Use the migration wizard and set it to merge, the deltas should be added ok and anything that exists in both systems should get a number added at the end.

How to stop users not in any group and users from other groups accessing sites they have no permission to access on top link bar?

Hello Community
    Using SharePoint 2010 Server and UI, a web application
was created with subsites.
    The subsites have unique permissions and Owner, Member
and Visitor groups.
    The problem is however even if a user does not exist
in a group that user can access the top link bar/navigation
bar and its sub sites.
    Also any user in any group can access any top link bar/navigation bar and its subsites.
    How do you enforce that if a user is not in a group
they are denied access the top link bar/navigation bar and its
subsites?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

If you are using the built in SharePoint navigation links, SharePoint will automatically hide links to sites that a given user doesn't have access to.
The problem is, it sounds to me like you have a fixed top link bar that lists the content and if a user doesn't have access, the link still shows up.
You may want to look at how the top link bar was encapsulated in the design of the page. If it isn't wrapped in the permissions provider code, that could be the problem.
I trust that answers your question...
Thanks

Is there a way to create an automated job to add andupdate groups and users for Connect?

Is it possible and does anyone have experience with being able to create an automated load of new groups and users in Adobe Connect. We have an On-premise deploymentwill be setting up the application to be open outside our company to train channel partners. We have a separate database of channel partner contacts, email addresses, passwords, and training groups that they should be in based on their partner company or product knowledge. We would like to be able to create a front end database that would create a group based on the partner company or based on product knowledge. Then we would like to add users to these groups. Any knowledge of whether this is possible and if anyone has done it?

There are also size limitations or rather suggestions for particle size. If I were creating an animated 3D shape using Form or C4D and wanted to use it as a particle I would keep the size of the particle about 1/6 to 1/8 of the comp size. You would create a new comp for your particle, animate it, then nest the particle comp in your main comp, turn off visibility, and then use it as a particle in Particular.

Powershell script for security groups and users for multiple share folders

Hi scripting team,
I need your help with powershell script for the below queries
1. List out the security groups for more than one server share path and output it to a file ( csv )
For eg.
If the are are two share paths
\\servername\foldermain\folder1
\\servername\foldermain\folder2
So I needs the list of security groups for each share path
And the output needs to be under each any every path.
2. Grab the users belongs to main security groups and it nested groups for more than one security group and listed the users under each and every group. No need to display nested groups. Just users belongs to main group and users under nested.
Your teams help is much appreciated
Thank you.

Migrate a Single User from GW7 to Exchange 2003

Does anyone have experience migrating a single user from GroupWise 7 to Exchange 2003? We have a business unit that we acquired several years ago and no decision has been made to this point about merging the two e-mail systems (we are GroupWise 7 and they are Exchange 2003). I have just been asked about moving one of our employees to their business unit and want to know my options.
My gut says that we should keep him on GroupWise because that is what he knows and loves, then we can use this as a first crack in getting GroupWise over there.
I have found a few Microsoft articles that reference setting up the API gateway and migrating data through there, but everything mentioned is either GroupWise 5.5 or 6.x. Also, based on our past experiences with the API gateway we would like to avoid that if possible.
We have an implementation of the Novell GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange, but that presumably does not help us in this situation.
Are there any utilities out there? Anything that could take a GroupWise Native Archive and convert it to the Outlook equivalent? Even if it was like an archive that he had to manually open from time to time, I'm betting that would be good enough.

Yes, I have lots of experience. The Microsoft articles that you refer to basically involve setting up co-Existence between GW and Exchange. They all refer to GW 6.5, but it works with GW7. It is just not "officially" supported by Microsoft. The other thing to be aware is that the Microsoft Connector for GroupWise comes with Exchange 2003 and links in with the Novell API Gateway 4.1. The Newer Novell Gateway for Exchange sort of replaces this Microsoft tool, but you are not going to find it much better as a gateway. Too many issues and not nearly enough documentation on the web.
Also, you can use the migration wizard from the Exchange 2003 installation to migrate a user from GW to Exchange (with or without co-existence set up) . It works fine to migrate all of the users mail, appointments, etc. Does not destroy the GW mailbox, so you can do a dry run to see how it works. Does not migrate their personal address books though.
The Wizard can create the user for you in Exchagne 2003, but it can only create an Exchange 2003 Legacy account. If you are running Exch2007, set up the user first, then migrate.
Hope that helps.

Can i recover my all active directory domain computers and users from IFM and in-cooperate them in new forest ??

So what i have done till now to recover it is a follow
I reintalled window server but this time it is winserver 2012. I added AD DS role to it. Promoted it to Domain Controller. (functionality level is 2008 R2)
On second server i installed win 2008 R2 and trying to add additional domain controller from IFM to recover all of my domain users,computers and GPO's. but i am getting this error
Could not replicate the directory partition CN=schema, CN= configuration, DC=XXX, DC=com from the remote domain
the naming context specified for this replication operation is invalid
i dont know weather my approach is correct or not
but my simple questions is
Can i recover my all domain computers and users from IFM and in-cooperate them in new forest ?? if yes how can i do that?? urgent help required.

