Sychronisation AD - OID: Is it possible to read the user password from AD?

Hi.
We are using the Oracle Internet Directory shipped with the Oracle 9i Database Rel. 2 (9.2.0.1).
I try to synchronise the user accounts from AD to OID using JAVA JNDI. I'm able to read all necessary user information except the user password (MD5 value). Even if I connect to the AD using SSL, it's not possible to read the attribute userPassword.
Is anybody out there who got this work or knows a way (may also be by the use of another programming language or tool) to get the user password out of AD? Is this possible? How does the Oracle Integration Agents accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.
Hermann S.

Hermann,
I am working with this as well, though from AS10g, not RDBMS. According to the OID Administrator Guide chapter 43, page 43-52:
<snip>
Synchronizing passwords from Microsoft Active Directory to Oracle Internet Directory is not possible in the Oracle Application Server 10g release because passwords in Microsoft Active Directory are not accessible by LDAP clients. However, if a deployment requires passwords to be available in Oracle Internet Directory, then the following two methods are recommended:
Build a custom plug-in for Microsoft Active Directory that captures a password change and synchronizes it with Oracle Internet Directory
Manage Active Directory passwords from the Oracle environment. This enables passwords to be available in both Oracle Internet Directory and Microsoft Active Directory because the Active Directory connector can synchronize passwords from Oracle Internet Directory to Microsoft Active Directory.
</snip>
As10g can however look up the password in AD using the "Active Directory External Authentication Plug-In". This is documented in the same chapter.
Hope this helps,
Jens

It is possible to reuse the obfuscated password from a dads.conf in the apex listener?

Hello there,
Little by little we are moving to the APEX 2 listener, good! But the problem is that every time that somebody ask me for a new set up I have the same problem:
I go to one of our DBAs (nice guys by the way!) and ask, "may I have the password for the APEX_PUBLIC_USER of this DB"?
The password is obfuscated, so the answer is: it needs to be changed => delay in the setup => unhappy users...
I have tried a classic copy and paste, this is take the obfuscated password from the dad and put it in the <entry key="db.password">, but of course it did not work, sigh...
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance,
Luis

If you are using adobe Flex Builder to develop SWF, please be sure using ExternalInterface class to expose the refresh() method.
then you can should be able to call this method in Javascript.

Is it possible to read the user in a user defined fuction in a PI mapping?

I am running PI 7.0. I have a service call to the HTTP adapter on my Integration Engine to initiate a message. I would like to capture the username used to connect to the HTTP service when this message was called.
The call is initiated with the endpoint http://<myhost>:<http port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry&sap-user=THISUSER&sap-password=MyPassword&version=3.0&Sender.Service=MyBServ&Interface=MyNamespace^MyInterface
When I look at the message in the RWB, I can see that the username is captured as part of the SOAP Header, in the RunTime area of the input message,

<SAP:RunTime>
<SAP:Date>20101216</SAP:Date>
<SAP:Time>102057</SAP:Time>
<SAP:Host>myhost</SAP:Host>
<SAP:SystemId>xxx</SAP:SystemId>
<SAP:SystemNr>xx</SAP:SystemNr>
<SAP:OS>OS400</SAP:OS>
<SAP:DB>DB400</SAP:DB>
<SAP:Language/>
<SAP:ProcStatus>000</SAP:ProcStatus>
<SAP:AdapterStatus>000</SAP:AdapterStatus>
<SAP:User>THISUSER</SAP:User>
Is there a way that I can return this username in a User Defined Function (UDF)?

You have to make use of the ASMA....dynamic configuration....sap-user will be a URL paarmeter....check point4 from this help section: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/43/64db4daf9f30b4e10000000a11466f/content.htm
(sould be applicable for PI7.0 also)

Is it possible to read a mySQL database from an ABAP report?

We have some information stored in a mySQL database which is now required on ABAP reports.
Is it possible to read the mySQL database from an ABAP report? I'm still a bit confused on that.
So far I have setup DBCO with information about the mySQL server using MMS as the DBS because mySQL was not an option. I have made sure we have the latest dbmssslib.dll installed.
When I try to run the following code
EXEC SQL.
    CONNECT TO :con
ENDEXEC.
I get error: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Then I have tried to connect using the function CHECK_CONNECTION_SDB.
I get the following messages in the return table:
1     OS-AppServ:Windows NT
2     dbmcli_neg: no_client_software
3     dbmrfc_c_neg: no_client_software
4     dbmrfc_s_neg: no_client_software
5     sql_neg
6     work_proc: 1
Does anyone know what I need to do to connect to the mySQL database.
Thank you
Karen

