Question about gaining enable access

I recently upgraded the code on one of our
6500 switches. Ever since the upgrade, I can log into the switch with no problem. However, when I go to enable mode, it prompts me once again for the username before the enable password. Not sure if anyone ever saw this. It would be nice to only have to enter my username once instead of again when I go to enable mode. Thx!

Question about downloading and accessing video in FC Express. HELP!

Very new to Final Cut Express.... Is it possible to download video (from a Canon Vixia HD30) via firewire to an external drive then access the video footage for FC Express from that drive? Or does the footage still need to move to the computers drive? Bottom line is if possible I want to keep my main drive as clear as possible. If this is all possible any recommendations on what drives would work best for this? Any assistance you can provide is appreciated. Thank You.

Thank You.. I guess my last question is this.. I have one firewire port.. If the external drive is attached to that I dont have a free firewire port to download the video onto that drive.. Unless I can download via USB..

Some questions about my database access bean

The following is a bean (minus imports) that access a database and populates several "articles" and then returns a set of them. pretty plain really.
The bean is modified from here to add exception cactching and 'fix' other problems along the way.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=727979 (thanks evnafets)
The results list is genericified(!) to avoif unchecked calls (casting) in this line result.add(article);

Im not too sure what a context does or what im doing with it here. My current understanding is that it allows concurrent access of the database.

        DataSource ds = (DataSource) envContext.lookup("jdbc/mySite");This section im having trouble with too.
As I see it:
I set what my sql query will be;
get a connection @ conn
now im not too sure what stmt is getting, is it getting ready to send the query.
stmt does not have an executeQuery() method, so im never actually sure when the sql query gets sent to the database. I have subbed with execute() but it does not take any arguments so the problem of not sending anything remains.
            String sql = "SELECT * FROM news, users WHERE news.user = users.username";

Nops, it has nothing to do with concurrent access. You use tomcat to set up a Connection Pool. This causes the tomcat server to create a pool of reusable connections on startup. The connection pool (or set of Connection objects) are given a name and the server binds the set of objects to this name in a 'registry'.
From the code, you use jndi to access the Connections from the pooled objects. While doing so, you have to provide the jndi name against which this object pool is bound to.
You'll be more clear when you read the fllowing resources.

stmt does not have an executeQuery() method, so im
never actually sure when the sql query gets sent to
the database.er....it has and that's what you use in your code. (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/sql/Statement.html#executeQuery(java.lang.String))

Question about Workspace enabled tables, triggers

Hello,
We have created our tables structured from Oracle Designer and we also have several triggers, API for almost all the tables. While reading Workspace Manager, it seems that after I would execute dbms_wm.enableversioning, it woould rename my table to a view and would creat other views and tables. I have following questions:
1)What would happen to those triggers which are based on the original tables. Would trigger be attached to the VIEW definition of the origianl table?
2) Lets assume I have a customer and cust_address tables respectively, I have a customer id =100 which has two customer address rows in the LIVE. I have a workspace is based on cust_address table. Would it be possible for a user to see all the address data ( live + workspace) for customer=100 in one SQL query?
3) What if I have two live customer address rows in cust_address tables and 3 rows in workspace of cust_address table, does workspace manager allow me to conditionally add and update worskpace rows to LIVE data, ie could I add 1 row from workspace to LIVE and update one row from workspace to LIVE data?
Thanks for your answers?

