Is proxy user list dynamic?

Hi all,
I don't know if this post is in the right place. Think it is client (8.x) related...
Situation
We are currently about to begin moving a large number of users to newly created postoffices. The users will be moved from Groupwise 8.0.2HP3 to Groupwise 12.0.1 (Build Date: 09-06-12). In a test environment we've moved users from one post office to the other and the proxy user list seems to be static.
Question
Is there a way to change the proxy list automatically? I mean the one under the online button.
Any help greatly appreciated.
With kind regards,
Joost Brenters

Laura is correct - it's static and tends to break with moves.
There is no dynamic or gwcheck process that checks all of these and
rebuilds a list. The proxy list merely represents a snapshot in time. It
may be incomplete, and it may also include accounts that no longer
exists or to which access has been pulled. Think of the proxy list as a
browser bookmark list, and you'll get the idea.

How to pass Proxy user dynamically in Toplink proxy authentication?

Hi,
I'm using Toplink Proxy Authentication with my ADF JSF application and want to pass the Proxy user dynamically to the preLogin(..) method of mySessionEventListener (Currently proxy user is hard coded).
This is to make my application user as the Proxy user.
I have tried to do this in two ways:
1) In my Login screen Backing Bean, I retrieve the session as
session = sessionFactory.acquireSession(); and set the application user in it as
session.setProperty("proxyUser1", inputText1.getValue());
But,
session.getProperty("proxyUser1") returns null in the preLogin(..) method
2) I add a loginUser property to the mySessionEventListener class and create a constructor to set it.
Then I call the constructor from my Login Backing Bean as
mySessionEventListener eventMgr = new mySessionEventListener(<proxy_user>);
session.getEventManager().addListener( eventMgr );
But, the loginUser property seeems to be transient and does not retain value when retrieved in preLogin(..) method.
Please indicate if anything is wrong. Also, is there any other way to get this done?
Thanks in advance.
Vikas

Hi Vikas,
Probably your sessions.xml defines a ServerSession, and acquireSession method returns a ClientSession. ServerSession is the object that connects to the database, it may have any number of ClientSessions associated with it - all of them use connections provided by ServerSession's connection pools.
So if you'd like to alter the serverSession before login, acquireSession is too late - it triggers login of the ServerSession and returns a ClientSession.
To get the ServerSession before login:
// the first param indicates that the session shouldn't be connected
Session serverSession = sessionFactory.getSharedSession(false, false);Now you have a serverSession on which login hasn't been called yet.
You can set the property into the session, or directly into its login.
In fact you may choose to do whatever you wanted to do in preLogin right here - in this case no preLogin event would be required of course.
Finally to get a ClientSession, call the same api did:
// the first param indicates that the session shouldn't be connected
Session clientSession = sessionFactory.getSession();On the first such call the ServerSession will be connected.
Note that because all the ClientSessions will connect through the connections provided by the same ServerSession they will all use proxyUser1.
If you are interested in using different proxy users for different ClientSessions http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/toplink/doc/1013/main/_html/dblgcfg008.htm#BABDABCF lists several scenarios for that.

JDBC Dynamic Credential with proxy users

Hi
We've developed an application with Business Components and it's been working very well. We're using JDBC Dynamic Credential like explain the document (How to Support JDBC Dynamic Credentials - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/dynamicjdbchowto.html). Now we want to use proxy users with JDBC Dynamic Credentials. How can we
user proxy users with JDBC Credentials? What classes or parameters we need to change?
I've been tested proxy users a lot, but in simple java classes, I don't know where to set some parameters in business components, for example, where can I set the following parameters?:
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME
Thanks in advance
Liceth

