Online file storage with access control and file manager integrated to APEX website

I have APEX 4.2 website with few user accounts. I would like to share approximately 100 GB of documents to users. Some documents will be public (in some public folder) and everyone with account in my website will be able to download that public files. And some files/folders will be with restricted access and only user with appropriate credentials will be able to download it.
I would like to find some cheap cloud file storage.
Some storage that offers plugin/component = file manager that will be integrated to my APEX website and authentication will be transparent to my users (authentication with some API or URL). Every user will see only his files. I want some ready to use component and call only minimum API.
I would like to integrate that storage to my website or call some user specific URL and redirect my user to some page with file manager.
All files will be read only for all users.
Thanks for some tips

what will you be using for your file manager? Or do you even know yet?
I do not have tons of experience but if I had to come up with a solution I would build the interface with APEX and use the database to store the files inside so you can control access.
You can create a procedure that takes in parameters like username, session id, encrypted session id from the browser cookie and either return the file or give the user an error message letting them know they arent authorized. You could use plugins to give the users a better file managing experience like the 'multiple file upload' plugin that allows AJAX based multiple file uploading.
Id put this on an amazon EC2 cloud micro instance. It's uber cheap.

In JSF, how to make a menu with access control?

In JSF, how to make a menu with access control?
The access control can be guided by programming, database or other means if possible?
Thanks

I want to make a dvd menu in iMovie because i don't have IDVD and can't find anywhere to download it?
For making DVDs I would recommend iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 both readily available on Amazon or eBay. Shop for iLife 06 and iLife 09.
You can make menus and chapters with any version of iMovie except the latest one. There's nothing wrong with iMovie 11 either but I prefer iMovie 06.
By using iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 I make DVDs with professional moving menus with very little effort. They look almost as good as Hollywood.

Difference between SAP Access Control and IDM

Hi Expert,
I have one question What is the difference between SAP Access Control and SAP Identity Management ?

Ali,
That's a good question, but a tough one.
While both applications can do most of what the other can do, it's a matter of specialization in my opinion.
Access Control is all about managing and controlling access to SAP system roles and has the ability to report on role conflicts for compliance and reporting purposes. (I'm sure I'm leaving a lot out, but maybe a GRC / AC expert can fill in more details)
SAP IDM is about managing the user life cycle with regards to landscape and enterprise systems. It will handle the creation, update and ultimately the removal (or de-provisioning) of users in SAP ABAP, SAP JAVA, LDAP, JDBC, and API based applications. It will also do Role Management through a web based UI (User management is web based as well). and as of the latest Service pack for SAP IDM 7.2, it will do attestation (limited certification) as well. It is a definite upgrade to CUA as it will work with a greater variety of systems, include workflows and approvals.
GRC will do some provisioning, but it's somewhat limited, as is IDM's compliance abilities.
The applications are designed to work together, however it does not have a great track record and the integration is typically heavily modified to work as desired.
If you have specific questions, feel free to post / DM. Obviously I am more knowledgeable about IDM, but I'll be happy to help you in any way possible.

Whats a good mac to use for a home flight simulator with flight controls and foot pedals?

whats a good mac to use for a home flight simulator with flight controls and foot pedals?
My old 6100 AV worked great on A10 ATTACK, back in 1993.
whats a good set up now a days?
I havent seen any MAC set ups as a lot of the after market accessories are on Windows platform.
Is there a way or should I get a dedicated simulator on PC?

The fact that USB flight input devices appear to Windows only is not a limitation; for Mac most are programmed through the sim itself. I know X-Plane does that.
I've simmed a lot and know that good sims need a lot of processor and video hardware horsepower, and you'll also need a lot of RAM. They also run up the internal temps. A Mac Pro has better cooling than an iMac. You can get a program like SMCFanControl to manually set up the fans speeds before starting the sim.
I know of no sims today that will still run on a PowerPC Mac (2005 and earlier) so you need to look to an Intel Mac with top specs. If looking at iMacs, start by looking for the quad-core i7 processor. Those models usually came with an up-rated video card. Thing 12 to 16GB RAM.
My 2010 iMac has the 2.93gHz i7 processor, video hardware (ATI 5750) with 1TB VRAM, and 12 GB of RAM. It runs the x-Plane 10 demo fine but I've not bought the full version because v10 seems to make foot pedals darned near mandatory, and I don't want $100 worth of pedals under my regular work desk at the moment.

TS3474 I purchaed the earpods with mic & controls and they don't work with 6th generation nano. Are the features supposed to be compatible with this model of nano?

I purchased the earpods with mic & controls and the features don't work with 6th generation nano--is this normal?

