Managing user groups

Hi, I have just begun to look into Connect as an LMS solution for an upcoming project. I will have a number of user groups - different clients (companes) that I will want to have organized with access permissions. is there an area in Connect where I can manage this? For example can I add 50 people in company A to a preset list and then push an eLearning module/lesson to them?
If there is a manual you could direct me to that adresses this that would be great as well.
Best, Steve

Sorry Just found this, you can delete this thread - sorry! :-)

Managing users, groups and shares with Mavervicks server

I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard Server to Mavericks.
In Snow Leopard, WorkGroup manager was the primary way to create shares, users and groups. Now it would seem that it is optional and in fact, I do not even see how to create a share in WorkGroup except for perhaps a group share which I'm not quite sure how to do.
For my setup, I have setup Open Directory and create a few Local Network users. DHCP is managed via my airport and the DNS is on but only for server and points to my Airport IP address.
QUESTIONS:
Should I be managing users with WorkGroup manager or server app, Whats the advantage?
I don't have user profiles (files) stored on the server they are local. That being the case, why does each user have a network folder on the server?
Thanks!

Workgroup Manager and MCX are deprecated. These technologies should only be used if you can not accomplish your tasks with Server.app and Profile Manager. If you have specific requirements that can not be satisfied in Server.app and Profile Manager you should send feedback to Apple.
So to your questions:
Should I be managing users with WorkGroup manager or server app, Whats the advantage?
I don't have user profiles (files) stored on the server they are local. That being the case, why does each user have a network folder on the server?
1: Ideally, no. Unless... You are supporting machines prior to 10.8.5 or can not find an equivalent function in Server.app and Profile Manager. There is no advantage to using it. Apple will eventually stop distributing it. It is available now for legacy support only. If you have a need for MCX management then WGM remains viable. But, ideally, you should be looking to Profile Manager.
2: This is because you created your accounts using Local Home Folder template instead of None - Services Only. The Local Home Folder template has the unfortunate side-effect of creating a user home folder on the server. I too dislike this. If you only want to use the accounts for services, then you should create the accounts using None - Services Only. By the way, it is safe to delete these home folders if you would like.

Cannot Manage User Groups for sampleportal

Hi:
Hopefully someone has seen this and has a solution. We've installed the sampleportal
application and have begun to add portal pages and new portlets as a proof of concept.
We're trying to entitle a portlet to a specific User Group. The groups exist.
However, clicking on the User Group Mgmt. link yields a NullPointerException. Trying
to edit a user brings up the Edit User Attributes page with the link to edit the
password, but another NullPointerException for the Property Sets and Properties associated
with REAPVisitor1 Edit portion.
Hopefully someone has an idea. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Chris
The error text for the User Group Mgmt. is:

Restricting Queries in HR: Compensation Management User Group

I am trying to restrict the Infoset /SAPQUERY/HR_XX_CM_03, which contains salary/compensation queries, assigned to User Group /SAPQUERY/H0, from being accessed by anyone. In SQ03, user group /SAPQUERY/H0, there are no users assigned but users with access to SQ01 can select the user group /SAPQUERY/H0 and access the queries tied to infoset /SAPQUERY/HR_XX_CM_03. Why are users able to access the infosets of the user group when no users are assigned to the user group?

Turns out that security authorization for access to SQ01 had an S_QUERY value of 02 which allows for full change. With this value the user group/user assignments done via sq03 did not work. Setting S_QUERY to 23 allows for user group assignment to restrict access in sq01

Professional Users Groups?

I have recently transitioned to a team that supports Streaming and live content for our company. We use Streaming Media Services, with the intent to move to IIS Media Services.
Are there professional users groups for this service? While supporting Configuration Manager I belonged to the Houston Area Systems Management Users Group (HASMUG), and attended events such as MMS and System Center Universe. I was wondering if
similarly focused groups exist to support Streaming Services.

Care to share what the error message said and which OS system you are using?

