Password authentication

HI,
Has anyone tried to use LDAP password authentication to authenticate a user connecting to a Oracle 8i database.
Is it possible, that the user can connect to a 8i database with a username and password. Afterward the database wil redirect the authentication to an external LDAP service (Oracle Internet Directory 2.1.1). When OID has validated the users credentials, the user will be connected to a shared schema on the database where the user was connecting. The database schema and roles will then be retrieved from OID.
Has anyone tried this scenario without sertificates. I can make this work when using client and server certificates, but not without.
-Database configuration (ex. sqlnet.ora...)?
-Do I need du create any user in the database?
-Other configuration steps...
It seems to be possible within a 9i enviroment, but this isn't possible on this project!

Check that your settings for the mail server are correct (address of imap/pop server etc.). I would also ask the technical support for the service you are trying to access since they know their setup better and will be able to tell you what settings you need.

Use of active directory userid/password authentication instead of SAP R/3 User/Password for digital signature?

Dear all,
I am looking to setup the use of active directory userid/password authentication instead of SAP R/3 User/Password for digital signature. We SSO to the backened ABAP AS via an SAP NW Portal to which SPNEgo kerberos authentication is setup. Today we specify R3 user id/password to digitally approvae a lot release. The idea is to have users maintain one AD password and don't have to remember the R/3 password anymore and also our Security team to avoid password maintenance.
I know there are 3 options for digital signature and
System signature with authorization by user ID and password (We use this currently)
Digital User signature with verification - (We would like to use this with AD userid/password, so the system still ask the users their AD userid/password for the authentication when they try to "sign" a document.)
User signature without verification
Do you think there is a way to configure the system in order to ask and check the active directory userid/password instead of SAP R/3 password? Where can I found documentation about it ?
I have several different versions of AS ABAP starting from NW 7.02 to NW 7.31.
My active directory is based on Windows 2008.
Thanks in advance!!

Actually enabling Kerberos for SSO purposes and enabling Kerberos for digital signatures are two different topics although the latter is because of the former. I'm interested in the topic as well and I'm currently looking at different options. SAP provides a BAdI for the digital signature API which can be used for external authentication but they do not provide the solution to invoke Kerberos authentication based on username and password. SAP provides a semi solution with NWSSO 2.0 SP2 which works only on Windows with classic dynpros meaning SAP GUI for Windows is assumed. The solution is based on an ActiveX component which does the actual Kerberos authentication using the Secure Login Client which is part of the NWSSO suite. Extending that implementation to non-Windows and non-GUI applications would require some sort of web enabled service that could be used to authenticate the user with username and password. In case authentication is successful, a Kerberos token would be returned to SAP which would then be validated. All the required pieces are there since SAP has Kerberos support now in both stacks of the NetWeaver Application Server, some bits are still missing though which leaves customers looking at 3rd party or custom solutions.

EUS password authentication in sql developer failing with username/password

We have recently changed to use Enterprise User Security (EUS) for our client authentication (password global authentication).
This is working fine but we are encountering an issue with SQL Developer whereby we can't logon using our EUS details, it simply returns the following on the logon screen:
Status : Failure - Test failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Logging on via sql plus client and server software and other 3rd party tools like pl/sql developer works correctly.
It appears to be an issue with sql developer itself.
We are using the latest Production release of sql developer 2.1
Does anyone have any ideas?

Further to this, I have now found a suitable resolution to this that doesn't require an external client.
There is a jdbc setting that will allow you to use EUS password authentication.
Add the jdbc line option (below) in the sqldeveloper.conf file (backup the sqldeveloper.conf file first).
AddVMOption -Doracle.jdbc.thinLogonCapability=o3
The sqldeveloper.conf file can be found wherever you have installed sqldeveloper, under <INSTALL_HOME>\sqldeveloper\bin\sqldeveloper.conf.
After you add this option, restart SQL Developer and you should be able to use your EUS username / password to authenticate via SQL Developer.

Password Authentication System through VoiceXML

I would like to write a program for password authentication through VoiceXML, may I know how to get start?
The username and password has been stored on a SQL server. Please help! My boss gave me a new task but just got limited time to complete. Thanks in advance.

You probably want to try the Cisco Developer forum for this.

