Setting permissions for scanner use

Hello,
My USB scanner is a Canon Lide 35 and it had been working perfectly in arch. After a recent update (don't know exactly which because do not use scanner so often), the device is detected and device is set in /dev/bus/usb/005/00x. The problem is that the permissions are not set correctly, I assume by udev?, and my normal user cannot use the scanner because the device remains as owned by root.root and not 0664, group=scanner, as specified in the sane udev rules (/etc/udev/rules.d/53-sane.rules). The rules file is with the new syntax, i.e., ATTRS instead of SYSFS and so forth. My user belongs to the "scanner" group. I have the feeling it is something related with the udev rules but Im not sure what. Here is the relevant line:
# Canon CanoScan LiDE 35 | Canon CanoScan LiDE 40 | Canon CanoScan LiDE 50
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2213", MODE="0664", GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"
The latest update where kernel stuff and udev stuff were updated resulted in:
kernel-headers-2.6.24.3-1 udev-119-1...
Any help greatly appreciated,
Regards,
Felipe.

It appears that udev has problems with rules matching by idVendor when system is up and running but everything is ok if device was online during boot. Please check out this bug http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9935 and comments. If You have the same problem then please vote for this bug and/or post a comment.
Thank You.

Password security - set permissions for different users

I am using Abobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
In the HELP menu, there is a security section in the contents, In the overview, it states the following:
"Each security method offers a different set of benefits. However, they all allow you to specify encryption algorithms, select the document components to encrypt, and set permissions for different users."
I would like to know how you can set permissions for different users using Password Security.
I am the only one in the company who has Acrobat 9 Pro and all others have Adobe Reader 8.
I have created a PDF file in Acrobat 9, this file is accessible to anyone with Abobe Reader. I would like to set different permissions for different users. For example, i would like certain individuals to print the document and other individuals to not be allowed to print. Can this be acheived using Password Security?
Many Thanks

Webserver - setting permissions for Custom Sites

Quick q on setting permissions for custom sites default. Default home for custom (non-default) web site is:
/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/
and whatever subdirectory you stipulate, e.g. MyServer - or whatever.
Server sets this as owner:
drwxrwxr-x 7 root admin 238 Mar 8 15:34 CustomSitesDefault
drwxrwxr-x 16 root admin 544 Mar 8 15:38 Default
For security, shouldn't the permissions and ownership be changed - to some webamin user WITHOUT root privs? Or will this break Lion Server? Thanks.

Hello,
One option would be to disable the automatic Project Site Sync in the User Sync Settings Page, create custom permission levels and groups on your SharePoint Project site template(s) to meet your requirements - make use of default SharePoint groups where
possible, save the new template(s) and attach the new templates to the EPTs. Then develop a Project Server event handler that adds the users to the Project Site on the Publish event (or what ever event you like). The project owner one is simple - just add
the project owner to the new SharePoint group, project members - just read the project team and add those users and the visitors just add a domain AD group (Domain Users for example) to that group.
Default Project Server sync settings / site permissions can be seen here:

Why can't Firefox set permissions for Snow Leopard Server Web-Site Wikis

I've established a web-site for collaboration of planning for a state-wide NGO and a local citizens-government oversight commission.
I'm using Snow Leopard Server v10.6.4, to drive the web-site, which includes the use of wikis.
In creating a wiki and setting permissions, I find that I cannot set permissions for users or groups to 'read only' from the default 'read & write' while using Firefox. However, I CAN set them to 'read only' using Safari. And, once the permission has been modified in Safari, THEN it can be modified in Firefox.

Solution found at http://michaeljin.wordpress.com/2010/01/05/locked-out-of-mac-os-x-server/
It’s blog update time! Updates have been a little scarce lately, been super busy with getting trophies on PS3
Anyway, recently encountered the following with a Mac mini server running Snow Leopard Server:
Despite being able to ARD / Screenshare the Mac mini, I was unable to get any further than the login window. Authentication credentials are obviously valid. No weird access permissions have been set. However, the weird thing was, I can connect to the server via Server Admin tools (from another Mac) and all other services were running without a hitch.
After much head scratching it turns out to be a sACL (Service Access Control List) issue.
This thread solved the mystery!
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1654864
To save you the trouble, I’ll lay it out here. I cannot take credit for this, but Randall can!
Open Server Admin on a computer (any), and connect with the local admin to the machine.
Select the server and authenticate.
Select Settings, then go to Access. You’ll want to make sure that Login Window and SSH have the local admin account listed if you select the option to “Allow only these users”. For now, I would suggest making sure all services have “Allow all users and groups” selected.
If (as in my case) it was set to Allow All in the first place, simply toggle the settings – back and forth.
Save.
Try logging in again… should be a good one!

