Permissions for access

Good Afternoon...
Im the network admin at my school and im responsible for around 400 macbooks and over 1000 end users... one problem i currently have is privacy with ARD.
I have set up all the configuration for user access in regards to remote control and viewing and its stricktly administrators only but we need a way for the ARD client on the computers to prompt for permission first. Its ok with our student computers because its part of the agreement however staff are worried which i dont disagree with.
I have tested and rebuild the clients over and over but cant find a way for it to prompt first.
Any ideas??

Hi - Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I've also had trouble with this, the only way I've been lucky is to remove the credentials from the ARD administrator console, then when you attempt to remote control a computer, it will prompt the user (at the client) if it is OK that XXX (admin name) remote controls their computer.

  • [SOLVED] Problems in permissions for accessing files

    Hi everyone
    let's say I want to copy a folder to /etc/
    the problems is my user can't copy files anywhere other then it's home it doesn't even have access to any file or folder other then home.
    on the other hand I can use root to view and copy or access but the files that root creates or copies are only for root , I mean other groups or users can't access them .
    I tried changing permissions on files ( chmod , chown) but sometimes it takes a lot of time .
    can you tell me how I can give my own user those permissions ?(permission of copying file to a folder like /etc/ or creating a file in there )
    is there a way to change root's default setting so when i create something with root that file or folder be accessible for others automatically ?!
    sorry if my questions are dumb

    You can indeed do that. I have no intention of telling you how.
    What you are trying to do is dangerous and, frankly, idiotic. I am sure that you are no idiot but your strategy is idiotic. (Smart people often do dumb things.)
    If you insist on doing this, you can do it. But you should learn about the security system you are disregarding so that you know the risks. If you do that, you will know how to run those risks if you wish.
    What packages are you downloading? Do you mean pacman's cache? Why do you want your user to have write access there?
    Note that apart from the general idiocy of this strategy, it will also prevent some programmes from working at all because some of them check for sane permissions and refuse to run if they find the permissions are insane.
    I don't even understand why you want to change root's settings. If you are working as root anyway, why do you also want your user to have access?
    You can keep themes etc. in your home directory in appropriate places. Then you have complete control of them. You should not be adding additional themes to the system's collection except by installing packages with pacman.
    Please learn about the way that the file structure, permissions and access controls are supposed to work and the protection that they offer you. (From yourself as well as other people.)

    Please help me to solve this issue. I don't know if uploading the excel workbook is enough or maybe It needed to connect to another data source.
    I Appreciate in advance.

    Hi Ali.y,
    Based on the current error message, the error can be related to the
    Claims to Windows Token Service (C2WTS) and is an expected error under certain conditions. To verify the issue, please check the aspects below:
         1. The C2WTS Windows service and C2WTS SharePoint service are both running.
         2. Check the SQL Server Browser service is running on the machine that has the PowerPivot instance of SSAS.
         3. Check the domain. You're signing into SharePoint with a user account in some domain (call it Domain A).  When Domain A is equal to Domain B which SharePoint server itself is located (they're the same domain), or Domain
    A trusts Domain B.
    In addition, the error may be caused by Kerberos authentication issue due to missing SPN. In order to make the Kerberos authentication work, you need to configure the Analysis Services to run under a domain account, and register the SPNs for the Analysis
    Services server.
    To create the SPN for the Analysis Services server that is running under a domain account, run the following commands at a command prompt:
    • Setspn.exe -S MSOLAPSvc.3/Fully_Qualified_domainName OLAP_Service_Startup_Account
    Note: Fully_Qualified_domainName is a placeholder for the FQDN.
    • Setspn.exe -S MSOLAPSvc.3/serverHostName OLAP_Service_Startup_Account
    For more information, please see:
    How to configure SQL Reporting Services 2012 in SharePoint Server 2010 / 2013 for Kerberos authentication

  • Read-only access permissions for new files/folders?

