Question about passwords please

I just set up Airport Express, and it works great in providing Internet access. However, I unplugged the Airport Express when I wasn't using it and then plugged it back in last night. I expected to have toenter the password for the Airport Express but the computer did not ask me for it and I was automatically able to click on the Internet. Is this normal? Ånd, is there a way for me to require the computer to ask me for a password each time I want to use the Internet after the router is unplugged?
Many thanks.

Donna42, Welcome to the discussion area!
I expected to have toenter the password for the Airport Express but the computer did not ask me for it and I was automatically able to click on the Internet. Is this normal?
Yes that is normal. OS X records the password in the keychain when you first enter it. That makes it easier for you so that you don't have to reenter it every time that you reconnect to the network.
Ånd, is there a way for me to require the computer to ask me for a password each time I want to use the Internet after the router is unplugged?
Yes. You can remove the current entry from the keychain. The next time that you connect to the network and enter your password, uncheck the box asking if you want the password saved to the keychain.

  • I hava a question about RMI,please help me!

    Ladys and Gentleman,I hava a question about RMI.I wirte four little programs in java that is about RMI on my PC.
    import java.rmi.*;
    public interface AddServerIntf extends Remote{
    double add(double d1,double d2) throws RemoteException;
    import java.rmi.*;
    import java.rmi.server.*;

    public double add(double d1,double d2)throws RemoteException{
    return d1+d2;
    import java.net.*;
    import java.rmi.*;
    public class AddServer{
    public static void main(String args[]){
    try{
    AddServerImpl addServerImpl=new AddServerImpl();
    Naming.rebind("AddServer",addServerImpl);
    }catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
    import java.rmi.*;
    public class AddClient
         public static void main(String args[]){
         try{
         String addServerURL="rmi://"+args[0]+"/AddServer";
         AddServerIntf addServerIntf=(AddServerIntf) Naming.lookup(addServerURL);
         System.out.println("The first number is: "+args[1]);
         double d1=Double.valueOf(args[1]).doubleValue();
         System.out.println("The second number is: "+args[2]);
         double d2=Double.valueOf(args[2]).doubleValue();
         System.out.print("The sum is: "+addServerIntf.add(d1,d2));
         }catch(Exception e){
         System.out.println("Exception: "+e);
    And I compiled these files,so I got 4 class files(AddServer.class,AddServerIntf.class,AddServerImpl.class,AddServerClient.class).Then I use "rmic AddServerImpl" got another two files(AddServerImpl_Skel.class and AddServerImpl_Stub.class).Then I input command:rmiregistry,in another window,I input command:java AddServer,I got some exceptions,I was confused by these exceptions.The exception is:

    Maybe I am off base here but it seems to me the problem is the way in which you bind your server. The server must be bound to the same address and you are looking up from, i.e. "rmi://" host "/AddServer"
    so
    Naming.rebind("AddServer",addServerImpl);should be
    Naming.rebind("rmi://127.0.0.1/AddServer", addServerImpl);to match
    String addServerURL="rmi://"+args[0]+"/AddServer";
    AddServerIntf addServerIntf=(AddServerIntf)
    Naming.lookup(addServerURL);Hopefully this will solve your problem, if not it is a problem with your classpath. An easy way to make sure it can see your files is to set the java.rmi.server.codebase to point to where your classes are, e.g.
    java -Djava.rmi.server.codebase=file:"c:\\cygwin\\home\\tweak\\keck_folder\\cmsi401\\RMIGalaxySleuth\\classes\\" AddServer
    I had to set the codebas for my rmi stuff to work no matter how much I messed with the classpath.
    Hope this helps,

  • Question about Password file

    Good afternoon,
    In the 2 Day DBA document it states:
    >
    When you invoke DBCA as part of the Oracle Database installation process, DBCA
    creates a password file with one entry: the SYS user.
    >
    I created the database using DBCA and, it must have created a password file for me since I am able to log in remotely to the database.
    The question is: I cannot locate the password file DBCA created, I don't know what its name is. Can someone provide me with the name DBCA uses for the password file ?
    Thank you very much for helping,
    John.

    Hello SB,
    >
    post proof
    >
    I don't know if this qualifies as "proof" but... from the 2 Day DBA document distributed by Oracle, page 6-9:
    >
    When you invoke DBCA as part of the Oracle Database installation process, DBCA
    creates a password file with one entry: the SYS user. Granting SYSDBA to a user adds
    that user to the password file automatically.
    >
    I have no reason to doubt that statement. ;)
    >
    for some/many/most Oracle versions which you decided we did not need to know yours the file resides in
    $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
    >
    I didn't decide you didn't need to know. I forgot to mention I am using Windows. As far as the Oracle version, since I used to constantly forget, I made the version part of my user name 11gR2, I can see how that can be easily overlooked.
    Thank you for your help,
    John.