Hi Frank, thanks again
Now we are using JDBC Credentials(like explain the paper http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/dynamicjdbchowto.html), every user connects to the application with a diferent database user and password, then at database level the administrator can see diferents usernames (not the same user). Every application user correspond to a database user, relation one to one. The application works fine with that configuration. But, now for performance we want to change our application to use proxy users, I read that with proxy users redirectec to a single user, then the pooling connections are well reused, and at database level you have diferent usernames. Our principal goal is use pooling (for performance) and see diferent usernames at database level, this for facilitate administration tasks and auditory .
We want that the application user autenticate with proxy users (username and password) but we have some problems because we don't know where specify that we're using proxy users. (The parameters OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME
OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME).
We want open our connections with the following code:
OracleOCIConnectionPool ods = new OracleOCIConnectionPool();
ods.setURL("jdbc:oracle:oci:@"+tnsAlias);
ods.setUser("user_application");
ods.setPassword("oracle");
java.util.Properties prop = new java.util.Properties();
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_MIN_LIMIT,"3");
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_MAX_LIMIT,"20");
prop.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.CONNPOOL_INCREMENT,"1");
ods.setPoolConfig(prop);
java.util.Properties userNameProp = new java.util.Properties();
userNameProp.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME,"Mark/123");
Connection conn = ods.getProxyConnection(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,userNameProp);
with other user
userNameProp.setProperty(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXY_USER_NAME,"Marty/123d");
Connection conn = ods.getProxyConnection(OracleOCIConnectionPool.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,userNameProp);
Thanks in advance

2012 SP3 Client - randomly expands proxy user folder list

Since Client 2012SP3, when going to a proxy user we noticed that the proxy mailbox randomly expands the folder list.
This is sometimes annoying, cause you have to close several folders every time.
Going back to the home mailbox we also noticed the expanding of the folder list. Going back to the same or another mailbox, the folder structure is wide open again.
Sometimes only one folder expands, sometimes several, sometimes all.
This happens to all clients and all proxy mailboxes. (users, resources).
Workaround: Rolling back to 2012SP2 the expanding problem has gone. The folder structure is just so as we left it behind last time. I can switch to several proxies, back to my mailbox, back to another proxy - no problem at all.
Anyone noticed this? Is any FTF SP3 client out there?
Client OS is Win7 - 64bit.

NAT slooows over time (2 days) for http users. Proxy users OK.

We recently applied NW6 sp4 to a stable BM 3.7 server. Now internal
dynamic NATed http users experience a progressive slow down over about 2
days at which time browsing is functional but not usable. Proxy users
still get screamingly fast performance.

Problem appears to be resolved. I applied BM37FP4A and after 3 days NATed
HTTP connections are normal. Proxy performance is still very fast. I had
previously reapplied bm37sp3 which did not solve the problem.
FYI: About 1/2 of our 800 or so connections use dynamic NAT. We plan on
switching all users to proxy this week. Thanks Craig.

I need to know how to set proxy exception list on remote pcs that are not on a domain controller

I currently manage approx 1,800 computers on a vpn network. They are not part of any AD. There are mixed service packs of XP mostly SP2 and SP3. They all access the internet via a proxy server. They are all running either IE6 (not many left) or IE8. I have
wrote a script to change the proxy exception list but not all of them have worked I have changed the following reg keys [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings] & [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings] & [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]. It seems in the ones that have not changed, the local SID account is the one in use and this has not changed because of its uniqueness. Is there a way either
scripting or a commercial package that I can use to write keys to ALL users. I'm not sure on the details of how to use local policy to set this or how I would be able to write a script that would import the settings from a text file or something. Can anyone
help with this matter.
Thanks

Well that is certainly not an easy task.
.Default is not the default user account. I do not recommend making changes there. HKLM is for the local machine which is probably your best bet for all users but if it is not propagating through that then it would have to be the current user since they
are not logged into a domain.
There is a way to update all the HKCU and there is a walk through here:
http://micksmix.wordpress.com/2012/01/13/update-a-registry-key-for-all-users-on-a-system/
Making this management simple I'd suggest joining a domain and using GPO but I understand if it is not an option.

