Webaccess for External Entity questions

Hello,
- We are not able to logon to our external entities with webaccess (only with delegate option in the client)
- We have a password policy set to an edir object "login.policy", so this is for everyone.
on the password policy we've configured "periodic password change"=90 "require password"=yes /etc.
- We are authenticate to groupwise /edirectory with LDAP, so external entities should be use Groupwise password.
I have 2 questions:
- I want to disable the password policy "periodic password change" for this external entities.
Is it true that password policies are affected for external entities and if yes how can i exclude that, since i cannot assign a password policy to groupwise objects (only to users)
- I'm not able to login to the external entities with webaccess "mailbox not available" while i set manual the groupwise password in the external entity object. But i see that direct after that the password policy set the periodic password change to "current date/time"
How can i solve this, what's the best practice for this.
Thanks.

Hi,
We are using the latest one 8.02 HP2
hmm you don't have problems...
For information:
When i create an external entity:
Within consoleOne: select the postoffice > new > external entity
then i put in each field the same name as example : "mailaddress"
Then i have to browse for the object to place. There i place it in my Edir-tree under users/department/*
When i'm open the properties of the external entity and go to restrictions:
there everything is selected, so also "Force periodic password change", exactly the same as for our other users. (so that's the policy i think)
But when i deselect the "force periodic", it's good. But then when i say "change password", it's getting his password policy back from the server and there it is selected again.
But in the meantime i still cannot login with it.
I have 1 external entity that was working at a moment, don't know what i did. Ten times the same procedure. But also the password policy is there.
Is the structure the problem, where do you have the external entity object in your edir placed?

Obviously since the external entities are ONLY in GW, there is no NMAS Universal Password Policy that can apply to them, so I'm confused as to why an external entitity in your case would even be prompted every X days to change a password.

Preloader for External file Template question

I used the CS5 Flash templates>sample files>preloader for external file, to create my preloader.
The problem is that when the preloader is done and my SWF is loaded, my SWF has already started playing.
It is an animation that builds for 200 frames then buttons appear. By the time the SWF appears it has already gotten to the button frame.
Depending on connection speed I have caught the animation building.
Is there some action script I should put in my preloader or the first frame of my SWF to pause play?
Here is the preloader action:
var contentLoader:Loader;
loadContent("stage002.swf");
function loadContent(url:String):void {
    contentLoader = new Loader();
    contentLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loading);
    contentLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, contentLoaded);
    contentLoader.load(new URLRequest(url));
function contentLoaded(evt:Event):void {
    //Optionally change to a clip holder and set progressbar visibility.
    addChild(contentLoader);
function loading(evt:ProgressEvent):void {
    var loaded:Number = evt.bytesLoaded / evt.bytesTotal;
    setBarProgress(loaded);
function setBarProgress(value:Number) {
    progressbar.bar.scaleX = value;
Thanks in advance!

put a stop() on the first frame of your external swf in an otherwise empty first frame. when preloading is complete apply a play() to your loader's content cast as a movieclip:
function contentLoaded(evt:Event):void {
    //Optionally change to a clip holder and set progressbar visibility.
    addChild(contentLoader);
MovieClip(contentLoader.content).play();

XMLType and External Entity Resolving

When I try to insert an XML Document like
my table "xmltest" have only one column from type XMLType.
insert into xmltest(xmlType('<?xml version="1.0" encodeing="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE test PUBLIC "/home/oracle/test.dtd"><test>&auml;</test>'));
i become an Error
ORA-31011: XML parsing failed
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
LPX-00226: entity "auml" is not declared
Error at line 2
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 0
ORA-06512: at line 1
my question is
is it possible to declare external Entity references in a DTD File, and how i can bind the xmldata to that DTD File
i dont want to put the Entity Declaration into the xmlDocument (as inline DTD)
kind regards
jan

Yes,
outside from XML DB i can parse the file,
it parse also with PL/SQL
but there, the DTD is under an apache URL (http://apachehost/dtd/test.dtd) and dont need Authentification.
in this conjunction the DTD is under "http://testhost:8080/public/test.dtd" and need Authentication and also i think that the XmlType parsing failed.
I have try´d out to Access the DTD with
select xdburitype('http://testhost:8080/public/test.dtd').getClob() from dual;
i get an error with Access Denied
with
select utl_http.request('http://testhost:8080/public/test.dtd').getClob() from dual;
i get the File
The test.dtd was placed with Windows OS over the WebDav function. The file can be accessed from outside the XML DB with Authentication
My Question are
- must this resource explicit registered in the XML DB
- can this happends on other things
- how i can set the Accessability from the resource
for additional
i have the Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 (Downloaded from website)

