Password Case inSensitivity

Hello,
Is there a way to make user password case insensitive in OID?
If not is there a way to convert the password to lower/upper case before it stores in OID and then during authentication, convert the user entered pwd to same case before comparing ?
OID version : 10.1.2
Regards

This might be possible using the password policies, check the OID manual section on password policy.
If it is not you can customize it using plugins. You would need a add and modify plugin to make the password lowercase before storing it, and a compare and a bind plugin to convert it when the user is loging on.
Regards,
Luis

Case insensitive user login

Hi,
I am working on a Weblogic portal application (Weblogic 10.3.2) to be deployed in a Weblogic Server 10.3.2. I want to enable case insensitive user name login for my application. Looks like by defaule user name goes for a case sensitive authentication. Is there any way to enable case insensitive authentication? Thanks.

Hi
By default Weblogic Login UserId is Case-InSensitive. For quick testing, open your Weblogic Console and say if your admin user id is "weblogic", just try any combination of this value like "WEBloGiC" with his password. It works and you should be able to login.
NOW if you have any External LDAP configured, still you can login with your userid as Case InSensitive. BUT if you see that some Visitor Entilements or DAs stuff is not getting triggered or working properly, then you can do one setting. In your Weblogic Console, select your external AD Provider (like LDAP, AD etc) and click on the properties tab, where you set the host, port, userbase dn, groupbase dn etc. There you should see another property like a CheckBox named something like "Use Retrieved Username as Principal". What this means is if you say for example login as "RJegGA", the login will be successfull but the value that gets stored in the session in security subject value will be like "rjegga" where rjegga is the actual name coming from external LDAP.
So point is, check the above check box and try again. For any users stored in the Default Weblogic Authenticator itself, it is case insensitive.
Thanks

Case INSENSITIVE Columns on Oracle

Hello Friends,
Good Monday for everyone....
I would like to ask you guys if there is a way to create a case INSENSITIVE Columns on Oracle. I used on Sqlserver before the COLLATE sintax, and I was able to make a columns (just that one) INSENSITIVE.
I'm using oracle 10gr2 on Windows plataform and herte is my nls_parameters. My ideia is to search on this column without the need of performing a function UPPER and LOWER and etc...

There is nothing to be done on 10g, other than building a function based index on the column in question, so that any UPPER() searches are optimized.
Well, as Kamran Agayev already noted CI is available in 10g too. It also worth mentioning FBI creates a hidden column. Also, your statement
In 11g we have the option to set the NLS_SORT parameter so that any searches are case-insensitive (or indeed accent insensitive). Find out more.
is incomplete. NLS_SORT affects nothing but sort:

GetOrdinal of AseDataReader Class is not doing case-insensitive search

hi,
I am working on 12.5.4 version of sybase ASE.I am using 'Sybase.AdoNet2.AseClient.dll' to connect with database. I am using GetOrdinal method of ASEDatareader class (that as per documentation performs a case-sensitive lookup first. If it fails , a second search that is case-insensitive occurs) but in my case it is not performing case-insensitive search. I am attaching the document for your reference.
http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.infocenter.dc20066.1570100/doc/html/san1364409576274.html
Thanks,

