Automation of user password reset

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a way to automate user password resets in Essbase? Does application manager do have this capability? If not is there another 3rd party vendor tool that will interface w/ App Man to do this?We are using Essbase 6.1 on an NT server.Thanks!

I don't really understand what you mean by "automated password resets" - you can use MaxL or ESSCMD to reset a user's password (alter user command in MaxL or the SETPASSWORD command in ESSCMD).Either of those tools can be used to automate a password reset - but it depends on when and how you want it run. Normally passwords are reset when the user forgets it - and your security would be wide open if a password coule be automatically reset on demand.Perhaps you could detail the problem you are trying to solve.Regards,Jade--------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

Portal user password reset!

I for some reason I reset the Portal (DB Schema) user password and i'm not able to get into the portal page!
please help..
here is the err i get ---
http://<host>:7778/pls/portal/
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /pls/portal/portal.home on this server.
Oracle HTTP Server/1.3.22 Server at <host name> Port 7778

Ankur,
Its very much possible to have an automatted job which will read a text file from a portal content path and reset the user password. You can implement KM Scheduler task using NWDS.
Let your KM Scheduler task have the logic to read a file. Use UME API to reset the password for the given user.
Deploy this KM Scheduler task into portal from NWDS using portal admin user name and password.
Navigate to portal and schedule the deployed task under System admin -> System config -> Knowledge management -> content Management -> Global services -> Scheduler tasks -> Schedulers -> You should be able to see your deployed scheduler here -> just select the link and set the time period -> by this way you can run a job at any time like everyday at 11A.M , every one hour, ever 10 minutes etc.
I remember thr is blog on SDN reg the scheduler. Please search in SDN.

Mass users password reset

Hi, can I know how to reset mass users password at once. etc reset 10 users password at a one time. thx

Hi Juan,
now, why would that be? whether you reset a single password using SU01 or batch-input record the same thing, you can always (system settings allowing) set a predefined passwort ... for an alredy existing user (and not necessarily a new one)!

Doamin user password reset procedure failed on Weblogic 11g

Hi,
I have lost my admin console password for weblogic11g server. I have followed the below steps to reset the password.

Hello All,
Our DBA has ran the script apxchpwd.sql as SYS and it went fine. But still we are unable to login into INTERNAL schema with ADMIN user. Any thoughts?
Only thing I need to check is APEX user.
alter session set current_schema = APEX_040000;But that is correct.
Where and how can I check the apex INTERNAL workspace user ADMIN status?

USER PASSWORD RESET OPTION

Hi,
We have published our server through ITS. Once users logged on they access through Webui. I would like to provide users the option for themselves to change their own password.Please suggest how to achieve this
Regards
D.Mukundan

Hi,
You can provide the custom screen for changing the password.
Standard FM's are available to change the password.
ME_USER_CHANGE_PASSWORD
But, I think you should go with the standard password change mechanism which is the normal login screen where user logs into web ui.

Upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1 new user password reset error

hello, we upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 last friday and have come across the following issue: New users being required to change their password for the first log in are receiving an error message:
(Error: Item "P50_USER_NAME" was not displayed because the HTML form was not yet opened.Error: Item "P50_ENTER_CURRENT_PASSWORD" was not displayed because the HTML form was not yet opened.Error: Item "P50_PASSWORD" was not displayed because the HTML form was not yet opened.Error: Item "P50_CONFIRM_PASSWORD" was not displayed because the HTML form was not yet opened.Error: Item "P50_SESSION" was not displayed because the HTML form was not yet opened. )
This is occuring with existing applications as well as with a newly created application (after the upgrade). Also, what's interesting is that if you log directly into apex (the screen with the workspace login, etc....it works fine and directs you to a different URL. Obviously our users wouldn't be accessing this url.) here's the 2 urls just so you can see the application/page differences (4155/50 verses 4350/68)
This is the URL that end-users are being directed to which shows the error:
/f?p=4155:50:3096404055109898::NO::P50_SESSION,FSP_AFTER_LOGIN_URL:2551476413459584,f?p=114
This is the URL that is working when logging into apex directly:
/f?p=4350:68:984059594353829
Looks like it has something to do with #form_open# and the template/theme? Any suggestions on how to fix?
Also, I uploaded an application to apex.oracle.com and it works fine there.
I've searched the documentation and the forum and didn't come up with anything.
Thanks for the help!! Melissa

Disable user password reset

I am building a lab image and I am trying to find a way to disable is user's ability to change the password. I have looked all over google and searched this forum. Please help!

