LDAP- When importing a Group it goes into Security Users and not Groups.

Hello,
I created a new LDAP Server
cn=GroupBI,OU=Groups,OU=Systems,OU=Milan,OU=Italy,OU=Countries,DC=u,DC=a,DC=g
Connection Test was ok.
The problem is on importing members of my group, on Security Import window instead of having the group drop-down list populated I have the user drop-down list populated with "GroupBI".
If I import this group (considered as a user by BI) it goes into Security > Users and not Security > Groups.
This does not make sense.
I'm sure this "GroupBI" is a group and not a user and the atribute type used is sAMAccountname
Any help?
Cheers

Let me tell how we did Authentication using LDAP
I havent imported any groups or users once the LDAP is set up and connection was successfull. I simply created the session variables USER DISPLAYNAME EMAIL and mapped to LDAP Variables uid, displayname, mail.
Authentication is done in this way by mapping the OBIEE variables to LDAP variables instead of importing the groups.
Now for Authorization I created the groups populated using some db tables and captured the group name and loglevel and applied filters on the group in the rpd for data level and permissions on the group in webcat for object level.
So just for Authentication purposes I think we can authenticate with out really importing groups as long as you map OB variables to LDAP
hope it helps

    Hi Ben,
    I had the same problem. If you go into the INTERNAL workspace, mail settings, make sure it is pointing to your mail server there and not "localhost". Here is my post:

  • When Login to apps it goes to AppsLocalLogin.jsp and not Home page

    Hi Friends,
    When i Login to oracle apps using the following URL it says Page Cannot be displayed http://hostname:port . But when i login to login page it goes fine. that is
    http://vis.hostname:8000/AppsLocalLogin.jsp then it goes fine to the Login page. Could any one say what may be the reason.
    Thanks

    Saravanan,
    First of all, check Apache log files for any errors (especially access_log file).
    $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/logs
    $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/logs
    $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/logs/jvm
    Clear the log files (take a backup first), reproduce the issue, then check the log files contents.
    If no errors can be found in the log files, then you may try the note referenced above (you can postpone this for now until you verify the log files contents).
    index.html file can be located under $COMMON_TOP/portal/<CONTEXT_NAME> directory.

  • I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash.  When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb.  How can I save just the 33 sec clip?

    I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash.  When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb.  How can I save just the 33 sec clip?

    Non-destructive editing is an important feature of iMovie HD 6.
    iMovie preserves the entire copy of every clip you place into your movie in case you change your mind at a later stage.
    So, if you have cut out one minute from a 45 minute clip, iMovie will have stored two complete copies of that clip. This is why is helps to set import as 3-5 minute clips rather than one huge chunk. As DV runs at 13GB per hour your project files can get very big.
    One workaround is to complete the editing of a section of the movie, then export that to Quicktime: highlight the clip/s, choose Share-Quicktime, turn on Share selected clips only, and choose Full Quality from the pop-ip menu.
    Once you have saved the stand-alone clip to your hard drive, you can re-import it into your project using the File/Import command, and delete the original long clip/s from the project.

  • How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
    It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

    I am trying to import cr2files from the camera into lightroom 5 and keep getting an error message saying Lightroom can not read the files and therefore will not import them.  Has anyone had a similar problem….thanks

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

    Ever since I updated my iPhone 4S and my iPad 2 to IOS 6 all my iMessages are coming to both my iPhone and my IPad. How do I stop the iMessages I send and receive on my phone from receiving on my iPad as well? I have tried going into my settings and making sure I'm only set up to receive iMessages to my cell number and not my email....but that didn't fix the problem.

    Here the way to do it, for both, or for only one Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

  • Macbook spontaneously goes into sleep mode and screen off mode

    Hi. My Macbook spontaneously goes into sleep mode and screen off mode with varying time between each instance. It usually goes for a few minutes or even hours without doing it and then will go through periods of fluctuation between the modes. I believe this to have started with a minor orange juice accident rather than it being anything software related.
    Any ideas as to how I might rectify the problem? Thanks very much in advance,
    Danny

    When you say it goes into sleep mode ...do you mean you actually see the white pulsing light?
    It may be that there is an application running (perhaps in the background) that is keeping your book awake. Printer software sometimes does this for example ...try logging out and seeing if it sleeps like that. If it does, then it very well may be a background process running.
    You may find some items in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items that may be the culprit.

  • My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

    My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

    That's normal behavior. It turns off automatically in order to preserve the battery. Pushing the On/Off button turns it on immediately. This also requires entering the passcode and prevents the phone from being accessed by anyone but you.
