Where does user.name come from when using System.getProperty(user.name)

Hello,
Based on the user's requirements, I implemented authentication based on the results of the System.getProperty(user.name) feature. The audit group has some concerns on where the user.name value is coming from.
Does anyone have any idea where this property is coming from, and if it is coming from a file, whether it is stored as text.

Environment variable that is read internally by the JRE. If you go to dos (in windows) and type "set" and hit return, you'll see Username=whatever your login name is. If course, someone with the right credentials can change this.
Unix has a similar feature.

  • Where does the date come from when using Tip type = dateFormat

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me when using personilizations where the date that is shown comes from when using tip type = dateFormat? Today it shows (example: 24-Sep-2012) but yesterday it was the 23rd so seems to increment by one day. Is there a way to change the date shown here, to sysdate for example?
    Thanks

  • Where does skype signal come from

    Okay, I have skype finally. But after reading skype info I still didn't get an idea of how it works. Basically where does the signal come from. Is it like a cellphone or do you have to be near something. Oddly enough, there's no real explanation on these forums. Or at least the ones I've read. It seems that its VOIP, whatever that is. Does it need wireless, or cells... can I call to someone driving in my car or get a call from someone. What are the limitations? Confused.  

    Skype is a VoIP provider.  VoIP providers use Internet access in order to make phone calls.  If you are home you can use your phone's WiFi to obtain Internet access from your home's wireless router.  If you are not you can use either your phone's  2G/3G/4G data plan or the Internet from any WI-Fi access point you have access to in the area.

  • Where does the data come from which powers the ship date and delivery date

    Hi All,

    Adi.

    Hi,
    DELIVERY DATE  will be maintain in the SALES DOCUMENT TYPES in VOV8 in the tab REQUESTED DELIVERY DATE/PRICING DAE/PURCHASE ORDER DATE.
    The field is PROPOSE DELIVERY DATE .
    If you check the field then the document created date will be the Requested date and will be carried from ORDER TO DELIVERY.
    If you want the delivery date other thann the CURRENT date then you have to maintain the LEAD TIME in days in the same tab.
    SHIP DATE: is the date on which you do the PGI in the delivery .
    Please check them and revert back if u need further details

  • Where is the data come from when BW extract data from APO's MSP

  • My fiancé had her ex boyfriend recommended to her in Game Center (friends) where does recommended friends come from ; Facebook, contacts, or previous gaming with him?

    My fiancé had her ex boy friend in her recommendations from Game Center where does recommendations come from ; Facebook, contacts, or past gaming?

    That's a good thought that could explain some cases, but not mine: these people definitely don't know my email address, and I'm not in their Address Book. (Some of these are people I might meet on a hike, say, and nod to in passing on other hikes once a or twice a year, and that's the extent of the "relationship"--no contact info ever exchanged. We don't even know what cities each other are from.)
    we don't even know each others' email addresses, and even if we did, my Apple ID email is not one I use for actual emailing purposes. Nor do we know each others' phone numbers, nor gaming nicknames; often not even last names.
    I should correct my first post: I said I "do now know well"... that should be "do NOT know well".

  • Where Does These Handles Come From In Color v1?

    When i add handles in Color where are they coming from?
    i.e.
    if the clip goes to color as a say 3 second clip. I then grade it and add a 5 frame handle.
    Does the 5 frames come from the clip in motion or doe it come from the footage before an after the fcp edit points?
    if it comes from what i sent then how do i maintain my edit/style rhythm of cuts?

    in@ 00:03:20 and then out@ 00:04:20...
    If those numbers are the source time code *at 23.98 fps*, there would be 24 frames in that clip. If you did not add handles, a new clip (#_1.mov) would be rendered and placed in the COLOR project render directory of your choosing. On Send To FCP, a new clip with the old reference name (but pointing to the new media) will appear on the FCP sequence and it will be 24 frames starting at 3:20 and ending at 4:20.
    If you request the addition of 4-frame handles, the clip will be rendered with a duration of 2444=32 frames. The clip "#_1.mov" source time code will be 3:16 to 5:00 (remembering this is 24 fps). When it appears on the FCP timeline, a one-second clip will show up and it will be In/3:20, Out/4:20, but you will be able to slip it +/- 4 frames or add up to a 4-frame transition outside the
    selected pickup points.
    It has not much to do with the master time code of the edit sequence, the handles only get added to the "source" clip, but it does not affect its pickup or duration on the master sequence. On the Master sequence, you would still only see the 24 original frames... but if you wanted to trim the edit a couple of frames, you would have them.
    You must understand that COLOR generates new independent media, usually ONLY the selected footage on the timeline. Handles are a way of generating extra media in an attempt to build in some post-lock flexibility, and they do not affect the edited sequence selection in any other way.

