Users and Groups displayed twice in OAM

We have configured OID in OAM as identity server. Seems successful but I am able to see twice all the users , groups in OAM.
Please give some ideas how to trouble shoot the same.

Since we aren't using EM I had to find an other way. And I found it.
In web.xml ADF Security (I suppose) automaticly adds 'valid-users'. In my weblogic.xml I added my enterprise role as a principal to 'valid-users' and this works for me.
Thanks for the help.

Admin Console not displaying new Users and Groups from LDAP

We created a new Realm in WebLogic, which specifies the location of the Netscape
LDAP server. Our Weblogic application, called TGSLC, is able to find the ldap
server to use for authentication. My problem is this- the Admin Console is not
displaying the new users and groups from the LDAP server. Shouldn't the WebLogic
Admin Console display any users and groups specified in the ldap server, which
is referenced in the customized Realm?

Hi Andy,
I am not sure why you are unable to see the users and groups through the
console., you should be able to. Can you post the config.xml?
thanks,

WINDOWS 8.1 - System Tools no longer displaying User and Group Settings after adding a new LOCAL user.

I jumped on my parents computer, which is on a domain. I added a new local user(with my live.com login) and gave it admin status. That's when the trouble began.
The main user profile disappeared. I used the command prompt fix (see other fixes) to add the missing user back into admin. I logged back in, and it set up the account for the first time (WTF?). I cannot access any files from the main account
(that I logged into just fine before to get this debacle started.)
When going to Local Computer Management --> System Tools, my users and groups tool is missing.
I ran lusrmgr.msc only to find out that the most current version of Windows 8.1 and this is what it said "This snapin may not be used with this edition of Windows 8.1. To manage user accounts for this computer, use the User Accounts tool in the
Control Panel." <---- Awesome! (that was sarcasm.)
I have spent over two hours in the User Account tool during the course of this problem only to prove that a picture of a computer is more useful that that "tool".
To anyone reading this ticket, the best advice I can offer you (as long as its not a crucial machine) is to back up what you can gain access to, format your hard-drive and reinstall windows and start over again. I wouldn't recommend reinstalling 8.1,
I would say go back to 7 and wait until 10 comes out. Windows 8 is the new Vista. Good luck!

Hello AhavahOlam,
I can understand your feelings.
If my understanding is right, after adding a new local user in domain-joined Windows 8.1, you can’t open the local users and groups.
Can you still add account by going to Control Panel\User Accounts and Family Safety\User Accounts\Manage Accounts?
As this computer is domain-based, it is recommended to contact the domain administrator to see if the option is blocked.

Users and Group in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I am trying to bind LDAP with OBIEE 11G. I am using following Rittman Blog
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/11/oracle-bi-ee-11g-security-integration-with-microsoft-active-directory/
whenever i click USERs and GROUPs it takes a hell of time(more than 30 mins) to display users and groups, Please suggest if any thing can be done abou it
All other tabs and setting are working fine.
I did not find any thing in Adminserver.log
Please suggest
Regards
Saurabh

Hi Kishore,
In 'All User Filter' field is left blank
In 'User Name Attribute' I filled sAMAccountName.
Also i check Adminserver-stdout log, the one which we create after we create windows services. There i can see following error
Jan 18, 2012 6:00:16 PM GMT+05:30> <Error> <Console> <BEA-240003> <Console encountered the following error java.lang.RuntimeException: netscape.ldap.LDAPException: Server or network error (81); Cannot contact LDAP server
I guess its not able to connect LDAP server. But I checked all the attribues twice (on 10G LDAP configuration) they are working. I am not sure if there is problem in attributes or there is some setting I am not aware about.
Please suggest!