Hi Monica,
Another thing you want to make sure is on your ASE that the oledb/adonet MDA scripts are up to snuff. Some of our fixes in the driver are in this.
If you login into the ASE and get the output of sp_version.
You should get something like this:
OLEDB MDA Scripts
         15.7.0.1250.1013/Wed Feb 19 UTC 00:28:47 2014
The ado.net driver and the older oledb driver use some specific MDA scripts on the ASE.
Read the coverletter of the SDK (Software Developers Kit for ASE). It explains how to update the MDA scripts. They are on the client side $sybase\ADONET\sp.
So where you downloaded the SDK you want to click Info then look for the README.
This is all the SDKs:
* Updating the metadata stored procedures required by ODBC, OLE DB and
jConnect Drivers on Adaptive Server Enterprise
Certain new features and bug fixes in ODBC, OLE DB and jConnect drivers
require you to modify the metadata stored procedures in Adaptive Server.
These stored procedures may not be up-to-date on your host ASE server due
to various reasons.
If the metadata stored procedures are outdated, you may not be able to use
some of the fixes that are implemented in this SP/ESD, so you will need to
manually install the updated metadata stored procedures.
To update the metadata stored procedures in Adaptive Server, first determine
the version of the meta-data scripts installed on the ASE. To do so, execute
the following command:
sp_version
go
The version number of the ODBC, OLE DB and jConnect meta-data scripts will
be displayed.
Review the version number column and compare it against the version of the
driver being used.
If the metadata scripts are outdated, the version installed will be older
than the driver build number or you will encounter one of the following:
- stored procedure sp_version is not found
- the stored procedure output does not print a row for the driver
The updated scripts are included with the drivers and can be installed as
follows:
For ODBC & OLE DB:
- Go the "sp" directory under the ODBC/OLE DB installation directory
- Execute the install_odbc_sprocs script for the ODBC Driver and
install_oledb_sprocs script for OLE DB Provider.
Syntax for using the script is:
        install_[odbc/olebd]_sprocs <ServerName> <username> [<password>]
         where <ServerName> is the name of the Adaptive Server
             <username> is the username to connect to the server
             [<password>] is the password the username
             (don’t supply this for null password)
For jConnect:
- Go to the "sp" directory under the jConnect installation directory. Based
on your host ASE server version, choose the appropriate SQL script.
- Use isql or another tool of your choice to execute the selected script.
This will install the current meta-data stored procedures.
Thanks,
Dawn

Making user account logins/passwords case sensitive?

Possible to do case-insensitive searches?

G'day,
I was wondering if it's possible to do case-insensitive searches in oracle/HTMLDB?
I've tried what I thought would work
"select * from application where name like '%microsoft%'", this unfortunately doesn't return any records with a capital in it(eg "Microsoft").
If there is no way to do case-insensitive searches what is the best way around it?
Thanks
-Colin

Colin,
Yes it is possible to do case insensitive searches using SQL. Try, for example:
select * from application where upper(name) like '%ORACLE%'
The trick is to upper() both sides of the like operator.

How to change Database server is case-insensitive setting at runtime

Is there a way to change any of the properties in Report Options > General Settings at runtime. Mainly the [Database server is case-insensitive] and [Perform grouping on server] settings. We are using the Crystal .Net X1 runtimes (11.5.9707.811). I have sesrched the forums with no luck so thought I'd try my luck here. Thankyou for your time.

Hi Simon,
Sorry, search for the function using the Object Browser in .NET. If you have Crsytal Reports XI R2 (11.5.x.xxxx) then you have it. Unless it's not a developer version. In whcih case you need to upgrade.
If you do have the Developer version then simply add the RAS assemblies to your project. Look in our samples above for more info on h ow to use RAS.
If you don't have the Developer version then your only options are to upgrade or manually change the report settings in the Designer.
Thank you
Don

How do I move my large iTunes collection from a case-sensitive hard drive to a case-insensitive hard drive?

I currently keep my iTunes media on an external hard drive because it takes up too much space on my machine. I recently discovered that it was formatted as case-sensitive when I bought it, and now months later I'm having issues. When attempting to back up my files on a case-insensitive hard drive, the operation failed due to conflicting file/folder names (Artist and artist are now considered the same file name and one would have to overwrite the other). I now have a large iTunes file collection that is stuck on the case-sensitive hard drive, and I want to save a backup on a case-insensitive drive.
Is there a way to identify all cases where multiple files/folders have the same title/album/artist but different spelling so there will be no conflicts? The folder/file names would have to be crossed referenced to highlight any cases where File/fiLe/file would cause a problem.
I imagine there is a way to do this using iTunes script or Automator or a command in terminal or something rather than going through and checking/fixing all the information for thousands of songs by hand. I'm at the limits of my minimal development skills, so any help would be appreciated.

You should be able to use either "Carbon Copy Cloner" or "SuperDuper" (free for this purpose) to copy your case-sensitive volume to an empty case-insensitive one. Make at least two such copies on different drives. One is not enough to be safe.
If there are any name conflicts—that is, files in the same folder with names that differ only in case, such as "File" and "file"—then you will either get an error or one of the files won't be copied. You must ensure either that no such conflicts exist, or that the consequences are not important. How you do that is up to you. Unless you went out of your way to create conflicts, they probably don't exist.
Then erase the source volume in Disk Utility as case-insensitive. This action will remove all data from the volume.
Restore from one of your backups using the same application you used to create it, or use the "Restore" feature of Disk Utility, which will be faster. Search its built-in help for the term "duplicate" if you need instructions.

