    - How to catch Trespassing Hi there Is there a way to know if someone is using my office computer while I am away? I have a windows password but anyone who knows my password or knows the administrator password can get into my computer, right? If the trespasser has the administrator password, it's no use for me to change my windows password then? How do I know for sure if people are getting in? And how to stop that? Also, is there a way to secure my emails (I use Microsoft Outlook) through some password so that no one can read them? Thanks Tag: Ports usage Tag: 82877

    - Authentication across untrusted domains Hello all, Heres my senario. I have two untrusted domains(in 2 diffrent untrusted forests), domain1 and domain2. Machine1 is a machine in domain1. Machine2 is a machine in domain2 which runs SQL Server 2000. I am trying to connect to the sql server on machine2(in domain2) from machine1 using the credentials 'domain2\administrator'. I use 'LogonUser' with the LOGON32_LOGON_NEW_CREDENTIALS flag and do a ImpersonateLoggedOnUser later. accoding to MSDN documentation for using the LOGON32_LOGON_NEW_CREDENTIALS flag " This logon type allows the caller to clone its current token and specify new credentials for outbound connections. The new logon session has the same local identifier but uses different credentials for other network connections. This logon type is supported only by the LOGON32_PROVIDER_WINNT50 logon provider. Windows NT: This value is not supported. ". Both LogonUser and ImpersonateLoggedOnUser succeed. This is expected Later when i do a 'Open' call on a ADODB::Connection object (to connect to the SQL Server on machine2.domain2 ) i can connect to it successfully I am curious to know how this work? Does it work using Kerberos or NTLM ? i expected it to be NTML. I used ethereal to trap the communication. I noticed that machine1 tries to authenticate with the domain controlller of domain2. i would like to know how a machine (here machine1 in domain1) can authenticate with a domain controller in an untrusted forest. Its kinda of a longish question. Thanks for the patience. Regards Swapnil D. Tag: Ports usage Tag: 82873

    - Using SSL Certificate for TSAC on NLB Windows 2003 Terminal Server We have 2-load balanced Terminal Severs on our Intranet called TERMSRV1 and TERMSRV2. We want to enable SSL on both for employee access via the Internet. The Intranet NLB Cluster Name is TERMSRV and the FQDN on the Internet is TERMSRV. We redirect HTTP requests for TERMSRV from the Internet to the Intranet FQDN/NLB Cluster name TERMSRV via redirection using ISA2004 and can do the same for HTTPS. Would the certificates for both TERMSRV1 IIS and TERMSRV2 IIS be unique to each server's FQDN or the NLB FQDN CLuster Name? Thanks, scott -- Scott Tag: Ports usage Tag: 82852

    - SmartCard and Key Archival I'm setting up Key archival and recovery in a Windows 2003 PKI. I've created a KRA user and issued a KRA certificate to him . Then I enabled the CA for Key archival selecting the user just created as KRA. I have modified a Smartcard User template , which I've been using successfully so far , to enable key archival . Then I tried to submit a certificate request on behalf of another user from the web enrollment pages to issue the new certificate template . The process fails with the following error ( logged on the CA ) I'm using E-Token from Alladin. Is this a problem with the token?

    - Spyware identification I've been tasked with developing a process for a help desk to follow when dealing with spyware/malware. Detailing remediation instructions is easy. The biggest challenge I see is the need to illustrate procedures for identifiying the problem as spyware to begin with. I'm suspicious of a number of new "spyware" issues and that this is becoming a techinical support bit bucket. Here's what I have to help them identify spyware: - Your computer slows down or "hangs" for no apparent reason - Your home page changes for no apparent reason - You experience slow network or Internet performance when other people are working fine - When you type an address in your browser (such as www.google.com) you are directed to a different search site - New toolbars appear within your browser - New Icons appear on your desktop - You have an increasing number of "pop-up" ads - especially on sites where you know no pop-up ads are generated (such as google or emory.edu) - You receive pop-up ads even when you are not surfing the internet Any thoughts, I'm particularly looking for those of you who've worked/are working for a help desk/call center now and what you've experienced.

The user will then try to open the G:\ from My computer, and they receive a message access denied.

Something similar is also happening to our Windows XP SP2 machines. For example, if I run a script against all our computers to check if a modem is installed a User Profile will be created for my account.

    - Critical Updates - "Try Microsoft Update" The other day we signed into our Critical Update page to see if there were any critical updates for our WinXPsp2. We noticed at the top of the screen the following printed announcement: "Try Microsoft Update." We understand this is a new program for Critical Updates and also included critical updates for MS Office, etc. The previous Critical Update 'Express' button was still there and I clicked on that. #1- We are told that this NEW "Try Microsoft Update" will replace the the Critical Update that we are now using. Is that true? #2- Can we continue to use the 'previous' critical update "Express" button? #3- If we do click on the "Try Microsoft Update" button, will we have to download ActiveX files, etc., so it will work? #4- If we only want to download the Critical Updates for WinXPsp2, is that possible? Or would we have to also download other updates for Office, etc.? (We never use Office!) #5- If we do switch to the new "Try Microsoft Update" and we find that we do not like it, can we switch back to the previuos Critical Update page that we have been using (with the Express and Custom buttons)?...... Please advise because we are quite confused as what to do. We don't want to click on the "Try Microsoft Update" and find out we have to download alot of files that we will never use and also, once we click on it, we can never switch back to the old Critical Update page. (We read the Try Microsoft Update information page but it did not enlighten us too much. We did post in another forum, but think that one was incorrect and that this forum is the right one.)