WLS Users and Groups interface questions / observations

I'm new to WLS, having just installed OBIEE 11g for the first time. There are some oddities in WLS around setting up Users that I'd like to ask about, to see if I'm just missing something, or if the interface really IS this bad. Please feel free to comment in any way, or to correct any statements that are erroneous. Here goes:
1. The use of Previous and Next buttons instead of a vertical scroll bar for finding users and groups in their respective lists. What if you have several hundred users, and the one you want to modify starts with the letter 'Z'? That means clicking the Next button several dozen times. (Security Realms … myrealm … Users and Groups … Users) Not only is there no scroll bar, there's no search box either. The only way to get to a user near the end of the alphabetical listing is the Next button. Is that correct?
2. After adding a new user, what's the next most logical thing to want to do? How about assigning that user to Groups? So why do I have to click Next several times to find that new user in the alphabetical list? I don't see a sortable 'Date Modified' field for the table of users, nor a link to the "Most Recently Added" user. Nor can I assign groups during the same action as creating the user. In the example in #1, I might have to click Next several dozen times to get to the user I just added. Is that correct?
3. When creating a new User, immediately after clicking New, where is the most likely place that I'd want to go? How about the Name field? Right now, the cursor rests in some indeterminate location. I have to hit the Tab key 14 times, or move the mouse into the Name box and click it. The active cursor position does not default to the Name box when creating a new user. Is that correct?
4. I don't see a 'Create Like' button for creating Users, so that existing group membership can be easily replicated. I'd like to be able to add a new employee by clicking to highlight an existing user from the same department, clicking a 'Create Like' button, then entering a new user name and password, with all group memberships assigned automatically based on the source user. The same could be said for replicating groups. I don't think that exists. Is that correct?
5. I don't see a clean way to return to the User list on the page on which I clicked a user name. Imagine that I'm going through my entire list of users one at a time to set an attribute. I click on the user JSMITH and set the attribute. The only way to get back to JSMITH's page and select the next user list is to hit the browser's back button three times, or to click the Users and Groups breadcrumb at the top of the screen and use the Next link multiple times to find that page again. Is that correct?
6. I don't see a way to bring up a Group and assign Users to it from a list. It appears that the only way to assign a User to a Group is to access a User profile and click Groups. If we're creating a new group that has 200 users selected from a list of 500 users, that could potentially represent somewhere between 5000 and 10000 mouse clicks. It would be much more efficient to be able to bring up a group, then select its members from a list of users. That does not appear to be possible. Is that correct?
7. It also appears that when assigning groups for Users, the list of Available Parent Groups sorts the lowercase entries after all uppercase entries, so that groups that start with the letter 'a' fall after groups that start with 'Z'. That is not the case with the list of users. The User table uses a case-insensitive sort. Is that correct?
8. When I want to delete more than one User, and the ones that I want to delete are on different pages, there appears to be no way to select those users from multiple pages at the same time. So, imagine that I have 500 users, and I want to delete two users, one of whom is listed on page 48, and the other on page 50. I would have to click the Next button 47 times to find the first user and delete it. At that point, the interface returns to page 1, and I have to click the Next button 49 times to reach the second user. Is that correct?

Hi,
Regarding your first question, you might want to press the "Customize this table" button, then select the maximum allowed amount of rows in "Number of rows displayed per page:" that would resolve some of the problems you're having with the interface. I do think this is not a great graphical tool, and there are some usability issues.
Regarding the adding of users to groups, it seems the way you describe is the only way of doing it, however you could try using a script instead of the graphical console, the easiest way of making it is adding a user to a group while using the "Record" button on the top of the screen to get a wlst script to use as a model, then create a new script with all new users you want to add/modify.
Regards,
Franco.

Everything I look up for Event ID 1085 seems to be about a different cause.
Any ideas?

I enabled tracing on a domain gpo and I still get the error when running gpupdate /force .
I'm also still getting Event 1085. Here's the trace file. I've anonymized the site/domain and the GUIDs.

User and group names truncated with ls

Hello,
When using the 'ls -l' command the resulting list truncates user and group names that are longer than 8 characters.
Is this a know issue?
I'm running Mac OS 10.4.10.
Thanks,
Anthony