    System:
    Clean Install on new intel Xserve
    10.4.8 Server w/ Open Directory
    Windows clients can read/write completely fine...
    Clients connecting using AFP (whether Standard or Kerberos authentication) can access files, but when new files/folders are created on the server, they register as full permissions for the user who created them, but not for the rest of the group.
    The share(s) in question are set using POSIX from WGM: Full access for owner/group/everyone (changed it to this thinking it would help, but it does not). Of course, no one can make changes to a newly-created/deposited files/folders, which is just plain silly.
    I can chmod the permissions recursively from a script (which fixes the problem, of course) on a regular basis so that its not (as much of) an issue, but there is still a 5-minute lag for the script to kick in, since we don't want to bombard the server with chmod requests every minute....which is unnecessary in the first place!
    I have plenty of other setups which are identical but have no such issue...
    Any reason why POSIX permissions on the share are being ignored from every user account?
    Thanks,
    k

    "That's default posix behaviour no matter what access permissions you set on the sharepoint."
    I'm afraid this is dead wrong. What matters most is how you set permissions on the share, not if you've chosen to inherit vs. using POSIX. POSIX is still used in inherit functions, though you can use ACL's to override them. In this case, ACL's are not being used on those shares (though we tried it).
    After all, why would Apple (let alone anyone else) even offer the ability to change POSIX permissions on a share if it didn't have any effect? That would be somewhat contradictory in nature.
    Like I said before, I have several other installations which are identically setup that have no such issues.
    As for Windows, it is also not set to inherit permissions; we're setting those explicitly. And they work fine.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks,
    k

  • Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

    I have been using iPhoto for years.  Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message.  I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto.  Quit is the only option.  What has happened?  I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine.  I have about 28,000 photos.
    I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software.  I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5).  What should I do?

    Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • [New_Feature_Requirement] [iOS 8] Detecting permissions for camera access

    Here is the feature request: Feature#3837401 - [New_Feature_Requirement] [iOS 8] Detecting permissions for camera access
    Problem: The camera privacy control is now required by iOS 8 for all regions. With iOS 8 any application that use camera encountered with a dialog asking for permission.
    http://useyourloaf.com/blog/2014/07/16/ios-8-camera-privacy-settings.html
    But we cannot detect permission for camera access by AIR.
    StatusEvent event not firing by AIR: "Note: This event is not dispatched on the AIR platform. It is used only in Flash Player."
    Camera - Adobe ActionScript® 3 (AS3 ) API Reference
    So, if user don't allow use camera our application even cannot detect that. It could make application useless. Also it could cause problems with our applications in AppStore.
    Please consider to provide some way to handle camera access. It could be StatusEvent like with Flash Player.

  • Permissions for Linux user accessing Leopard share

    We have a very simple networking setup at our video post production facility. Basically, files are shared everywhere and to everyone. No open directory or DNS serving. Just AFP and SMB.
    Our Linux based Smoke/Flame/Lustre system needs access to the files severed/shared by an Xserve with a big attached RAID. It has no problem connecting or seeing the files. However, it typically is denied write permissions. When the Smoke operator creates a folder on the share he can't access the folder until I grant the Others/Everyone group read and write perms. The Linux user logs in with the same user account that everyone else uses.
    Some time ago, the always smashing Gerrit DeWitt gave me some terminal commands to set ACLs for users/groups of this shared RAID. They work beautifully and I have had no permissions issues since applying them. Except for this Linux system.
    Would it be good practice to use this command to set the Everyone group permissions for this share?
    sudo chmod -R +ai "group:everyone allow readattr,readextattr,readsecurity,\
    list,search,read,execute,writeattr,writeextattr,delete,\
    append,write,deletechild,add_file,addsubdirectory,\
    fileinherit,directoryinherit" "/Volumes/RAIDH/Smoke_InfernoStorage"
    Also, is there some configuration change I could make to the Linux system to make it a little more Mac compatible in this area?
    Thanks

    It's worth checking into - let us know what you find. What you describe certainly sounds like a problem with permission propagation settings for SMB / Samba since the AFP side works fine.
    I've seen other posts about problems that crop up because of differences in the versions of Samba employed between systems, so that's a possibility as well. And I'd have no suggestions for you in that regard other than some searching of the web for clues as to how to work with that issue.

