... well, the only thing I can think of is to block the Adobe Activation domains of adobe.com through the firewall of your network. You should probably contact Adobe directly for more specific info.