Hi there,
According to the product page:
The remote and mic are supported by all models of iPod, iPhone, and iPad (not all models support volume up/down functions). Audio is supported by all iPod models.
Your iPod Nano may be one of the models that does not support the volume up/down function. Take a look at the page below for more information.

Version control and configuration management

How is version control and configuration management done for iPlanet6 web
and app servers?

I'm not sure if I understand exactly what you are asking. Neither iWS or
iAS have built in version control or configuration management. But
pretty much everyone integrates them with version control or SCM in some
way. Ranging from the complex (say integrating iAS and Interwoven) to
the simplistic (using CVS to track HTML documents or source code).

Could you please put it in simple way?

Hi Rajesh,
Cost allocation:
Here it is possible to charge an employeeu2019s cost center with the fee for attending a business event (e.g. training course, workshop). The business event organizeru2019s cost center will be credited and the attendeeu2019s cost center will be debited.
Crediting of the senderu2019s cost center  Debiting of the recipientu2019s cost center
The costs incurred from actually holding a business event can be transferred from the resources cost center to the business event organizeru2019s cost.
Crediting of the senderu2019s cost center  Debiting of the recipientu2019s cost center
In SAP Configuration:

Please do above configuration and create business events with or without resourses, in that you can maintain cost centre to post the expenditures .

Problem with custom control and focus

I've a problem with the focus in a custom control that contains a TextField and some custom nodes.
If i create a form with some of these custom controls i'm not able to navigate through these fields by using the TAB key.
I've implemented a KeyEvent listener on the custom control and was able to grab the focus and forward it to the embedded TextField by calling requestFocus() on the TextField but the problem is that the TextField won't get rid of the focus anymore. Means if i press TAB the first embedded TextField will get the focus, after pressing TAB again the embedded TextField in the next custom control will get the focus AND the former focused TextField still got the focus!?
So i'm not able to remove the focus from an embeded TextField.
Any idea how to do this ?

Here you go, it contains the control, skin and behavior of the custom control, the css file and a test file that shows the problem...
control:

EP 6.0 SP2 KM Access control and version problems

Hi,
We have installed EP 6.0 SP2 and have configured KM. We have created a File system repository pointing to a shared folder in the local drive. Now, we are facing the following 2 problems:
1. Access Control for Resources (folders and files) are not working..i.e, even though, we have given 'Read' access to a particular folder for a given portal user, he is still able to delete, rename, etc. How do we tackle this? Is there any property to be set for ACL to work.
ACL Manager Cache : ca_rsrc_acl
Security Manager : AclSecurityManager
are used for this particular file system repository.
2. For the very same file system repository, we are not able to get the option 'versioning' for any of the folders. while for other folders in Content Management (CM) repository, 'versioning' property appears. Why is this so? Is there any setting to be done for the property 'versioning' to appear for a file system repository?
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Pavithra

Hi,
Thanks so much for the quick response. It was quite helpful. The problem is that while trying to set up W2Ksecurity manager, the system component monitor shows the following error:
Startup Error: Exception during start up of sub-manager: The W2kSecurityManager can only be run under Windows 2000 operating systems.
Portal server is installed on Microsoft Windows 2003 server. But the file system repository is mapped to a shared drive whose host machine runs Microsoft windows 2000 professional.
My Questions:
1. Do I have to have Microsoft Windows 2000 ONLY for portal installation.
2. Can I not have a shared folder mapped to another local machine's directory
3. Also, Any ideas on whats the max length of file path for KM..Because, its likely that the file path length may extend to more than 200 characters..
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.

Problem while working with Access Control List assigned to Group

Hi,
We have a following scenario for which Access Control List is not Working.
We have a group "Webi_Grp" who should acess only Webi Reports (can perform all operations related to Webi).
Following Steps are performed but still no success...
Pl. review and provide the solutions.
1) Create a Group "Webi_Grp"
2) Create user "user3"
3) Assign User to a a group (Now user3 is part of Webi_Grp)
4) Create Access Ctrl List (ACL) "Webi_ACL"
5) Goto Included Rights section of "Webi_ACL" & select "YES" for all Webi Operations.
6) User Security in ACL shows
           a) Administrator -> Full Control (Inherited)
           b) Everyone -> No Access
7) Included Right for ACL has all Webi Rights as "GRANTED", all Deski Rights "DENY", & Few of the General Rights "GRANTED"
8) Go to Users & Group
9) Select "Webi_Grp"
10) User Security
11) Add Principal
12) Add "User3" and its Security as "Webi_ACL"
13) Thus User Security in "Webi Grp" shows
          a) Administrators -> Full Control
          b) "user3" -> Webi_ACL
14) Login With "user3", but still cant create any Webi Report
Pl. let me know any further settings are required or not.
Regards,
Purav

Hi James,
Thanks for help.
I have given ACL to Universe & now user can create Adhoc Query.
But while I run this query it gives following error "You Donot Have Rights to Access Data in this Universe"
When I check the rights status in ACL we have following rights granted for "System Universe"
Create & Edit Query Based on Universe
Data Access
Edit Access Restrictions
New List of Values
etc... all other rights in this category are granted.
Still problem persist.
Could you let me know where else should I check for permissions / rights for data access.

