What are default group permissions supposed to look like?

I'm struggling with permissions under Leopard (I understand many others are as well). My quick and dirty question is: what are the default user & group ID numbers for a fresh leopard client install?
I've only done archive & installs lately so no longer have a test bed to compare from. Currently on one machine user id and group id (GID) are BOTH 501. I think Leopard has moved the default user IDs to 1000 (on up) and the default group ID to 20 (staff).
When moving files between machines at one installation the group is coming across as "Unknown" from a Leopard server. Trying to Get Info on these files and unlocking the padlock in Get Info window will crash the Finder!! So I guess i'd like to change the group IDs so they're consistent on all machines. Didn't have this problem with Tiger.
Thanks for any help!

OK, so followed the instructions in <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307128> and things were fine until i updated to 10.5.2. Now if I choose Get Info on a file in any external drive there is no longer a padlock under Sharing & Permissions. It only says "You can read and write" and that's it. No list of owner (Me), groups, everyone. they're not even listed anymore and the padlock is GONE!
ls -l in Terminal gets me lists like
drwxr-xr-x 6 steve _steve 204 Dec 8 2004 Hüsker Dü
and ls -ln returns:
drwxr-xr-x 6 501 501 204 Dec 8 2004 Hüsker Dü
i don't think i like the 501 501 thing. i'd prefer 501 20 .
anything i should be aware of before changing the group across the board to 20? (i'd also like to change the user folder from 501 501 to 501 20). should i use the dscl command, i used to try to get out of this mess before, somehow?
Permissions under 10.5 has sadly become a real mess! reminds me of 10.0 days...

Is this what my printer utility is suppose to look like?

I this what my printer utility is suppose to look like? With the printer having a red ex over it? screen shot :
http://s558.photobucket.com/albums/ss21/jamient/?action=view&current=Picture1.pn g

I haven't used Lexmark printers/utilities but I would say the answer is no, it shouldn't have the red cross through the print icon. However I notice that next to the icon is a drop-down menu, which has a title of Print Name. Since there is no printer showing in this menu, I would guess that this could be the cause of the red x.

What is the disc utility supposed to look like with a fusion drive

I have bought a brand spanking new iMac 2013 with a fusion drive. I had a bit of a glitch with the set up of boot camp. I have taken it to the apple service centre and they reformated the drive. But I am no expert but it seem as though the computer is really slow, even slower than my 2009 iMac. can any one tell me what the fusion drive should look like in the disc utility? It appears as two seperate drives!? is this right? Can some one please help me?

Please explain what are form groups and form routines

Hello ABAP Experts,
Could you please explain what are form groups and form routines? I would certainly appreciate some examples.
Thank you in advance, Aleksandra

Hi,
I've found the Form Group in transaction J7LE. It is part of Industry Specific solution for hi tech companies, so I'm not sure if you'll be able to access it. In this tcode you define master data of your partner. The first step is to choose the Form Group - they simply group Form Routines. Depending on which one I choose, different entry fields get activated. However there are routines that will enable input to the same fields, so I suppose there must be some additional functionality behind it. Could you please specify what does it mean?
>>Form ROUTINES, are subroutines for modularizing your code<<
I'm afraid I have no ABAP experience at all...
Cheers, A.

Also to reiterate. I am not part of a NETWORK. I live at home with my wife. Why can I not just be ONE USER! Is it possible?
Hello, clbobman!
Please note that is topic has been dormant for two years. Since few people are likely to still be following it, it would be better to start a new topic of your own if you need help with this, preferably in the forum for the OS version you are using.
With that out of the way, please be aware that you are most certainly part a network. It is the Internet, the largest one on the planet! As was mentioned by several contributors back when this topic was active, users & groups exist largely to protect your privacy & security from the millions & millions of other users who share that vast network with you.
Unfortunately, an ever increasing number of those users are criminals who would like nothing better than for you to run an OS that provided little or nothing to prevent them from taking over control of your computer remotely, stealing the personal & private information you have stored on it & using it however they want, installing software to do their bidding instead of yours, & so on. Even if they aren't completely successful, the attack may leave your system unstable or sluggish, destroy some or all of your document files, or even corrupt the file system so badly that you would have to erase everything & start fresh with a new installation of the OS to recover.
With just one user who has unrestricted access to control everything, that isn't very hard to do. To prevent this (& to prevent users from accidentally doing things with the same result), like in every other modern OS, OS X includes a complex system of permissions to restrict & control access to various parts of the system. In OS X, this is implemented as an abstracted system of users & groups, each given permissions to perform only specific kinds of tasks.
So for example, when a human user like you or me asks the Mac to do something, that request may be handed off to one or more non-human users, each able to handle only part of that task, & relying (like us) on other non-human users to do what it can't.
This compartmentalization makes it very difficult to take over control of the Mac & force it to do things it should not do, whether by accident or intent. It also makes it difficult to understand exactly how it all works. Fortunately, as has already been said, as users we don't need to unless we are intent on changing it. And if we are going to do that, we better have a very good understanding of how it all works. (Otherwise, it is very likely we will just break things, cause data loss, or worse.)
If understanding all that is your goal, Apple's developer web site is full of info you can study, & there are quite a few books on the subject. But be warned, this is not simple stuff. It can take months or years to absorb it all.
That's why most of us leave it to the programmers & just use our Macs to do the stuff we want without worrying too much about how it does that.

