How do I get system users/groups to appear in the Workgroup Manager list?

When I open the Workgroup Manager and select the Users tab, it only shows users set up in the Workgroup Manager -- same when I browse Groups. But, I also have a couple system users/groups set up not in the workgroup manager, but through the OS's System Preference interface for Users.
Is there a way to automatically have System users appear in the Workgroup list?
I also can't add users to System groups, since the groups also won't appear in the Workgroup Manager (like adding a user to the group Admin or Staff -- default system groups).
I'd just like the option to "show System users and groups" somewhere.
Thanks.

Hi
If I understand your post correctly then launch WorkGroup Manager and select Preferences from the WorkGroup Manager Menu. Enable the Show "All Records" tab and inspector option and click OK. In the Users/Groups/Computer tab you should now see the addition of another icon - it looks like a bullseye. Select this and under the filter field selecting 'AccessControls' will show you a long list. Scroll down and select Users. Now go back to the Users tab and you should see all users visible and invisible. You’ll see the same thing for Groups.
You will see different Users and Groups depending which directory node you are in. In the LDAP node you should only see Directory and System Administrator as well as VPN MPPE Key Access User in addition to any user you have created within that node. In the local Net Info node you should see users such as Amavisd User, Clamav User, Cyrus IMAP User etc. You’ll also see UIDs and GUIDs amongst a wealth of other information if you select a user or group and select the Inspector tab.
You can modify record attribute and values as well as adding your own. You can even use WGM in the same way you would use Net Info Manager locally if you wish.

How to prevent a rdp user from mapping drives on the server ?

Hi,
User A from Domain A (using Win7 pro) is able to rdp to Server Z (Windows Server 2008) which is in Domain Z and is able to map drive.
My question is : How do I prevent User A from mapping any drive in Server Z ?
Please advise. TIA !

Hi,
if a user has access to the other share there is no way to prevent that user from mapping a drive.
However, you can remove the "map Network drive" functionality via policy, please see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms812045.aspx
That does not prevent users from mapping their drive manually using the "net use ..." command from a shell. While it is possible to restrict running of the net command, I do not recommend that (see
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/b5012142-cfe9-4b24-99b9-d7ff3b84f0f4/what-security-policy-blocks-use-of-the-net-command-for-nonadmin-users?forum=winserverGP).
( What you may consider when having Shares cross-forest, you can remove that authorized users permission from the share replacing it by DOMAIN\Domain users groups, etc. So access to the share is limited instead of using a share that a user has access to.
Please Keep in mind that even when you remove the Network drives a user can still Access the resource via UNC. )

Martin

How to set different default interactive reports for different user groups?

I'm probably overlooking an obvious solution, but how do I set different default interactive report for different user groups?
For the same interactive report, I want one set of users to see a default where the default filter is based on column X. However, another group of users doesn't have authorization to see that column so I need to set the default filter to something else for them.
Thanks

You can set a filter on a report in a URL - would that help? I think with apex 4.x you can also link to a saved default report or alternative report...

Hi Daniel,
thanks a lot for your quick response.
I went through your blog and tried implementing the same.
But in my case i have to send parallel notifications to both the states.
Please correct me if i am wrong, using if conditions in rules is allowing me to send to only one state.
I also tried the following approach
1) setting the organization units in bpm workspace
2) passing values using human task parametric roles
3) and looping the subprocess that has the humantask for the count of states.
I am able to loop the subprocess but i am not able to change the parametric role value for the next iteration of the subprocess.
Can you please help me in resolving this?
thanks,
Raju

How to manageimported users, groups, and computers in the "Magic Triangle"

How do I manage imported users, groups, and computers? Server Preferences versus Workgroup Manager? I can import users and groups with the former but it offers limited configurable options. I can view all users. groups. and computers (from active directory) in the latter, but it does not designate which accounts have been imported.
I've got a magic triangle setup, with my users, groups and computers in Windows Active Directory, and my MacOS X snow leopard server setup as a directory master, abd bound to AD as well. I wish to apply group policy like settings to my Mac OS X leopard and snow leopard clients.
Here's a summary of my goals:
1. Time Machine Storage for mac users when they logon to Mac OS X computers.
2. Automount group shares located on the Mac OS X Server.
3. Redirect user desktop and document folders to user shares either on the Mac OS X server or my Windows file server.
4. Automount a custom folder (for each user) located either on the Mac OS X server or my Windows file server.
5. Setup Mac OS X server as a printer server with quotas for all mac and windows computer users.
Goal #1 appears to be working. "need help with the rest. Thanks