Ben,
Here is our business problem. We receive data in terms of text file regarding our customers. Files contain customer name and address information and customers payments and debts information. For the sake of simplicity,lets assume that I have customer , address, payment , debts and referral table . From the file we only load to teh customer,adderss,payments and debts table, once data is loaded, end user creates referral data which is stored in referral table.
When we receive data, we are not sure if data contain any customer unique key ( customer id, or SSN etc) , we try to match the incoming data based on last name, first name, date of birth , SSN and address etc, if system find a match then it creates rows in all these 4 tables (customer, address, payments and debts). If system did not find any match then I have another table called potential_match ( with similar columns like customer table plus matched_customer_id) and system insert the customer rows in this table and also insert other data such as address, payments and debts to the respective table. I want to process all these data immediately because business need is to immediately create referral data.
When an end user find some time, they come to potential_match table and they try to identify if two customers are really same or not, if they decide that two customers data are same then we have to associate address , payments, debts and referral data ( and some data in other tables which have been created by other process) to the original customers. So I need to write a PL/SQL which will basically add all the children records of customer say B to customer say A if A and B are same.
I was looking into workspace manager and I found that it might be a possible solution and I am not sure how would I utilize WSM so that end user does not have to change the way they used to be working. IF I donot add customer's other data ( address, payments, debt etc) to LIVE immediately then they would not be able to search for the customer debt if the debt is in workspace. I want to give them a transparent look to LIVE and production data all time ( I donot want to give them gotoWorkspace feature). Only few user will have access to potential_match table and gotoWorspace and they will be able to merge /associate to the original customers ie removing from workspace and adding to LIVE. Some time users may want to unmatched also, meaning if they matched two customers into one then if due to some problem it was a wrong mergd then they should be able to unmerged into two different customers and associative data. Users also want to run temporal query such as they want to go back intime and want to see customer debt data as on Dec 2004.
Based on your experience, how would I be able to design my workspace, do you think WSM is the way to go or I should use my own PL/SQL custom code to implement the problem.? I have never used it so I am not sure, I need to understand its implication. Currently we are using Oracle 8.17 but very soon we are moving to 10G.
Thanks for all your help.

A question about iTunes library access.

I just got a MacBook Air, having used iTunes for years on iPods, iPhones and an Ipod but originally on my WIndows PC which I still use as my main machine. inlcuding putting CDs onto iTunes. I have around 300 albums on there.
I cannot view my iTunes library on my Macbook although I have authorised it. I have unauthorised all 5 devices and authorised each one again, but still on my Macbook my iTunes library is empty apart from 4 tracks I bought directly on iTunes.
Suggestions gratefully received!

The .exe files are the application files. your Mac will have hte mac version.
Look at this article.
Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
Copy the whole folder, complete, to the equivalent location on the Mac (as also indicated in the article). iTunes will then start up with your old library.
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

About multi process access BDB question

I am designing one system using BDB.I have some questions about multi process access BDB.
1.If there are two process, they are shared BDB cache or every one has self BDB cache? (My understanding is every process has cache by itself.)
2.If one process write BDB and at the same time one process read BDB,how to make read processs can read data which write by write process just now?

1.If there are two process, they are shared BDB cache
or every one has self BDB cache? (My understanding
is every process has cache by itself.)You can configure it either way. The cache is maintained as part of the so-called environment. The usual thing is to configure a shared cache. You need to read about environments in the BDB and BDB/XML documentation.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/xml/index.html
2.If one process write BDB and at the same time one
process read BDB,how to make read processs can read
data which write by write process just now?Use transactions, set up deadlock handling, and think about what transaction isolation guarantees you need. Note that there are four different fundamental setups for BDB: DS, CDS, TDS and HA, which stand for Data Store, Concurrent DS, Transactional DS and High Availability. For read-write concurrency, you need TDS.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/xml/ref/intro/products.html
For high concurrency at the expense of memory, consider using multi-version concurrency control (MVCC). You can read about it in the following thread, especially in George Feinberg's replies:
Deadlock handling for beginners
In addition, there is ample documentation included in the BDB/XML distribution. It's pretty complex, as BDB can be configured in many different ways.

Questions about Access Manager tutorials available in netbeans site

Hi
Thank you for reading my post
I have some questions about two tutoral which i find in :
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/amsecurity.html and
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/amsecurity-liberty.html
here is my problem :
we have some web services, now we want to have authentication applied for consumer who try to access our web services.
we need to have most possible flexibility because we may deploy the server for a customer with an already established Identity database ( Database Table with user details)
Also we need to have Transport level security using SSL.
I read and studied both of them and now i have some questions :
-I think Securing Web Services Using the SAML or UserNameToken is what we need for authentication and autorization of web service consumers?
is that right?
-Does Sun Java System Access Manager provide flexibility to authenticate user/password with a database table content?
-How we can apply roles in Sun Java System Access Manager when we authenticate users ?
Thanks

