What sets the Nexus Q apart from similar media streaming devices, such as Apple TV, is that it allows you to collaborate with friends via your Android device to create playlists of music and video clips.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 15px/24px arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">The Nexus Q isn’t just an Apple TV clone device from Google. Think of the Nexus Q as a hybrid between Apple’s streaming puck and the Sonos music streaming stereo component. The Q features a built-in 25W amp that can power a pair of bookshelf speakers. In addition, users can sync Qs across multiple rooms.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 15px/24px arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">From a video promo (see below) of the Nexus Q Google says: "streams your favorite entertainment from Google Play and YouTube to the biggest speakers and screen in the house."</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 15px/24px arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><iframe frameborder="0" height="341" id="youtube" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/cLpm__A66P0?rel=0" style="font-weight: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" width="606"></iframe></div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 15px/24px arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Using the Q, Android users on the same WiFi network can “queue” (get it?) up their Google Play Music tracks. Every user sees the same playlist, and can edit it as they see fit, hence “the first social streaming media player.”</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 15px/24px arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">The Nexus Q runs Ice Cream Sandwich, is powered by a dual-core OMAP4460, with 16GB of storage. Google will be shipping the Nexus Q in the next 2-3 weeks for a list price of $299. It’s thrice the price of an Apple TV, but it packs lots more features.</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" />Courtesy:<a href="http://www.pcworld.com/article/258414/google_unveils_nexus_q_streaming_media_player.html">http://www.pcworld.com/article/258414/google_unveils_nexus_q_streaming_media_player.html</a></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-84119408575746716492012-06-27T10:49:00.001-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.094-07:00Google's Nexus 7 tablet<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="post_body" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: #444444; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 14px/19px georgia; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 10px 0px 0px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px;">Well, it looks like the<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/25/google-nexus-tablet-reportedly-shows-its-pre-rendered-face/" style="color: #00bdf6; text-decoration: none;">rumors</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>are true.

Turns out, the tablet has a 1280x800 IPS display coated in "scratch-resistant Corning glass," which we presume is of the Gorilla variety, plus a front-facing, 1.2-megapixel camera. Within its 198.5 x 120 x 10.45mm case lies either 8 ($199) or 16GB ($249) of storage, plus 1GB of RAM, and NVIDIA's quad-core Tegra 3 SoC. Connectivity comes courtesy of GPS, Bluetooth, 802.11b/g/n WiFi and Micro USB, plus it's got NFC for all your Android Beaming needs. Rounding things out is a 4325mAh battery and the usual spate of sensors: accelerometer, magnetometer, and a gyroscope. Want more? A video all about Jelly Bean and the new hardware running it awaits after the break, or you can hop on over to the source to order one for yourself.</div><a href="" name="continued" style="color: #00bdf6; text-decoration: none;"></a><div style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="358" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/YMQdfGFK5XQ" width="600"></iframe></div><div style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">Courtesy:<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/27/googles-nexus-7-tablet-outed-before-i-o/">http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/27/googles-nexus-7-tablet-outed-before-i-o/</a></div><div class="clear" style="clear: both; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative;"></div></div><div class="post_footer" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; color: black; display: inline; float: left; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0px; orphans: 2; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; width: 650px; word-spacing: 0px;"><div class="post_footer_left" style="display: inline; float: left; height: 36px; margin: 8px 0px 4px; padding: 0px; position: relative;"></div></div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-35378545557298784122012-06-27T10:49:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.070-07:00This Is Google’s New Nexus 7 Android Tablet for $199<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; border: 0px currentColor; color: #474747; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 13px/21px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 18px 0px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">In the final minutes leading up to the Google’s annual developer conference in San Francisco, Google confirmed the release of its tablet Nexus 7, which will run on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.</div><div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; border: 0px currentColor; color: #474747; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 13px/21px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 18px 0px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">The Nexus 7 comes in both 8GB and 16GB models, featuring a 7-inch 1280×800 HD display (216 ppi), back-lit IPS display, scratch-resistant Croning glass, a quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, a 12-core CPU and a 4325 mAh battery that promises about 8 hours of power use.