SAPCAR: can not set permissions for /EPS/in/SIGNATURE.SMF

We are running SUM 1.0 SP10 on IBM i with V7R1 to put EHP6 and SP's on an ERP 6.0 system. Phase PREP_PRE_CHECK/SCANDIR_EPS0 repeatedly ends with multiple errors that SAPCAR: can not set permissions for /EPS/in/SIGNATURE.SMF file. We tried increasing the sidADM and R3GROUP authority to the file, but it changes them back and ends with a different number of errors each time, see example:

Hi,
We had the same issue, and in my opinion it is caused by the parallelisation of sapcar during SUM phase PREP_PRE_CHECK/SCANDIR_EPS0
I did see several parallel SAPCAR jobs running during this phase.
So what happens when one job extracts SIGNATURE.SMF at the same time another job tries to finalize its extraction by setting the permissions for /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/SIGNATURE.SMF?
It can happen that permissions are being set at the same time another sapcar yust deletes this file to begin extracting.
Since we had 146 SAR archives that needed to be extracted, a retry allways ended up in 4 to 12 conflicts.
What did do the trick was adding
/sapcar/extrcact_parallel = 0
to the file
../SUM/abap/bin/SAPup.par
Just as Christoph Langer suggested.
We had to restart the whole phase, a repeat was not enough to solve the problem.

Setting PREFIX for DIMENSION_TABLE using OMB Scripting

I'm trying all day to find a way to set PREFIX for DIMENSION_TABLE
using OMB script without success and I'm a little confused now.
First of all Scripting Reference does not mention about PREFIX
property so maybe there is no way to achieve what I want. Consequently
it would mean that GUI interface is "stronger" than OMB Scripting.
Secondly I don't understand why when I issue following command in OMB
Plus:
OMBDESCRIBE CLASS_DEFINITION 'DIMENSION_TABLE' GET PROPERTY_DEFINITIONS
I get nothing (empty output, no errors) and when I execute:
OMBDESCRIBE CLASS_DEFINITION 'DIMENSION_TABLE' GET PROPERTIES
(STEREOTYPE, IS_ABSTRACT, DESCRIPTION)
I get:
class false {}
First result suggests that there are no properties for DIMENSION_TABLE
and second proves that there are at least three.
Is there some type/properties inheritance here?
Can someone explain me this and tell how can I:
1. find all valid types (I would like to set prefix for LEVEL,
LEVEL_ATTRIBUTE, etc. too)
2. find all properties for these types
regards
Tomasz Gajewski

You misunderstood me. I don't want to rename DIMENSION_TABLE. When creating DIMENSION_TABLE with gui I set NAME and PREFIX for each DIMENSION_TABLE and LEVEL.
PREFIX for level is used later during deploy to distinguish attributes from different levels.
Example. If I have a level named LEVEL_NAME with prefix LN and an attribute of it named ID than table generated for this contains column LN_ID.
When I create DIMENSION_TABLE using OMB Script prefix is set same as name (default behaviour that I can't change) and it is to long to use.
Scripting Reference doesn't mention about PREFIX property. Should I assume that the only way to change these values are through OWB GUI?

UNIX command to set permissions for a "public" partition?

I have a bunch of Core Duo (1.83) iMacs running 10.4.11. We have the drive partitioned so that students can save/store stuff locally for myriad reasons.
With infrequent regularity, the read/write permissions on the partition get munged up and staff have to reset permissions (using the Get Info window).
I would DEARLY love to use ARD 3.2 to send a UNIX command to set permissions so that EVERYONE has access to EVERYTHING on the partition regardless of who has logged in. We have cleverly named this partition "Scratch" 'cuz, well, you know, that's what scratch drives are for, yes?

