Identity Sync - Password randomly generated in AD

Configuration:
DS 5.2 Patch 2
on Solaris 9
with Identity Sync for Windows 1 2004Q3
configured to Synch from DS to AD
I have set up object creation to flow from DS to AD, and the user creation works okay but the password I create the account with is not being pushed to AD. Instead it creates the account with a randomly generated password. Is there a way around this, I am attempting to script new user creations. Here is log entry I get in error.log when I create a user.
[08/Mar/2005:11:35:59.416 +1000] WARNING 29 CNN101 tyr "Successfully created user cn=James Test,cn=users,dc=xxx,dc=xxx,dc=xx with randomly generated password. This account will be unusable until another password is set." (Action ID=CNN100-1027FA4BBD3-491, SN=2)
Thankyou in advance for any assistance!!

I've been doing some more testing and have some more information that might be important.
I have been testing the attribute synchronisation for the mappings I have done, and noticed that if I modify the userpassword attribute in the DS console it is not being synch'd to AD, but I can modify other attributes and they do get synch'd. If I modify the password on the AD side it gets synch'd back to DS ok. I have attribute modification set to flow in both directions and the password mapping is (DS) userpassword <--> unicodepwd (AD).
Given it seems to ignore changes to the userpassword attribute for modifications, it looks like this is also holding true for creations, and I guess this is why it's randomly assigning a password.
Any ideas why it sees other attribute modifcations and synch's them from the DS side, but is not seeing the userpassword attribute?

How to create a new user in IDM 8.1 with random generated password?

Hi, i want create a new user using a modified tabbed user fom that cannot ask for password and confirm password to the administrator but randomly generate a new password (only when the form is opened in user creation) according to password policy and display it on the form.
I think it is possible because Reset User Password Form does it, but i don't know how put this kind og logic in an other form.
thanks
Marco

If you want to generate a users password randomly then you could take a look at the com.waveset.provision.PasswordGenerator class inside the Identity Mgr REF kit. Here's an example:
<Rule name='generateRandomPassword'>
       <Comments>generate a random password</Comments>
       <RuleArgument name='accountId' value='Configurator'>
         <Comments>accountId of the user</Comments>
         <String>Configurator</String>
       </RuleArgument>
       <RunAsUser>
         <ObjectRef type='User' id='#ID#Configurator' name='Configurator'/>
       </RunAsUser>
       <block trace='true'>
         <defvar name='session'>
           <or>
             <ref>context</ref>
             <ref>display.session</ref>
           </or>
         </defvar>
         <defvar name='wsuser'>
           <invoke name='getObject' class='com.waveset.ui.FormUtil'>
             <ref>session</ref>
             <s>User</s>
             <ref>accountId</ref>
           </invoke>
         </defvar>
          <defvar name='pwgenerator'>
           <new class='com.waveset.provision.PasswordGenerator'>
             <ref>session</ref>
           </new>
         </defvar>
         <invoke name='generatePassword'>
           <ref>pwgenerator</ref>
           <ref>wsuser</ref>
         </invoke>
       </block>
    </Rule> You'll want to take the password.password field and inside the Default event handler check to see if waveset.id is null, if it is then call the Rule above.

Randomly Generated Pixels

Hi!
I want to create a script that creates random (or near random) values for every single pixel of a document, similar to the "Add Noise..." filter, but with more control, such as "only b/w", "only grey", "all RGB" and "all RGB with alpha" and maybe even control over the probability distribution. Any idea how this could be tackled? Selecting every single pixel and applying a random color seems like something that would take a script hours...
Why do I need this?
I've started creating some filters in Pixel Bender (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Pixel_Bender). Since Pixel Bender doesn't really have any random generator (and workarounds are limited) I'm planning on passing on the random numbers through random pixel values. I'm well aware that this can only be used for filters in which Pixel Bender creates images from scratch, but that's the plan.
Thanks!

Understanding the details of the Add Noise filter is probably beyond the scope of just a short post. Here is an approach to start learning what it does.
- Take a 50% gray level and make it a Smart Object.
- Open up the historgram panel (should show a spike right at 50%)
- Apply noise filter to Smart Object in monochrome building up from small percentages in small increments
- You will notice that for this option above, you end up with a uniform probability function over the entire tonality spread at 50% applied for uniform distribution.
There are a variety of ways to manipulate this function, through various blends.
Please note a couple things
1) I am using CS5 and though not documented anywhere that I have seen, the Noise Filter does work different than in CS4. In CS4, if you run the same noise filter twice on two identical objects, my experience is that you get the identical bit for bit result ( a random pattern yet not independent of the next run of the filter). Manipulating Probability Density Functions (PDFs) per my previous post requires that each run of the Noise Filter starts with a different "seed" so that the result is independent of the previous run. CS5 does this where succesive runs will create an independent noise result.
2) PS does not equally randomize R, G, and B. There are ways to get around this yet wanted to give you a heads up.
3) There are other ways to generate quick random patterns outside of PS and bring them in (using scripts). You would need to understand the format of the Photoshop Raw file. This type of file contains bytes with just the image pixel data. These types of files are easy to create and then load into PS. From a script (or even faster call a Python script) create this file and then load it into PS as a Photoshop Raw format file and use as an overlay. There is not question that this is faster than trying to manipulate individual PS pixesl through a script.
4) Please not the under Color Settings there is an option called Dither. If this is set, there are times where PS adds nosie into the image (I leave mine turned off). If is used in a number of places in PS other than what the documentation implies (more than just when moving between 8 bit color spaces)
Good luck if you are going after making a plug-in. I have never invested in that learning curve. Good luck.

