Take a snapshot of the user at login

I just read the Apple Pro Tip about adding tasks to your login (start-up) items. It gave me the idea of automatically taking a snapshot of the user when logging in. A little searching came up with an applicagtion called iSightCapture at ScriptBuilders: http://scriptbuilders.net/files/isightcapture1.1.html
and some tips by "Neoporcupine"
http://neoporcupine.blogspot.com/2006/06/automating-isight.html
The steps are:
1) Create a SNAPME folder in Applications and add the iSightCapture executible to it
2) Create a LOGIN_PICS folder in <Home>/Pictures
3) Start Scrip Editor and paste the following code
tell application "Terminal"
do shell script "/Applications/snapme/isightcapture ${HOME}/Pictures/login_pics/snap.`date '+%y%m%d.%H%M%S'`.jpg"
delay 4
close the front window
end tell
4) Save it as a runtime script SNAPME.SCRPT in the APPLICATIONS/SNAPME folder
5) Test it (run the script then look in the LOGIN_PICS folder for the snapshot - the filename is cleverly date and time stamped)
6) Add the script to your logon items (System Preferences - Accounts)

Oops
Step 4 should say save it an an application (not a script)

Make iSight camera take a snapshot of the user when keywords are typed

I work in an APR and we have a lot of trouble with people trying to look at adult content on our customer machines. Obviously we have blocked these types of sites, but we cannot keep tabs on all the proxies. We have also deleted Photo Booth off of the machines otherwise the machines are 3 people deep on weekends and we cant demo stuff to customers. does anyone know of any free apps that will take a snapshot of the user when they type in a keyword such as "Adult Games" or "Meatspin", save that file and the word they typed on the HD somewhere? Or, some way of making Automator do that? Don't forget that we do not have photo booth on the machines. And it would be nice if the App/automator didn't make the iSight camera light come on, and also notified us when a keyword has been entered.

Is it possible to force the user to login again when using oauth 2 (implicit grant)

Hi,
I'm trying to build an application based on a rest webservice in APEX which is being accessed by a javascript frontend via ORDS. I'm using the "Implicit grant" flow of OAUTH 2.
When the user is finished with the application, he/she should be able to logout of the application, so another user can login (on the same machine and browser). But, without clearing all cookies, ORDS will automatically give an access token for the previous user, without showing the login screen to allow/deby access to the rest web service.
(Clearing the cookies is not possible via javascript, since they are httponly)
I know it is not the "normal" way to use oauth2, but I would like to be able to log-out a user. So how can I force ORDS to show the loginscreen again to give another user the possibility to login?
Alexander

You can force the implicit code flow to prompt the user to sign in by including _auth_=force in the approval request query string. To follow the example shown in the developer guide [1]
change:
https://server:port/ords/resteasy/oauth2/auth?response_type=token&client_id=CLIENT_IDENTIFIER&state=STATE
to:
https://server:port/ords/resteasy/oauth2/auth?response_type=token&client_id=CLIENT_IDENTIFIER&state=STATE&_auth_=force

How to access the User's login portal ID?

Pdfwatermark based on the user who login

Hi,
I wanted to know whether we can apply pdfwatermarking to documents based on the users who logs in?how?
Thanks in advance

I just got your point: you want to determine the rule, not the text in the PDF Watermark itself.
I'm afraid, this is not possible - at least, OOTB. The rules really have criteria based on metadata of the document only - see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/e01_user_if.htm#CACCAGAB
I can think of two ways how this could be resolved:
- text in the template would be so dynamic, that it'd opt to blank if necessary (this requires that PDF templates may accept idocScript, which I do not know if true)
- at the caller side or somehow in the processing of the called service (so that Watermarking is by-passed)
It'd help if you describe your business scenario.
P.S. I've just seen you described your scenario. So, it eliminates the option b) - just check if you can use idocscript in the templates, then.

When you take a snapshot of the desk top where is it saved?

When you press Control-Command-3 for a snapshot where can I find it?

There is also:
Command-Control-Shift-3 - Capture entire screen
Command-Control-Shift-4 - Drag to select copy region
Command-Control-Shift-4-Space - Capture Window under cursor
If you want a menu or pop-up, then do the
Command-Control-Shift-4-Space
after the menu or pop-up is setup as you like it.
Now paste the clipboard into whatever document accepts graphics.
I also like the utility Skitch, as it lets you add circles, arrows and a description to what you have captured <http://skitch.com/>.

