Allow members of a group to be unlocked by a specific account on AD

- by JohnLBevan

Background I'm creating a service to allow support staff to enable their firecall accounts out of hours (i.e. if there's an issue in the night and we can't get hold of someone with admin rights, another member of the support team can enable their personal firecall account on AD, which has previously been setup with admin rights). This service also logs a reason for the change, alerts key people, and a bunch of other bits to ensure that this change of access is audited / so we can ensure these temporary admin rights are used in the proper way. To do this I need the service account which my service runs under to have permissions to enable users on active directory. Ideally I'd like to lock this down so that the service account can only enable/disable users in a particular AD security group. Question How do you grant access to an account to enable/disable users who are members of a particular security group in AD? Backup Question If it's not possible to do this by security group, is there a suitable alternative? i.e. could it be done by OU, or would it be best to write a script to loop through all members of the security group and update the permissions on the objects (firecall accounts) themselves? Thanks in advance. Additional Tags (I don't yet have access to create new tags here, so listing below to help with keyword searches until it can be tagged & this bit editted/removed) DSACLS, DSACLS.EXE, FIRECALL, ACCOUNT, SECURITY-GROUP

Passenger not booting Rails App

- by firecall

I'm at the end of ability, so time to ask for help. My hosting company are moving me to a new server. I've got my own VPS. It's a fresh CentOS 5 install with Plesk 9.5.2 Essentially Passenger just doesnt seem to be booting the Rails app. It's like it doesnt see it's a Rails app to be booted. I've got Rails 3.0 install with Ruby 1.9.2 built from source. I can run Bundle Install and that works. I've currently got Passenger 3 RC1 installed as per here, but have tried v2 as well. My conf/vhost.conf file looks like this: DocumentRoot /var/www/vhosts/foosite.com.au/httpdocs/public/ RackEnv development #Options Indexes I've got a /etc/httpd/conf.d/passenger.conf file which looks like this: LoadModule passenger_module /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/passenger-3.0.0.pre4/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so PassengerRoot /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/passenger-3.0.0.pre4 PassengerRuby /usr/local/bin/ruby PassengerLogLevel 2 and all I get is a 403 forbidden or the directory listing if I enable Indexes. I dont know what else to do! Yikes. There's nothing in the Apache error log that I can see. The new server admin isnt much help as I think he's a bit junior and says he doesnt know about Rails... sigh :/ I'm a programmer and server admin isnt my bag :(

Passenger Bundler::PathError

- by firecall

So I'm going around in circles with this - I'm using a fork of the Paperclip Rails gem to get it to work with Rails3. Works fine on my OSX box with Passenger. But on my server (CentOS 5) I get this this error: git://github.com/lmumar/paperclip.git (at rails3) is not checked out. Please runbundle install(Bundler::PathError)Blockquote I tried Bundle Pack, but that doesnt pack gems from github. I read a post about setting the parh to the BUNDLE_HOME in my application.rb file which I tried: ENV['BUNDLER_HOME']="~/.bundle/ruby/1.8/bundler/gems/" But that doesnt work. Any ideas anyone? I dont know what else to do and have no idea how to debug or trace the problem further :( Passenger version 2.2.11. thanks.

Zend Framework ErrorController not working on live site?

- by firecall

My site is set up pretty much as per the Zend Quickstart guide. The default ErrorController works locally using MAMP. But now I've deployed it to my live site I get a blank page and a "500 Internal Server Error" according to FireBug when I go to an action that doesnt exist. On my local server I get a 404 and a nicely formatted error page. Any ideas anyone? I dont really know where to begin looking. I'm confused :/ Thanks.