Thank you for your reply. I've gone through all the documentation you sent and much more and I'm still not sure what the problem is.
One thing that concerns me is that this all relates to MS SQL server and I'm trying to link to a mySQL database. Is this even possible?
Some posts talk about changing Oracle settings and having J2EE installed. Is this necessary to connect to a mySQL database via ABAP?
Which user should I enter into DBCO? Is it the mySQL server user or a SAP user? Does the person in charge of the mySQL database need to add any permissions for SAP to access the database or is that done by the user in DBCO?
Does anyone have any more advice?
Thank you
Karen
Also, does anyone know what the messages from the CHECK_CONNECTION_SDB function mean
1 OS-AppServ:Windows NT
2 dbmcli_neg: no_client_software
3 dbmrfc_c_neg: no_client_software
4 dbmrfc_s_neg: no_client_software
5 sql_neg
6 work_proc: 1

Is it possible to read the file using File Adapter which is in client machi

Is it possible to read the file using file Adapter which is in client machine(on the same network).Then what is thee need of FTP Adapter?

You can achieve that by exposing your client machine as a drive, then you can go using file adapter.
FTP adapter will help you to communicate with different machine which is in different network.

Is it possible to read the description of videos that you can see in iTunes on your iPod Touch 4th Gen or 5th Gen?

I was wondering if it's at all possible to read the description of videos that you have on your iPod Touch 4th or 5th Generation. It's available on iTunes, but I was wondering if there was a way to see it on your actual device.
Any answer would be a great help! Thanks

You can omit the title altogether in the URL (together with the succeeding slash, of course). For example, my own podcast URL in the Store is
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-sound-of-78s/id166389425?mt=2
but this works perfectly well:
https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/id166389425
Indeed you can even put your own title:
https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/any_old_title/id166389425
So it's as simple as that!

Hi,
You can do it with custom code, if you have a read of a blog I wrote :- http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/2009/11/odi-series-planning-11113-enhancements.html
About half way through I go into reading essbase sub vars using the essbase java API.

Is it possible to allow the user to highlight specific label in the GUI.

i have an existing GUI tt allows user to key in records of information eg, patient records in a hospital system.
and display them based on wat the user key in for the patient's id no:
is it possible to allow the user to highlight label in the GUI.
Label as in information like Illness:<Red>Cancer<Red>
for tt customer only.
and re open the file to have the color still there.
i serialized my vector of objects into a file, and have the gui to retrieve them upon execution.
color wise i m lost.
one solution is to have a corresponding Color attribute to each of my other attribute in all my other classes.
besides this, any idea how to do it?
i also did a search on java map..
couldn't really find sth useful abt it..
seems like few ppl know how to use it well..
API doesn't seems to show how i can use it to reach my objective.
anyway, i hope the user can highlight A attribute of a record and not highlight the entire record..
tt's why i find it soo cumbersome to have another Color object created for each atttribute.
eg:
patientId, patientName, etc.....
thanks in advance

Several Swing components understand HTML tags, eg JLabel, which is VERY useful, as in the previous example.
Are you asking "how do I highlight a field" or "how do I make it remember the color it has"?
As Color is itself Serializable, why not store your data in a Hashtable not a Vector?

Is it possible to change the user status of a TECO Order

Hello Folks
Is it possible to changes the user status of a TECO Order?
I have tried to change it using the FM 'STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN'. Its working fine for NON TECO Orders but not for TECO Orders.
On the other hand I was able to manually change the user status for a TECO Order in transaction IW32.
I need to change the user status from NFBK to FBK.
Please provide some inputs for the same.
Thanks n Regards

The simple way is via the Internationalization settings via ARD or RDP or Screen Sharing, either via System Preferences or (if enabled) via the menu bar.

I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.Please help me for that.

I want to check all functions of PCI 6534.I have read the user manual..I have some memory related questions.Please help me for that.
1.)If i am using the continuous output mode.and the size of generated data is less than 32 MB.If i want to preload the memory,what should i do?I want that first of all i load all my data to onboard memory & then i want to make start the transfer between 6534 & peripheral.Is it possible?As per me it should be.Plz tell me how should i do this?I think that in normal procedure the transfer between 6534-peripheral & outputting data from pc buffer to onboard memory works parallely.But i don't want this.Is it poss
ible?
(2).Similarly in finite input operation(pattern I/O) is it possible to preload the memory and then i read it?Because i think that the PC memory will be loaded automatically when 6534 acquires the data and then when we use DIO read vi the pc buffer data will be transferred to application buffer.If this is true,i do not want this.Is it possible?
(3) One more question is there if i am using normal operation onboard memory will be used bydefault right?Now if i want to use DMA and if i have data of 512 bytes to acquire.How will it work and how should i do it?Please tell me the sequence of operations.As per my knowledge in normal DMA operation we have 32 Bytes FIFO is there so after acquisition of 32 bytes only i can read it.How it will known to me that 32 bytes acquisition is complete?Next,If i want to acquire each byte separately using DMA interrupts what should i do?Provide me the name of sourse from which i can get details about onboard memory & DMA process of 6534 specifically
(4).In 6534 pattern Input mode,if i want to but only 10 bits of data.and i don't want to waste any data line what should i do?