Here’s a report from our friends at Bloomberg News from a video posted on YouTube. Come back for more details and insights on the Google I/O announcement from Chronicle tech reporter Casey Newton:</div><blockquote style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: white; border-left-color: rgb(221, 221, 221); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 3px; clear: both; color: black; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: italic 13px/normal "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0px 0px 1em 1em; orphans: 2; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0.5em; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">By Brian Womack<br />Google Inc. unveiled a handheld computer called the Nexus 7 that features a 7-inch screen and is designed to help the company vie with Apple Inc. and Microsoft Corp. in the surging market for tablets.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">The Nexus 7 will feature Google’s Android operating system, according to a video posted on the YouTube website. The company is expected to unveil other information about the product at its San Francisco event.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Google is on the hunt for ways to fuel sales of tablets, a market that may almost double this year to 118.9 million units, according to Gartner Inc. Though Android has grabbed more than half of the smartphone market, tablets with the software have won less than half the iPad’s share, and will face new pressure from Microsoft, which unveiled its own tablet last week.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">“The tablet market is a major challenge for Google at this point,” said Clayton Moran, a Delray Beach, Florida-based analyst at Benchmark Co. “They need to have a competitive product with the iPad.”</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">The Google tablet will also showcase Android’s latest iteration, which is named Jelly Bean, according to the video.</div><div style="color: black; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">This would also be the first tablet to get Google’s Nexus designation. Google has worked with manufacturers such as Samsung in the past for Nexus smart phones to highlight the best features of Android software. The processor in the new tablet will be provided by Nvidia Corp., one of the people familiar with the matter said.</div></blockquote><div class="entry-sharing none" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;

Browsers will generally just use two methods to access and interact with web sites; GET for queries that can be safely repeated and POST for operations that may have side effects. This means, we need to disable unused http methods. some of them are:(PUT|DELETE|TRACE|TRACK|COPY|MOVE|LOCK|UNLOCK|PROPFIND|PROPPATCH|SEARCH|MKCOL). Check with the application teams, if they need any of these methods for the application to work, before disabling them.<br /><br />Testing before limiting http methods:<br /><br />telnet josephamrithraj.mp 80 <br />Trying xx.xx.xx.xx… <br />Connected to josephamrithraj.mp. <br />Escape character is ‘^]’. <br />OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1 <br />Host: josephamrithraj.mp<br /><br />HTTP/1.1 200 OK <br />Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2010 00:11:57 GMT <br />Server: Apache Web Server <br />Content-Length: 0 <br />Allow: GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS, PATCH, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, MOVE, LOCK, UNLOCK, TRACE<br /><br />Connection closed by foreign host.<br /><br />your IBM http servers configuration file [httpd.conf] has 2 sections named main and virtualhost sections. you need to add the following code at both the places. I am explaining this task using mod_rewrite module. So, first make sure that… mod_rewrite is enabled. then, add the following lines to your http.conf files main and virtualhost sections.<br /><br />RewriteEngine On <br />RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(PUT|DELETE|TRACE|TRACK|COPY|MOVE|LOCK|UNLOCK|PROPFIND|PROPPATCH|SEARCH|MKCOL)<br />RewriteRule .* – [F]<br /><br />Restart the web server after adding the above lines.<br /><br /><br />Now, when someone tried to use one of these http methods, they will get forbidden response since we specified [F] in the rewrite rule.<br /><br />Testing after adding and restarting web server<br /><br />telnet josephamrithraj.mp 80<br />Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...<br />Connected to josephamrithraj.mp.<br />Escape character is '^]'.<br />OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1<br />Host: josephamrithraj.mp<br /><br />HTTP/1.1 200 OK<br />Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2010 00:15:44 GMT<br />Server: Apache Web Server<br />Content-Length: 0<br />Allow: GET, POST<br />Connection closed by foreign host.<br />Testing TRACE methods<br /><br />telnet josephamrithraj.mp 80<br />Trying xx.xx.xx.xx...<br />Connected josephamrithraj.mp<br />Escape character is '^]'.<br />TRACE / HTTP/1.0<br />Host: josephamrithraj.mp<br />testing... <- ENTER twice HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2010 00:18:31 GMT Server: Apache Web Server Content-Length: 320 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 <!DOCTYPE HTML(link) PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML(link) 2.0//EN"><br /><html><head><br /><title>403 Forbidden</title><br /></head><body><br /><h1>Forbidden</h1><p>You don't have permission to access / on this server.