System.privilege.admin problem

Good afternoon. Please excuse if this has already been asked and answered, but after searching for a few days I still haven't found a fix for this:
After I had to wipe the hard drive on my G5 (don't ask), I reinstalled the OS from the DVD and then used the setup assistant to migrate all my files from my (mirrored) MacBook Pro. Now the application that runs my wireless broadband modem starts up, recognizes the modem, which is getting reception and shows up on Sprint's network (their tech support confirms), but *asks for my admin password, noting that it's necessary for "system.privilege.admin"* I give the (confirmed) password. At that point I get the spinning beach ball for a few seconds, then nothing at all happens. It doesn't freeze, mind you. It just goes back to idle. The same modem works fine with the same software on my laptop.
*How do I fix my "system.privilege.admin"?*
I had to reauthorize my Adobe Creative Suite, too, incidentally, but that took immediately.
Here's what I've already tried:
--Repair permissions
--Un- and reinstall the software
--delete plists associated with Sprint's SmartView software
--create a new user account with admin privileges (beyond my main account that has admin privileges, too, of course)
--confirmed firewall settings as "allow all incoming connections"
None of these had any effect on the problem.
Thank you for your time. I hope you can help.

Ah! Very interesting! I hadn't thought to circumvent the provided application entirely. -- Well, look at that! That did the trick! Thank you, Sig.
Here is the configuration for future reference:
Configuration: Default
Telephone Number: #777
Account name: (field left blank)
Password: (field left blank)
Advanced > Modem Tab:
Vendor: Other
Model: EVDO Support
Enable error correction and compression in modem (checked)
Dial Mode: Ignore dial tone when dialing
Dialing: Tone
Sound: Off
The rest of the settings I left alone.
I'm still curious how to address the system.privilege.admin issue, but my actual problem is solved. Thank you for your help! I appreciate it.

  • System and admin privileges after restore

    I just restored my system from a disk image.
    The system boots fine, but I can only launch programmes that are owned by my user (firefox, photoshop etc.). Programmes owned by the system (system - rw, admin - rw, everyone - r) will not launch, so no mail, no system prefs and no terminal.
    The HD is system owned and I can't unlock the lock in get info o the HD or any of the programmes.
    repair permissions from the install disk (though it's a 10.4 disk) or from a 10.5 via target HD mode doesn't help.
    Tried adding my user to the admin group using single user mode, but it said that user was already part of the group. And even if I'm not an admin I should still be able to launch programmes, no?
    Thanks,

  • *Listing admin_option for System Privilege *

    Hi All,
    I have a use case where in i have to list the admin_option for all the system privileges.
    Apart from two privileges listed below i could find this info from dba_sys_priv and dba_wm_sys_priv views.
    SYSDBA
    SYSOPER
    We can find these privileges information from v$pwfile view which do not give any information abt admin_option.
    Is there any way we can find out this inforamtion?
    I executed following steps :
    =================================
    SQL> conn user2/password
    Connected.
    SQL>select user from dual;
    USER
    USER2
    SQL> conn user2/password as sysdba
    Connected.
    SQL> select user from dual;
    USER
    SYS
    SQL> conn user2/password
    Connected.
    SQL> grant sysdba to user1;
    grant sysdba to user1
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
    SQL> conn user2/password as sysdba
    Connected.
    SQL> run
    1* grant sysdba to user1
    Grant succeeded.
    ======================================
    Here when 'user2' is connecting as sysdba, its becoming 'sys' and its 'sys' who is granting sysdba privilege to 'user1'.
    So from this, can we say that its always 'sys' who can grant the sysdba privilege and admin_option for sys is always 'YES' where as for other users its always 'NO'
    Is this same for 'sysoper' privilege, because initially, its only 'sys' who has both the privileges assigned?
    If above is not true, is there any way to find this information?
    I am in URGENT need of this information. Could anybody please help me on this?

    Just a correction...
    From Oracle management Console, we can not change the admin_option assigned by default.
    Even if we try to change, the following sql gets executed
    REVOKE SYSDBA FROM USER2
    GRANT SYSDBA TO USER2
    So its ultimately With admin option always :)
    That has solved my problem
    Thanks all for your help..

  • VLD-2771: System privileges may not allow extraction from source T.

    How to solve this problem.
    while deploying I am getting this message,besides where in oracle site I can find documentation for the errors in warehouse builder.
    VLD-2771: System privileges may not allow extraction from source T.
    I had given dba privileges to both source and target schemas, but still getting the error.
    Regards,
    Prabhathg

    When I tried to deploy my mapping, I am getting warning message <<VLD-2771: System privileges may not allow extraction from source D_UII_MV_NCA_INFRACONN.>>. As solution written in "http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=252565&message=742299", I gave SELECT privilege on the source table to the target user. But still, I am getting this error message.
    Can you please guide me in right direction?

  • VLD-2771 System privileges may not allow extraction from source ....??

