Preventing access to web without permission

Is there some way to set up Firefox so that you cannot browse unless you have permission (password, etc.)? My daughter, who has Down Syndrome, knows how to browse for her games, but I don't want her using them without my permission. I'm trying to help her manage her time better, but she sneaks into the computer and is already happily playing her games before I know it! Is there something you can suggest?

Excel VBA to access sharepoint list without permission

Hi,
I do find solution to retrieve the SharePoint list from excel VBA but my problem now is on the SharePoint permission to the list.
I am developing this solution in excel because i don't want the particular user to access the list direct from the portal because the list contains some unique and confidential data. So what i did was created a new view in the portal with selected column
and i connect to the view from excel. So every time the user want to retrieve the data, he can run macro to refresh the data in the excel.
When i run the macro it can generate the list because i do have permission but if i run the same macro on the person machine, excel request for username and password because he don't have the permission to the list.
Are there any work around to allow the user to generate the data in excel without permission to the SharePoint list.
Thanks for the help.

I've done this before using SQL Server Reporting Services integrated into SharePoint.
Using SSRS, create the report you want the end user to view. Then create a Report Subscription, emailing the end user (or putting it in a file share/Doc Lib) the report. If they want to run it interactively, you can enable caching on the report, which would
pull the report from the last time it was scheduled to run (the data would not be 'real time' in this case).

Prevent user without permission access WCP Adminstration Console

Hi all,
I created a normal user A but not grand any permission for this user. I login WCP Adminstration Console with user A and the result I still access in to WCP Adminstration Console. And I can see the Resource page and Services page.
And I found out big problem in here that with user A I can change the position of all page in the "Pages management" page. This action can take effect immediate and show it on Portal. In detail the position of link to the pages on the main menu of portal will be changed.
Do you known how to prevent a authenticate user, without administration permission access WCP Adminstration Console?
Would you have any Idea about it?
Thanks a lot!

Hi.
The first point that you have to do is prevent showing Administrator Console link to non administrator users:
rendered="#{WCSecurityContext.userInAppRole['Administrator']}"The second way to secure administrator page is editing jazn-data.xml
You will find in authenticated role next row:
<permission>
<class>oracle.adf.share.security.authorization.RegionPermission</class>
<name>oracle.webcenter.portalwebapp.pages.adminPageDef</name>
<actions>view</actions>
</permission>Be sure that you add the view permission to Administrator role if you remove this line.
Remove or modify the access to admin page for athenticated role.
Or you can edit the permissions of the users/roles in Design/Runtime disabling the page management for them.
Another Update:
Hierarchical Permission in jazn-data is setted to authenticated-role as can personalize.
Investigate a little with jazn-data default permissions :).
I hope this help you.
Regards.

Whenever I try to open Firefox it says cannot establish connection, maybe your firewall is preventing us from accessing the web.

Whenever I try to open Firefox it says cannot establish connection, maybe your firewall is preventing us from accessing the web. Even though I've let Firefox through my firewall, this message still appears. And whenever I try to redownload it, it just says installation failed. It does this with all installations... Is there something wrong with my computer? How do I fix it?

Sometimes you only disable the user interface of security software, but the firewall or anti-virus services are still running in the background.
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Web Service posting via SOAP.request - Security settings prevent access...

I'm trying to call a web service via the SOAP.request object in javascript embedded into my Interactive Form. I've successfully done this with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 trial version however now I'm having this issue on a production setup. The PDF generates fine and I can fill out the form and everything. I checked the properties of both PDF documents (one that works from the trial and one that doesn't from the prod box) and they are the same, expect the one that works is PDF Version 1.6, and the one that doesn't is PDF Version 1.7.
Here's the client-side error:
Acrobat EScript Built-in Functions Version 8.0
Acrobat Annotations / Collaboration Built-in Functions Version 8.0
Acrobat Annotations / Collaboration Built-in Wizard Functions Version 8.0
Acrobat Multimedia Version 8.0
Acrobat SOAP 8.0
NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
SOAP.request:31:XFA:data[0]:mainform[0]:btnRelease[0]:click
Here's the snippet of JavaScript code:
var response = SOAP.request();
Here are the security properties of the malfunctioning PDF:
Security Method: No Security

How do I determine what the culprit is?

Michael,
PDF Version 1.6 means Adobe Reader 7.0.x family and PDF version 1.7 means Adobe Reader 8.0.x or 9.0.x if I am not wrong.
Also if you check LiveCycle Designer Help (Using LiveCycle Designer ES > Working with Data Sources > About data sources > Working with data connections) it clearly says that with LiveCycle Designer 8.0 secured web services are not supported and there are additional security settings for Reader 8.0 onwards, that may be causing the issue.

How did the Amex App access my location without asking for permission first?