  • Where does the processing take place when using a remote front panel?

    Hi,
    I am considering upgrading my LabView software from 6i to 6.1 for the new "two click" remote front panel feature. I have already seen a demo of this feature but have just a few questions before I get the upgrade:
    My setup consists of several pieces of equipment connected to Labview via GPIB, to aid in the evaluation of a new microchip.
    1. I wish to grant control of the setup to anyone with a web browser, Is the remote monitoring feature compatible with both Netscape and IE?
    2. The VI which controls the setup is currently located on the PC beside my setup. When I embed a VI in a remote front panel, where does the processing take place, is the local VI still controlling the setup? and
    the remote panel just sending and receiving data from the local VI.
    Thanks, Troy

    The computer which we refer to as the server, the one with the GPIB card
    in your case, will execute as it does now. In fact, its window will
    even be open. The remote client computer, the one with the web browser
    will be running the runtime engine and processing user events, value
    change and property/method events from the server. So in reality, both
    computers will be sharing the load a bit. This allows for very small
    packets to be sent between the computers. It is in fact quite similar
    to publishing the data between the computers using datasocket.
    One thing to keep in mind. Standard LV includes a license for one
    connection. If you want to allow for multiple web browsers to view at
    the same time, additional licenses are available. Also, only one user,
    remote or server may be in control of the panel at a time. That means
    that if you want to be able to operate the panel, changing kn
    obs or
    flipping switches, the others will become viewers only until you give up
    control. Hopefully this isn't a surprise, but I thought you might want
    to hear about it now.

  • Where does album art come from?

    I had assumed that the album artwork that iTunes 7 provided would only be from music available on iTunes. It made sense; no Beatles artwork, no AC/DC, no Led Zep. However, some albums that aren't available at the iTunes store automatically appear. Most notably, of all things, the album "Conquer the Video Craze"; an obscure record that teaches you how to play Pac-Man and Stargate. When I saw that THIS appeared, I started checking others. There are a lot of albums that aren't available on iTunes, yet the artwork is downloaded. Where does it come from?

    I also could download artwork of albums which are not available in the Dutch iTunes Store (the only one available for my purchases).
    Searching in other Stores I found the albums, so I guess the artwork has to be stored on a central server or the artwork request is redirected to others Stores' servers.
    No information is known to me where it actually comes from.

  • Where does SPUser.ID comes from

    Dear All
    I have a user set up in active directory. This user is rwolf (CN=rwolf,OU=acme,DC=bfs-cust-tst,DC=local). Assume I run the code below in  'protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)'.
    SPSite oSite = SPContext.Current.Site;
    SPWeb oWebsite = oSite.OpenWeb();
    SPUser user = oWebsite.CurrentUser;
    myLabel.Text = user.ID.ToString();
    When rwolf logs into Sharepoint and navigates to the page where above code behind runs he will see as value in 'myLabel' '18'. So, ID of rwolf is 18. Now, I could not figure out where this ID comes from. I looked deeply into Active Directory but could not find
    anything. Any hints?

    Hi,
    Whenever you add the user to the permissions or some other place.  It create a list item in the hidden list called user information list.  The ID which you are referring belong that list item.

  • Where does VCS get passwords from when doing LDAP authentication

    I was wondering, if I were to configure VCS to do LDAP authentication while using an Active Directory as LDAP, which passwords would it be using?   Will it authenticate against domain password or will I need to fill in a separate password attribute (which would be cleartext)?

    Hello Eli -
    Are you referring to user accounts (such as admin accounts that login to the VCS), or for devices (such as endpoints)?
    If you're talking about authenticating user accounts, than it will use your AD username/password.
    Cisco-VCS-Authenticating-Accounts-Using-LDAP-Deployment-Guide-X8-2
    If you're talking about authenticating devices/endpoints, than it will use fields in your LDAP that are created by schemas that you download from the VCS and install to your LDAP directory.

  • ITunes 7: Where does album art come from?

    I'm curious what the source of the album art is that iTunes 7 downloads.
    Anybody know?

    Perhaps you're right that it comes from ITMS. I thought it might be multiple sources since some of it is pretty bad.
    For example: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=661377&s=143441
    That's the Radiators "Law Of The Fish" and it looks like the original graphic designer's mock up, complete with cropping marks in the margins!
    Shocking.
