Trying to setup im to store user props in ldap
I am running the im/sbin/configure script. I'm trying to setup im to store user props in ldap. Can someone tell me what bind dn, I need to specify. It will be whatever the default is. I'm not sure how to find this.
The default bind dn is normally "cn=Directory Manager".

Single amserver.war force to store users in LDAP
Hello everyone!
I've installed Sun Directory Server EE, and now am trying to install Access Manager 7.1u1 as a single war (Solaris 10 x86). I am following steps as described here http://developers.sun.com/identity/reference/techart/install.html . But even if I provide correct ldap connection info on /amserver/configurator.jsp , AM still stores users not in LDAP. After configuration AM login page says that "This server uses Data Store Authentication". There are no user records in ldap.
So, how can I force AM to use LDAP as primary users datastore?
This is needed by PS7.2 installer that searches specific users in ldap (amldapuser maybe), does not find them and exits.Hi,
That's quite easy. you change the type of data store from the Sun Access Manager console.
Follow these steps:
1. Login in to Sun Access Manager Console-> under your subrealm.
2. delete the default data store.
3. configure your datastore i.e., your ldap.
4. Create a new authentication module of type LDAP from Authentication tab under your subrealmand specify your datastore in it.
5. Modify authentication chain from Authentication tab to point to newly created authentication module.
6. save the changes & Restart the Sun Access Manager.
I am sure after this configuration AM login page will says that "This server uses LDAP Authentication".
Let me know if you need more help.

Trying to setup systemd user instance
Hi guys!
For the past few days I have been trying to setup systemd to run a user instance (user is 'hans'). Sadly, I have been unable to find a lot of detail in doing this, so much of my work has been trial and error. Just recently I learned about the [email protected] and also about loginctl enable-linger. However to what degree they are related to setting up a user instance, I do not know. I set the user 'hans' to 'linger' using the loginctl enable-linger hans command, however I think I might have misunderstood the significance of the command in relation to what I am trying to do.
What I want to for user 'hans' to have his own service file, i.e. irssi.service, and start/stop/enable/disable/etc that service independently of the system. I realize that I could use sudo and configure it to only allow certain commands, and more than that have individual 'system' services for each user, i.e. hansirssi.service, janeirssi.service, joeirssi.service, etc., but I don't want to have to do that unless there is no other option.
So Question 1:
Is it possible to setup up systemd user instances as I envision it? Or have I misunderstood something?
My system:
[root@ru ~]# uname -a
Linux ru 3.5.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 15 08:12:04 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The system is installed in a Proxmox virtual machine with a virtio virtual HDD and standard setup. It is a headless system. I have a complete systemd conversion as per the wiki plus polkit 0.107-2 for use with 'loginctl'.
I tried:
[root@ru ~]$ systemctl enable [email protected]
The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled using systemctl.
[root@ru ~]$ systemctl start [email protected]
[root@ru ~]# systemctl status [email protected]
[email protected] - User Manager for hans
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]; static)
Active: active (running) since Fri, 21 Sep 2012 18:33:07 +0100; 42min ago
Main PID: 23189 (systemd)

CGroup: name=systemd:/user/hans/shared
â 23190 (sd-pam)
â systemd-23189
â 23189 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user
And on the user account hans I confirm that the service is running:
[hans@ru ~]$ systemctl status [email protected]
[email protected] - User Manager for hans
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]; static)
Active: active (running) since Fri, 21 Sep 2012 18:33:07 +0100; 13s ago

CGroup: name=systemd:/user/hans/shared
â 23190 (sd-pam)
â systemd-23189
â 23189 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd --user
But in regard to actually starting/stopping/enabling a user specific service, I keep getting this error:
[hans@ru ~]$ systemctl start dummyservice.service
Failed to issue method call: Access denied
and when I try by accessing the 'user' instance, I get the following error:
[hans@ru ~]$ systemctl --user

Why would dbus reject the 'messages', is there something I need to configure (permissions,...?) in order to get this to work?
I suspect that it is my lacking knowledge to blame for this problem, which is why I have sought help here.

