FileMaker XML Web Publishing - filemaker

We currently have a FileMaker Server instanace running, it already has PHP web publishing running.
I'm just wondering is it as simple as ticking enable XML web publishing for it to be up and running or have I got to restart the server??
Thanks

You need to enable it in the server deployment, then you need at least 1 user account in the file with the extended privilege to grant access via php/xml/iwp etc. You will need a user account in EACH file you want to have access to with the appropriate extended privilege.
Then comes the fun of actually working with the FMXML or FMPHP engine hehe.

How can I give server access to my Developer?

I am have AWS EC2 Server with my App Backend and Database there.
My new developer needs to upload few things in the Database and update Backend code but I don't want to give him the PEM.
He needs to SSH
Whats the best possible way to do it? I was thinking of creating an IAM User for him - but I only want him to give SSH Access, so permission would that be? I could only find a general full permission EC2 which would also give him permission to edit the Security Group and things like that.
I do trust him well, but I just don't want to give him full access in general.
What can I do?
Why not allow your developer to connect using session manager.
If you use this he can access the environment either in his browser or via the AWS CLI.
He should be able to mimic a regular session but without having the key, then when he's done you remove the permissions of the server. You can also enable logging to check the history of his sessions actions.
If you want to update code you should at some point take a look at using code deploy to have the code automatically rolled out without even accessing the server.

Identify login with Administrative access on SSAS instance using query or Powershell

Want to identify the users/login with Administrative access on server to migrate them to new server's. I have tried Select * from $System.TMSCHEMA_ROLE_MEMBERSHIPS but these give information regarding the particular database i need more at server level.
Ssas users are done quite differently from normal databases. Ssas uses only the active directory account of the user trying to connect.
On server level the only security is done in the properties of the server, there you can select active directory users with administrative access to the server.
On database level you can create roles, give them access to (part of a) database and link active directory users/groups to them.
Using the analysisservices namespace of microsoft you already mentioned you can look trough every role in every database and note the permissions.
As far as I know you can't actually use this namespace to see all the administrators of the user. But unless you have an unreasonable amount of administrators the best solution might be to just open the server in sql server management studio, click on properties, security and write down all the AD members manually.
I hope this helps you and good luck!

How can I add a service account to IIS8?

Actually I need to access to another folder at different server at the same network. I am planing to generate a kind of active directory user to work with the web server and my data server. How can I add it to my IIS 8?
I can't find any link to add access to Authentication section at IIS.
appreciate any help.
Ok I found solution! Simple as few click!!!
you can do it with following my Guid:
Select Application Pool at IIS8
Right click on the related pool and select advanced Setting
Find Identity under Process Model section
Set your credential at Custom account section.
it is done and don't forget to recycle the application pool and restart your web services.

How do I force the use of Windows authentication on only part of a web site?

I am building a site using ASP.NET MVC 2. The site itself needs to be public but the admin section should require a windows login and the user logging in needs to have local admin privileges on the server.
i.e. http://server/site should be open, but http://server/site/admin should force an admin login before proceeding.
Can this be done in code or by tweaking the web.config file? If necessary, making configuration changes to IIS is acceptable but I am trying to keep deployment steps down to a minimum.
I don't know if you can do this in web.config, or even if it's possible via IIS in an MVC application (since /site/admin won't exist on the file system), but it is possible to have different permissions for different folders under IIS. You will need to use the IIS manager to configure this.
You may also be able to use an AuthorizeAttribute on your admin controller.
This turned out to be fairly straightforward:
Enable Windows Authentication in IIS.
Enable Windows Authentication in web.config.
Decorate each action that needs to be secure with [Authorize(Roles = "Admin")].

Jabber Openfire server v3.6.0a+ - how do I use Hybrid authentication?

I've got pretty much the same question as: Jabber Openfire server v3.6.0a+ - how do I use Hybrid authentication?
But when I followed the instructions there, and I go into the Admin interface > Users and Groups > Create New User, I get the following message:
Not allowed: the user account system is read-only.
That tells me that the system is trying to add to the LDAP structure, and not to the database. Does anyone have a working config that allows both LDAP and Database users to login, and to be able to create Database Users?
I believe in the latest version of Openfire, settings are pulled from the database but not the openfire.xml file. Unfortunately, there's little documentation on their site.
OK... so I have been looking for how to do this for 6 months now. And not more than 15 mins after I post this question, I find the link here:
http://community.igniterealtime.org/message/204225
Also, the settings are now saved in the databsae, so the openfire.xml is irrelevant for these settings.
