WebDAV only available to users with Homefolders and Admin rights?
Dear Community,
I am having trouble to setup WebDAV on the lion Server. I am able to login as an Administrator as well as an OD user who has admin rights as well as a home folder. If a user is missing one of those two things then s/he is not able to login to WebDAV. Does anyone know how to give access to OD users who don't have a homefolder or at least don't have admin rights?
Thanks already
Got it to go for about 300 student accounts and works for a no-home user if I define the sharepoints access for that user both in file sharing and in file permissions in Finder.
You should be able to set up a normal file share like a dropbox with the proper permissions, engage the webdav with the "share with iOS devices" and then be able to access it.
So for example, I created a folder on the server called Dropbox and gave it permissions for a certain group to access either in Finder or via CLI (you could use individual users also). Then go into Server App, create a file share of Dropbox and enable "share with iOS devices". Ensure that the user has access on the file share too.
If you enter https://yourserver.com/webdav/ via your device (or your computer via finder / go / connect to server) and authenticate with the non-admin user, you should be presented with the shares that they have access to. I can also go https://yourserver.com/webdav/Dropbox/ to mount the dropbox directly.
I have found that sometimes you need to restart web on Server app (or sometimes the whole server) on the server to show the new "share" in its current configuration. You should also see your shares listed at /etc/apache2/httpd_webdavsharing_sharepoints.conf or /etc/apache2/webdav_sharepoints.conf.
Hope this helps

I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?
You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update

Hello everyone,

Networked 1312 and Admin Rights
Hi,
Recently all of our users had their local admin rights removed and now no one can scan through the network unless they log off and log back in as local admin (which is a pain of course). I've tried a few different things like installing the software from a folder where they have full rights but the scanning will not go to completion without admin rights. You can't install with Run As and if you try to scan with Run as it will not let you have access to the file
Any workaround for this?
Thanks!I can't do a **** thing and have been hunting and trying everything I know to fix
Please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue.
Actually - from the day I recevied this newMac I had trouble simply FINDING WiFi - opening a WiFi interfae panel - entering any info to log on to a Wi-Fi home network already set-up and working previously - etc

Script Add bulk user with CSV, and set expiration date
After importing the AD module, the line:
Set-ADAccountExpiration -identity JohnDoe -timespan "365"
Works just fine, but how would you automate this with a script that would read a csv-file. The -identity cmd dosen't seem to like my $SAM setup. Perhaps it's a better way to get-aduser and pipe it to set-accountexpiration. Is there a swift way to add the
expire date to the user I just created with my CSV-file?
Thanks!Thank You!
You're very welcome.
-AccountExpirationDate parameter of New-ADUser only seem to work with -DateTime, a specific date, while -TimeSpan is optimal for this solution.
You can use Get-Date's AddDays method to generate a datetime object for use in this situation, see the code I'm posting below for an example.
Now on to the next challange to warn me when they reach "32" days before expiration. Was thinking of running a Task Scheduled bath file that could collect number of days left and report it if below the mentioned days.
Here's one method you can use for finding these users:
$cutoffDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(32)
Get-ADUser -Filter * -SearchBase 'OU=Users - TEST,DC=domain,DC=com' -Properties AccountExpirationDate |
Where { $_.AccountExpirationDate -and $_.AccountExpirationDate -lt $cutoffDate }
Just so you're aware, we generally try to keep threads to a single question.

File sharing only works for users with Admin rights
Hi.
I am trying to set up file sharing in Lion Server but am having problems getting all my users access to shared folders. So far, only users that are "allowed to administer this server" are seeing shared files, even though they seem to have "read/write" permissions.
Can anybody tell me what I might be missing?
Is being allowed to "administer" the server different than truly being an Admin?
I want to allow users to read and write files, but not change any server settings.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!What permissions are you setting on the share? My guess is you are only using user, group, and other (POSIX). You need to add an ACL to the list and then set read/write or full control.

Adding phones and users with bat and LDAP sync
What are the various ways of importing users with phones when the Communications Manager 9.0 is sync'd with LDAP. Also, what method is the easiest and fastest?
For example, I could do the following steps:
Sync CUCM with LDAP to import new users, add phones using bat files, manually update users to associate devices etc
I believe I should also be able to do the above method and use a bat file to update the users to associate devices etc. This method still involves 2 steps and the creation of 2 seperate bat files.
In CUCM version 9 it is possible to have local and LDAP users, so is it possible to add the phones and users using the phones/users tab of the bat file and have them beocme LDAP users?
Thank you,

Is there a fingerprint reader available to work with iPad and iPhone?
I need to use fingerprint confirmation with iPhone and iPad. Are such devices available, either bluetooth or connected to available slots?
JanYes I am using the backing track with the chart that has the melody on it. I am able to use the backing track/iReal Pro while viewing it's corresponding chart in iGigBook so I have no need to associate a music format with that chart. My desire in switching between the two programs is to be able to view the iReal Pro after playing through the melody line once or twice using the iGigBook program (once back in the iReal Pro program I am able to keep track of the progress of the backing track) and then going back to the iGigBook chart to end the piece/last time through the head etc.

