Maintaining username and passwords in RAM

I need to be able to maintain a small list of usernames and passwords in memory after users logoff. I can't persist them to disk. What is the best object to use for this? I'm thinking some type of application object. I'm working with Weblogic and need to get a reference to this object. --Thanks for any help.

What type of app do you have - Web App, Client/Server?
In either case, it seems you could create a container object during startup as a singleton and r/w the credentials to it.

Maintaining username and Id in Entire Application

Hi,
I am using REST web service. Once they login they will give username and password. (Username should be keep in all service.)
By using this username i can take the contextId from the database table. Now I am having username and contextId in the First service. Response of this service is contextId and success information.
For Second request they will give only contextId (they will get it from first request). here is the problem. Now I need username and userId for executing the query for current Request.
How can i get username. condition for single contextId has lot of username. Now I need Logged username.
Regards,
john

John,
what i am saying is can we keep the requires values in some scope variable so that it would be maintained through out the session/pageflow?

SOAP Lookup with username and password

I am doing a lookup using a Java UDF from PI message mapping using a SOAP receiver channel by passing a username and password to get a value from a webservice. This is passed to a field in the target side. Everything works fine.
But I want to avoid hardcoding the username and password sent in the XML for the lookup in the UDF. Anyone has any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi Param,
Are you passing the userid and password in url of SOAP Lookup? You can try using value mapping to get the password for a given username..
Else maintain it in SOAP channels and for each user id try selecting a different SOAP channel.. HEre also you can use value mapping for userid = soapchannel relationship.

Script Updater to change username and password

Can the script updater change the username and password for a bunch of test? I tried using the Global search and replace but it was not able to find the string. Please help?

If the password is stored in the test it's self you can find it by opening the test file xxx.mom and preform there a search and replace.
Perhaps it's better to connect the password to a variable by connecting it to a databank source. So the password is stored only once. Saves a lot of maintainance.

Username and password for configuration assistant

I've installed the web configuration assistant for the first time and am being prompted for a username and password. What am I supposed to use? I've tried several. Thanks.

I don't think so. It's the web application to maintain Oracle Utilities application users and access among other things. I found the problem. First, I was missing the proper access (env_access) and a row was missing in env_code. Thanks.

Using a username and password to access the network

Dear gents,
i am trying to make the access to the network via 2 things : SSID's key first , then using a username and password to connect, or at least username and password.
i have aironet 1130ag , and 40 users.
Any suggestions..

SSIDs are unique identifiers that identify a WLAN network. Wireless devices use SSIDs to establish and maintain wireless connectivity. SSIDs are case-sensitive and can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Do not use any spaces or special characters in an SSID.
A client can gain access to the network only if the client password matches the AP password.

How to encrypt username and password before transmit on client side

I want to encrypt the username and password at client side when user login to my page first and then send to server.
Could anybody tell me how to do it?
Thanks a lot.

Yup , What suggested is true...
The HTTPs authentication type is mainly for encrypting..
This is an extract from the book i have which states how you can do that...
UNDERSTANDING AUTHENTICATION MECHANISMS
HTTPS Client authentication :
HTTPS is HTTP over SSL (Secure Socket Layer). SSL is a protocol developed by
Netscape to ensure the privacy of sensitive data transmitted over the Internet. In this
mechanism, authentication is performed when the SSL connection is established
between the browser and the server. All the data is transmitted in the encrypted form
using public-key cryptography, which is handled by the browser and the servlet container
in a manner that is transparent to the servlet developers. The exam doesn�t
require you to know the details of this mechanism.
Advantages
The advantages of HTTPS Client authentication are
� It is the most secure of the four types.
� All the commonly used browsers support it.
1 Actually, instead of the password, an MD5 digest of the password is sent. Please refer to RFC 1321 for
more information.
Disadvantages
The disadvantages of HTTPS Client authentication are
� It requires a certificate from a certification authority, such as VeriSign.
� It is costly to implement and maintain.

ICM ADMIN username and password

Hi frnds
I have installed SAPNW7.0ABAPTrialSP12 on my system. I have started the application server and it works fine but when i click on ICM in MMC it is asking me to enter ICM ADMIN username and password.
What needs to be entered please let me know?
Thanks

1.      As user <sid>adm go to the directory where the executables are kept and call up icmon ‑a pf=<instance profile> .
The following appears:
Maintain authentication file
============================
File name (icmauth.txt):   .
       2.      If you are happy with the default file name, press the enter key, otherwise enter a different file name or path.
       3.      In the next menu choose a (add user to set).
       4.      Enter the user name, then the password twice, the group name, the subject of the X.509 certificate (wildcards allowed, and it can be left empty).
User Name: icmadm
Enter Password: *****
Re-enter Password: *****
Group name: admin
Subject Value of Client Cert: CN=template,*
new entry locally created
The user created is in group admin, the user is therefore an administration user without administration authorization. In particular this user can create further users in the Web admin interface.
If you select another group name other than admin, create a monitoring user that can monitor, but not administrate, the ICM/Web Dispatcher.
If you want a user to be able to log on only with the X.509 client certificate, you can enter an x as the password (with queries), which makes the following entry (in the example) in file:
icmadm:x:admin:CN=muster,*
       5.      Choose s (save changes of set to file), to copy your changes from the local buffer to the authorization file.
       6.      Choose q, to quit the program.

