Making a password "unchangable" by user

Hi,
I am trying to get a user with linked accounts still be able to unlock accounts of his but not be able to change the password on them.
i.e. user goes into self.service and wants to change password on his accounts, simple or synced
specific accounts, marked by an admin, would NOT have their password replaced.
I have tried to use account properties for this as seen in an earlier example, they are very easy to set and retrieve when you have the userview checked out, but seem almost impossible to reach at other times, as f.ex. in the change password forms....
also, disabling the accountline in the change password form doesn't matter, it still changes the password if the selectall checkbox is marked... even though this account doesn't havea checkbox in the form :P
So I suspect I need to work with the targets here...
I also saw some reference to a protected attribute that supposedly is supposed to stop IdM from changing on a resource, but I havent seen how to use that or even if it is on an account level or the whole resource...
Is there anyone out there that have mangled with this kind of stuff that can give me some hints on how to manage this?
/D

Well,
as in my other post, guess I will answer this myself...
I managed to do this by setting properties on the accounts then by using these properties to flag which accounts that has their selected checkbox markable/marked in the password change pages and seeing to that the selectall checkbox wont mark any off the non settable accounts, the rest of the normal provisioning will handle it by removing those targets from the password change list.
i.e. changes were made in Change User Password Form, End User Change User Password Form and User Form Library at the right places to make use of those properties.

How to change password of sys user connected as sysdba?

How to change password of sys user connected as sysdba?
I have connected with user name sys as sysdba in oracle 9i with password oracle.
I want to change the password . I typed password and pressed entered. It asks me to type old password, then new password and retype the new password. When I press enter it gives error message "ERROR:
ORA-28008: invalid old password"
Password unchanged.
does anyone know about this...? how to change the password..?

You may be using operating system authentication to log in as sys with sysdba privileges.
By using password utility, you can change the password of sys user (which is in database) which is "change_on_install" when you create a database.
You can change this password.

My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve .....

My AppStore id is my apple id n password which is good when purchasing. But when I am updating from update option it ask for a password. The user id I see there is not mine, it's different. How do I change that to my apple Id? Please help me resolve this issue. I have tried resetting it but nothing... Either I'm doing something wrong or....

I believe the issue is with the Apple ID that was used to purchase the App. If you download an App that was purchased under a different Appple ID then all updates will also be linked to the original purchaser's Apple ID. Your Apple ID is the the same ID as your iTunes, iCloud, etc. Some folks use different ID for the different Apple sites. No need for that One ID for all Apple Sites, and if someone else buys an App using their ID and they(you) download that App onto your device and that App requires an update it will ask for the purchasers Apple ID. This happens a lot when folks sell their iPad or give it to someone else and leave some purchased(free) Apps on the iOS device. You cannot change the original ID the App was purchased under. A suggestion would be if someone else has an App that you like but do not want to pay for use their ID or in the future have them gift the App to you.

PROBLEMS SETTING UP EMAILS AS DEVICE REFUSES TO RECOGNISE PASSWORD AND/OR USER NAME

PROBLEMS SETTING UP EMAILS AS DEVICE REFUSES TO RECOGNISE PASSWORD AND/OR USER NAME
My 9800 ( I have 2 - one spare ) is driving me nuts- will not let me set up email accounts from my other Curve model.
Repeatedly told that either user name or details are wrong, yet they are RIGHT on website.
Exasperated
Help please??
Fair winds and kind landfalls

Thank you- I have read through that thread and can see some resonance with my issue.
My AOL emails work VERY fast with BB, in fact almost simultaneously received on PC & Torch " ping ping!"
This issue only raised its ugly head when I had 2 Torches replaced by my insurers.
Whilst the claim was in process I used a new Curve, loaded from backup on PC to keep emails going and of course phone & web facilities. ( I use the BB to power internet via bluetooth to my PC / laptop when living on a remote island with no phone lines or power supplies) All was fine. Swapping email accounts took a few minutes with the usual password confirmations for each AOL screenname etc.
Then the new Torches came back from insurers, and I tried to swap devices. Phoning & texting is fine. Al data and contacts swap over fine.
SETUP email accounts.............stymied every time. It says repeatedly that my user name/password is invalid etc etc etc
Have tried security wipes. Have tried setting up new BB ID & passwords on PC website. All is OK until I try to setup emails on the Torches. This has used up ridiculous amounts of time- all wasted.
I love the BB phones and the fast email push......in fact I recently bought a new Sony Xperia Z1 but sent it back because of wifi coverage meant no emails on that superb phone for lots of the time.
Good old BB I said..........I always get emails wherever I am. ( Rural Scotland has very patchy radio & wifi coverage)
Was about to purchase new Z10s just to get a bigger screen, but now I am averse to buying ANY BB phone again because this present mess means I may never get emails set up again. How nuts is that?
Many thanks for all help & suggestions..........boy do I need them!!
Kind wishes from West of Scotland

