Sudoers and sudo installation config questions

Hello, I am not sure if this is the right forum. I will try asking this anyway. I am trying to configure, install sudoers on a single system. I am not sure how to do that. do I need to install a Package on my Solaris 9 machine. Any info is appreciated

Go to sunfreeware and get the latest copy of the sudo package and just install it. The sudoers file will be in /usr/local/etc/ Edit it with /usr/local/sbin/visudo.

SSL VPN Full and Split Tunnel Config Question

I am Beta testing SSLVPN on an IOS router. The question I have is this:
Is it possiable to have slit and full tunnel configs. It seems that once you create your context and default profile that is all you have either split or full. The books say you can use Radius and assign different profiles but, I would like to give the users a choice (like in the VPN3000 .pcf) of either split or full depending on where they are working from.

The below is an example using the ASA - but the principle remains the same:-

PackageMaker and Software Installs - Newbie Questions

I understand from using Remote Desktop and from the forums that you can custom create install packages for Macs on a LAN. I would just like to understand what the limitations are, what the simplified process for creating them is etc.
We use disk images for building machines but updating the 30 machines for software updates etc is a pain in the current format (going to each machine).
Would the process be to install the software on the default image, select the components for install, create package and put out via ARD? Would this work and install any software package, place items in the dock etc.
Am I over estimating the abilities of ARD and Package maker or on the right lines. Just after speeding things up etc
We have ARD 3.1, mixture of G4 Dual 500, 867 and 1,27s (running 10.3.9) and MacPro 3GHz (10.4.8) and an Xserve on 10.4.7
Many thanks

For more complex installs we use loggen to take a snapshot of the installed files.
While at Macworld this year researching tools for distribution like this, I discovered that JAMF Software had released their Composer application as a separate purchase/download from their entire Casper Suite. It's a GUI for diff so it will take a snapshot, let you install all your software and then take another snapshot and build a .dmg or .pkg for you. We absolutely had to be able to install "critical" Microsoft Office updates for all my Macs at work and we simply couldn't "touch" all the machines to run the Office Updater, so we had to find a tool like this. I've been messing around with it for about two weeks and there are a couple of issues I have with it, but we're currently pushing out Office 2004 updates now without any trouble.

Try starting up with your Snow Leopard DVD and see if the disk can be repaired. Once you are at the installer screen go to the Utilities Menu and choose Disk Utility and choose repair disk. You might also want to try Diskwarrior.
Hope this helps.

How to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.co ?

how to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.conf?

mawch wrote:how to install drivers for ati radeon 3200?and how to config xorg.conf?
Hello
I am using ati hd 3200 which is integrated with my motherboard. If you are using arch you can download & install through pacman. The package is named like catalyst*. You can install them by issuing as root user
#pacman -Sy
#pacman -S -l | grep -i catalyst
#pacman -S catalyst catalyst-utils
After installation reboot your machine in runlevel 1. (single mode). Ensure "fglrx" module is loaded correctly using
#lsmod | grep -i fglrx
If the resultant output have "fglrx" part the module is loaded correctly. The next step is to create a working /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Backup your current xorg.conf if needed.
#cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bkup
Then issue
#aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf
This will create a new xorg.conf file. Now we can test our confign.
#telinit 3
I am using runlevel 3 to avoid graphic messup!!
issue
#gdm
If you graphical login screen works correctly there is nothing to do more except adjust your monitor resoloution as you like.
To know your ati driver is working correctly issue as root
#fgl_glxgears
If gears are rolling happily it seems correct. You can also know more about installed ati driver
#fglrxinfo
Now the installed driver version is in the output
If there is any problem try following
##### Soloutions to solve various display problems using ATI Catalyst Drivers in Linux #####
yes video playback is choppy until i ran :-
sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv
Try adding the following to the 'Device' section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Option "TexturedVideo" "true"
### This is a half solution for mythtv problems. Run mythtv in window (no full screen) If You have a screen resolution of 1024x768 try the command;
mythfrontend --geometry 800x600
Append the "Device" Section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as follows;
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "fglrx"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
Option "TexturedVideoSync" "on"
Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Add following in the .bashrc of each user or /etc/bashrc file* Most Effective In My Case!!
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true
####### Arch Linux - Add the "nopat" option to the /boot/grub/menu.lst or /boot/grub/grub.conf
####### as in the following example
title Archlinux Ice Kernel
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26-ice root=/dev/sda2 ro resume=/dev/sda3 quiet splash nopat
initrd /boot/kernel26-ice.img

