Quick answer needed - user/admin locked out.

A friend on a trip is all of a sudden asked to log in to her G4 laptop running Tiger. As far as she is aware no changes to settings have been made.
She does not have the install disks with her.
How can she get this sorted?
She is in a place where mac's aren't standard and there is no apple center near by.
Cheers

A quick follow up:
She gets the following message on the screen:
apple Darwin/bsd (localhost) (console)

Mac user account locked out in Microsoft Active Directory

Hi,
I have some users who get their user account locked out several times a day.
It seems to be an issue with the keychain.
Our users need to change their password every 90 days domain GPO applied on every users.
Do you know how to fix this issue?
I have notice that most of the time this happens when the Mac wakes up from sleep mode while still connected to the network and when the users try to re login.
Thank you.

Hi Nicky
I had a very similar problem a while back. It turned out that I had another device trying to retrieve mail from the corporate account. in my case it was an iPod that was just sitting on charge for weeks at a time but was accessing the Exchange server with the wrong password, after having changed it due to the same password policy you use. Of course after a set number of tries, the AD locked the account.
I always remember to change my iPhone password now

Nw 7.3 user admin lock : Authentication failed. Password locked

The original question (where answers should be put, too) is here: Nw 7.3 user admin lock : Authentication failed. Password locked

User accounts locking out.

I have recently upgraded to APEX 3.1.0.00.32 and have discovered that my users are now able to lock themselves out of my app.
I found settings both at the apex level as well as the workspace level to disable this feature, however the accounts are still locking out. Is there a setting somewhere else that I need to change?
Thanks,
Joel

Kathryn,
The feature has no Disable/Enable control. It can be required of workspaces (toggled at the site level) with respect to the epiration/locking policy for end-user accounts, or not. If not required, individual workspaces can enable or disable the feature, again, with respect to end user account expiration and locking.
For developer/admin accounts, the feature is always "on". If you prefer a longer expiration period, say 24 years, set the Account Password Lifetime (days) value to 8766. If you want to allow a large number, say 1000, of invalid consecutive password attempts, set the Maximum Login Failures Allowed value to 1000.

Admin lock out of guest loggin

I am the admin and i have locked myself out of my guest profile. How do i reset the password to have access again. I tried by changing it in the admin profile and i had no luck. Help thanks

Hi Ray,
Which version of the portal are you running? You should be able to remove the Edit Own Profile activity right from the Everyone group. If you are getting errors saying that it is locked, try going to the "Release Item Locks" utility and see if you can unlock the group from there. Then remove the activity right from the group.
Once you have that done, I would recommend creating a new group that is equivalent to the Everyone group, minus the custom guest user. Then re-add the activity right to this new group, so that everyone else can still edit their own profiles. What this will do is remove the Edit User Profile link from the My Account page for the custom guest user.
However, as you mentioned, a malicious user could figure out the URL and go to the editor directly. This is a bug and will be fixed in the next release. If you need to prevent users from such access to the editor, it will require you to customize the UserProfileEditorModel to check for the activity right when the editor first starts.
Another option is to remove Read rights for the custom guest user from each Property's ACL. The guest user will still be able to get to the editor, but because he doesn't have Read rights, he won't be able to edit anything. The only other thing is that he won't be able to View User Profile. But I'm guessing that since it's a guest user, there won't be much useful profile information anyways, right?
Let me know how these options work for you, and I can help you with whichever solution you choose.

Oracle Enterprise Repository User account locked out

Hi,
I installed Oracle Enterprise Repository 11g and tried logging into its web console by opening http://host:port/oer. I gave the wrong credentials and the account got locked. I went into weblogic web consle under security > myrealm but dont see the user admin. I then went to wls_web_console > Domain
Can someone please tell me how to unlock it....
Regards,
Anant

This should do the trick.
1. Stop OER
2, Login to DB using OER user
3. update ENTSECUSERS set ACTIVESTATUS=0 where USERNAME='xxxxxxxx';
4. Need to get the entsecuserid value from entsecusers table and column ID,
5. update CMEEUSERS set ACTIVESTATUS=0 where ENTSECUSERID='id value';
6. Restart OER

ODM User account locking out daily

Hello,
I have a user in my ODM that has his account locked out almost daily. I have the server set to disable after 5 invalid attempts. I can't seem to find in the logs where the attempts are coming from. He has even been away from his laptop for the entire day only to find his account locked. Is there anywhere in the logs I can find out more information about where they are originating?
Thanks,
JL

Thanks,
It does initially look like his iPhone might be the culprit. We have his settings set perfectly and I am getting DIGEST-MD5 authentication succeeded in the ApplePasswordServer.Server log. I noticed before it failed, it was listing DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed, SASL error -13 (password incorrect). It seems I was relying too much on SA's log viewer so I went to the server and used console which shed more light on the issue.
I will let this ride for a day or two before closing out and awarding points.
Thanks
JL

User account locked out in IAS Server.

Hi,
Windows Server 2003 stand-alone with IAS Server working as a RADIUS Server for WIFI connections.
There is a domain user account that keeps locking out randomly a few times a day.
This user account doesn't show up within the IAS server log file.
The Audit Policy is enabled in the w2k3 server for Succes, Failure and the events below comes up for every locking,
The Caller User Name is the IAS Server machine account.
I had to enable in the DCs the Netlogon debug mode to get the lock outs source, that turns out to be the IAS Server.
This is quite strange as I can't find the user account within the IAS Server log.
Could anybody clues me in on this issue?
Thak you.

it seems to me the user is logged on to some computer with an expired password. The computer attempts to connect to wifi and thus authenticate using the users expired credentials.
Ask the user to reboot all of the computers he uses. If the problem persists, check if the user has open sessions on other machines and check the configuration of the wireless network on the client.

