Is it possible access to dashboards by using network users insted of obiee

Hi,
can anybody have idea about this
is it possible access to dashboard by using network users.insted of obiee users.i.ewhen you are login into presentation services it will ask user name and password. in this case it will not like that when we are log in to the sysytem by using user name and password.by using that user name and password it can directly access to the dashboard is it possible or not?means that by using network username and password can i able to login to the dashboard by cliking the presentation url.with out asking username and password again.
please help me
thanking you

Yes, you can and if your presentation services are hosted on a windows server, thats lot more easy. While the presentation server is being promoted, you can have users get authenticated using LDAP/AD and that way, you need not go through typing username/pwd once again.
Configure SSO
Set IIS authentication to “Windows authentication”:
Open IIS Manager => Select Default website => Right-click => Properties => Directory Security tab => Authentication and access contol => Edit … => deselect “Enable anonymous access” => Select “Integrated Windows authentication” => Ok => Ok => Select All => Ok
Open the instanceconfig.xml file (located in OracleBIData\web\config). Set <SSO enabled = “true”>. Save and close file.
Restart your server and start your OBIEE services.. You are good to go now.
Like others said, may be you are better off with closing your questions so others can use it.

  • Trying to access Lion server remote using multi-user access, but from a legacy Leopard system

    Just purchased a mini server running Lion, and got screen sharing working fine from my legacy system (32-bit so Leopard only). However, I would like to run in multi-user mode, so someone can use the Lion system and another person can access their own account, from the older Leopard system, at the same time. Using multi-user rather than screen sharing. But Leopard does not have the option on the Finder/Share Screen command, the pop-up window to select screen sharing or new virtual session. So, is there a way still to run a new virtual session from a remote client running Leopard?  Since the multi-user capability resides on the Lion server, it should be possible, but how, without the pop-up menu?

  • How to access OBI Dashboards from outside Network.

    Hi Gurus
    I want to access MY Dashboards Reports from any where on internet. My BI server is available on LAN so how i ;ll make it available to access it from any place.
    Any Reference DOC, Blog or guide.

I've just re-read your original question - If you want the BI Server accessible on the internet you need it visibile outside of your firewall - Your network people should be able to set up any routing you need to achieve this.
    Chances are if you have a VM running on an internal server, you wont have this access by default - there are various security hoops to jump through to get this working.

  • Error "kdc: Server not found in database" on attempted connections using Network User Credentials

    I am rebuilding my system after a recent debacle with Time Machine, which resulted in a complete wiping of my Open Directory contents. At this point, users can log into various computers on the network, when the hosts have been reconnected to the newly formed Open Directory and the trust certificate has been authorized.  However, when users attempt to connect to any file share, the Network User Account credentials fail to gain access.
    I am running Mac OS X 10.9.4 on all systems. Two mac-mini's are running OS X Server 3.1.2.  One of these servers (mavericks1.pediatricheartcenter.org) is the Open Directory.  While testing the system, I am using the console on "Mavericks1," so the following discussion involves communication between the two server hosts only.
    From Mavericks1, I open the console and attempt to connect to my file server, named fileserver.pediatricheartcenter.org.  I clear the console just prior to sending a "registered user" request to "FileServer" to gain access.  Careful examination of the console records shows the following:
    1. The Network User is authorized with a message "ENC-TS pre-authentication succeeded".
    2. Mavericks1 lists a console message that reads "kdc: Server not found in database: krbtgt/[email protected]:no such entry found in hdb"
    3. Mavericks1 lists a console message that reads "kdc: Server not found in database: cifs/[email protected]: no such entry found in hdb"
    4. The process registers what appears to be a final failure before trying again with "kdc: Failed building TGS-REP to 127.0.0.1:64390"
    FileStorage.local does not exist in the DNS, nor does it exist on FileStorage.pediatricheartcenter.org. That (local) host name was removed when the domain host name for filestorage.pediatricheartcenter.org was created.
    1. Why does the kerberos process reference a host name that does not exist?
    2. What might be causing the failed authentication exchange?
    3. What can be done to remedy the issue?