</p></body></html><br />Connection closed by foreign host. <br />Disable verbose HTTP headers:<br /><br /> <br />you might have seen this … when the web server [apache or ibm http server] throws errors page, sometimes it might show the information related to its version, build, modules etc. This is a security issue since you are giving away the details about your web server. for example, take a look at this:<br /> <br />Server: Apache/2.0.53 (Ubuntu) PHP/4.3.10-10ubuntu4 Server at xx.xx.xx.xx Port 80<br />The line in the server header expose important version and variant information about the Linux operating system and Apache software used on the machine, indirectly expose the possible security holes that are existed to the hackers, or at least make malicious attackers easier to identify your system for available attack points.<br />To ensure that the Apache HTTP web server does not broadcast this message to the whole world publicly and fix possible security issue, modify these two directives ServerTokes and ServerSignature in httpd.conf configuration file.<br /> <br />ServerTokens<br /><br />This directive configures what you return as the Server HTTP response Header. The built-in default is ‘Full’ which sends information about the OS-type and compiled in modules. The recommended value is ‘Prod’ which sends the least information.<br /><br />Options: Full | OS | Minor | Minimal | Major | Prod<br /><br />“ServerTokens Prod”<br /><br />This configures Apache to return only Apache as product in the server response header on very page request, suppressing OS, major and minor version info.<br /><br />ServerSignature<br /><br />This directive lets you add a line containing the server version and virtual host name to server-generated pages. It is recommended to set it to OFF and Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.<br /><br />Options: On | Off | EMail<br /><br />“ServerSignature Off”<br /><br />This instructs Apache not to display a trailing footer line under server-generated documents, which displays server version number, ServerName of the serving virtual host, email setting etc..<br /><br /><br />Courtesy:http://josephamrithraj.wordpress.com/2010/09/16/advanced-ssl-configuration-on-ibm-http-server-restrict-unused-http-methods-and-verbose-http-headers/Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-13761682474150334042011-11-01T21:59:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.061-07:00Advanced SSL configuration on IBM Http Server – Client Authentication and CiphersThe Advanced SSL Configuration settings are<br /><br />Client Authentication<br />Setting Ciphers<br />SSL for multiple IP virtual Hosts<br />Client Authentication:<br /><br />If you enable client authentication, the server validates clients by checking for trusted certificate authority, Known as CA root certificates in the local key database. To enable client authentication, you need to use SSLClientAuth directive. The options to use with this stanza are:<br /><br />None – The server requests no client certificate from the client.<br />Optional – The server requests, but does not require, a client certificate. If presented, the client certificate must prove valid.<br />Required – The server requires a valid certificate from all clients and returns a 403 status code if no certificate is present.<br />Required_reset – The server requires a valid certificate from all clients, and if no certificate is available, the server sends an SSL alert to the client. This enables the client to understand that the SSL failure is client-certificate related, and will cause browsers to re-prompt for client certificate information on subsequent access. make sure you have GSKit version 7.0.4.19 or later when you choose this option.<br />For example, If i want all the clients to be authenticated, then i need to add the following stanza<br />SSLClientAuth required<br /><br />Ciphers<br /><br />We set the cipher specification to use during secure transactions. The specified cipher specifications validate against the level of the Global Security Kit (GSK) toolkit that is installed on your system. Invalid cipher specifications cause an error to log in the error log. If the client issuing the request does not support the ciphers specified, the request fails and the connection closes to the client. IBM HTTP Server has a built-in list of cipher specifications to use for communicating with clients over Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The actual cipher specification that is used for a particular client connection is selected from those which are supported by both IBM HTTP Server and the client.<br /><br />Some cipher specifications provide a weaker level of security than others, and might need to be avoided for security reasons. Some of the stronger cipher specifications are more computationally intensive than weaker cipher specifications and might be avoided if required for performance reasons. When an SSL connection is established, the client (web browser) and the web server negotiate the cipher to use for the connection. The web server has an ordered list of ciphers, and the first cipher in that list which is supported by the client will be selected.<br /><br />IBM HTTP Server supports the following SSL ciphers: SSLv3 and TLS and SSLv2<br /><br />IBM recommends the following setting, keeping in mind both strong security and performance<br /><br /> ## SSLv3 128 bit Ciphers<br /> SSLCipherSpec SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5<br /> SSLCipherSpec SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA<br /><br /> ## FIPS approved SSLV3 and TLSv1 128 bit AES Cipher<br /> SSLCipherSpec TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA<br /><br /> ## FIPS approved SSLV3 and TLSv1 256 bit AES Cipher<br /> SSLCipherSpec TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA<br /><br /> ## Triple DES 168 bit Ciphers<br /> ## These can still be used, but only if the client does<br /> ## not support any of the ciphers listed above.<br /> SSLCipherSpec SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA<br /><br /> ## The following block enables SSLv2.

