Wallpaper GPO + Loop-back Merge mode+ security filtering. issue

I have deployed a loopback Merge Mode GPO to set wallpaper for all users who logon to specified workstations. And you have set security filtering just allow workstations in specified group can apply this GPO. Then you doubt whether user can apply user configuration
in the loopback GPO because they don’t in your security filtering allow list.
So I think why not add “Domain Users” group to security filtering. Then all domain users have both Read and AGP (Apply Group Policy) permission for user configuration in the loopback GPO.
Loopback GPO only takes effect on computer objects in your specified OU, and your workstation group security filtering control apply scope, then “Domain Users” security filtering grant permissions for all users.
========================issue is below================
Now GPO is applying to other workstations which are not part of group filtered in GPO.
its randomly but not for all workstations..
Workstations are XP operating systems..

"Domain Users" or I would prefer "Authenticated Users" should only have Read, Not Apply Policy.

  • Loop back adapter host file configuration issue?

    i did not exactly follow the following instructions :
    Add a line to the C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file with the following format, right after the localhost line:
    IP_address hostname.domainname hostname
    instead I have the following in my host file
    IP_address hostname
    that should be fine too right?

    i have actually reintalled oracle infra and then mid tier and it installed fine this time... I was able to log in to the portal at first with the the url

    but then I changed the portal database password with the command since I could not log into it
    alter user portal account unlock;
    alter user portal identified by password
    and I am getting the following error in the web page:

  • Security Filtering for GPO processing

    Hi,
    I have an OU which contains all the servers accounts. I have multiple GPOs that are linked to this OU but I have a GPO that contains only User configuration part witha script to map files. Requirement is that this policy should be applied when a groups of
    users logs on to a group of servers only.
    If I add the required User group & required computer accounts to the Security filtering of this GPO, will it work good? Is there any other way that will give required result but with lesser GPO processing time.
    Thanks
    Vipin Tyagi (MCSE 2003) Windows Admin

    In our environment, all GPOs are applied to Computer OUs, not a single GPO applied to User OU. Do we need to enable Loopback processing for all GPOs having user setting?
    No.
    Loopback Processing is rather special, in the way that, if enabled in any GPO, and that GPO is linked to an OU, all GPOs linked to that OU will operate in Loopback mode.
    When you enable Loopback Processing, this changes the way that GPO is processed on computers in the linked OU.
    e.g. if you enable Loopback Processing on a single GPO linked to an OU, and there are 3 other GPOs linked to that same OU, all 4 GPOs will operate in Loopback Processing mode for that OU.
    For this reason, there are suggestions on how to implement Loopback Processing, e.g. create a new GPO, name that GPO something like "Enable GPO Loopback in Merge mode" or "Enable GPO Loopback in Replace mode", then link this GPO to the relevant OUs where
    you need it.
    Don't enable Loopback Processing in a GPO that also performs other GPO settings.
    Using this method, you can quickly see (due to the display name) when Loopback Processing is applying to any OU, and, clearly see in all RSOP/GPresult data when Loopback is occurring.
    [troubleshooting GPO can be tricky, particularly when you don't know Loopback is occurring]

  • AGPM and security security filtering: gpos not showing up in uncontrolled tab

    Why Does a gpo not show up in uncontrolled tab? The only thing that is removed is "authenticated users" from security filtering of said gpo. Once I add authenticated users back, bang! its back visible in uncontrolled tab.
    Adding specific groups and removing authenticated users from security filtering is a standard practice to apply group policy. Can this not be used with AGPM?

  • HT5642 my ipod touch 5th gen is not recognized since I tried to update ios. It says it is in recovery mode but it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried holging power button for 3 sec. then both home and power for 10 sec then home button for 20

    My ipod touch 5th generation went into recovery mode when I tried to update ios. When I try to recover it just keeps looping back to recovery mode. I tried to hold the power button for 3 secs. then simultaneously hold the home button for 10 secs. then hold only power button for 20 secs. I tried this several times to no avail. This is my daughter's ipod. I am computer illiterate and I'm not sure what else to try.

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

  • How to apply Computer Configuration to users with Security Filtering?

