vCM creates accounts - they can be changed?
A security sweep turned up two user accounts created by vCM install.
CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR
ECMSRSUser
We are currently asked that these accounts comply with the password policy, but my concern is that it would break the vCM. Can anyone confirm this?
jddias,
You can delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account. I replaced it with success with a domain account. Here are the steps that I have spend my domain account work. Notice, this is a stand alone machine of the Agent Proxy, you will need to adjust accordingly if you do this on your collector:
- I do Member of the local Administrators group (perhaps not necessary, he did not test without doing that)
- I add the domain account to the local group CSI_COMM_PROXY_SVC.
- Grant full control permissions to where is located the agent VCM. In my case, I have computers of autonomous agent proxy (I do not use the collector). You will see that the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR had already here full control permissions. Revoke permissions for the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account and grant full control to the domain account.
- Grant full control to the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Configuresoft key (assuming that you are on an x 64 operating system, if not, then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Configuresoft). Again, see you that csi_comm_proxy_usr already had permissions, withdrawing and grant full control on your domain account.
- Change the service account on the service Proxy Communication CM to use your domain account and the duty cycle.
- If the Service will not be running, check the permissions of the steps 3 & 4 above
- If the service remains operational, I delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account at this stage.
- Restart the server
- Log the server with your domain account.
- Follow the steps to create new keys of AgentProxy
- Import the new AgentProxy keys in the collector
- Update the SSH key on the ESX hosts, you can simply add the key to the servername_ssh_public_key.txt ino the keystore allowed in /home/csi_acct/.ssh on each ESX host charged that the Agent Proxy.
- Note, you can add several ssh keys in this file. In our case, we have like 15 proxy agent. We have all the keys in this file we put on each ESX host.
- Repeat the above for each server proxy agent that you have.
- On my collectors, I turn off the service Proxy Communication CM, delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account and change to the local system, and then stop the service.
This will take care of your CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account.
The ECMSRSUser account is another story. This account is hardcoded in VCM. I found that documented in the release notes for the 5.3 & 5.4. Here is the link for 5.3 notes version: http://www.vmware.com/support/vcm/doc/vcm_53_release_notes.html. Just search ECMSRSUser on this page. This hard-coded account is always used in 5.4.1 but, it is not any longer in the release notes.
In our case, we have a security policy against local accounts on servers, so this begs a question. I worked with support on this when this account was first added to VCM. While it is not supported, you can delete this account. You just make sure you add the appropriate permissions in SSRS on your collector in the ECM Reports folder. You can use a group of authenticated users, domain or domain accounts, which either work for your environment. You grant Content Manager permissions. This solution "works" for us. Note, you will get security event anytime a SRS page is access from VCM, VCM always try to use the ECMSRSUser account, but as long as the Reporting SERVICES permissions are in place, everything still works. I have not fully validated this continues to work with 5.4.1, so make sure you test it. I found the account ECMSRSUser must exist if if you want to use the gui to Import/Export tool to export reports (the ecmie.exe command-line tool has not this dependency).
I submitted an enhancement request to fix this. It can only help if others do the same. We must consider the possibility of specifying domain accounts for those moments to install two. At a minimum, the password for the ECMSRSUser account doesn't have to be hard-coded.
I hope this helps.

Why map fonts sizes 13 and they can be changed permanently?
Character map letters are font size 13. They can be changed to something else so that in the character map, or what I constantly have to do once I've copied and pasted into my document?
Hello
Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community!
The font size in the character table cannot be changed, however; You see the paste special dialog box (after having copied something) by Ctrl + Alt + V and select Paste in the same order as other words in the page of unformatted Unicode text.
Please let me know the status of the issue. I will be happy to provide you with the additional options that you can use to get the problem resolved in Microsoft Windows.