What I was hoping for was the ACTUAL chmod command so that I could just cut and paste it.
Sorry not to be sufficiently specific. If you'd said that initially, I could have provided a more direct answer. I didn't know if you were even aware of chmod, and lots of people when they learn about it don't want to go anywhere near a chmod command, so I posted only to the general description first so you knew what you were getting into. Templeton has you covered for the specific command.
For future questions, the more specific you can be about what you're aware of/have tried and what it is you're looking for, the more precise folks here can be in their answers.
Regards.

How to set permissions for files created by Windows on OS 10.8 volume

I am in process of upgrading from an iMac with OS 10.6 to an iMac with OS 10.8. In my office network, I store all files on my iMac and let the Windows PCs act as workstations to read/write onto the Mac. (It's simpler to have all files centralized in one location, and only have to be concerned about backing up one volume.)
When I had OS 10.4 and OS 10.6 any newly created file saved by the Windows PCs onto the Mac could be opened by the Mac.
But with OS 10.8, I can not open newly created files from Windows. The file permissions for the newly created files from the Windows PCs are:
PCUser = read/write; Everyone = no access.
What do I need to do so that newly created files from the Windows PC (currently Windows 7) can be opened by the Mac, without having to use Get Info to reset the permissions each time?

You could try adding this Access Control Entry (ACE) to the folders you let them save to:
sudo chmod -R +a "accountinggroup allow delete,chown,list,search,add_file,add_subdirectory,delete_child,file_inherit,directory_inherit" /Path/to/topmost/folder
You first need to create a group for all the sharing people you want to have access to that folder, if you don't already have one. In the example, "accountinggroup" is the group, so change that to whatever you want to use.
The ACE allows them full access to the files in the folders. If you want to limit that, remove the option (such as delete).
You create Groups in Users & Groups System Preference just like creating a new user. Just change the account type to Group.
If you want a GUI to do the settings, try Sandbox. It's got a few glitches in the Interface, but it seems to write the ACL correctly. One glitch is selecting the Group or User. I had just a list of Continuing in the popup menu. I typed in the Group name I wanted and it worked. Some errors pop up as you traverse the file hierarchy, but you can dismiss them.
Here is an old hint, which gives a little background, and some other options: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20090219133314985
The Server tools would allow you to set this up more easily, but if this is all you need as the server, I don't know if it is worth it.

Unable to set permissions for archiving

Using G5 iMac, OS 10.4.11 with iDVD 6. I have followed the instructions 1 thru 3 in help for setting permissions to archive a dvd project without any problem. However the last instruction is "Click Apply to enclosed items". I can not find anywhere to do this. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Regards from Ireland.

You are right. There is no place to "click apply to enclosed items". Just ignore that instruction, as it seems to be unnecessary. You already set your permissions by doing steps 1-3.

How to set permissions for folder?

Dear all,
How can iset permissions for a particular folder?
I am creating new folders for new users who access the program.
Is there any way yo set permissions so that no one is able to edit the name of the folder ?
Thanks,
Ritesh

Hi Ritesh,
Thanks for the post and I hope your well today.
You can programmatically change the Read Only and Hidden Status of a file
in labview using the DOS prompt from LabVIEW - called
System.Execvi.
Here are some links regarding the DOS commands you can use,
http://www.ss64.com/nt/subinacl.html
http://www.ss64.com/nt/cacls.html
So I beleive you could find a DOS command which could alter the editting properties of the name..
Another way to prevent the user altering the file would be to change
the user permission's in windows.. but it could affected the code and
most IT departments would not allow this.
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards

Set Desname for PDF using Oracle Applications

We are running Oracle Applications 11i, 8i database on a Unix box and use windows 2000, internet explorer, acrobat 6.0 to run, and view the reports.
I just finished redesigning a Oracle report to output to PDF instead of printing on a preprinted form.
The user has requested that the output file (Report) be saved to a specific directory on a server that is on the windows platform.
The report is being run from the concurrent manager inside of Oracle Applications, which seems to be over writing my desname that is specified in my report (rdf). Our current workaround is that the user opens the file in acrobat and save it to the desired directory, which they have to set manually for each session.
Is there a way to run a report on UNIX and output the report to a windows directory?
Thanks in advance...

