MIASS
Subject: Manufacturing Information Access Software System (MIASS)
This memo is to announce the development of a new plant- wide software system. We are currently building a data warehouse that will contain all plant manufacturing data. The program is referred to as the "Manufacturing Information Access Software System" (MIASS).
Next Monday at 9:00 there will be a meeting in which I will show MIASS. We will continue to hold demonstrations throughout the month so that all employees will have an opportunity to get a good look at MIASS.
As for the status of the implementation of the program, I have not addressed the networking aspects so currently only one person can be in MIASS at a time. This should change as MIASS expands.
Several people are using the program already and have come to depend on it. Just this morning I walked into a subordinate's office and was not surprised to find that he had his nose buried in MIASS. I've noticed that some of the less technical personnel are somewhat afraid of MIASS. Just last week, when asked to enter some information into the program, I had a secretary say to me "I'm a little nervous, I've never put anything in MIASS before." I volunteered to help her through her first time and when we were through she admitted that it was relatively painless and she was actually looking forward to doing it again. She went so far as to say that after using SAP and Oracle, she was ready to kiss MIASS.
I know there are concerns over the virus that was found in MIASS upon initial installation, but I am pleased to say the virus has been eliminated and we were able to save MIASS. In the future, however, protection will be required prior to entering MIASS.
We planned this database to encompass all information associated with the business. So as you begin using the program, feel free to put anything you want into MIASS. As MIASS grows larger, we envision a time when it will be commonplace to walk by an office and see a manager hand a paper to an employee and say "Here, stick this in MIASS."
This program has already demonstrated great benefit to the company during recent OSHA and EPA audits. After requesting certain historical data the agency representatives were amazed at how quickly we provided the information. When asked how the numbers could be retrieved so rapidly our Environmental Manager proudly stated "Simple, I just pulled them out of MIASS".

Everyone has a MIASS...
The trick is to validate all input, encode all output and regularly apply patches from the software vendors

Kerberos Configuration Manager for SQL Server: Access of system information failed!

I'm trying to use the new Kerberos Configuration Manager for SQL Server tool that was released recently to verify SPN on several SQL Servers, but any time I attempt to connect to a server I get the following error in the log:
6/24/2013 3:48:22 PM Info: Connect to WMI, \\<HOSTNAME>\root\cimv2

Things I have tried to resolve this:
1. Verified that my account is a Domain Admin.
2. Attempt to connect locally without inputting any information for server/user/pw
3. Attempt to connect remotely using server/user/pw
I always receive the same error message and log: Access of system information failed!
Has anyone else run into this issue?

Update to this:
There were some invalid user accounts added to the Local Administrators group only showing up as a GUID. This caused the enumeration of the group to fail and generate the error in my original post. Removing those user accounts from the Administrators group
got past the enumeration error.
However, now when attempting to connect to the servers (locally or remotely) I get this error:

Bought a mac for my sons bday present of eBay :( it starts up in osx utilities screen, iv never seen the actual desktop(launch pad) I dnt know how to access the systemI know the basics for start up but says to delete files so I can dwnload the software?

AS above states the computer seems to run normally as far as turning it on, tabs & pages are fine. But I can't access the system to delete some files.. Which is what the 'error' keeps saying everytime I tr and download a helpful link/app or software.. The instal disc that seems to be stored on the comp says its mountain lion 10.8 install disk 'read only' & this is the only disc it gives me to select to startup.. I have the full software on USB as its very large.. So .. PLEASE TELL ME finally,
HOW to ... Access comp files to delete required memory for software install?? If this is the best option..
HOW to ... Erase everything on computer & install 10.8 via USB?
And when or what enables me to see and use this computer correctly..ie, launch pad? Etc..
PLease reply back in 'normal terms' as I'm already exceeding my boundaries of imac knowledge

First: no, you cannot use someone else's install DVD unless it is a retail version; all others are machine specific. It will not work and would be illegal.
Is this what you bought?
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac_cd_2.0_20.html
IF that is correct, then you are not on 10.8 because the highest OS it can go to would be 10.6
So, you'd either need the original install disks (preferred) or buy a retail Snow Leopard (10.6) - that is as high as you can go with that machine. And, your maximum RAM is 2 GB, so you couldn't go higher with the OS because of that either because it would not run well on 2 GB.
If you do get 10.6, then I'd suggest increasing the RAM to the max. of 2 GB.
If this is not the machine you got (maybe the seller just used any old box), then I'd suggest taking it to an Apple store/Genius Bar to have them sort out how to get out of this mess.

"Unable to access User Principal information from the System" error when trying to launch Kerberos Config. Mgr. on Win7 laptop

I am not able to launch the Kerberos Configuration Manager due to the above error.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

Hi,
Are you trying to connect to the remote machine?
There are a few limitations of Kerberos Configuration Manager tool.
The tool will only work in a single domain scenario. So, if you have the service installed in Domain A, but want to use a Service Account from Domain B, we won’t be able to discover and correct the issue appropriately.
Here is thread with the same error message:

How do you get permission for FlexLm/HASP to access the system clock?

