What is the option client certificate for user authentication used for?

Hi All,
I have to work on a FTPS - XI -SAP scenario.
I can see an option for client certificate for user authentication when security is enabled for the FTP adapter. what exactly is this option used for?
P.S: I went through sap help but couldnt quite understand.

Thanks a lot Mark.
So for a FTPS -> XI -> SAP scenario the following settings are required.
1. I have to create a certificate in Visual Admin for the XI server , send a csr to a CA and get it signed by them, and i have to add this to the ssl_service view.
2. I have to hand over the public key to the FTPS server & this key will be used for encryption of the file
the above 2 steps are mandatory.
If i choose to use the client certificate option , i have to get the client certificate from the FTPS server and add it into the TrustedCAs list. This certificate is just to imply that the client is what it claims to be.
Will this certificate be used for encryption?
To make it clear let me put it this way. The certificate created in the XI Server is used for encryption and also for ascertaining that the its what it claims to be.
The clients certificate option is used only to make sure that the client is what its claiming to be & this is not used for encryption?

  • What are the parameters "page-forward" and "page-backward"  used for?

    In the LIMITS section of the Netscape Calendar Server configuration
    documentation, there are two parameters called "page-forward" and
    "page-backward." The default setting for these parameters is FALSE. However,
    it is unclear what these parameters are used for.
    <P>
    With previous versions of Calendar Server, you could scroll one page forward
    or one page backward through the user search screens. However, with the
    implementation of LDAP in later versions, the options have been disabled in
    the client.
    <P>
    Although the page-forward and page-backward parameters are documented in the
    Administrator guides for Calendar Server versions 3.5 and 4.0, the guides
    state that the default value of FALSE for both parameters cannot be
    changed. In actuality, the parameters can be changed. However, the reason
    that users should not change these parameters is that versions 3.5 and 4.0
    do not support the page-forward and page-backward capabilities. So to avoid
    errors, please do not change these parameters from the default value of FALSE.

    if AdobeRGB is the more professional working space, then why not use that profile?
    on the web (and in unmanaged and broken work flows) sRGB is the safest profile (source space)
    just open your tagged Adobe RGB and tagged ProPhoto RGB document (use the embedded profile in each document)
    and go to View> Proof Setup: Monitor RGB (notice the loss in saturation? that's how most of the people on the Internet will be viewing your color, assuming you have a standard-gamut monitor like most people)
    always CONVERT to sRGB for the World Wide Web
    i didn't read your link
    anyone who recommends "disable color management in Photoshop" -- set Working RGB to "Monitor RGB" -- AND MOST UNBELIEVABLY -- "Don't color manage this document" (ignore embedded profiles) ------ is pretty mixed up (in my opinion)
    i will recommend reading JEFF SCHEWE and BRUCE FRASER for professional color management information

  • What are the best video effects or presets to use for HD video?

    I use Premiere Pro often, usually to direct music videos of different genres. I used CS6 for a while, until just now upgrading to Creative Cloud.
    Anyway, I just want people's suggestions on what effects, presets, or anything to use to make video look good!
    The video I use it 1080p HD, but I know there's ways to make it look even better than it already does, please give me any suggestions you have! thank you!

    No rules or limits to what one would use to make something "look good".
    Different FX and treatments  in different hands on different material...too many too list.
    Start with great images, great performance and direction...and Color Correction.
    Craft the film as to how you saw it before you shot it.
    Dont use others presets.

  • I just upgraded to Lion only to get the message that I can no longer use my Office (word/excel/powerpoint).  Why doesn't apple tell you these things. You'd think they wouldn't be interested in making money for their arch rival usoft. What R the options?n

    What are the options other then to re-partition the disk and run lion in one and leopard in another.  I suppose I can go over to Google and use their web tools which are compatible with Office. This *****.  So much for backward compatability.

    Apple makes the Operating System, not the 3rd party apps. In such a big step as upgrading the OS, the user would be the one responsible for making sure that any key apps that they use are compatible with the new OS before taking the step and upgrading.

    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.

    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
    First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

  • What is the minimum client requirement for ADF Application?

