How to verify RFC user?

I have maintained RFC desctination in SM59.
In my application I make RFC calls using these RFC destinations. Before I use this application, I need to make sure that the logon information(user and password) for the RFC destination is correct.
Is there a way to do it programmatically in ABAP?

Hi Shakir,
I think, your RFC would be called from other system. So you need logon info. of your SAP system.
THis logon info. would be used in the 3rd party system, which is going to call your RFC.
So to test SAP User ID & pwd, simply logon with the details & verify.
Please let me knw, if this is not the requirement.
Best regards,
Prashant

How to verify the user information pass by the form with a stored procedure?

Hi,
I would like to know how to verify user information pass by the form with a stored procedure.
I want make a portal which accepts to new user registration, but I want verify the new user's informations (like the name don't contain a number etc).
Thanks for your help

jla

Hi Samson,
You can use the UI API to do this. You can catch the form_ADD event and then validate the input from the users. You can even block the event from completing (and stop the document from being added) if your code finds some incorrect data using the bubbleEvent functionality.
I don't have one specific example to show you, but if you look at some of the SDK samples (for example C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Samples\COM UI\VB.NET\02.CatchingEvents) to see how to work with events, you can then create your own validation to ensure the users data is valid.

How to verify if user already exists in MySQL database using JSP?

Hi, I am trying to create a website that allows users to register and then login. All regsitration details are stored in a MySQL table and I am attempting to have a java bean check that a new user does not already exist by looking up the username. However, I cannot get this to work, the bean is allowing anyone through. I believe there may be a problem with my while loop as the bean checks through the stored usernames in the database. Any suggestions appreciated thanks. See my code below:[
code]package foo;

I tried reading into prepared statements, and although I now understand their basics, I still have no idea why I'm getting this error?

RFC User s

How is create RFC users ? thru Sm59 ? Su01?
Thanks

No no no! Alex's posts are much better and older.
He survived the great depression of '02 while I was still auditing R/2 systems for a company which survived the other depression...
There are many sources of information from which you can gain SAP and SAP security information.
The better ones (in my opinion) for gaining SAP Security knowledge are those which help you to help yourself without making you dependent on them (though SAP can be addictive because of it's crispy internal business security logic - which makes it fascinating even for accountants...:-)
Some of the best ones (in my opinion) to search:
- The system itself.
- SAP Service Marketplace (OSS)
- http://help.sap.com
- SDN (here you have an advantage when asking or answering questions, in that SAP themselves are participants)
- using google or other "SAP" sites with knowledgable contributers, such as SAPfans (there are many such sites; the ones which will give you a sustainable solution are better than those which give you a shortcut).
Last, but by no means least, you can gain invaluable information from questions, and folks who follow-up on answers (and question them as well) - like you do George
A technical discussion forum takes 2 to tango: questions and answers.
From your recent posts, I have learnt that I should have more courage to ask questions.
Thank you George,

How to select which RFC USERS have been accessed my host ?

Hi, guru
how to select which RFC USERS have been accessed my host ?
or how to record the RFC users's trace ?
because the auditor wants to know it.
Best regards,

how to select which RFC USERS have been accessed my host ?
did you check ST03N->User profile ?
or how to record the RFC users's trace ?
Check ST01 for system trace.

1. Current work flow :-In web site the user have to register themselves in the web site and enters his details along with user id, password and email id. Once user
is registered then he will login with his user id and password. The user id is picked from login control and that set in “SPWeb.CurrentUser” as user id and system uses "Membership.ValidateUser" method to Authenticate user for login.
2. New Requirement: we would like to facilitate the user to login with Email id as well as user id.
Problem:
We replaced "Membership.ValidateUser" method to our own method to Authenticate user with email id/user id and password.
When user is login with user id and password it is working successfully but in the case of email id and password –“the email id is picked from user control and set as
"HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name" but we are not getting “SPWeb.CurrentUser” and it shows null value.”
We are able to get user id from database using email id of user. Please help us how we can set user id in "SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser".