I've got animation software that accesses the system clock to verify a security dongle. It works fine under 10.4.3, but I recently got a dual processor G5 with 10.4.5 on it. According to the s/w tech people, the dongle mgmt s/w doesn't have permission to access the system clock because of new security fixes. Anybody have any idea how I can open permissions to the system clock so I can get back to work?
Thanks for any help you can offer...

Moving this discussion to the Using Flash Builder forum.
I believe the software though is working as designed. From previous discussions I have seen the Design view was removed in Flash Builder 4.7. The users in this forum may be able to provide additional information around this.

I had failed to mention in my previous comments that each time the attempted attacks took place, a blank Adobe PDF page appeared. As you suggested, I disabled the Adobe add-on and have had no further attacks. I am extremely dilligent in keeping my SuperAntiSpyware Pro, AvastAntiVirus 5.0, ThreatFire, Vista Firewall Control, Malewarebytes and Windows Defender up to date. However, after any attack I always run these in safe mode just as a precaution. I had suspected the Adobe drop-in may have been the culprit because of the page that appeared and your suggested fix has in fact fixed it!
Thank you again for your unselfish time in coming to my rescue. "Deaf Dave"

Hello Deaf Dave.
It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
Also, it's possible that your system is infected with malware. To scan for malware, install, update and run these programs ''in this order''. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in their "free mode", but the features you'll miss are not really needed to find and remove the problem you have. Remember that ''not all programs detect the same malware''!

Integrating SAP HCM with third party Access Control System

Hi Experts,
We have client using SAP HCM and intend procuring an Access Control Solution to manage her people.
What the client wants to avoid though is having to create a new employee in SAP HCM and manually creating same in the Access Control Software. Is there a way this can be automated such that upon recruitment of new staff, the data is updated in the Access Control DB which uses MS SQL? If this is possible, what is required to get this working well.
Thanks for your support in this regard.
Regards
John

For time management with the help of transaction pt80 you can download the information about employees with the help of idoc. And there are some programs a.k.a connectors that link access control systems and SAP so that you do not hire the same employee in the access control problem. You hire the employee in SAP and SAP sends the information (HR Minimaster DATA) to the related program.
It is also do the same thing for the employees who resign. I mean if an employee is fired or resigned from the company than it is sent to the related system.
These can be found under PDC integrated systems. You can find information about the systems from Ecohub. http://ecohub.sap.com/
I hope this answer will help.

I no longer have access to system folders that allow me to remove old or incorrect PAGES templates. Need to find out how to do that. The only way I can do it now is to blank the template and replace the bad template with a blank.

I no longer have access to system folders that allow me to remove old or incorrect PAGES templates. Need to find out how to do that. The only way I can do it now is to blank the template and replace the unwanted template with a blank. It was previously possible to go to MY TEMPLATES and remove the unwanted templates. I don't if this issue is before or since installation of 10.8 (a nightmare in my case, which led to significant failure issues). And because I haven't tried to remove templates since finally managing to install 10.8 (now at 10.8.4), I don't know if this is typical of the newer OS or a problem. I've been a Mac user for more than 25 years, but I think I'm nearing the end of the road. By the way, I've never needed to do this before because the manuals always offered an answer... they don't seem to do that anymore. In any case, I don't know how this works... I'd prefer an email reply if that's possible. But that would probably be too easy, and I don't know how to get a reply.

Thanks, I appreciate the help. I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.

No access to system landscape at present

Hi
I am trying to establish connectivity between ECC and PI. I am in SXMB_ADM of ECC and under Global Configuration Data, I put the role of business system as Application System. Now when I click on the Systel Landscape, I am getting an error " No access to system landscape at present". How should I solve this?
What do I enter next to corresponding Integ server ?

Hi,
Check in SLDCHECK, from R/3 side, if everyhting is ok.
You may want to check:
#1143810 - Troubleshooting SLDCHECK - Releases 71X
Second point, check note below to about the components in SLD, if they are correctly registered.
#1334053 - No automatic PI 7.10 SLD Registration
And take into account the following notes mentioned in the note above:
#1117249 - Incomplete Registration of PI components in SLD

Integrating with external access control system

Hi,
I am new at the network but have read a lot recently about the above subject as much as I could. However, I am a bit mixed up at something. I understand in order to update SAP HR module with employees time and attendance logs I need to interface with a certified PDC interface => (SAP ECC - PLANT DATA COLLECTION - TIME & ATTENDANCE AND EMPLOYEE EXPENDITURES (HR-PDC)
I wish to develop a system that updates the the SAP HR with employee attendance logs. In addition I also wish enroll new employees into my access control system database by polling the SAP HR database.
Now my question is if I use .NET connector:
1. Does the connector it include functions that can help with the above requirements?
2. Is the use of PDC interface here still a must?
Thanks

Scammer given access to system, now what?

