Set Password Policy For System Administrator Account in UCCE Servers

Hi All,
We want to setup a password policy ( expires in 30 days) for the local administrator account in all our UCCE servers.
We found that the all the UCCE services are running in local system account except logger and distributor( these services are running in domain user account).
Is it a supported configuration ? Are there any impacts with this setting ?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Thanks and Regards,
Thammaya

Hi,
what is the UCCE (~ ICM) version? Is there OS hardening applied?
By the way, yes, if you mean the local "administrator" account, you can do whatever you want to do with it, provided you don't lock yourself out - this should not happen, naturally, having all ICM servers in the domain and you can always use the domain admin (or a user belonging to the domain admins group).
By the way, I don't really see the meaning of having a local administrator account being enabled. :-)

    Running MAC OS X 10.5.6, Safari 3.2.1. Safari will open and freeze, saying "GO TO Website: " in the site bar. No Safari controls work and I have to force quit Safari. All other apps work fine, and Safari itself works fine with other accounts on the same computer - ie general user, and I created a new administrator account which works. Can I delete the original computer administrator account and use a new one? Is there a simple account setting that I can fix - anyone seen this one before? mike

  • Help needed - setting password policies for different types of accounts

    Hello,
    We have a situation where we have different types of users created on a solaris server. We have regular users, admins, functional accounts and device accounts. Of course solaris does not differentiate between regular user and other types, i think. The default password policy applies to all the users on the server. I want to configure different policy for different types of user accounts. Is it possible? The difference between the accounts on our side is
    Regular user accounts - 8 digit numbers ( 00667265) - expire password every 90 days
    Functional accounts - 8 digits starting with F ( F0253466) - do not expire, but password length must be 10-12 and complex
    Device Accounts - 8 digits starting with Z ( Z2367249) - do not expire, but password length must be 12 and complex - like upper case, lower case, number, special chars etc.
    Is it possible to set up different password policies, is so how?

    The password expiration policy is pretty easy, it can be set on a per account basis when the account is created. I'm not aware of a simple way to define a complexity policy for groups of accounts but the policy is enforced using pam, so you should be able to write a pam module which would enforce your complexity policy. The pam manual page would be a reasonable starting point for learning about pam.

  • Pavilion dm4 Asking for an administrator account and its password. What can I do? I

    It keeps asking for an administrator account. It needs a password as well! It won't let me go beyond that screen and if I press cancel it will shut the computer. I cannot access my home screen!

    Try entering a wrong password- or simply leaving it blank- and tap Enter key. After 3 times it should give you a disabled code. Post the code.

  • Different Password Policy for Different User Groups in ACS 4.2

    Hi All,
    Can some one provide a solution for the below requirement?
    We do have ACS 4.2 appliance managing firewalls of different clients. The users are common i.e, helpdesk administrators. One of the client came up with setting different password policy for managing their devices i.e, the client wants to have min 15 characters as password length. We do have currently 8 characters as min password length. Can we change the password policy to min 15 characters only for managing the firewalls of this client whereas for all other client firewalls we feel better to have 8 characters as min password length?
    It seems that these password policies are global & affects all the users.
    This is something like, having two sets of password (for each user) policy depending on the client which he is going to manage.
    For my knowledge, i think that this is not possible. But, thought to cross-check with experts!
    -Jags.

    Hi jags,
    Yor're correct. Password policy on ACS will affect all internal user. We can't create different password policies for diferent clients/connections/set_of_users
    Password validation options apply only to user passwords that are stored in the ACS internal database. They do not apply to passwords in user records in external user databases; nor do they apply to enable or admin passwords for Cisco IOS network devices.

  • Query on Password Policy Options in a Account policy

    Hi,
    The "Password Policy Options" section of Account policy has inputs "Password Provided by" whose options are generated and User.
    What is the meaning of these options? Does it mean the when the "generated" option is selected then the user does not have to type in the password for a new user? Because, I selected the option "generated" but still get the "password" fields in the new user creation form? shouldn't the password be automatically generated?
    Thanks!

    Any solution found for this? I have the same issue.

  • How to disable password expiration for the administrator?

    Hello
    is it possible to disable the password expiration for the administrator? For all other users the password should expire after 90 days but not for user administrator.
    How would this look like with LDAP integration? I assume that user administrator is not replicated to LDAP and exists only in the local UME database, thus it would work like without LDAP. Or is my assumption wrong?
    Thank you in advance for your answers.
    Best Regards
    WB

    Hello Harikiran,
    thanks for your answer.
    Yes I found the setting in VA:
    Global Configuration > server > services > UME provider >
    ume.logon.security_policy.password_expire_days
    or in Configtool:
    Global Server Configuration > services > com.sap.security.core.ume.service >
    ume.logon.security_policy.password_expire_days
    But for me it sounds that this will apply then for all users that are managed in UME, not only for the administrator. Are you sure that this is only for the administrator?
    What is with the users database table in WEB AS Java? Does somebody know the name of this table?

    I fixed it by changing the way my InitialDirContext is created.
    Previously I was using:
    InitialDirContext ctx = oracle.ldap.util.jndi.ConnectionUtil.getDefaultDirCtx(hostname, portNum, adminName, adminPass);
    Now I'm using:
    Hashtable env = new HashTable();
    env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
    env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://" + hostname + ":" + portNum);
    env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, adminName);
    env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, adminPass);
    InitialDirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);

  • How to set password expiration for EBS users

    how to set password expiration for EBS users .
    Regards .

    Please follow below steps:-
    This is available starting in RUP4.
    The script to expire all passwords in the fnd_user table is $FND_TOP/patch/115/sql/AFCPEXPIRE.sql.
    It can be executed from SQL*Plus or as a Concurrent Program: sqlplus -s APPS/ @AFCPEXPIRE.sql
    or Submit concurrent request: CP SQL*Plus Expire FND_USER Passwords
    This script sets the fnd_user.password_date to null for all users which causes all user passwords to expire.The user will need to create a new password upon the next login.
    Thanks,
    JD

  • How can I set OIM password policy for OID Users.

    Hi,
    For me the target resourec is OID. When I create users in OIM, they get provisioned to OID. Their password also gets stored in OID.
    Now, I have a password policy in OIM. In that policy, the password exipration day is set to 28 days. After 28 days, the user's password will expire in OIM. Is there any way that password will also expire in OID too, so that user will not be able to login in OID?
    Thanks in advance.

    You need to do the following.
    1. Find the attribute in OID that determines the disable date.
    2. Add a field to your provisioning process definition form.
    3. Using a pre-populate adapter, use an input of your oim user account expiration date, and convert that to the format OID uses.
    4. Update your lookup for provisioning attributes to include this new field to map the field name to the OID attribute.
    5. Create an "Updated" task for this field so that when it gets changed, the new value is pushed to OID.
    6. Create a user form trigger value for the field that maps to the oim user account expiration field. For this trigger, add a task to your oid provisioning process that does the same tasks as your pre-populate adapter to determine the new date value and pass it to the field on the process form.
    Now when the OIM expiration date changes, this value will be passed to OID, and also when the account is first created.
    Does this work for you?
    -Kevin

  • I can't remember the password for my administrator account!!

    I can't remember the password to the administrator account on my laptop.  I don't have a recovery disk either.  How can I reset my password?  I don't care if I have to do a complete reboot and lose any info.

    Hi,
    You should be able to do this without losing any data - try using a password reset utility such as the free application on the link below.
