Hi Mulder, I bought it direct from the shop.... no demo, I think from Mac warehouse or something like that.... maybe when I first bought it I possibly had some teething problems and tech support set it up over the phone with me or something, I guess this could be possible.

Newbie cluster question: where does the admin server live?

Hello, I'm looking at clustering for our application where I work, and so I'm reading through the cluster-related documentation for 11g. I have a sort of an architecture question: where should the admin server be started? Hypothetically speaking, if you have two nodes for your cluster, would the AdminServer run on a 3rd box which sort of stood in front of the two nodes?
Thanks much -

The ideal situation would be for your admin server to be separate from the machines hosting your managed server. This allows you to control access to the admin server, eliminate the performance impact if you have the admin + managed on the same host, and limits impact if youir #1 host fails, etc.
But companies may be unwilling to invest in a distinct (3rd) host just for the admin server, especially if you have multiple environments ( prod, testing, dev, etc. ).
So usually the admin winds up sharing the host with a managed server.

Manage users and privleges is missing in security tab in rep admin 9.5

hi not able to see Manage users and privleges in security tab in rep admin is manage users and privleges in infa 9.5 is shifted to admin console or is it available with both the tools admin console.

Thanks Neil - Problem solved and I´ve saved a couple of new Applescripts for checking and reset in case (and when) this happens again.
Lets hope Apple discover the reason for random changes to file flagging and apply to a future update.
Again, thanks for your quick response.

If your rescue email is not working and you cannot remember even one answer, then you only have one option - call Apple.

No "Admin Roles" or "Capabilities" on the Create User - Security tab

I have created some Admin roles with full Capabilities for an Organisation (other than Top).
However, when I login as "Configurator", and attempt to create a user under the "Accounts" tab, I cannot see any of the "Admin Roles" created under the "Security" tab. In fact, the "Admin Roles" or "Capabilities" list boxes somehow disappear altogether.
Does anyone know what can cause the "Admin Roles" and "Capabililties" list boxes to disappear from this tab?

Are you using IDM version 7.0 and above? If so, it is a security feature introduced by Sun.
An administrator can assign an admin-role to a user only when he/she is designated to be the "assigner" of that role. Here's how you do it:
Go to Security -> Admin Roles tab in the admin console, and click on the role to be assigned
In the form that opens up, click "Add from Search" in the general tab and search/add the desired account.
You would expect configurator to be a default assigner to any admin-role, but even this account needs to be configured to be the assigner for each admin-role.
Hope this helps.

Weblogic 9.2 console - no security tab

I have weblogic 9.2 installed on windows xp. If I open a deployment in the console, there is no tab labeled Security. I have used webex to verify that some colleagues, with the same software, are seeing this tab, but so far I haven't reached a conclusion regarding the differences. Is there an obvious place to look?

Thanks for your contribution. But ... holy mackerel! I went through an extensive rigmarole, successfully creating a new weblogic admin user, then I logged into the console with that user, and ... same issue!
An interesting quirk: if I select my web module, then select testing, and then click the plus button to expand the module ... I suddenly see a fifth tab, called Security. But if I click on that, there is nothing there. If I click on any other tab, the Security tab disappears.

Where is the "Security" tab?

On an older cruzer micro 8 GB device, if I rt click and show properties, there is a security tab, which I can use to limit the number of people who have access to the data on the device. On a recently purchased Cruzer Glide USB flash drive, there is no security tab. I am using Windows 7. Can I get it back? I have sensitive data on the drives , and I do not want any person who logs in while I am away from the computer to gain access. The "sharing" tab just does not seem to do the job.

Ed said:I agree but I insert & extract my USB drives all the time without doing that, what am I missing?Don't you "Eject" them 1st? Error msg comes us saying close all programs & windows. The security tab you are referring to, if I understand this correctly, is a part of drives formatted with NTFS, rather than the standard exFAT or FAT32 formats and in Windows 7 you only have access to the tab from Safe Mode.Thanks for the info regarding "Safe Mode" I will look into that. I will have to also look into the formats on the drives in question. If they are different, that would explain why one has the tab and the others don't.

Built-In Users-group is suddenly gone on folder security tab.

Dear forum-members,
I have got a problem with folder-permissions (acl) on a Windows 2003 Server with Terminal Services (Citrix).
The application "Sybase" is installed on the D-drive (disk). A thrid party application needs Sybase to communicate through the sql.ini with the database. All terminal server users needs read permissions on the Sybase install directory to
use the sql.ini.
Normally every new folder on a server has the Builtin Administrators-group and System account "Full-Control" permissions and the Builtin Users-group had "Read en List" permissions. Now on the Sybase folder only the Builtin Administrators-group
en System account are at the security tab, but
not the Builtin Users-group.
When I manually set the Builtin Users-group with read permissions it okay, but after a while the Builtin Users-group is gone/deleted/removed. There is no signal that a person, proces or action removes the permissions for the Builtin Users-group. I set
Auditing on the folder, but with no result. I know for sure there is no GPO (Group Policy) that removes this group.
For now I have a dirty solution to run a scheduled task every 10 minutes that run xcalcs to set the permissions. A tried a GPO to set the permissions, after a reboot the group policy doesn't apply (only after a gpupdate /force).
Does some one of you has another proper/nice solution to force the read permissions on the Sybase folder for the Builtin Users-group?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings, Sidney