    - Monitoring msn messenger presence For about 4 months now someone has been trying to guess the answers to my secret questions for my Hotmail email addresses. I am presuming that this is a guy I was seeing very briefly as this has never happened to me before I met him and I have also started getting nuisance calls to both my mobile and landline phone he's the only person who knows of both these numbers, I called my mobile operator and they told me to report these calls to the police and that they'll probably want to ask me a few questions and provide me with a crime reference number so I can have my phone number changed free of charge. When I log onto msn messenger the would-be hacker stops trying to guess the answers to my secret questions, two of my email addresses have had people whom I don't know, add themselves as contacts and I can't remove them as they obviously need to remove me first. I have tried sending these contacts emails and im's to ask them if they can remove me but the emails never get to their inbox as I always receive a failure to deliver email from hotmail. With one of my other email addresses no-one has added themselves as a contact but every time I log onto messenger using this moniker they stop trying to guess the answer to my secret question which is what I don't understand as I also always appear offline when I do log onto messenger so they can't track my online presence through other methods, or so I had thought but it seems as if they can somehow. I have sent hotmail an email and explained to them the problem and asked them to close all email accounts that this person is trying to hack but they said they couldn't and that I shouldn't access my accounts for a number of days then the accounts will be closed automatically. I am wondering if anyone knows of any type of software that this person could be using to monitor my presence on msn messenger. Thanks in advance. Tag: Ports usage Tag: 82688

    - Sever 2000 to Server 2003 access denied I have a network share on a 2003 server that has permissions set for general access (full rights to everyone). I get an "access denied" message when accessing this share from a Server 2000 machine even though I am signed on as a Domain Controller and both machines are in the same domain. I can not even see the share using "net view" from the command line. Once I explicitly attach to the shage using "net use" I get the general access I want, but once this attachment is removed, it is back to "access denied". I have a service that needs to access this share and I don't want to have to explicitly attach to the share every time I need to reboot one of the servers. Is there a Security Setting in 2003 I am missing? Is there a programatic way to attach to the server that mimics "net use"? Tag: Ports usage Tag: 82685

    - Willing to PayPal a tech for help ! Here is the situation. I have 2 laptops. The one I am on is working. My previous one is screwed. I am willing to PayPal any tech who knows how to fix this problem. The Operating system (Windows XP) can not be recognized. The hard drive inside the laptop (which I can not even begin to figure out how to take out) is the only contents I wish to retrieve, rescue, save. I can get to the point of partitioning the computer through the "wwbmu" prompt but everything is written in German, which I could wing through it all but truthfully I don't know anything about partitioning without destroying the contents on my hard drive. I also have a Windows 98 bootup CD (in English) which is more or less asking me create a partition but if I do that will that destroy my hard drive contents or what? The options are : 1. Create partition 2. Delete partition 3. Select bootable partition Can I save my hard drive contents by repartitioning or what? The only Windows XP disc set that I have came with the laptop and it will completely restore my laptop to it's original condition wiping out all the contents on the hard drive. Anyway, I am willing to PayPal anyone who can rescue my hard drive any fee needed. Just please be some tech who knows what he's doing (lol). I have a cell phone where talking is free after 7pm Central so I can call you or if you have a cell phone you can call me. Or we can do it through AIM (Instant Message).

    - Running VB Scripts in Office 2003 Hi, I suspect a security issue is preventing a script from running in an Access 2003 form, but have not found any acknowledgement of this possibility in the Access group, so I thought I'd try asking here. Since we made some security changes (e.g. deleting the administrator account under which the file was originally created) an Access Script like the one below always fails. The security level on the .mdb file is set to low. No error messages appear other than my own MsgBox. Does Application.FileSearch requires any knd of security credentials? The reason I ask is because I recently found out that InfoPath in Office 2003 does not allow VB Scripts to be run without some security in place. SourceDir = "G:\test\" With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch .LookIn = SourceDir .SearchSubFolders = False .Filename = ".txt" ' also tried "*.txt" If .Execute() > 0 Then ' doesn't go past here even though files exist in G:\test MsgBox "Success ??"

    - ActiveX Security Does anyone know of some good articles or websites that I could use for material to prove to my institution that using ActiveX controls on ASP pages and client-side scripting is an outdated approach towards web application design? We have a web application at my institution that has a lot of sensitive information and it has, what I consider to be, a very antiquated architecture: It is using ASP with all ActiveX controls on the "web forms" and heavy client-side vb scripting. (For example, if you View Page Source you can see all the CreateObject code, login and password variable declares, etc.) I think we should rewrite the application in ASP.NET or J2EE.

    - Internet Pests There are several domains, "affiliatetarget.com", "e-researchgroup.com", "myinsiderdeals.com" among them that are doing all they can to screw up my getting things done on the Web. When I click on links, go back or whatever, they pop up with a marketing scam representing companies such as Target, Wal-Mart, Victorias Secret, Starbucks, etc. They want you to sign up for a $500 gift card. I don't know whether these are worms, trojans, a virus or what. I have a firewall installed and am about to install an anti-virus program but in the meantime cannot seem to keep out these domains. Is there any way to 1) get information on these domains and who owns them, 2) report these domains as internet abusers, and 3) get rid of this problem?

    - Server that came from a W2000 Domain and has joined a NT Domain Hi, I hope someone can help me, i'm having a huge fight with a W2000 server SP4 installed in french that was moved from a windows 2000 domain and is now joined to a NT server domain. The problem basically is that we can't install any security patch's, we always get a permissions denied error, by using the windows update or by downloading and only then installing the patch's. We don't speak french, but i think all the local policies are set to grant full permissions over the machine for the Domain admin or Local admin. However, untill now we are still facing the same problem. To anyone...could it be a Domain policy that was set on the 2000 Domain that for some reason is still afecting the machine?