    When I try to deploy the mappings in OWB Deployment Manager, I got a Warning "VLD-2771 System privileges may not allow extraction from source ORDER_ITEMS". WHY? ^^""
    ========================================
    I define a Runtime Repository Connections "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME"
    Host Name: localhost
    Port Number: 1521
    Service Name: GBGLM
    Connect As User: owb904rr
    Runtime Repository Owner: owb904rr
    and the "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME" is in "ORACLE_WAREHOUSE" module, the "ORACLE_WAREHOUSE" use the link "OE" and the owner is "OWBUSER"
    p.s. the table "ORDER_ITEMS" is in "OE" schema. I had grant DBA to "owb904rr" and "OWBUSER".
    then use "ORACLE_HW_RUNTIME" to deploy the Mappings "WH_ORDERS_MAP". What I need to do for deploy?
    ^_^||

    Anyone with similar experience using SQL Server as the source?
    First I get: VLD-2771: System privileges may not allow extraction from source Product.
    Then if i ignore the warning and deploy, i get
    ORA-06550: line 15, column 18:
    PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    I have a public database link to the sql server database.
    When I create the mapping, I am able to see the tables and create the map. So why this problem when deploying. Which user is to be granted access to the source tables. I belive we cannot grant access to remote database tables using a database link. So what is the work around?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

  • Command line call of sqlplus with system-privileges

    Hello,
    I have the following problem: I like to run a sqlplus-command on sun-solaris with a 8.1.7 database which needs system-privileges. It works with every other user. When I use system I'll get an ORA-01017 (Invalid username/password).
    When I start this from DOS-Client it works, but I must run it from sun-solaris.
    Has anyone an idea?
    Thanks!!!
    Andreas Orth

    how are you connecting to the sun box from dos
    like this?
    connect system/manager@remote_db
    are you sure you have connected to the correct database?
    try select name from v$database after you have connected.
    do you have more than one instance on the sun box? have you st SID and HOME
    correctly to point you to the correct instance? If you can connect with another user
    from the sun box again verify that you are connected to the correct instance
    with select name from v$database

  • System privileges

    dear DBAs,
    in our banking application we are using a profile where the SELECT_ANY_DICTIONARY priv. is included, and this profile is granted to the user who owns the application database objects.
    the problem is that when this user is trying to query the V$SESSION within a procedure and we are obliged to grant him the SELECT_ANY_DICTIONARY priv. from outside the profile, otherwise the procedure will not be properly compiled.
    do someone have an idea about how to make this procedure properly compiled without granting him this privileges from outside and keep it only within the profile.
    appreciate your suggestion.
    Regards
    Elie

    Do not give SELECT_ANY_DICTIONARY system privileges.You have to give explicitly SELECT or EXECUTE privileges according objects like
    grant select on v_$session to <user name>This will solve your problem.

  • Who may grant a system privilege?

    I am asking this as the Oracle doc explains:
    Only users who have been granted a specific system privilege with the ADMIN OPTION or users with the system privileges GRANT ANY PRIVILEGE or GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE can grant or revoke system privileges to other users.
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96524/c24privs.htm#791
    Im not clear on this: why does GRANT ANY OBJECT PRIVILEGE give you the ability to grant SYSTEM privs??
    Thanks,
    DA

    This conflicts with the admin guide (http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96521/privs.htm#15326) which says: "To grant a system privilege, you must have been granted the system privilege with the ADMIN OPTION or have been granted the GRANT ANY PRIVILEGE system privilege."
    It works as said in the admin guide.

  • Create a new user for oracle 10G ASM instance with sysdba system privilege

    Hi,
    In our Golden Gate Project, we require the SYS user credential to connect to the Oracle 10g  ASM instance to read the database transaction logs.But our client is not providing the SYS user credential to  connnect to ASM instance.
    I'm getting the error message "ORA-01109:  database not open",When I tried to create a new user using the  below the steps in oracle 10g ASM instance
    1. Login using "sqlplus / as sysdba"
    2. Create user <username> identified by <password>;
    But in oracle 11g ASM instance, I'm able to create new  user  by connecting the ASM instance with SYSASM role without issues.
    Is there is any workaround to create a new user with sysdba system privilege in oracle 10g ASM instance?.
    Thanks in advance .

    Hi,
    Recreate the password file for the ASM instance as follows:
    Unix:
    orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/PWD<SID> password=<sys_password>
    Windows:
    orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/database/PWD<SID>.ora password=<sys_password>
    Now sys password is reset, we are ready to use sys for ASM management. I decided to create another user ASMDBA as I tried above.
    SQL> create user ASMDBA identified by test01;
    User created.
    SQL> grant SYSASM, SYSOPER to ASMDBA;
    Grant succeeded.
    SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
    USERNAME SYSDBA SYSOPE SYSASM
    SYS TRUE TRUE TRUE
    ASMDBA FALSE TRUE TRUE
