We have a setup on a customer's site with a main WinCC OA server in a secure network (dedicated subnet) with a second PC acting as a WebServer. All users connect to the system via the WebServer. There is a firewall between MainServer and WebServer that permits access to the MainServer only from the ...

Thanks everyone for your help, but I have now found out what the problem is, and what I need to do to get correct handling after a user changes their domain password. It seems to me that the function OaAuthMethodAD::getMustCreateUser is doing two separate things. Most obviously it is indicating whet...

OK thanks, I will put in some additional diagnostics to see what getOSDomainName returns in my development environment. But I thought that the idea of using my own implementation of isUserVerified was that I could then have control whether or not a user was authenticated. That is not happening. As I...

Thanks for the reply, sorry it has taken me so long to try out your suggestion - while working at home, I do not have a domain controller to use. But I can now get to work some days, and I have tried implementing my own isUserVerified function as you suggest. I can see that it is getting called but ...

Alex, Thanks for the link. I'm now confident that I can implement the required filtering.

Alex,

Initial requirement is for runtime alarms.

<t>Leopold: yes.<br/> <br/> I am talking about the active alerts display, which shows alerts that are in one of three states:<br/> <br/> 1. Active (CAME) and unacknowledged<br/> 2. Active (CAME) and acknowledged<br/> 3. Cleared (WENT) and unacknowledged<br/> <br/> We will not be using the double ack...

Alex, thanks for the response, but how do I filter by _act_state? Will I need to use a HOOK function (HOOK_aes_modifyQuery I would guess) to get at the raw SQL to apply the filter that I want?