If a program like "ls" wants to know the username corresponding to the uid, it must call a library function of the operating system. But there are two library functions, one gives the correct username and the other truncates the username.
The basic library function is getpwuid(3) which returns the correct username.
Hello Jun,
I ran a search using Xfind (Rixstep) on /bin for 'userfromuid' and /bin/ls was listed as I might of expected.
Also, /bin/ls was also listed when 'getpwuid' was used as a search Key.
Peeking further into /bin/ls further with Xstrings (which is Rickstep's "adaptation" of the "strings' tool" ) reveals the string '_ getpwuid'.
Does this mean that at some point the 'ls' command can call the getpwuid() directly under some circumstances rather than going through userfromuid() which relies on the cache you mentioned?
The problem is the size of the table; userfromuid() allocates only 8
characters for each username (the number 8 comes from UT_NAMESIZE in /
usr/include/utmp.h), and truncates the username if it is longer. This
may be "fixed" in a future version; or it may not be "fixed" to keep
backward compatibility. I'm not sure.
I've heard that utmpx.h has 'UTXUSERSIZE' which is defined as 32. Does not that allow for user and group names larger than 8 characters?
By the way, I can't find the directory usr/include/utmp.h on my drive.
Is there a way to reset or redefine this 'UT_NAMESIZE' field to more than 8 characters wherever the userfromuid() function stores it?
The commands "users", "who", and "w" read the file /var/run/utmp, in
which truncatd usernames of the currently logged-in users are saved.
Does some command initially call the function as 'ls', userfromuid(), to result in truncated names being saved in file /var/run/utmp as well?
I think there are many programs which depend on this fixed-width utmp
file, so it may not be "fixed" in a future version. "
I believe there are third party tools which rely on the userfromuid() call which require this bug to be fixed in order to display accurate user and group name data.
Thanks for your informative reply,
Anthony

How to reset users and groups in Server.app?

Recently after change settings in the Server.app (like turn off/on open directory, delete/add certificates), I got a strange problem:
In the users and groups list, it display all local users and groups (looks like system users and groups, about 100 users and groups, but this is a new server)
I tried reset the server.app by following
howto reinstall/reinitialize os x server
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT200271?viewlocale=en_US
These users and groups still showing there.
Have you seen this before and how can I completely reset the server.app to factory default so that I can start over the set up?

In theory, that should restore the users. You can do some surgery if you are really brave. But the reinstall generally should be enough.
These accounts are in the DSLocal data store. Basically, this is very similar to the any OS X machine. Apple keeps a default copy of the Local Database here:
/System/Library/DirectoryServices/DefaultLocalDB/Default
Should you need to reset a machine to the default local database, you can remove the current database (/var/db/dslocal/nodes/Default) and then copy the default one to the same location. I would not go this far unless the reinstall was unsuccessful.
To check, you can run this command:
dscl . list /Users
That will list all the Users in the local DB. To get a count, pipe to wc
dscl . list /Users | wc -l
On a Server that I just jumped on, I see 79 users and 111 groups (dscl . list /Groups | wc -l) But this is a system will man SACL groups so I likely have more than the default.
Hope this continues to help. Probably more info that you want.

Using users and groups from LDAP in ADF application

Hi there,
I'm using WebLogic Server 10.3.5.0 and JDev 11.1.2.3.0.
I configured my WL server to use the users and groups defined in my LDAP server (they display when I select the Users or Groups tab). So this works fine (I think).
Now I want to use 1 group, let's call the group ApplicationGroup, and all it's users to give them access to my ADF Application.
But I can't find proper/up-to-date info about how to do this.
I tried 2 major things:
1) I configured ADF Security to use Authentication and Authorization. Defined an Enterprise Role with the same name as in my WL server (so ApplicationGroup) then defined a
Application Role with a custom name and added the Enterprise Role to it. That Application Role I gave access to all my TF's and Web Pages. When I deploy this, It just doesn't work (Migrate Users and Groups is not checked).
2) Used the Authentication option in the ADF Security and the rest is the same as in 1). This works +-, I can login with all users so the role mapping isn't configured right I guess?
Any help or documentation that could help me?

Since we aren't using EM I had to find an other way. And I found it.
In web.xml ADF Security (I suppose) automaticly adds 'valid-users'. In my weblogic.xml I added my enterprise role as a principal to 'valid-users' and this works for me.
Thanks for the help.

Manage Users and -groups

Hi all,
I try to manage Users and -groups not with workspace administration but by HTML_UTIL. So I need to display all of the Usergroups and select mor than one group for a user and insert/edit this groups for the user.
How can I select mor than 1 item from a LOV? and use it with HTML_UTIL.CREATE_USER and HTML_UTIL.EDIT_USER
Thanks for yout help

Not sure if this is what you're asking, but certainly, one of the things you'd need to do is write your own PL/SQL procedure that loops through the selected rows of your UI element (whether it be a multi-select list, checkboxes or whatever) and perform the actions that you require.
Have you attempted anything yet? What parts of this do you need help with?