Just don't give the lab user account administrator privileges. Without admin privileges (unless my memory is completely faulty; I'm not at my Mac to confirm right now) the user shouldn't be able to change the account password.
that's not correct. a standard user can change their account password. An admin user can lock this ability down using Workgroup manager as I said. i still see absolutely nothing wrong with having standard users able to change their password. and of course no sane lab administrator will let regular lab users have admin accounts.

Portal Password Reset problem

Hi All,
My scenario wants an automated process where the users can reset their own password. Do you know if the user password reset on the logon page is a automated process? Does the email with password go directly to the user or the email goes to the administrator and then the administrator has to reset the password? Do I need to configure the SMTP in my client system for this? If so can you give the steps involved for configuring SMTP?
I have configured SMTP server by logging as Administrator in portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Engine and gave the notification email as 'JavaMail'.
The again portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Email edit it gave the Host name as my SMTP mail server name. I checked my mail server through telner <mail server> 25 and it is opening in command prompt. Am I missing anything here in SMTP configuaration. Fileds like Pop3 User and Pop3 Password I wanted to leave as blank but when I click save in Portal , it self add some encrypted values.
can Anybody has done the above scenario.Its urgent.
I have read on help.sap.com and it looks like it sends an email to administrator and then the administrator resets the user password. Is my understanding correct on the above.
Can anyone provide me a step by step approach on the same.
Suitable answers will be rewarded definitely.
Regards,
Narayanan B

I found some information about this on SDN and on the help.sap.com site that might help:
First look at:
Change/Reset password option on the login page
and:

Encryption algrothim used for Password reset question and answer

We are trying to write a custom interface to the Password reset service.
The interface is supposed to allow the user to enter a question and answer, then using SAM SDK write the value to the iplanet-am-user-password-reset-question-answer.
The problem is SAM saves the values encrypted, so do any one know the encryption algorithm used and what is key or they are specified.

Only you and Apple know your secret question. See if changing the password via email will allow access to your account.. Then you can chnag yur secret question. See:

Involuntary/Malicious Password Reset

Two times now I have had my user password reset/changed without my knowing or permission. I log off my computer and when I come back my account password is no longer recognized. I'm 100% sure there is no live person altering the password from my physical machine. I'm also 100% sure I did NOT forget my password. Is this a bug? Or is it worse? Do I have some other security breach perhaps over my cable connection?
Please Help!
Bart
iMac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi Bart,
The OS does a good job logging. I would start by looking at your current system.log. Look for problems with authentication and lines that reference when the sudo command has run. Also look at the archived system logs compare the different logs. Look for remote logins in the wtmp log. Also check wtmp's archived logs. This is done with the last command in the Terminal.app, the archived logs will have to be unzipped to look at them. Check the secure.log. The secure.log records instances when GUI apps run at an elevated level, also logins. A good cracker knows how to cover his tracks. You may find nothing in the logs indicating your computer had an intruder.
If you feel your computer has been compromised then remove it from the internet connection. Back-up your user home folder. Clone your start up drive to a diskimage. If you can't then make a copy of the /bin, /etc, and /var directories. This can be used as evidence should you report the intrusion.
You need to re-install the OS. It might be a good idea to reformat the drive and zero the drive to flag bad blocks. Reconnect the computer to the internet and turn on the firewall. Use sofware update to update the OS to the highest level with all security updates. Reinstall any third party apps from installers not from any back up. Your user data should be re-introduced selectively and then only data files. Check that none of these files have the executable bit set. Use a virus scanner (Clamav) to check the files. And make sure you choose a good password.