SOAP Header based user/password authentication in OSB 11g Proxy Service

Hi,
I have implemented SOAP Header based authentication in my OSB 11g Proxy Service.
In the Security settings of my AnySOAP(Soap 1.1) HTTP Proxy service, I have amde the following changes:
1.
In Transport Access Control link, i selected the User predicate, and provided an user already existing on weblogic server with following roles(AppTesters, Monitors, Operators).
The AuthorizationProvider was XACMLAuthorizer
2.
Under Custom Authentication, I selected the Custom User Name and Password option, and provided the below mentiioned xpaths
User Name XPath: ./*/*:Username/text()
User Password XPath: ./*/*:Password/text()
3.
In Message Access Control link, i selected the User predicate with the same user as mentioned in Transport Access Control link.
Now, when I am testing this service from OSB Test Console, I am providing the following input.
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:N1="http://abcd.com/common/bodcomponents/transactional/model/1.0/">
<soap:Header>
<AuthHeader>
<N1:Username>userXYZ</N1:Username>
<N1:Password>passXYZ</N1:Password>
</AuthHeader>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>

</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
The response is "The invocation resulted in an error: ."
The OSB server logs show the below error:

Please suggest where I am going wrong in this. I have cross checked the user/pass credentials with what I am giving in the input, and it is perfectly fine.

I have added the Username and Password as follows, since the namespace declaration was required due to the namespace prefix 'N1' in the XPath
declare namespace N1="http://abcd.com/common/bodcomponents/transactional/model/1.0/";./AuthHeader/N1:Username/text()
declare namespace N1="http://abcdp.com/common/bodcomponents/transactional/model/1.0/";./AuthHeader/N1:Password/text()
I have removed the Message Access Control conditions, have only kept Transport Access Control conditions.
If i keep the condition in Transport Access Control as "Allow access to everyone", and test with proper credentials in the Username/Password tags in SOAP Header, then it works fine. However, if I try to give an incorrect password in the SOAP Header, it denies the access. So that means the XPaths given for Username/Password are working fine. The OSB logs show the below message

Logon failure with username/password authentication in WLE 5.1

Hi,
I have WLE 5.1 configured and running on a Win2K system. I am able to
build and run the simpapp sample program. I am also able to build the
interceptor_cxx sample and run with all interceptors other than the
security interceptor. What I realised in this case was that the
PersonQueryClient did not perform any login of a user from which the
security interceptor could extract user ID information (have I missed
something? I am a WLE and CORBA newbie) so I modified the ubb config
file to define SECURITY as USER_AUTH and add the AUTHSVC, modified
personqueryclientc.cpp to get access to the SecurityLevel2 principal
authenticator, built the app, created a user with the tpussradd command,
and ran the app (the AUTHSVC successfully starts).
The Tobj::AuthType returned by the get_auth_type method of the
PrincipalAuthenticator is Tobj::TOBJ_APPAUTH as I expect. I call the
logon method with the parameters (user_name, argv[0], sys_password,
password, 0) where user_name is the same as the user I created with the
tpusradd command, argv[0] is personqueryclient (I've tried tpusradd'ing
the user both with the "-c personqueryclient" argument and without),
sys_password is the password I specified when tmloadcf was run against
the modified ubb config file, password is the password I specified when
I ran tpusradd. The logon always fails returning
Security::SecAuthFailure. In the ULOGxxxx file the following message is
displayed:
181605.NUMBAT!TMSYSEVT.2180: LIBTUX_CAT:1484: WARN: .SysClientSecurity:
User tbartley on SITE1 authentication failure
I've tried running in the following manners all with the same result:
1. With or without the security_cxx interceptor registered
2. With the user in or not in a group
3. With the the user created using the "-c personqueryclient" arg to
tpusradd or not
If I change the security level down to APP_PW then everything works and
the security_cxx interceptor sees a client name of personqueryclient and
a username of personqueryclient. The logon fails if I use a sys_password
other than the one specified to tmloadcf and succeeds if I use the
correct password.
Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong in the username/password
authentication case?
Here's the code I inserted to personqueryc.cpp to perform the logon:
// Get SecurityCurrent object
CORBA::Object_var var_security_current_oref
= bootstrap.resolve_initial_references("SecurityCurrent");
SecurityLevel2::Current_var var_security_current_ref =
SecurityLevel2::Current::_narrow(var_security_current_oref.in());
// Get the principal authenticator
SecurityLevel2::PrincipalAuthenticator_var
var_principal_authenticator_oref =
var_security_current_ref->principal_authenticator();
char user_name[100] = "";
char password[100] = "";
char sys_password[100] = "";
// Narrow to a BEA Principal Authenticator
Tobj::PrincipalAuthenticator_var v_bea_pa =
Tobj::PrincipalAuthenticator::_narrow(var_principal_authenticator_oref.in());
// See what level of logon has been turned on
Tobj::AuthType auth_type = v_bea_pa->get_auth_type();
cout << "Auth type: ";
switch (auth_type) {
case Tobj::TOBJ_APPAUTH: cout << "TOBJ_APPAUTH"; break;
case Tobj::TOBJ_SYSAUTH: cout << "TOBJ_SYSAUTH"; password[0] = '\0';
break;
case Tobj::TOBJ_NOAUTH: cout << "TOBJ_NOAUTH"; break;
default: cout << "TOBJ_<unknown>"; break;
cout << endl;
cout << "Username: ";
cin >> user_name;
switch (auth_type) {
case Tobj::TOBJ_APPAUTH: {
cout << "User password: ";
cin >> password;
// fall through
case Tobj::TOBJ_SYSAUTH: {
cout << "App password: "; cin >> sys_password;
break;
default: {
break;
// now that we've got all the data necessary, logon
Security::AuthenticationStatus status =
v_bea_pa->logon(user_name,
argv[0],
sys_password,
password,
0); // user data
cout << "Logon result: ";
switch (status) {
case Security::SecAuthSuccess: cout << "SecAuthSuccess"; break;
case Security::SecAuthFailure: cout << "SecAuthFailure"; break;
case Security::SecAuthContinue: cout << "SecAuthContinue"; break;
case Security::SecAuthExpired: cout << "SecAuthExpired"; break;
default: cout << "SecAuth<unknown>"; break;
cout << endl;
if (status != Security::SecAuthSuccess) {
cerr << "Invalid password." << endl;
exit(1);
Here are the entries I added to the ubb config file:
*RESOURCES
SECURITY USER_AUTH
AUTHSVC AUTHSVR
*SERVERS
AUTHSVR SRVGRP=SYS_GRP SRVID=6 RESTART=Y GRACE=600 MAXGEN=2 CLOPT="-A"
I do not have the WLE Security Services installed (i.e. the package
that provides SSL and crypto). Is this required? It's not clear to me
from the documentation if this is required for username/password based
authentication or not.
Thanks for any help,

