HT2729 How do I restrict access to a library? Can I use password?

I am using Apple TV. I have 2 libraries with different video content. I want to restrict access to 1 of these libraries. How do I do this?

Any file on YOUR desktop already has permissions set such that no other user account can access. But if you want to use the OS's native capability to encrypt the contents of a folder, place that folder within an encrypted image.
Use Disk Utility to create a disk image, and encrypt it with the same utility (use settings in "new image") . Make sure you size the image to a size great enough to hold all your files. Once created, and placed on your desktop, open it, using your password. Once the image is mounted, place the files you want to protect into that image, and then dismount/eject the image. The image essentially becomes your password encrypted folder. Double click it at any time to access your files (enter password). Eject the mounted image to "re-encrypt".
If you want a disk image that has cross platform capability, then try TrueCrypt. It is great App for Mac & Windows, with other advantages as well.

How do I restrict access to a folder-like attaching a password in order for someone to open it.

I want to locate a folder on my desktop, but want to restrict access so that anyone on my laptop can't access the folder, even though they will see it sitting on the desktop. How do I set up folder permissions?

How do you restrict access to certain apps via the use of Time Restrictions?

Is there anyway to limit the use of certain apps to a time period of the day? I know the time restrictions on this site ONLY pertain to texting and calls, but not email or any other app, such as Twitter or Facebook, etc.

Well, there are a few different ways to go about it. You could add a preferences page with the admin functionality, and then an admin would just have to click the little pencil in the portlet titlebar. No admin/edit access, no little pencil.
I have often set the visibility of an ASPX control directly from activity rights, in OnPageLoad, if it isn't postback time. The activity rights should be inherited by the user, through the user's group. Best practise is to create empty groups called Roles, add activity rights to the Roles, and then have the actual groups (that contain users) inherit from one or more Roles.
You already knew that part, I added it for the others. My personal definition of a portlet is 'polymorphous instance of a web service'.
So:
Role: Store Manager (has Edit Shopping Cart activity right)
^
Group: Store Managers (has Store Manager parent group)
User: Vladimir (inherits Edit Shopping Cart activity right)

SSH login- how do I restrict access to a shared folder?

I have created Shares in WGM for SMB and AFP access on my OS X 10.4.8 Server. However when I connect via SSH it's not restricting access to the folder based on the User Name I login with- I see the entire volume! How do I restrict access to a specific folder based on a user name setup in WGM? ACL's?

Hey George,
It sounds like you are trying to limit ssh/sftp users to a specific area, aka jails. The FTP server lets you 'chroot' users to a certain area making it appear as the root thus preventing them from navigating up the hierarchy, which is what I think you, and me and many others are trying to accomplish.
The ssh compiled into OS X is missing this very needed feature. There have been a few documented workarounds, but they've either been too insecure or too clunky for me.
I've dealt with the fact that my users can get to the root of the hard drive, and have just been very careful about my privileges (by using ACLs), thus preventing them from getting inside areas they shouldn't.
There's a good write up here: http://www.schwie.com/brad/macosxsftpchroot/ and if you include the term 'chroot' in your searches, you should find a bit about it here too.
And Roger, I think George meant the file sharing protocol used by ssh. man sftp.

Hello,
You need to put the Tiger Install Disc in the 2011 iMac, boot the 2011 uMac into Target mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
Boot the G4 holding the Option or alt key, hopefully the Install Disc in the 2011 iMac will show as a boot choice.
We just want to use the 2011 iMac as a big expensive FW Optical drive, it cannot be installed osing the 2011 iMac itself.

ASA WebVPN. How do you restrict access to users in an AD group using LDAP?

Hi All,
I am trying to configure separate WebVPN connection profiles to give different portal bookmark contents to users based on their AD group membership. This has been very difficult, even though I beleive it should be easy.
The login page of teh ASA by default has a dropdown to allow default users to access the default portal and the SSL VPN client connection.
There are two other portals that I would like to restrict access to based on AD group membership. I have set these up to be selected by URL.
The biggest problem is, I have no way of knowing how to go about this. The AAA LDAP options show a group membership search, which I have configured, but I cannot say "Profile X is restricted to AD group CarpetBaggers", so that if soneone that is NOT a carpetbagger tries to log in, it fails.
I can only do an all or nothing scenario.
It would be nice to use Dynamic Access Policies to do this, and I have created a few, but they do NOT seem to work when the drop down aliases or URLs are in use. So how do I go about using them in this scenario? Turning off the aliases or URLs is not really an option right now.
Scenario 1 would work the best for me. Restrict access to profiles/groups based on AD group membership using LDAP.
Scenario 2 would be an ideal longer term solution.
Any thoughts, ideas or assitance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