UPS Energy Saver on MacBook Pro for External Drives

A search here has shown this topic come up before -- such as at https://discussions.apple.com/message/1886738#1886738 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/8162836#8162836 -- but I can't find a resolution, so I'm bringing it up again.
I have multiple FW drives connected to my MacBook Pro. The MBP is connected to an APC Back-UPS RS 1200. OSX does not make the UPS Energy Saver autoshutdown preferences available on the MBP, the reasoning being that a laptop shouldn't need UPS autoshutdown because it has its own battery which is likely to run for far longer than the UPS would.
That's all well and good for the MBP itself, but it doesn't account for the multiple FW drives which are attached to it for backups and other purposes. In the event of a power outage, without UPS autoshutdown, the UPS will run down, and the drives will abruptly power off, exposing them to potential data loss and damage.
It's also not a solution to suggest that I manually power things down once there's a power outage, because the power can go out while I'm away for more than the few minutes of UPS battery back up time. The only real solution is to have UPS autoshutdown available on all portable machines. Unless and until Apple offers a (surely very simple) OS update to make that happen, I'm still interested in a solution.
APC's own software for autoshutdown stopped being updated long ago, so there is no version compatible with Snow Leopard.
The only potential solution I've found so far is http://www.apcupsd.org/ -- but its documentation is overwhelming and it appears that it may need other supporting software, a fair amount of Terminal usage, etc., all making it not very user-friendly for the very simple usage I'd want to make of it.
Does anyone know of any other solutions, software that can run on a MBP to add UPS autoshutdown functionality?
Re: Apcups, is anyone using it successfully on a MBP? If so, does anyone know if the version listed here -- http://mac.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Apcupsd.shtml -- is a simple application that I can easily install and configure like regular Mac apps? If yes, then I'll likely be very happy with no need for the following question. If no, can anyone provide simple instructions to set up Apcupsd to do what I want?

"You are not doing anything on the computer so no files should be writing to the drives."
Big assumption there. With today's notebooks so capable of acting as desktop substitutes, they are often left running unattended to complete demanding tasks overnight or while the user does other things.
To be able to suspend such activities and gracefully power down an external drive or drives in the event of a power outage, the Mac would have to have instructions from each third-party application or process that is running about how to interrupt its activity safely and without jeopardizing the integrity of whatever hard disk directories are in use. Then it would need to unmount the drive(s) and, if they were bus-powered drives, turn off the power to each of them at the port to which it was connected. I bet it would be possible for all app developers to write such instructions into their apps' code, but where's the incentive for them to do so? This isn't a feature that most users would gladly pay extra for, I suspect, and the cost of adding it to apps that don't have it now and testing it for reliability and proper function under all conceivable circumstances would not be trivial.
If the drive(s) were AC-powered, the computer wouldn't be able to power them down itself -- the UPS would have to do that, or simply leave them on and power them until its battery was depleted or the AC was restored. It wouldn't matter which happened as far as the drives and their contents were concerned, because once the computer stopped using them, powering them off would be safe at any time.

Configure a sharepoint 2013 site for external and internal access

I need to configure a local install of sharepoint 2013 so that users can access it internally and externally using windows/AD authentication. The internal and external addresses are different.
I have bound an external ip to the domain for external access.
I have created Alternate Access mapping, and bound the host header but I get a file not found message for external access.
Have I missed something here? why the error and how can it be fixed. Step by step process would be appreciated.