    I have a gpo that contains both user and computer settings.  In order to test it, I want to link it to an OU that contains users and their computers, but I want to use Security Filtering to apply it only to certain users (I don't have their computer
    names).
    Is there a way to filter it to only certain users without losing the computer settings?

    > Is there a way to filter it to only certain users without losing the
    > computer settings?
     Computers look for computer settings in a GPO they have access to.
    Users look for user settings in a GPO they have access to.
    SO you might simply remove "Authenticated Users" (which includes both
    computers and users) from security filtering. Then add "Domain
    computers" which gives all computers access to computer settings, and
    add the users in question, which gives THESE users access to user settings.
    Don't enable loopback and play around with it unless you are sure you
    fully understand what it is doing!

  • Postfix, mail loop back to myself

    Hello. I have tried to set up postfix and dovecot. However, I cant seem to figure out what is causing this error messages when trying to send emails to other local users.
    My servers hostname is aurora.tholden.no
    MX host is aurora.tholden.no
    I have two domains. Tholden.no and srckurs.no
    srckurs.no have two email accounts. Both working fine, and I can send and recve mail between them, and the outside.

  • System 9 Security Filters and VB Essbase API

    I currently maintain a lock and send Excel template sporting a custom login dialog which I use to capture the user's employee id. Having that, I then use a generic admin username/password and the API to get the security filter stored under the user's "underscored" ID on the Analytic server. I parse out the organizational entities stored in the write filter and use that to build a treeview to which the user can only select entities to which he/she can access. Basically, it gives me the ability to maintain a standard template across many lines of business. I also use the same code in a security management applet where superadmins can build/modify/delete the security filters of those people who have access to entities which are descendents of the entity to which the superadmin has access.
    Anyway, I understand in System 9, there is no longer an "underscored" id. I think I read that on the Planning forum. Other than a minor code change, will this have any further impact? The write filter has been migrated over to the non-underscored filter yes? We're going to System 9 soon and I'm just trying to get my hands around the impact this is going to have on all of the API (7.1.6) code I have deployed. This is just the first question that came to me. I expect I'll be on here for a few more. Any help or advice is appreciated.

    I wouldn't copy Essbase.sec from one server to another. The server name is embedded in there and it's drive/folder dependent.
    What you can do is use MaxL's display filter all command and then pipe the output to a text file. In turn you can import those definitions back into Essbase with a little work.
    I wonder if OlapUnderground's Advanced Securtity Manager might be used to move filters across servers and versions:
    http://www.appliedolap.com/free-tools/advanced-security-manager
    I've personally never used it, but I'm sure someone on this board will chime in.

  • New Group Policy not working on 2008 RDS in 2012 Domain - Security Filtering problem?

    We have a Windows 2008 R2 RDS in a Windows 2012R2 Domain. We want to lockdown the 2008 RDS for Domain users that we have added to a new  security Group--named "Data Collection Users". These users are "Domain Users" and login to the
    2008 RDS using Windows XP SP3 machines to run a specific application -they do not use their local desktops for anything. WE added this group to the local RDU group on the RDS.  We do not have any other users that login to the RDS through terminal,
    including any Domain Admins.
    So far we have done these steps:
    On the DC, created new OU (called Terminal Servers) and moved the RDS into it.
    Opened Group Policy on the DC, and under GP Objects, created a new policy called "TS Users Lockdown".
    Linked the Policy to the OU.
    Under Security Filtering we removed the Authenticated Users, added the RDS computer account (called QS2), added the "Data Collection Users" and chose Allow for "Read" and "Apply Policy"
    Under Security Filtering, for Domain Admins, we chose Deny for "Apply Group Policy"
    We edited the Policy (under Computer Configuration>AT>SYS>GP) to Enable Loopback processing - Replace mode.
    We first tested the policy by trying to remove the "Run" from startup menu and "prohibit access to Control Panel".
    We ran the Group Policy force update from within GP Management - ran successfully.
    We did not reboot the RDS.
    Neither of the settings we tried in Step 7 worked.  Why Not?
    Here are images from the Security Filtering:

    Ok--Do I reboot the RDS or the DC?  or both?
    Does it look like my Security Filtering is correct?  I have seen posts where you should not remove the "Authenticated users"?

