MeetingPlace Express Default Password

All,
We have just installed MeetingPlace Express 2.1. It looks as though everything is running correctly, however I can't log into the web interface. I found this PAGE and it claims that the default username is admin and the password is cisco. I tried that and it didn't work. I also know that while installing MPE it had me set a password for the web user admin, which I did, but that password is not working either.
Am I missing something on the configuration? Or is there another username that I can use?
Thanks for any assistance.

Hi -
May be too late for this response - but here are the instructions from the MPE DocWiki site:
Log in to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express operating system as the mpxadmin user.
At the password prompt, enter the mpxadmin password.The system displays the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express operating system desktop.
Right-click on the desktop.
From the menu, select New Terminal. This brings up a terminal session.
At the prompt, enter userutil -p admin <'newpassword'>, where newpassword is the new password. This tells the server to set a new password for the End-User Interface and Administration Center user called admin.
On the desktop, click the Red Hat icon.
Click Log Out.
Click OK.
Hope this helps! Ginger

MeetingPlace Express emailing password

Hi
We are currently using version 2.1.1.2 MeetingPlace Express and have noticed that when the meeting notification email is sent out it doesn't give the meeting password, instead it just says Required.
The email template has :
<td colspan="1"><b>$notify_passwd</b></td>
<td colspan="3">$notify_password</td>
These are defined in the language file as:
notify_passwd=Password:
notify_password=$cisco_Password
Also in the language file is:
## MISC
no_password=Not required
yes_password=Required
This is the actual text that is being sent instead of the password.
Is there a way to have the email display the meeting password?
Thanks

Thanks a lot,Natasa,
It worked, but I am unable to rate this port

Vinay

Meetingplace express password recovery

Hi
Does anybody know what the procedure is to recover the mpxadmin password on MeetingPlace Express?

Hi Nizar,
The passwords you are trying to reset is for the Application user, typically used for the initial setup of UCCX. This is not to be confused with the CCX Appadmin user that would be used to login to the GUI. Since you mentioned that the user was deleted from CUCM, you would recreate or use an existing user that is an "End User" in CUCM. Once you have created this user call into TAC and we can get root access to set UCCX back to FRESH_INSTALL, then run through the initial configuration to point at the newly created or existing user in CUCM.
Thank you,
Joe

Meetingplace Express 2 Type of user default setting

I'm trying to configure meetingplace express so that the default Type of user will be attendee and not End User, this can't be done in the profile configuration. Has anyone any idea how to do this ?

Can MeetingPlace Express make conference calls with just meeting ID and meeting password?

Hi,
We have MeetingPlace Express version 2.1.1.2. It is working fine and everything but we need to change the way it works.
For audio only conference calls, we need the users to be able to initiate meetings without having to enter their profile ID and profile password.
For example when a caller dials the MPE number and presses 1 to start a meeting, he has to enter his PIN code to be authorized to start a meeting, we want to exclude this feature, so that any one who dials the number and wants to start a meeting, he will get a meeting ID and meeting password directly.
Is this possible in MPE 2 ? Appreciate your help please, thanks in advance.

I poked around a system I have nearby and can't find a setting that is an obvious choice for this one. I experience the same behavior at the 30 minute mark.
One alternate approach you may try is called a continuous meeting. The viability of this approach depends on how this is being used:
This likely will NOT work if you have lazy users who can't manage their time.
The reason is a continuous meeting always consumes the licenses for itself, even if there are not participants currently in it.
This may work if you have defined groups of users who repeatedly meet as a group in an ongoing manner.
A continuous meeting is a scheduled meeting that reserves ports and a meeting ID indefinitely, so that
participants may join the meeting at any time on any day. Nevertheless, a continuous meeting is in
session only when at least one participant is in the meeting.
I searched high-and-low for documentation on this and the only two items that I can turn up are these:
http://www.ciscosystems.org/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/meetingplace_express/1_1/english/administration/guide/bagmtgs.pdf (page five)
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Express,_Release_2.x_--_How_to_Configure_Scheduled_and_Reservationless_Meetings#Enabling_Users_to_Schedule_Continuous_Meetings
One downer though: I cannot get the Continuous option to appear on my MPE 2.1.1.2 hotfix 36 (last release) system. Either I'm missing an option myself or something is wrong in this version.