    I spent some time on the phone with Apple Support on Friday.  Thank you to Linc Davis for providing some insights into the issues.
    As a result of the conversation with Apple Support we learned the following, which I will report here for those who might find this page again:
    First, OpenDirectories are extremely fragile.  Once you have turned on your OpenDirectory, do not do any of the following:
    Do NOT change the host name.
    Do NOT change the IP address.
    If you are going to attempt either of these things, you should make a clone of your drive (not just a TimeMachine backup, a fully bootable clone, just in case).
    Performing these activities (particularly the changing of the host name) will "break" your open directory, and the only way to rebuild the open directory is first to fully destroy the original.  Several services are also destroyed when OpenDirectory is broken, the most notable is Profile Manager.
    DESTROYING OPEN DIRECTORY
    To fully destroy OpenDirectory, it is more complex than simply turning off the OpenDirectory and turning it back on again.  Perform the following steps:
    Install WorkGroup Manager (it is depricated, but Apple still has a version available for use with OS X Mavericks to handle functions that the Server App does not perform like exporting users and groups).
    Sign into WorkGroup Manager as the directory administrator (user name defaults to "diradmin" the password is defined on OpenDirectory creation).
    Export the Users, Groups, Computers and Computer Groups to the Desktop or another safe location.
    Close WorkGroup Manager
    Turn off the OpenDirectory in Server App.
    Delete the Server App from the Applications folder and put it in the Trash. (This will disable any active services that are marking various files as being currently in use. Don't worry, we will restore it from the Trash when we are done).
    In the terminal, run the following command: sudo slapconfig -destroyldapserver
    Make a backup of all website files (just in case)
    Navigate to the folder /Library/Server and delete the ProfileManager folder. (If you willing to do so, delete the whole Server folder).
    After deleting various folders in the /Library/Server directory, restore the Server.app from the Trash.
    Run the Server App.
    Set the computer's network connection and host name.
    Create a new OpenDirectory.
    Use WorkGroup Manager to import any exported files from Step 3.
    If you deleted the entire Server directory, use the website backup to retrieve the files that comprise your web site(s) and use the Server App to link the file directories to the Web site's domain name(s).
    Personal Note: These instructions got me farther than any other tips I had received previously. After following these instructions, I was able to rebuild my Open Directory. During the process of copying files from the old user home folders into the new user home folders, the computer froze and when it rebooted, all the users and groups I had created during the day had disappeared. Rather than trouble-shooting it again, I decided to do a fresh installation.
    A NOTE ON HOME FOLDERS
    PER APPLE SUPPORT: Do NOT use the default /Users directory for Network users. Apple Support wanted me to rebuild the home directory, but they noted I was not able to do this, because I had used /Users.  This folder ("/Users") is a critical component of the OS X system, and will cause additional problems if the folder is destroyed and rebuilt.  The directory id and permissions must remain unchanged from the original installation.
    For this reason, Server administrators (like yourself) should use File Sharing in the Server App to create a new anchor point for home directories.  Create a shared folder. Ensure that it is shared over the protocols that you will be using (AFP, SMB, WebDav), and then after selecting these values, check the box that allows the folder to be used as a home directory at the bottom of this list.  This box will be greyed out if the system is not already bound to an OpenDirectory. If you have activated OpenDirectory on the same machine, the machine will operate as if bound to itself, and this field will be active.  If the FileShare server is NOT an OpenDirectory master or replica, then bind the machine to an OpenDirectory via the "System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options".
    If the local area network has FileShares that are enabled for home directory use, the folders will appear in the User Profile editor under the Home Folder list (See image)
    In the screenshot above, I have selected a shared directory named "HomeFolders".  By using specially defined home folder directory, the server administrator has the option of deleting and modifying the home folder if necessary.  Creating a home folder directory in a location other than "/Users" is the recommended best practice by Apple Support.
    If you are inserting files into the home folders, you will need to change the owner and the group to the new owners names.  I copied files from the old user directories into the new user directories so that the users would have access to their old files.  When my OpenDirectory crashed, and all the users were recreated, they were recreated with different system level user id's.  The system therefore maintains a memory that the file was owned by the original owner, even though the system administrator has put it in the new user profile's folder.  To fix this, do the following:
    1. Prior to making the copy, run "ls -al" from the terminal on the new home directory root.  You are looking for the default folder owner and default folder group.  On my system it was the user name and a group named "staff".
    2. When making the copy, do not replace the user folder. Copy the files into the file folder, not over it.
    3. After you have moved files into the user's folders, you can use "sudo chown -R [owner]:[group] [homeFolderPath]/*" and "sudo chmod -R 700 [homeFolderPath]/*" (replace the [owner] and [group] portions of these commands with the owners and groups identified by the command in step 1, and replace [homeFolderPath] with a path to the user directory created for the specific user.
    For example:
    For the user johnnybgood, we might see the following:
    1. We run "ls -al" on the newly created home folder and find that the folder /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood is owned by johnnybgood and the group "staff".
    2. We copy or move files from the old locations using commands similar to the following:
           sudo mv /OldFolderLocation/johnnybgood/Documents/* /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Documents
           sudo mv /OldFolderLocation/johnnybgood/Desktop/* /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Desktop
           sudo mv /OldFolderLocation/johnnybgood/Music/* /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Music
           ....etc....
           (notice how we are not just moving the old johnnybgood folder to the new location.)
    3. Next, we change the ownership and file permissions:
           sudo chown -R johnnybgood:staff /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Documents
           sudo chown -R johnnybgood:staff /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Desktop
           sudo chown -R johnnybgood:staff /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Music
           ...etc...
           sudo chmod -R 700 /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Documents
           sudo chmod -R 700 /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Desktop
           sudo chmod -R 700 /Volumes/HomeFolders/johnnybgood/Music
           ...etc...
    4. Let the user log in and use the system normally.

