Using java to retrieve windows password

Is there any way to get Java to retrieve the windows password?

How to read system eventlog using java program in windows?

How to read system eventlog using java program in windows?
is there any java class available to do this ? or any one having sample code for this?
Your friend Zoe

Hi,
There is no java class for reading event log in windows, so we can do one thing we can use windows system 32 VBS script to read the system log .
The output of this command can be read using java program....
we can use java exec for executing this system32 vbs script.
use the below program and pass the command "eventquery"
plz refer cscript,wscript
import java.io.*;
public class CmdExec {
public static void main(String argv[]) {
try {
String line;
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("Command");
BufferedReader input =
new BufferedReader
(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
input.close();
catch (Exception err) {
err.printStackTrace();
This sample program will list all the system log information....

***How to use Java to change user password in *mdw file?

Hi,
Is it possible to use java to change user's password in the MS Access workgroup file(*mdw)? I have been searching for this topic for a long time, but no discoveries yet. Anyone has any idea?
Sincerely,
nonameisname

There is probably a windows API call that does it.
Once you find it, you wrap it in C code and then use JNI to call it from Java.

I wanted to know if I can use/install Java JMF on Windows XP and how hard/easy is to use Java JMF to stream live video with a webcam and using applet on a web page; As I hoping to embark on a project.
Any suggestions will be gratefull.

You can install the JMF on windows xp since i am doing so. Also you can use web cam to capture and stream out as usual.

Help using Java to retrieve XMLType returned from PL/SQL stored object

Hi,
Please bear with me if this is a trivial question. I'm brand new to Java, JDBC, and XML DB. I've been spinning my wheels on this for a few hours now.
I have a table:

create or replace function get_doc(goid in number) return xmltype is
doc_content xmltype;
begin
select doc into doc_content from my_test_table where id = goid;
return doc_content;
end;
/Up to here, everything works fine. I wrote a small anonymous PL/SQL block, and proved that I can call the PL/SQL function successfully.
Now, I want to implement in Java. This is where I get confused.
Currently my code looks like this:

Based on the simple example above, my table and PL/SQL function definitions, can someone help me fill in the gaps of what I'm missing in terms of the Java code?

Hi, I´ve been working on an application that return an XMLTYPE from an schema package, the XML is generated in a query, not read it in a table, and use that variable in a JSP.
The DDL of the package function is this:

%>I´m getting te error:

Making a debbuging I identified that the exception is been raised in this line:

If anyone could help me please, I don´t know what else to do

Using Java to Retrieve Images from Oracle

OracleResultSet.getCustomDatum method is deprecated. I was using this method to retrieve an ORDImage from an Oracle 9i database. What are developers using instead of getCustomDatum to retrieve images from the database. Thanks for all help in this matter.

Hi use getBinaryStream(java.lang.String) or getBinaryStream(int) of java.sql.ResultSet for retrieving images from database
Hope it will be useful

The first time the application is installed using a link on the browser it's downloaded then the certificate dialog is shown, after that I check the checkbox to accept the certificate permanently. The application doesn't load, it only loads the second time although I see it in the task manager. If I don't accept the certificate permanently it does load. This happens on both Firefox 2 and IE 7. I enabled the console and logging but nothing shows up there.That's really a weird problem, I wonder if Java Web Start is a viable deployment option, it does have great capabilities such as autoupdate but still seems to have important bugs.
Does anyone have any clue about what is going on.
The problem doesn't occur on Ubuntu 7.10.

You were right my XML file was not correct. I still couldn't find a valid JNLP validator. Sun has to provide that.>No they don't (have to supply a validator for their own document type, though it makes sense to do so), but yes they do (provide a tool that validates XML against schemas). Java can validate XML against a DTD or XSD.
Check these two threads (and chase the links) for more details.
JNLP xsd schema
<http://groups.google.com.au/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_thread/thread/c6f65bf1df5f105d/30c6b7e2dc342dc4>
Validate XML against DTD? XSD OK. SSCCE.
<http://groups.google.com.au/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_thread/thread/5b997a1edb765b11/e831f3066eb4aa38>
Look especially for the posts by Piotr Kobzda.
I had a tool on my site based largely on Piotr's codes, that linked to a valid JNLP DTD and XSD, but unfortunately my site is offline at the moment. Andy assures me that the JNLP 6.0 DTD has been corrected for the developer ..download tutorials of web start, though the online (web site) version may still be invalid.

