Users for searching catalogs - password problem

Hello all,
we have separate generic users for searching through catalogs instead of adding role to each requestor. (if you remember on SRM260 this was one of the proposals, to use CATSEARCH user)
This user is defined as Dialog and as company policy is to change user password each three months, we are in problem with search users because nobody is logging with them directly thus nobody knows when is time to change password.
Is there any possibility to exclude such users from change password policy.
TIA
Gordan

Hi Gordan,
I think that a "service" user should avoid pwd expiration...
Kind regards,
Yann

  • Any fix for the "remembering passwords" problem with MAIL?

    I've been following the other threads on this topic. I am a new Mac user (all of 5 days) with 10.5.2 preinstalled on a macbook pro, so this is not a migration problem. Applecare has been unable to resolve the issue. My setup is a Verizon FIOS POP account. I've tried all the repairing, creating keychain suggestions. My incoming and outgoing accounts function properly, then they mysteriously forget the login credentials. Is there any fix for this, this seems absurd coming from a PC background? Thanks.

    I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
    Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to find help for Apple Mail password problem -- using CLEAR/Verizon

    I've established an alias e-mail address through Apple Mail.  I've lost the password.  Apple "Help" tells me to ask internet provider.  But I only have a cell phone so Verizon doesn't allow me to ask my question.  I use CLEAR to connect through Verizon.
    This is confusing.  I don't know where to go with this issue.

    What is the domain for the email address? You need to get help from the email provider.

  • Prompt for a username/password while accessing a resource in wls 6.0

    Hi all, I want to restrict access to any resource on my weblogic

    WL 6.0 doesnot support URL based access control directly but you can read on

    they helped me to restrict access to certain url's by prompting user for
    username and password

    Prabhat,
    You can restrict access to deployed resources by specifying the access
    constraints in the deployment descriptors. For things without
    deployment descriptors, you can use the console.

  • Why can't I enter single user mode on my Mac Mini for an admin password reset?

    Hi,
    I recently created a new user account for my mac and deleted the old one, not realising that this was the only account with admin priveleges. As such, I no longer have access to administrator priveleges, and cannot grant them to my new user account.
    I have tried to boot in single user mode and recovery mode but neither command results in any reaction on the part of my computer.
    This thread follows on from a previous, unrelated disscussion:
    BDAqua: If you hold alt key at bootup do you see a lock in the middle?
    Yenots: No...what does this mean?
    BDAqua: If it did, it would mean Firmware Password Protection was enabled, which prevents booting in other modes, so that's not the problem, are you using a wired Mac KB, or Windows KB?
    Yenots: I'm using an 'Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad' [ http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MB110B/B/apple-keyboard-with-numeric-keypad-br itish ]
    If you find me here BDAqua, hit me with your knowledge!
    Any other contributions are welcome and, now we're under the right heading, will hopefully help other users who have encountered this problem.
    Thanks, Cristo

    Hi,
    Thanks for the link to MacPilot, and the sexy screenshot. I found an archived version for 10.4 on the koingosw website. That solves getting into single user/safe mode. Though I'd be interested to see whether sudo nvram boot-args="-s" will result in single user boot.
    As for creating administrator priveleges for my new user account, I've found a method which looks good:
         \single user mode\
         cmd-s
         \mount drive\
         mount -uw
         \open 'directory access'\
         lauchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.opendirectory.plist
         \list users\
         ls /Users
         \change password\
         dscl . passwd /Users/<username> <password>
    I think that this method intends that if I change the root users password I'll be changing the administrator password  (as root is the only user with administrator priveleges), and subsequently be able to change my new user accounts priveleges using 'netinfomanager'. But I'm not 100%. Could you give me your opinion on this?
    Furthermore, three keys 'L' 'O' and '(' aren't working on my keyboard, which means I can't try this until I find an intact keyboard to borrow. I was thinking maybe a mod version of the above instructions would work in terminal using sudo, so I could use the keyboard viewer to type the missing characters. If you have any ideas on constructing such a mod I would be interested to hear them.
    Otherwise, Thank You for your help BDAqua! And enjoy your summer wherever you are.