SCCM 2012 application portal: config questions

Hi,
We have setup SCCM 2012 application portal correctly and it's working fine.
However some config questions:
-can we change the name of the configuration portal? Now its servername/CMApplicationCatalog ... what's not userfriendly.
We'd like it to be applicationportal.ourcompany.com. Howto achieve that?
-can we customize layout in a supported way (we could change html pages but after an upgrade of SCCM they would/could be erased)?
-how does flexera (adminstudio?) plugs in into this. I've read this entry
http://helpnet.installshield.com/appportal2014/Content/helplibrary/AP_CreatingCatItemSCCM.htm but what's the big picture here? Anybody using this? What are the advantages?
J.
Jan Hoedt

We want to offer software center for overview of mandatory installs, application catalog for optional software.
On our companies portal, we can then set a link which directs to the application portal. User can then install optional software from there.
My current config works http://applicationportal.ourcompany.com/ goes to the sccm-server but not to the url below.
That would be http://applicationportal.ourcompany.com/CMApplicationCatalog/#/SoftwareLibrary/AppListPageView.xaml
how can I make sure the application portal shows up when this link is opened?
It sounds like you want to perform a URL rewrite?
http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/url-rewrite-module/creating-rewrite-rules-for-the-url-rewrite-module
You should test this to see if it's what you want - I may have misunderstood your question.
Also, I wouldn't host this module on your AppCatalog server, I'd host the rewrite module elsewhere.

GKSUDO, GKSU and SUDO. What's going on?!?!

Hello all. I don't usually come to boards, however I didn't found an answer to my question. So let me explain in details to you all:
(I'm using Arch with gnome3-fallback)
(gconf key /apps/gksu/sudo-mode is false by default)
(I tested everything with gedit and checking permissions in ~/.config/gedit)
First, I want to know what's the difference between gksu, gksudo and sudo.
From what I read on the internet it should be like this:
sudo: uses user's configuration, with root privileges. (supposed to be unsafe)
gksu: uses root's configuration, with root privileges. (supposed to be safe)
gksudo:: uses root's configuration, with root privileges. (supposed to be safe)
What's actually happening is:
sudo: uses root's configuration, with root privileges. (it's safe)
gksu: uses user's configuration, with root privileges, and screws up user's configuration permissions. (it's not safe)
gksudo: uses root's configuration, with root privileges, and some bugs appear, as an empty document on gedit. (it's safe)
gksudo and sudo are equally safe. They didn't screw up permissions, however gksudo showed some bugs, which are probably unrelated. That makes sense as gksudo is supposed to use sudo_mode (gksu -S).
gksu is very funny, so you have to try this:
- Open one instance with gksu gedit. (Output is something with 'Failed to connect to the session manager'. gedit uses user's configs)
- Open various instances with gedit. (Some of them will use root's configs, some of them will use user's configs. Some of them will print permission errors about ~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel, some won't.)
If you keep fiddling with that, at some point your user's configurations will be all messed up.
What's happening there? I don't have a clue.
Second, I would like to know how does gksudo works.
As some people pointed it out, it seems that gksu and gksudo should do the same thing, because gksudo is a symlink to gksu (try 'ls -l /usr/bin/gksudo').
However, they do different actions. How? All I can think about is libgksu treating them differently.
Nevertheless, gksudo is actually gksu -S, they can be freely swapped in my examples.
Any help is appreciated. Also, sorry for my english, I'm brazilian.