  • Use networked Users.ini in deployed simple user interface

    I'm using the  Simple LabVIEW UI that comes with TestStand 2014. I have customised it to my requirements, but have a small issue. I want to deploy the interface to numerous production PC's but cannot workout how to get the interface to use a networked Users.ini, at Login on those PC's. Does anyone know how to make the user interface use a networked Users.ini? I know that in TestStand 2014 you can use the menus Configure>Station Options>User Manager to tell it where to find a networked Users.ini. I don't know how to make the Simple LabVIEW UI do the same thing. Hopefully I've missed something obvious and will soon be felling rather stupid.
    Thanks
    Colin

    Colin,
    This setting is stored in TestExec.ini.  You can deploy this by following this link: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E5E4FEADEFE6023D862571590000C5CC
    Here's another link:http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052N-01/tsdeploysystem/infotopics/includingcfgfiles/
    TestExec.ini is just 1 of many cfg files for TestStand.  They all need to be in the same folder.  Generally the ProgramData\National Instruments\<TestStand>\Cfg folder.  The exception is Users.ini.  It is the only cfg file that can be in a different location (as you have discovered)
    So I recommend pointing to the users.ini on your development machine and then adding TestExec.ini to your workspace.  Then you need ot put it in the Cfg directory on the deployment machine.  Be careful though because there are a lot of other settings stored in that file.
    Hope this helps,

    but EULA ?? what does it stand for? I am pretty new to all this so good to learn something.
    ps. backgroud of my request is, that I purchased LR in a box in 2013. The computer where this is on, is at the end of its life and I have no LR box with License or any reference nr's anymore.
    Copied to my new Laptop, which maybe is not allowed if I understand you correct, it didn't work.
    Pitty, because afterall it is still my legally relatively recent purchased LR version.
    I thought to overcome this problem in future by putting it on my NAS. Safe for many years to come.

  • Use thinkvantage access connections to map a network drive

    Is it possible to use thinkvantage access connections to map a network drive. I have three different basic sites (home, work1, work2) with network drives that I would like to access depending on the site.
    1) I wonder if it is possible to configure thinkvantage access connections to automatically map the network resources through a connection profile?
    2) I wonder if it is possible to configure thinkvantage access connections to automatically map the network resources through a connection profile that is based on vpn connection?
    thanks in advance
    sincerely, anders

    Hi,
    directly it's not possible for Access Connection to reconfigure your network drives.
    However, there is one really cool part of Access Connection, that might be realy suitable for your situation. This part is the script/application, that can be executed when a profile gets applied.
    So for your situation I can imagine, that you create a .bat file, that contains something like this:
    net use * /DELETE /YES
    net use Z: \\computer name\share name
    The first part will delete all maped drives. The second part will establish connection that you want to use. Of course you can multiply the last part, so that you can configure multiple connections.
    Please let me know, if this helps.
    Cheers

    Is following message due to 'Java' setting left unchecked?
    Mac OSX supportsUser Authentication Mechanism (UAM) plug - ins from other manufacturers to control access to servers.To use a UAM, copy the plug - in to: Library/ Filesystems/ AppleShare/ Authenti

    Man that is an ancient message.
    The last time I saw that was using Mac clients connected to a Microsoft (Windows) Server running 'Services for Macintosh' which included the ability to act as an AppleShare compatible file server. Because Microsoft have a different security system for defining accounts which includes the 'domain' as well as username, the standard Mac AFP client did not know how to send that information.
    Therefore Apple made it possible to installed a plugin in the form of a UAM or User Authentication Mechanism which added the ability to send this information to login to the fileserver.
    See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/101747
    However Microsoft have long discontinued 'Services for Macintosh' and now the only way for a Mac to connect to a standard Windows Server is via SMB not AFP. I don't believe this plugin is available to download anymore.

