User login access

I am developing a web page in DW8 that will allow users to
log into an account, and I want to be able to allow them to click
on certain links and add them to a "favorites" page specific to
that user. I am kind of new at this whole programming thing and
would really appreciate any help. Thanks.

Assuming that either your users are so bone-idle lazy that
they don't want
to use the Favorites button that has been provided with their
browser since
1995 or you're just an extremely nice and conscientious
developer (As you're
new, I'm guessing the latter), you will need to:
Check that they are logged in
Check that they are awake (OK, I just made this up. You can't
really do
this)
Get their UserID
Get the current page address
Write this to a table in the database (should be a separate
table from your
user accounts, linked by UserID in a 1-Many relationship)
You will obviously also need to present the list to the user
so that they
can click on a link when they build up the energy to do so.
How you do this will depend on which language you are using,
but there
should be plenty of examples for most languages. Just google:
<language>
<function>
Example: Google: ASP.NET get user
If you get stuck, just respond to the post or contact me
directly. I think
that you'll find this to be fairly easy to do, though.

My wife has a separate User Login. How can she access photos and documents on my User Account?

What do I need to do under my wife's user login so she can have access to photos and documents on my user account?

Move the data you want to share to the hard drive level Users/Shared folder and she will be able to access them. You may have to do a Get Info (command - I) on the folder and add her with read/write permissions, then select the gear at the bottom and Apply to enclosed items.

How to allow multiple users login to a MAC PRO without interruption?

I have a mac pro, which runs Yosemite, (2013 module) to be used as a server. However, I have difficult to let multiple users to use the mac simultaneously.
Objective:
    One person uses the mac directly on his desktop, while the others to login remotely though VNC from PC (win 7/Linux).
    The users have their own workspace, and they will not interrupt each other.
What I tried:
    I created two mange accounts on the MAC.
    Account 1 was used to directly login on the mac desktop.
    Account 2 was used to login to the mac from a PC though VNC. (I also tried this from a Centos workstation with the Tiger VNC viewer)
Problem:
When account 2 is login, the location monitor will automatically change to that account as well. Both accounts shared exactly the same screen, mouse & keyboard actions. It is impossible to let multiple users to use the MAC pro simultaneously without interruptions.
If I use "hdiutil attach" to mount a dmg file though SSH with account 2, the folder will automatically show in the local desktop login with account 1.
Question:
I read something about the "Per-user screen sharing". It says, "You can remotely log into a Mac with any user account on that computer and control it, without interrupting someone else who might be using the computer under a different login." Is it possible to do this from a PC or Linux client?
If the problem is simply due to the poor functionality of the build-in VNC service in Yosemite, I appreciate your help to suggest some other decent VNC server for Yosemite. I know the Vine Server (OSXvnc), but I failed to install it on the mac because it is incompatible with the Yosemite.
Does the SSH is supposed to work in this way in OSX? I mean the local account can see the folder mounted by another account though SSH.
If any specific version of Yosemite is required to allow multiple users to access a mac simultaneously? Just as the win 7 professional allow only one user to login in at each time. But with the remote desktop server of windows, multiple users are able to use the same computer at the same time without any problem.
If you familiar with any of the above questions, please help. Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.
I know the best way to get the solution is to direct call the apple support. However, it is really not easy to call them. Because it always results with long waiting time and then the people pick up the phone will transfer my call to an expert who will make me to describe the problem again.
Since I'm not interested in the technique details of all the problems, it is also grateful if you would provide a direct instruction to let me setup the computer for the purpose.
Thanks you very much for your kindly help.

I cannot help with the screen sharing, although I have just tried it with a RealVNC client on an iPad and it seemed to work OK.
However on the disk showing on all users desk tops have you unchecked the "ignore ownership on this volume" check box? You can check the drives permissions with CMD i command.

How open multiple responsibilities in the same user login session in R12 ?