Imagine that we want to have an end to end security for our web services
we thought that we could use message level encryption to protect the soap message and also we should protect our web services from un-authenticated acess,
we will use userName token for this.
Our customer has large database which contains many user/password and role of those users.
some of web services should be available to higher role (manager) and not for all users.
so we should check a user role before we allows him/her to access a web service.
my question is whether Sun Access manager can help us with this? or there are other configuration or packages that we should apply to have this feature.
to explain more :
our client side is a swing application, users enter username/password to login into system. after they loged in, we send user/pass every time user want to request some data from some services. (is it good to send user/pass every time?)
We want Sun Access Manager to handle users authentication .
We also need to handle role related authorization, can Sun access manager handle this?
Thanks

Question: about accessing Nik collection through Lightroom

I have recently purchased and installed Nik collection. I have no problem reaching the plug-ins in Photoshopbut can't in Lightroom (except for HDR)

Thanks! Technology senses my fear and always makes it difficult for me! Ha! I can use the Nik programs so if I have to, I'll work on them there.

I suspect there are potential issues on some systems with the Google "combined" version, when I installed it I had recieved a copy of the Google complete version free because of my purchase history. I was advised that I could install over the Individual Plugins I had. I never got as far as trying it with Lightroom, only in Elements. The plugins appeared but the load times were abysmal and I mean realy bad , far longer than the Nik individual Installs, so I dumped it and reverted to the originals. Pity cos I wanted the Sharpen Plugin that I have'nt got. After reverting all was back to normal The Nik individual Plugins load very quickly. It was this that convinced me there is a difference in the Google setup.There are people on here with far more knowledge than me, hopefully one of them can help you, alternatively you might try asking Google for help with this.

Questions about using Bitlocker without TPM

We currently use Bitlocker to encrypt our Windows 7 computers with TPM. Now we are looking at encrypting some Windows 7 computers without a TPM. I see how to change the group policy setting to allow Bitlocker without a TPM. I have looked at a lot of other
threads and I have a few questions about how the Bitlocker without TPM works.
1) I see a USB drive containing a key is required for Bitlocker configurations without a TPM, say the end user loses this USB drive, what are the recovery options for their computer?
This article seems to indicate that without the USB drive connected, you are unable to even access recovery options http://blogs.technet.com/b/hugofe/archive/2010/10/29/bitlocker-without-tpm.aspx
We have recovery backed up to AD when Bitlocker is enabled, but how could we do this recovery on a computer on computer where it's USB is lost? Would we have to remove the HD itself and attach it to another computer to access?
2) After enabling Bitlocker on a computer without a TPM and using the USB Drive for the key, is there a way to also add a PIN or password protection at bootup?

Hi,
Sorry for my dilatory reply,
Configuring a startup key is another method to enable a higher level of security with the TPM. The startup key is a key stored on a USB flash drive, and the USB flash drive must be inserted every time the computer starts. The startup key is used to provide
another factor of authentication in conjunction with TPM authentication. To use a USB flash drive as a startup key, the USB flash drive must be formatted by using the NTFS, FAT, or FAT32 file system.
You must have a startup key to use BitLocker on a non-TPM computer.
From: http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/ee449438(v=ws.10).aspx#BKMK_Key
For more Q&A about BitLocker, you can refer to the link above.
hope this is helpful.