Not so fast, pilgrim :-D
I know, the OP mentioned Gnome 3, but not everybody uses a policykit-driven desktop, although I suspect you think everybody should :-D
Upstream says in big letters "gksu is being replaced by gksu PolicyKit, please take a look at http://live.gnome.org/gksu." On the page of that link is written "The new gksu will use PolicyKit as backend, instead of su and sudo."
AFAIK pure sudo stays for now, right?

A few post config questions on new setup

Hi Group,
Just a few post config questions.
First, how can I confirm my controller is in fact associating properly with an NTP server? On a typically cisco product, I could just do a 'show ntp associations' or a 'show ntp status'. I cannot see a way to confirm this on the gui or command line.
Second, on my guest network with web-auth, if one were to choose to not use https for web-auth and instead use unsecure http, would that be possible and if so where in the gui?
Thanks.

The third field is from a WLC running v7.4 not v7.2. I usually would install a 3rd party certificate, but what eles you can try is issue this command on from the CLI. It had issues working with certain code versions, but you might as well give it a try.
config network web-auth secureweb disable
Thanks,
Scott

Want to erase hard drive and reinstall Tiger- quick questions

I am giving my G4 to my son in a couple of days and it now has Classic on it. My plan is to erase the whole hard drive and install just Tiger. So my thoughts are:
1.) There are no settings I want/need to preserve. I have 4 Tiger CD's- is that the right number? I think I have them all but just want to make sure.
2.) Do I insert CD holding down the C key and from some point when the CD loads, I chose Disk Utility and wipe the hard drive then? Are there different choices for wiping the hard drive? Like the number of passes?
3.) And then is it just a simple matter of installing all 4 Tiger disks?
Any other tips, tricks, advice you can give me? Tomorrow's the big day (2/1)! Thanks so much, I am a bit nervous about this......... Judy

PI (XI 7.0) Installation and Post Installation Guides

We have installed XI 3.0 with previous clients, and we are trying to install XI 7.0 (PI) for a client on Windows 2003 SQL server. We looked for installation documents in the service.sap.com, but we were confused about which documents to follow.
Has anyone installed PI (XI 7.0) from scratch? If yes, could you provide us documents regarding installation and post installation steps. What are the differences in installing XI 3.0 and PI?
You help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Karma

Hey Karma,
You dont need any guide for PI post installation.
There is a facility in NW 2004s for completing post installation, they provide with templates. you just have to execute the templates and your PI post config is done.
first execute
NWD
and then
PI templates
After this import the BASIS components into design environment.

Workshop Weblogic config questions

I'm using Oracle Workshop for WebLogic 10.3 and I'm hoping someone can answer some setup/config questions.
When I double click on the server (WebLogic Server v10.3 at localhost) a window opens with various settings that manage how workshop and weblogic work together.
Under "Startup & Deployment" I have the following turned on:
Launch WebLogic server in Eclipse console
Always start WebLogic Server in debug mode
Ignore project compilation errors when publishing (I have this turned on because of errors in a portal project, the errors aren't inmportant, and don't prevent the project form running)
Run stand-alone web module directly from workspace
So, first question, with these settings I was able to quickly switch to debug mode, with out restarting the server, now the server restarts whenever I turn debugging on. What have I done that has stopped this working correctly? How can I get it to start debugging without a full restart?
next question, what happens if I turn on "Start WebLogic Server in Express Mode"? As far as I can tell nothing happens.
Lastly, under "Automatic Publishing" I have it set to "Never publish automatically", if I choose another setting workshop essentially freezes because it's constantly publishing. So whenever I make a change, even in a jsp, I need to remove the project, then re-add it to see my changes in the browser. This is frustrating, not just because it takes 8 or 9 minutes (8 or 9 MINUTES!!!), but because the project doesn't run properly until it is redeployed. You'd think that if it needs to be re-deployed, then none of my changes should matter on the server until it is re-deployed.
So, my question is, Is there any way to get this re-deployment to happen faster?
Thanks for any and all help