Dear All,
Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?
Thanks..
Edited by: G-oracle on Sep 18, 2011 11:22 AM

Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?What do you mean by open multiple responsibilities in the same session? You can only see the menu of one responsibility at a time, so how to do you expect the application to let you see multiple responsibilities/menus in one session?
You could open another session and this way you can access more than one responsibility at the same time.
Thanks,
Hussein

When i login access manager with amdmin user, I can not find user that i has been created it in MySQL database. t
When the users are created through the dynamic profile, the default cn/sn are set to "default" , after creation you need to login to amconsole as amadmin and change/add proper values for these attributes.
Alternatively you can set the protected resource's policy subject to Authenticated users. This will work but not sure will meet your requirement

Using Session Variables for User Login - sometimes they don't persist... what am I doing wrong?

Hi all,
I'm running a site that requires user login. I approached the building of this site as almost a complete newb to CF (and dynamic coding in general), and it's been a great learing experience (with lots of help from you guys).
However, I guess I never learned the correct way to handle a user login. It seemed to me that I could just test the user-entered credentials against those stored in a database, then set a session variable containg that user's record number. Then, not only would I have an easy way of knowing who this user was and therefore what info to serve him, but I could test for the existence of a valid login on every page in the protected folder, by adding this code to my application.cfc in that folder:
<cfset This.Sessionmanagement=true>
<cfset This.Sessiontimeout="#createtimespan(0,8,0,0)#">
   <cfif NOT isDefined ("session.username") or NOT isDefined ("session.password") or NOT isDefined ("session.storeID")>
     <cflocation url="../index.cfm" addtoken="no">
   </cfif>
...and it goes on to run a query and verify that the session.username and session.password match for the store defined by session.storeID. If not, all session variables are cleared and it bounces you back to the login page. When the user clicks Logout, all I do is delete all the session variables.
This seemed to work great for like a year, but lately I've been getting reports that the login doesn't seem to persist for longer than approx. 20 minutes of inactivity. You can see I specified session variables to remain active for 8 hours (I know that seems like a drastically long login, but it's what's necessary for this application). I've only gotten this report from a few people, and I myself can't seem to duplicate it... I've tested an inactive login for 45 minutes now and it held.
SO: any reason you can think of why session variables would be spontaneously clearing for some people? Would having your router reset its IP address invalidate the session or something? Also, the problem seemed to begin appearing after my host upgraded all their servers to CF9... could there be any relation?
And on a more general note... did I go about this completely the wrong way to begin with? If so, what's the standard way to manage a login?
Lots of questions, I know... thanks very much for any answers or suggestions!
Joe

Ian,
Thanks very much - very helpful information.
Sounds like passing the tokens in every request is probably the way to go for this. I don't think it's likely that any users will be sharing links, unless they actually intend for the recipient to see their info anyway.
Is that all I would have to do, is add the tokens to every path? Would that guarantee that all the session variables would remain valid until timeout or being cleared?
Again, thanks, you've been really helpful.
Joe

Unfortunately this is the nature of HTTP web applications. There is NO state maintained from HTTP request to request. This is by design in the HTTP protocol specifications.
ColdFusion provides two methods to circumvent this limitation. Each method has limitations and caveats. They both rely on the passing of tokens between the client and the server with every request. These tokens can be passed as cookies OR URL (GET) variables. You are using the cookie method, which is the simpler and most common. You may be experiencing the limitation of this method. If something happens to the cookies the session can be lost.
You could pass the (CFID & CFTOKEN) OR JESSIONID tokens through the URL query string with every request. This requires one to add these values to every link, form action, cflocation or other request path in our application. ColdFusion provides the session.urltoken variable to make this easier to do. The tokens will be visible to the user. Also if the links with an individual token is share with other users, via e-mail, chat, social networks, etc and one of these users utilize the link during the life of a session (8 hours apparently in your case). Then that user will access the session of the original user.
Cookie session management is by far the most common choice by CF developers. If these methods do not meet your needs you would need to go beyond the HTTP limitations of web applications. One might be able to accomplish this with a Flex|Air|Flash applications that can be configured to use a continuous connection to the server. Thus not suffer the stateless nature of the normal HTTP request-response cycle.
I do not know if a router resetting would cause cookies to be discarded or otherwise invalidated. But I would not think it is beyond the relm of possibilities.

