OWSM Vs OSB: Security, Management and Monitoring
Has anyone done a comparison of the Security, Management and Monitoring capabilities of OSB 10gR3 and OWSM?
I think both of them have a place in the architecture, but I am looking for pointers on the overlapping capabilities in terms of security and service monitoring. When is one preferred over the other with pros and cons.
Thanks,
-J
In short OSB you configure process by process. OWSM is a layer you can put across your whole enterprise.
Other than that the functionality is very similar.

Security Manager and Policy Files
Hi all,
I am writing a simple java rmi application, but understand it wont run without a Security Manager installed and a policy file.
I think I have installed the security manger using the following in the main() method of my client application:
System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());However I am unsure how to use a policy file with this. I have looked on the internet, but it does not seem to be very well documented
Please could you advise me how to create a policy file that will work for my application and where to place it in my application so that my application can use it.
Any help would be greatfuly appreciated
Thanx
AaronAn RMI application doesn't need a security manager unless you are using the codebase feature.

Cisco Security Manager and User-aware firewall rules
Hello !
I have a firewall ASA which is managed with CSM and I try to create some user-aware rules. To do this, I need to match CSM with an Active Directory server.
I added an AAA server group matching my Active Directory server in the Identity Setting menu from Security Manager Administration and when i click on "Test", I obtain the error message "Unsuccessful Bind prevented to fetch data, please reconfigure AAA server".
What can I do to solve this problem ?
Thank you !
StephaneYou can contact your local AM to get an evaluations version, this is related to the new 'restricted' downloaded access on CCO. You need to have a service contract assocaited for that 'specific' product to download software (I know it does not make sense in case of an evaluation).
And you also have the following alternate:
Note:
This download does not include CiscoWorks Resource Manager Essentials (RME). For customers that wish to also evaluate CiscoWorks RME or that prefer a media format rather than a large download, an evaluation DVD can be ordered from Cisco Marketplace. At http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/marketplace/welcome.pl, navigate to the Collateral and Subscriptions Store and search for part number EVAL-CSMGR-4.0.

HP ProtectTools Security Manager and Windows 10
I am going to be updating to Windows 10, howevver it is saying that the HP ProtectTools Security Manager is not compatible with Windows 10. 2 questions I have. The first is: Is there going to be a replacement for these tools for Windows 10?Second is: How do I uninstall the tools so that I can proceed, properly?
Indeed! These instructions are useful but there is a newer version of Client Security Manager http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_141863_1 Just to inform others users, HP protect tools security Manager has been rebranded to Client Security Manager. So it's the same software, they just change the name and the logo

Tomcat50-jwsdp Security Manager and RMI
I need to know how to configure the Tomcat 5.0 security manager to run RMI applications.
I'm building a jax-rpc application that uses RMI to access a back-end process.
I cannot run RMI because no security manager is running:
java.rmi.RemoteException: java.rmi.ServerException: RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is:
java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling arguments; nested exception is:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: wxservice.remote.WebService$Listener (no security manager: RMI class loader disabled); nested exception is:

C:\tomcat50-jwsdp\bin\catalina.bat run -securityI get the following exception:

http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=58&thread=161874
Secondly, it is tricky but Java 2 allows a security manager to be set more than once -- it all depends on whether the currently installed manager allows to be replaced [RuntimePermission("setSecurityManager") permission].
Finally, if you expect that the user will define a security policy through command line, all you have to do is code something like this:
if (System.getSecurityManager() == null)
System.setSecurityManager(your_security_manager);to set yours only when nothing was set on the command line.

I am developping an application that uses RMI.
So in the code i must declare the RMISecurityManager as the security manager. But if the user specify the standard security manager on the command line it dont works.
I understand why, because my question is :
How the user can ensure that my application is safe if he cannot specify the basic security manager on the comnd line ( -Djava.security.manager ) ?

VISTA color management and monitor calibration
Elements 7.0
VISTA Home Premium SP1
Nvidia 8600
Samsung SyncMaster 213T
Canon XSi
Multiple printers
Since getting new system with Vista, I haven't been able to get a print that looks like my screen. I tried Costco today and everything was much darker than I expected, but the reds were much richer. I read a lot about calibrating my monitor, but it is possible that there is more do it than that? Learning to adjust skin tone etc. in Photoshop, only to have the prints look bad is pretty frustrating.
Is the other option to invest in a quality printer, or go to a real lab instead of Costco?
Please use small words, since I'm not a professional.
Regards,
MichaelMichael, color management is certainly a difficult issue to perfect. My monitor is color calibrated but it doesn't guarantee that the prints will match. With the same image, I get different results from different printers and labs. I get the best results from labs in the local camera/photo shops, and the pricing for enlargements is still on par with like Snapfish or Kodak.
Check this setting in PSE: Edit>Color Settings...>Always Optimize for Printing. I would suggest color calibrating your monitor, then try different labs until you find the best results. -