Use of two HH - quick answer needed - please.

An enginer some three months ago, set up a HHv3 for the broadband and a HHv2 for the phone, so that I could continue to use the hub handsets and not have to replace them. I do not have broadbandtalk.
Want I need to know is: would in your opinion, this set up course the broadband to drop broadband connection, anything up to ten times a day?
The lights on the HHv3 are: power light = on, broadband light = on and wireless light = on.
The lights on the HHv2 are: power light = on, broadband light = off, wirelss light = on and phone light = on.
Surely if both HH's as suggested by UK tech team were connected to the broadband then both HH's broadband light's would be on.
The HHv2 show no connection since 10th January 2011.
The HHv3 is connected to the ADSL side and the HHv2 is connected to the phone side.
It would great if I could get a quick answer to this, as I am in the middle of an email back to the UK tech team.
Thanks to all.

sorry to say, but I don't think that the whole post is being read. As if it were, you would note that one hub is being used on the ADSL side and the other is on the phone side, so in effect the hub that is on the phone side is just being used as a wireless phone and not connected to the broadband/ADSL and is not being used as a router. I did also mention that the event log for the second hub the one being used for phone service only has no connection entries since January 2011. Not even to the time server, so therefore is not being used for any type of broadband connection. Even the broadband light is OFF.

Domain Admin locked out of local logon

I have a customer we just took over for. They have an existing issue where the domain administrator cannot log in locally to the DC. I've looked through all their GPOs and cannot find any instance of the domain admin groups being specially being denied this
right. In fact, it says right in the DC GPO that domain admins have the rights for local log in yet I can't seem to log in. Remote desktop works fine and that is how I've been accessing their DC but I cannot find an answer to this problem. Any ideas?

Quick answer needed----Does Oracle ADF Mobile support Canvas in HML5?

I am interested in Oracle ADF Mobile and want to develop a native mobile product on ipad maybe other tablet devices with CAD functionality. But I can't find a way to create HTML5 with Canvas on it. I wonder if Oracle ADF Mobile can do it. If so, how?
Thanks
Ling
Edited by: 973623 on Nov 28, 2012 8:51 AM

Hi,
ADF Mobile comes with a rich set of Data Visualization Components (charts/graphs/etc) that's based on HTML5 Canvas. You would not need to develop your own set of HTML5 components. This is applicable to the new on-device version of ADF Mobile. You would need to create an ADF Mobile app, and create your user interface using AMX components. The graphics component set is call DVT Mobile AMX.
If you decide to create your own HTML5-based pages with HTML5 canvas-based graphics component, you can still host your own HTML5 page inside ADF Mobile. However, you would need to create your own HTML5 page.
Thanks,
Joe Huang

Quick answer needed for fan question!

OK, I have read all the threads on the fan noise and downloaded XRG 1.1 to check my fan speeds. As I surmised, my fans appear to be running too fast (at all times). Here are the details.
CPU between 5% and 10%
CPU temp 120 degrees
Hard Drive 130 degrees
CPU fan 4400 rpm
Hard Drive fan 6000 rpm
System fan 4000 rpm
Do I need to reset the nvram? does this include having to pop the back off and reset 2 switches as I read on another post? any other suggestions?

Yes it's an original 20" iMac G5. I ordered it the week they were announced, and have an extra 512MB ram in there to bring the total up to 768MB. I know the fans will run faster and louder than they are now, because when I updated some firmware (for the little power light at the front) the fans ran at the default highest speeds and I almost thought the computer was actually going to fly away.
After putting the processor back to "automatic" and putting the computer to sleep for the night, when I brought it back up this morning the fans were in the 3000 range. Quiet. Amazing what 1000rpm can do. After running Safari and Mail for an hour or so, the fans are back up to the ranges I posted in my first post... not the fastest, but definately noticeable from across the room. Temperature and CPU loads never really changed much although the fan noise did.
Since the fans did start at a lower speed and then move higher, does this mean that the "button" reset inside will not work? or should i just go ahead and try? not really wanting to crack open the back if it is pointless...

Need quick answer - need to restore filters...

I know I will get rtfm for this one.
We just had a db go corrupt and are rebuilding it manually. We are on AIX 5.2 and Essbase 7.1.6.
What file(s) on the server contains the filter definitions? We want to pull this from backup.
Thanks!

Hi,
The essbase.sec file contains this information.
Have a look at :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_esb_dbag/frameset.htm?dbackup.htm for more details on backup and recovery, I know it is 9.3.1 but it is still relevant.

Lock Out "Edit my Profile" Functionality

We have custom guest users that we need this functionality locked out completely and not obscurely. Of course we tried the suppression of the top bar already, but, its is still fairly possible for "creative" users to stumble upon the HTTP request parameter for it "in_hi_space=ProfileSettings", so we need these custom users to get locked out completely that even if they typed that request parameter in, they would be presented a login page or error since they do not have activity access to this piece of functionality. Problem is, by default, even these "custom" guest users are part of the "Everyone" group, and this group has this activity right by default. When we tried to remove it, we get the error in the page that states "...Group is locked, cannot apply any changes..." or something to that effect. Does anyone know some techniques in UI mod we can use to get around this problem with the "Everyone" activity rights modifications?
