Password Managerment and Replication

Hi All,
I came across this problem of Replication and Password Policy. I have a Multi master with 3 dedicated consumers set up with replication. Account lock out policy is set up to lock the account in 3 attempts. Once the account is locked out, I reset it in the master (clear the account unlocktime, reset the failure counter and reset the retrucountresettime. But this is not getting replicated to the consumer, I read in the Admin's Manual certain attributes like account lockout counters are not replicated !!! If so since it's a dedicated consumer, how the values can be reset , to allow the user to logon ? Your help is very much appreciated,
Solaris, iDS5.1 SP1
Thanks

Some clever programmer at Sun will have to figure out how to integrate the chaining database, entry distribution, and replication to chain bind requests to the master.

  • How can I figure out what my password is and keep it unlocked?  Every time I do a system update, it requires the password and sends me into cyber trouble with the remember my keychain access, requiring it every time I log in.  A real hassle to be avoided

    How can I find out what my password on the computer is?  I had to change it due to my teenagers helping themselves, and now every time there is a system update, I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find.  It then wants it every time I log in and pops up Key Chain Access as well.  Very annoying.  I do not have the disc to reload it and fear I would loose everything on my computer as there is also trouble with the back up system.  Too many issues and not enough solutions.  Many thanks in advance!

    I do not have the disc to reload
    Why not?  You need your system dvds to troubleshoot & to reset/change passwords in view of your current OS listed in your  profile. 
    You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
    If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource:  International Support Phone #s.
    ===============
    I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find.
    When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out. 
    Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place.  A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
    New school---> Get a password manager utility.  Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware.  Do a Google search for free password managers.

  • ACI's to prevent password expiration and history for Proxyagent + Repl mgr

    Greetings,
    I have recently (and predictably) had the passwords for my replication manager and my proxyagent expire. I was able to change them, which is great, but at this time I'm really faced with the prospect of them expiring again at some future date.
    It's my understanding that we can create ACI's that will make certain users (targets, I guess) immune to the global password policy. I've not yet set up any ACI's, and this one is important enough that I want to seek guidance.
    If anyone has done this, or has advice, I'd be very appreciative. I don't mind reading to try and figure it out too, but I hate reinventing the wheel :P
    Thanks in advance,
    Patrick

    Patrick,
    I would just create the new password policy beneath cn=config. This will allow you to apply it to accounts beneath any suffixes you may have on your server.
    Here's an example ldif:
    dn: cn=service password policy,cn=config
    changetype: add
    objectClass: top
    objectClass: passwordPolicy
    cn: service password policy
    description: A password policy intended for proxy or service accounts.
    passwordMustChange: off
    passwordChange: off
    passwordMinAge: 0
    passwordInHistory: 0
    passwordExp: off
    passwordMaxAge: 2142720000
    passwordWarning: 0
    passwordExpireWithoutWarning: off
    passwordCheckSyntax: off
    passwordMinLength: 6
    passwordRootdnMayBypassModsChecks: off
    passwordStorageScheme: ssha
    passwordLockout: off
    passwordMaxFailure: 32700
    passwordUnlock: on
    The key attribute here is "passwordExp: off"
    After this is defined, you can update the password policy of the accounts that need it with some LDIF like this:
    dn: cn=replication manager,cn=replication,cn=config
    changetype: modify
    replace: passwordPolicySubentry
    passwordPolicySubentry: cn=service password policy,cn=config
    Good luck,

  • Password manager and biometric authentication

    My local pharmacy uses a fingerprint scanner (via USB, I think) as a part of their authentication.  So, I'm guessing they're probably okay.  I think just about any two-factor authentication is better than none, though.
    I'm not a HIPPA compliance consultant, though, and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, so take it for what it's worth.

    Hi James,
    I can't speak for other password managers, but Keeper is a zero-knowledge security provider and HIPAA compliant (we offer biometric authentication as an option).  You can get more IT compliance info on our Business Features page.

  • When I am trying to update or download an app, another Apple ID appears in the Apple ID box, and I can't change it.  The cursor is in the password box and I'm unable to move it back into the Apple ID box in order to change it.

    How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?

    You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.

  • When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the icon which I then log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After a minute it turns into a prohibited icon. If I log on the guest icon I get to Safari. Help!

    When I turn on my iMac it comes up with the login icons which I then choose and log into. The password works and I then get the apple icon and the spinning wheel. After about a minute the Apple icon turns into a prohibited icon. However, if I log in under the guest icon, I can access the wifi and get to Safari. I really don't know what to do next. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

    Are you running any A-V? If it's an iMac 21.5, I don't think you're running Leopard, 10.5. Probably at least Snow Leopard, 10.6. This is the Leopard forum.
    This article says meant for 10.3.9 and eariler, but contains some still useful suggestions.

    Try a Safe Boot. Shift at the startup chime and expect a much longer time to boot. This will bring you to a login screen with "Safe Boot" in red.
    Look at this as well.