Hi Vishal,
I'll try to answer your questions as best I can.
1) It is definitely possible to preload data to the 32MB memory (per group) and start the acquisition after you have preloaded the memory. There are example programs on ni.com/support under Example Code for pattern generation and the 6534 that demonstrate which functions to use for this. Also, if your PC memory buffer is less than 32MB, it will automatically be loaded to the card. If you are in continuous mode however, you can choose to loop using the on-board memory or you can constantly be reading the PC memory buffer as you update it with your application environment.
2) Yes, your data will automatically be loaded into the card's onboard memory. It will however be transferred as quickly as possible to the DMA FIFO on the card and then transferred to the PC memory buffer through DMA. It is not going to wait until the whole onboard memory is filled before it transfers. It will transfer throughout the acquisition process.
3) Vishal, searching the example programs will give you many of the details of programming this type of application. I don't know you application software so I can't give you the exact functions but it is easiest to look at the examples on the net (or the shipping examples with your software). Now if you are acquiring 512 bytes of data, you will start to fill your onboard memory and at the same time, data will be sent to the DMA FIFO. When the FIFO is ready to send data to the PC memory buffer, it will (the exact algorithm is dependent on many things regarding how large the DMA packet is etc.).
4) If I understand you correctly, you want to know if you waste the other 6 bits if you only need to acquire on 10 lines. The answer to this is Yes. Although you are only acquiring 10 bits, it is acquired as a complete word (16bits) and packed and sent using DMA. You application software (NI-DAQ driver) will filter out the last 6 bits of non-data.
Hope that answers your questions. Once again, the example code on the NI site is a great place to start this type of project. Have a good day.

I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug. I want to sync my data - contacts most important - from my itunes account...is this possible? Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug. I want to sync my data - contacts most important - from my itunes account...is this possible? Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

There are no contacts in itunes.
Your contact should be on your computer in whatever program you have selected to sync. Just sync them to the new one.
Click Support at the top of this page, then click manuals
Changing the itunes account on nthe iphone is covered there as is restoring the iphone as new or from backup.

Is it possible to import the failure cases from another test plan in MTM ?

Hi,
Is it possible to import the failure cases from another test plan? For example, I have created a new test plan with ID 1002. Now I want to import the failure cases from test plan with ID 1001. Is there anyway to do this?
Thanks,
Leslu

Hi Leslu,
As far as I know, there isn’t that feature in MTM, but we could achieve that by add test cases to the test suite.
As we know, the test case is associated to the test suite, remove the test case from the test suite won’t delete the test case, it just remove the relationship.
So, we could base on the test cases’ id to add the test cases to a test suite of another test plan.
The condition is:
Work Item Type In Group Test Case Category
ID In id1,id2 (e.g. 1,2,)

Is it possible to take the CDR data from a v4.2 Call Manager and copy it to a separate server where it would be made available for reporting?

Is it possible to take the CDR data from a v4.2 Call Manager and copy it to a separate server where it would be made available for reporting? We are not interested in migrating the CDR data to v6 because of the concerns it introduces to the upgrade process. Is it possible to get the raw data and somehow serve it from a different machine? (knowing it would be 'old' data that stops as of a certain date). If so, what would be the complexity involved in doing so?
It seems like the CDR data lives within MSSQL and the reporting interface is within the web server portion of the Call Manager... that's as far as we've dug so far.

Hi
It is absolutely possible to get the data - anyone you have in your org with basic SQL skills can move the data off to a standalone SQL server. This could be done most simply by backing up and restoring the DB using SQL Enterprise Manager.
Moving the CAR/ART reporting tool would be more difficult... if you do actually use that for reporting (most people find it doesn't do what they need and don't use it for anything but basic troubleshooting, and get a third party package) then the best option may be to keep your publisher (possibly assigning it a new IP) and leave it running for as long as you need reporting.
You would then need a new server to run your upgraded V6 CCM; you may find you need this anyway.

Aaron

Is it possible to export the html code from a muse site that I am building?

Is it possible to export the html code from a muse site that I am building?

Mac_Heibu has the right idea. When you export your site to HTML, it creates a folder that contains all of your pages. Here's an example of what the folder will contain. All of your HTML pages, all your scripts, CSS, and it'll also have individual folders WITHIN your main folder for your phone or tablet versions, if applicable. This method allows you to upload your files to an FTP host. However, if you're trying to upload it to an FTP, the BETTER option would be to go File > Upload to FTP Host. If this has helped you, please mark mac_heibu's answer as the Correct Answer, and feel free to mark my reply as a Helpful Answer.
