Security question about Admin transaction: BDLS

Hello Experts,
i have a question regarding BDLS transaction: Conversion of Logical Systems. My former supervisor gave me the task to remove the BDLS transaction from all user profiles because of its critical matter. It should not be performed on Productive systems.
As i checked SAP Notes and documentations, i found this line:
"It is not possible to convert logical system names in a productive systemu201D
Based on common sense, it is not possible to perform the transaction in the Productive systems and not because of Authorizations but because SAP Standard it is so defined.
Do you have any experience with this? There are a few people that have this Transaction in our Systems but if its not possible to perform it, then i dont need to remediate it.
Thank you, for your feedback,
Cheerz,
david

Were there any condition given on the same? If so then check if the same satisfy in your production system or not. However I am in favour of removing the transaction anyway. I am not so familiar with this transaction but there might be many other way (may be program, FM etc) through which some undone might be done.

If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Peter: A question about XA transactions across weblogic servers

Peter,
          I just read your article about "javax.transaction.HeuristicMixedException"
          problem on WDJ.
          In the article, you said this case applies to WLS 6.1.
          I'd like to know does this applies to WLS 7.0?
          If not, what is the mechanism in WLS7.0 to cope with such problem?
          Thanks,
          William


William,
          The same arguments that I ran through in the article apply to WLS 7. The
          solution is diferent, however since WLS 7 has no "system" user per se.
          Take a look at http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs70/adminguide/managetx.html#1050458
          for the description of what you need to configure to get cross domain
          transactions with WLS 7.0
          Regards,
          Peter.

Security question about opening PDFs in Reader as opposed to Standard or Professional

Our ITC wants us to open all downloaded PDFs in Acrobat Reader 9 as opposed to Acrobat 7.0 Standard. We currently have both. We download a lot of PDFs and frequently need to Reduce File Size or extract pages, etc. I am hoping to upgrade my Acrobat 7.0 Standard to Professional 9.
Is there a valid security reason to always open first in Reader? Based on what I have read Acrobat Reader 9 and Professional 9 both had security risks and it is my understanding that a patch has been released today.
Is there a security risk still for Acrobat Professional 9 and is there a security risk for Acrobat Standard 7.0? Does requiring us to download, save and open PDFs in Reader 9 first make sense from a security standpoint?
Thanks very much for any input.

I don't remember any claims that Reader was safer than Acrobat. I use Acrobat exclusively and Adobe recommends against installing both due to conflicts (they use a lot of the same files). The biggest factor to be careful about is to not open any attachments or applications that may be built in. These can be put in the PDF and both Acrobat and Reader open such tools. I would tend to question the basis for the IT folks decision, particularly based on the Adobe recommendation and problems that it creates. At least that is my opinion.

Question about VF03 transaction / billing document

on VF03 transaction, does Billing document number need to be always invoice number?
Please clarify.
Thanks,
Krishen

In most scenarios yes.
You create a billing document and it generates a invoice number. You can also say billing invoice number.
Hope you are taking about the billing & invoice in your system. The invoice number in the bill from your vendor will not be found in VF03 in your system.

Question about 'copy transactions'

In the standard training book, there is a saying that 'When you copy transactions, the system produces a copy an ddisplays it for processing. When the copied transaction is saved, the document flow is not updated, that is, the copied transaction has no connection to the orginal transaction.'
But how can I see the original transaction in the document flow?
Regards,
Anders

Hi,
The feature you are talking about here is known as Copy Control. You can get the whole reference of it from the following link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/5b/e4f53911cac83ce10000000a114084/frameset.htm
You will get the subsequent and preceding document which will be highlighted to show you the difference.
Hope this helps.

Question about WLE transaction

Hi,
I have develop a system using WLE 5.1 for Corba C++,the database is oracle
8.1.6.
I developed two corba servers: ServerA and ServerB,both of them connect to
the database using XA but not the same openinfo.
Now,one method of ServerA "updateA" need call one method of ServerB
"updateB" as a corba client, both "updateA" and "updateB" update the
database using XA.
I want to ask can I write the code:
"tp_begin();
ServerB.updateB;
tp_commit();" in ServerA's "updateA" method?
If I implement the method like that , When a remote corba client to call the
serverA's method ,I write the code:
"tp_begin();
ServerA.updateA;
tp_commit();"
Is it nested transaction?