Time Machine says both of my external hard drives require reformatting to case insensitive. What do I do?

I have been successfuly using Time Machine to back my iMac to an external hard drive (via usb) and everything has been fine for the last year. I have been using TM to back up to a HD called Terra LaCie via usb.
A week ago, my iMac hard drive was full--so I spulrged and bought a 6 TB external hard drive (Western Digital My Book-Thunderbolt). I set up the new Thunderbold HD to use RAID 1 (mirror) and copied most of my iMac hard drive over to the Thunderbolt HD.
I kept my working photographs (most recent) on my iMac and felt good to know my older photographs are on my new Thunderbolt hard drive.
For a few days, Time Machine seemed to work fine (backing up my iMac to Terra LaCie HD. I haven't been concerned with backing up the Thunderbolt drive (as I feel that mirroring is same as backing up).
Yesterday, Time Machine indicated the lastest back-up failed (for the HD called Terra LaCie). Now, when I go into Time Machine, the dialog box indicates the following message:
"Are you sure you want to erase the backup disk “Terra Lacie”? Erasing will destroy all information on the disk and can’t be undone.
The disk must be erased before it can be used for Time Machine backups because a disk you are backing up is case sensitive, but the backup disk is not."
When I open Time Machine to look at my external hard drives (I also have a third usb portable drive); two of the three drives indicate the following:
"reformat required; case insensitive disk".
The small, portable hard drive (that I'm also using) doesn't say it needs to be reformated (but my new Thunderbolt and my old usb HD both indicate the same message (above).
What should I do? I just spent days transferring my photographs from my iMac to my new Thunderbolt. Should I just not use Time Machine any longer and work from my Thunderbolt drive?
Am I to understand that my iMac suddenly become case sensitive? Sorry if this was too much information about my hard-ware set-up.
Any help someone can provide me would be greatly appreciated. I suppose I need to understand Time Machine and perhaps my Thunderbolt better.

Hi BDAqua,
Bravo, you helped me solve my problem.
The Case Sensitive Disk was the small portable hard drive that I was using termporarily.
I just disconnected it and I started TM machine and everything seems to be working just fine.
Thank you very much!!!!

How do I convert a case sensitive drive to a case insensitive drive?

I have recently purchased a MacMini Server, and installed the 2 internal hard drives in a RAID 0 configuration to obtain the speed and 1 TB capacity, but unfortunately (rather stupidly in retrospect) formatted the drive in case sensitive mode.
On installing the operating system and multiple applications, everything seemed to work well until I tried to install Adobe Acrobat X Pro. This application refuses to install on a case sensitive formatted drive, which I now understand is a common problem.
The question is how can I convert to a case insensitive format without reinstalling all of the software from scratch?
I have a Time Machine backup, and the easiest thing for me would be to reformat the drive, and then restore from the Time Machine backup.
Will this process work? Or will there be some complications and files that will not function if they were originally installed on a case sensitive drive?
Any help is appreciated....

iPartition can do it ( http://www.coriolis-systems.com/iPartition.php ).
from iPartition Help:
Make Case Sensitive/Case Insensitive
HFS+ now supports a case sensitive format as well as the usual case insensitive format. On a case sensitive volume, the names “Readme”, “README” and “ReadMe” would all represent different files, even if they were in the same folder.
This option allows you to non-destructively change a case sensitive volume into a case insensitive one, and vice-versa. If you are going from a case sensitive volume to a case insensitive volume, some of your files may be renamed automatically by iPartition so that they do not clash. If all of the files in the table below were in the same directory, the right hand column shows the new names iPartition would choose for them:
Old name New name
README.txt README.txt
ReadMe.txt ReadMe 1.txt
Readme.txt Readme 2.txt
README README
ReadMe ReadMe 1
Readme Readme 2
Notice that iPartition puts the number before any file extension.
N.B. iPartition does not transform filenames with numbers on the end back into their original forms. There is no way to tell which files were renamed by the user and which were renamed by the conversion process.

Case-Insensitive File Name Search on Unix

Hello,
I have a program which runs on a Unix OS and it looks for some files like file.csv, and then reads these files. Basically I know the file name and I look for that file name in a particular directory.
Now, I want to make my program case-insensitive so that if the file name is file.csv or File.csv or FILE.csv, it should still locate that file and read it.
Any advice....
Thanks.

