If I wanted to implement some sort of chat tool in my django webapp, implemented with basic ajax polling as opposed to comet, what should I do to secure it, besides running over SSL. Should I just use the permissions app for each chat session and generate a random token to be accessed in my urlconf? Are there better/different approaches ...

We have installed TFS 2010 with success but wonder how to set the users permissions. We are small projects with five developers, a manager and a secretary. Each developer is working itself with one or more projects, we have no cooperation between any projects. We want everyone to be able to see all the code for each project, but that onl...
Okay, so originally I was going to ask about dragging and dropping in Windows 7. I found the answer I was looking for here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2833709/c-drag-drop-does-not-work-on-windows-7. Basically it says that since I'm running Visual Studio (and subsequently, my program) with elevated permissions, some sort of isol...
Starting with Ant 1.7, the TarFileSet is available which seems to allow file permission modifications in the tar archive. Does this feature work platform-independent, so that I can for example create a tar file on Windows and set execution permissions for script files in this archive which will have this flag if the file is unpacked on ...
I really need help with my ASP.NET MVC 2 site... Simply put, I have a a folder Content/Photos in the root of my app. It has many pictures. For some very strange reason some pictures load just fine on my browser but other pictures give me a 403 error: You do not have permission to view this directory or page due to the access contro...
I am looking to understand how enterprise search solutions tackle the issue of user-permissions. My question is on displaying the search results for users. The naive approach would display the search results to the user, and then if the user clicks a document he is not authorized to see, he will fail to open it. However, it is even forb...
Could someone please explain owner/group/public permissions on files and directories in a web environment. My current understanding is that "Owner" is the person who created the file. Group, presumably are permissions granted to any user in Group 'Foo', and Public is, well, everyone. What I don't quite get is how this translates to a ...
Hi, I'm having a lot of problems trying to start an application as administrator on an application I'm writing when running it on XP Embedded. The application runs as the shell for a limited user account and is touch-screen and keyboard-less with one user command being to run the touch screen vendor's calibration tool. This must be run...
When I create a directory with PHP's mkdir(), the folders' owner is 'apache'. When I create a directory over FTP, the owner is 'ftpadmin'. For some strange reason, with PHP's rename() function I can't move any files into a directory owned by 'apache'. I've chmod() both the file and the directory to 777 and 0777, but 'apache' refuses to ...
I want to give access to certain data, in various databases on a single sql instance, to our parent company. They don't want a web service but instead want a stored procedure, which would compile data from different data sources and return a record set. There is a trust between our two domains so essentially they are on our domain and I...
My requirement is that user performing alter CANNOT be sysadmin (it can have all other rights but not sysadmin). I am running a query from local server which should modify a remote one EXEC ('ALTER DATABASE REMOTEDB MODIFY FILEGROUP ftfg_REMOTEDB NAME=ftfg_REMOTEDB') at [REMOTESERVER] This query works once I add sysadmin right to the...
Hi, I'm making an executable JAR that uses the RxTx serial library. It requires access to rxtxSerial.dll and I want the JAR to put it there automatically. That way I don't need an installer -- just a standalone JAR. Can this be done? When I call new FileOutputStream(new File("C:/Windows/rxtxSerial.dll")), I get the following excepti...
Suppose I have a directory on Linux with a bunch of files and subdirectories. This is that root directory: drwxr-xr-x 13 user1 group1 4096 May 7 15:58 apps Now, I only want to alter the group portion of those permissions. I want to alter it such that it matches exactly the owner portion. The result for that directory would be: d...
This console app code calls MSTest and starts to run the unit test but fails with "Access Denied" to some assemblies required for unit testing (see errors below code). Any way to smoothly make MSTest to run as Admin from here? I tried a manifest, didn't change anything, since the manifest refers to the calling app, not to mstest, right...
Hi, I've just set up SSRS for my office. Some users need to be able to run Report Builder. I've created an AD global group and used Report Manager to assign Report Builder privileges to that group. I've verified that the Report Builder configuration on SSRS is correct. Even after these users are assigned to the Report Builder role, ...

I can't seem to update my configuration file in c:\ProgramData\appname\config.ini. I keep getting an access denied error. Seems the ini code fails to be able to delete the existing .ini file when trying to update it with the new file. Funny thing is that I have other programs I've written that share the same code but don't have this prob...
So I want a way to set chmod 755 to /opt/lampp/htdocs and all of its content including subfolders and files, and If I create a new folder or file the chmod of that should be also 755. chmod 75 /opt/lampp/htdocs works but only for this folder :| ...