What are the access permissions on Site Contents?

Hello
I don't want outsiders accessing Site Contents.
What are the access permissions? Can anyone see that page?
Mel

Go to Site Settings -> Users and Permissions -> Site Permissions -> In the ribbon select Permission levels. Here you can see different permission levels like Read, Contribute etc.
You can create a permission level by clicking on Add a permission level. Select the permissions you want to give the users. "Make sure to not give the permission "View Application Pages - View forms, views, and application pages. Enumerate
lists."
Now you can create a SharePoint group and associate this permission level to that group. Finally add those users to this group and they won't have access to Site Contents.

IPhone email - what is the icon (grayed location) that looks like a storage box do?

Phone email - what is the icon (grayed location) that looks like a storage box do? It is on the bottom of the screen when you open a message...it is where the trash can would be?
We put a message in there by mistake and have no idea where it went or how to retrieve it.
Thanks,
Annie

The Icon meas your display orientation is locked to vertical so it wont change when you turn the phone sideways.
First thing you should check with the battery life is multitasking, which also happens to be where the orientation lock can be turned off. check out http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4211 and go from there

What are the correct permissions for the Home folder?

Since buying my first mac (G4 iMac) I've since bought 2 other macs & transferred my home folder from the older computer each time. Since then I've messed around with the permissions of the Home folder a few times to try share files & folders between my Windows PCs. So the permissions of the Home folder on all computers could be messed up a little.
I want to set up permissions how they should be set up as default.
I created another user account with admin priveliges & it looks like the Home folder should be set up as follows:
Owner: 'my name'
Access: Read & Write
Group: admin or 'my name'
Access: Read only
Others: Read only
And the sub folders (Documents, Pictures etc.) should be set up as follows:
Owner: 'my name'
Access: Read & Write
Group: admin or 'my name'
Access: No access
Others: No accesss
Is this correct, & if so shall I just set permissions on my Home folder exactly the same as the new account I set up?
Or is there some way of resetting permissions for the Home folder?
(I know repairing permissions with Disk Utility doesn't do this).

Mac OS X does not have a built-in way of doing this, but you can make one yourself. Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder and enter the following:
do shell script "chmod 755 ~"
try
do shell script "chmod 700 ~/Desktop"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 700 ~/Documents"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 700 ~/Library"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 700 ~/Music"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 700 ~/Pictures"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 755 ~/Public"
end try
try
do shell script "chmod 755 ~/Sites"
end try
This script can be saved as an application, which makes it possible to fix the permissions on a home folder with two clicks. The try statements are included so that the script will run if a folder doesn't exist. If the ~ object is a symbolic link, the permissions on it may not be changed; you can use the code block
tell application "Finder"
set the_home to POSIX path of (home as alias)
end tell
do shell script ("chmod 755 " & the_home)
in this case. The rest of the script works as before.

OBIEE 11g, BI Apps EBS: What are default security variables and Init Block

Hi,
We are implementing BI Apps 7.9.6.3 [OBIEE 11.1.1.1.5 with EBS modules]. Out of the box RPD and mappings.
There are many VARIABLES and INIT BLOCKS in the RPD. Some of them are mainly for Siebel, Jd Edwards etc.
I need to know what are the default variables and Init Block configures in RPD. Also it will be highly appreciated if anyone can point out what segments we should configure if we need to implement security with simple database table authentication with SSO?
Thanks in advance.

You should review this doc for the options for EBS/OBIA security:

If helpful, pls mark as correct or helpful.

What are various data speeds supposed to be?

I am doing my research now on the iPhone while awaiting the end of my Sprint contract. I currently on the slow Sprint data network using a Treo 650. All my bookmarks are to text based mobile sites: BBC, NYT, etc.
I was playing with an iPhone here in Phoenix yesterday & the full graphic sites like BBC World News displayed pretty slow on the Edge network.
What are the various "published" speeds supposed to be for the slower Sprint, ATT Edge & ATT 3G Networks? In "theory" how much faster is 3G over Edge?
Thanks.

In theory EDGE has a maximum speed of 220 kbps, and 3G 1500 kbps as implemented by AT&T. In practice I get about 200 kbps and 1000 kbps respectively using the aircard on my laptop. So 3G would appear to be 5 times faster than EDGE. Some magazines have done real comparisons between the iPhone and a 3G PPC. The found much smaller differences, from sites that took about the same on both to a best case of the PPC being twice as fast as the iPhone. The reason is that a website requires many requests to the server, and each one requires the overhead of setting up and tearing down a connection. So this "latency" slows down the useful throughput. This would not be an issue for email or youtube, however.
On my laptop 3G is faster than EDGE for web browsing one page at a time, but not strikingly so. The difference is that I can launch a browser with multiple tabs loading simultaneously, and for that scenario (and for downloads) 3G is much faster.