Disk space problem on MeetingPlace Express

I get the email below daily. I'm thinking it's ok to cat /dev/null the cma.log file?
I also think I might be able to do the same thing to stdout.old?
Anything else I should try other than the instructions?

This is an automated message from the MeetingPlace Express system with
hostname [meeting.afgrp.com] to inform you that disk space is low.
Details on where the problem is and how to resolve it are indicated below.
Low space in partition /. Percent used = [90].
The following files might cause trouble. However, inspect each one to make sure.
Look specifically for large files with old timestamps. Also, note that some of
the files indicated might have been previously mentioned. In this case, use the
prior instructions to handle these files rather than the instructions below.
If you are uncertain, contact Cisco TAC for confirmation/advice.
For the files below, use the following procedure to empty these files rather than
   delete them outright.
         1. For each file to be emptied do:
             cat /dev/null > <filename>
         2. After all files that you wish to empty have been emptied, do:
             su   // Enter 'root' password.
             mpx_sys restart

-rw-r-----   1 root     root     127007041 Dec 22 05:30 /var/spool/compaq/cma.log
In general, to free up disk space where it is uncertain exactly what files are in question,
   do the following:
1. In general, go to places like /root, /mpxadmin, /tmp and do "ls -la" to look
     for large files. If a file is large, old, and seems like some kind of log or
     error file, it could be a candidate for deletion.
2. Generally files of type log (*.log), stderr, stdout, or txt (*.txt) are the
     best candidates to look for. A good command to look for these types of
     files with size of 10,000,000 bytes or larger is:
       find / -name "<file type>" -exec ls -la {} ; | awk '{if( >=10000000) {print} }'
     For example, to look for all log files 10,000,000 bytes or larger on
       the entire system:
         find / -name "*.log" -exec ls -la {} ; | awk '{if($5 >= 10000000) {print} }'
3. If you have a specific problem partition that you are trying to reduce size
     for, do the following:
     1. Find out the directory name of the top of the partition from "df".
     2. "cd" to that location.
     3. Then do: du -x -b --max-depth=1
     4. Look for the directories that are really large.
     5. Then "cd" into the worst subdirectory (or subdirectories).
     6. Get a list of all large files from current directory location and lower:
           (This example assumes 10,000,000 bytes and a check for .log files.
               Note the starting location of '.' (current location) rather
               than '/' (entire disk) ).
           find . -name "*.log" -exec ls -la {} ; | awk '{if($5 >= 10000000) {print} }'
Complete output of the 'df' command:

Hi Josh,
It seems that the root partition of the MeetingPlace Express server is almost full. I have attached a document for your reference which can be used to minimize the disk space issues.
Once the steps mentioned in the attached document are completed, run the command "df" to check the disk space.
If you do not see much improvement in the root partition, then in that case some other files might need to be removed from the server to increase the root partition space.
If any of the partitions reach upto 90% or above, then the server might behave unexpectedly.
Feel free to revert if you have face any issues or have any queries.

Rishabh

MeetingPlace Express Assistance

Hi All,
We have MeetingPlace Express version 2.1.1.2.
We need to configure it to accept any user to make a non-scheduled conference directly, without requesting the user to enter his profile ID and profile password, and without the need to add the data of the users into the MeetingPlace.
We just need it to act as an audio conference bridge, so we need the user to dial the MeetingPlace number, then he can enter a certain password (one password for all our staff) to enable our employees to log into the MeetingPlace, and then get the Meeting ID and Meeting password and start the meeting.