A virtual user is a user who is authenticated on the SAML Identity Provider and this user is transfered ( with all his attributes and roles ) in a SAML Token to the Service Provider, this user does not need to exists on the WebLogic server of the Service Provider.<br />Before you can use this feature you need to setup SAML 2.0 SSO on your WebLogic Domain. You can follow <a href="http://biemond.blogspot.com/2009/09/sso-with-weblogic-1031-and-saml2.html">this blogpost</a> for all the instructions. You can also do this with Web Services but then you need to follow<a href="http://biemond.blogspot.com/2011/08/do-saml-with-owsm.html"> this guide</a>.<br /><br />First we need to enable <b>Generate Attributes</b> on the Identity Provider Side.<br />Go to the myrealm security realm -> Providers -> Credentials Mapping -> your SAML 2.0 Credential Mapping Provider -> Provider Specific.<br />Also do this on the imported Service Provider Partner located at the Management tab of your SAML 2.0 Credential Mapping Provider.

OpenLDAP provides a freely available, replicated directory that can be used as a redundant store for SiteMinder’s configuration information. Unfortunately, the SiteMinder documentation covering how to configure OpenLDAP is at best incomplete and at worst incorrect. This article breaks down the steps required to enable OpenLDAP to be a Policy Store and configure the Policy Server to leverage the directory. Keep in mind that SiteMinder currently only supports OpenLDAP 2.3.x. This means that only Master/Slave replication is supported. While this is sufficient to ensure the availability of the Policy Store, if the Master directory is down, no policy or key updates can be performed. This article also assumes that the Key Store is set to the default setting of using the Policy Store as the location to store key information. Switch the directory paths outlined below to use backslashes if these steps are being performed on Windows.<br /><br />1. Download and Install OpenLDAP<br />This article does not cover the specific details on how to build and install OpenLDAP. The details for this can be found on the OpenLDAP site. A quick start guide is located there as well.<br /><br />2. Download the OpenLDAP Schema Files for SiteMinder<br />OpenLDAP is considered a “Tier 2″ directory for SiteMinder. As such, the ability to configure the directory as a Policy Store is not automated. In order to obtain the needed schema files for the Policy Store, the “CA SiteMinder Tier 2 Directories- ESD Only” package must be downloaded. To download this file (current as of 10/12/2011):<br /><br /> 1. Log in to the Technical Support Site<br /> 2. Click “Download Center” in the lefthand navigation<br /> 3. Type siteminder into the “Select a Product” field<br /> 4. Select the listed SiteMinder product<br /> 5. Select 12.0 in the “Select a Release” drop-down<br /> 6. Select SP3 in the “Select a Gen level” drop-down<br /> 7. Click the [GO] button<br /> 8. Scroll down to the bottom of the list of returned downloads<br /> 9. Download and unzip the “CA SiteMinder Tier 2 Directories- ESD Only” download to the Policy Server<br /><br />3. Configure OpenLDAP To Support the SiteMinder Policy Store<br />The OpenLDAP server requires manual configuration to support its use as a SiteMinder Policy Store. The following steps are required:<br /><br />3a. Copy the Policy Store schema files into the OpenLDAP schema directory<br />3b. Include the SiteMinder Policy Store schema files in the OpenLDAP configuration<br />3c. Ensure that SiteMinder can detect it is an OpenLDAP Policy Store<br />3d. Create the base Policy Store structure<br />3e. Restart OpenLDAP<br /><br />Note that these instructions assume that the install location for OpenLDAP is under the /usr/local path and the default directories are used. For this example, the root of the directory is “dc=company,dc=com” for the location of the Policy Store. These steps will need to be modified if a different path or directory structure is used.<br /><br />3a. Copy the Policy Store schema files into the OpenLDAP schema directory<br />The OpenLDAP schema needs to be extended to support the SiteMinder Policy Store objects. This is done by copying the schema files to the server and adding them into the slapd.conf configuration file. To copy the schema files:<br />.........