Password inconsistancy issue with RFC users in ECC 6.0 System after upgrade

Hi,
We have upgraded the system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0, but facing the password inconsistancy problem for RFC users. We have set the parameters like "login/min_password_lng" as "8" and "login/password_downwards_compatibility" as "3" & RFC user Type is "system". Could you please suggest how to resolve the password inconsistancy issue.

Hi Chandan,
you need to run the txn. SECSTORE and there it will shows you all the RFCs that have inconsistent passwords. Please maintain the correct passwords there.
In case the existing passwords are no longer acceptable due to new security policies as per the new SAP version, you will have to change the password from SU01.

Shitij

How to restore a user's calendar agenda

How to restore a user's Calendar agenda
When you delete users from LDAP and then re-add them to a Calendar node, they
will be assigned new nscalxitemid's.
However, if you have not run any of the tools for removing these
"orphan" entries, the old
nscalxitemid's should
still exist in the Calendar database.

To restore a user's agenda from the Calendar database, use the following steps:

<OL>
<LI>Use ldapsearch to
locate the user entries for the user who you are trying to restore.

Depending on what version of Directory Server you have, the
ldapsearch command line
utility will be in one of the following locations:

(Directory Server 3.x): 
ServerRoot/bin/slapd/server

(Directory Server 4.x): 
ServerRoot/shared/bin
To search for the user with the UserID "bbunny," the syntax for
ldapsearch would be as follows:

ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w password
-b o=netscape.com uid=bbunny | more (All on one line)

It is also possible to dump the output of this command into a file, as in the
following example:

ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w password
-b o=netscape.com uid=bbunny > bbunny.txt (All on one line)

The LDAP entry for a Calendar user would appear something as follows (Note:
 The Calendar attribute, nscalxitemid
is in bold, and the ID number
is in red):

dn: uid=bbunny,o=netscape.com
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
objectclass: nsLicenseUser
objectclass: mailRecipient
objectclass: nsCalUser
givenname: Bugs
sn: Bunny
cn: Bugs Bunny
uid: bbunny

mail: [email protected]

nscalflags: 0
nscallanguageid: 0
nscalsysopcanwritepassword: 0
nscalpasswordrequired: 1
nscaldefaultnotereminder: 0:0
nscaldefaultreminder: 0:10
nscaldefaulttaskreminder: 0:0
nscaldisplayprefs: 4:480:1080:1:30:190:2
nscaloperatingprefs:
0:255:0:0:0:0:0:1440:0:1440:0:0:1440:0:1440:0:0:1440:0:14
40:0:0:1440:0:1440:0:0:1440:0:1440:0:0:1440:0:1440:0:0:1440:0:1440
nscalrefreshprefs: 1:60
nscalnotifmechanism: 1
nscaltimezone: 0

In the line nscalxitemid: 10000:00257
, "10000" is the node number and
"00257" is the
calID number.
The number you will need to change is the
calID number,
"00257".

<LI>From the /unison/bin
directory for Calendar, run
unidsdiff
or ctxdirdiff (whichever
is available) to find the Calendar agenda that is missing an LDAP entry.

The syntax for these utilities will be as follows:

unidsdiff -n 10000
or
ctxdirdiff -n 10000

These utilities should list any entries that don't have a matching directory
entry, usually in the following format:

nscalxItemid="10000:00256" (S="Bunny",G="Bugs")

The ID number in red is the ID that you will
use to replace the ID number in the LDAP entry.

<LI>Use one of the following two options to update the LDAP entry:

Option#1:

<LI>Edit the file from the ldapsearch
output by changing the
nscalxitemid in this
file to the correct ID from the
unidsdiff/ctxdirdiff
output (from step 2 above).
<LI>Delete the user from LDAP.
<LI>Use ldapmodify to
re-add the user from the file you edited.
(ldapmodify is located
in the same directory as ldapsearch

For example,

ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -a -f filename
</UL>
Option#2:

<LI>Edit the file from the ldapsearch
output using update statements that
will update the LDAP entry without having to delete it.