Hi Michael
I am using SSL in my application. So that it asks for the certificate username
and password while startup. But now i want to mention the username and password
in weblogic.properties file itself. So that the client need not have to provide
the username and password everytime. I am using weblogic server 5.1 version.
How do i do this?
Hope my question is clear. Please help.

Hi.
It's not 100% clear to me what you are asking for. Do you want authentication
turned off for
your application? That will certainly turn off prompting for authentication
information. You
can set your ACL for your application (in your properties file) to allow
everyone to execute
it. Something like:
weblogic.allow.execute.<myApplication>=everyone
But maybe you want some kind of silent authentication so that not everyone
can execute your
app? I suppose you could pass authentication info in a cookie. I really
don't know enough
about your application, though.
I suggest you post this question in weblogic.developer.interest.security
- you have a better
chance of getting an answer there for security related questions.
Hope this helps.

Username and Password authentication

Hi,
I am new to both JDBC and MSSQL. I've been connecting to msSQL server without providing username and password (DriverManager.getConnection(String url)). I am wondering how to enforce the username and password authentication so that username and password have to be verified before a connection is made. Thanks in advance.

but where can I get the username & password? I can get
the connection even with any username & password, why?Hi WeiHang,
This is regarding the options you have set in the SQL Server. You have to choose from Windows NT authentication and SQL Server Authentication. If you give SQL Server authentication you have mentioned the username and password and you can connect to database simple using DSN(if you are using JDBC-ODBC). However if you choose WindowsNT authentication you donot specify the user name and password there and you have to enter the same at runtime.
Hope this can help you

WSDL security policy username & password authentication

Hi,
I am creating a WS policies in WSDL for username & password authentication , below is what I am using:-
<wsdl:service name="echoService">
    <wsdl:port name="echoPort" binding="tns:echoBinding">
        <soap:address location="http://pponnala-tecra-xp.stc.com:18181/

       </wsp:Policy>
</mysp:UsernameToken>
</wsp:Policy>
Here I need to pass the <Wsspassword> in the respective placeholder from the application. How we can pass
the respective password to the <sp:WssPassword>${pass_token}</sp:WssPassword>? I have hardcoded with some
valid password. But it is not working. What I am doing wrong here? Is there any way we can validate the authentication
in a better way in WSDL? Also clarify now we can pass the password in the respective pass_token placeholder?
Please clarify.
Thanks.