Pt:tree of community groups and users

I am creating a community emailer portlet for emailing the users of a community. I want to use a pt:tree that lists the groups and users who have membership in the community. I want the individual users, groups and users in groups to be checkable. I've been playing with the pt:tree for a while now without success. Can anyone help? This seems like it would be a common question, but I can not find any answeredthreads on this. Thank you!

Hi,
We are having problems seeing users or groups in our LDAP repository, thruWLS(7.0
sp2) console. I created a Custom Security Realm(myRealm) in which I addedthe
Novell LDAP Authentication provider as one of the authentication providersbesides
a Default Weblogic Authentication Provider (for system user account). WhenI click
on Users or Groups, I see either the "system" user account or"Administrators,
Deployers, Operators, Monitors" groups.These groups and user accounts areprovided
by the Weblogic Default Authentication provider. I am unable to see any ofour
LDAP groups or User accounts. If I try to login to the WLS console with anLDAP
user account, the authentication goes successfully. So WLS isauthenticating the
user correctly but is not displaying the User and Group information in theconsole.
We need to be able to look at the Group information in order to configurea Group
Portal.
Just out of curiosity, I configured an LDAP authentication provider in theCompatibility
Security Realm and I was not able to see any of our LDAP users or groupsin the
Compatibility Secyrity Realm also. I did reboot the WLS after configuringthe
LDAP authentication provider in both the cases.
I would appreciate if anybody can suggest probable reasons or workaroundsto list
the LDAP groups in the WLS 7.0 console.
I believe this is fixed in the latest 7.0 sp.

How do I migrate sites and settings from CS6 to CC?

How do I migrate sites and settings from CS6 to CC?
Now goddam way I am going to rebuild 13 websites just to use CC

Well. With Dreamweaver CC, you could use the Sync settings feature to transfer workspaces from one CC machine to the other.
But with CS6 workspaces being transferred to CC there is a not so intuitive way to do it.
Backup/Rename the CC workspace folder [resent at C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\workspace to anything you like.
Copy the workspace folder from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\workspace to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\workspace
Now you should have your CS6 workspaces in CC.

SSRS - Intellisense for Security (Groups and Users) and email subscriptions

When I add a new user to a SQL Server (In SSMS), I can add an AD Group or user, and SQL server will verify their login name. It will reject if wrong and let me search Active Directory and verify names. In MS Outlook I can start typing an email
address and intellisense will help me complete it.
Is there Intellisense on the Report Server, so when I make a role assignment (giving permissions like Browser to a user) it checks their login or even completes it for me.
Is there Intellisense when I add email address to a subscription?
Was wondering if this is a setting I can turn on, or if it is just not available.
Any workarounds? How do I know I am entering a user correctly, what if I misspell?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Computermike,
According to your description, you want to check the if the e-mail address is valid when creating e-mail subscription. Right?
In Reporting Services, The report server does not validate e-mail addresses or obtain e-mail addresses from an e-mail server. You must know in advance which e-mail addresses you want to use. This is a feature by design. However, if you send a subscription
to an invalid e-mail address, the sender (your service account) will receive an e-mail which tells you the destination e-mail address is invalid.
If you really need to check the validation of the e-mail address before sending the subscription, we suggest you provide Microsoft a feature request at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer
so that we may try to expand the product features based on your needs.
Best Regards,
Simon Hou

Synchronize MSAD and essbase groups and users automatic

I know it is not possible to import to Essbase users and groups directly from MSAD or LDAP. All users are deffined with external authentication. There is a way to create an application which make this synchronization possible ? May I have some samples? Thanks. 

If you are using LCM and groups are native and users are external provisioned against the groups then you will need to export the groups, if you want the provisioning against applications then you will also need to take that across.
Cheers

Migration Assistant and User Names

I'm about to take delivery of a new Mac Pro to replace the G5. I intend to just migrate my user data and install all apps from scratch so they're all Intel where possible. However, from memory, when you get a new machine and switch it on for the first time, you have to set up a user before you're asked if you want to transfer data. If I use the user name I'm used to from the previous machine, it won't migrate a user with that same name. I know I can set up a dummy user, migrate my data then delete the dummy but is there another way?