For example, you can edit the output in step 1 above so that the file contains
only the following lines with the correct
nscalxitemid:

dn: uid=bbunny,o=netscape.com
changetype: modify
replace: nscalxitemid
nscaxitemid: 10000:00256

<LI>Use ldapmodify to
update the entry in the file, as follows:

ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -f filename
</UL>
</OL>
After performing the above steps, you can use
ldapsearch to locate
the entry and verify that it was changed. The user should now be
able to log into the Calendar Client and see her previous agenda entries.

<LI>From the /unison/bin
directory for Calendar, run
unidsdiff
or ctxdirdiff (whichever
is available) to find the Calendar agenda that is missing an LDAP entry.

The syntax for these utilities will be as follows:

unidsdiff -n 10000
or
ctxdirdiff -n 10000

These utilities should list any entries that don't have a matching directory
entry, usually in the following format:

nscalxItemid="10000:00256" (S="Bunny",G="Bugs")

The ID number in red is the ID that you will
use to replace the ID number in the LDAP entry.

<LI>Use one of the following two options to update the LDAP entry:

Option#1:

<LI>Edit the file from the ldapsearch
output by changing the
nscalxitemid in this
file to the correct ID from the
unidsdiff/ctxdirdiff
output (from step 2 above).
<LI>Delete the user from LDAP.
<LI>Use ldapmodify to
re-add the user from the file you edited.
(ldapmodify is located
in the same directory as ldapsearch

For example,

ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -a -f filename
</UL>
Option#2:

<LI>Edit the file from the ldapsearch
output using update statements that
will update the LDAP entry without having to delete it.

For example, you can edit the output in step 1 above so that the file contains
only the following lines with the correct
nscalxitemid:

dn: uid=bbunny,o=netscape.com
changetype: modify
replace: nscalxitemid
nscaxitemid: 10000:00256

<LI>Use ldapmodify to
update the entry in the file, as follows:

ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -w password -f filename
</UL>
</OL>
After performing the above steps, you can use
ldapsearch to locate
the entry and verify that it was changed. The user should now be
able to log into the Calendar Client and see her previous agenda entries.

RFC function module always creating BPs with the same user name (RFC user )

Hi All
I posted the below question in a different area before. But thought it would be more suitable here.
Moderators - Please let me know if am doing any mistake.
Question:
I have a RFC function module in CRM that creates Business Partners in ECC (XD01 tcode).
I am using a dialog RFC destination configured in SM59 in CRM.
But my RFC function module in CRM is always creating the Business Partners in ECC with the RFC user id (the user that we maintain for the RFC destination in SM59).
This is a problem for the users because they are not able to track the actual person responsible for creating these Business Partners.
Can somebody please let me know how to solve this problem?
Thanks
Raj

Hi.
You may use the trust relationship between CRM and R/3 and in SM59 instead of set a specific username, you set the flag "current user".
With this flag, the system will access R/3 system with the user logged in CRM system. The Trust relationship must be created between CRM and R/3 in order to the system doesn't ask for a password to login in R/3.
If you need more details please reply.
Kind regards,
Susana Messias

How do i know user distribution whether WAP user in application monitor

Hi when i use Txn ST07 i go to Application Monitor: User Distribution but how do i know how many of them are WAP user & Application Server value indicates WAp also & wt is in WP in table.
Please help

Hi Aarti Krishna,
As per my understanding, WAP users which u mean is Mobile users?
You can find the different kind of users logged on in Transaction AL08.
Also, you can find the classification in transaction AL08 as
1. Number of active users
2. No. of interact. users
3. No. of RFC-users
Now coming to 'In WP'----> which means 'Number of users connected to one work process'
If you want more information regarding each name there, you may use F1 placing the cursor there.
Hope this answer your question. Please let me know, if you need anything else.
Thanks and Regards,
Pavan Kumar Gali.