  • You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.

    I have dropdown on infopath form , and it receives data from sql server table ,  it works fine when i am running in preview mode , but when i am publishing form to sharepoint server and loading that form
    i am getting this
    You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.
    Can you please help?
    Thanks,

    try this one, if not yet
    Convert the data connection to UDC (store it in a Data Connection Library within the same site collection as the form library).  See if this works without any other changes, but if not, then...
    Manually edit your UDC file in Notepad (or your preferred editor) so that the authentication line is not commented out and so that it references the name of the SSO target app you created. 
    For Type, use NTLM.
    Ensure the user has rights to access the database
    Also ensure the connection file has been approved - A sharepoint admin can access a non approved Ucdx file. Go to the connection library and approve the file

  • Unbootable after Permissions for "Everyone" = "No access"

    I may have done something bad. I happened to look at permissions for my main (internal) drive for my iMac, "Macintosh HD." It said that access for "Everyone" was "Read only." I thought to myself, "I don't want everyone able to read everything on my disk." I also vaguely remembered (possibly incorrectly) that I might have changed that myself in the past. So I thought I would try it set at "No access." The first bad symptom was that my laser printer stayed in a state of being paused, regardless of hitting the "Resume printer" button repeatedly. So I thought something was hung up only with printing, and I tried to reboot the computer. Unfortunately, it would not boot back up, getting hung up at the gray screen with Apple logo and “spinning Stonehenge”! It did boot up with the Mac OS X Install DVD, which saw “Macintosh HD,” so I used Disk Utility to repair the drive, which Disk Utility said was OK, and it repaired some corrections (nothing conspicuously about “Macintosh HD” as a drive). Rebooting to “Macintosh HD” still did not work! (For some reason, it would not boot into the recent version of Drive Genius DVD.) It booted into TechTool Pro 6.0.3’s DVD, which made some favorable changes to the volume structure, and it corrected some permissions. Afterward, the iMac still would not boot into “Macintosh HD.” My latest Time Machine backup is a little bit old (a week or two), and I do have newer backups of certain files on an external drive, so I could restore it via Time Machine if necessary. But I suppose I would rather undo what caused this inaccessibility, tentatively my change of the permissions because all of this happened immediately after that change, and have everything as it was yesterday. Any advice and lessons would be appreciated.

    Thanks for your quick reply. I'm not with my iMac now but will try it tonight. Regarding your solution A1: does Command-S work as Terminal, or is Terminal needed at all? Does it matter if the screen at which it is stalled is not blue (which might be the background before Users' accounts appear?)? It is a gray screen with Apple logo. I have also found the following post which gives a different solution:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/15469394#15469394 That user described the stall as similar to mine: "the gray screen of death with the perpetual wheel." That solution apparently requires use of Terminal. Can I access that via the Mac OS X Install DVD?

  • Access Permissions for instances of a subform

    Is there any way to set access permissions for an instance of a subform rather than the subform as a whole? Especially for a template that has a certain number of instances saved, where only instances which have been previously saved should be access="nonInteractive" but new instances should be editable.

    Like PeeJay says, a custom window controller seems the way to go. Try creating a subclass of NSWindowController, with header something like this:
    #import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>
    @interface MyWindowController : NSWindowController
    IBOutlet NSTextField *infoField;
    -(void)setInfoText:(NSString *)str;
    @end
    The implementation of the setInfoText would be something like:
    -(void)setInfoText:(NSString *)str{
    [infoField setStringValue:str];
    Create a nib file with your window in interface builder. Drop the header file for your custom window controller into the interface builder window. Set the custom class of the nib's File's Owner to MyWindowController. You can then hook up the window and infoField outlets from File's Owner to your window.
    In the body of your code where you open a new info window, add something like:
    MyWindowController *windowController=[[MyWindowController alloc] initWithWindowNibName:@"nameOfWindowNibFile"];
    [windowController setInfoText:@"Whatever"];
    [windowController showWindow:self];
    If you are going to have an undetermined amount of these custom window, it might be a good idea to store the window controller instances in a mutable array, rather than retaining instance variables for each one.