How can I restrain the user login portal once, in the same time ???

Hi
I need to restrain the user can't repeat to login portal ....
to reduce portal loading
How can I restrain the user login portal once, in the same time???
Which attributs in Identity Manager or amconsole I can do it to restrain the user ??
tks

Does your portal support anonymous access? If so, make sure you are using the authlessanonymous mode. This mode only creates one session that is shared for all anonymous users. This is much more efficient than anonymous access, which creates a session for each anonymous user.
I have no other recommendation for limiting users to a single login. In general, web applications do not behave like this. What if a user closes their browser without logging out? Does the user have to wait until the session times out in order to log back in again?
The same thing is true for users that are mobile. If a user leaves their office without logging out and then attempts to log in with a laptop in the conference room, then access will be denied in your implementation. Users do not expect this type of limitation being built into the system.
If you are having problems scaling, then you need to look at your architecture and perhaps add some more resources. Also, make sure you are making efficient use of the authlessanonymous access mode as stated above.

How difficult to create a user login area, and where to start?

I have a website which I created in Microsoft Expression Web 4. I would like to add a user login area and tie it to an existing SQL database which is updated frequently. I am not sure where to start or how likely I am to succeed. It is for a client's
website, so I am willing (and hopefully able) to learn, but do not want it to turn into a long drawn out project.
I can code in html and css and use java scripts. I don't know visual basic or how to work within the database (it will be provided by the client). I'm open to any advice on how easy or difficult this will be without other forms of coding knowledge, and would
love any advice on the best place to start. I have found some tutorials and downloaded MS Visual Studio Express 2013, since it was coming up as the best program for this.
Thank you for any advice!

You want to create a login in SQL? any way you need one to access the database. You may need to contact your DBA to do it as you maynot be authorized to do it. Use below link to know creating SQL logins/Users.

Is there a way to get a user login record after sleep?

I know that by opening terminal and typing in "last" (without the quote marks) that it will give me about a 3 week record of who has logged on my computer after shutdowns and restarts.
What I want to know is this:
a) Is there a way to get a user login record after the computer only goes to sleep?
b) is there a way to get the terminal to go back further than just 3 weeks or so for the shutdown/restart records?
Is there software that might do this???
Thanks in advance, this is important for me.

Thanks, Dave: so this is what I type in the terminal? "ls -l /var/log/wtmp*" (without the quotes). And how do you unzip something that has been "gzipped"?
"man gzip" will give you the details for using gzip
My first question can be explained this way: To get into the computer when it is coming out of sleep you need to type in a password, then it opens to the desktop. Is there a way I can find out the times over the course of a day/week/month that this is being done? i.e., is there a log being made somewhere of when the computer is being opened and signed onto after being asleep?
When you wake the computer from a sleep, you are not logging in again so there will be
no record of the event as a "login"
My computer possibly could be used by a few other people that have access to my computer password (don't ask why) and I basically want to know if they are signing on when I am away from my desk.
You may want to look at /var/log/asl.log or /var/log/secure.log which contain details of
authentication attempts (which is what you are doing) and failures.
I am not asking why you have multiple people accessing your computer with your password --
but consider setting up separate username, it is a lot easier to manage and you will probably
not be asking questions like this one.

How to restore from time machine for another user login

I use time machine to back my computer which has multiple user login.
First I set up time machine backup using User A. I checked that User B files in the hard disk is also backed up, and I can restore using User B login.
Then I changed the hard disk today and all users I need to recreate again.
After recreating users, I found that User A can restore files from time machine backup.
However, files originally under User B cannot be restored using either User A and User B. The error message is
"The folder “Documents” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents."
Anyone can help?

