    - Session Management in Webpart?! Hi all, I want to use the session management in webpart. I would like to explain my scenario: 1. I have a dynamic treeview webpart on the left panel. which generates tree from database. Now I have given different permissions to different users.how to display menus based on their permissions i.e. the menu should generate. When you request SPS it will ask username and password?. How do I pass username and password to the webpart so that only respective menus will be displayed on webpart. 2. On click on tree menu how do I pass the querystring (parameter) or how do I display the applications on rightpanel of the same default.aspx. See I have not created the webpart for these applications. these are web applications(C#). 3. There are two scenario from the tree menu, onclick the application should be displayed on the same default.aspx and the application should display on new window.(In this case, again how session ID can be passed from webpart to custom application.

    - Is there an limitation on the number of audiences that can be compiled in SPS2003? I had just over 280 audiences. As the number of audiences increased over 150, the number that were failing to compile increased. My audiences range from about 10 users to 25,000 users. Most of the audiences are defined by Active Directory groups When I reduced the number of audiences to 140 they compiled just fine again Is there a limit to the number of audiences that SPS can compile? Additionally, is there a way to increase the amount of time that SharePoint uses to compile these groups? Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 42040

    - URGENT REPOST - search scope to multiple document libraries Hi al Sorry for the continued reposts, but I really need an answer to this - even if that answer is that it is not possible!! Is it possible to create a search scope that points to multiple document libraries We have 'News' document libraries for each of our Divisions & Sub Divisions (in their respective portal areas) Following usability testing the idea of a search scope that could search across all the 'News' document libraries came up Is this feasible and if so how do I go about this Many thanks in advance Regard Kevi Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 42035

    - Problems with SPIn.exe dying (read on) When using the import too, SPIn.exe, on some document library imports it just dies at some random point (not always the same percent completed when it dies). If I'm using the "hotfix version" (May/2004) of SPIn.exe, it does not give me any message, just dies and returns to the command prompt; If using the old (Feb/2004) version, I get an "Out of memory" exception dialog, then return to the prompt, also at random points; Before I open a support incident with Microsoft, have anyone seen something like this, and if so, have you got around it and how? I've seen at least two different unhandled exceptions on SPOut.exe, but they where on GUI code and did not prevent the export from running. This one, though, is a show stopper.

    - News web part -- duplicates Hi, (again Still trying to figure this stuff out. We have a "news" web part. When I add a new document to a document library, it also appears in the news web part. If I delete the document from the document library, it remains in the new web part. This has also led to the creation of lots of duplicate items in the news area I don't know if our configuration and our gallery of web parts is standard. Does this sound familiar? Can anyone help me to better understand what's happening here Thanks Art Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 42007

    - Grouped Listings Hi I'm very new at this. In each sub area I see a web part for "grouped listings". If I add the grouped listing web part to any page, I see a list of everything that's been uploaded to that page Where I'm confused is One page (set up by a vendor for us) has a grouped listing. I see quite a few things listed there that do not appear to be anywhere else. Also, I saw a few listings for items that I had deleted (in that case I found a broken link when I tried to view them). Finally, among the listings I see duplicates Do all of these items live somewhere else? If so, how can I find them I'd appreciate any help at all Art Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 42005

    - Proposal Accelerator Install Have been attempting install of Office Proposals Accelerator on Sharepoint Portal Server default web site (extended). Proposals reside on "//<server name>/sites/US/Proposals." I can create a customer proposal library at subsite which apparently seems populated with a proposal document. Instructions indicate to open with "edit in Microsoft Word" which I can do. Word stops at installation of Document Action pane then delivers a pop up that announces "remote server error: (404) not found". My Word work area is blank and I do not see any proposal document. I have checked configuration of content database and that looks good. Additionally, top level portal site works okay.