Well, in my experience performance is not bad as you experienced. Is it locally connected server or remotely connected server? If it is a remote server, network issue could cause this latency issue.
Is performance better if you run the server without enabling debug mode? If yes, probably you can also review any break points set.
You could also try out the following options
1) Run workshop with -clean option, by opening command prompt and navigating to workshop_home\'workshop.exe -clean'
2) Untick the option 'Launch WebLogic server in Eclipse console' and start server which would enable server to start on command prompt
3) This would enable you to take multiple thread dumps (cutl +Break) on the server console output, while performance is very bad, to see where threads are halt.

FIM Service and Portal Installation Ends Prematurely

Hello All,
I'm in the process of setting up a new production FIM 2010 R2 server. I have already installed the FIM synchronization service and I was able to install this successfully.
I have already installed SharePoint services (WSS 3.0) and configured it for FIM. But when I try to install the FIM Service and Portal.
I keep getting and error that says " FIM Service and Portal Installation Ends Prematurely" with no other details. If anybody has any advice please let me know.
I have already installed everything on a stand alone box in a dev environment and it all works correctly however I am unable to now install in a production environment

Cameron is right - you should consider FIMService account nearly as normal AD account for user*
An installer account should be admin on the box, where you are installing FIMService and he should be sysadmin on SQL during installation of FIMService. An installer account should be other than FIMService account itself.
*FIMService account:
Lock down the Service Account
The service account should not be used by any other services or users. The account must not be used to logon interactively and requires no access to any additional resources beyond those granted during setup. The service account is used to provide the security
context for the MIIS service as it accesses resources on the MIIS server and the associated database. It also provides the security context for the execution of any rules extensions.
Lock down the service account to ensure no malicious user is able to sign in using its credentials and gain access to MIIS data. Configure Group Policies to lock down the account and restrict access to this account. Since the MIIS service only needs the account
to run as a service, restrict the account as follows:
Deny logon as a batch job.
Deny logon locally.
Deny logon through Terminal Services.
Deny access to this computer from the network.

Hi mnomi! Sorry to learn of the trouble you're running into with your new phone! Have you already switched the device via your My Verizon : http://vz.to/16lkVUY Once you have done this, and verify the sim card is inserted securely, the activation will begin. If the phone is stuck on the wheel and you cannot move forward, you may want to do an alternative reset. Please follow the below instructions:
1) Ensure the device is powered off.
2) Press and hold the Volume Down button (located on the right edge) until instructed to release in step 4.
3) Press and hold the Power button (located on the top-right edge) until the device vibrates (approximately 2 seconds) then release.
4) When the restore screen appears (exclamation mark), release the Volume Down button.
5) From the restore screen, press then release the following keys to initiate the reset process:
1. Volume Up button
2. Volume Down button
3. Power button
4. Volume Down button
*Allow several minutes for the process to complete (rotating gears appear on the display to indicate that the reset is in progress).
If you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know. Keep us posted if this resolves your concerns. Thanks!

Re: PLM4P v6003 Config Question: Any way to configure UGM Notifications?

After reading:
PLM4P v6003 Config Question: Any way to configure UGM Notifications?
This is one of the requirements from me as well. We always wanted to customize emails sent not only for UGM but also for other modules. We wanted to conveysome message to approvers. But it seems this is still not possible. Is this functionality on road-map of AgielP4P product management?

Currently, the subject and body of emails can be customized to an extent, as they are translations that can be overridden. The translations have some placeholder fields that get populated by the system, but you are limited to those placeholder fields. The upcoming release will give you full control of the email body and subject lines, for GSM and SCRM emails, as well as Supplier Rep emails.