I just downloaded the Amex App and started using it, put in my info and logged in. Checked balances and things then logged out. After going to my settings I noticed Amex was turned on under Location Sevices and that it had accessed my location earlier. It did not ask me if I allow or not when I was logging in the App earlier. This is the first time that my location was accessed without permission from any app or safari. I realize once you allow the permission it doesn't ask again, but in my case I just downloaded the app and used it the first time. Is this how some apps may do it, without permission? I thought Apple was big on these kinds of things?

My apologies about the post but in the App there was a section where it did ask for permission. It's all good. Thanks

Does allowing adobe flash player plug in on safari give access to websites the ability to upload and transfer documents and files(on the computer) without permission?

Does allowing adobe flash player plug in on safari give access to websites the ability to upload and transfer documents and files(on the computer) without permission? Perhaps to their online server or somewhere where they designated them to transfer to?

It depends a bit on which version of Captivate you used to develop your modules and also which version of Flash Player you targeted when publishing your modules from Captivate. Say for example you use Captivate 5 and publish to Flash Player 10. Then your end user would need to have Flash Player 10 on their computer. It shouldn't matter if their version is 10.0.0 or 10.1.0 or 10.1.3 - just as long as it's a 10. If they only have Flash Player 9 then they will need to upgrade.
The "Access to Adobe.com is restricted" is most likely because the HTML that launches the Captivate SWF sees that you have targeted FP10 and the user only have FP9. Then it tries to direct a call to Adobe in order to present an "Upgrade to latest version of Flash" dialog for the user. This traffic is most likely denied by your IT department.
The first step is to find out which version of Flash Player is the most prevalent in your organization. If it is Flash Player 9 then simply select that when publishing from Captivate 5. If Flash Player 8 is the most used in your organization and you have CP5 or CP5.5 then you are in big trouble since FP8 is not supported from CP5 and CP5.5.

Can't access some web sites with version 4.0

I recently installed version 4.0 and am in test phase of the server.
With or without ACL's turned on, I can't access the following web site
https://www.sunnet.sunlife.com/member/signin/index.asp?
or
https://www.sunnet.sunlife.com/member/
In Internet Explorer, it sits on a blank page with the little world logo spinning around until it finally times out after a few minutes. I've tried accessing these sites with both IE6 and IE 5.5 and get the same problem.
As a footnote, the web access to these sites works fine with our current Web Proxy version 3.6.
Does anyone have any ideas why this isn't working through the new Proxy 4.0?
Thanks

I did some additional testing through Proxy 4. All web sites and web pages including secure sites that I tried accessing over the past couple of days all appear to work fine with the exception of the forementioned sites. Access to these specific web pages (which I cannot currently access) are part of our day-to-day business requirements, and therefore will prevent me from using Proxy version 4.0 as our production proxy unless I can figure out why these web pages won't load, and how to fix the problem.
As an experiment, I tried to access these web pages through Proxy 4 with Mozilla FireFox and Netscape 7. None of these web browsers (including Internet Explorer) will bring up these web pages when going through Proxy 4. But bypassing the proxy or going through our v3.6 proxy works fine for these web pages everytime, and with all browsers. This leads me to believe that this web page access problem is not a browser specific problem, but something in Proxy 4 isn't processing the request to display the page properly.
As a reference, the web site in question is http://www.sunlife.ca. On the left hand side of the page go to "Sign In" then "Plan Members". Thats where the request hangs through Proxy 4 no matter which browser I use, including Netscape... but works perfectly fine with Proxy v3.6.
Can someone who is running a version 4 Proxy also please try to access the SunLife Members login page and see if it works or fails for you?
Thanks

Preventing access to Mail

Hello,
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to prevent access to the Mail applications (under OS X (Tiger) version 10.4.10) without actually having to lock access to the computer itself or create specific accounts?

All help would be much appreciated,
Thank you,

Not able to access SOAP web service data control from adf mobile

Hi,
I am trying to call web services from adf mobile..
I have created data control from external web service and it is perfectlly working on web browser..
But why it is showing an error on emulator??
Is there any .jar file missing in adf mobile so that it is not supporting a web service?
Or is there any other problem? Emulator is connected to network and I am able to run WSDL in emulator's browser..
Please help me to solve this issue..
Thanks,
Laxmi

Emulator is connected to network and I am able to run WSDL in emulator's browser..
Connecting to WSDL in the browser is not the same as connecting to WSDL in an application.
To access a web service from an Android device enable a permission in AndroidManifest.xml that allows applications to open network sockets. Add the following uses-permission element.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>

Can I use my G5 on the web without antiviruses ?