    Dear All,
    What is the minimum client hardware and software requirement for ADF Application?
    Operation System, Web Browser etc...
    Thank you,

    Presumably you mean for delivering ADF applications across the web to client PCs. As far as I know there's no hardware requirements. However you can find the browser certification matrix in the following link:

    Alternatively by "client" you mean a developer PC's hardware/software requirements to run the JDev IDE, the following link gives more information: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/install.1111/e13666/ojdig.htm#BDCDAGAH

  • Optional Client Certificate

    I have problems to access a web site which asks for an optional client certificate. That means if browser presents a client certificate user will be an authenticated user, if not user is handled as guest user.
    iOS Safari does nothing if no client certificate is installed and does not show web site, furthermore no error is shown.
    Expected behaviour: Safari should not present a client certificate and show website w/o client certificate if web site does not send an 4xx or TLS error.

    Hi Alfred and Kristian,
    You can't do what you would like right now.
    My understanding is that you would like some functionality like this:
    "WebApp A" demands 2 way SSL (mutual Auth) while
    "WebApp B" is content with 1 way auth ("regular" ssl where only the server
    authenticates itself to the client)
    Unfortunately 2 way ssl cannot be specified on a per-web application basis at
    this time. It is "all or nothing."
    Hopefully you can find another solution to the problem you are faced with.
    Cheers,
    Joe Jerry Jerista

    I've asked for more information about this before, but not been given any
    answer. However, optimistic as I am, I'll give it another try:
    I would like to be able to configure the SSL protocol on the SAME WLS (v.
    6.1) so that DIFFERENT web applications can be configured either to demand
    mutual authentication (two-way SSL) or "server authentication" (one-waySSL,
    the server is authenticating itself to the client).
    Is this possible??? Is there any way that I programatically from a servlet
    can demand that the client shows his/hers certificate?

  • HT4848 What is the "option key" reffered to in these instructions, I don't have a key marked options?

    What is the "option key" referred to in the instructions for using a recovery disc?

    The Option Key (along with Control and Command) will be on keyboards made by Apple and some 3rd party keyboards made specifically for Macs. Other USB keyboards will work but may have Windows-specific markings.
    The key layouts from left to right on Mac keyboards are (bottom row):
    Control - Option - Command - Space Bar - Command - Option - Control
    If you are using a Windows keyboard, the layout is the same but they keys could be marked differently. In other words, the leftmost key will be the Control key when booted into MacOS regardless of what is marked on it for when you are booted into Windows OS.
    Some compact keyboards might eliminate the left or right keys, but there will always be at least one set. For example it could be:
    Control - Option - Command - Space Bar -
    There are also symbols used to describe these keys in support documents.
    ^ is Control
    A stairstep looking symbol is Option
    A cloverleaf looking symbol is Command
    Some people will refer you to the "Apple Key". There is no such thing but it is common for the Command key to be referred to this way as on many Apple keyboards the Apple Character is on that key. It is usually not on 3rd party keyboards, which is why you should always refer to it as the Command key, since referring to it as the Apple key will confuse many users. Apple never refers to this as the "Apple Key".
    Alternative name for Option key is Alt, but again Apple never refers to it as Alt; it is there for Windows/UNIX compatibility.

  • What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?

    The ARD error "This task is not authorized on (computerName)" is forcing me to allow almost all the privileges in the Remote Management section of client computer's Sharing System Preferences. I've already had to add:
    "open and quit applications"
    "change settings"
    "delete and replace items"
    "restart and shutdown" (see this Apple document's suggestion for Unix commands)
    "copy items"
    It makes no sense to my why 'Generate reports' must also be added, but clicking it off makes the error return. I'm just triggering a Unix command that goes something like "echo 1" and runs as root on the one test computer (and potentially dozens, so it wouldn't be pretty changing settings in that many) If it helps, the ARD host is 10.6.7 with ARD 3.4 (installed via the App Store a couple weeks ago) and the clients are 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.
    I'm preparing documentation for ARD and some clients installing our software will not warm to the idea of widening up the permissions footprint. Potentially dozens of computers will need to be retweaked, even if they wouldn't have to leave their seat.
    We also will need to deploy a pkg installer, so some of those may need to remain checked, but ...
    What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?
    Thanks

    Have you tried sending it as User: Root
    To my knowledge with that setting you do not need any client permissions as a unix command used as Root overides any permission set. If this is something you need to do often I do know for a fact you can make the report task up use send as Root and tell it to save as template. After this you will be able use the templte to make things a bet quicker. I believe in oder to do this you must enable root user open Directory Utility in order to do this. Keep in mind root has full permissions and any command you enter with unix will be executed as such. This is a word around in the way that the normal client users do not need to have permissions enabled, also having root available at times is handy in stick situations.