  • After the latest updat to Mavericks 10.9.3, my imac continues to loop back to the login screen...Suggestions??? THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • Problem assigning Essbase Security filters in Shared Services

    We recently upgraded Planning/Essbase to System 9 version 931 in Test. Everything went smoothly except for few users Security didn't migrate properly.
    In Shared Services, it shows that user has access to Planning & Native Essbase Applications. But in Essbase, only Planning Application access is shown.
    Also when I try to apply security filters for these users in Native Essbase Applications (in Shared Services), I don't see these particular users.
    There is no problem with Planning security, except when I refresh Security from Shared Services in Analytic Admin Console it wipes out Planning Application access in Essbase.
    For other users there are no issues. Only for few users this is the problem. I have tried to deprovision user & provision back, but no use.
    Please Help

    Essbase/Planning security is multi tiered. In Shared Services you setup your groups. You provision your groups with adequate security access. Depending on whether you have updated a cetain .css file(to fix bug) you may have to assign the read, write calc access to the group not just calc, but all three if your users need the access to actually, read, write & calc. of need user to just read & write etc... then you have to go to EAS refresh, run maxl script to assign environment access to user, go back to shared services go into projects assign any needed access to calc & filter groups and essbase is setup. For planning you also have to go to workspace and migrate identities within the security setup for any of your dimensions. this comes into play when adding or removing users as filters are created in planning workspace. I just learned this from one good tech that helped me setup & remove users as I had issues getting them in and out of the system..Now to move on to actually getting security reports that make sense for planning with the associated access. If anyone has the maxl code let me know.

  • Setup Assistant fails during file transfer and loops back to the beginnig

    I have a PPC G5 running 10.4.11 and just bought an Intel-based MacBook Pro. (I haven’t gotten it to fully start up yet, so I’m not sure about the OS.)
    I've tried to use the Setup Assistant to migrate my files and applications from my desktop to the laptop, but when I get to the Transfer Files option, the Users, Applications Folder, and Files and Folders options never finish calculating. Everytime I hit Transfer, a black-and-white wheel appears for less than a second then disappears, and Setup Assistant loops back to the beginning, where I get the multilingual welcome messages and bad music. Or, if I do nothing and wait for the Transfer Files step to calculate, Setup Assistant still just loops back to the beginning.
    I’ve tried the options for transferring from another Mac and from another volume. I’ve tried copying from the G5 in Target Disk Mode and tried copying from a cloned firewire hard drive. I’ve tried using the firewire 400 and 800 ports, different cables. I’ve run DiskWarrior on the G5 and the cloned disc to make sure no disc errors hung up the process. I tried booting into Safe Mode and following that protocol, though it seemed to address a different issue than the one I’m experiencing.
    Any ideas about what I can do? I’d rather do this in Setup Assistant than Migration Assistant, and I really don’t relish the idea of reinstalling all the software I have on the G5 onto the MacBook Pro. (Logic, for example, takes forever to install.)
    Let me know!

    Even if it's a demo, it's unlikely it's got 10.5 on it. Maybe 10.6. I've used the 10.6 SA from Leopard, which ran perfectly with no problems. As for MA, here's one way to go about it, if you can't finish with SA. (Thanks to MonkeyBoy at XYMer's)
    If you choose to use the migration assistant after installing SL to migrate settings over from Tiger, it'll copy over all your data intact from Tiger, as well as use the same account names & passwords.
    What I typically do is choose a dummy name during the installation, then use MA to import the "real" accounts from the old install. After I'm satisfied MA moved over the accounts properly (I've logged into them and used them for a few hours/days and generally feel satisfied with the lack of crashes and similarly "odd" events) then I delete the dummy account.

  • IPhone Playlists Now Loop Back to First Entry

    Hi,
    Don't know if this is a new "feature" or problem. So I thought I would check here first.
    When I select the first entry in a Playlist, that entry and all others play in sequence just fine. When the last entry plays, the Playlist loops back and starts to play the first entry again. Prior to the 2.0 software upgrade, when the last entry was finished playing, the playlist would just end.
    Any one else run into this?

    When a song is playing, tap the artwork (in portrait mode). You will get a progress bar. The "racetrack" symbol on the left is the repeat control. White is mo repeat. Blue is repeat all. Blue with a number 1 is repeat one.