  • Any best practice recommendations for controlling access to dashboards?

    Everyone,
         I understand that an Xcelsius dashboard compiled into a .swf file contains no means for providing access control to limit who can or how many times they can run the dashboard. Basically, if they have a copy of the .swf they can use it as much as they'd like. To protect access to sensitive data I'd like to be able to control who can access the dashboard and how many times or how long they can access it for.
         From what I've read it seems the simplest way to do this is to embed the swf file into a web portal that requires a user to authenticate before accessing the file. I suppose I can then handle how long they can access it from the back end.
         If I do this, is there anyway a user can do something like <right click - save as> on the flash file to save it on their local machine? Is there a best practice means for properly protecting the dashboard?
    Any advice would be appreciated,

  • Is it possible to build a firewall using labview??

    Is it possible to build a firewall using labview??
    RAJESH

    There are several kinds of firewalls, for example:
    (1) so called "personal firewall software" which applies some policies to incoming and outgoing ethernet traffic on the computer it is running.
    (2) Dedicated hardware firewalls (having at least two ethernet interfaces) that enforce policies of traffic flowing across. These can be bridging, routing, or even be proxying.
    LabVIEW does NOT have access to the low level packet structure (ethernet header, ip header, tcp header, etc.) and relies on the OS for routing decisions. LabVIEW only deals with TCP and UDP and only at a very high level. A firewall must also make decisions for e.g. ICMP, GRE, or other IP packets, must know the status of all TCP flags (SYN, ACK, URG, PSH, FIN, RST), must check for valid fragmentations, et., etc.. LabVIEW cannot do any typical firewall tasks unless you do most of your work with external routines. In this case, LabVIEW just provides the UI.
    (Even simple ftp traffic would be quite complicated. For example the ports for the secondary data connections must be dynamically allowed based on information gleaned from the control connection, in this particular case the PORT command and the reply to the PASV command).
    I would say the answer is NO! Not with the networking tools provided with LabVIEW alone.
    With lots of work, you might be able to built a simple proxy server using LabVIEW, but this would seem quite useless...

  • Deleting a MS Access database table record using JOptionPane

    hi!
    just want some help here..
    is there a way to delete a MS Access database record through using JOptionPane?? i've gone through some, probably alot of examples on SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE statements but none came up to the stuff i need.
    so far i've seen the DELETE statement like this and also this is a common DELETE statement..
    statement.executeUpdate("DELETE FROM tableName WHERE fieldName01 = 'blablabla' AND fieldName02 = 'etcetcetc'");like INSERT, there's a coding somewhat like this:
    String asd = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter blablabla stuff");
    statement.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO whatEverTableName (tableFieldName) VALUES('"+asd.getText()+"')");so, is it possible using the same method for DELETE??
    help and advices are appreciated in advanced..

    Here's how I did it. Research does help, but sometimes looking at others code does too... You do have to have a dummy file that you made with access though. You can't just make a file file.mdb (it will be corrupt)
         public void createDatabase(String database) throws SQLException{
              try{
                   // This file needs to have been created with MS Access
                   File dbfile = new File(this.dataBaseDir + "dummy.mdb");
                   // This is the new database file being made
                   File newFile = new File(this.dataBaseDir + database + ".mdb");
                   // Copy all bytes from dummy file to new DB file.
                   FileInputStream instream = new FileInputStream(dbfile);
                   FileOutputStream ostream = new FileOutputStream(newFile);
                   int numBytes = instream.available();
                   byte inBytes[] = new byte[numBytes];
                   instream.read(inBytes, 0, numBytes);
                   ostream.write(inBytes, 0, numBytes);
              catch(FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace();}
              catch(IOException e) { e.printStackTrace();}
              if(DEBUG) System.out.println("creating the " + database + " database");

    Hi Prasad,
    Please explain in clear english as to what is your requirement. I got lost after "two company user" . I suppose it means there are users from two separate company: A and B. They were using same portal till now: http://commonportal:50000/irj/portal.
    Now they need different urls - specific for each company say companyAportal.com and companyBportal.com. But still the same old common portal in the end.
    If that's your requirement please search the forum with correct terms, else "Google".
    Thanks,