  • Question About Password Safety

    I've been told that if I feel my passwords have been compromised, I should change them. But how does a person gain access to a password in the first place? And if I don't know how it's happening, what's to prevent it from happening again? Sorry if the question is a bit vague. Perhaps someone can help me fine tune it a bit.

    Using an "obvious" password like a name, birthday, etc.
    Using a simple password that's easy to decode such as passwords with fewer than 7 or 8 characters.
    Giving your password to someone who in turn passes it on to someone else.
    Giving others access to your computer.
    Using the same password for all accesses.
    Not changing your password regularly.
    The above is not all inclusive. Also, see OS X Mountain Lion: Understand passwords.

  • Question about passwords-

    Hope someone can help. I have my user [administrator?] passord all set up but is it possible to have a separate password that controls who gets to see my folders? Someone else who uses my computer is snooping through my personal stuff… if someone could advise and maybe provide a ‘stoopid’ person’s step-by-step guide to setting it up I’d sure be grateful!

    Hi pain..., Welcome to Apple's Users Help Users Forums.
    The folders in question need to be in your home folder and not in shared just in case you somehow put them in the wrong place.
    Also check permissions and cmd i on the folders and make sure they are what you want.

  • Question about password

    How can I change the value of getPasword() method from char[] to String?

  • Question about Password Keeper

    Hello All,
    This is my first forum post.  Does anyone know if it is possible to retrieve password keeper information from the blackberry desktop manager?  I did a backup and restore on my old phone, which had a broken screen, and am trying to retrieve the passwords to put on my new phone.  The at&t rep did not know if the desktop manager kept this information or not.  When I did a restore on my new phone, the passwords did not transfer.  I appreciate any advice.  Thanks.
    Todd

    Hello ToddStoner and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    The password keep should have backed up the data. If you go to do an advanced restore (as shown in KB23680 for Desktop Manager 6.0 or KB03953 for all other versions) you should see the Password Keeper database. 
    When you access the Password Keeper on your BlackBerry, did it ask for the existing password or create a new one?

  • Question about timeline please!

    ok i am just getting to grips with FCE HD, and i just was trying out a few ideas in the timeline, but rather than messing up stuff, is there any way of saving my timeline clips to the bin etc?
    what i mean is, say for e.g i have 10 clips in the timeline, with some rendered key frames, transitions etc, but i want to move that whole sequence so its safe, can i save it as a masterclip or something similar please?
    this may sound confusing, but i am trying to explain it as best as i can! so apologies for that

    ahh ok thanks!!
    simple as that eh!!
    great stuff and thanks again!!

  • Some questions about importing HTML files

    Hi, folks
    Let's suppose we want to import a pack of HTML files formatted in HTML5 wit's it's CSS into a double-oriented folio. A couple or three questions about that, please:
    1. Is there a limit for a reasonable quantity of HTML files I can import into a folio? I mean.. 100 would be way too much, for instance?
    2. These HTML files could be navigated and referenced from inside TOC-pages made in InDesign,right? (navto://..., I gues?)
    2. Will it be possible, by means of HTML adaptative design techniques, to treat both orientations (vertical and horizontal) as different viewports or screen sizes so that the design adapts for instance the column width with its CSS?
    3. That said, will the InDesign final app. respect that adaptative CSS rules?
    I am asking this because we are looking for a way to inject big quantities of content with a very similar design into our application in a really fast and automatizable way and I have the suspicion* that importing HTML5 preformated CSS files could be the a very good and simple alternative to importing XML into InDesign templates as we start out content as tagged almost-html files.
    Thanks a lot
    Gustavo Sánchez (Posting from Madrid)

    I assume you are asking about using HTML articles.
    1. There is no limit beyond simply keeping things reasonable.
    2. Yes. Just use navto://articlename
    3. Yes. I've used min-width of 768 and max width of 1024 to control it.
    4. InDesign does not enter into any of this with the exception of using the folio builder panel. Everything else is done in Dreamweaver or whatever program you decide to use for the article.
    If you want to restrict the HTML articles to one orientation or the other, use the _h and _v suffixes.

  • Hello, my friend's ipad locked and need the apple id and password to unlock the setup and open the ipad but he don't remember any one of them nor his email and security questions what can we do about that please solution?

    hello, my friend's i pad locked and need the apple id and password to unlock the setup and open the i pad but he don't remember any one of them nor his email and security questions the serial number of tha i pad is DYT*******PH and the part number is MC979ZP/A what can we do about that please solution?
    <Edited by Host>

    Your friend will have to remember or find his account id and password, without them he won't be able to re-activate the iPad.
    Does he have any of the account's downloads in his computer's iTunes library : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name.
    Or has he tried finding it via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID.
    If he can find the account id he can then get its password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com
    (As these are user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple, I've asked the hosts to remove the serial number from your post.)

  • 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.