How do I run a scheduled task as a specific user (proxy user)

I am a little stumped here.
We have some Taskdefinition that we can schedule so they run every N minutes or once a day and so forth... works fine...
How can I set which user it is supposed to run as?
I dont want it to run as me or any of the other admins, I wan tit to run as a specific proxy user so that it is easy to see which task that did what changes to a user or resource.
I know that the reconcilliations and active syncs can use a proxy account, and I noticed that I can change a tasks user by editing it in debug after it is scheduled.
But I would like to add it in the taskdefinition itself, trying to find info on how to do that....
either I am missing it in the manuals or I am blind...

OIM: Help Required --Assigning proxy user

Hi OIM Experts,
I have a requirement where, a user have to select another user in the organization as the proxy user.
But when I try to search for other users in the organization, the search result is null. Because of this, I cannot assign a proxy user other than manager??
Why is this happening. Are there any permissions to be granted ?? What are the limitations for this ??
Thanks in advance

See the posts of this thread Re: Approval reassignment to non-admin user in OIM? I think you can get more informations about the users listed when you search for...

How to find out the user list that created by someone?

Hi all:
Now I want to develop a program that can find out the user list created by someone.
such as :
John create 3 user in SAP ,they are u1,u2,u3.
Susan create 2 user in SAP , they are s1,s2.
I input the the parameter such as John , the program can give me the list :u1,u2,u3.
Could you tell me which table should I use in this program?
Thanks .
Elisa.

Hi Ling,
As per my understanding, you are looking for listing down the number of Users created by a particular users of the System. Like a System Administrator has created some 30 users. If this is correct, then you can use the table
USR02 - Logon Data (Kernel-Side Use). This table has 2 fields which are of importance - BNAME - User Name in User Master Record & ANAME - Creator of the User Master Record. You can query the ANAME with the username of the system and you will get the resultant users.
But I would reccomend to search the Table for a standard class, function module or RFC or BAPI so that you can reuse the same and need not to develop from the scratch.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
Samantak.

OSB db-adapter: how to pass a proxy user or something like this?

Hello, on OSB with a Oracle db-adapter, I'd like to do some database updates. Usually the db-adapter is set up with a technical database user.
But on database side, this way I don't know exactly which user has been updating my table because only the technical user will be inserted into "Created_by" Column
(select USER from dual ==> technical user).
Now I thougt about using Proxy Users. But there exists some other Problems:
- every proxy user has to be initially created in the database
- how can I pass proxy user and technical user from OSB to the database?
(using JCA, JNDI and JDBC Data Sources)
... on JDBC datasources I can only specify hard coded userid/password (--> technical user)
Any help would be appreciated. Maybe some good white papers or tutorial exists in the web, but I can't finde a good one.
Thanks
Best regards

You can pass in the adapter header property "jca.db.ProxyUserName". That way you can specify a user for each invoke.
I got confirmation that OSB supports setting these properties. The sample adapters-db-201-MovieImages on soasamples.samplecode.oracle.com > Adapters shows working with header properties but with Mediator.
Thanks

Proxy User - Forms 11.1.2 and Oracle Database (version 10.1.0.5) ??