  • Unique permissions for Toplevel teamsite and NewForm.aspx?

    Perhapse I dont know how to seach for this but I cant manage to find anything in the forums here that addreses this specifically.  If I am in error concerning that PLEASE point me in the right direction, otherwise this is my issue:
    I have created a form based on a list I have created for capturing "engagements" (new task requests for a team within my department).  The goal of this form is to help us make record of (and track) tasks from other departments we get
    in hallway conversations, emails or IM clients.  A way for us to say "yeah sure we can help you with that...but please go here and file a request so I have something to log my time aginst."  We call that request an "Engagement"
    so my list is an "Engagement Request" list and it lives on our Sharepoint 2010 Team site.  *Yes I am aware there are a plethora of ticketing systems out there that might be able to better facilitate this but that isnt an option for us and I
    am the poor sod tasked with making it happen  using Sharepoint.
    What I am trying to do is set the permissions for the NewForm.aspx associated with this list so that anyone with a AD account can access it to create a new item (an "engagement request") but lock down access to the rest of the site..including
    the list (because one person who is engageing us for a password rest has no business seeing the record/status of our other engagments.  At this point I have figured out how to route the users (who have previously requested and been granted access
    to the site) from the Enagement form BACK to the the main menu so they dont automatically see the list.  Basically I added an image top the Top level team site that says "Engagment", linked it directly to the NewForm.aspx URL and
    appended it with the "?source=https//" bit at the end which will re-direct the user back to the Toplevel site on save/submit rather than the Allitems display of the list they just added a new item (Engagment) to. 
    Ok now that I have explained all that...and I apologize for the overly verbose nature of this post but what I need to do is set it so that anyone with a valid AD account can access the top level site of the teamsite...and Add a new item to the engament list...
    but that is all, nothing else.  I cant allow them to go into the other lists and libraries on the teamsite.  My research indicates that I can set unique permissions on things all the way down to files but I cant seem to wrap my mind around how to
    grant automatic access to the toplevel site (and the NewForm.aspx) but NOT everything else.
    I have been assigned as one of the owners of said site so I should have the required permissions to do this. Im just not sure HOW to do this.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    ~Confused SharePoint Teamsite owner

    Daniel,
    Thank YOU for taking the time to reply!
    Unfortunately I do not have the Enterprise version of SharePoint 2010 (and therefore no access to InfoPath form services) so I was forced to configure the permissions for the list using the browser interface.  As you suggested I configured the permissions
    for the top-level site  in the collection as such so that anyone within the ADS\Domain users group was part of a custom "Name of My Department Visitors" group (separate from the default SharePoint "Visitors" group). 
    I then managed the permissions on that group to have "Contribute" access.  After this I made EVERYTHING under The Main Page unique secured.
    I then went into the actual list that tracks the "engagements" and went to the List settings (via the ribbon) / Advanced Settings (under the General Settings heading) and set the "Create and Edit access:" option to "Create items
    and edit items that were created by the user".
    Using this setup I was able to log into the site using my test user account (which is part of the ADS\Domain users group) then access the "Engagement" New Item list and create an entry.  From here my re-direct dumped me back to the main page. 
    When I browse manually to that engagements listing I can now see (and Edit) the item I created (using my test user account) but NONE of the other items in the list.

  • How do I change permissions to access a shared file?