Legality questions about Home Sharing

I have some legality questions about Apple's Home Sharing technology.
As I understand it, you can share (that is, copy it from one computer to another) your music, movies, applications and other iTunes-managed files amongst five computers. The only 'trick' is that each computer must have an iTunes Store account and must be logged in in order for it to work.
My question concerns the copying aspect and the legality of it. For content that was purchased through the iTunes Store I can see how Home Sharing can provide a limitation on content sharing, since all of the machines would need to be connected to Apple's servers in order for the validation process to happen. But what about content that was added to iTunes through other means, e.g., ripping my own CDs or converting my DVDs? These items can still be copied via Home Sharing and as there's no DRM on them there's no way they can be protected against "illegal" or "unauthorized" use.
It was my understanding that if I gave a copy of a song to someone else, that's illegal. Apple's Home Sharing technology seems to facilitate this action. If I rip a CD or DVD into iTunes and someone copies it out, isn't that making an illegal copy? Can I be held liable for distribution of content?
And how far does this extend? If I live in a house with four unrelated people, are they legally (?) allowed to copy music and media amongst each another? Is there a perceived or actual difference between using Home Sharing to copy a movie versus, say, using a USB flash drive? And what if one of them moves out? Am I legally obligated to go through that person's hard drive and remove content that they copied from me before they leave the building?
Does Home Sharing somehow retroactively change the copyright application on a given CD or DVD? Most of my CDs and DVDs contain notices and warnings against distributing copies. Can these warnings now be ignored, or at least amended with "...unless you're using iTunes Home Sharing" at the ends of them?
I am not trying to stir up a hornet's nest here. I'm only trying to better understand the legal issues surrounding Home Sharing and particularly how they relate to unprotected content. It seems very contradictory that the RIAA and MPAA would be fighting so hard against peer-to-peer services like BitTorrent and Gnutella while apparently allowing peer-to-peer services through iTunes Home Sharing.
Furthermore, I also understand that the intention of this system was to allow families who are living together to have common access to all of the "household" music, but my issues aren't about this. I envision, for example, a college dorm building where there's several hundred people living together on the same network subnet, and all of them have Home Sharing enabled and everyone is copying thousands and thousands of songs to/from one another. Is this now legal?
Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks.

If I rip a CD or DVD into iTunes and someone copies it out, isn't that making an illegal copy?
RIPping of commercial, encrypted DVDs (most of them) is illegal to begin with. Or rather, breaking the encryption on a DVD is illegal and in order to RIP the DVD, you must break the encryption. SO you have already "broken the law" by having a copy on your computer.
Most of my CDs and DVDs contain notices and warnings against distributing copies.
Most of your DVDs have a notice about even simply making a copy, not only distributing copies.
Much of your post has been cussed and discussed by many, many people (lawyers, corporations, organizations, individuals, etc.) and no one has come (or likely ever will come) to a complete agreement.
Generally, "sharing" in the same house hold amongst family members seems to be okay. Outside the same household/family is almost always not okay.
I envision, for example, a college dorm building where there's several hundred people living together on the same network subnet, and all of them have Home Sharing enabled and everyone is copying thousands and thousands of songs to/from one another. Is this now legal?
No.
This is exactly what Napster was and why they were sued & shut down.
I imagine Apple lawyers have done their homework as well as consulted with the labels to discuss these exact issues.
And it's called "Home Sharing" to indicate that it is not "Dorm Sharing" or "Workplace Sharing", or even simply "Library Sharing"etc. even though it may be possible to use it in other places than the Home.
Users on other computers need to know your iTunes ID and password to enable it Home Sharing. Likely this is how Apple got the lables to be okay with it.
Are you gonna give (and get) dozens/hundreds/thousands/any other users your iTunesID & password?
You can contact Apple Legal here -> http://www.apple.com/legal

Question about internet security...please help!

Hi everyone,
I have a question about the macbook's internet security.
A few days ago I became aware that my sibling was using a laptop for internet use at my house which he got from a person that I do not trust. He is very computer-savy and we're worried that he may have installed some form of spy ware on that laptop and in turn, may have tried (or succeeded) in accessing my Macbook through some form of spyware. My house is hooked up with a D-Link wireless router, and at the time, it had no internet/access-password.
So my question is, could this person have accessed my computer and personal information remotely by and through the laptop that my sibling got from him. I was under the impression that Mac's have very strong firewalls, but I have also heard that as long as he knew what he was doing, he could have accessed my computer. I don't have a wireless "network" set up at my house, I just simply use the router for internet. But my sibling told me that this guy was his "network administrator" which leads me to believe that he must have had remote access to the laptop.
Can anyone with knowledge on this problem please weigh in and let me know what I need to do to confirm that no one has accessed anything from my macbook.
Thanks!