How to programmatically set initial password when a user is created in OID

We are using the odihragent synchronization process to automatically create users in OID when an employee record is created. We would like to set the initial password for the newly created user to their last name + the last 4 digits of their SSN.
The odihragent process is successfully creating the user in OID and populates the last name and the last 4 digits of the SSN in OID. According to an open SR I have with Oracle, we cannot use the odihragent process to set the initial password because any time the employee record is updated, the synchronization process will reset the password to last name + SSN. They have recommended that we use a pl/sql plug-in to set the password using the WHEN_ADD plug-in procedure.
I am new to using OID and plug-ins and the examples provided in the Developer's Guide are limited.
I would like to know if anyone else is using plug-ins or another process to set initial passwords when a user is created? If you are using plug-ins would you be willing to share a code sample?

I am surprised that I have not received any responses... Surely there are others who are experienced with programmatically setting passwords when new users are programmatically created. Does anyone have any pointers on how to best accomplish this?

Firefox is not prompting to save password for specific user on specific site. How can I correct this?

I am using saved passwords feature. The site in question is a common webmail site. I have more than one account for this site. Usernames and passwords for each account were stored in Firefox 'Remember Passwords' feature. I unintentionally deleted one entry from the dropdown list that is displayed when I go to the site's login page. Now, when I log in to this account, Firefox will not prompt to save the password. If I display my saved passwords list, there are entries for the other accounts on this site, but none for the user account in question. The Saved Passwords 'Exceptions' list is empty. How can I get Firefox to re-prompt to save the password for this user on this site? (Note: When I speak of 'user', I am not referring to user account on the PC or a specific Firefox user profile.)

I am using Avast free version. Today I removed the LAN cable out of the 24 port switching hub and plugged directly into the router port. Now the program runs fast when checking for emails. Looks like all the emails are showing up. I do have other computers plugged into the switching hub with no problems. The hub is brand new. My thinking is the cable connector might be to blame. I will try re-crimping the wires. As for now, things are running good. I will keep investigating. Thanks

How can I change the password for the USER in SAP.

How can I change the password for the USER in SAP?
also I want to change the Language and date Format b/c it's displaying in German language..

Hi,
Assuming that User has already his/her user-id and password, and now he/ she wants to change it.
select the client and provide Log-in credentials. Now, instead of 'ENTER' there is one Tab: 'New Password' (up, left hand). Click it.
Now, system will ask for new password to change.
If you are asking from Basis point of view, then T.code: SU01 - User Maintenance.
Enter User's id and Click Change icon.
It will lead to Page: Maintain User.
Here, Select tab: Logon Data
There is a Sub-Tab: Password.
Here, key-in change password and SAVE.
For Language and Date format, contact your Basis-Personnel.
Best regards,
Amit

Two things. First, I'm not exactly sure what password you are trying to
change. The LDAP server's password or a user's password in the LDAP
server. Second, could you please post a stack trace.

Hai,
This condition based execution requires - javascript coding.
In miscelleaneous tools bar, you have an option of SCRIPT_ITEM writer tool, drag the tool into your WAD layout, and select the properties , choose the editor option and paste your coding. that's it.
Alternate option :

Hope this will help to you.

So I just bought a used MacBook from Amazon with OSX 10.5.8. I am trying to install new software and operating system, but I don't have the passwords to the Users set up in the computer. What do I do?

Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Reset Password. After resetting the password use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for startup and restart.

You could download and install RCDefaultApp 2.1 for all users: check the Read Me and then test it on something to see if it accomplishes what you want.

Is it possible to reset password for any user using abap program

Hi friends,
Is it possible to reset password for any user using abap program by specifying client number and user id. in selection screen.
if any code for that to reset password please mail me.
Thanks & Regards,
Yogesh

Hello Yogesh,
Yes you can reset the password for any body using ABAP Code. But for that you really don't need any client number.
If this process is on regular basis, then recommended is to use BAPI for changing the user details Otherwise BDC also works fine.
=> Function Module - BAPI_USER_CHANGE
Call this in the program for resetting the password.
=> CALL TRANSACTION 'SU01' USING InternalTable
This will be executed in the BDC of SU01 transaction recording. Use the Password Change button in the application toolbar of transaction while recording.
Hope this helps.
PS If the answer solves your query, plz close the thread by marking it solved and rewarding each reply.
Regards

How do I change the password of a user in a group?

I've forgotten the password of a user that is located in a group on my computer. How can I change the password or delete the user?

Hi, depends what OSX version, but...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock...
There you can delete a user by highlighting it, or Rest the Password if you have an admin account.