How to use Random ?
First you open API then you read it, then you use it.
You mention you try to use it but i just see a horrible nested for for for if if if loop.
Restructure code and question and maybe it makes more sense.

Writing a class using random generator in bluej

Hello
Im trying to write a class for a deck of cards. Im using a random generator but I dont know how to write the instance variable.
I have to make 4 suits heart, club, spade, dimonds. and 13 for face value. I know how to random generate numbers. Like if I were making a slot machine to give me 3 numbers in a rage from 0-10. Thats just numbers. How do I random generate values of 1-13 and have it output a random suit? Also how do I make it say if its a jack king or queen? Do I need a constructor or how would I make the card with the face value of 13 suit heart and the card be a queen.
before jumping down my throat about this being a homework assignment...yes it is but this step Im seeking help on there is no example for this type of generating.
Thanks for any help
Rewind

Well, this is far from bullet-proof, but I think gets the basic idea across. This does sampling with replacement; if you wanted to do something like shuffle a deck of cards you'll need a smarter approach than this.
import java.util.*;
public class RandomCards {
public static void main(String[] args) {
    Suit suit=new Suit();
    for (int i=0; i < 10; i++) {
      System.out.println(suit.nextSuit());
private static class Suit {
    public static final String HEART="Heart";
    public static final String DIAMOND="Diamond";
    public static final String SPADE="Spade";
    public static final String CLUB="Club";
    private final String[] SUITS={ HEART, DIAMOND, SPADE, CLUB };
    private Gen suitGen=new Gen(0,3);
    public String nextSuit() {
      return SUITS[suitGen.nextInt()];
private static class Gen {
    private int floor,ceiling;
    private Random rand;
    public Gen(int floor, int ceiling) {
      this.floor=floor;
      this.ceiling=ceiling;
      rand=new Random();
    public int nextInt() {
      return rand.nextInt(ceiling-floor)+floor;

Random generated number along with barcode in smartforms

Hi All,
Is it possible to add some random generated number by system to add along with the end of the barcode in smartforms. (what could be the field) If so how it can be done. Tanks in advance
Regards
GK

Hi Tankx man 4 the valuable reply,
     I am able to get that, but what my problem is,
Eg: In my GR a item with 10 qty, so i made the qty as input and based upon that i am printing 10 labels. for ur ref the code is below"
menge = TRUNC( is_mseg-menge ).
DO menge TIMES.
header-slno = header-slno + 1.
APPEND header TO itab.
the complete program is like as follows;
menge = TRUNC( is_mseg-menge ).
DO menge TIMES.
header-slno = header-slno + 1.
APPEND header TO itab.
CALL FUNCTION 'QF05_RANDOM_INTEGER'
EXPORTING
RAN_INT_MAX   = '999999999'
RAN_INT_MIN   = '100000000'
IMPORTING
RAN_INT       = RANINT
EXCEPTIONS
INVALID_INPUT = 1
OTHERS        = 2.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
ENDIF.
WRITE :/ RANINT.
ENDDO.
but in my barcode all the label has the same random number, can u say how to solve this.

How to view my sync password?

Since I started using Firefox sync I never have to enter user/password (it logs in automatically when I run the browser up - woo hoo). So in the meantime I've forgotten this information. But if I have my browser running and I've sync'd ok that information must be in the browser 'space' somewhere.
I have a new PC at home and want to get my sync'd info from my work PC. I can get the recovery key OK and print that off but what about the username/password?

If you saved your SYNC password in firefox, view your password here
*https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/password-manager-remember-delete-change-passwords#w_viewing-and-deleting-passwords
If you didn't save the password, reset your Firefox SYNC password

Sync password does not work

My hard drive was starting to crash and I was going to have someone come out and put in a new one for me. I couldn't find out how to back up my info so I figured I could sync my info and get it from firefox later. I wrote down the password and saved it in a file that I later recovered from my hard drive. The password, name, and sync password do not get me my information. I know the sync password is correct because I got it down twice. I really really need some of that information and I can't just create a new sync password since my old hardrive is long gone and creating a new password says it will delete the old saved information. Please, please, please, tell me there is something I can do to retrieve my info?
I can sign in to my sync account

Does the password work at https://account.services.mozilla.com/ ?

