XML forms and querying Active Directory?

Hi All
I am new to xml forms development and I am looking to have a connection to AD, so that when an form it being created you are able to select the active directory groups it relates to.
Unfortunately I have NO IDEA how this is done? Any ideas?

Michael,
Oracle Forms does support Single Sign-On (SSO). Take a look at Oracle Containers for J2EE Security Guide: OC4J Java Single Sing-On. Also take a look at the Oracle Forms 10g Sample Code and scroll to the SSO demo under the Forms Services Demo section. There are also, numerous other documents available via Google. ;-)

SCCM report to show last logged on user and the Active Directory department attribute of that user.

I need to create an SCCM report to show last logged on user on all machines and the Active Directory department attribute of that last logged on user.

You problem is here.

join v_R_User USR on USR.ResourceID
= CS.ResourceID
USR.ResourceID != CS.ResourceID, you need to map the username to the user logon to the PC. By using the user’s department information you will
end up with unreliable results.
Anyways you need to make these changes to your query.

XML Forms and Posting Directly to iView

Hey Everyone,
This is my first time posting a question on SDN, so please forgive me if I leave anything out.
I have a question regarding XML Forms and iViews. We are using EP 6.40 SP12.
I would like to have an XML Form filled out and have it's contents sent directly to an iView which is located on the opening screen of our Portal. The scenario is that every Tuesday the form will be filled out, saved and will appear on the user's Portal. An appropriate folder structure has been created in KM to hold all the forms, etc...
Any help would be much appreciated,
Cheers
Rav

Hi Ravinder,
After generating the forms,you have to create iViews for the Forms,Authoring iview and Render List iView.
These iViews can be assigned to users,or assigned to some page using Delta link.
The updated news will be available as a List on the Browser iView,which can be clicked to drill details.
The properties are set in the iView properties of Layout Set ,for example for authoring iView
Layout Set = NewsExplorer
For render List iView
Layout Set = NewsBrowser
Path to Initially Displayed Folder /documents/myNews
The values will change depending upon the form name.
Please go through this document for a detailed example
<a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/html/submitted_docs/Best_Practices/EP/documentation/How-to_Guides/KM/How%20to%20create%20XML%20forms.pdf">https://media.sdn.sap.com/html/submitted_docs/Best_Practices/EP/documentation/How-to_Guides/KM/How%20to%20create%20XML%20forms.pdf</a>

XML Forms and URL links in RenderListItem Form

Hello everyone,
I'm new at XML Forms and trying to do my first forms. I have this scenario:
- user fills several entry fields in "Edit" Form, 2 of them include URL Links.
- Every new entry in "RenderListItem" Form lists fields "Title" and URL1 URL2.
In RenderListItem Form, i would like to control the behaviour of these links. Link URL1 should open in a new window, but URL2 should stay in the same browser window.
How can i achieve this ?
Thank you in advance for any help,
Nuno

Hi Nuno,
you can achieve this by changing the XSL file.

User base Synchronization between SAP and MS Active Directory Server

Dear all!
I'm using Web AS 6.20 ABAP and MS Active Directory Server based on Win 2003 Server.
i successfully implemented the synchronization of user data between SAP and the ADS.
My question: Is there a way to customize the users on Active Directory Server in regard to their SAP authorization (roles auth. objects etc.)?
Currently I don't have a clue how to do this.
Regards,
Christoph

Have you searched on SDN for "Active Directory"? That turns up a number of results. I think your expectation might be backwards though, it's not how ADS exposes SAP specific data but how SAP uses ADS to store SAP specific data. My understanding (from quite some time ago so I am fuzzy on this) is that SAP can use ADS in much the same way it can use LDAP as an external user store.
The Security Newsletter from November 04 [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/sap security newsletter november 2004.pdf] mentions that a webinar is hosted on SDN about this exact topic, unfortunately I was unable to find a direct link.

XML Forms and Permissions

Hi guys,
I am using EP 6.0 SP14 and have a question about how to use XML Forms and permissions.
The scenario is... We have a KM Navigation iView which displays the RenderListItem form using the NewsExplorer layout set. Several people have access to this iView, so they can create new news. Also, for each news created, there are the options Edit and Delete.
The issue is that we do not want someone to Edit/Delete the news created by another person. We want only the "owner" to do this task. Two acceptable solutions would be:
- The RenderListItem only displays the items created by that particular user, allowing it to use the options Edit/Delete.
- All news created are displayed, but only the ones created by the current user will have the Edit/Delete options available
Is it possible to reach one of the above solutions using configuration only?
I found this thread:
Repository Service auto change resource permissions
But it uses Java programming, which we would like to avoid, if possible.
Thanks in advance
Fernando Urzedo