    - SSL Problem: Server name changes to ip adress Hello We are running SharePoint on a Windows 2003 server with IIS 6. We installed a SSL certificate and the portal runs fine using HTTPS:// We installed some third party web parts before we installed the certificate. Everything worked fine an all the webparts showed up under the virtual server gallery. As soon as we enable SSL (under directory security in IIS6) all the web parts in the virtual server gallery are disapeard We even can't install new WebParts using STSADM. It results in "The configuration database could not be updated." error. It' seems that we need to use the virtual servers IP address instead of the FQN (https://wss.test.com) since the the URL listed in the virtual serve list changed from SERVERNAME to the IP Address. Does anybody know a solution to this problem??? Emil Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41984

    - Restoring a corrupted SPSv2 default.aspx by direct SQL? The home page of our SPS v2 is corrupted (it appears of all things to be some sort of broken WSS page now) This is an excerpt from the thread that Ed Lee thought I should take a look at. It looks exactly like what I need. Problem is I don't know SQL. Can anyone sort of tell me what's going on here line by line. I can get to the SQL prompt at the command line, figure out how to connect to the SQL instance. I just don't know how to implement the query outlined here. If there is another way, or better way to do this in Enterprise manager, then point me there. We are running MS SQL 2K. ************************************************************* Yes. Every aspx page for each area has a corresponding entry in the DOCS table of the SITE content database. By default, the content field for this document is null, and it is being generated from the portal templates. When you modify a Sharepoint Portal page in FP2003 and save it, the entire file is uploaded into the DOCS table. You can run an update query against that table to clear the content field of the row that corresponds to the customizied aspx page for the Home area. Here is the basic SQL query you could use: UPDATE Docs SET Content = NULL WHERE LeafName = 'default.aspx' AND Content IS NOT NULL AND DirName = '' This would kill the modified home area, and load it from the template restoring it's default look. **************************************************************** Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41954

Unfortunately, it's not obvious how to do this. The Backup/Restore GUI doesn't show the document library as an indivdual component. "SPSBackup /doclib" does not fail, but it does not work, either. It crates a 5 MB log of mostly blank lines. Smigrate didn't like me using the URL of the doc lib, rather than the URL of the top level site. SPADM also wanted me to operate at the top-level. Are there other ways to copy a document library? I'm assuming spin.exe created the library in the SQL Store instead of WSS. Can I use SQL tools to do the export/import, or will the production server need other configuration data that would not get imported this way? Also, does anyone know what will happen when I import documents created or modified by users who are not on the new domain? What if the doc lib contains file types that are blocked by the prod server? Will they be blocked as well, or will the import process bipass that protection? Thanks in advance for your time and insight! Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41931

    - Sharepoint Services backup What is the best way to backup SharePoint Service. The help files says I can use Microsoft SQL Server 2000 tools to back up the databases, Stsadm.exe command-line tool to back up individual site collections and Microsoft SharePoint Migration Tool (smigrate.exe) to back up individual sites and subsites. Iâ??m not clear whether I should use both SQL backup and Stsadm.exe or can use just Stsadm.exe? Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41918

    - anonymous acces and administration Hi, I need urgent help for this matter: we need to give anonymous acces to a sharepoint portal server site and at the same time we need to administrate it from an Intranet with active directory, in a way that if the user is connected through Internet he can see the site without providing username but if I connect from my PC I'll be asked for a username and a password to manage the site. Thanks for helping. Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41917

    - WSS / SPS2003 Document Checkout We're currently moving from an SPS2001 to a SPS 2003 environment. My question centers around checking documents in/out. With 2001 these options were all available via Windows Explorer using network places. However with 2003 it appears that the only method for accomplishing a check-in or out is via IE, or Office 2003. The problem I'm having is this doesn't allow an easy way to check out multiple documents easily. Is there a method of accomplishing this which I'm missing Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41915

    - Profile Updates I have my profile database setup to pull from the AD and I do know that this pull is only one way. I have certain fields in the AD, like phone number, that I would like to allow users to update. Does anyone know of a webpart, or other web based tool that would allow me to open up certain fields in the AD for users to update? Thanks -jeff Tag: Sync User Profiles Properties with AD Tag: 41914

properties not to be overwritten. how do i prevent this from happening ?
seems that writing a custom ldap query seems to be the way. but where do i
enter the query ?

If you go to Site Settings, Manage Profile Database, you can create a custom
connection and build a customised LDAP using the search base and the user
filter. However, I'm not sure whether or not you will be able to limit the
properties gathered in this way.