Not sure if this is related enough, but I just wrestled trying to restore from time machine too, trying to reinstall 10.5.8 after putting a new HD in my MBP, 2006 vintage.
That took sooooo long to get back to where I was before swapping disks; what did the trick was ordering a free copy of Snow Leopard install disk (free due to Apple trying to push people from idisk to icloud) which was rushed FedEx (yay) and which allowed me to access Time Machine where my ancient original OSX install disk had not.
And all it took was 2 weeks of cursing!

Best Practice in maintaining multiple apps and user logins

Hi,
My company is just starting to use APEX, and none of us (the developers) have worked on this before either. It is greatly appreciated if we can get some help here.
We have developed quite a few applications in the same workspace. Now, we are going to setup UAT and PRD environments and also trying to understand what the best practice is to maintain multiple apps and user logins.
Many of you have already worked on APEX environment for sometime, can you please provide some input?
Should we create multiple apps(projects) for one department or should we create one app for one department?
Currently we have created multiple apps for one department, but, we are not sure if a user can login once and be able to access to all the authenticated apps.
Thank you,
LC

LC,
I am not sure how much of this applies to your situation - but I will share what I have done.
I built a single 700+ page application for my department - other areas create separate smaller applications.
The approach I chose is flexible enough to accomdate both.
I built a separate access control application(Control) in its own schema.
We use database authenication fo this app - an oracle account is required.
We prefer to use LDAP for authentication for the user applications.
For users that LDAP is not option - an encrypted password is stored - reset via email.
We use position based security - priviliges are based on job functions.
We have applications, appilcations have roles , roles have access to components(tabs,buttons,unmasked card numbers,etc.)
We have positions that are granted application roles - they inherit access to the role components.
Users have a name, a login, a position, and a site.
We have users on both the East Coast and the West Coast, we use the site in a sys_context
and views to emulate VPD. We also use the role components,sys_contexts and views to mask/unmask
card numbers without rewriting the dependent objects(querys,reports,views,etc.)
The position based security has worked well, when someone moves,
we change the position they are assigned to and they immediately have the privileges they need.
If you are interested I can rpovide more detail.

User login with details

hi guys,
was need to come out a report for the user login details. which has to have the date and time of the user login to SAP, with the terminal ID access from and transaction has done. can any one tell me what table it is from? or is there existing report that i can view all this? thanks

hi,
you can find the transactions by a particular user from the transaction SM04.
SM04 gives you the details of the users logged in,terminals,transactions the user is working on, the time he has logged in,no of sessions user has opened, and the memory used by the user's programs... all of that w.r.t to the client we login. but we can't get info like date and number of times the user has logged in.
U can see tables:
USR01 User master record (runtime data)
USR02 Logon data
USR03 User address data
USR05 User Master Parameter ID
USR12 User master authorization values
You can also use transaction code ST03N.
1. Go to tx code - ST03N
2. Under "Workload" you can select your "Instance or Total" so that it expands and shows you Days, Week, Month.
3. If you want to look at the transactions executed for a particular day, lets say, then double click on any day.
4. At the bottom left you get "Analysis Views"
5. Select & expand "User and Settlement Statistics"
6. Double click on "User Profile"
7. On the right side of the window you get a list of all the users
8. Double click on a particular user you want to view the details of.
9. The new screen will display the "Transactions/Reports Utilized by User XXX"
If you want to track which users executed a particular transacation then follow this:
10. In "Analysis Views" expand "Transaction Profile"
11. Double click on "Standard"
You can view the list of Transactions and Reports.
12. Double click on the Tx Code or Report you wanna check and it will show the Use of it.
hope this is helpful

