This is nothing to do with coding. Every time I open SAP Crystal Reports application, it will prompt database login window. How to avoid the prompting of database login?
I knew that there are some similar questions to this one, but all related to coding. Can it be done without coding? Or is there a setting to avoid this in the application?
Whenever you open Crystal Reports you need to re-connect to your data-sources and will be prompted for login credentials if required.

When I add a new Data source via the web browser, there is the following option: 'Log in using these credentials, but then try to impersonate the user viewing the report'?
What does this option do?
What are the advantages?
I tried and read the docs but I still don't understand it.
This is with latest version of SQL reporting service.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
As there is no answer yet I will explain what a colleague of mine told me in short.
It basically comes down that you login with an order account it's privilege's.
So in the meantime I am not using it as I don't see the advantage of it and only complicates things.
I have the following doubt, how recommendable it is to use a global user so that all the people in the company execute a report, I ask this because I am using rest_v2 and JasperReports Server 8.0.0 to generate reports, the problem is in the logoff, since although only run the report the user remains in session until his session on the server expires, so it occurred to me to keep a single user in session 24/7 and that with that user everyone executes their reports, this is a good or bad practice ?
I'm currently trying to make an application only open if an administrator login is entered into a dialog box. I've tried using an AppleScript under the following method:
set adminLogin to do shell script "" with administrator privileges
display dialog adminLogin
This displays the dialog I'd like, and I was able to throw this into an NSTask to perform it. I can even grab the output and use that to close the application under and if statement.
I'd like to be using the actual application rather than osascript to mention that it requires an administrator login to continue, and this scpt file vanishes as soon as I compile, build, and archive this for actual usage, meaning I'd have to re-add this file post-creation to all of the clients I am making this for. It doesn't seem too effective for the fact that it relies on a different task for a quick login that could possibly be exploited rather than using the same process that the application is holding.
Is there a way I can programmatically ask for an administrator login to continue opening the application? Could I use CoreLocation and-or could I use AuthorizationServices() to perform this task?
Take a look at the LocalAuthentication framework. There is a policy for deviceOwnerAuthentication which handles both Touch ID and device passcode authentication.

I work at a moderately sized company and we currently have Citrix Xendesktop 7 tied in with our AD and domain. We have 25 clients we're having employees test right now via the Web Storefront.
Everyone can log in with their domain credentials fine enough, but the image treats every session as if it is a brand new Windows session whenever they first log in for the day (First-time user prompts for Adobe Acrobat, Word Processor, no initial file associations, etc).
Besides having everyone log directly into the main desktop image to save their profile, how would I go about configuring the applications so they don't treat everyone as a brand new user during each session? (I remember someone saying this could be accomplished through the registry settings but I couldn't pull the thread back up for reference).
I'd suggest Citrix UPM and use group policy for folder redirection. You may just need to configure the settings for your environment. You can then have mandatory or unique profiles set.

A program I wrote crashes on startup. (Win XP).
A dialog "Please tell Microsoft about this problem." appears. I want to be told about the problem since it's my app.
Thing is, clicking through (clicking link: 'View the contents of the error report'), the "Error Report Contents" dialog doesn't let my customers copy its contents to the clipboard.
Do you know how a user can get a copy of this report to forward to me, the developer?
Don't worry. The developers can subscribe to WinQual. Microsoft will then forward the error reports to them.
Windows Error Reporting is part of Microsoft's Winqual service.
Sign up at the Winqual web site. Instead of just using a username/password to log in, you'll need to purchase an SSL certificate to identify yourself and your organization. This costs $99 if you only need the cert for identification purposes. If you also want to use it to sign code, it's $499.
Run the Microsoft Product Feedback Mapping Tool (available from the Winqual site) on a local copy of your application, and submit the results to the Winqual web site. This registers your application with Winqual.
From this point forward, any errors reported via Windows Error Reporting against your submitted applications are available to you if you log in to Winqual.
Use Alt-printscreen that grabs a copy of the active window, then paste it into word or something.