Hi Shaon,
Thank you for your reply.
The 'third party app' is APP-V sequenced and not in production yet, so only some test users are using the app.
I did a test today to use Domain Users instead of Builtin Users, but the same problem. After a reboot only the Builtin Administrators and SYSTEM has permission on the Sybase installation folder and Domain Users (& Builtin Users) were automatically
removed again.
We have 6 terminal (citrix) servers and all of them has the same problem, so it's not server related.
Could it be an issue with the way how Sybase is packaged (it's a silence install through our deployment application)?
Before I do the next test: Will it help to force the rights (replace permissons) from the upper folder to the sub-folder(s)? (force the inheritance)
Greetings, Sidney

Windows 2003 server loses security tab for folders created in OS X

We have a centralised storage system that is running on a Windows 2003 cluster. This server has folders for each department so they can store colaborative work. They can create their own folders and files within their departments folder.
When files are created using a Mac on this service and then the folder properties are viewed under Windows XP or 2003 the security tab seems to be missing. NTFS permissions still exist on the folder as items beneath that are inherriting permissions still have those inheritted permissions applied to them, but the security tab has gone.
This can also mean that Windows users cannot see these folders and therefore the whole idea of a collaborative storage server is lost.
We have investigated this issue as best we can so far and tried copying folders onto the server with whitespace at the end of the folder name to see if this was the problem, it does not appear to cause the issue.
We have also tried copying folders up to the server from a mac using invalid characters \ / * ? " | were all tried, on the server the symbol is simply substituted with a space and the folder works correctly.
We have tried copying a folder with space at the end of its name and a file within to the server and this also works correctly.
The only common factor seems to be that a lot of the folders with a missing security tab have a single space at the end of the folder name, however this does not seem to cause the issue.
One way around the problem is to use the subinacl.exe tool at the command prompt as the server administrator to regain ownership of the folder and then delete it, however this is not a solution for folders that contain data. This workaround was from the microsoft article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320081 in step 6.
If anyone has any idea what may be causing this on the Mac side it would be good to know.

We have narrowed down the problem and found the culprit.
The issue is only repeatable on 10.4.x (we used 10.4.11 for testing, but it may affect earlier versions as well)
10.4.11 Local folder created with trailing space in the name, then copied to the Windows 2003 server = loss of security tab on this folder
10.4.11 existing folder on the server has a trailing space added to the folder name = loss of security tab on this folder
10.4.11 existing folder on the server has the trailing space REMOVED from the end of the folder name = security tab returns with permissions in tact
10.5.x Local folder created with trailing space in the name, then copied to the Windows 2003 server = no problem
10.5.x existing folder on the server has a trailing space added to the folder name = no problem
10.5.x existing folder (created under 10.4.11) with trailing space in the folder name has the space removed = Error code 43, unknown error occured
Also interesting is that the illegal characters for Windows \ / * : ? " | in the folder name prevent the folder being copied to the Windows 2003 server in 10.4.11, but are allowed in 10.5.x - all expect the : which is an illegal character in OS-X as well. None of these illegal characters cause issues on the Windows 2003 server as they are simply translated to a space.
The solution would be either as AJ mentioned to purchase Thursby AdmitMac or to upgrade all the users to 10.5.x (which I'm sure would make Apple happier!)

How to delegate the users creation permission on OU in active directory using security tab

this isn't really related to GP at all, it's a question for a DS forum:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=winserverDS
You need to grant additional permissions - user creation is not enough, on it's own...
Why not use the Delegation of Control Wizard?

Is there any way to get the security tab to show when going to a website as in previous versions of firefox?

Before I updated to Firefox 4, I used to be able to see the security bar on the bottom right telling me whether it was secure (x-d out in red or not) before I logged into a site, purchased something, etc. I know the bottom tab has been brought to the top but I no longer see that bar/icon which bother me. Is there any way to get that security tab (that little gold lock symbol) to show again for every website?

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button
If you want a padlock, you can use the Padlock add-on in conjunction with the site identity button - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/padlock-icon/

Can you help me with problems from latest update of Safari and ITunes. I can no longer delete cookies as I once did, because the security tab no longer displays the show cookies option. Can anyone please help?

I can no longer show or delete cookies from my MacBook Pro, since installing the latest update of Safari and Itunes.. Previously, I went to the security tab and clicked on the show cookies option, then opted to delete.. That option has now diappeared and a completely different security tab appears. The tab does not show a cookies option anywhere.
Also, I can no longer see a list of my software applications without opening system profiler.
Sure would appreciate your help. Thanks.

Safari's cookies is broken, either intentionally or it's a bug.
You can search the forums for
safari cookies lion
and turn up plenty of threads.
If you need control over your browser cookies and other aspects of your web browser, I suggest you install Firefox.