Query an XmlDocument without getting a 'Namespace prefix is not defined' problem

- by Dan Revell

I've got an Xml document that both defines and references some namespaces. I load it into an XmlDocument object and to the best of my knowledge I create a XmlNamespaceManager object with which to query Xpath against. Problem is I'm getting XPath exceptions that the namespace "my" is not defined. How do I get the namespace manager to see that the namespaces I am referencing are already defined. Or rather how do I get the namespace definitions from the document to the namespace manager. Furthermore tt strikes me as strange that you have to provide a namespace manager to the document which you create from the documents nametable in the first place. Even if you need to hardcode manual namespaces why can't you add them directly to the document. Why do you always have to pass this namespace manager with every single query? What can't XmlDocument just know? The Code: XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument(); xmlDoc.Load(programFiles + @"Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\HfscBookingWorkflow\template.xml"); XmlNamespaceManager ns = new XmlNamespaceManager(xmlDoc.NameTable); XmlNode referenceNode = xmlDoc.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:ReferenceNumber", ns); referenceNode.InnerXml = this.bookingData.ReferenceNumber; XmlNode titleNode = xmlDoc.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:Title", ns); titleNode.InnerXml = this.bookingData.FamilyName; ... The Xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <?mso-infoPathSolution name="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:infopath:Inspection:-myXSD-2010-01-15T18-21-55" solutionVersion="1.0.0.104" productVersion="12.0.0" PIVersion="1.0.0.0" ?> <?mso-application progid="InfoPath.Document" versionProgid="InfoPath.Document.2"?> - <my:myFields xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:my="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2010-01-15T18:21:55" xmlns:xd="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003"> <my:DateRequested xsi:nil="true" /> <my:DateVisited xsi:nil="true" /> <my:ReferenceNumber /> <my:FireCall>false</my:FireCall> ...

opening a fancybox from a drop down box and passing the selected value to it directly

- by andy

<select name="mySelectboxsituation_found" id="mySelectboxsituation_found"> <option value="100">Firecall</option> <option value="200">FireAlarm</option> <option value="300">FireAlarm2</option> <option value="400">FireAlarm4</option> </select> < a href="#" class="incidenttype" name="all" onClick="JavaScript:var dropdown=document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found');this.href='main_situation_found.php?incident_maincateid='+dropdown.options[dropdown.selectedIndex].value;return true;"/>CLICK HERE < / a> function cleanUp(){ var subsituation_found1 = $("#fancybox- frame").contents().find('input:radio[name=incident_subcate]:checked').val(); } $(".incidenttype").fancybox({ 'width' : 900, 'height' : 600, 'autoScale': false, 'transitionIn': 'none', 'transitionOut': 'none', 'type': 'iframe', 'onCleanup': cleanUp ); }); clicking on "CLICK HERE" opens the fancybox and transfers the value selected in the drop down box. What I would like to do is open the fancy box when i change the value in the dropdown box...without having to click on the click here link.....i know it is posisble using something like _this....but i am not sure and am looking for some direction... ideally some thing like this ... <select name="mySelectboxsituation_found" id="mySelectboxsituation_found" onChange="JavaScript:var dropdown=document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found');this.href='main_situation_found.php?incident_maincateid='+dropdown.options[dropdown.selectedIndex].value;return true;"> <option value="100">Firecall</option> <option value="200">FireAlarm</option> <option value="300">FireAlarm2</option> <option value="400">FireAlarm4</option> </select> does any have an idea how to do it.... I have also tried... function test_fan() { alert(document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').options[document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').selectedIndex].value); var dropval =document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').options[document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').selectedIndex].value; return dropval; } $(document).ready(function(){ $("#autostart").fancybox({ 'onStart':test_fan, 'width': 800, 'height': 700, 'type': 'iframe', href:'main_situation_found.php?incident_maincateid='+document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').options[document.getElementById('mySelectboxsituation_found').selectedIndex].value }); <a href="#" id="autostart" style="display:none"></a> <form><select id="mySelectboxsituation_found" onchange="$('#autostart').trigger('click');"> <option value="">select</option> <option value="100">option 1</option> <option value="200">trigger</option> <option value="300">option 3</option> <option value="400">option 4</option> </select> </form> the really funny that happens there is that .... on the alert id do get the value i selected so if i selected alert fancybox window 100 100 nothing shows up empty 200 200 100 300 300 200 400 400 300 the fancybox seems to me the the previously selected values and i am not sure why that is happening... thanks andy