See my answer in the weblogic.developer.interest.weblogicenterprise newsgroup.

Security question about hosting multple websites at ~/Sites

Hi All, I wish to host multiple websites from my server running Mac OS X Server 10.4. I just wanted to know if there are any security risks involved in having sites running from the path ~/Sites. ie /Users/username/Sites/ I am running the machine as a standalone server with port forwarding from my router. Other: Running PHP 4 and MySQL 4 aswell. Is this the wrong way to host sites? If so, do you have any suggestions for other paths that may be more secure? Would it be more secure to host them from the default location /Library/WebServer/Documents? I have FTP set up so that authenticated users see home directory only and have set up users home directories as /Users/username/Sites in the workgroup manager. Is there a better way to set this whole thing up? Am I screwing it from the start? Thanks in advance...

If the user directories are just for hosting sites, the user's won't be using them to store their stuff with an expectations of privacy, there's no inherent insecurity doing it this way. If the users were using their home directories, then it may come as a shock that the read and browse permissions have to be turned on so that the web server can get to the Sites folder to serve pages.
MySQL is a popular database. I would venture to say that most database insecurity is the fault of the DBA, not the database itself.
PHP scripts are listed in the security ezines a lot. I don't know whether PHP is inherently insecure, so simple that people who really don't know how to program can program with it or other reasons.
OSX server isn't an OS I'd trust exposed to the Internet. Apple's done things that make it at least very hard, if not impossible (I haven't really sat down and fought it) to lock it down well.

Question about CLMM transaction

Hi All,
More than 1.000 Functional locations are sitting with an incorrect Attribute/Characteristic of “Indoor” instead of “Outdoor”, would it be possible to have these updated in bulk with CLMM transaction?.
Could anyone write here an example of use of the transaction CLMM, i.e., trying to change a Functional Location (or equipment) Characteristic?.
Thank you so much!
Regards

Go to CLMM. Click on Set and Change Values push button.
Select the class type in "Header", class in "Assignments" tab & characteristics in "CHARS" tab.
Click on "Target Objects" tab. Click Find Object push button.
By giving that characteristics value as INDOOR, click on Find in Initial Class.
It will list all the Functional locations. Select all the locations.
Do Test Mass Change initially before doing Carry out a Mass Change which has actual effects.

Question about Http Transaction in Servlet

If I want to use the http connection to send some data to the servlet.
But not all the data are encoded in English (maybe some are in Chinese), then how can I set do it?
This is because when I use request.getParameter("some parameter name") and the value of this parameter is in Chinese. Then the string is not properly encoded.
Do I need to set the CharacterEncoding to support unicode?

First make sure that data you are sending over is encoded in UTF-8 by setting the encoding of the html form to utf-8.
Then is your servlet do that following
before getting any parameters form the request object call
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
then get the request parameters as usual.
request.getParameter("parameter name");
That should do it. By the way this should work with any character encoding just make sure they are consistent between you html form and what you set in your servlet.

What do you do if you forgot the answers to the security questions??

I forgot the answers to the security questions for my apple ID.
I recently received an iPad Mini for my birthday. ( Don't spam the comments saying happy late birthday, we're not here for a party. )
I want to be able to purchase apps and music from it, but I can't because I forgot the answers to the security questions for my apple ID.
I've looked around on this website for help, but nothing was very helpful. I know I need a rescue e-mail adress, and I have 2 linked to my Apple ID.
It ( The fourm I used ) says when I go into my apple ID and click "Passwords and Security", that there should be an option to send an e-mail to my rescue e-mail adress(es).
The first time I tried, no option.
I tried again, and still, no option.
I tried that so many times I lost count, and all resulted in a failure.
I reseted my security questions about a year ago, I'm not sure if it's that, or if I'm a total idiot and messed something up.
Well, Um.. Seriously. Please help.
What do you do if you forgot the anwers to the security questions? - BrilliantNarwhal

The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account - the two that you refer to will be alternate email addresses, not a rescue email address (you can only have one on an account).
You won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