    My computer has 2 accounts, mine and my wife. She has a folder with photos. When logged in as my wife, I duplicated that folder and moved the copy to the User>Shared folder. When I log in as myself and access the Shared folder I see the copied folder with the photos but I can't open the photos. Get Info shows that I don't have any permissions. How do I change that? Thanks for any help.
    Owen

    Sometimes, if you highlight an item and use Get Info (or keyboard
    command to generate same item) you can see what user permissions
    on a file are; and as the author or superuser of a computer, you may
    be able to unlock them or give them a different level of general access.
    Since I don't save my images to a specific user account (though my
    own computers have two accounts each) these do not have the same
    permission issues when used between the accounts; and they are
    saved to a file on the hard disk drive accessible to both users directly.
    {This is what the Shared folder is supposed to do; but I don't use iPhoto
    and so this never comes up as a problem in sharing images or exporting.}
    If a user or Admin creates a folder for images, and saves them to the
    hard disk drive location, the other user can see and use them; but
    when there are different user permissions involved, the files have to
    be changed so other users can open them. There should be a way
    to make the change on more than one item at a time.
    Here is a link to another Apple Discussions thread with some information
    which may be of use to you to more streamline the shared folder issue:
    Read/Write Permissions for all users...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7944908
    Hopefully this helps; if not, consider each person contributing to folders
    in a generic folder on the hard disk drive you create yourself; so it will
    not be in a Users folder in the first place. You can connect to these by
    putting an alias folder on each of the user's desktops or in their Dock.
    {You could also work around the issue by making more work for yourself,
    in that you can Archive images (save as .zip) images in a folder and
    under one user, those tend to not be user-protected from sharing.}

  • No longer have permissions to access Time Machine.

    I can no longer access or write to my time machine. i am not sure when this happened, because the previous recent occasions i've had to access it, i've done through my MPB, which, if you will read here (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16071164#16071164) i have managed to possibly seriously bork.
    i do know that i have been successfully backing up to the machine up until at most 2 days ago and possibly just yesterday when the above disaster occurred.
    now i cannot access any part of it.
    i cannot find the "invisible" file that controls its permissions, though to be fair i'm not entirely sure where it lives. BUT, i do have hidden files showing, so that's potentially helpful if i can find the .001xxxxxxx-whatever file.
    i cannot change the permissions on the desktop icon. they now sit with only everyone:read only and no others.
    i cannot add a new user to the permissions; it says the name is invalid. probably because the whole thing is just read only.
    after my as-yet-unresolved MPB nightmare, this has very nearly put me over the edge. please help.
    running: 10.6.8

    Can you tell if it's Time Machine that's showing that error message?  I took a look at item C5 in Time Machine Troubleshooting.  It specifically refers to Leopard (OS X 10.5), which is another confirmation that the old advice you found about that hidden file no longer applies.
    yep. it's time machine. when it tries to back up and fails, a message displays about it being read-only and to go ahead and repair it or reformat it. if i go to time machine prefs and select that drive to use for backup, that's when the other message about "necessary read, write and append privileges" displays.
    So you mean the Desktop icons for the mounted Time Capsule disk, etc.  The icon for the volume containing the "sparsebundle" files should have an AirPort fan, not a network volume icon with the three people.  Item B4 of Time Machine Troubleshooting mentions that, although I'm not sure the advice given there would be useful in your case.
    yep. i know, but that's what's there, nonetheless.
    If you launch AirPort Utility, put the Time Machine into "manual setup" mode, select the Disks panel, then the File Sharing tab, is "Enable file sharing" checked?  What is the setting for "Secure Shared Disks"?
    i checked and tinkered with this part already, too. it has always been set to enable. it originally had with "time capsule password", then i tried also with "disk password". now it's back to TC password. again, everything was fine a few days ago, and i haven't touched any airport or TM settings in probably a year or more.
    small update: i was able to get into the capsule's backups finally after a few more passes using disk repair, so i can see that it was happily backing up until the 1st, when i had the aforementioned problem with my laptop. i can't see this being mere coincidence, so i know i must've also damaged the permissions for the TM/TC at the same time.