Anonymous User Login

Hi All,
I have an issue with 'Forgot Password' button in the end user login. When a Forgot Password button is clicked, a Question Login workflow will trigger (I think I am right?) .Now I would like to customize the 'Question Login' workflow as per my requirements, but unfortunately I am not, I modified the system configuration object, but still with no luck I am not able to customize that workflow.
So I thought of using anonymous login page and I can launch my own workflow as per my requirements. I have registered my workflow at 'anonymous end user tasks'. and I try to launch the anonymous login page using the url 'http://localhost:8080/idm/user/anonlogin.jsp'. I am getting the following errors.
An unrecoverable error has occurred processing the request. Contact your system administrator.
Syslog ID = LG-1111-024933.
Only the Reset Administrator may access this view.
I don't know, where I am doing wrong. For the first time I am trying to use anonymous login page.
Did anybody faced similar problems?
Can anybody please post some points, like what is the procedure to use a Anonymous login page?
Thanks in advance

Well, first, I visited Configure > User Interface, and enabled Anonymous Enrollment.
Next, I went to user/login.jsp, and saw "Request Account". I clicked on it, and up popped the user/anonEnrollment.jsp page. (I was looking at using this for one of our requirements; turned out I didn't need it, and did something else).
Anyway, a quick check with Live HTTP Headers for Firefox shows that the post was directly to anonEnrollment.jsp; anonEnrollment.jsp has this at the top:
String anonUser = LoginHelper.getAnonymousUser(session);
if (anonUser == null) {
    String url = "user/login.jsp";
    LoginHelper.redirect(req, out, url);
    return;
}Not a huge amount of help. However, it does establish that there is an "getAnonymousUser" method, which is documented to return "the currently registered anonymous user name if any". And reading the Workflows, Forms, and Views manual, it states that the anonymous main page is for "... when a user who does not have a Identity Manager account logs in, an Identity Manager user object is created ...". Basically, if you're using pass through auth, and have a source system that will let a user authenticate, they can then set themselves up.
So, I visited "anonmain.jsp" after clearing all cookies, and up popped "anonlogin.jsp", with a login box. I entered "anonymous", and lo!, I was logged in, and saw the anonymous user menu. In other words, I was "provisionally" logged in with an account that doesn't really exist (anonymous).
However, I had to provide that extra bit of information, namely, my "fake" user name of "anonymous". I don't know how you'd do that without JSP customization.
Basically, "anonymous" means "has a username, but we don't have an account", rather than "truely anonymous" as near as I can tell. The system will do it for you in the case of "Request Account" (the generated login page has some Javascript code to redirect to anonEnrollment.jsp), but it doesn't seem to be an exposed API.
You might get somewhere with customizing the "Request Account" string in the messages catalogue, and then customizing the anonymous enrollment workflow.

Last user login

Hi all ,
I need to shutdown a few databases, but before that i need to know the users who had used it and when did they use it.
How to go about it ?
I checked and found dba_users view , but that will not give me the information of the last user login with the date.
Other option is select * from dba_audit_session;
but for that also , I am not sure if auditing is enabled or not.. Need to check on that.. Also this is my homework that i am doing for the database whose access i will get in a while.. so dont even know the version. All i know is that itys on windows machine.
any suggestion/help would be appreciated
KKuKreja

Hi,
If you want to check who all are accessing the database just before the shutdown you can check the v$session.
COLUMN username FORMAT A15
col osuser for a15
col module for a15
COLUMN machine FORMAT A30
col program for a20
COLUMN logon_time FORMAT A20
SELECT NVL(s.username, '(oracle)') AS username,
       s.osuser,
       s.sid,
       s.serial#,
       p.spid,
       s.status,
       s.module,
       s.terminal,
       s.machine,
       s.program,
       TO_CHAR(s.logon_Time,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') AS logon_time
FROM   v$session s,
       v$process p
WHERE s.paddr = p.addr
and s.username not in '(oracle)'
ORDER BY s.username, s.osuser;But if you want to know who all have accessed till now, auditing is necessary.
Well, little weird, but if you are on 10g and above check the v$active_session_history where you have 'machine' column.You can get all the distinct machine names from which the connections came to the database.