I'm not sure you want to import users to use the magic triangle properly. I think importing creates 'Augmented Records' - the user icons have blue dots.
The principle is this…
Bind the server to Active Directory (AD) & create an Open Directory master (OD). This can be done from Server Admin, in the OD section, via the change button.
Then you use Workgroup Manager, set the viewing directory (tiny little globe in top left) to use LDAP records on the server - LDAPv3/127.0.0.1. Authenticate (lock on right of toolbar) add a group, then switch to to its Members tab, click + Then change the user list to show the AD records & add the AD users to the OD group. It sounds weird & wrong, but it is how it works.
You are never modifying the AD records, just assigning a group to the users in OD. It's why the clients need to bind to AD & OD.
From there you can set the Managed prefs (MCX) for the members of the OD group. It also helps to add a guest computer account to OD to assign computer prefs based on the macs that bind to the server - it's in the File menu when you select the computes list in OD.
I hope that's clear, not sure I can help with the other tasks, but they tend to fall into place once you have the complex start in place.

Copying a query from different user group

masters,
is it possible to copy a query from different user group?
if so please tell me how
thnks!

The query made from SQVI is only intended for individual use. It cannot be transported and there is no concept of Global/Standard area. To be able to transport or share the query to other users is by converting it to SAP Query wherein the source of data will also be converted to an Infoset. Remember that is done in the Standard query area. To do this, go to SQVI-> click SAP Query then go to menu Query -> Convert Quickviews... Select your Quickview queries and provide and infoset name.

Mass creation of common folders for different user groups

Hello Experts,
We are using Portal 7.0 SP12 and we have 10 different user groups created in Portal.
Based on this group structure, we need to create two common folders in each of the user's personnel documents in KM.
Is there is any way to achieve this kind of requirement ?
Can we do mass creation of these two common folders which will be assigned to all of the groups. This needs to be done in user's personnel documents and not in Public documents.
Any help in this context would be highly appreciated. points assured.
Thanks in advance,
Anil Kumar.

For every user a folder is created in userhome. One approach is to capture this folder creation event and create the folder structure you need. You need to develop a portal service which will listen to events from userhome repository.
1. Capture folder creation event for user home
2. Create the folder structure you want in this event handler
Check this documentation on how to do this.

Access control for different user groups in APEX 4.0

Hi guys,
in Apex 4.0, is there any way to use the access control page to configure access control for different user groups?
The access control page currently only has an access control list by users with 3 privileges namely, Administrator, Edit & View where Administrator has the highest access level & View the lowest. Therefore 1 user cannot have more than 1 different privilege, however if the user belongs to 2 or more different groups then we can control what access he can have in a more fine grained manner. We also want to have more than the 3 privileges given.
Can we assign different groups to different users and let them have different privileges to be configured by page, region, process or item level?
Now Apex will create 2 tables, Apex_Access_Control & Apex_Access_Setup to store the application access control mode & access control list. It will also create 3 authorization schemes "access control - administrator", "access control - edit" & "access control - view" based on the 2 tables.
Does this mean we have to change the table structures & edit the authorization schemes to suit our usage? We are reluctant to do this because if we upgrade to a newer version of Apex then we would have to merge our pl/sql coding with Apex's updated code.
How can we auto-configure more than the 3 authorization schemes in the access control page? Is there any way to achieve a finer grain of access control based on the current access control administration page given by Apex without writing it ourselves?
We are afraid that we may have missed something on Apex access control & do not want to reinvent the wheel.