Hi Fernando,
> not familiarized with the Portal API yet.
> Furthermore, we are running low on time
Take it as your chance to get more familiar with it
Especially the KM framework has a lot of interfaces where you can extend the functionality with a lot of magic, which simply is not possible by just configuring something.
> in that third thread,
> how should I import it into portal?
"Third thread"? I think you mean the thread you have referred to?! (So: Implementing a Repository Service).
To get s solid basis for this, search on google for
<i>Detlev "Repository Service" site:forums.sdn.sap.com</i>
You can start implementing this by the KM (RF Component) wizard, which creates the basic implementation for you.
Hope it helps

Query Active Directory + Problem with thumbnailPhoto

Hi<o:p></o:p>
I have a problem and I don’t know if it is my SQL Query, so here goes
<o:p></o:p>
I have a view on my SQL server that Queries our Active Directory. I can see that there is data in the table.<o:p></o:p>
But when I try to use the Image in some C# code I get an error on 60% of the images with the exception header missing or corrupted.
My view is built with this Query:
select
* from
openquery
ADSI,'SELECT sAMAccountName, mail, title, displayName, telephoneNumber, mobile, sn, givenName, department, thumbnailPhoto
FROM ''LDAP:[REMOVED]''
WHERE objectCategory = ''Person''
Do you have any idea where the problem is? The photos shows up fine in Outlook, SharePoint, lync etc. I’m pretty sure that the C# code works correctly. Hope you can help.

The problem is that I can't find anything to tell me what the reason for

next.

It did work after all. Apparently there were some issues with AD replication
that we have set up...
However I immediately ran into the next problem:

My guess is that for some reason WL server does not recognize the fact that
that weblogictest is an administrator... I wonder if we should write our own
Authorization provider or a Role mapper...
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eugene

Hi,
You should not see this error is the user is defined in both wls andactivedir
and belongs to Administrators group.
Can you change the value of the control flag accordingly to check whetherthe
issue is from active directory or wls default provider ?
You can make the ControlFlag for ActiveDir as optional and check whetherthe
error goes away.
You would have start the server to do any changes in the console.
You could start the server by deleting the UserConfig folder under thedomain
but you would lose all the Security config settings.

Adobe Form that Creates Active Directory User Account

Hello all! Hopefully someone can help me with this. I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 to create a user account request form. I have the form created and now am working on a submit button that will email the form to the approving officials. Once its emailed to the approving officials I would like to have a button available in which the approval person can select resulting in the creation of an Active Directory user account. I need the fields in the form to populate cooresponding fields inside of Active Directory. Current AD structure is on Server 2003. Are there any ideas for how to accomplish this?

I don't know. However, you might get a better or faster answer in the LiveCycle forum that deals with Designer.

Can anyone Please guide me how to achieve this
thanks

Hi Patricio,
thanks for the reply..
Yes I think I need repository service..
I am using the xmlform template to generate the many contents. say I have generated
three content from a xmlform template
One content has to move to folderA
second content has to move to folderB
third content has to move to folderC
for this move action ... I am planning to implement repository service where I will capture the Approved Event( Right now I do not know which event is triggered.. I am searching for that.. if you know please let me know )
then after getting the which resource( rather in my case the xml file ). I have to move/copy this xml file to a designated folder..
this is actually my requirement
Sorry for not making clear about my requirement in my earlier query..
I would like to know ...
for this requirement is there built-in facility something like just configuring EP or
Am I going in the right direction ?
I am bit confused about the stepos involved in the approval process..
which comes first Publish or Approval

Oracle forms authentication with active directory without OID

Hi Gurus,
I need to implement active directory authentication in oracle forms.
My scenario is this:
1. The user is created in active directory
2. The user is imported in our aplication, and then I assign the roles in Oracle, and create the user in my aplicattion.
When the user logs, the system have to validate the password with MS-AD. If the password is right, then, the system start a session in Oracle.
My questions are:
1. How can I validate the password in AD ? Is it in clear text, unix crypt, AES ?
2. In case the user has changed the password in AD, how can obtain he logs in oracle with the new password ?
We use oracle enterprise edition, but we don't have oracle applications, so i can't use identity management.
Thanks in advance for your help

You will need Oracle SSO and OID to implement Active Directory authentication for Oracle Forms. It comes with Oracle Application Server. You will need to read up on how to use AD instead of OID as the user store for Oracle Single Sign-on (SSO). Forms will use SSO to login not really knowing which user store is used so there is no config needed on the Forms side (except enabling SSO).