<br /><a href="http://www.coreblox.com/blog/2011/10/configuring-openldap-as-a-siteminder-policy-store/" target="_blank"> More Here </a><br /><br />Courtesy:http://www.coreblox.com/blog/2011/10/configuring-openldap-as-a-siteminder-policy-store/Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-52265625522968487092011-10-04T17:56:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.082-07:00SiteMinder federation to SharePoint 2010This paper shows how to configure identity federation between CA SiteMinder and Microsoft SharePoint 2010, using the CA Federation Manager Add-on for SiteMinder. Two scenarios are presented. The first is an intra-organizational scenario that is useful where SiteMinder, the user accounts, and SharePoint are all maintained within the enterprise. The second is a traditional identity federation scenario where the user accounts are maintained outside of the enterprise hosting SharePoint. A federated identity environment features the following advantages:<br /><br />· Helps control Information Technology (IT) costs and gain efficiencies. Federation targets areas that require lots of manual processes such as user account management, and access management. These manual processes are the focus of cost control.<br /><br />· Enables compliance with expanding regulatory requirements. A standards-based identity federation can increase security of websites and portals and enable an organization to identify and authenticate a user only once. The organization can then use that identity information to access multiple systems which can include websites of external partners and various portals.<br /><br />While both scenarios create a federated identity environment, the techniques or methodology used in the two lab scenarios is different. The two lab scenarios are:<br /><br />1. Lab scenario 1 - Intra-organization scenario. In this lab scenario, SiteMinder is the Trusted Identity Provider for SharePoint and authenticates users to one or more user directories maintained within the organization. Once authenticated, these users (which may be employees, partners or customers) can access SharePoint as well as other applications protected by SiteMinder. This lab scenario uses the CA Federation Manager Add-on to SiteMinder (a.k.a., SiteMinder Federation Security Services) to generate a WS-Federation 1.0 token that is in turn read by SharePoint 2010.<br /><br />2. Lab scenario 2 - Cross-organization, traditional Federation scenario. In this lab scenario, SiteMinder is deployed at the external partner organization, along with the CA Federation Manager Add-on, and Microsoft AD FS 2.0 is deployed within the enterprise where SharePoint is hosted. SiteMinder authenticates the partners to the partner organization's user directory and generates a SAML 2.0 token. AD FS 2.0, which acts as a security token service, translates the SAML 2.0 token into a WS-Federation token for use with SharePoint. In this lab scenario, we also configure SharePoint's native claims-based Windows provider to illustrate how employees within the enterprise could access SharePoint alongside partners who use the federated approach (The claims-based Windows provider is listed along with the other Identity Providers configured in ADFS 2.0, in the lab it is identified with as ADFSMachine.CompanyA.com).<br /><br />Courtesy:http://interopvendoralliance.org/labs/siteminder-federation-to-sharepoint-2010.aspxAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-32688498342594326382011-10-04T17:54:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.069-07:00SiteMinder Overview<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">CA SiteMinder is enterprise level web access management software which allows organizations to manage their web users and help control their access to applications, portals and web services.<br /><br />SiteMinder consists of two core components:<br /><br />Policy Server:<br /><br />The Policy Server provides policy management, authentication, authorization, and accounting.<br /><br />SiteMinder Agents: <br /><br />Integrated with a standard Web server or application server, SiteMinder Agents enable SiteMinder to manage access to Web applications and content according to predefined security policies.<br /><br />How CA SiteMinder Works:<br /><br />The process for securely accessing web applications:<br /><br />1.