One option if you want to be extra safe is turning on FileVault (System Preferences -> Security), which will encrypt everything on your computer so that if somehow someone does gain access to your computer they will have a next to zero chance of being able to read anything they get from your computer. You have to have a lot of extra hard drive space on your computer to turn it on though.
Also, a "network" is just a connection between computers, regardless of the internet is involved or not. So when you connect your computer to the router which gives you the internet, you are putting your computer on a network. Now I believe that in order for this person whom you don't trust to gain remote access to your computer, they would have to have more information such as an IP address for your computer, through the router in order to get to it.
One thing I think is very important to consider that isn't on the technical side of things is something called "Social Engineering" which is a form of cracking, or hacking. You can do your own research, but in a nutshell Social Engineering is getting people that have access to something I'm trying to hack to give me information. For instance, this person you don't trust could be giving your brother the computer in the hopes that he will download something through your router to that laptop which could give him IP addresses and other information. And then when he gets that laptop back he could scan it for useful information and your brother wouldn't know he did anything wrong at all. The best way to avoid this is purely education and communication. Even if your brother doesn't share the same suspicions about this person, surely he will understand the need to be careful and smart when it comes to sharing personal information in the digital world.

Few questions about apex + epg and cookie blocked by IE6

Hi,
I would like to ask a few questions about apex and epg.
I have already installed and configured apex 3.2 on oracle 10g (on my localhost - computer name 'chen_rong', ip address -192.168.88.175 ), and enable anonymous access xdb http server.
now,
1. I can access 'http://chen_rong' , 'http://localhost' , 'http://192.168.88.175' without input username / password for realm 'XDB' in IE6;
2. I can access 'http://localhost/apex/apex_admin' , 'http://192.168.88.175/apex/apex_admin' , and I can be redirected into apex administation page after input admin/<my apex admin password> for realm 'APEX' in IE6;
3. I can access 'http://chen_rong/apex/apex_admin' in IE6, but after input admin/password , I can not be redirected into administation page, because the cookie was blocked by IE6.
then, the first question is :
Q1: What is the difference among 'http://chen_rong' , 'http://localhost' , 'http://192.168.88.175' ? I have already include site 'chen_rong' into my trusted stes! why the cookie was blocked by IE6. I have already tried firefox and google browser, both of them were ok for 'chen_rong', no cookie blocked from site 'chen_rong'!
and,
1. I have tried to use the script in attachment to test http authentication and also want to catch the cookie by utl_http .
2. please review the script for me.
3. I did:

I use oracle database enterprise edtion 10.2.0.3. I have already figured out the epg on 10.2.0.3 to support apex 3.2.
And as I described above, the apex site works fine for ip address , and localhost. but the cookie will be blocked by IE6, if I want to access the site by 'http://computername:port/apex/apex_admin'. This problem does not occured in firefox and google browser. Could someone give me answer?

A Question about LV Database Connectivity Toolkit

Hello everyone!
I have a question about using LabVIEW DataBase Connectivity Toolkit 1.0.2 that eagerly needs your help. I don't know how to programmaticlly create a new Microsoft Access(.mdb)file (Not a new table in a existing Database)using LabVIEW Database Connectivity Toolkit1.0.2. As you know, usually we can set up the connection by creating a Universal Data Link (.udl) file and inputting the path to the DB Tools Open Connec VI in the LabVIEW DataBase Connectivity Toolkit. However, searching a table within an existing database containing a great many tables is a toilfulif job. If I want to use a new DataBase file with the date and time string as its name to log my acquisition data in each measurement process, how to do? I am sure someone of you must can resolve my question, and thanks very much for your help.

I don't know what your real design considerations are here but, from I understand from your post, this is a really bad way to go about the process of logging data -- IF you want to be able to do significant ad hoc or stored procedures analyses after it has been collected. Using separate MDB files for data that ONLY differs by one field (namely that date) is not the most efficient way to organize it. What would be much more efficient would a joined table including the date and a reference ID of some sort for the various measurements that were done. That way your stored procedures for looking at ALL measurements of type X would be very simple going across ALL dates. Making such a comparison across multiple MDB files is a much more challenging process AND doing the original data collection in that way doesn't really gain you anything.
Generally, if something is difficult to do in the DCT (Database Connectivity Toolkit) it's because it's a "not good thing" to do within MDBs. I know that others probably disagree with that but I've worked with Access since it's initial release and other RDBMs prior to that both through compiled tools, Unix scripts, etc. You may, of course, still choose to proceed in the way you've described and that may work excellently for you.