SPro | SQR APY1060 is randomly generating Corrupted PDF's

Hi,
We're in the process of implementing SPro FSCM 8.9 on 8.47.11 for one of our clients. While the running the OOB SQR APY1060, we've found that the SQR randomly generates corrupted PDF. When we run the Process again, it works fine...Its is also difficult to replicate in other environments.
Has any body faced an issues like this earlier with any PS delivered SQR.
We've been able to zero in on the culprit - Control-M ... We've noticed a pattern, using the same run control ID, if we run it (PSJob) using the online page, then the PSJob runs absolutely fine. However, when we schedule it through Control-M the corruption happens. Also, if we create separate Process Requests in Control-M to schedule individual processes rather than the OOB PSJob, the SQR runs fine...Not sure if some one has come across such an issue...
Thank You
Prashant
Edited by: PSFT_PP on Feb 9, 2009 8:47 AM

I am not sure about this..but do you have different run control for the different OS or the same run control. Unix always recognises CAPS runcontrol values. do a check on that please.

Not receiving the email to enable reset of my Sync password. Have tried several times across days. No email.

I had to change my Sync password a couple of weeks ago for security reasons, but now neither password works. Attempts to reset my password via the email method don't work, because while Sync says it has sent one, I never receive it. According to Sync, the email address associated with the account is still active.

If you have a rescue email address on your account then you've checked the inbox and spam folder on that account as well ?

Randomly generate an ID for SQL Create Table command

Hi,
I need help to randomly generate an integer, which i can use as a primary key for the ID of a table field. I have no idea how to do this so that it generates a different number every single time.
Right now it just increments the ID by 1. Maybe, is there a way to get the last ID value of the table field and then increment starting from that one? thanks

Your analysis is flawed! One of my main reasons for
doing this is to reduce the load on the db server. I
don't have to go to the db to get an id every time I
need one. Every now and again (usually less than one
in a 2000) I have to repeat an insert operation.
You already stated that this was the reason, so I used that as part of my assessment. With most, perhaps all databases, the ability to increment a key is done as part of the insert operation. It requires no additional 'trip' to the database to get the ID. There is so much wrong with your idea, I hardly know where to start. I wouldn't be so firm except you stated that you do this all the time. Even using it once is very questionable I wouldn't want this idea to profilerate to other peoples systems without comment.
You also said:
On one project I was having to place usage transaction records
into a database with each one needing an ID. I started using your
technique but it was taking almost as much time as the insert of
each transaction into the database.I agree, and I think dcminter agreed that there are less expensive practices then max(fld)+1 which are in fact using the vendor specific capabilities. However, if this was taking as long as your insert, there was probably something else wrong. For example, if the field you are getting the max value for isn't indexed, or isn't the first field in a contatenated index (an index of multiple fields), then some databases (there are exceptions like redbrick) will require either a full table scan, an index scan or an ackward index lookup to give back the max value. It shouldn't be that way, but it is and you have undestand how your database is resolving max() in order to make the best decisions.
I stand by analysis and I would suggest that rather then use your method "all the time" that you save it for that unusual situation where nothing else will work for you.

QCPatch 'Random Generator' Broken Seed?

Hi there all,
Just putting this out there - perhaps I'm wrong, but want some other QC developers who are more experienced to compare with.
Quartz Composer Patch "Random Generator" - one of the inbuilt patches available.
Its purpose is to generate random numbers between a range, and supply the number on its output port.
To this end, it works fine.
My problem with this patches behavior occurs when it is nested in a macro patch, and that patch is then duplicated (purpose obvious).
*The duplicated macro patch appears to also copy the Random Generators' base seed.*
For example I have the same picture resulting from Random Generators nested inside a macro patch that contains processing for a random choice of image to a sprite.
The only way i could work around this (and this may help others with the same problem) was to Publish the Input ports all the way up to the root level patch, and supply new instances of a Random Generator for each instance of the duplicated macro patch.
Then I received fresh random seeds from the generator and different images were selected for output to my nested sprite.
Awfully inconvenient given that each macro had 4 levels of nesting using objects like render in image, 3D transformation and Lighting - all patches that require nesting, and also reset your ports being passed to a parent, meaning you have to - 're-map' the Published Inputs with every layer of nesting. Not to mention the fact that the root level of the document is cluttered all to **** with millions of Random Generator patches.
Anyone get this behavior?
Please let me know if I'm just screwing my design up, or if this is encountered by you too and we should report it as a bug. (Ive only been devving QC for several weeks straight, so I'm want to actually report it as a bug yet).
Many thanks in advance,
Wilks.

A random created with the same seed will give the same set of random numbers.