If you want the script to check whether the user successfully logged in. Go to tester's perspective, click on the POST request of the login and view HTML page response. There you should be able to see the page after successful login. Search and select an element that only appears after successful login, right click the test and create a variable. Use that variable to create a check after the POST request to let the script know whether it should continue or fail the script.

Anybody done USERID/PASSWORD authentication against aWindows NT Domain

I think I'll have to write a C++ Program to the WinNT API to do it
(LogonUser). Then I'll wrap it with a service object for authentication. Has
it been done before? Or something similar? We want to validate users against
a WindowsNT Server DOMAIN.
-martin ([email protected])

Hi Martin & All,
Yes you are right, wrap the API in C++/C then write a PEX file for interface to Forté and use the method to invoke the WinNT API authentication. Do not forget to validate the return values from the methods. They are very crucial in handling exceptions etc., in forte.
I've done the same to provide the mail user authentication in MAPI API wrapper for Forté.
Is this what you looking for????

Provide second level logon / password authentication in Portal.

I would like to customize our portal using second level logon/password authentication for few of the pages/iviews.
We have Single Sign on provided to portal so, user is not going to get logon page initially, once he gets into ESS Module where he has to see his /her personal information for which we are planing to ask user to enter his / her password or logout him if that is incorrect.
please let me know if any one know if there is any inbuilt functionality already available in Portal.
I am planing to write a Portal Compnent Project using Jspdynpage/PAR project.
Thanks a lot.

If you are using windows integrated authentication then what is the purpose of using logoff link. You can hide it.
The purpose of windows authentication is to directly logon with out furthur authentication.
Eventhough you click logoff it will redirect again into the portal.
If you still want to show logoff link then modify the masthead par file , so that when you click on the logoff button the browser will close. This you can do in Headeriview.jsp
Otherwise you can redirect to the some other page after clickin the logoff link. Search in SDN for that.

How do I remove password authentication from mail

How do I remove password authentication from mail?

interesting- on my iPhone ( i havent checked my iPad) - under the smtp server - the pssword is listed as being optional - could it be that your smtp server really requires a password?
otherwise a call to Apple support might be in order

Os authentication vs password authentication

In my database server remote_login_passwordfile parameter showing in exclusive mode. But i am connecting to the server through telnet as sqlplus "/as sysdba".
Actually in exclusive mode we need to login as a password authentication( connect sys/password as sysdba).
Why it is accepting ? can any body explain this one?

REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE specifies whether Oracle checks for a password file and how many databases can use the password file.It can have values NONE/SHARED or EXCLUSIVE
NONE
Oracle ignores any password file. Therefore, privileged users must be authenticated by the operating system.

More than one database can use a password file. However, the only user recognized by the password file is SYS.
EXCLUSIVE
The password file can be used by only one database and the password file can contain names other than SYS.
REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT specifies whether remote clients will be authenticated with the value of the OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX parameter.
OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX specifies a prefix that Oracle uses to authenticate users attempting to connect to the server. Oracle concatenates the value of this parameter to the beginning of the user's operating system account name and password. When a connection request is attempted, Oracle compares the prefixed username with Oracle usernames in the database.
The default value of this parameter is OPS$
Hope this answers all your questions.

Email Access with Secure Password Authentication [SPA]

Hi All,
I am sorry if this question is repeated.
My company uses Secure Password Authentication [SPA] to access POP3/SMTP Email access. I was able to configure the email to my iPhone before Company forced SPA.
Can anybody provide instructions to configure the SPA in iphone?
Thanks for the help in advance.

Apparently 4.3.3 broke my exchange password authentication and is locking my work computer. Can I restore previos IOS?

Any help will be appreciated. I upgraded to 4.3.3 and it apparently broke the password authentication for my work exchange account. I can't get my iCal on my desktop after Lion and now this. Grrr. It continues to hit the server and locks me out so I can't get email from any computer. Does anyone have a fix? If not can I restore the previous version? It was working perfect.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, it is not possible to downgrade to a previous iOS. Apple doesn't support it.

The smtp server doesnt support password authentication.

This warning comes up when I try to set up my email. According to my email service I'm supposed to turn off password authentication for the outgoing server but I can't seem to figure out how to spit

The authentication option in the settings only offers
Password
MD5 challenge response
NTLM
HTTPMD5 digest
There is no option to turn it off???