Sherif,
You are going to want to export using all of the headers and leaving them intact in the import file. You will want to follow the steps below for a successful import as the system is really sensitive that the data is formatted a certain way.
Create a test user profile in MPE manually so that you can get the file format of the import file with the headers.
Export User Profiles.
Export this test user profile to a file and include the header information.
This will create a User_Profiles.txt file that you will save and then open up in Excel. (Follow these steps below to ensure that the file is formatted correctly)
1. Within Excel, click on the Open tool on the toolbar. Excel displays the Open dialog box. (To display this dialog box in Excel 2007/2010, click the Office button and then click on Open.)
2. Using the Files of Type drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, indicate that you want to open Text Files (*.prn; *.txt; *.csv).
3. Select the saved export file.
4. Click on Open. Excel starts the Text Import Wizard, displaying the Step 1 of 3 dialog box.
5. Make sure the Delimited choice is selected, then click on Next. Excel displays the Step 2 of 3 dialog box.
6. Select Comma as a delimiter, then click on Next. Excel displays the Step 3 of 3 dialog box.
7. Click on Finish. Your file is imported.
8. Once the file is opened up in Excel, import your users into this spreadsheet so that they conform to the necessary format and the required headers.Next, find the "isLocalUser" field and set the parameter value for al user profiles from "No' to 'Yes'. Then find the EncryptedProfilePWD and EncryptedUserPWD fields. Remove the 'Encrypted' portion of the field name in the header so that they now read ProfilePWD and UserPWD. Make sure the value for the ProfilePWD for these user profiles is a standard alpha password. (cisco) Then make sure the value for the UserPWD for these user profiles is a standard numeric password. (12345). You may just be able to leave them as they are from your import.
9. Save the file with the changes.
10. Go to the Application MPE Web Page and then Maintenance-->Import Data-->Import User Profiles.
11. Select 'Add Profiles To System', select file to import, and set Overwrite field to 'Yes". (You should also set the log information to file option.)
12. Hit 'Execute' to import the user profiles to the system.
13. Once this is completed successfully, then go check the User Profile configuration to ensure that all users are imported correctly into MPE.
If you run into any problems with this procedure, please open an SR with TAC so that we can assist further.
Thank You,
Gerry

Meetingplace Express PIN

CM already integrated to AD.
Meetingplace Express also configured for auth with AD.
When a user logs in, his profile is automatically created.
According to this link
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6533/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a0080579c97.html#wp1142444
Table 5-4, it says PIN used for authentication will be the PIN number stored in external directory, which is AD in my case. Where is PIN number stored in AD ?
Thanks
Sankar.

Hi Sankar -
Check out this link for the plugin to CallManager and Active Directory - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_installation_and_configuration_guide09186a008055cded.html#wp70923
I'm sure the schema attribute associated with the PIN is part of the User's record, just like the DTMFAliasId and such are for Unity attributes. Here are the ldif files used to update the schema:
Active Directory
1. C:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500\config\AD\at_schema.ldif? Adds the attributes for schema updates
2. C:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500\config\AD\oc_schema.ldif?Adds the object classes for schema updates
3. C:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500\config\ContainersAndSysProfiles.ldif?Creates the default containers and system profile
4. C:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500\config\SpecialUserProfiles.ldif?Creates the profiles for Cisco-specific special users
5. C:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500\config\SpecialUsers_AD.ldif?Creates the Cisco-specific special users
You can use ADSIEdit to view the cisco attributes for a user as well as inspect the ldif file, for example Unity attributes begin with ciscoescbu followed by the specific name. We are using CallManager's own DC directory for our MeetingPlace Express, otherwise I would have looked for the specific nomenclature for you and posted it here.

MeetingPlace Express-Prevent Scheduling

Is it possible in MeetingPlace Express to prevent a profiled user from schduling a meeting? I have 2 groups, System, and one called full meeting room. The first group Is my default group for users when they first create a profile. I want this group not to be able to schedule any voice, video, or web. I just want them to participate. The second group contains the ability to schedule web, video, and voice. I have taked out the video and web, but the system group users can still schedule a meeting with voice. I would like to prevent that.
Thanks.

MeetingPlace Express Integration questions

Hi,
On MeetingPlace express, we can configure different ways for call-control integration.
In CallManager integration without gatekeeper mode, what's useful of the field of E.164 address under meetingplace H323 configuration mnue? By default it is "000". In this case, we can dial the more than one numbers of those configured on "Usage Configuration" or "Dial Configuration" if we correctly configured the route-pattern on CallManager;
But if integrated to Gatekeeper, we can only define one address which is the E.164 address under "H.323 configuration", and MeetingPlace express is registered to Gatekeeper as an endpoint; In this case, looks like those numbers defined on "Dial Configuration" or "Usage Configuration" does not help us. In this case, if the requirement is integrating gatekeeper, and have more than one DIDs can be used for meetingPlace express, how can we do?
Thanks,
JJ

CallManager SRND mentioned that we can add commands manually on gatekeeper for other MeetingPlace express access numbers, which answered my questions.