Question about Finder-Load-Beans flag

Hi all,
I've read that the Finder-Load-Beans flag could yield some valuable gains in performance
but:
1) why is it suggested to do individual gets of methods within the same Transaction
? (tx-Required).
2) this strategy is useful only for small sets of data, isn't it? I imagine I
would choose Finder-Load-Beans to false (or JDBC) for larger sets of data.
3) A last question: its default value is true or false ?
Thanks
Francesco

Because if there are different transactions where the get method is called
then the state/data of the bean would most be reloaded from the database. A
new transactions causes the ejbLoad method to be invoked in the beginning
and the ejbStore at the end. That is the usual case but there are other ways
to modify this behavior.
Thanks

Hi thorick,
I have found this in the newsgroup. It's from R.Woolen answering
a question about Finder-Load-Beans flag.
"Consider this case:
tx.begin();
Collection c = findAllEmployeesNamed("Rob");
Iterator it = c.iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
Employee e = (Employee) it.next(); System.out.println("Favorite color is:"+ e.getFavColor());
tx.commit();
With CMP (and finders-load-beans set to its default true value), thefindAllEmployeesNamed
finder will load all the employees with the name of rob. The getFavColormethods
do not hit the db because they are in the same tx, and the beans arealready loaded
in the cache.
It's the big CMP performance advantage."
So I wonder why this performance gain can be achieved when the iterationis inside
a transaction.
Thanks
regards
Francesco

If you know that you will be accessing the fields of all the Beans that
you get back from a
finder,
then you will realize a significant performance gain. If one selects
100s or more beans
using
a finder, but only accesses the fields for a few, then there may be some
performance cost.
It could
depend on how large some of the fields are. I'd guess that the cost
of 1 hit to the DB per
bean vs.
the cost of 1 + maybe 1 more hit to the DB per bean, would usually be
less. A performance
test using
your actual apps beans would be the only way to know for sure.
3) A last question: its default value is true or false ?The default is 'True'

Question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)

Dear everyone
Could I ask you a question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)?
I was asked if it's possible to create a report which compares the data between different SAP systems (both production systems).
Now, the easiest way would be to use the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) within a SAP infoset query (SQ01 type query).
But I heard the rumor that using the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) is not advisable due to the security reason.
However, I am not exactly sure what sort of security problems this function module can possibly have...
Would you help me on this?
I also would like to know if using "remote enabled module" type function module can always overcome this possible security issue.
Or, are there any points that I need to be careful about even when I use "remote enabled module" function module?
Thank you very much in advance.
Takashi

Dear Fred-san
Thank you very much for your support on this.
But, may I double check about what you mentioned above?
So, what you were mentioning was that if some user executes the query with
the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE), under the following conditions, he can access to
the HR data even when he does not have the authorizations for HR transactions?
<Conditions>
1. the user has the authorization for HR database tables themselves
2. RFC_READ_TABLE is called to retrieve the data from HR database
<example>
Data: LF_HR_TABLE like DD02L-TABNAME value 'PA0000'.
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_READ_TABLE'
   EXPORTING
    query_table                = LF_HR_TABLE
TABLES
   OPTIONS                    =
   fields                     =
   data                       =    .
But then, as long as we call this function module for a non-critical tables such as
VBAP (sales order) or EKKO (purchase order) within our query, it wouldn't seem to be
so security risk to use RFC_READ_TABLE...
Besides, each query (infoset query) has got the concept of user groups, which limits
the access to the queries within the user group.
※If someone does not belong to the user group, he cannot execute the queries within that
   user group, etc
So, my feeling is that even infoset queries does have authorization concept...
Would you give me your thought on this?
I also thank you for your information for SCU0.
That is an interesting transaction
Kind regards,
Takashi
