Newby question: Server user

Guys, i'm just starting installing the webserver on an HP-UX 11i. My question: which user should I set as the "Server user" when creating a new server? The help ercommends to use a "nobody" user, or the adm.
It is safe to assign the adm user or should I create a "nobosy" user and to assign it as server user for the sw server?
REgards,
Vladimir

Actually, it's probably best to create a separate user just for Web Server. It should have permissions to read the content Web Server is supposed to serve and nothing else.

Windows 7 Desktop synchronisation - Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop

Hi there
My client has a laptop which won’t load the desktop when disconnected from the network. When you log on (while disconnected) you get the error
“Windows cannot access \\server\users\name\desktop”
Works as expected while connected to the network.
The server is a Windows Small Business Server 2003 with active directory etc. and roaming profiles turned on. This issue does not occur on other workstations/laptops.
When I check the Users folder on the local system drive there is not a desktop folder. I assume this is the issue although I’m not sure how you would force windows to create one or why one hasn’t been created?
This is a brand new laptop so my initial reaction was to reset the laptop to factory state and then add the laptop back in to the domain. After this process the issue was still present!
I guess the only thing I should mention is that this was shipped as a Home Premium laptop and was then upgraded to Professional using an upgrade key.
I have checked Control Panel, System & Security, System, Advanced, User Profiles and the account shows as Local with Roaming Profiles greyed out.
Any ideas?

Server user names/accounts verus local machine user accounts

Sorry, I seem to be having some fog on this in setting up a new server. Existing Mac computers, so local computers have users/passwords already setup. In creating users on the new server, I still want want users to access their local directories/files on their local machines - but we want access to server services too.
Question: use the same user name/passwords as local machine in setting up server users - or something different?
Thanks very much - Lewis

This is a difficult question to answer given the information available.
In general though, I would refrain from setting up both a local and a network account with the same username. It causes confusion since you never know which account you're really using, you will have problem matching UIDs (which is what's really used to track file ownership) and you will have problems when users change passwords (assuming they ever do) because they'll change it locally but it won't have any effect on the server-side services.
So I would probably look to move ALL the accounts to the network directory. You can still use local home directories in this scenario, but it will take some time to migrate all users, ensuring they maintain access to their files after their UID changes.
The above does depend on what services you're running, though, so it might not be worth the hassle, depending on those services, number of users, etc.

Questions about user-defined functions

Hello all,
I've got some questions about user-defined function in a message mapping:
1) How can I get the current date/time in format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss ? What is the java code for this?
2) I want to use the StreamTransformation constant TIME_SENT, only this is not in the right time-zone.
It is GMT and it should be CET (1 hour difference). How can I convert this in Java?
Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Marco van Iersel

Hi Marco,
If the date format is fixed as you have mentioned,please use this:
                                String test = "2009-03-27 23:15:30";
          String test1 = test.substring(11,13);
          if(!test1.equals("23"))
          int a = Integer.parseInt(test1);
          int b = a+1;
          System.out.println("b"+b);
          String c = Integer.toString(b);
                                test = test.substring(0,10)+" " + c + test.substring(13,19);
                                return test;
          if(test1.equals("23"))
          test = test.substring(0,10)+ " 00" + test.substring(13,19);
          return test;
                                else return "";
Kindly let me know if this works.
Thanks.
Regards.

The problem is that the SharePoint server will

to log on they get an error message indicating that not enough resources areavailable to
log them on and also user will to credential prompt while accessing share point site .

Hi,
According to the error message, please use performance monitor to diagnose if it is a memory-related bottleneck and you can use the counters of the memory part in the article below:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2008.08.pulse.aspx
In addition, it may be due to thousands of open connections to the server are in a TIME_WAIT state. You can run "netstat -an" command on the affected server and client. If you see mutiple connections in the TIME_WAIT state, you can follow the article
to increase the number of TCP/IP connections:

Furthermore, if you are running windows server 2003, please make sure that you have installed the KB 948496 and stop all services that you don't need.

A question about users assigned roles extraction

Dear all,
I have a question about users assigned roles list extraction. I need the list of the users who have already been created along with their assigned roles. According to what I found on Google, there is a table named AGR_USERS which provides the roles assigned to each user. Yet, this table provides only the SAP ID of each user along with the assigned roles. What I need more is to have also the first name and second name of each user.
So, do you know any table providing at least the following information:
1) First name of each user
2) Second name of each user
3) SAP ID of each user
4) All assigned roles to each user.
NOTE: I really need to have first name and second name in separate columns
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Thanks to you and others for your attention to my problem
I don't know anything about ABAP programming, is there any transaction allowing to create this join? As it seems to me the column "UNAME" in the table "AGR_USERS" and the column "BNAME" in the table "USER_ADDR", both refer to the SAP ID of the user. As a result the condition of the join would be "WHERE (UNAME = BNAME)", is there any transaction/programme allowing to create this join?
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Project 2010 Server - Users loosing permissions to Projects

Hi all.
I am having an issue where some of our users are loosing permissions to certain projects. It is not always the same ones. It is even ones that they own.
I have done some searching through the forums but cannot seem to find the same issue.
Has anyone come across this or know what could be causing it?
We are running Project 2010 server on SharePoint 2010 platform.
Thanks for reading.