There is a better workaround than opening an saving on desktop...I have never tried this but have an idea...that would work 100%.
The standard configuration of apps 11i is that the output file is placed in $APPLCSF/out and its on the Unix Box...but if u have apps running on NT environemnt then just share the file system of $APPLCSF with the desktop...Pretty simple....
If apps is running on Unix then u need to install software like Samba on Unix so that the desktop will be able to share the file system of unix on desktop....
Try it out...
Best of luck

HP 6300 all in one can't set up for wireless use

can't set up for wireless use

That is because the printer does not support wireless connectivity to a router. You can with an optional Bluetooth adapter to one computer wireless. However since this has an Ethernet connection you can connect it to your router via this or you can use the below information to convert your Ethernet wired printer to wireless.
Connect wireless printer anywhere, convert from wired, bypass failed radio, add WPA2 security.

Change/Set permissions for specific application?!

I have at least one application that always enables GPS although it isn't needed --> more power consumption, I don't know why it is doing this. Additionally I have some applications I don't want to have access to the internet (at least if I'm not connected to Wifi).
On the other hand I have a java application that should have access to GPS and mobile data without asking every time for the permission.
Where/How can I achieve this? Why have some applications always to ask when others have permissions for things they don't need for proper function?
PS: N8 with Belle

Hi AUTxRemoteC,
According to the best of my knowledge you can only access suite settings and change them according to your preferences for certain applications only. To be able to do so, go to Menu> Settings> Installations> Already Installed the open it. From there, you can only change specific application settings and I know mostly java applications use this method. To check on which applications that you can access and change the settings place your finger to the desired application and hold it and when you see suite settings then you can change it settings. Usually when you hold to an application there is view details and delete but when you see the extra option that is suite settings then open suite settings and change them to your preferences.
I hope that it helps you.

Permissions for software use in managed account

I have developed educational software that I cannot access through a managed account in 10.4 and 10.3. When installed in 10.4, I can access it from an admin account, but in a managed account, I get a message saying I do not have permission. In System Preferences>Accounts>Managed Account>ParentalControls>Finder&System>Applications, the software is not included in the list, but clicking Locate lets me click it from a list but the message comes up that the software "...does not work with the limitations you have selected." I do not see where I selected any limitations except to make the account managed. In 10.3, I went into SystemPreferences>Accounts>Managed Account and the list of software to assign permissions in managed account (Limitations) has a place to check a box in front of the software, but the box does not stay checked after trying unsuccessfully to open the software. I use PackageMaker as my installer software and have checked all the permissions for read/write/execute (0777) for owner, group, and others. However, when I go into the installed software's GetInfo Ownership & Permissions and the owner is the managed account, the pull-downs are grey and disabled. The same happens when I merely drag/drop the software into the Applications folder.

..." I get a message saying I do not have permission"...
That message really annoys me because it is an example of a poorly worded (misleading) dialogue - the problem has nothing to do with unix "permissions". It just means the app isn't in the list of applications approved by the "admin" for use in the managed account.
If you are the developer, make sure you have given your app a unique 'CFBundleIdentifier' or else it likely won't be possible to add the programme to 'mcx_settings', meaning it won't work in a "managed" account.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300842
http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2004/qa1373.html
If the app isn't a "package", give it a unique "creator" code there is probably some procedure somewhere about figuring out what is allowed or what has already been taken, but I'm not a developer so I can't give you any more details...

Error setting permissions for emwebsite during install

Fisrt I am new to Oracle and this is my first attempt at installing or using an Oracle product. I am installing Oracle 9i standard edition onto a Redhat 7.3 server. At the 88% completion mark the install script fails with the following error (from the log):
Exception thrown from action: copyExpandedGroup

1. How severe is an Exception Severity 2? Can I safetly ignore it?
2. When veiwing the /home/oracle/OraHome1/bin/ directory the file emwebsite(.html?) is not present. I assume that this is why the permissions can't be set. Can I just import the file from another location or from the .jar files and continue?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I forgot to post my code:
