Where and how users and password are stored?

1) I'd like to know where and how users and passwords are stored in portal30_sso schema.
Does anybody know something about?
2) Why have I to start httpd with ssl enabled as root user? Isn't it insecure?

This only applies to Unix

Hi,
When the portnumber is under 1024, you have to start it as root, but you can run it as another user.
So, your SSL webserver instance can run under another user than root. Root only has to start it up.

What is Plug-in, SUpport Package, Add in and how R3 and BW are interdep

Hello Every One,
Can some one explain me in simple words about the terms, Plug-ins, SUpport Packs, Service Packs, Add-in's, SAP Notes and how R3 and BW are interdependant in the above mentioned terms? Can anyone give a simple example?
regards,
kishore

Hi,
Plug-ins:[/b]
Additional program which enhances the functionality of an existing program. Additional functions which may not be needed or are mutually exclusive are often implemented as plug-ins.
For example ICMAN contains various plug-ins for the various network protocols which it supports (HTTP, SMTP, FTP,...).
The interface between mySAP.com components (for example, SAP APO, SAP BBP, SAP BW, SAP CRM) and one or more SAP R/3 systems.
The SAP R/3 Plug-In unites the plug-ins APO-CIF, CRM-R3A, BW-BCT and B2B-PRO-PI. This simplifies maintenance significantly and guarantees compatibility between the individual mySAP.com components. With SAP R/3 Plug-In, you can use several mySAP.com components simultaneously in a single system. SAP R/3 Plug-In supplies the mySAP.com component transaction data and master data in real time.
Technically, there are two versions of each release of the SAP R/3 Plug-In, a PI version and a PI-A version.
The technical names of the software components are PI and PI_A
SUpport Packs
A set of corrections for serious software errors in the SAP system.
Support Packages are compiled periodically and made available in the SAP Service Marketplace.
Service Packs
A grouping of different services for a quotation.
A service package can be agreed between a service provider and a customer within a service contract or as part of a complex service plan, which can also be additionally agreed in a service contract.
EXAMPLE
A "Winter Car Check" service package containing the following services is agreed in a contract:
Cooling water check
Brake fluid check
Battery inspection
Light inspection
Add-in's
add-ins are enhancements to the standard version of the system. They can be inserted into the SAP System to accommodate user requirements too specific to be included in the standard delivery. Since specific industries often require special functions, SAP allows you to predefine these points in your software
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/e6/d54d3c596f0b26e10000000a11402f/content.htm
SAP Notes
Documentaion Prepared by SAP for publishing clarity in case of corrections or changes happening to the SAP Software.
R3 and BW are interdependant
Then BW takes the Data from R/3 : so there has to be Support Pluggins which are mapped to the BW server.So the SAP Supported R/3 Versions should be used.
Eg: SAP Stoped the Support for r/3 4.0 series

My lock screen just shows a black background and a User Name/Password dialog after opening the screen from sleep. How do I get it back to where it blurs my desktop image with the dialog and my account image displayed?

I'm not sure when it began, but now my Macbook Air only shows a black background and a User Name and Password dialog box when I wake it from sleep. It used to show my desktop background blurred with my user name and icon displayed with only a text field for entering my password. I'm currently using Yosemite (OS X 10.10.1) and all updates have been done. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I know this isn't a real problem, just an annoyance since I couldn't find how to change it back in the System Preferences.

I just have to point out that after looking at a related post (https://discussions.apple.com/message/22661092#22661092), it brought to memory that my issue most certainly began happening after I added some DoD certificates to the keychain. This obviously has something to do with it, but it still leaves me wondering what actually causes this to happen. :/

In which table current /and in which table last 5 passwords are stored

Hello
in which table current /and in which table last 5 passwords are stored

hi,
The password may not be changed to any of a useru2019s last x passwords, if the user changes the password himself or herself.
Until SAP NetWeaver 6.40 (inclusive), the password history was fixed to the value 5.
After SAP NetWeaver 6.40, the administrator can set the size of the password history (up to 100 passwords selected by the user).
The administrator can reset a useru2019s password to any initial password, therefore also to one of the last x passwords for this user. This is necessary, since the administrator should not know the passwords of the users. The user is prompted to change the initial password at the first interactive logon.
You can change this with the profile parameter login/password_history_size.

=================================
A couple of important points.
First, the listener is a server side only process. It's entire purpose in life is to receive requests for connections to databases and set up those connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It doesn't sustain the connection. One listener, with the default name of LISTENER, running from one oracle home, listening on a single port, will serve multiple database instances of multiple versions running from multiple homes. It is an unnecessary complexity to try to have multiple listeners or to name the listener as if it belongs to a particular database. That would be like the telephone company building a separate switchboard for each customer.
Additional notes on the listener: One listener is capable of listening on multiple ports. But please notice that it is the listener using these ports, not the database instance. You can't bind a specific listener port to a specific db instance. Similarly, one listener is capable of listnening on multiple IP addresses (in the case of a server with multiple NICs) But just like the port, you can't bind a specific ip address to a specific db instance.
Second, the tnsnames.ora file is a client side issue. It's purpose is for address resolution - the tns equivalent of the 'hosts' file further down the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host machine is because that machine can also run client processes.
Assume you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:
larry =
(DESCRIPTION =
 (ADDRESS_LIST =
 (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost)(PORT = 1521))
 (CONNECT_DATA =
 (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
)Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
$> sqlplus scott/tiger@larrytns will look in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called 'larry'. Next, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) using (PROTOCOL = TCP), asking for a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).
Where is (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request gets passed from tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name 'myhost' will get resolved to an IP address, either via a local 'hosts' file, via DNS, or possibly other less used mechanisms. You can also hard-code the ip address (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.
Next, the request arrives at port 1521 on myhost. Hopefully, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and that listener knows about SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.
What can go wrong?
First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames. In that case you get "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" No need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc. If you can't place a telephone call because you don't know the number (can't find your telephone directory (tnsnames.ora) or can't find the party you are looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look for problems at the telephone switchboard.
Maybe the entry for larry was found, but myhost couldn't be resolved to an IP address (say there was no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe there was an entry for myserver in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe the IP was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, but it is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, it is listening on the specified port, but doesn't know about SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor"
Third: If the client is on the same machine as the db instance, it is possible to connect without referencing tnsnames and without going through the listener.
Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
$> sqlplus scott/tigertns will attempt to establish an IPC connection to the db instance. How does it know the name of the instance? It uses the current value of the enviornment variable ORACLE_SID. So...
$> export ORACLE_SID=fred
$> sqlplus scott/tigerIt will attempt to connect to the instance known as "fred". If there is no such instance, it will, of course, fail. Also, if there is no value set for ORACLE_SID, the connect will fail.
check executing instances to get the SID
[oracle@vmlnx01 ~]$ ps -ef|grep pmon|grep -v grep
oracle 4236 1 0 10:30 ? 00:00:00 ora_pmon_vlnxora1set ORACLE_SID appropriately, and connect

ERROR:
ORA-12162: TNS:net service name is incorrectly specifiedOk, that is how we get from the client connection request to the listener. What about the listener's part of all this?
The listener is very simple. It's job is to listen for connection requests and make the connection (server process) between the client and the database instance. Once that connection is made, the listener is out of the picture. If you were to kill the listener, all existing connections would continue. The listener is configured with the listener.ora file, but if that file doesn't exist, the listener is quite capable of starting up with all default values. One common mistake with the listner configuration is to specify "HOST=localhost" or "HOST=127.0.01". This is a NONROUTABLE ip address. LOCALHOST and ip address 127.0.0.1 always mean "this machine on which I am sitting". So, all computers are known as "localhost" or "127.0.0.1". If you specify this address, the listener will only be capable of receiving requests from the machine on which it is running. If you specified that address in your tnsnames file - on a remote client machine - the request would be routed to the machine on which the requesting client resides. Probably not what you want.

AUDIT action (create, delete, privilege escalation, set and change password from users account and group) users and admins in Solaris 10

Hello.
in Solaris 10 i need auditing process create, delete, privilege escalation, set and change password and etc... from users account and group.
I set settings:
in file syslog.conf:
*.info;mail.none;cron.none;audit.notice            @IP-Remote-syslog-server-SIEM
in file   /etc/security/audit_control:
dir:/var/audit
flags:lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no,fc,fd
minfree:20
naflags:lo
plugin:name=audit_syslog.so;p_flags=lo,ad,ex,cc,am,no
in file   /etc/security/audit_user:
root:lo,ad:no
Now I see in the logs only the fact of a connection via SSH and run processes on behalf of users. Creation. delete users, change passwords for some reason do not is logged.
Many users. For each individual write permissions in the file /etc/security/audit_user not possible, it is likely to forget any new user (or there is a possibility in this file one line to describe the audits for all accounts?)
Where is the mistake?

You are most likely hitting Bug 15779000 user/role/groupadd/mod/del don't audit their use.
And the fix is only available in S11.2.

How do I get rid of myself and other users and just be working from the hard drive?

Hi all,
I know this sounds odd, but bear with me...
I've just bought a new Macbook pro 10.7.4, as my loved old one died. At the store they tranferred all my old info to the new one, but my problem is this: Now I am a user on my computer and there are options for shared users. That sounds confusing, but on my old computer it was just me using it. No sign in or log in, and when I opened my finder window everything was just there in the one bucket (my hard drive): library, apllications, programs, etc. Now I open my finder window and find duplicates of things in all places( i.e. things on my hard drive are also (or not, maddeningly, such as library) there, and then they are also in users or shared.) It is only ever me using my computer, so I don't need all this extra clutter everywhere, or have to go searching for things in different places. Old system was like opening a drawer and finding all your posessions neatly arranged in there, in the one place. Now i feel as though I walk into a room filled with cupboards and things are in some drawers that are also in others, and duplicated.
I apologise for my long rant, but I had to find a way to explain it!
Basically, I want to get rid of other user or shared options on my mac, and myself as a user, and just have the one system staright off the hard drive, no other log ins, but still obviously retain my permissions (password etc) for making changes or installing. Is this possible?

Well, you're going to have two Library folders - one for yourself and one for the System, but you can delete other users and you can enable automatic log-in for yourself using "Users and Groups" in System Preferences. No need to turn on Sharing or have any other users. You'll still need to make yourself an administrator, of course, but if you delete any other users, you delete their home folders, too.

My email password and my verizon account password are the same? Are you SERIOUS?

The other day I did something I never do, actually log into my verizon account. I hate the verizon interface, I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than use it, but every now and then I have to use it to handle a bill. So, of course the password that I remembered setting on it didn't work. So I jumped through the hoops to reset the password, conducted my business, and left the site, hopefully not to return for a year at least.
Lo and behold, the next time I tried to access my email (which I use Thunderbird for, and don't tell me it's not a supported client, it works fine, and no I'm not going to use Verizon's webmail interface), it won't accept my email password. Now, this password HAD always been distinct from my verizon account password. But...telling myself, "Oh no they didn't," I tried using the new password that I'd set for my online account. Surprise! It let me into my email!
Now, this morning, neither the new password nor my old email password are being accepted.
So, I have two questions, apart from the existential "why does Verizon feel the need to torture its customers like this":
1)Are they SERIOUSLY requiring you to have the SAME password for your email AND your My Verizon Account?
2)If, as I hope and pray, the answer to 1 is "hellz no", how can I change just my EMAIL password?
Anticipating a reply of, "No, it's just one password, because we've decided that's MORE secure, and your whole problem is that you're using Thunderbird, because ummmm somehow Thunderbird renders passwords into ancient Greek before it submits them and so it won't work, but of course some dull-normal client like Outlook WILL work, and don't ask me the details because I'm really not very technical, but apparently I'm technical enough to tell you that your client is no good"...

Yes, the passwords are the same now. Verizon made a big push a while back to give customers a single login. They merged everyone's accounts, not because it is more secure, but because they think customers will find it easier. No, there is no way to change just your email password.
And no, there is absolutely nothing wrong with using Thunderbird. Many of us have it configured for verizon.net addresses, and it works just fine.
Wish I had a better answer for you...

Can I revert back to the last firefox because the latest upgrade does not support RoboForm and all my login & passwords are now unavailble

I now have no access to hundreds of my user name and pass word data which was stored on Robo Form. In all previous versions of FireFox this add on was supported. Why did not FireFox warn us of the addons that would not be supported before upgrading. This is serious. How am I to log into all the programs that I use without the login data that was stored on my Fire Fox tool bar?

You can try this extension to override compatibility issues,

How to find out where all my itunes music files are stored on my computer?

I cannot locate the place where all my itunes files/playlists are located on my system. I need to copy this file into my flash drive in order to install into my new systems itunes folder. How do I locate this file?
thanks again Karen

Normally your music from iTunes will be located in "My Music/iTunes" The file name you should be looking for then is called iTunes Music Library(.xml) and iTunes Library(.itl) The reason why the codes in brakets are there are because they are pascific codes which these files will be under if you were to have all the known system file types active. Once you've found them and transfered to your flash drive/external hard drive, open up iTunes and tell it via import through file or just copy the file onto the new system.
The alternitive is just to do this, open up iTunes, click on file, then go to export library, then just tell it where you want the file to be located instead.

TS3992 where can i view pictures that are stored in icloud

where can i view photos stored in icloud and how do I delete some of them

There are two iCloud Photo areas: My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Stream. Here is the info on both.
iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?
You can delete photos from your photo stream the same way you delete other photos from your iOS device or Mac. Just select the photos you want to remove, then tap the trash icon or click Delete. On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, then select delete. When you delete a photo from My Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the My Photo Stream album or view on your other devices. Learn more about deleting photos.
iCloud: Shared Photo Streams FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5903
How do I delete photos from a shared stream?
If you are the owner of a shared stream, you can delete photos from the stream in the same way you delete any other photos from your iOS device, Mac, or Windows PC. The photos will be automatically deleted from the stream on all your devices and the devices of anyone subscribed to the stream. Any photos that were previously saved or downloaded from the shared stream to another location, such as the Camera Roll, will not be deleted from that location. Learn more about deleting shared photos.

If User & Master Password are the same you're locked out of bios

I have a x60s, still under warranty. I upgraded to a 500Gb hdd and I wanted to clear my hdd password on my old drive to reuse it. The bios won't let me since it sees me as a user not a s a supervisor. The passwords are the same. With other brands I never had this problem. I have now an Error 176 and cannot enter my supervisor password since it sees me as user.
Is there a workaround how to tell the bios that I am not user but master?
I live on a small island in the south caribbean so walking into a lenovo service center means buying a ticket to the US.

The master password doesn't prevent you from entering bios, the supervisor password does.
Disconnecting the bios battery will provoke the SV password to be required. You need to either remember that password, or find it out from whoever set it, before you can progress further. Another option is to contact support.
The SV password is a security measure; this subject is not allowed to be discussed here as stated in the forum rules
No posts shall include instructions or directions intended to subvert security measures, including passwords, locking mechanisms, fingerprint scans, etc, nor shall any posts provide descriptions to the location of, nor direct links to content related to these topics
I'm sorry, but I have to lock this thread.
Thanks for understanding