Thanks.
Probably I have to get all the file names in that
directory and then try to match against the file name
(using ignore case or toUpperCase() maybe), which I
am looking for.
Is there a way, where I don't have to get all the
file names in that directory and can just go and get
the FileReader Object etc for the file which I am
looking for.No

Specifying Case-Insensitive Element Names in XML Schema

Hope someone knows this!
Is it possible to define an an XML Schema Definition so that Element names in the target XML File can be case insensitive.
At the moment my Parser throws an error if the element names in the XML file do not have the exact same case as the definition in the XML schema.
E.g
In Schema i have:
<xsd:element name="HOSTINVENTORYLINE" type="HostInventoryLineType" maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0"/>
but in xml file i have
<HostInventoryLine field=""/>
or
<hostinventoryline field=""/>
Does anyone know anyway to get around this, so that the parser accepts the HostInventoryLine element in the xml as an instance of the HOSTINVENTORYLINE element defined in the schema.
Thanks in Advance
JJ

You could use substitution groups to handle this. You would need an entry in the schema for each valid capitalization. This won't scale well if you want to be completely case insensitive, but if you only support lower case, upper case, and camel case it should do the trick.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
     <xs:complexType name="HostInventoryLineType">
          <xs:sequence>
               <xs:element name="an-element" type="xs:string"/>
          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
     <xs:element name="HostInventoryLine" type="HostInventoryLineType"/>
     <xs:element name="HOSTINVENTORYLINE" type="HostInventoryLineType" substitutionGroup="HostInventoryLine"/>
     <xs:element name="hostinventoryline" type="HostInventoryLineType" substitutionGroup="HostInventoryLine"/>
</xs:schema>-Blaise

How can I copy media from an HFS case-sensitive drive to an HFS case-insensitive drive without getting an error?

About a year ago, I accidentally created a partition on my drive for my iTunes Music. On that parition, called MUSIC, I selected the filesystem to be an HFS, Journaled, case-sensitive partition. Since then, all of my music, new and old, lives on the case-sensitive MUSIC parition.
My other partition, called BOX, is an HFS, Journaled, case-insensitive filesystem, as are my external drives I use for archiving and backing up my music.
My dilemma: when I try to copy my music/iTunes media from the MUSIC partition to a different partition that's case-insensitive, I obviously run into errors saying that certain files can't be copied because they will overwrite others. Subsequently, I can't back up my music and iTunes media to another drive unless it has the same filesystem parameters favoring case-sensitivity. I want to move my media to a case-insenstive drive/partition.
As the story goes, I'd like to avoid having to reformat and worry about moving my media around because I feel, in the end, I'd end up doing more harm then good in my pursuit to fix this issue.
My question: is there some way I can detect which files are conflicting with each other, and then manually rename them? My music library runs about 16,000 songs deep, but I'd still feel saved even if I had to go through and manually rename all of the music files so they don't conflict with each other in order to get them on to a case-insensitive drive. Perhaps there's an AppleScript someone knows about that I could execute in my MUSIC partition to see which files/directories are causing my problems? In other words, I'm thinking there could be a way to detect the same file/directory names that are only different soley because of their case.
Any help, suggestions, or solutions are welcome. Thank you all for your time in helping me solve this!
And have a Happy Thanksgiving

the query should return all the results
which matches any of the following strings as inputs "HARI" or "HaRi" or "hAri" or the like.
Awaiting for Response,
Thanks & Regards

Another solution is setting NLS_SORT to CI - case insensitive (or whatever_your_language_is_CI) and NLS_COMP to ANSI:
SQL> with t as (
2             select 'HARI' name from dual union all
3             select 'Hari' name from dual union all
4             select 'HaRi' name from dual
5            )
6 select *
7    from t
8    where name = 'hArI'
9 /
no rows selected
SQL> alter session set nls_sort = binary_ci
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> alter session set nls_comp=ansi
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> with t as (
2             select 'HARI' name from dual union all
3             select 'Hari' name from dual union all
4             select 'HaRi' name from dual
5            )
6 select *
7    from t
8    where name = 'hArI'
9 /
NAME
HARI
Hari
HaRi
SQL> SY.