Creating User Groups

Hi All,
How can I create User groups in Application Express 4.0.1.00.03.
I am not able to find the link for creating User groups after logging in as found in the Help:
1.Log in to Oracle Application Express. See "Logging In to Oracle Application Express" in Oracle Application Express Application Builder User's Guide.
The Workspace home page appears. Note I have logged in as administrator for Internal Workspace.
2.Click the Administration icon. - Not able to find
The Administration page appears.
3. From the Tasks list, click Manage User Groups. - Not able to find
The User Groups page appears.
Thanks & Best Regards
Arif Khadas

Hello Arif,
>> Note I have logged in as administrator for Internal Workspace
You should login to your working workspace as a developer with workspace administrator privileges. At the Application Builder home page you’ll see the Administration icon, and within it the Manage Users and Groups icon. In this module, you should select the Manage User Groups Task.

Arie.

WinRMRemoteWMIUsers_ vs. Remote Management Users

Hi,
I'm not sure about the differences between these two local groups on a Windows Server 2012 or if they are nested somehow. Membership in one of these group is sufficient to access a remote server via Server Manager. I can see the 'Remote management users'
group in the PSSessionConfiguration, but I cannot see the WinRMRemoteWMIUsers_. How does it work?
Many thanks!

See the following technet info:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn579255.aspx#BKMK_WinRMRemoteWMIUsers_
"The WinRMRemoteWMIUsers_ group allows running Windows PowerShell commands remotely whereas the Remote Management Users group is generally used to allow users to manage servers by using the Server Manager console."

How do I get system users/groups to appear in the Workgroup Manager list?

When I open the Workgroup Manager and select the Users tab, it only shows users set up in the Workgroup Manager -- same when I browse Groups. But, I also have a couple system users/groups set up not in the workgroup manager, but through the OS's System Preference interface for Users.
Is there a way to automatically have System users appear in the Workgroup list?
I also can't add users to System groups, since the groups also won't appear in the Workgroup Manager (like adding a user to the group Admin or Staff -- default system groups).
I'd just like the option to "show System users and groups" somewhere.
Thanks.
Patrick

Hi
If I understand your post correctly then launch WorkGroup Manager and select Preferences from the WorkGroup Manager Menu. Enable the Show "All Records" tab and inspector option and click OK. In the Users/Groups/Computer tab you should now see the addition of another icon - it looks like a bullseye. Select this and under the filter field selecting 'AccessControls' will show you a long list. Scroll down and select Users. Now go back to the Users tab and you should see all users visible and invisible. You’ll see the same thing for Groups.
You will see different Users and Groups depending which directory node you are in. In the LDAP node you should only see Directory and System Administrator as well as VPN MPPE Key Access User in addition to any user you have created within that node. In the local Net Info node you should see users such as Amavisd User, Clamav User, Cyrus IMAP User etc. You’ll also see UIDs and GUIDs amongst a wealth of other information if you select a user or group and select the Inspector tab.
You can modify record attribute and values as well as adding your own. You can even use WGM in the same way you would use Net Info Manager locally if you wish.

Is there a way in 10.8 Profile Manager to assign certain users the sole right of adding/removing users to user groups?

Hello,
I want to assign certain network users the ability to login via browser to the profile manager for 10.8.x server and add/remove other users from user groups. Think teachers managing their class rosters, if the class was a group and the users their students. I do not want any other admin funtionality beyond that for them.
Suggestions?

Well thank you for being so polite. Yes, on looking on my 10.8 server, I have the same thing. How annoying. I have no idea how to answer your question. If the management abilities are no longer in Workgroup Manager then there's a change that the server doesn't pay any attention to the settings, so manually changing settings in LDAP won't have any effect either.
At least I can verify that it's not just you who gets that result. I wonder what happened and how we're meant to do this now.

Nested AD User Groups in Workgroup Manager not working in Mavericks

The setup is the traditional Golden Triangle, so Active Directory for users and groups, Open Directory for Managed Preferences. Both Apple clients and server are running 10.9.0
While I can successfully manage the Mac's via OD computer groups, the OD user groups with nested AD groups no longer appear to work. If I nest an AD user it works fine, but not the AD users group.
This is a new AD and new OD, no migrations. This is a setup I've done countless times over the years, but since Mavericks has been introduced, I can no longer make this work.
Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks,
Alex Price

Hello
I have been having the same problem, when adding an AD Group to an OD group the users in the AD group are not managed, but if i add the user to the OD group it works fine, (with about 5000 active users this is not an option) this has been a problem with 10.9 and has not been fixed with 10.9.1, i assume we need a update to Workgroup manager?
Maverick server is useless at the moment, cant upgrade the clients to Maverick if i cant manage them, are Apple just tring to make my job more difficult than it needs to be, i was happy that they provided Workgroup Manager for Mavericks because Profile Manager is simple not an option, but it would be good if it worked properly, its not a small problem so you would think apple would make it a priority.