I need help, and I'm definitely panicking. I need clear concise answers to things. I'm willing to try things on my own, but I don't want to keep getting deeper and deeper and it be spring, and I still haven't fully loaded my brand new i5 imac, and not be dong fun stuff. Between the flicker, migration assistant woes, and duplicate email issues, I'm 75% to being at 'wit's end' and taking the whole **** thing back.
I did not migrate when first using set-up asst, and registered same user name on new i5 as I have on macbook (or close enough, I thought caps were diffferent in one place, but apparently not). So... later, when I went to migrate, it asked for different user name. I 1) picked a slightly diff name, and 2) migrated every thing (apps, network, etc). approx 35 gigs & 90 minutes. I go to look, nothing's there, obviously, and I have exactly my old macbook on a new user name. I don't want this.
a) how do I get everything I need/want from old macbook (iphoto/movies, docs, etc) to my ORIGINAL user acct on new i5?
a2) WHAT, exactly, of the 4 clickable buttons (user, apps, network, ?,) when I'm migrating, do I need to actually move?
b) a friend said I can move these files/whatever to a shared folder from the addl user account to the original, then delete old one (or keep it as back up). Is this true?
b2) I moved one pic this way, and it works I had to ("authenticate"), but let's say I move the "picture" folder (which includes 4,000 pics) this way, will there be any problems? in other words, will the iphoto or pictures folder that migrated to the user name I did not want, 'merge,' or 'replace' (or something else?) the handful of iPhotos and files I already have on my original/proper user name? are there any issues w/ doing this? keep in mind, when the old iPhoto6 migrated from macbook to username I had to create on new 'puter, it was upgraded, after promp, to iPhoto9, which is fine; just want to make sure that will be fine, moving this way (as well as iMovie, everything else.). And I guess, I need to keep 'authenticating.'
c) also, one of the 4 buttons when migrating is "user accounts." that's different than the 'user' folder? Please tell me which 4 buttons I need to have clicked when I migrate from a 4-yr old macbook w/ ilife06, to a brand new quadcore i5. and again, please explain what 'applications' are again. I used to know, but my head is so wrapped around all this BS now....
d) can I just migrate again, but the proper stuff, TO my orginal user account on the new i5, or no?
e) If I eventually get all my stuff - whichever way - to the one and original user, can I simply delete the other user from this 'puter?
Thanks for the help. Mac sellers REALLY should tell customers this, about doing it upon setting up. Or apple should simply rewrite the program to include just being able to do what you do at set up, anytime.

Manually migrating iPhoto and iTunes from Snow Leopard to Lion..

Hi all,
I received a shiny new iMac yesterday and in my haste to get it up and running, I began to run the migration assistant on wi-fi. Unfortunately, my 2006 macbook model is so old that my firewire cables don't actually fit the firewire port on the back of the iMac!!
11 hours later, there was still 40 hours left to go. At this point I manually quit the migration assistant. Partly because I have to work and to work I need to use a computer and partly because I realised that I don't want all the old crud from my previous system.. all I want is my iTunes (songs, apps, playlists etc) and my iPhoto to migrate.
The original admin account that the migration assistant was going to replace was still there. Everything seems to be working fine... I did a quick repair of disk permissions and all seems fine. So, I think I flirted with danger by quiting the migration assistant, but danger doesn't seem to have flirted back.
I've searched high and low on the web and I can't find any advice on migrating just your iPhoto and iTunes from Snow Leopard to Lion. I did read a post somewhere (relating to a migration to Leopard) where someone wrote that, for iPhoto, you simply had to replace your iPhoto Library in your pictures folder on the destination machine and then simply start iPhoto. iPhoto would upgrade the databases etc and all would be fine in the world. I cannot find a post online that suggests that this is also the case for Lion.
Can anyone here give me some hints on how to manually migrate the iPhoto and iTunes libraries over (and still preserve playlists in iTunes, albums/events in iPhoto etc)?
I figure that I cannot be the only person in the world who wants a "fresh start" on their machine, with the exception of iPhoto and iTunes.

Resident apple gurus at work have advised me to use the migration assistant and plug an ethernet cable between machines.
I'll give this a go and then go through the process of removing and cleaning up whatever old data I can.. but if someone posts a response to this question for me, I'll happily roll back in time-machine and go again in a cleaner way. :-)

Project Online - Can't Delete Resource and User from Delete Enterprise Objects

I would like to link a resource account to a user account but I ran into an error: "The resource account
is already in use.". This is a known issue which I attempted to resolve by following the instructions in KB2881398.
However when deleting the selected resource from Delete Enterprise Objects I get a message indicating success ("The
selected Resources and Users have been deleted.") but the duplicate user is still in the listing in Delete Enterprise Objects and when attempting to link the remaining resource to a user logon account I still get the error
"The resource account is already in use."
Why is the user not deleted even though Delete Enterprise Objects reports success and how can I delete these duplicates to be able to successfully link the account?

Hi,
This might be due to your Exchange Sync issue, where your project workspace is unable to delete that user from local DB. Try following steps to diagnose the problem:
1) Go to your Resource Pool, DELETE a resource.
2) While resource is being Deleted, open another window
Server Settings -> Manage Queue Jobs
3) Here you can view the progress of your current Resource Deletion update, check if all goes smooth and your Resource is deleted successfully by showing process completion 100% :
( to view any error look at the
last column of table on Manage Queue Job page)
4) Cross check your Resource by running Resource Availability Report.
Basically this will give you a fair idea of your resource deletion problems and how system is responding to it.
Regards
