Questions on SP05 repository security/Import

1. How to reset the Admin password for the repository without logging into the repository (what if you forget the password)?
2. I need to have three roles,
     - Role One should have authorizations to load / unload the repository only
     - Role two should be able to login to a repository and create users/ roles only
     - Role three should be able to add/modify tables and table fields
Basically I need to have seperation in Basis/Security/developer roles. Is that possible with the current version
3. Is it possible to end a user login session from console or by using clix or API?
4. I read somewhere is SP05 documentation that it would allow secure logins using LDAP - does that mean we can do a SSO from portal through LDAP?
5. SP05 allows role transports. Is there any documentation available for that. Can someone provide steps for role transports as I could not see the option anywhere.
6. What does save update in import manager do? how is it different from save? does it impact the XML schema also if your map is based on XML schema?
Thanks

Hi Harsha,
1. If you don't have another administrative-level account to use to login and reset the password, an MDM Consultant can reset the Admin password for you. We do not publish the procedure for obvious security reasons. In SP5 Patch2 you will be able to archive the repository without logging in to the repository and send it to support to have the Admin password reset. (You will need to have the MDS server password, if one is set, to perform this operation since you will not need to login to the repository anymore.)
2. I don't think the Load/Unload role permission granularity was added until SP5 Patch 2. The other roles can be created in Patch 1.
3. No, there is no way to end a user session (you can essentially boot all client users off by unloading a repository, but there's no way to do just a single user at this time). If you would like, you can submit a feature request (I guess via OSS) for us to potentially include this feature in the next major release.
As for the last three, I am unable to address those issues. Hopefully someone else can.
Hope this helps,
-Cleopatra

Contact the ExpressLane at: https://expresslane.apple.com then iTunes and iTunes Store and see if they can help. You might also try http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact

Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions; nobody on these boards can.

On my iphone 4 it still wants me to answer the security question to improve the security

on my iphone 4 it still wants me to answer the security question to improve the security How do I fix this I have been doing this for the past 5 days or so and it's bugging me!

It will be 3 questions no matter where you do it. It's been quite a while since I did this myself, but as I recall this is what I did:
Open iTuens on your computer
Click Store>View My Account
In the pop-up window, verify that the correct Apple ID is shown, then enter your password and click View Account
At that point, I believe I was prompted to choose my security questions and provide answers. Or perhaps I had to click Done on the bottom right first...can't remember.
If that doesn't work, try choosing Store>Sign Out and then Store>Sign In, provide your password and perhaps you will get the prompt then.

Security import -x

I want import my certificate with non-exportable option.
I open terminal and type:
security import client.p12 -k ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain -x
Than I go to keychain GUI, export my certificate to file b.p12, delete it from keychain, than import b.p12 from GUI and I have private key, it is bad fro security.
How I can import certificate as non-exportable?

UPDATE. I have an eMac at home-1.25 GHz also running 10.4.8-with the same updates as the afore-mentioned Macs and it still works perfectly. I tried trashing and reinstalling Infini-D on the the G5 with no change. I'm stumped.

MDM4J API & SP05 Repository

Hi All
Im using MDM4J API to login into MDM 5.5 SP05 Repository using the CatalogData.Login() method.
Here it is..
catalogData.Login(server, port, user, password,"English [US]", minCon, maxCon, timeOut, logFile);
But, connection establishment is failed intermittently and following Login error is collected in logs.
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Login method has not been successfully called.
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Login method has not been successfully called.
at a2i.common.CatalogData.Preprocess(Unknown Source)
Please help. I guess we can use CatalogData.Login() method to connect to SP05 repository, which prompts the user to login when the user to tries to connect to the repository using MDM SP05 console.
Thanks

Master & work repository Export/Import

Hi all,
I have installed ODI on the production server.
I have to import the repositories on this prod server from the development server.
1.I am not having seperate schema for the master repository for the prod & I have to use the same master repository that was created for the development server SOothere is no import & export ??
Question is
Can I refer the same master repository schema in the production server that means all the connection details i.e it will be the linking of same repository that was there for DEV?? Can I do that??
2. I have separate schema for work repository in prod but have to use the work repository of the DEV server.
here I have to do import & export???
Please guide
Thanks
Sourabh

How are you trying to do the import/export?
If you are importing the obejcts in designer - it will use the credentials you specified when you connected.