Securing LDAP on Meetingplace Express

Hello,
I'm looking to harden the security of a MeetingPlace Express (V2.0.1.15).
SSL has been implemented successfully resulting in https browsing only.
The next step is to integrate with AD for user authentication over a secure link. The Bind requests currently are simple (i.e. clear text userid and password) which is not secure.
Can anyone advise on how this can be configured to use SSL/TLS for the LDAP queries. This is a standalone MPX in that I do not have a Cisco Call Manager to secure the queries.
Thanks.

You will need to install the AD Plugin for CallManager before this.
Complete these steps in order to integrate MeetingPlace Express with Active Directory (AD):
- Log in to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express.
- Choose Administration at the top of the page.
- On the left side of the page:
Choose System Configuration.
Choose Usage Configuration.
- Configure these fields:
Cisco CallManager version-Set this field to Cisco Unified CallManager Release 4.x.
LDAP URL-Set this field:
Make sure that this URL starts with ldap, not http. For example, ldap://server-ip-address:port/
Make sure that there are no spaces after the URL.
Directory username-Use the format of an LDAP distinguished name, for example:
Password-Use the password that was specified during the Cisco Unified CallManager installation.
Cisco base
User base
Directory type
- Click Save.

What is the default password on Pet Store 1.3 when rebuilt?

I am unable to log into either the administrator client or the receiver application after rebuilding the WebLogic Server Pet Store Application. Neither jps_admin/admin nor rsvr/rcvr works. I saw a post referencing security.xml, but that file does not appear to be in this package
The default passwords worked when I used just the Pet Store template and prebuilt application, but the admin client would wait forever trying to get data, even when the client was ran from the same box as the server.
I am running WebLogic Server/Express 7.0 with SP7 for RHEL on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Update 3 x86.
What should the default login names be? Or even better, if someone has seen the admin client unable to get data, how do you solve that?

On my painfully new 11.1.2 install, and per the install instructions, the username and password are as follows:
epm_admin
whatever you set up -- (As I only ever use one of three different ones when I do installs, it wasn't too hard to go through all of the possibilities)
See: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_install/frameset.htm?webLogicDomainName.html

Does iTunes have a default password for initial encrypted backups?

I have an iPhone that was connected to iTunes for the first time today. It is a company device and IT has set a policy to require backups to be encrypted.
When I first plugged the phone in, iTunes automatically did a backup as it had never seen the device before. Due to a software issue, Apple recommended that I do a restore to factory settings and then restore from backup, so once the initial backup was completed, I performed the restore to factory just fine. However, when I attempted to restore from backup, I was prompted for a password even though I was never prompted for a password when iTunes created the backup. I have tried every password I can think of including my company domain password, iTunes password, iPhone passcode, etc...etc...to no avail.
Does anyone know if there is some default password that iTunes using when doing an initial backup without prompting the user for a password?

Unity Connection - Users with system default password getting locked out

Hi all, hope everyone is well !!
I am experiencing a strange problem and hope someone can give me some direction on where to start digging on this issue.
I am getting a good number of users reporting they are getting locked out of their voice mail and they all claim that they have not changed their password and some user even got their greeting recorded by someone else. One thing in common for the users who reported the issue is that they all using the system default password. I am trying to trace to find out who/what has access to these users' mailbox but so far I have not had any luck.
Thanks in advance !!
Danny

Thanks, yes am doing that now and cant really find any new/unique pattern. Plus the trace is pretty hard to follow. Cant really figure out any times stamps in the trace also. The current trace file is defaultTrace.18.trc and it has very simiiar content as some of the older ones before the problem. Right now the ESS portal is working and the slddsuser password is not locked. It seems the problem takes place on start up?
/usr/sap/ESS/JC77/j2ee/cluster/server0/log
Tough thing to test in production.
I wonder what takes place at startup that would kick this problem off?