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

  • ITunes 11.0.3 asks for password again and again, have re-done my credit card details, have changed my Apple ID password, tried to log in and out of iTunes, none of thos seem to work, just keeps happening without end, please help

    I have tried to re-install iTunes 11.0.3 at least 6 times.
    I have also downloaded iTunes 11.0.3 at least 5 times.
    I have changed my Apple ID password.
    I have downloaded (again, I've done that many times) iTunes 11.0.3, then I switched off the iMac, then restarted the wi-fi modem.  Switched on the iMac, loaded iTunes, same problem.
    I tried to just switch off the wi-fi, did the same as point above, same problem.
    Even tried to change the system date to 2038, this only seemed (although I doubt it) to fix the "not responding" issue which I had this morning.
    The Apple ID password issue, where it asks me for the password loads and loads of times (probably 50 times or more), one after the other has been happening for about 3 days now.
    Here is a copy of my message problem:
    iTunes Problem, can't seem to find a solution online.
    I am running OS X 10.8.3 on an iMac, have just loaded iTunes 11.0.3 a few days ago.
    Firstly, I'd open iTunes and it would immediately say it was not responding, I'd have to force quit, try again, re-boot, try again etc.  I tried re-installing iTunes, changing password, everything to no avail, then changed my date to 2038, and voila it started responding (no, don't ask me, I just read in online and was desperate enough to try it).  Of course, I don't believe that this actually helped, I would like to know what did help or if there is something specific one needs to do to fix this.
    I have not been able to get rid of this problem:  Whenever I try to make a purchase it asks for my Apple ID password, dozens of times until I give up and press cancel, cancel, cancel.
    Why does it do this?  I don't want to purchase anything because I can't keep typing in my password again and again.  I'm not exaggerating.
    As I mentioned, I have tried to re-install iTunes, about 6 times, and I changed my password.  I still get the same problem.
    Also, my iTunes still looks like the classical iTunes and doesn't have the new interface.
    Has anyone experienced this and was able to fix it, or does anyone know what the problem is?  Please help, I'm at my wits end.

    Because too much time has passed I can't edit this into the prior comment, but here is the info regarding reverting to iTunes 11.0.2 (assuming you do have a time machine backup) from https://discussions.apple.com/message/22057703#22057703

    Repairing permissions doesn't fix it.
    I reverted to the previous version, 11.0.2.
    1. Quit the new crash-prone iTunes.
    2. Delete the app.
    3. Restore v. 11.0.2 with Time Machine.
    4. In your iTunes folder look for a folder called "Previous iTunes Libraries", find the latest one.
    5. In the iTunes folder itself you'll see "iTunes Library.itl", delete it (or compress it and save a copy for later just in case.
    6. Copy the newest .itl file in Previous iTunes Libraries to the iTunes folder and rename it "iTunes Library.itl".
    7. Launch the older version of iTunes.
    My crashing has seemed to have ceased with a revert to an older version. I noticed today that the newer crashing iTunes had been launched for hours but not playing anything, when I played internet radio it crashed within 5mins, fed up I reverted to an older version.
    Btw, a simpler way to do this is to revert to older iTunes app, then hold Option when it launches and choose an older library.

  • I am locked out of my account because my password includes "[" and my computer is set to spanish. In spanish that key doesn't work. How do I gejt back into my computer?

    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:
    If you forget the password and FileVault is on

  • Database Mirroring and Replication in SQL Server 2008 R2

    I have configured the mirroring and replication between 4 servers (A,B,C,D).i.e, Mirroring between A to B and C to D, Replication between A and C. The configuration was a success and I am able test the replication(B to C) when I have failed over the mirroring
    dbs(A to B). The replication works fine after the mirroring fail over but I am not able to check its status in the Replication monitor. When I am having any insert in a table which is replicated in B, it is reflected back to C..it means the replication is
    working fine.
    Any thought on how I can view the status of replication from mirrored server. I tried adding the publisher in the monitor, but no luck. If I check the snapshot agent status, it says could not retrieve the info, same with the log reader agent status.
    Any suggestions on this please.
    Thanks, Siri

    For example in your case...
    Server A is principal and Server B is Mirror with either Manual or Automatic Failover.
    Server A is replicated to Server B ( publisher & B is subscriber )
    In Server A Database named Test_Mirror_Replication is configured for both mirroring and Replication.
    Now you have failed over your Database 'Test_Mirror_Replication' from Server A to Server B.
    After the Failover Server A will act as Mirror for DB 'Test_Mirror_Replication' & Server B will act as Principal for DB 'Test_Mirror_Replication'
    Hope my understanding is correct ?
    If yes then have you tried monitoring the replication after registering in other instance with current principal database sql instance name ? I mean current Publisher database name sql instance ? not your old sql instance name which was before the mirroring
    role change or failover...
    Hope you are trying with mirror database server name ?

    I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate.  iPad 2, iOS 8.3

    This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum. 
    Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled?  It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.

  • Somebody has created an apple id using my gmail id. So I gave forgot password option and reset the password of the id. But for resetting the security questions, link is going to some other email id which is created by the other guy.How can I resolve this?

    When I tried to create and apple id using my gmail account i found that somebody has already created an apple id using my gmail id. So I gave forgot password option and reset the password of the id. But for resetting the security questions, link is going to some other email id which is created by the other guy. Now the problem is that the other guy also can reset my password and access my account.
    I contacted apple customer care and they are not ready to help me saying that I need to give information about the last device I logged in using this id. How can I give it when I did not create it?:) Also they are saying this account has been verified and that could happen only if someone has hacked my gmail account and verified the id using the link sent by apple.
    Later I did some experiments and found that this is a security flaw from apple. Somebody has created the id and never used it(I tried to loggin to icloud and it was saying this account was not used it any apple device). The account became verified when I reset the password.(This is a bug, account should be verified only when we click on the verification link sent by apple).
    The other mistake apple did is that they allotted my gmail account to someone before it's verified eventhough it cannot be used unless verified. Actually apple should allot the account id only after verifying the email address.
    Apple customer care is not ready to help and I am tired of fighting with them. Can any of you guys suggest any means of getting back my gmail id to use it as apple id?

    I don't think you're going to be able to. I would guess the other person used your address by accident, and when he found he couldn't access the account (because you'd changed the password) he abandoned it. Your GMail address is now locked to that account and even if it was changed you can't use it to create another.
    You already have an Apple ID, which you use to log in here; you can use that to create an iCloud account if that's what you are trying to do. If you want to create a different Apple ID just get another free address such as a Yahoo one.