Hi,
we are migrating from Forms 6i to 11.1.2. Our database version is very old (Enterprise Edition, version 10.1.0.5) because this is the latest version of the DB that Forms 6i runs, and we will migrating to 11g in phases. So 6i and 11g will co-exists for a while (accesing the same DB).
I am trying to use proxy users feature to login to database.
So I did this:
- I created a user PROXY_USR to be the proxy user:
SQL> create user PROXY_USR identified by PROXY_PASW;*
- I grant create session for the user:
SQL> grant create session to PROXY_USR;*
- I changed the application users (eg APPUSER01), to connect via proxy user:
SQL> alter user APPUSER01 grant connect through PROXY_USR;*
The comand in Forms module to login is:
+LOGON('PROXY_USR[APPUSER01]','PROXY_PASW@DB01');+*
The logon built is being performed and the connection being made, without erros.
But when I verify in what user the application is logged on, the result is not
what was expected:
I did the follwing PL/SQL inside Form module:
begin*
select user into v_user_DB from dual;*
MESSAGE('User Connected: '||v_user_DB,ACKNOWLEDGE);*
exception*
when others then*
MESSAGE('ERR: '||SQLERRM,ACKNOWLEDGE);*
end;*
The result from this select, is PROXY_USR and not APPUSER01 (that would be the correct):
*>>Result: "User Connected: PROXY_USR"*
Some more commands that were also performed inside Forms module:
begin+
select sys_context('userenv','current_user') v_current_usr from dual+
MESSAGE('Current User: '||v_current_usr,ACKNOWLEDGE);+
exception+
when others then+
MESSAGE('ERR: '||SQLERRM,ACKNOWLEDGE);+
*>>Result: "User Connected: PROXY_USR"*
begin+
select sys_context('userenv','proxy_user') v_proxy_user from dual;+
MESSAGE('Current User: '||v_proxy_user,ACKNOWLEDGE);+
exception+
when others then+
MESSAGE('ERR: '||SQLERRM,ACKNOWLEDGE);+
*>>Result: "Proxy User: "*
OBS: when a connect via SQL*Plus, in a 11g database (Express), and run the commands above, the results are OK. The
APPUSER01 is returned.
Any ideas ?? I will open a SR in Metalink, but I think they will first request a database upgrade,
which is not feasible for us at the moment ...
Thanks in Advance.
Franco

Unfortunately besides trying on a certified combination (maybe use the Developer Database VM and import the required schemas for trial) and going through the documentation at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24269_01/doc.11120/e24477/sso.htm I can't offer more. I don't have a 10gR1 database anymore and also I don't have OID to play with.

Sorting of user list in 'ACT AS' by displayname -OBIEE 11G

Hi,
I have configured 'ACT AS' successfuly in obiee 11g . We have written the following query to populate user name and displayname in the act as drop down .
<getValues>EXECUTE PHYSICAL CONNECTION POOL DAA2.DAA2 select USERNAME, DISPLAYNAME from SIEBEL_USERS </getValues>
With this query the list is getting ssorted by USERNAME .
However, our client expects the user list to be populated in the ascending order of the DISPLAYNAME.
I tried modifying the above query as below in the xml file to implement the same .
<getValues>EXECUTE PHYSICAL CONNECTION POOL DAA2.DAA2 select USERNAME, DISPLAYNAME from SIEBEL_USERS Order by 2 desc </getValues>
But the liste is still getting sorted by USERNAME. Could anyone give some pointers to achieve this requirement ?
Regards,
Karan

Thanks Veeravalli, I did exactly the same. Editing the registry didn't help so I deleted the service from registry and create it again and before that added the following in my installSVC file in the section you mentioned
set JAVA_VM=-server
set MEM_ARGS==-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m -XX:-UseSSE42Intrinsics
But it is still not working, I am getting the same error but now it says

one of the things I didn't mention though was that when I create the service, I run the installAdmServer_Service.cmd file as "Run as Administrator", only then the service gets installed. Can this be related to the fact that this windows service needs to be run under admin account? or Run as Administrator? I am guessing because I tried various heap sizes and also edited my setDomainEnv.cmd and commEnv.cmd file to use 1024 as heap size it but still didn't work and it is failing may be while loading the class? If that is the case then how to run this services as administrator? Am I missing anything else?
Thanks,
Ronny

How to populate a list dynamically

Being new b I am tasked on one project and I think I am making some progress on it. Currently I need to display some values in a list dynamically. The layout of the list is as follows:
Here is your class schedule for week 05/13/2006:
. Saturday
. Sunday
. Monday
a. Econimics-101
b. Maths-101
. Tuesday
. Wednesday
. Thursday
a. Arts-200
. Friday
Days are constant and only thing that will change is the course number. Any ideas or samples to do this? I have the code that pulls this information but don't know how to display it in a list form as shown above. Thanks

You have not provided enough information.
All I can say from what you have provided is:
Iterate over the list. Print each day's name. If that day contains schedule data, print that as well.