Accessing an application without forcing the user to login

I'm a new guy, so please forgive me if I don't have this quite right. I have an inquiry OAF application bolted on to apps R12 that I need to make available to users that do not have user IDs. They're all inside the firewall, so there are no issues with security as long as they can only access this single inquiry. Do I need to mount a separate OC4J server, or can this be done somehow with the existing apps OC4j server? Maybe based on the referring page or something? Can someone point me to anything that will get me started with this? Thanks.

I found this topic in the forum which helps...

How do I add a custom trusted certificate to a user's login keychain without needing the user's interaction?

In using ARD I can send the certificate to the user's desktop and install the Lync application but so far the only way I can get the certificate into the user's login keychain is by having them enter their password. This of course becomes inefficient when having to adminster 75 systems.
Which command can I send to the individual systems to store the certificate into their login keychains without having them to verify their password?
Any and all help is greatly appreciated

unfortunately no, MS Lync references the user's login keychain - at this point I can run a command through ARD that allows me to move the cert into the keychain and have the cert accept a password from the root account but now the problem is finding a command line to change the default trust settings to 'Always Trust'

Need to display last login details to the user after they login into portal

Hi All,
As per our requirement ,we need to display to the user,the following things:
1.Last login date and time will be maintained and displayed to the user after login.
2.Last unsuccessful login date and time will be maintained and displayed to the user after login.
3.No. of unsuccessful retrials before locking the user will be maintained and displayed to the user after login.
Therefore we are creating a webdynpro application wherein we are making use of the UME API and trying to retireve these information.
The methods i am using are:
IUserAccount.getLastFailedLogonDate() // To fetch the Last unsuccessful login date and time
IUserAccount.getFailedLogonAttempts() // No. of unsuccessful retrials
IUserAccount.getLastSuccessfulLogonDate() // Last login date and time
But the problem is IUserAccount.getLastSuccessfulLogonDate() is deprecated and i unable to use it,and also i am unable to get the value *IUserAccount.getFailedLogonAttempts() * I am only geting zero.Can anybody let me know alternative method to get this details.
Request you to guide me and help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Nishita Salver

Hi,
I hope you are trying to show your login date from SharePoint List.
My suggestion is
1. by using ECMA Script ,retrieve values from that list and show the same in Master Page.
2. If you are not comfortable with ECMA, develop Visual Webpart and add the Visual Webpart in master page by using SharePoint Designer.
Please let me know ,if you need further guidance.
Don't forget to mark it as an Answer if it resolves your issue and Vote Me as helpful if it useful.

How can I make a report public so the user doesn't have to login

I am new to apex and am looking at using some of the reporting tools in apex to create reports in our existing application which is all hand coded htp.p calls
The users already login to our application using their own oracle users and passwords through modplsql so I want to be able to embed the apex report into our application without the need to logon.
Thanks
Robert

Thanks, I'm not sure if I'm being a bit thick but I can't see that!
I've gone to
Home>Application Builder>Application 105>Page 1
which is my page deffinition and under security it just tells me 'No authorization schemes defined.'
There is no Authentication option so I guess I'm looking in the wrong place!?

How take snapshot of the screen and save it as jpg

Dear Friends,
I need to take some snapshot of the screen but i want to move with the mouse a square and then resize the square to define the area to take snapshots .... i would like to take a snapshot for example every second or less and saved as jpg with a name x and then replace the x with the next snapshot ... x.jpg (always) ...
How can i start ...what classes can i use , please help me ...

Java 1.3 introduces a class java.awt.Robot, which includes a method
public BufferedImage createScreenCapture(Rectangle screenRect)
Java Advanced Imaging is downloadable for Java 1.3, or included in Java 1.4, and includes codecs for reading and writing images to and from files in various formats, including jpeg... there should be examples in the download.
The part where you may find trouble is drawing a rectangle with the mouse to define the area to take snapshots - you cannot track the mouse outside the area of your application, so cannot draw an area to capture unless it is entirely within your application Frames/Windows. It may be possible to create a fullscreen transparent window to track the mouse, but this will interfere with the operation of the desktop while it is displayed... which may be desirable to be able to draw the capture area.