Hi Luis,
According to your description, my understanding is that the error occurred when accessing the site externally.
The most common cause for this is that the IIS host header is configured incorrectly. The 404 will appear because we are hitting a different IIS web site and not the one we are intended to.
Here is a similar issue for you to take a look:

Hi mshields1162,
Great question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
First, you may want to choose to have the sidebar displayed for familiarity:
iTunes 11: Frequently used features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
Afterwards, your device should be displayed if connected:
We'll want to click on it, and choose the Music tab at the top. Let's make sure "Sync Music" is checked:
Afterwards, you'll have the option to sync either the entire music library (for your first iPod), or "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" (for the secondary device). Upon selecting this option, four larger option boxes will appear allowing you to pick and choose what content will be synced. For audiobooks, you may need to do the above in the "Books" section. For a visual instruction on how to do this, see the following:

Limit PO Err Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services

Hi,
I am having a problem while replicating free text Limit PO's to R/3 in SRM 4.0 SP 13. The issue is while creating Free Text Limit SC with the "Confirmation and Invoice" option checked in, the PO's get created in SRM but fails while replicating to R/3 and in RZ20 errors as "Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services" although in vendor master i don't have check for the field "GR-Based Invoice Verification".
On the contrary while creating SC with the "Invoice Only" the PO is successfully replicated to R/3 with item category as B for limit orders.
Now i have noticed if i make changes in the vendor master data i.e. check the flag "GR-Based Invoice Verification" then the PO in my first scenario gets replicated successfully and also with respect to the second scenario but it gets replicated in both the scenarios as item category "D".
As far as SRM standard it should have ideally behave like the below:
Limit SC with GR AND Invoice -> item category D
Limit SC with invoice only -> item category B.
Now my question is why do my PO's fail in R/3 in the first scenario and also if i check the flag in vendor master for GR-Based Invoice verification then in the second scenario the item category is "D" instead of "B".
Thanks in Advance.

LightSwitch is still looking for an entity property that no longer exists in any project file. How and why?

I recently performed an across-the-board rename in my LightSwitch application and development database. (No worries, always backups.) I know that directly editing the .lsml files (Client.lsml, Common.lsml, Server.lsml) isn't supported - you must be careful.
That said I've been able to use find and replace within these files with great success for simple refactoring ... until now.
I renamed "WcsNum" on my Job entity to "JobNum".
I have a data grid whose entities include a relationship to "Job" and display a couple of Job's properties, all very typical. Now whenever I open the screen with the data grid and it's populated with one or more entities that have a reference to a
job, I receive this:
The property 'WcsNum' does not exist on type 'LightSwitchApplication.Implementation.Job'. Make sure to only use property names that are defined by the type.
The spooky thing is, the text WcsNum no longer exists anywhere in my entire project. I've used Agent Ransack to search my entire project directory including the main LightSwitch project, my WCF RIA Services project, and any related files.
I've even exported my database schema (and data) to scripts and searched those for it -- nothing.
I've tried "Clean Solution", as well as manually deleting every obj, bin, and GeneratedArtifacts directory in both projects. There are no remaining occurrences of this reference, I don't know where it's getting it from.
I also tried deleting the settings from %UserProfile%\Documents\Microsoft\LightSwitch\Settings, which I regularly clear anyway to discard manual column sizes.
As I'm typing this I'm searching the contents of every file on my entire computer for "WcsNum", in case there's some other local cache that needs cleared. Feasible with a solid state drive.
If I can't find it this way, it must be stored differently, or within a binary format that Agent Ransack doesn't recognize as ANSI/Unicode.

For the first question, in Solution Explorer, you'll find a folder under the LightSwitch project called "Data Sources". But here's the bit you might be missing. You have to switch to back to
Logical View, if for some reason you've switched to File View. You won't see the data sources if you're in
File View. And seeing as you've got Luminous Tools installed, if you have made the toolbar visible, then you have a button to do it all for you "Show Data Sources". Then you simply right-click the data source that is your RIA
Service, then select Update Data Source. I hope that makes it a bit clearer for you?
As for not seeing a Rebuild Project command, you might be looking in the actual LightSwitch menu. What I've done is only put commands in there that directly relate to LightSwitch. Any others will appear in one of two groups in the context menu underneath
the LightSwitch menu. Rebuild Solution, Rebuild Project, & Cancel Build, should all be together. If you still can't find it, let me know. Any images of what you're seeing on the screen would be very helpful for me to know what to advise you.