Virtual global user with vsftpd and pam?
I followed the ArchWiki for setting up vsftpd with xinetd and pam. It works great for our clients to be able to upload/download from their own directory and have some privacy. Now I need to setup a couple of 'global' ftp user accounts that can be used by the production staff to browse the 'private' folders. Anyone know how this can be done? From what I've read so far, if guest_enable=YES, then local users cannot login even if local_enable=YES is set.
Here's my vsftpd.conf:
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
dirmessage_enable=YES

Help with Applescript and Admin Privelages
I just started using Applestript a few months ago and I can't figure out how to give my script Admin rights. Basically, it turns on and off my internet sharing and file sharing through dialog boxes. I copied and pasted the whole code below if you want to test it, but this is the part that is giving me trouble. There are 4 lines similar to this, the actions that turn on or off the services.
do shell script "/bin/launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.InternetSharing.plist" with administrator privileges
I've tried adding "with password _____" and "password_____" but neither worked. Can anyone help me make this script authenticate itself so I don't need to keep typine in my password? I could easily make a keystroke in system events to type it in but it doesn't always ask for it so I don't know how I'd make the script know when it needs to enter the password. any help is much appreciated!
Some things to clarify: The first shell script is there to invoke the "authentication" dialog so I can sign in once I launch the app and get right into the settings. However, I'd like to make it so the script doesn't even need admin permission to run, or make it somehow have my password built in to it. Security is not an issue, its my personal computer that nobody else has access to so I really don't care if my password is written in the code. Also, if you have any tips on how to streamline the Quit/Hide/Resume dialog I'd appreciate that too. Resume is there because there's a chance I won't have to sign in again if the app does not quit, however more often than not I have to sign in anyways. Thanks again in advance, sorry this post is so long but like I said, I'm pretty new to all this so I don't know exactly what you need to be able to help me.
The Whole Script:
-- Variables and Authentication
set done to "n"
set quitapp to "no"
display dialog "Please enter your password to allow Sharing Manager to make changes to your settings." with icon caution
do shell script "/bin/launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist" with administrator privileges
delay 0.2
-- Repeats
repeat while quitapp is "no"
repeat while done is "n"
-- Choose Setting
display dialog "Choose Setting to Edit" buttons {"Internet", "File Sharing", "Exit"} default button 3
set the button_pressed to the button returned of the result
if the button_pressed is "Internet" then
-- Commands for Internet Settings
display dialog "Internet Sharing" buttons {"On", "Off", "Cancel"} default button 3
set the button_pressed to the button returned of the result
if the button_pressed is "On" then
do shell script "/bin/launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.InternetSharing.plist" with administrator privileges
else if the button_pressed is "Off" then
do shell script "/bin/launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.InternetSharing.plist" with administrator privileges
end if
else if the button_pressed is "File Sharing" then
-- Commands for Sharing Settings
display dialog "File Sharing" buttons {"On", "Off", "Cancel"} default button 3
set the button_pressed to the button returned of the result
if the button_pressed is "On" then
do shell script "/bin/launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist" with administrator privileges
else if the button_pressed is "Off" then
do shell script "/bin/launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist" with administrator privileges
end if
else
set done to ""
end if
end repeat
-- Confirm Quit/Hide
display dialog "Really quit? You will have to reenter admin info next time." buttons {"Quit", "Hide", "Resume"} default button 1
if the button returned of the result is "Quit" then
set quitapp to ""
else if the button returned of the result is "Hide" then
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "h" using command down
end tell
else
set done to "n"
set quitapp to "no"
end if
end repeatwith respect to general improvements, a couple of points:
If I'm reading this script correctly, it looks like you're putting up an applescript alert and leaving it hanging until it's dismissed. This is an atypical approach (applescripts aren't really meant to hang around indefinitely waiting for a respons). If I were doing this I would either go whole-hog and create an applescript application in XCode with a proper interface, or remove the hanging dialog and create a set of toggle scripts that I could use from the script menu. if you really want to keep the hanging dialog, though, you can streamline it by absorbing the secondary dialogs into the main dialog. that's like so:
set netSharingStatus to checkService("com.apple.InternetSharing")
set fileSharingStatus to checkService("com.apple.AppleFileServer")
display alert "Current Settings" message "Click to change settings" buttons {"Internet " & netSharingStatus, "File Sharing " & fileSharingStatus, "Exit"} default button 3
-- choose next action based on the button clicked and the status vairable
on checkService(service)
do shell script "launchctl list"
if the result contains service then
return "On"
else
return "Off"
end if
end checkService
using handlers like the above can also streamline the rest of your script. the following construction means you only have to write the do shell script line once, rather than the four times you currently do, and makes for much cleaner reading.
if the button_pressed starts with "Internet" then
toggleService("com.apple.InternetSharing", netSharingStatus)
else if the button_pressed starts with "File Sharing" then
toggleService("com.apple.AppleFileServer", fileSharingStatus)
else
--exit routine
end if
on toggleService(service, currentState)
if currentState in "On" then
set action to "unload"
else
set action to "load"
end if
set command to "/bin/launchctl " & action & " -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/" & service & ".plist"
do shell script command user name "adminusername" password "password" with administrator privileges
end toggleService -
XPRESS code to find all users with a specific Admin Role
I've been playing around for a while with a way to get a list of all users that have been assigned a particular Admin Role. I have a role for which I want a specific subset of users to be approvers on it, and I want to greate a Rule that will check for people with a particular Admin Role and then return that list as people to be approvers on the role.
I haven't been able to find an easy way to write this code. Anyone run across this before or have another suggestion???
Thanks.Below is the code to find user based on condition.
<set name='adminList'>

Do users have to have admin rights in order to be able to sync?
It seems that the Blackberry users at my company have to have admin rights in order for them to be able to sync their devices to their computers. The company is tightening the controls and soon, only the IT department will have admin rights. So how will users sync their devices? The company is not willing to spend the money on the BES. Any guidance to this problem would be GREATLY appreciated!
hello,
correct. Either a user groups, or directly the rights granted locally on each computer for its owner.
I have no idea so the IT guy will have to trial & error by dichotomy.
patience will be needed.
=> some registry folder in write/modify, some firewall ports opened, some rights on some NTFS folders.
I wish good luck to the ITman. Maybe theyll find salute with technical documentation on how the Desktop Manager works.
it's the price to pay for not paying the price of a BES