My friend has OS X Mavericks installed and he was prompted to call a technical support number, because his computer had been infected. Thinking Macs don't get viruses, he was sure this message was from Apple. He called, followed the person's directions and gave him access to his computer which led to access to his network and they also did something to a PC connected to the network. (The prompt would not go away - it installs in the Safari folder and has to be thrown away - but this is the first I've heard of someone calling these folks)
What steps should I take to remove whatever they did? He is ok with a fresh install, but I still need to get his personal files off of the Mac. Not sure if spam files, viruses, or something of that sort will follow the files.
Side note: I had a good run with the Mac platform (almost 12 years now) without a virus/spam issue, but just this year my family/friends/coworkers have been hit with a ton of these things.

These scam pages are all over the place. I've never seen one myself, so I suppose it depends on what kind of web sites a person frequents.
When you see any of these sites that lock Safari to that page, you are being 100% lied to. You don't have an infection of any kind. They hope you'll call the number, install the remote access software they tell you to get, then they randomly go through your drive and point out normal files as "proof" you're infected with various imaginary stuff. All for the low, low price of anywhere from $200 to $900 to fix nothing.
The bad news is now the his Mac and PC may be compromised by letting them in. There's no way of knowing what other software they had you install. There could now be a keylogger on your system, which they can use to pick up your bank ID, password and PIN, along with whatever else they may want to monitor you for.
At this point, you have to consider your Mac compromised.
You really have no choice but to backup your important data and erase the drive. Reinstall OS X and your third party apps, then manually restore your personal data. DO NOT restore a backup. Particularly from Time Machine as it may have already backed up what they had you install, and you would simply succeed in getting it back on the drive.
Since they also did who-knows-what to the PC, you'll have to erase and rebuild that one from scratch, too.
Then, with a cleanly reinstalled drive, change all of your online passwords immediately. Starting with your bank and credit card accounts.

Problem with Manufacturer Information set type COM_TA_MANUFAC on UI

Hello everyone!
The system is CRM 7.0 standalone. One of the requirements is to track manufacturer information in products data. SAP has predefined set type for this called COM_TA_MANUFAC. I can see it in GUI in product workbench under the SAP Basic Data page but it is not available in Web UI. Is it possible to make that information available in Web UI?
Thanks in advance,
Alex.

Hi Gopal,
I was under the impression it was mandatory, but I took a second look at the documentation and you are correct, it does not need to reside in the same folder.
Documentation:

UWL - conditional accessing of systems

Hello All,
I have configured the UWL system to retrieve data from 2 MDM repositories. Every portal user is not going to have access to both the MDM repositories. How can I stop UWL from retrieving data from both the repositories?
Currently the UWL is retrieving the data from the MDM system for which there is a User Mapping. But for the other UWL is displaying an error message. I need a way to restrict this behaviour (because the error message makes the end user confused).
Thanks in advance,
PKS.

Hi,
when you create a UWL system you have got the possibility to restrict access to this system. Have a look at the parameter "User Roles". There you can determine for which set of users the UWL should access this system.
For example, you can assign a portal role here, such as buyer. Only users with the role buyer will see items from the provider system in UWL. You can have multiple user roles separated by semi-colon.
Find detailed information in the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/92/a88931f2dd4631b9e8d530697d89c9/frameset.htm">SAP Library</a>.

Stopping staff from accessing software

Hi there
Hoping someone can help me me out please.
I have been asked by my manager to somehow be able to stop staff from accessing software on our systems (copying) but still be able to use the software (I guess read only).
I also need to try and stop access to certain websites on Safari.
I tried to set up an admin account and guest account, tried to apply some settings and then BIG trouble, directed me into Darwin and a complete re-install had to be done. Well I'm only basic on the Mac's.
We have OS X versions 10.2 and 10.3, so I think some of the settings may differ. I'm hoping a step by step guide/talk through could help me out. I've looked on line, its seems to look a bit tricky.
Thanks in advance, happy to provide more details if required.

Hi Christopher
Anything that can be read can be copied. Read Only means it cannot be altered, ie, written to.
Your problem is the same as that of any company concerned with piracy, the illegal copying of proprietary software, whether media content, applications or documents.
There is no single or definite solution. Perhaps you could decrease the ease of copying by disabling the CD drive, or placing some restrictions or monitoring on network access. Or perhaps just reinforce company policy to remind your employees that illegal copying is wrong.
No easy answers I am sorry to say.
Blocking access to certain websites is much more achievable. Have a look at the Safari Plug In, *Pith Helmet* - you can google for it - if you use Safari. That can give a fair degree of control over which sites are accessible. I am not sure if there is aversion for 10.2 but hey, switch to 10.3 anyway as it is superior in many respects to 10.2.

Accessing the system tray, Windows 7

I have Windows 7. I have a program running named SlinCleaner Plus. I have tried to uninstall and have not been able to do so. It seems the program is running continuously in the background. I apparently have to go the system tray
to start the removal process. However, I can not access the system tray. Question ... What should I do?