Creating Web Services using Java Implementation

Hi,
This is quite a general question on how to create a Web Service using Java Implementation that needs to conform to a client XML schema.
Here are my Version specs,
I am using Jdeveloper 10.1.3.4.0 and deploying onto OAS 10.1.3.
I will be creating a J2ee 1.4 (JAX-RPC) Web Service using Document/Wrapped style.
I have been provided an XML schema from the client which is quite complex.
Using a top-down approach, I can create my WSDL file and import the XML Schema for my type definitions.
The Web service aim is to accept some parameters and return some data from the Oracle Database. The
XML response from the web service must conform to the element, attribute definitions in the provided XML schema.
From a Java implementation approach, what is the best (simplest or quickest) way to retrieve data from the Oracle
tables and map each fields/column to the required XML output (defined in the XML schema).
I'm not too concerned with using Java to retrieve data from the Database, more with how I can map the data returned
to the required output. Can this mapping task be controlled within the Java program?
Thanks in advance.

How to trace changes in directories and files in windows using java.

Hi,
Want to know how to trace changes in directories and files in windows using java.
I need to create a java procedure that keeps track of any changes done in any directory and its files on a windows System and save this data.

chk out the bellow list,get the xml and make the procedure.....
     Notes
1     Some of the similar softwares include HoneyBow, honeytrap, honeyC, captureHPC, honeymole, captureBAT, nepenthes.
2     Some of the other hacking softwares include keyloggers. Keyloggers are used for monitoring the keystrokes typed by the user so that we can get the info or passwords one is typing. Some of the keyloggers include remote monitoring capability, it means that we can send the remote file across the network to someone else and then we can monitor the key strokes of that remote pc. Some of the famous keyloggers include win-spy, real-spy, family keylogger and stealth spy.
3     Apart from theses tools mentioned above there are some more tools to include that are deepfreeze, Elcomsoft password cracking tools, Online DFS, StegAlyzer, Log analysis tools such as sawmill, etc.

Windows Ad Authentication using java

Hi,
My Requirement: We are using Java, JSP, Struts in our application.
We have a user login jsp page. Whenever user try signing by using the logiin page we have to use Ad(Active Directory) userid and Ad password available from operating system.
Can any one please suggest me how I can achieve this?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Satish

1. Given a user name password and perhaps other information find out via the windows API how to 'log in'. This has nothing to do with java.
2. Write some C/C++ code that uses 1 to wrap that functionality in such a way that it describes what you want to do in your application. This has nothing to do with java.
3. Write a jni java class and C JNI code to wrap 2. This has something to do with java.

Authenticate against windows 2000 server securtiy using Java.JNI

How could you use Java or JNI to read the password and group membeship from the operating system for a given windows 2000 user, from a servlet/class?

Are you looking to build some sort of single sign-on module? You wouldn't be able to get the password, but you might be able to pass a token indicating the users credentials. You'd have to delve into the MSDN resources to get that.
Once you figure out how to what you want using COM, you can more easily integrate it into Java using the sourceforge projects Jacob or JAWIN.

Can I use my existing E-mail address to retrieve my password reset through security questions

Can I use my existing E-mail address to retrieve my password reset through security questions instead of through E-mail. When I try retrieving my new Apple password through reset through security questions? On the Apple id, it will not allow me to do so becasue I forgot my security answers to the question. I'm naming one or two of the wrong vechiles which is what the questions ask me for for security questions.
For icloud do you reccommend that I keep that same E-mail address or create a new one for my iCloud mail aside from my G-mail address name?
I asked support community for the very first time to reset my security questions and it wanted me to create a new user name for iCloud when I already have *****l for my original Apple id.
<Email Edited By Host>

TheresaEW,
I’d recommend contacting Apple directly to resolve your security question issue.
