Secured WebDAV Mounted Volume Authorization Issues

I use a secure WebDAV mounted volume from myDisk.se and up until the latest Security Update have had zero issues being able to manipulate files and folders as I would on a normal volume. However, since the installation of the Security Update (2009-004 (PowerPC) 1.0) I find weird things happening with this mounted volume:
1) I am able to mount the secured WebDAV share using my security credentials.
2) I can create a default "untitled" folder but when I try to change its name, the WebDAV authorization dialog pops up and despite entering the same credentials (why, I am not sure as the volume has already been properly credentialed in order to be mounted), access is denied.
3) Trying to create a file within a folder on the mounted WebDAV volume I previously created pre-update causes the same authorization issue.
I have no other WebDAV shares I can try to mount from any other companies so I am not sure if this is a myDisk issue or one borne from the Security Update. I am not a .Mac/MobileMe user and that info is not filled out in System Preferences. The internal hard drive has been meticulously maintained with Disk and Permissions repair being run both before and after each and every software update installed. Likewise, the volume's structure is also checked both before and after and shows no need for repairs.
Any ideas? Perhaps there is a corrupted file somewhere that's affecting the authorizations needed by this third-party WebDAV volume?
The machine that has this problem is the last model iBook G4/1.33GHz 12" display, 1.5GB RAM, and a 100GB 5400rpm HD which replaced the stock OEM 40GB 4200rpm drive about one year ago.
I'm not willing to do an Archive and Install at this point as the loss of the WebDAV access to my online volume is not critical. Inconvenient as heck but not to the point where I'm willing (or able) stop my normal work to spend the hours it will take to get WebDAV access back.
Thanks in advance for any insights.

same problem here with webdav, I can't mount my idisk from university network on Mac Pro 10.5.3 (although it mounts fine from home network on both ibook and PMG5 10.5.3). Everything was fine with 10.5.2 and I already re-installed 10.5.3 combo. Other bugs as well with .Mac prefs (keeps crashing, sometimes it shows the available space on idisk but still no mounting, with error -35 or -8086), but .Mac sync is OK

  • Show mounted volumes in the Sidebar (not servers)?

    Anyone have a Leopard tweak or hack to get the side bar to show mounted volumes (i.e.; share points), rather than servers? I need to see the share points, not the server itself (especially when Kerberos is enabled - its just plain goofy)
    I like Leopard's Finder improvements for the most part, but need my sidebar to show discreet mounts like 10.4 (Tiger) did. Idont want to see the entire server thats hosting the mounted volume - thats just plain silly. I can use the "Connect to Server" app for that ( or browse the LAN)
    Dragging mounts to the sidebar will work (they show up as "devices"), but they are forgotten after a reboot. Its a temporary solution at best.
    Is this a bug? A limitation? A disaster? A feature?

    I'm not quite sure what your complaint is. You still have the same option to manually connect via the "Go" menu as with Tiger, do you not? Does this not still result in mounted volumes appearing in the devices list? (BTW, "devices" is the appropriate generic name for them in a UNIX environment -- don't blame Apple for that, it is just following a naming convention older & more established than those of either the Mac or Windows OS's.)
    If people are confused by the "Shared" section of the sidebar, which is a convenience item not essential to creating sharing connections, why not just suggest they remove it? A set of Finder preferences exists for this purpose. Deselect all three & no "Sharing" sidebar section will appear. Apple is not forcing anyone to use or see it unless they want to.
    Moreover, Apple is not the originator of SMB, which has its origins in DOS, was modified by Microsoft in ways to this day not completely documented in any open standards, & must be reverse engineered for interoperability with other OS implementations. Not surprisingly, it must be configured carefully on the server side with this in mind for it to work reliably, which is no easy task since (among other things) its performance, ease-of-use, & security can't all be maximized at the same time. This is hard enough in a pure Windows Server domain environment, much more difficult in a mixed platform one.
    Because of this, it may be premature to blame all the connection anomalies on Leopard and/or Finder's sidebar. A review of the protocols & settings used in your shop's SMB servers' implementation may turn up something helpful here, but that is probably best done by a network specialist familiar with the issues involved.
    As a side note (& by way of an example), SMB incorporates "auto-discovery" too, just in a more limited way compared to Bonjour. Typically, to maintain network security, it is configured to auto-discover only on a client's initial contact with the server, & there are sometimes reliability issues with this mechanism on large networks due to latency, which may explain some of the problems your users are having.
    So, don't be too quick to blame all this on Leopard alone -- as with all network issues, one must look at the entire network to identify causes & their remedies.

  • How do you remove mounted volumes from showing in CS6 InDesign?