Hi Errol,
to build your own application authorization scheme around the security model supplied by Apex for administration of the Apex environment would be a bad idea.
This was never intended for authorization scheme management in custom built Apex applications, it was solely intended to control access in the Apex environment overall. The API for it is not published, and making changes to it, such as adding more roles, would run the risk of breaking the overall Apex security model. It would not be supported by Oracle and Oracle would not guarantee the upwards compatibility of any changes you make in future versions of Apex.
In short, you should follow Tyson's advice and build your own structure. As he indicated, there are plenty of examples around and provided your requirements are not too complicated, it will be relatively simple.

Hi,
The first thing you need to do is define some Authentication Schemes. Have a read of this: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/user.40/e15517/sec.htm#BABEDFGB
You should create one scheme for each type of user - how the schemes are defined depends on how you define those users, typically, though, it would be some form of SQL statement.
Then, create a form (or, more likely, a report with a form so the user can see the data and click a link to edit it or click a button to create a new record). On that form, for any item except the hidden Primary Key item (which you haven't listed on the table structure?), you can select the Authorization Scheme in the Security section of the page item, report column or button etc. Once an Authorization Scheme has been applied to an object, only users that are in that Scheme can interact with that object.
For the WORK_DATE item, just use a Datepicker page item - if you create a form using a wizard, this is usually done for you, but you should check the date format used

How to set user/group in BIEE11G by the information stored in DB

Hi everyone,
I'm using OBIEE11.1.1.6,
I'd like to ask are there any way to achive this requirment:
I have stored user/group information in DB,the format as follow:
ID USER GROUP
1 A G1
2 B G2
so can we obtain the information from DB,then we set these information into BIEE security?
i.e we can access BIEE by the USER stored in DB. and the GROUP can be used in BIEE security.
thank you in advance!

Hi,
I am able to open the below link.
http://www.varanasisaichand.com/2011/09/external-table-authenticationorder-of.html
Follow the steps:
Order of Authentication:
The Oracle BI Server populates session variables using the initialization blocks in the desired order that are specified by the dependency rules defined in the initialization blocks.
If the server finds the session variable USER, it performs authentication against an LDAP server or an external database table, depending on the configuration of the initialization block with which the USER variable is associated.
Authentication against the identity store configured in Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console occurs first, and if that fails, then initialization block authentication occurs.
If you configure your external table authentication as in OBIEE 10g when the session variable USER is associated to the initialization block and LDAP server fails to get the respective user then the user's will authenticate(Identify store) over database(table).
Dont forgot to create Catalog group as we do normally in 10g
In 11g Analytics - Administration- Security - Manage Catalog groups -- (+) to add new groups and set permissions to the catalog folders w.r.t groups/users.
Please refer this link you will get more information

Award points it is useful.

Managing users, groups and shares with Mavervicks server

I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard Server to Mavericks.
In Snow Leopard, WorkGroup manager was the primary way to create shares, users and groups. Now it would seem that it is optional and in fact, I do not even see how to create a share in WorkGroup except for perhaps a group share which I'm not quite sure how to do.
For my setup, I have setup Open Directory and create a few Local Network users. DHCP is managed via my airport and the DNS is on but only for server and points to my Airport IP address.
QUESTIONS:
Should I be managing users with WorkGroup manager or server app, Whats the advantage?
I don't have user profiles (files) stored on the server they are local. That being the case, why does each user have a network folder on the server?
Thanks!

Workgroup Manager and MCX are deprecated. These technologies should only be used if you can not accomplish your tasks with Server.app and Profile Manager. If you have specific requirements that can not be satisfied in Server.app and Profile Manager you should send feedback to Apple.
So to your questions:
Should I be managing users with WorkGroup manager or server app, Whats the advantage?
I don't have user profiles (files) stored on the server they are local. That being the case, why does each user have a network folder on the server?
1: Ideally, no. Unless... You are supporting machines prior to 10.8.5 or can not find an equivalent function in Server.app and Profile Manager. There is no advantage to using it. Apple will eventually stop distributing it. It is available now for legacy support only. If you have a need for MCX management then WGM remains viable. But, ideally, you should be looking to Profile Manager.
2: This is because you created your accounts using Local Home Folder template instead of None - Services Only. The Local Home Folder template has the unfortunate side-effect of creating a user home folder on the server. I too dislike this. If you only want to use the accounts for services, then you should create the accounts using None - Services Only. By the way, it is safe to delete these home folders if you would like.