LDAP User and Group import

My client has OAM as SSO provider. They want the LDAP Agent to import only users and groups but not the group memberships.
What setting should I Use for LDAP authentication ?

I have below changes in files
1] In jps-config.xml
-- Added identity store and selected it from drop down in Security Context tab.
2] In weblogic-application.xml
In Security tab --> Role assignment mapped valid-users to principle name.
<security>
<realm-name>myrealm</realm-name>
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>valid-users</role-name>
<principal-name>DERDev</principal-name>
</security-role-assignment>
</security>
3] Same thing done in weblogic.xml . I do not know the difference between weblogic-application.xml and weblogic.xml configuartion and which will work.
4] Added security role "DERDev" along with the default/automatically added role "valid users"
<security-role>
<role-name>DERDev</role-name>
</security-role>
Still no luck ...... i am missing again ? I referred many links but found not a single document mentioning all steps

:USER and :GROUP session variables

Hi,
Please let me know the purpose of :USER and :GROUP variables. I have gone thru obiee docs but not understand clearly about these session variables.
regards
CK

If you have to display a welcome message in a dashboard page with the user name, you can refer the USER session variable in the request. It will automatically get substituted with the log on name of the user
Also you can use these variables in Authentication, authorization and data filters.

Hi I do not want iTunes to open up automatically when I turn on my macbook pro. I tried going to System Preferences Users and Groups Login Items and then I took iTunes off the list but it still opens up automatically when I turn on my laptop.

Hi r,
Make sure you close iTunes before shutdown. And you're quite welcome.

I am trying to stop programs from opening automatically when I turn my computer on. I tried system preferences users and groups login items...then I deleted them from the list but it did nothing.

Hi r,
It sounds like you're running Lion?

How to change default /Users and /Groups to different Volume?

Users are created in /Volumes/<boot>/Users and groups in /Volumes/<boot>/Groups.
We need these to be created on a different volume, eg., /Volumes/External/Users, and /Volumes/External/Groups.
Setup Assistant correctly put user Backups into */Volumes/External/Shared Items/Backups* and also correctly put web services on /Volumes/External/ServiceData -- we want to do the same for Groups and Users.
Groups are the most critical, as the group needs bulk storage. Users we could leave as is if it can't be done.
How can this be configured? We've read File Server Admin, Open Directory Admin, and Advanced Server admin from http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/documentation.html without finding an answer.
Thanks in advance.

1. Create new folders on the external volume to hold users and groups, but to prevent confusion name them something other than "Users" and "Groups". /Volumes/External/NetUsers and /Volumes/External/NetGroups would be reasonable choices.
2. Share both of these folders (in Server Admin -> server name in sidebar -> File Sharing -> Volumes & Browse modes -> select each folder -> click Share near the top right).
3. Enable both folders for automounting on clients (Server Admin -> server name in sidebar -> File Sharing -> Share Points-> select each folder -> Share Point tab under that -> Enable Automount option) with the default options (Directory: /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1, Protocol: AFP, Use for: User home folders and group folders). Be sure to click Save (not just OK in the dialog).
4. To migrate users, run Workgroup Manager, and change the home location for the users you want to move (select Accounts in the toolbar -> /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 from the hidden pop-up menu under that -> User icon tab at the left -> select the user(s) you want to change -> Home tab on the right -> select the NetUsers option from the "Where" list). Then, for each user, run this command on the server: "sudo cp -Rp /Users/username /Volumes/External/NetUsers".
5. Similarly, move Group folders in WGM (Accounts -> /LDAP... -> Groups icon on left -> select groups to move -> Group Folder tab on right -> NetGroups in the list). Then, for each group, run "sudo cp -Rp /Groups/groupname /Volumes/External/NetGroups".
6. Test to make sure all is working before deleting the old user and group folders from /Users and /Groups (do NOT delete /Users and /Groups themselves, just the individual folders from under them).

Users and Groups displayed twice in OAM