Last edited by sunite (2012-09-21 18:17:35)I just went through the install process, read through the user-session-units doc, I was finally able to get the user instance working, no Dbus errors . However I decided to make sure and run 'dbus-monitor' within the user 'hans' and I got the following error message:
Failed to open private bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/user/1000/dbus/user_bus_socket: No such file or directory
I checked and there is no such file, however I checked the dbus.socket:

and as far as I can tell everything see alright there.

I just restarted the system to see if my symlink worked for the user-session service. It did, sort of, however the following error occured during boot:

I moved from an old macbook to a new one. I have installed Office for Mac 2011. I copied all my files from my old notebook onto a hard drive. On trying to setup my mail, i went into my hard drive and accessed microsoft user identities, office 2011 and it shows the database but wont let me select it. Its almost as if the file is there but not accessable. I desperately need to access my old mail. How do I do this? I am fairly confident that I copied all files off my old notebook. Is there a way for me to search for the Database file? Maybe I copied it to a different location? Urgent help please.
Hello mafrerichs and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Simplest way is to use Target Disk mode:

You could also pull the drive out of your MBP and use an external USB case or SATA - USB dongle to hook it to another Mac.

I keep getting an error message while trying to setup my imap Gmail and Aol accounts on my new ipad air. The error says user name or password is incorrect but I know for a fact they are correctly entered. How do I correct this?
Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

I just transferred data using migration assistant from a macbook pro to a macbook. I am trying to log back into the user that was on the pro but is now on the macbook with the same password as before, and it says my password is incorrect?
Suggest you try the password for the Macbook, not the previous one.

I'm runing WLS6.0 SP2 and I'm trying to set up a LDAP realm to talk to a openldap
server. I'm on Win2k and have it installed as a service.
I can connect to the server via a ldap browser, and I have a user in the ldap
tree with a clear text password.
I created a LDAP realm but I can't find where to configure WebLogic to use that
LDAP realm for authentication.
thanks
joeI guess they don't use the LDAP Realm in Weblogic, you should create your custom
realm that access to AD and return user/group enumerations, acl's, etc...
I'm able to access to AD using jdk1.4, and I have my custom realm, the only
problem is wl uses jdk1.3 (+jaas) and I couldn't connect to AD with the old jaas,
because it didn't support kerberos authentication. A more complete jaas it's included
in jdk1.4
Regards,
Marc

Great news, Scott. I hope you don't mind answering the three questions
below:
1. Which LDAP realm ***version*** did you use : V1 or V2?
2. Which LDAP realm type did you specify during the configuration: "MS

3. Did you encounter any problems during the integration?
Thanks a lot.

Somehow my last message got truncated. Here's the full deal:
We're trying to setup an LDAP realm in a microsoft-centric environment
(Windows 2000). All the documentation from BEA that I've found
talks
about MS Site Server, which, as near as I can find, is not an LDAPserver.
So - can I use MS Active Directory on Win2k? Is it functionally
the

thing? Does the MS template in LDAP Realm V2 support it? Does anyone
have success or horror stories about using AD?

Hello,
I have an issue that prevents me from choosing the alternate location of sync'ed OneDrive for Business folders. I'm trying to setup an alternate location for synchronization, using the guidelines found in the Office support web site.
The option to replace the default sync location appears the first time a SharePoint 2013 Library or OneDrive for Business is setup for synchronization.
Here would be a link to a snapshot (since my account has not been verified): /Forums/getfile/443247
At this point, the Library or personal OneDrive folder syncs correctly and the files are stored in the alternate choosen location.
However, on when trying to setup an additionnal Library for synchronization, the alternate sync location has not been saved and reverts to the default sync location. Furthermore, the option to replace the default sync location does no longer appear
on the dialog box.
Here would be a link to a snapshot (since my account has not been verified): /Forums/getfile/443249
I have tried by first sync'ing a SharePoint 2013 Library (instead of the personal OneDrive for Business folder) with the same result. Meaning that the first SharePoint 2013 Library correctly sync's in the alternate location of my choosing. However,
any subsequent attempts to sync either a SharePoint 2013 Library or the OneDrive for Business folder results in them being sync'ed to the original default location in a folder under the user's profile directory.
I'm using Office Professional Plus 2013 (64bits). The version of Groove.exe is 15.0.4605.1000 (12th March 2014 - 13 383 360 bytes).
Is there something I'm missing ?
Thanks for any help on this issue.Hi SpringComp,
You can change the root path for libraries you sync to your computer, though you can do this only if you’re not currently syncing any libraries. If you’re already syncing at least one library and you want to change the path, you must first
stop syncing all libraries. Then, the first time you run the OneDrive for Business wizard to sync a library to your computer, you’ll see an option to change the location.
More information, please refer to the link:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/support/change-the-location-where-you-sync-sharepoint-libraries-on-your-computer-HA102893480.aspx
I hope this helps.