Firstly of all, it is cheaper to buy a broadband deal online. Because it is cheaper for companies to be set up on the net it means their overheads are lesser, so you can expect a better deal. You will also find that there is far more choice online, which makes things easier for you. <br /><br />Of course, with all of this choice comes another problem in itself. You will find it difficult to narrow things down so that you can choose the right deal! The best way to get around this problem is to use a <a href="http://www.broadbandchoices.co.uk/using-a-broadband-comparison-service.html">broadband comparison service</a> on the internet. These sites make searching for broadband deals so much easier. You will be able to look at a range of different broadband deals next to each other so that you can really see which is the most valuable. <br /><br />Another good thing to do is to try to piece together your broadband contract with your home phone contract and you satellite television contract. Doing this normally leads to some sort of discount on all three, and you can still search for comparison sites so that you can look at these deals alongside one another. To find out about <a href="http://www.broadbandchoices.co.uk/digital-tv-and-broadband-bundle-guide.html">broadband phone and digital TV</a> deals you should also search for the review sites online so that you can get the reviews of the best ones. for instance if you are thinking of signing up to a deal with Sky, you should be looking for a <a href="http://www.broadbandchoices.co.uk/sky-broadband-reviews.html">Sky broadband review</a> site so you can find out how they perform in terms of their customer service. Just take your time making your decision, and make sure you know exactly what you are signing up for, before you sign up for it!<br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-63468653414179532762011-08-10T13:13:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.086-07:00Finding a quality server cabinet for less onlineIf you run a business that relies on computers then you will be well aware of how important it is to have a good contact that can deal with any computer issues you have. If any parts fail in your computer system it is imperative that you are able to get the replacement parts you need quickly and easily with plenty of choice too. It’s not always easy to do this, so to help yourself in the future you should work on finding a website that can service all your needs. If you find a decent site then you can go back to it and back to it, knowing that you will be able to solve your problems quickly and easily.<br /><br />Finding the right site depends largely on what your system requires, but if you have things like a <a href="http://www.microbite.co.uk/categories/racking.htm">server cabinet</a> that might need changing from time to time, it is important that you find a site which is able to give you plenty of options. A server cabinet can be expensive, but there are some sites which will offer new, used and refurbished parts, meaning you can save a bit of money on occasions.<br /><br />Some sites are fantastic both for sourcing the more unusual parts and keeping in stock the parts that you require more frequently. You should look out for companies who keep a ready stock of things like <a href="http://www.microbite.co.uk/categories/network.htm">Netgear routers</a>, because this is the sort of thing that you are going to need sent out the very next day, so stock is important in this respect.<br /><br />To find the right sort of site you it is best to search for something like <a href="http://www.microbite.co.uk/">computer parts UK</a> to make sure you end up with a company that is based closely. Otherwise, you could find that you are subject to very expensive delivery fees. Look for companies that will source parts for you even if they don't have a stock of them themselves, and try to make sure that the site you find is able to deliver quickly and cheaply and able to offer you plenty of options when it comes to buying computer parts.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2293719803923080398.post-71952110948755892242011-05-26T08:41:00.000-07:002012-09-26T04:09:06.091-07:00CA Identity Manager High Availability & JBoss Clustering<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">CA Identity Manager 12.x uses caching for transactions. The utilization of this feature can cause synchronization issues if the application is setup in a high availability mode without application server clustering.<br /><br />An example I can give is a project I was involved with using JBoss as the CA IdM application server. As such I will be addressing JBoss clustering in this entry.<br /><br />JBoss uses a Hypersonic database to manage internal JMS data (JMS Queues). JBoss uses the JMS queues for tracking tasks and processes within the application. It is recommended to use a shared MS SQL database for the JMS database. There are documents available online which explain how to migrate from Hypersonic to MS SQL. In my example we opted to use the same MS SQL infrastructure used by Identity Manager to house the JMS database. In simplified terms, the steps to accomplish to clustering of IdM on JBoss is as follows:<br /><br />1. Create a new SQL database (JBOSS_JMS)<br /><a name='more'></a>2. Create a user/owner for this DB (jbossjms)<br />3. Migrate JBoss to SQL from the Hypersonic DB<br />4. Bring all services back up and test to ensure the migration was successful<br />5. Follow the procedures in the IdM documentation to configure JBoss clustering<br /><br /><a href="http://www.idmworks.com/blog/ca-identity-manager-high-availability-jboss-clustering" target="_blank">More Here</a><br /><br />Courtesy:http://www.idmworks.com/blog/ca-identity-manager-high-availability-jboss-clustering</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01149245668435498751noreply@blogger.com1