  • ITunes will not open in Windows 7 for one User. All I get is the Licence Agreement pane and when I click YES nothing further happens. I have set up a second user and iTunes opens without problem in that User window.

    Clearly something is blocking the main user(administrator) from opening the iTunes programme and I cannot find a solution.

    Many thanks for your reply. Yes I carried out the suggested procedure in safe mode , which did not resolve the issue and so this is what led me to set up a second User account. iTunes opened without problem in this second account and so I looked at the User-specific troubleshooting but I just could not locate the iTunes Preference files no matter how much searching I did.
    I also tried uninstalling and re-installing but the problem persists. Would be very grateful for any further advice.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
    If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • Users prompted for username and password after sharing removed from servers

    Hello Community
        On Sharepoint 2010 Server using the UI in a 2 server farm with an intranet running on it and everything functions as it should.  However it was noticed that from a users computer when in "Windows Explorer" if "Network"
    is clicked the 2 servers are visible.
        The problem is that when the server are clicked on in Windows Explorer the files and folders on the hard drive of the servers are visible too.
        Subsequently I logged onto the server and when into "Properties' - "Sharing" and
    unchecked the checkbox to "Share this folder".
        That solved the problem of the users being able to see and access the files
    and folders on servers hard drives but now when the users log onto the intranet
    they are prompted for a user name and password and even when they provide the user
    name and password and the page is returned the prompt appears on the screen again(then they cancel out).
        What can be done about the user being prompted for username and password without sharing the drives on the servers ?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    What exactly was shared out from the SharePoint server's file system? There are certain things that are shared by default.

  • Outlook asking for username and password, but only for some users

    Hello, I'm
    in an Exchange Server 2013 client
    environment, two CAS servers
    and two Mailbox.
    Some users are having trouble in Outlook 2007
    and 2012, which is directly
    requesting the user name and password, not all,
    just some.
    The Active Directory is ok,
    DNS and also own Exchange
    servers apparently do not see errors.
    Has anyone here ever experienced this?
    How can I solve this problem?
    As this happens only to some users
    and the vast majority have no problems, so
    difficult to find the cause.
    Thank you!
    Ivanildo Teixeira Galvão

    Hi Ivanildo,
    From your description, only some users have an issue that Outlook prompts for username and password. In your case, I recommend you compare the normal and problematic Outlook settings. Here is the Outlook settings in my environment for your reference:
    1. "Always prompt for logon credentials" isn't checked.
    2. Logon network security using Negotiate Authentication.
    3. "Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP" is checked.
    4. Use the NTLM Authentication when connecting to my proxy server for Exchange.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.

  • Problem with iWeb asking for username and password to access my public site

    Today for some reason anyone trying to access my site is being asked for username and password. I have made no changes that would require a password. My site has always been public.

    I am having the same problems. My site is public, I checked the settings on the public folder on MobileMe to ensure that it was public and did not require password protection either. But for some odd reason, even though I didn't change anything, my site's pages seem to require a user name and password to get into them. If one continues to click cancel, the page continues to load.
    This does not happen every single time, but it happens more often than not. I have tried this with my iMac, Macbook, as well as my iPod Touch, and I get this on all machines. My brother has tried logging in from another location using his Macbook Pro, and he gets the password prompt as well.
    I tried turning on password protection to the site and uploading the changes, then disabling password protection and reupping the changes once again. I've tried uploading entire site, instead of just changes, but the problem continues to persist. I definitely need this issue solved since this site is important to me.
    The site url is: http://www.globalwinetour.com
    Does anyone have any suggestions to rectify this, or does anyone have any idea what is causing it? Am I missing something here? Am I doing something wrong? Please help me out!
    Many thanks in advance!
