Thanks for the replies. I've had similar problems as everyone described
with guest and upper case before, but that's not the case in this
example.  No LDAP or Orcale here, we're exclusively  Windows in our
Remedy environment. 

Last time I had this issue I ended up deleting the user and recreating
the account, I was just trying to prevent from going that route again.

 

*Fix*

I ended up deleting all the group and license information in both the
People and User form for the user.  Once that was done, I set the
account back up and had the user test.  He was immediately able to login
with a floating license, much faster than recreating his entire account.
Thanks for the suggestion Sean.

I have had this as well where the user says they are logged in as
"username" but when you check the logged in users under license review
they were logged in as "Username" and we allow guest users so it was
assigned them to a read licenses as a quest.

Are you running Oracle and LDAP?  The funny thing is Oracle is case
sensitive but LDAP is not.  So when a user logs in as "Jsmith" vs
"jsmith" they may get a read license because Remedy/oracle can't resolve
"Jsmith".  (Assuming his user record is "jsmith").  Another thing to
check is the .multilicense file.  If you are running unix remove it from
the /etc/arsystem directory (note: it's a hidden file) and restart the
server.  In addition check to see if you are allowing guest users.  He
may be misspelling his user id and the system is letting him in any way
as a guest user.  The last thing I would do is check his "CTM:People"
record vs. what is actually in his "User" record.  Sometimes you have to
go back and remove/add permissions again to get the "User" record
corrected.

 

Thanks,

 

Sean

I'm having a hard time tracking down a really odd problem I'm having.
It's only affecting one or two users, but up to this point BMC has been
little help.  

*         AR Server 7.0.1 Patch 006

*         Mid-Tier 7.0.1 Patch 006

*         ITSM 7.0.1

 

 

I have a user that has had a working account for over a year, and
randomly last week he was unable to login via the Mid-tier or user tool.
I've checked the logs and the Admin tool and I can see the user is
receiving a Read  license, even though he is set for a floating (both
app and server).  I've tried removing his licensing and adding them but
that doesn't help.  Does anyone have any thoughts?  

 

Thanks