User are losing permission in project site or project ?? If it is project site then
May be users to whom access has been given manually and after every publish and change resource permission they were loose the permission to project site.
Choose only one approach described below then you will not face the issue
1.either Check to automatically synchronize Project Web App users" in PWA --> Server setting so that all the resource who are present in Project build team get the access.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197668(v=office.14).aspx
When you have this enabled, it doesn't sync all of the Project Web App users from the top level site, it only syncs users to the project site that should have access based on the following rules:
Project managers who have published a project or who have Save Project
permissions on a project are added to the Project Managers (Microsoft Project
Server) site group.
Team members with assignments in a project are added to the Team members
(Microsoft Project Server) site group.
Other Project Server users who have View Project Site permission on a
project are added to the Readers (Microsoft Project Server) site group.
2. or If you disable Check to automatically synchronize Project Web App users" then either Administrator need to give access to project site to required resources. this one is manual work and hectic to administrator to mention the up to date permission

Running admin server user as non-root

Hi All,
I have a requirement to run admin server user as non-root. Is this possible and how to go about it.
giovi

Web Server traditionally runs with a process parentage something like:
Admin Server -> WatchDog -> Primordial Process -> Worker Process
The Worker Process runs with the UID specified in the configuration (nobody, webservd, etc). This is the process that is actually doing the work of being a web server.
The Primordial Process typically runs with the UID specified in teh configuration. The primordial process never handles requests. Its role is to quickly create replacement worker processes if the worker process unexpectedly terminates.
The WatchDog process typically runs with privileged (read "root") access in order to be able to bind to the privileged ports of the OS (any port below 1024). Without privileged access no bind can occur. Once the Watchdog performs the bind it creates the Primordial process, delegates ownership of the port, etc. From then on its role is to watch for unexpected termination of the Primordial process and, if needed, create a new one.
The Admin server is an optional part of the configuration. When used, it also needs to have the necessary rights to bind to the privileged ports.
So then - the only way to allow the Admin Server or the Watchdog run non-privileged and still be able to perform their jobs is to loosen the restrictions on the privileged ports themselves. On Solaris 10 you could do this with:
# usermod -K defaultpriv=basic,net_privaddr webservd
Then become webservd and start the process.
Note that the Admin Server's UID is set in admin-serv/config/server.xml (there may be a screen for this in the GUI). Look for the <user>root</user> element.

MDM server user

Hello experts.
The developer requested me to take a look at the error.
MDM Adapter listener could not start due to: Can not create repository session '<server=turin serverUser=Admin repository=My_Catalog_Master user=pleaseMaintain>' caused by: The specified MDM repository was not found on the server
While i was investigating, i haven't found where the guy have specified that the serverUser was Admin. 'Cause, in fact, the server user had a passowrd that should be set somewhere (we removed the password, but devs want a password).
The error itself is not important, i just got curious about the server user.
anyone got a clue? the Communication channel have the user (the mdm repository user) but this Admin user
thanks
Thiago Delou

Hi,
By default, MDM Server takes System account i.e. windows user currently logged in. You can check this in Windows Services, while in Unix it asks for username at the time of server installation and by default it creates user=mdm. First try omitting serveruser parameter else try passing the login credentials of windows user. If you are at Unix then user=mdm should work for you.

SQL SERVER USERS

Hello Experts
How can we list all sql server users(active or inactive) with the respective rights in a server? i was told to list all users and their rights on a hard copy, thank you as ususa!

-- selects out logins in instance
select name,
dbname
from sys.syslogins
-- selects out users and groups that has access to specific database
-- ...must be run per database in instance
select status,
name,
hasdbaccess,
* from
sys.sysusers
where status
in (4,12)
-- 4 = group, 12 = login
and hasdbaccess
= 1
I am sure that there must be a more handsome way of doing it.... :-)

Yosemite Server Users question.

I recently installed Yosemite Server 4.0.3 on a fully patched Yosemite 10.10.2 install on a Mac Mini (Late 2014/2.6GHz i5/16GB/1TB) that we're going to hang a LaCie Thunderbolt RAID off of for a file server update, and while setting users, and permissions (had some problems with a user unable to write to a share), the Server application crashed. After bringing the Server application back up and after various tests, the users interface on the server application lists every user on the system, including the unix/posix users such as amavisd, postfix, etc.
My initial guess is that a switch regarding which users are displayed got toggled in the application crash. But at the same time, I can't see where that setting would be and would hate to have to guess what switch to throw in a command line launch to correct the problem.
So my effective question is this, has anyone seen a problem quite like this and if so why did it occur and how was it addressed?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts you may have.
Ed.

I knew it had to be something so simple that I'd overlook it. Thank you! I'd not seen that happen in earlier versions (10.6 and previous), so it caught me a bit off guard. Thank you again.