Purav

OLE object error when using with Access 2003 and Adobe Reader X

I link to .pdf files in Access 2003 and since upgrading to Adobe Reader X yesterday, am unable to link to these files. I receive an error stating "A problem occurred while accessing the OLE object". It goes on to tell me to verify that the file is where I say it is and that it is accessible, which it is. I can go to that file in Adobe Reader and open it.

Disable the protection mode in the preferences of Adobe Reader.

Create user menus in hierarical tree with access control

Hi All,
I am facing problem in populating user menus in hirarical against user access control.
I have table of menus in which i populate data as:
Menu
- Sub Menu 1
-- Form 1
-- Form 2
-- Form 3
- Sub Menu 2
-- Form 4
-- Form 5
-- Form 6
Now I have created hierarical query as:
SELECT -1, LEVEL, menu_name, NULL, id
FROM menu_opt
START WITH parent_id IS NULL
CONNECT BY PRIOR menu_id = parent_id
and menu_id in
(3, 4);
Note: where menu_id 3 = Form 1, Menu_id 4 = Form 2.
If I allow only menu ID 3 and 4 (not parents menus) then Hierarchy should be completed from top to bottom. What change i have to made to achieve my target?
Thankx
Qasim Javaid

Hi,
Sorry, it's very unclear what you want to do.
Whenever you have a problem, please post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data, and the results you want from that sample data.
Say which version of Oracle you're using, e.g. 11.2.0.2.0. This is always important, but especially so with CONNECT BY queries, because every version since Oracle 7 has had significant improvements in this area.
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}
If you can show the problem using commonly available tables (such as scott.emp or hr.employees, both of which contain trees) then you don't need to post any sample data; just the results you want and an explanation of how you get those results.
For example, I think you're asking something like this:
"I want to show the hierarchy in scott.emp, but I only want to show certain nodes and their descendants. For example, if I ask for 'MILLER' and 'SCOTT', I would want to see
{code}
` EMPNO ENAME
7876 ADAMS
7788 SCOTT
7934 MILLER
{code}
(order doesn't matter). ADAMS is included because ADAMS is a child of SCOTT."
Here's one way to do that:
SELECT DISTINCT
     empno, ename
FROM     scott.emp
START WITH     ename     IN ('MILLER', 'SCOTT')
CONNECT BY     mgr     = PRIOR empno
;This query should work in any version of Oracle.

User access control and WebStart

I'm considering tools and utils for a new project and WebStart looks like it could suit our needs just perfect.
Just one little question:
If I have a system with multiple applications controlled by WebStart, is it possible to restrict user access?
I need to be able to present different selections of applications to different types of users, is this possible to configure/code for WebStart?
Thankful for pointers

At what point do you want to treat different users
differently (like allowing access to different apps)?
Possible points could be:
- at the webserver level (different download pages,
that are access protected)
- different Web Start application caches (as far
as I understand under Win32 all users share
one cache - but this seems subject to some
property configuration in WebStart)
- within the application (the app expecting different
license keys, passwords or such)
- within Web Start (Web Start utility asks for password,
this could be achieved by writing a custom jnlp
client - think openjnlp as example
http://openjnlp.nanode.org/)
I think the first two options are not useful, as
users might get the application somewhere else
and just copy it onto their box - this is also
true for the last option.
So I would put access control into the applications
themselves.

IPod Touch Connecting Through Airport with Access Control

Assistance requested.
I want to connect my iPod Touch to my Airport wireless network. I have access controlled to my wireless network so that only devices with an Airport ID specified in the Airport configuration may connect to my wireless network.
Does the iPod Touch have an Airport ID that I can enter into my Airport configuration? I realy do not want to make my wireless network open to anyone.
Thank you,
Doug

Sorry,
Thank you for the contribution. I found my own answer with some searching on the iPod. This was my solution in case somebody else is having a similar problem.
Required address (Airport ID) of the iPod was found as follows:
Settings
General
About
Wi-Fi Address
Added the Wi-Fi Address to my Airport Access Control List.
On the iPod performed the following:
Settings
Wi-Fi
Choose Another Network
Typed in the wireless network name (case-sensitive)
Selected the proper security protocall
Typed in the password to access my Airport Network
Click Join
Problems connecting were resolved and my network remained closed to people not pre-approved to access it.