What are the requried fields to be mentioned for external application login

Hi all,
I want to integrate a authenticated external application with my portal. My problem is that in the source code of the page, which contains login and paasword box, the action url is given as ../servlet/searchdirectory?Path=http://mybeat.techmahindra.com/ispace/home!section>cafetaria. When I give this URL in URL field for external application, it gives error as it is not a valid URL format. In fact, this site is redirecting the information for authentication. How can I get that URL????????
Another problem is that, when I am giving the URL as http://mybeat.techmahindra.com/service/page/UserLoginForm?
Path=http://mybeat.techmahindra.com/ispace/home!section>cafetaria after clicking apply button, it automatically removes the > sign and take it as http://mybeat.techmahindra.com/service/page/UserLoginForm?Path=http://mybeat.techmahindra.com/ispace/home!sectioncafetaria Is there any limitations for URL patterns which can be mentioned here????????

Hi Prasad,
note 1080927 contains the most up-to-date a list of required SCs for BPM. Ensure that you have imported the corresponding SCAs because the Studio checks the availability of certain required DCs that all BPM DCs must reference.
You can check which DCs are missing in the Component Properties view of the 7.11 NWDS: select the SC where you want to develop in Component Browser, switch to the "DC Types" tab in Component Properties and open the node for the DC type in question. DCs marked in red are missing.

Out of office replies in Exchange 2013 not working for external recipients

Hi,
Few days ago a couple of company workers went to vacation. They set up OOF automatic replies in OWA 2013. However automatic replies are not working for external recipients (outside of company). Internal users (company users) receive OOF notification.
I'm using smart host in sender connector configuration (SMTP server of internet provider) to deliver emails. Any clues about this problem ? Please find below part of the transaction log. For testing purposes i set up administrator account
to be on vacation.

Hi Informus,
Please check if it is allowed in AllowedOOFType of the Remote Domain *
In Exchange 2013, the only way to see or change the current configuration for automatic replying and forwarding to the Internet is via the Exchange Management Shell (EMS) with PowerShell commands.
To get the currently configured Remote Domains, use:
Get-RemoteDomain
Name                           DomainName
AllowedOOFType
Default                        *
External
Get-RemoteDomain Default | fl AllowedOOFType, AutoReplyEnabled, AutoForwardEnabled
AllowedOOFType     : External
AutoReplyEnabled   : False
AutoForwardEnabled : False
To change the settings, use the Set-RemoteDomain command.
Enable automatic replies
Set-RemoteDomain -AutoReplyEnabled $true
Enable automatic forwards
Set-RemoteDomain –AutoForwardEnabled $true
Enable OOF for Outlook 2003 and previous (for Exchange 2007 and 2010 support)
Set-RemoteDomain –AllowedOOFType $ExternalLegacy
To change all these properties at once, you can use:
Set-RemoteDomain Default -AutoReplyEnabled $true –AutoForwardEnabled $true –AllowedOOFType $ExternalLegacy
Note:
Valid settings for the AllowedOOFType property are:
External
This is the default and only allows for the new style OOF messages as introduced in Outlook 2007.
ExternalLegacy
This settings allows for both the new style and old style OOF messages and needs to be set if you want to enable external OOF support for Outlook 2003 as well.
None
This setting doesn’t allow for the use of OOF messages at all (both internal and external).
InternalLegacy
This setting only allows for internal OOF messages to be sent for all Outlook versions.

Default GL account (cost element) for external service contracts

Hi everybody,
question about GL being defaulted from contract for external services
The requirement is to have GL (cost element) being defined per service sub item defaulting to work order. Account assignment is unknown, because the costs might be settled later to cost center or AFE or else.
You could default cost element either through material group (which doesn't enable cost element to contract) or with account assignment category 'K' or 'F' which do not suit, cause the former requires cost center, that is unknown yet, whereas the latter requires assignment to order which doesn't make sense at all. Theoretically, it could be done with acc assignment cat 'U' , but cost element is not enabled with that category..
I was assuming that cost center which you are required to enter along with cost element while creating service sub item referring to some sort of internal accounting. The system also requires service sub item acc assignment category being aligned with requisition (which is 'F') and would in fact create PR referrencing actual work order number. But still, doesn't it make sense having contract referencing another order.. Also, we don't use default values for PM ext operation data.
So, the question is how to accomplish the requirement with Unknown assignment category? what is the point of defining cost center in the contract in given circumstances? Is there any work around exists?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Try this: IMG -> Plant Maintenance and Customer Service -> Maintenance and Service Processing -> Maintenance and Service Orders -> Functions and Settings for Order Types -> Create Default Value Profiles for External Procurement.
After that assign it to order type: Default Values for Task List Data and Profile Assignments.

