Announcements & News / Re: ALERT: GSKit 8.0.55.26+ & Post-Quantum Cryptography

« Last post by Justin Derrick on April 26, 2024, 11:41:42 AM »

Just a quick update since CMOD v10.5 FP8 was released this week.  The new FixPack doesn't change the behaviour of CMOD, because altering the current behaviour would mean that OnDemand would no longer be FIPS compliant.

The documentation has been updated to describe the change, but I imagine it would be trivial to miss this very important change:  https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cmofm/10.5.0?topic=clients-setting-up-ssl-windows

He did and I now have an even larger list of users and groups than I had yesterday after I pulled all the filtering off the LDAP_USER_FILTER.
Enclosing the (memberOf...) statement in "" didn't help.

That isn't correct. Base DN needs to be DC=XXX,DC=XXXX,DC=XXXXX,DC=com

Your IBM Consultant will reach out to you.

The BASE DN is different because we're using LDAP to authenticate the small set of users accessing documents with the Thick Client:
ARS_LDAP_BASE_DN="OU=XXXXX People,DC=XXX,DC=XXXX,DC=XXXXX,DC=com"

You are missing the ARS_LDAP_BASE_DN parameter. Can you share that?

MP Server / ARSLSYNC Issues

« Last post by JeanineJ on April 23, 2024, 09:10:38 AM »

I'm attempting to run ARSLSYNC on my RHEL7 CMOD 10.5 development box. It's been giving me fits. No matter what I do the only way I'm getting any output is with these settings in ars.cfg
ARS_LDAP_SERVER_TYPE=AD
#ARS_LDAP_USER_FILTER=(&(objectClass=user)(memberOf=CN=CMOD_XXX_Business_dev,"OU=XXXX Groups,DC=xxx,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxxx,DC=com"))
ARS_LDAP_GROUP_USER_FILTER_USE_DN=FALSE
ARS_LDAP_USER_FILTER=(objectClass=user)
ARS_LDAP_GROUP_FILTER=(objectClass=group)
ARS_LDAP_GROUP_MAPPED_ATTRIBUTE=CN
ARS_LDAP_IGN_GROUPS=Security,CMOD_Admin,CMOD_Operations
The above gives me EVERYBODY in AD except CMOD_XXX_Business_dev. I can't get the filters to work to bring in the only group with 4 users into my Dev environment. According to my identity people the group exists in AD and has 4 users defined.
If I attempt to use the USER_FILTER code ARSLSYNC doesn't find the users or group running with the just -t -v options.
Has anyone been successful using ARSLSYNC to provision users in CMOD that are part of Group?
I am in consultation with IBM Lab Services as part of a work effort to authenticate a small group of users accessing documents via the Thick Client via AD and SSL, which is working fine. Lab Services is also looking at the issue as I've sent them the trace and output.
I'm running CMOD MP 10.5.0.5 on a RHEL7 server with DB2 11
I know next to nothing about AD or LDAP.

Hello JMichael -

ARSJESD is the ONLY piece of code from IBM that starts with ARS that isn't supported by the CMOD Level 2 team.

It's supported by the PSF folks (Print Services Facility).

You'll need to open up a problem ticket with them.

MP Server / ARSJESD

« Last post by JMichael on April 19, 2024, 11:29:56 AM »

Hello,
Our problem is with ARSJESD, the files that normally come in after sent from the mainframe get processed and this directory remains empty. We're seeing some file processed correctly and others are not.  We reviewed the capture log file and for the files that are not being removed we noticed the OUTGRP=LAST record is not in the log.  This is what's causing the files to be left behind because the script that removes them never finds the OUTGRP=LAST.  This started after an upgrade to RHEL8.  We think there is an issue with the ARSJESD, can you support. Any info is appreciated.

Report Indexing / Floating trigger + PDF Graphical Indexer

« Last post by jsquizz on April 15, 2024, 01:28:11 PM »

Hi All,

I have a requirement to index a file using the PDF graphical indexer.

I need to capture line by line some fields, that are normally easy to grab using a floating trigger in the ACIF world.

Using a floating trigger now, it creates the green box for the trigger, however when I run the loader - it only picks up the first trigger/field defined.

Is there a way to make this work? I get that the pdf indexer is a bit "out dated" but theres no other solution unfortunately.

Thanks