    I am encountering an issue since we migrated shares from an X-Serve to a Windows server 2008. A user in InDesign no longer has access to a certain share but that shared volume is still showing up as a mounted volume. InDesign still sees the folder and does not show it as a broken link making it difficutl to tell if the user is linked to the correct images.
    This is no a specific instance to only one user but multiple users.The Finder Can't go there - says he doesn't have rights. The folder at the root of the IMD folde (for instance) at the root of the main folder shows red locked badges when you dont have rights, and thats how the users see it. He can't navigate in there at all but in Adobe InDesign, if he clicks on the linked file stored there and says reveal in finder it takes him into that folder. Something the finder cant do on its own. The users do not have rights to those locations and should not.
    Thank you

    Ivan,
    Here is what liitle I know on this topic.
    The attached doc was created when Designer 7 was released and it has a table of the Acrobat JavaScript APIs and there equivalents, if any, in Designer. According to that doc, app.hideMenuItem() is supported in Designer and there is no Designer JavaScript equivalent.
    My brief look at this matter leads me to believe security constraints since Reader 6.0 have changed the rules.
    I recommend you take a look at trusted functions and context in the Acrobat 9 SDK.
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9/Acrobat9_HTMLHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.ht m?&accessible=true
    That is as far as I got.

  • Kanaka Client unable Mount volume

    I have OES11SP2 on SLES 11 SP3 on which I am running KANAKA ENGINE to mount volumes on MAC Client from servers running under same Tree.
    Created eDirectory user account which have rights on volumes from two servers under the same tree.
    example: 1) abc (volume) under Server1 (Running Kanaka engine)
    2) xyz (volume) under Server2
    Note: Tested AFP connectivity working without issues for both the volumes from MAC OS, also eDirectory users can map both volumes on windows machine with Novell client login.
    Issue is I cannot mount volume from Server2 using KANAKA Client on MAC OS. However Server1(running kanaka engine) can able to mount.
    any help is highly appreciated.

  • Gnome "cannot mount volume"

    Gnome doesn't want to mount my USB pen drive.  I get the following message:
    Cannot mount volume.
    Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied.
    A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to the recipient...
    I have hal,dbus & fam in my DAEMONS and I have added myself to the optical and storage groups.  I have also logged off and on and tried restarting, but I still get this error.

    I am having this same issue. However, I have added myself to both groups and logged out and back in again. I cannot get this to work on either my laptop or my desktop. Any other suggestions?
    **Solved on my laptop: You have to restart dbus.
    Log out of your DE, and go to a console
    /etc/rc.d/dbus restart
    /etc/rc.d/hal restart
    Should work now

  • Cannot mount volume - device offline

    Hi everyone,
    I am trying to setup OSB on a Linux box (CentOS).
    I could configure the tape library and tape drives as explained in the installation/admin guide but could not get the tape volume mounted. It keeps giving the errors:
    can't mount volume in tape1 - device offline
    It seems that the volume is offline. How can we get it online?
    The error log for the tape drive shows:

  • Authorization issue - help request

    Hi guys,
    One of the consultants is having an authorization issue ( He is not abele to run a t-code)

    Please help.
    Here are the details from the SU53 report.

    Please help me guys what need to  be performed.
    Regards,
    Vamsi.

    Hi Vamsi,
    SU53 shows us the last failed authorization for a user. However, it might not only be the failed authorization object failed.
    Hence, "just to learn" , you can use transaction ST01 to enable and run a trace for particular users. Be sure to use in a test environment first, and with proper filters. (for a particular user only).
    Then check-> which auth object is failing.
    RC=4 means a object value is failing.
    RC=12 means an object is missing!
    Check, which tcode is calling that object and this tcode is present in which role. Then.........proceed.
    You can check the SAP documentation on running traces on the help portal of SAP.  I think you will find the answer yourself by troubleshooting more and may be massaging some test roles here and there!
    Likewise, if you are new to security, I would encourage you to start by reading some books on SAP security. Authorizations made easy is a good book to start with.
    Let me know if you have any questions
    EOD for me :P . take care

  • Authorization issue in BI system.

    Hi,
    Having a authorization issue in BI system.
    user trying to run a query in and attempt to drill down by customer, he gets customer details but some of the customers are missing...
    Does the authorization granted in BI system based on customers? Is it a security issue?
    pls help...
    Thanks...

    Hi,
    Please execute the query with your id(developer id who will be having access to all data) first. Check if you are able to see all the customer data. If you are able to see all the data then the user is restricted with some authorizations. ( usually the authorizations are done on sales organization, company codes, plant..etc.. please check how it is in your project...)
    If you are not able to see all the customer data, then check in the infoprovider on which the query is built and do your analysis.
    Check in the roles assigned to the user.
    Hope it helps.