Monitor for external drive activity?

I want a monitor to see how maxed out my external fw400 lacie drive is when I am using final cut to see how much data is going through the system. Do they have such a thing?

AJA makes a free one you can download that will test a drives cabable bandwidth. There are some live ones out there if you look around. If you're editing video, FW400 is getting maxed out for sure, no question. FW800 barely keeps up for HD, no question. What is your exact goal in having a data read/write measurement?

Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question). I haven't had this issue before, I have always used the content library on the screen but haven't used this for about a month. How can I make the Content Library available?

Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help

Inspection lot for external service

Hi Gajesh/ Sujit/shyamal/ all
we are planning to use service master for external vendor's service, i have couple of questions
please share your experience, if anyone of you come across this kind of requirement
1. is it possible to create an inspection lot for external service?
2. we want to capture / validate the vendor's external service, weather it is accepted or not? sometime we need to enter quantitative value also
3. is there any setting or config for assign /create inspection lot for service master?
what I know is without material master we cannot create inspection lot but i don't know about service master.
thanks
Sami

Gajesh,
thanks for quick response.
2 business req. are as follows
1. vendror is performing periodic service, MM side external service order (service contract/PO)created, bsaed on thatPO vendors performing service.
service entry sheet they are capturing man hours and date of service.
business wants quality of service to be captured in QM inspectiion lot.
2. production order ---> routing -- operation ---> vendor & service PO number assigned external work --> now inspetion lot will be created for that material/production order.
how can we link service master, service entry sheet and inspection lot?
how to map for this req.?
again is't possible to create inspection lot for service master?(without material master)if your answer is yes, then where/how can we assign inspection type ? which inspection type?
thanks
Sami

Access to my Office 365 third-party app for external user : "a User account is not registered for the account"

In my third-party web application of Office 365, I want to have access to the contacts, events and emails of all the users from the organizations who installed my app. The thing is I don't want that all these users have to grant me access, I just want one
admin of the org to grant access for my app and then be able to retrieve the data I need for all the users.
To test for one organization, I logged in as the admin and proceed to the Oauth2 authentication to retrieve the access token and in the first request (the GET one to retrieve an authorization code) i add the parameter
prompt=admin_consent.
With this access token, I can access the data (emails, contact, event) of the admin
for instance for the contacts
uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(adminemail)/Contacts
but not the data of the other users of this org with this uri
uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(useremail)/Contacts
The only thing I can do is retrieve an access token for each user but it supposed that each user has to authorize the access to the app but it's very cumbersome. So, i don't see what enables the parameter prompt=admin_consent and how to use it. Does anybody
know what it does?
And my question is: how can I do to access the data of all the users of one organization when the access has been granted by one admin?
Thank you!

This was answered on StackOverflow by Dushyant Gill. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25316175/access-to-my-office-365-third-party-app-for-external-user-a-user-account-is-n/25316678#25316678
You are sending the OAuth request to a tenant specific endpoint of Azure AD. Note the {key_provided} part of your Url - that part represents the tenantid or a registered domain name of an Azure AD tenant. Azure AD throws this error is the user signing in
is not a user in that tenant.
Multi-tenant applications like yours have two options:
Perform home realm discovery yourself and send the SSO request to the correct tenant-specific endpoint of Azure AD: when a new Azure AD organization signs-up for your application, record its tenant ID, and registered domain names. On your login page, ask
the user for their email and try to discover what Org they belong to using the suffix the email.
Use the common endpoint of Azure AD. Instead of the {key_provided} part of the URL, use 'common'. In this case Azure AD will determine the user's tenant and sign-in the user. The token that your application will receive will still be from the user's tenant
(iss claim).
2 is more convenient for apps. However #1 has an advantage when the user's Organization has customized their sign-in page with the company logo etc - in the case of #1 the user will directly be taken to the customized and familiar sign-in page.
I recommend a combination of the two: try determining the user's organization and sending them to the tenant specific SSO endpoint. If you're not able to - send them to the common endpoint.
