Query on integrating windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV

hi
I have sucessfully integrated windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV. I have query in it regarding the possible validation against the portal Database user. Can we configure such that the user comparison happens for LDAP as well as database user. Have anyone configured such a scenario?
Regards,
Ganesh N

Hi Ganesh,
this should work in principle.
However you would need a user in Active Directory for each user in the portal database that should connect to the file server if you are using the SSO22KerbMap Module as I assume.
In my whitepaper I have mentioned this for the internal user index_service that does only exist in the portal database.
Best regards,
André

Problem while integrating windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV

Hi
I am trying to integrate windows file server into SAP KM using WEBDAV . I have downloaded the kerberos ini filter and included in the windows system. I am only trying to bring the files in the same system into KM but with no luck. When i check the log file in the kerberos folder i am getting
12:02:22 10828/10476 E OnPreprocHeaders: Found 0 UserPrincipalNames for ADSI Filter (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user) (userPrincipalName=xxxx)).
In the log i am getting the following
ERROR! Delegation Flag:Use any authentication protocol: NOT ACTIVE

 Right-click 'IDBSRV8' and choose 'Properties'.

 Select 'Use any authentication protocol' and choose 'Add'.
 Select 'Users or Computers' and enter IDBSRV8 as object name.
 Add the ServicePrincipalName HOST/idbsrv8.idbhq.org.
Can anybody please help me in this regard???

Hi Ganesh,
this error message tells you that there is no user in your active directory that has the userPrincipalName xxxx.
The SSO22KerbMapModule works as follows.
1. It receives a SAP Logon Ticket from the WebDAV request.
2. If valid the SAP username is extracted. In your case the SAP username is xxxx.
3. It then searches for a user in AD. It does so using the attribute in the ini-file that has been specified to contain the SAP username. In your case the SAP username should be identical with the userPrincipalName.
So you have to make sure that the portal user id (j_user) is mapped to the same AD user attribute that is specified in the ini-file .

Migrate documents from the windows file server into km

Hi All,
I have around 100 GB of documents in a file server and i want to migrate the same data in to KM.
I am sure that there should be some standard process to do this,can any one please help me out in solving this.
Thanks
Ajay

Hi Ajay,
what do you mean by migrate? You could use a Windows Filessystem KM-Repository to integrated these files directly into KM (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/e3/92322ab24e11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm)
Otherwise you could use WebDAV (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/4a/217fb6c33c6748a1715a161ac942cd/frameset.htm, http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/9600e5391e25dee10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm) or the Portal Drive (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/42/c99b91341a6bade10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm) to copy these files in a (for example) DB repository.

Portal on Unix cannot mount Windows File server

Hi Experts,
We had installed a NW 7.0 portal onto HP-UNIX server and integrated it with MS AD server. Now, we are facing an issue that we cannot mount windows files server when we tried to configured it with TREX. Had anyone tried this function or it is the limitation? Is the following statement still correct or do we have workaround solutions?
"If you are using the Microsoft Active Directory Service, you can only integrate documents into a Windows portal. The combination of Microsoft Active Directory Service and a UNIX portal is not supported."
Best Regards

Hi Tom,
have a look at this link:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/ed/b334ea02a2704388d1d2fc3e4298ad/frameset.htm]
Your issue should work, but the prerequisite is for using the windows permissions:
"If you are using Microsoft Active Directory Service, you have to operate the Windows domain in mixed mode". If it is running in Native mode you cannot use the windows permissions. Nevertheless integrating documents into KM should work. The KM uses its own permissions instead.
Best regards,
Denis

Windows 2008 Server R2 & SAP Business One

Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with SAP Business One and Terminal Service on Windows 2008 Server R2? We are finding a number of issues with this configuration and we are looking for any feedback that is out there.
Here is the situation - our customer is running SAP Business One v2007 SP01 PL09 Hotfix4 on a Windows 2008 Server R2 machine. All users (15 max) access SBO via Terminal Service to this machine, which also holds the databases (SQL Server 2005). The machine currently has 20GB of RAM.
What we are finding is:
1) When any process related to SBO (SBO core or add-ons) consumes some portion of memory, none of that memory is ever released back to the O/S until SBO is completely closed. So over the course of a day each user ends up simply consuming more and more memory as forms are opened for transactions. While we do see this in Windows 2003 Server to some extent, at least some memory is released when a given form is closed.
2) Once the system hits a point where around 75% of RAM is consumed the users start seeing application "hangs" and are forced to manually terminate SBO (via Task Manager) and restart. There doesn't seem to be any paging or use of virtual memory (if my terms are right) in use.
3) If the system is busy and a new window/form is opened the new window immediately (within one or two seconds) presents the "Not Responding" message on the new window. Depending on the circumstances the application is simply waiting for resources and will continue opening normally.
I would appreciate feedback from anyone who has experience with Windows 2008 Server R2; and especially using it for Terminal Services. My personal feeling is that it is a platform that should be avoided but we would certainly like to hear what other folks have to say.
Regards,
Ross Unger

I believe the supporting of this OS is still on Planned basis. You may check with SAP support to give them a good user case to fight with any non-compatible issues.

Hi James,
How can I check the KM ACLs/Security Zones?
I had a look on "System Administration - System Configuration - Knowledge Management - Content Management - Repository Managers - Security Manager - WebDAV ACL Security Manager".
There was just "WDAclSecurityManager" and the Permission Rendering Class was "com.sapportals.wcm.control.acl.ResourcePermissionControl".
Or where do I have to look for the ACL?

How to save query result on the file server as excel file?

Can I store referenced master files on a shared folder on a windows file server?

I have a windows file server where I have setup shared folders that my Macbook can access. Is it a supported configuration to keep my referenced master files on the windows share?

I hardly ever use the Bridge. I mostly use the Bridges to work one groups of new image RAW to edit metadata and create ACR settings. I don't use bridge features like collections or use the bridge to organize my image and I also don't use Lightroom. I mostly use Photoshop and Window's File explorer with my Image files. I have installed FastPictureViewer Codeg package to get thumbnails for RAW and PSD files in a Window's dialog. I don't like the delays introduced in workflows that are cause by the overhead requires for Bridge Cashes and Lighroom Databases.
However for you with 50 users sharing assets on network drives I would think you would need a library system above and beyond Bridge and Lightroom. A library system that provides access and version processes so users don't step on each others work.
If you want to use the bridge I do not believe it would be possible to use a shared cashed where multiple instances of the Bridge could concurrently maintain a common cache. I do not believe either Bridge or Lighroom design would have the locking protocols required for shared concurrent use.

When I access a windows files server with the mac I am adding .apple (hidden files). How can I prevent this.

When I access a windows files server with the mac I am adding .apple (hidden files). How can I prevent this?

Look for a program called BlueHarvest. I'm not sure if it still works with Mountain Lion.
I believe your file server can be set up to handle the metadata files, but I suppose that would depend on the Server software and your IT staff.