WLCS USer/Group Management

Hi,
I am having a problem with the WLCS3.1 UserManagement part.
The application we are buildin basically consists of two pieces, Internet
and extranet( site
accessible to our customers/partners by logging in).
The internet part has couple of forms that our prospect customers submit and
this user profile information gets stored in Oracle.
The second piece isour extranet, which works in sync with our Customer
Relationship Management appliction. The users information is put into
Netscape DirectoryServer(NDS) by our CRM application ans we just use it for
authentication and single sign on into both the application.
Since the User Management system works in conjunction with the WebLogic
Server's security realm (which happens to be LDAP for us), we cannot store
user/groupes anymore into oracle by using JSP taglibraries.
My question is, if we can store just the user (and password) in NDS LDAP and
the
GROUP and profile in WebLogic and personalize the content based on this
info.?
If so, what is the best workaround for this..
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Tracy,
Are you trying to create property sets?
If you are trying to create a user/group property set, then you do that with the EBCC tool. See the "Site Infrastructure" tab and
use
File --> New --> Site Infrastructure --> User Profile to create a new one. See "Creating a Property Set Definition" at
http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs70/dev/usrgrp.htm#998997 .

AD security groups listed in user groups in Config Manager however not listed when selecting values for the "System Resource - System Group Name" query

Morning All,
We are in the process of setting up our SCCM 2012 infrastructure and are experiencing issues with our device collection querys based on AD security groups.
I can see the security groups are being updated per adsgdis.log - i can see the computers that are members of the groups in AD are being recorded in the same log. Issue is when we build the device collection query - click the value button for the string,
only 2 of the 18 AD security groups are displayed. These are 2 AD groups we setup initially to test.
We have since added several additional yet they only appear to populate as user groups in config manager.
The same goes for additional OUs that we have created with AD.
When i click the value button only the initial 10 OUs that were created are populating in the list of applicable OUs.
We have the discovery methods Group Discovery & System Discovery enabled and set to search the parent OU recursively
I'm wondering if there might be an SQL issue with this as it initially worked but stopped...
Additionally we added an OU recently that now appears in in the Values options in the query but the ones added previously and additionally after are not showing up....
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

Given the adsgdis.log lists the new pc and the group it's assigned to it appears the AD group discovery is working.
Have the following excert from the adsgdis.log

Here you can see it processes the new members in the Software - Microsoft Project Professional 2010 x64 group and captures Thurmanwin7vm as a member.
I did find some log entries that reference permission issues with objects in the SQL database and have opened a case with MS to get that looked into. Hopefully that will be where the issue lies.

Philadelphia VFP User Group--Tuesday, April 14--"Document Management within Visual FoxPro"

The Philadelphia VFP User Group meets Tuesday, April 14 at 7:00 PM in room 104, DeVry University, 1140 Virginia Drive, Fort Washington, PA. As usual, feel free to bring some dinner and come as early as 6:30 PM.
This month, member Jim Connolly will speak on “Document Management within Visual FoxPro.”
Abstract: I created programs that will create an electronic filing system. The programs read the bar codes from the invoices and files them in electronic storage. This allows the end user to view the documents with a single click in the app. I will show the
class how to setup the bar code reader and to accept individual scans for easy access. There are some recommended programs that will assist in the process. I will present them along with the Fox Pro program.
We need speakers for upcoming meetings. Please let Jim ([email protected]) know if you have something to share with the group.

Manage Users and -groups

Hi all,
I try to manage Users and -groups not with workspace administration but by HTML_UTIL. So I need to display all of the Usergroups and select mor than one group for a user and insert/edit this groups for the user.
How can I select mor than 1 item from a LOV? and use it with HTML_UTIL.CREATE_USER and HTML_UTIL.EDIT_USER
Thanks for yout help
Siegwin

Not sure if this is what you're asking, but certainly, one of the things you'd need to do is write your own PL/SQL procedure that loops through the selected rows of your UI element (whether it be a multi-select list, checkboxes or whatever) and perform the actions that you require.
Have you attempted anything yet? What parts of this do you need help with?