Windows & File System Repository - security issues

Hello,
I got a strange behavior in EP 6 SP 2 using KM and Windows file systems. Here is the scenario:
- I created a Network Path and a File System Repository pointing to a Windows 2003 File System, following the portal help instructions. Both EP6 server and Windows 2003 server are in the same domain.
- according the KM Monitor, the repository is up and running
- the portal users can access their respectives folders in the file system after having their uids / passwords mapped in the user mapping option
- the portal is assuming the permissions (read & write & list folder & etc) from windows
So far it seemed to be everything ok - but after some tests we got the problem:
- user "A" has his uid/pwd mapped in portal, and read & write access to the file system "dept_folder". He can access the folder through a KM iview, with r/w privileges.
- user "B" has his uid/pwd mapped in portal, and ONLY read access to the file system "dept_folder". He can access the folder through an KM iview, with read privileges.
- and here comes the problem: if user "A" is logged, and user "B" replaces his uid by user "A" uid in the user mapping (only the uid, the password doesn't matter) he can access the file system "dept_folder" with the same privileges than user "A".
I looked in SDN, SAP Notes and SAP Portal Help trying to find an article related to this, no success so far. We have CM Patches 2 & 3 applied, and Patch 4 doesn't have any comment about this specific security problem.
Has someone already face this problem ? Or could be something wrong in my configuration ?
Rgds, and tks in advance
Fernando Cervantes

Hi David
The same occurred here, I think I know the reason. Let me just give you an overview of my configuration:
Network Path id          ccc-ccc1fs-drive_i
Description *           DRIVE I - CCC1FS Server
Network Path *
ccc1fs\Drive_I
Password           *********
Re-Enter Password      *********
User *           ccc\service
The user was provided by the Windows administrator and has full control for this folder.
File System Repository
Description                  File System drive_i CCC1FS Server
Prefix *                /ccc-ccc1fs-drive_i
Root Directory *           //ccc1fs/drive_i
Windows Landscape System      Windows
ACL Manager                Not set
Security Manager          W2KSecurityManager
The important here is the Security Manager configuration - it must be W2KSecurityManager, otherwise you will have the user permissions overrided by admin user permission. And you will need to configure a Windows system landscape too.
I hope this can help you...concerning the bosses, I got the same situation, I said the whole stuff would work fine
Rgds,
Fernando

Questions about using Lightroom to import my pictures..

Hi.
My main use for Lightroom is picture import, as it does a superb job on arranging my pictures at import time, but I have a few questions that maybe you guys can answer.
First and foremost, my camera has that orientation data, but somehow the image file that ends up on my hard drive is always vertical (i.e. 3264x2448) even though there are pictures that are shot horizontal (i.e. 2448x3264). Is Lightroom capable of importing the pictures already rotated, or is there a setting that allows that? (Note that the pictures INSIDE Lightroom are shown rotated, but I'm talking about the JPG file stored in my hard drive)
Second, how can I set up Windows Vista to display Lightroom as an option to import pictures when I insert my card or connect my camera?
Thanks..

Let me see if I understand your rotation issue. It seems that you shoot jpeg (using which camera?) and that the images show correctly rotated in Lightroom but not in another (unspecified) application.
Does the software that came with the camera show the jpeg properly rotated? (I'm certain that it does.) What software doesn't show proper rotation? Windows Explorer? You would not want Lightroom to physically rotate the image on disk since that would violate it's non-destructive editing rule.
Lightroom has a preference setting that allows the import dialog to be shown when a memory card is detected. Avoid importing directly from the camera and use a card reader.

Question for install repository on RAC environment

hi all,
Our RAC has two nodes: node1(primary) and node2. Each node has two database instances: odsstag and ods. I've finished with odsstag, and
now I am testing on ods. I create a new repository owner on node1.ods, and get
node2.ods registered via repository assisstant. My question is will this change
the value for rtrepos.properties file? I mean do I need to copy the file to
node2 again?
thanks

Hi,
you should use node net service name

Question about temporary tables and imports.

Hello everybody.
Interesting one this. We have an application that uses global temporary tables. We refresh live to test using import of the application schema. I noticed when doing this yesterday that the temporary tables were being recreated in test as perminant rather than temporary.
Is there a reason for this? Has anyone come across this before? Is there a way around it (apart from manual checking)?
Many thanks
Rup

Question about bulk entering security password to 600 forms, then exporting datato spreadsheet

How do I extract data from password secured Fillable-Forms when all the forms (600+) have the same password?
- single file at a time, I am able to enter password and extract data (but I have over 600 forms)
- I have already compiled all files into a response-file, but was unable to exctract data from Portfoio (only "File_Name" is transfered to spreadsheet)
Questions:
1) is there a location in the Portfolio to enter the password (that I am not seeing) that will allow data to be extracted?
2) is there a method to 'bulk' enter the password to individual forms that will allow data to be compiled directly into a spreasheet?

Thanks, now I understand why the wifi keeps dropping. On my personal wireless network, it also seems the distance from the access point is not good compared to my laptop. At work our network & exchange teams don't seem to have the desire to struggle with this "toy" until customers start forcing its adoption. I am using OWA and it works fine over EDGE. I will share your posting with them.
Thank you again.