I am trying to setup to secure a redirect public port to a private port
I i am trying to setup to secure a redirect public port to a private port to a Microsoft server exchange
A user coming from the outside(Untrusted security level 0) will connect to IIS server in the DMZ(Trusted security level 50) with a port 443 to a PIX 515 , the IIS server has a application called Detour Service(Service transparently reroutes any TCP connection from one IP Port to any other IP Port) will initiate a connection to Microsoft server exchange to the inside(trusted security level 100).
Do you think it is the right solution I term of security?yes or no, are do you have a better solutution
Thanks
User port destination 443(outside)>>>>>> IIS server port destination 9999(DMZ)>>>>>>>>>>> Microsoft server exchange(inside)Actually the connection from lower security level to higher security level is blocked. You can apply an access list to limit traffic from inside to outside, or allow traffic from outside to inside. For transparent firewall mode, you can also apply an EtherType access list to allow non-IP traffic.

i am trying to setup an airport express wirelessly. can this be done or do i have to have an ethernet cable pluged into it?
You can set up the Express using AirPort Utility and wireless only, but you must first log on to the default network that the Expess provides.....Apple Network xxxxxx....and then open AirPort Utility.
No password is required.
For most users, the Ethernet cable method is simpler....if you have a spare Ethernet cable handy. -
I am trying to setup port forwarding
I am trying to setup port forwarding for a mfi 5510l hotspot. I have made the changes on the hotspot but the hotspot doen't respond when tested. Can anyone help?
If you examine the About section of the Jetpack’s web style user interface, you should find that it has a reserved IP4 IP address. That means your Jetpack doesn’t connect directly to the public internet, your Jetpack is connected to Verizon’s private network. Your port forwarding has no affect on Verizon’s private network.
The standard recommendation is:
Purchase a public facing static IP address from Verizon for a one time fee of $500.
Use a VPN to go around the issue.
Use another ISP that provides a static IP address. -
Dear support @Apple,
I have tried to log in App Store with my Apple ID 3 times but never possible.
I have tried to change password 2 times.
It was successful.But soon after change of my password, I could not log in App store.
It says always incorrect user name or password. But I input correct ! Because just I successfully changed my password through secret question.
Third time when I tried to change password, the page did not open!
So I checked my connection by netstat , and I trace the IP address ; 17.154.66.17 this is apple IP, but when I trace , it did not show the route. I will copy

What it means??
Please help !!
To post this question, I tried thierd time to change password, and before I tried to log in to App store, I logged in this community, and I could !
Then I could finally log in App store also.
But still I feel something is wrong with my connection.
Why the trace route does not show to the apple site ?This is a user to user forum. Apple is not here. Apple does not answer questions here.

I'm signed in to my account on my macbook air's apple store, but when I try to update any apps, it has a locked in apple store user which is not mine. I have no idea where this user came from, but I need to update my apps and get this user off my computer. The users email is locked, it is grey in colour and I can not get it off. I've tried my system settings and the app store, logging in does not change the fact that there is a strange email there. I need help, please! I don't know if this is a hack or what, I brought my computer into the shop to get some work done so it may be their account, I just need the account removed.
You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