Hi guys and girls,
Could you tell me if I can use my G5 on the web without antiviruses ?
If you are disagree, please tell me which antiviruses is the best for you ?
Thanks.
Philippe

Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forum!
Currently no internet virus protection is needed for Apple OSX. Using Safari or Firefox is the best way to access the internet.
In addition, make sure you download and install all Apple Security updates (from the Software updates tab). This will keep your MacOSX protection up to date. In addition, there are only three Anti-Virus software programs available from the Apple store, that alone will give you a clue to the need for them.

Access Denied Web Application with Claims authentication NTLM only when using secondary URL

I have a SharePoint 2010 server farm with 2 web front ends, an application server and a database server. Both front ends are internal to
our network and are not behind a load balancer.
NOTE THAT I HAD TO SUBSTITUTE hzzp with hzzp so that I had no links in the body of this post since I am not verified
I setup a new web application called "SharePoint 41171" with:
Public URL:
hzzp://testserver1:41171
Claims authentication
NTLM only: no forms auth
No SSL
New web site "SharePoint 41171"
New app pool
New content database
I create a top level site collection and name mydomain\myusername as the primary site collection admin
I am able to access this site as expected at
hzzp://testserver1:41171 with the aforementioned site collection owner id: mydomain\myusername
I add an alternate access mapping for a secondary URL for this web application in the Intranet zone:
hzzp://iwatest.mydomain.com
So my AAMs for the site read as:
hzzp://testserver1:41171
Default     hzzp://testserver1:41171
hzzp://iwatest.mydomain.com
Intranet     hzzp://iwatest.mydomain.com
When I attempt to log on to
hzzp://iwatest.mydomain.com with the same user name and password, I get "access denied".
I can access this site using
hzzp://iwatest.mydomain.com if I log in as the farm account. This is the only account that seems to work.
Side Note: If I create a separate web application without claims - just NTLM and create the same AAMs, I can login fine with the same secondary
URL and the same user name
IP address properly maps to this machine.

Basically it tells me that access is denied. I didnt see anything that stood out here.
I found this article:
hzzp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointadminprevious/thread/ded9188b-ee03-4ef0-bb50-3ad138110e0c, which pointed me in the direction of ensuring that the portal
super user and portal reader accounts were properly added to my web application. I followed the every popular article on doing this:
hzzp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758656.aspx, but still no luck. As per the thread, I added the 2 domain accounts to the user policy with appropriate privilege
and then set them as the super user and super reader accounts via powershell, and yes I did prefix those names with "i:0#.w|mydomain\". To be exta sure, I repeated this for all web applications on this server with slightly different powershell steps
depending on wether or not claims was enabled on the web application.
The Claims to Windows Token Service is running.
I saw some mention of ensuring that the secure token service is running with a proper application pool account, but we are not running that service
and I cant imagine what that would have to do with my situation.
I have deleted and readded the web application and repeated these steps to no better effect.
I gave the mydomain\myusername full control for the web application through the user policy, ensured that it was indeed the primary site collection
owner and added it to the default site owners group. None of this helped.
I changed the application pool account to the farm account. No change in behavior.
Rebooted IIS and the machines many times along the way.
Further, when I attempt to sign in as a different user after being denied, I get "an unexpected error has occured message. I found the following

Thanks spadminspadmin:
I have, though I am not sure that what I've added there is correct:
The URL that I am trying to use to access the web application's IIS site is hxxp://iwatest.mydomain.com. I added a binding to the IIS site as follows:
Type    Host name                      port        IP address
http     iwatest.mydomain.com     41171     *
Is that correct?

Problem with accessing a web service from outside world

Hello SAP experts
I have a custom BAPI for which I have created a webservice.
If I login as an admin to the BOX where I have installed this SAP server and open an internet explorer window and give the URL, I can access the web service without any problem. This is just a simple BAPI that searches for some data from a table based.
However, when I give the same URL from a different PC, it can open the web service and in the fields if I give the data and click on send button, it fails with an error '500 Internal Server Error '.
I looked for the details of this error on internet and it says that this is some general error and solutions that it suggested doesn't help my scenario.
Has anyone seen this problem before? Any help will be highly appreciated.
Tks
Ram

i have tried the stack trace in the catch but as i said on the statement where i made the object for the service the program just exits. it didn't return any exception or any output.
thanx for refering me any answer.......

I cannot access common web site like Paypal. I get an "Untrusted Connection" screen. I have accessed Paypal in the past. This also happens with Capital One.

Just in the past week, when I try to access many web sites, including PayPal and Capital One, I get a Untrusted Connection screen and it prevents me from entering these sites.

hello ra12rick, first please make sure that the date, time & timezone are set correctly on your system. if this doesn't solve the issue (or it is already set properly), a possible solution depends on different factors:
* what is the '''error code''' shown under ''technical details'' on the error page?
in case the error code equals ''sec_error_unknown_issuer'', please attempt to add an exception on the bottom of the error page & inspect the certificate (see the screenshot attached for instructions):
* which '''issuer information''' does the certificate contain?
thank you!