How to verify the status of lock object???

Hello,
How to verify the status of lock object???

You can check the list of lock objects for the ztable by this way....
Go to SE11, click the radibutton for lock object, then do F4 on the field. Click the "All Selections" icon, in the "Basis Table" field, put the table that you want the lock object for. click green check.

How to verify if an IPV6 address entered in a textbox is valid ?

Hi,
How to verify if an IPV6 address entered in a text box is valid. I have a swing application. Until now we used only IPV4 address and we had a gui component with only four entries, which checked if the number entered is <= 255, so the user had to enter a correct address. Now with IPV6 there are IPV6 addresses, IPV4 mapped addresses, IPV6 zero compressed addresses and leading zeroes dropped kinds. We cannot supply a fix gui component.
So if I provide a textcomponent which accepts strings - how do i check if the ip addresses entered by the user is valid. Can I use INET6Address to do this ? is there a way ?
Thanks.

InetAddress.getByName(String host)
If it returns an Inet6Address without throwing an exception, I guess that would work.

How to determine best User Device Affinity Settings

We've configured User Device Affinity for our site based on the canned defaults. Initially we started with 14 days and 1440 minutes. But after a recent deployment, we discovered that our Antivirus service account is registering as a "Primary User"
on all of our machines which has triggered a very bad situation.
My question is how do you determine these settings? My first try was to find a report that showed how many minutes each user was registering in the given period so that I could adjust it accordingly. I assume that my regular users are using the computers
a lot more than my service account but I have no way of verifying this.
I've tried combing through the security logs, but I'm not sure what SCCM is picking up on to determine the time period.
To me, it seems that 24 hours is a really low threshold and that I could bump that up to 120 hours over 14 days pretty easily without issue. My concern is that there is a reason that they are setting it so low to begin with that I'm missing. Even then, I'm
just randomly trying things hoping to get it right as I don't have the proper information to make the right decisions.
Any ideas? Feedback?

Yeah, I saw those logs but it still seems mysterious to me. I'm not sure where it's getting it's info. I assume it's the security log for each machine but I have nothing to confirm that. It's odd because our service account for our antivirus solution isn't
actually logging onto the machines so I'm not sure how it decides that this user is a primary user.
Ultimately, we worked around the problem by switching antivirus solutions but that won't be an option next time.
My guess is that we could have fixed our problem by adjusting our security logging settings in windows. But it wasn't something I wanted to do without direct confirmation with how this all works.
Thank you for your help on this though.

manu

Hi Manu,
Here I am giving example of connection Non SAP ( Informatica system) to SAP system. For this,
You need to type logical system name in RFC destination field. You can give the logical system name of non-sap system in SAP thorugh tcode BD54.
Then You need to select the connection type. As it is non-sap it wont be R3.It will be T ( Start an external program via TCp/IP).
Also you need to register the program id filed in Informatica & select radio button regiatered server program
Hope this helps.

Password for RFC USer

Hi experts,
We need to set the password for RFC User in small letters.But we are not able to do it ,because of our 'login/*' parameter values.
Is there is any other method to create the password for User ID with small letters(Ex:welcome,hello)?
Thanks in Advance,
Karthika

> > Login rules are not specific to user types. It is same for all type of users.

I tried to talk about is as per the ongoing discussion topic i.e. Case sensitiveness of Passwords and not other attributes. So from this point of view there is no such separate rule applies during admin imposed password or during a change (the cases where system prompts for changing password).

Agreed totally.

I didn't went through in details fully but seen it contains a considerable error details.... may be of any help to OP.

May be.. but of course need more information and purpose of such strictness for setting such password. Also the FM PASSWORD_FORMAL_CHECK can be used with required customizations but you are the best person to tell this properly.