This is exactly what i was looking for, and Nelson is correct. When you enter the DAP configuration for a profile click on "Advanced" and there is the option to create a logical expression. The guide (ther is a button to access this) is really helpful, with a couple of examples. This is what i used:
assert(function()
   if ( (type(aaa.ldap.distinguishedName) == "string") and
        (string.find(aaa.ldap.distinguishedName, "OU=Users") ~= nil) )
then
       return true
   end
   return false
end)()
from the debug dap you can see what Users relates to;
DAP_TRACE: Username: MyUsername, aaa.ldap.distinguishedName = CN=Mr B,OU=Users,OU=Site ******,DC=CH,DC=Mycompany,DC=com
My admin account fails to get me in to the same profile:
DAP_TRACE: dap_add_to_lua_tree:aaa["ldap"]["distinguishedName"]="CN=Admin Mr B,OU=Admin Users,OU=Site *****,DC=CH,DC=Mycompany,DC=com"
Thanks

How do I restrict access to JSP or servlet only through SSL Port

Hi
I want to restrict the access to few jsp and servlet only through SSL port,
so how can I block the acces to those jsp and servlet through normal port??? We
are using weblogic 5.1.
Any help on this highly appreciated.
Aruna

Hi,
To restrict access(56 bits or less). follow the below steps.
1. Go to your Webserver instance ServerManager
2. Click Preferences Tab ------> Encryption Preference
------> There disable "DES with 56 bit
encryption and MD5 message authentication."
for SSL 2.0 ciphers or SSL3.0 Ciphers. Which ever
needed.
3. Save and Restart the Webserver instance.
The above steps are for 4.x version.
Thanks,
Daks.

How do you restrict access to custom applications?

When I create portlets, there is usually an associated "admin" functionality that needs to be created for each custom application. An example is a shopping cart that we just created, we needed admins to be able to go in and upload photos.
The way that I do this is I create a new portlet "Shopping Cart Admin" and restrict access to it that way. However, because I usually add everything in the /remoteserver/shoppingcart/. folder to the gateway space (its too painful to add one by one), this means that I can't put admin.aspx in that folder. So I usually end up creating a NEW folder /remoteserver/shoppingcartadmin/ for the admin portlet.
Long story short, its a lot of work. I know that I could try to use activity rights, but those seem very global. How do you control edit access to your custom portlets?

Well, there are a few different ways to go about it. You could add a preferences page with the admin functionality, and then an admin would just have to click the little pencil in the portlet titlebar. No admin/edit access, no little pencil.
I have often set the visibility of an ASPX control directly from activity rights, in OnPageLoad, if it isn't postback time. The activity rights should be inherited by the user, through the user's group. Best practise is to create empty groups called Roles, add activity rights to the Roles, and then have the actual groups (that contain users) inherit from one or more Roles.
You already knew that part, I added it for the others. My personal definition of a portlet is 'polymorphous instance of a web service'.
So:
Role: Store Manager (has Edit Shopping Cart activity right)
^
Group: Store Managers (has Store Manager parent group)
User: Vladimir (inherits Edit Shopping Cart activity right)

How do I restrict access to messaging and mail

I want to restrict access to mail and messaging for security reasons, but these don't seem to be options in the restrictions menu.
If this option is not available, when is it planned to be implemented? Or how do I make this a feature request.
I don't quite understand why I'd want to restrict someone from using youtube or the camera, yet give them full access to all my personal email and messages.

I don't quite understand why I'd want to restrict someone from using youtube or the camera, yet give them full access to all my personal email and messages.
I don't know what Apple thinks, but I've always assumed the restrictions are for the situation where a parent buys a teenager their own phone, and wants to restrict data use or time spent on the web. They are not security restrictions. Many people who let kids play with their phone want more flexibility in restrictions.

HT2688 How do I restrict access to *specific* songs (or give access to a specific playlist) in Home Sharing

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688?
This article describes two different things:
Music Sharing and
Home Sharing
Music Sharing allows you to select playlist(s) to share, and allows you to play the song from another device. It does *not* allow you to transfer the song to another device.
Home Sharing allows you to share your ENTIRE music library and transfer the songs to another device. It does not allow you to restrict the share to a specific playlist(s).
Try it. You can set a password and check the boxes to restrict your playlists, but that only restricts while Home Sharing is turned off. EVERY file is accessible when you have Home Sharing running.
I have a bunch of music I don't want my kids listening to. I've created a playlist for them, and I want them to be able to load their ipods with music from that list without accessing other music. Any ideas?