  • ABAP dump on authorization issue

    hello,
    I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this or not.
    I have an ABAP program that was written before I got here that performs the following statement
    <b>OPEN DATASET w_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.</b>
    where w_file is a file on the app server. the users that run this program have no issues.
    I have made a copy of the program to add some additional functionality and when the users run this program, the program is abending with the following error messages when trying to execute the same command stated above
    Runtime Error      OPEN_DATASET_NO_AUTHORITY
    Except.               CX_SY_FILE_AUTHORITY
    I have talking to the security person and he is going to make another role with the authorizations needed to run the program but I am curious as to why the same person can run the one program successfully and my program (which does basically the same thing when it comes to the file processing) abends with the authorization issue.
    thanks in advance for your help

    I believe you can use FM to check if user has sufficient authorization.
    NOTE: authority-check uses PROGRAM NAME, so it looks like your profile should be updated with new program name.
    Here is what help says :
                                                                                    Check file access authorization                                                                               
    Functionality                                                                               
    This function module allow you to check the user's authorization to          
        access files (with the key words OPEN DATASET, READ DATASET, TRANSFER and    
        DELETE DATASET). A check should be performed before opening a file.                                                                               
    The authorization check is performed uwing the authorization object          
        S_DATASET.                                                                               
    Description of function parameters:                                                                               
    o  PROGRAM: Name of the ABAP/4 program that contains the file access. If     
           no program name is specified, the system assumes the current program.                                                                               
    o  ACTIVITY: Access type. The possible values are:                                                                               
    -  READ:              Read file                                           
           -  WRITE:             Change file                                         
           -  READ_WITH_FILTER:  Read file with filter function                      
           -  WRITE_WITH_FILTER: Change file with filter function                    
           -  DELETE:            Delete file                                                                               
    o  FILENAME: Name of accessed file                                                                               
    Example                                                                               
    TYPE-POOLS SABC.                                                                               
    CALL FUNCTION 'AUTHORITY_CHECK_DATASET'

  • Authorization issue after technical upgrade

    We just completed an uprade to BI 7.0 SP 15.  We only want to complete a technical upgrade and use the old security model.
    We have found that when users run queries against multi-providers they aren't authorized.  BEX states that the user doesnt have access.
    Should our old authorizations work with the old model against multi-providers?

    In theory yes ..
    Some Analysis ..
    from the S_RS_COMP
    goto RSECADMIN >Analysis>Execution as User -->enter the user name you are executing the query
    Check box -->with Log option
    select RSRT option
    hit start transaction button ,it should show you the authoriztion errors with authorization objects missed.
    if not
    again RSECADMIN>Analysis>Error Logs-->check with the latest time stamp for that particular user and analyse the authorization issues
    Hope it Helps

    Hi Timothy
    Well it is the correct forum
    When ever your accessing the file system the authorization object S_DATASET is checked.
    This object has Filename, activity and <b>program name</b> as input parameter.
    Best Practice would require you to limit access as much as possible, so my guess is that access only has been given to the original program, and not your new one - that's why your getting the ShortDump.
    You can find the documentation here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas620/helpdata/en/fc/eb3d5c358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm

  • Searches within InDesign Have Stopped Working on AFP Mounted Volumes On OS X 10.9

    I have run into a new problem since using InDesign CC on a Mac running Mavericks, the search function has ceased working on AFP mounted volumes. For example, when placing an image, if I navigate to a pot of images on my server and then tap in part of the file name within the search field there is nothing found, even though the file name I am searching for is there.
    I have spoken to Adobe technical support who said "well I do apologize for your inconvenience however adobe does not support if the file is on the network. We would be happy to help you if there is any issue with Search if the files are located locally". Slightly frustrating answer!
    This issue looks to be related to the Mavericks operating system as I have Macs running OS X 10.8 which are fine, it is only the OS X 10.9 Macs that have this problem. Is anyone else having these issues?

    I have no problem on two Macs running Mac OS X 10.9.2 with InDesign CC 9.2.
    Have you started by restoring your preferences. Here's how:
    Trash, Replace, Reset, or Restore the application Preferences
    If you use the delete folder method, remember that in OS X 10.9, the <Home> library his hidden. In the Finder, hold down the Option key, and choose Go > Library to make it visible.

  • Disk GUID shown at the Failover Cluster Manager instead of the NTFS Mount Volume Name

    Dear Team
    I have built windows 2012 R2 fail over cluster. The sql server 2012 has been installed in cluster mode. When we add share disk for database it showing like General DBs\\?\Volume{665480bd-12d9-11dd-92ea-001cc442e304}\
    Can you Please explain why it is showing in GUID like this. While in 2008 it is showing as
    O:\Miscellaneous\General DBs .
    Also is it normal to have storage configuration in GUID in win2k12 R2 faliover
    cluster.
    We need to have this NTFS mount volume name in our win2012 server. Pl reply
    Thanks

    No problem it happens if you have drive letter conflict too at times.
    So you can even change drive letter now also, but that must be available by that time.
    However you should follow below method:
    1. Disks initialization, formatting, drive letter assignation and grouping for SQL Cluster should be planned and worked out first before sql server installation and testing failover nicely.
    2. Once you are sure that drive letters are proper and failing is happening fine then you can start installing SQL server.
    3. In future too if you assign existing drive letters of sql server to some other disk then same issues will happen.
    So please be careful on this for example if system database disk drivers get changed then what will happen, even sql server will not for you as drive letters will be missing as system  will get adjust with the drive letter without caring about that
    disk drive letter was carrying system db or just user db.