Oracle Database management and monitoring tools
hello everyone.
Could anyone offer any advice on Oracle database management tools ?
looking for a 3rd party tool that would provide graphical representation on health and activity within Oracle databases.
Any recommendations , or advice on what to avoid?
Many thanksThanks , have enterprise manager already.
Really looking for tool that will email , sms alerts
out as they happen.
Ability to set threshold alerts.
report creation of threshold data.
that kind of thing etc.Since you want to pay extra for this capability, look at the Diagnostics Pack add-on for Enterprise Manager. It does what you ask. And makes it available both on Database Control and Grid Control view.
And both Database Control and Grid Control are included in your SE/EE license. -
Are you open to SAAS Network management and monitoring?
How comfortable are you with the idea of managing your network switches/routers/Wireless AP/DNS/DHCP from outside your network?
What happens when your Internet connection fails?
Even with encryption (VPN/SSH Tunnel/SSL), can it ever truly be safe?
What environments would this be ideal for?

Rmi with security manager not working in netbeans
Hello i'm trying to use rmi but get the error java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission 127.0.0.1:1099 connect,resolve) when i run it in netbeans. here is my code
public static void main(String[] args) {
if (System.getSecurityManager() == null) {
System.setSecurityManager(new SecurityManager());
try {
String name = "Compute";
Compute engine = new ComputeEngine();
Compute stub =
(Compute) UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(engine, 0);
Registry registry = LocateRegistry.getRegistry();
registry.rebind(name, stub);
System.out.println("ComputeEngine bound");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("ComputeEngine exception:");
e.printStackTrace();
}It works if i don't have a security manager and it works with a security manager if i don't use netbeans to run it and use the command line. i need to use a secuirty manager because the client code is running in eclipse and it moans that there is no security manager if i run it without one
this is the error i get when running with no security manager
java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: takenoteremote.Compute (no security manager: RMI class loader disabled)
Please helpI have sort of got it to work, i took out the security manager and used the code base parameter on the command line, and put my interface into a jar file. I can only get it to work though on the command line, if i run it in netbeans it doesn't find the class in the jar file it needs.
Any ideas? -
Security manager not used with JNDI ?!
Hi,
I have a simple stand-alone java app that does a JNDI lookup
and subsequent method invocation on the returned session bean.
I never explicitly install a security manager and am wondering
why there are no security problems getting the bean proxy
and any subsequent code downloads from the WebLogic server.
Seems like this would never work under under pure RMI, so
what's going on in this case?
Thanks, GarryHi,
According to the screenshot, it seems like compatibility problem, What's the type of your system?
In addition, you can refer to the link below to view its compatibility list.

Default Administrator password in BI Administration Tool - Security Manager
Hello all,
I'm new to OBIEE and have recently been playing around in the BI Administration Tool to create my own repository (.rpd) metadata files from demo DBs. I selected "Manage" -> "Security" to open Security Manager and then set a logging level of 2 on the Administrator user.
UNFORTUNATELY, there is a default password that apparently gets specified that I didn't notice, so when I closed my repository file and tried to re-open it, it is now challenging me for a password that I didn't set, don't know, and have not been able to find in documentation or posted threads anywhere.
Has anyone else ever come across this problem before or know the default password? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.Guys,
First, let me thank you all for you quick responses and willingness to give me a hand. It's greatly appreciated. And thanks Ally for noticing the name! Glad you liked it. :)
Unfortunately, my problem still exists. None of the following passwords worked for me: <blank>, "Administrator", "administrator", or "ADMINISTRATOR".
Also, I should clarify for the thread that I'm not using Paint.rpd or SH.rpd; I'm creating my own repository from scratch. For those who read this post and have literally 90 seconds to spare, I would ask you to try and recreate this same thing with me and see if it's just me (and if I'm crazy):
1) Open OBI Administration Tool
2) DO NOT open an existing repository, create a new one. Name it whatever; mine is the default "Metadata1.rpd"
3) Don't bother adding any metadata to it, go immediately to "Manage" --> "Security" --> "Users" and open up the Administrator user by double-clicking it.
4) Notice there is a "Password" and "Confirm Password" value already defined by default! DON'T change it (this is the password in question that I accidentally accepted). Just click the "OK" button without making any changes to that form.
5) Save, close, and then try to re-open this repository you just created. It should be challenging you for a password now, right? And I bet it will not accept <blank> or any variation of "Administrator".
Believe me, I know better now in the future to not let this happen. But I can't for the life of me figure out this password that was automatically populated and WHY there would be one there in the first place! I was walking through a lab that told me to open this security setting for Administrator to set a logging level, but it did not mention anything about a setting a password. So, I created a repository that I have now magically locked myself out of. :)
Can anyone else please try to recreate this and let me know if it's just me or not? I am using BI Administration Tool version: 10.1.3.3.2.071217.1900.
Thanks again guys. -