DW 11.0.4 won't save site usernames and passwords

After upgrading to 11.0.4, usernames and passwords vanished for all of my sites. I re-entered, tested and they all worked properly. But the next time I opened DW, they were blank again. Any help would be appreciated as I maintain several non-profit sites.

Hi, gatorf8. Welcome to the Adobe user-to-user forums!
I am sorry to hear you are having this issue, and I would like to help you get this sorted.
Since installing the 11.0.4 update, have you completely restarted your computer?
If you do so, your login credentials should re-appear as they were before updating.
See this document for some additional information:

Reporting Services username and password prompting

We have several branch office locations and one reporting services server. All of the branch office locations can access the reporting services server, but we have one location for the passed week, each time they make a connection to this server, it prompts
them for a username and password and will not allow them to connect even if the correct username and password is correct.
I have tried adding the server to the IE intranet/trusted site list. Set IE security on all zones to automatically logon with current username and password.
What is strange is that this is the only branch office site that is having this issue. It is almost like kerberos is broken for this site location only.
DOes anyone has any suggestions what could be causing this problem for all computers in this one location. Nothing has changed on their local servers nor have we pushed any updates to the machines.

Hi bubba1984,
As per my understanding, I think this issue is caused by Kerberos authentication. Kerberos is an authentication protocol that allows clients that create authentication tokens to associate a specific destination to that token. In the failure case, there is
a mismatch between the destination specified in the token and the report server process configuration. Due to this mismatch, the underlying Kerberos authentication scheme supported by Windows prevents report server from authenticating the user.
To fix this issue, please try to remove RSWindowsNegotiate and ensure RSWindowsNTLM is specified in the rsreportserver.config file. For more details, please take the following article as reference:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/lukaszp/archive/2008/03/26/solving-the-reporting-services-login-issue-in-the-february-ctp-of-sql-server-2008.aspx
Hope this helps.

Single sign-on and different usernames and passwords

Hello,
I am building a Portal with WLPS 3.5 and WLS 6.0. I tried to get
information about the background of single sign-on.
I understand, that I need a Realm (i.e. LDAP Realm) to authenticate the
user for the first login to the portal (with username and password).
Now I would like to integrate my webmail-programm (to get emails from
Lotus Notes via Internet) as a portlet.
For my understanding the user has to authorizate to get access to webmail.
Therefore I create a ACL for webmail and this ACL is assigned to my
security Realm.
I would like the portlet to show after login the number of mails for the
specific user. But where are the username and password for webmail stored
and how are they received and forwarded?
I understand that my ACL included all users that have access to webmail
(i.e. all users). But I only want emails for the specific user.
Does WLS get all usernames and passwords while the first login? Do I have to
implement a algorithmen to get the specific username and password for the
requested resource in my portlet?
Has anyone solved a similar problem or can tell me where I can get more
information. I read the WebLogic Security document but I cant find a
answer to my questions.
Thanks
Lydia

Lydia,
I'm not an expert in this area, but I can give you a start.
As for single sign-on, there are different levels. For single sign-on across web-apps,
the servlet spec requires this (section 12.6 of th 2.3 spec) and therefore Weblogic
does this.
What you are talking about is single sign-on across back-end applications through
a web-app. BEA has partnered with Securant (just acquired by RSA) to provide this
kind of functionality. Browse to http://www.rsasecurity.com/products/ and look
at the ClearTrust product. BEA has also partnered with Netegrity (www.netegrity.com)
with their SiteMinder product. Neither is included in the Weblogic license. I'm
sure either vendor would be excited to explain how their product will solve your
problem if you give them a call.
As for where the username and passwords are stored, that is up to the realm. If
you are using the default WLPS RDBMSRealm, the username and encrypted password
are stored in the WLCS_USER table. If you are using LDAPRealm, they are stored
in your LDAP server.
Hope this was useful!

Can someone explain where the usernames and passwords for a user are

If you don't mind using a library, then download and use the Apache HttpClient library. It takes care of all these details for you.

I have tried EVERYTHING (well, nt everything, I don’t have the fix I suppose).
I found plenty out there and nothing directly correlates with this issue.
I searched on all parts of the errors I got.
This contains an interesting blurb about setting up access for the apppool id correctly.
That’s not the case for me. It works in dev and the same id are used there.

Hi.
You say its a multiserver farm, do you have more than one web server then?
If thats the case, have you tried accessing the site on each server directly?

I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

I have a iphone 5 and I can login with my apple id to purchase music. However, when I try to login into icloud using the very same username and password that I use in the apple store it does not work to enter icloud, so what what gives???

I could do that, however when I select the icloud button (or whatever the heck it is) I am asked to enter the apple id and password. So if you are suppose to create another one for icloud you'd think it would give you the option at this point which would be logical.