I can't access email to verify my sync account. Can I change the address?
I had updated Firefox to 30.0 today and decided to use Sync.I had set up and was sent the email to verify my account, but have problems with my webmail TWC in which I can not access my mail . Is so I could change the e-mail address, or would I have to delete this account and create another with my Gmail address?
Hello!
Currently, Firefox Sync has no option to change your email address (perhaps because it is so easy to create and use a sync account). So you should delete your sync account and create a new.
I hope that solves your problem!
If so, would you please choose this answer as your solution? This would help other Firefox users to find help on the forums faster and more efficiently. Thank you!
And of course, feel free to post if you need help!

I'm on the admin account, but can not change PW for another admin.
Hello
I'm on the administrator account for the network that I am. One of the other admins left and does not leave his password. When I go to users and try to change his password (it has the files and settings, we need) to get access to his account, the option is not there to change the password (it is grayed out). How to change its password and/or the newspaper on his account?
Thank you very much
Hello
If you are the Admin and you can do what is necessary for the network, get rid of his account.
Otherwise, questions like these are much better handled in the IT Pro Forums on TechNet.

How can I change the SMTP server to any server I want to?
This is a common situation, and I have seen many others ask a similar question. It is a simple question, but Thunderbird does not seem to allow it. In my case, I have a choice of two mail server outgoing. I can use my hosting company Godaddy or my Internet provider, the local cable operator Charter Web. By default, Tbird uses the same mailserver incoming and outgoing, if possible, so my e-mail account has been configured to use the outgoing Godaddy server.
I would prefer, however, to use the local server SMTP of Charter. But I can't find any way to change to that of Tbird. I could do it in Outlook Express, because both servers are listed for each e-mail account and can be changed.
In Tbird, there is a drop down menu to choose an outgoing server, with no way to simply type in a new server. Or am I missing something? I think not, because others report the same problem. I have vague memories that awhile back, Tbird would you allow to specify all server to an e-mail account settings and then test their validity before finishing - a manual of against an automated way to set up an account.
The main thing is I want to review the outgoing server of what I want, but it doesn't seem to be a way to do it.
When your problem has been fixed can you mark the thread as "solved" Please?
Thank you. -
Can I change icons clone stamp and brush selection circles in CS5?
In much my older version of Photoshop, when I chose the duplication or brush, buffer their icons changed to a circle when I used them in the picture. This makes it much easier to work on small surfaces with buffer of duplication or brush - brush and clone stamp forms I have CS5 are not specific enough. They can be changed to circles? Thank you.

Make a standard user account. That's all. If they are not administrators - they are limited about changing their profile. They can even install some things that install on their profile only-, but no systemic change.
Or they can use the guest account - which is a bit more limited.http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-a-standard-user-account

To disable the account so they can sign documents even if they do not need to send or create them
I run into issues with account management for our groups. There are several accounts that have been created where users decide that they do not really need to create documents, but they still need the ability to sign documents that other users create and send their.
The problem that I am running is that as soon as I disable the user account, they are no longer able to sign a document that is sent to them. Instead, they are being asked to login to their account EchoSign, even if it has been disabled.
This attitude is contrary to the understanding that there is no need an account only to sign a document that is sent to their email address. We do have enough licenses to simply allow the accounts to remain active when the user does not intend to use them to send documents.
It seems I'm missing something very basic, because obviously, it should be simple enough to change a users permissions to be able to create documents that he is just able to sign documents they receive. Please lend me any advice you may have on this.
Hello d0Ryan,
By default, a signatory didn't need an E-Sign account to sign documents electronically. That being said, if a signer is not an account, then it should be active as inactive accounts cannot provide signatures. In your scenario, if you wish, we can remove users from your account and can convert them to release level so that they have the possibility of esign documents and still does not license paid into your account.
If this suites you, so please inbox me your EchoSign registered email address, with users who are involved.
Kind regards

I created a separate administrator account and can't get it to appear at startup. I need to send my Macbook repair and need this ID to show when they turn on him. How do I do that?
If you added via the preferences system/users and groups, it should appear as a long time that you have set the display of connection to appear. To do this, go to System Preferences/security and privacy. Then check the check box turn off automatic connection . This should show the login screen at startup. You may need to click the lock (lower-left) icon to unlock the setting to check it out.
