    - Question about pkiview.msc Root Certificate Expiring Greetings all, Have a question about Pkiview.msc - but first the setup details. Win2K3 standard - Stand-Alone root CA (Certificate lifetime 12 years) Win2K3 Enterprise - Enterprise subordinate CA/Issuing CA (Certificate lifetime 6 years) CRL and AIA informatinos are first published to a http site and then ldap for clients. When I run pkiview on the Issuing CA it shows a warning on the root ca. After selecting the root ca in pkiview.msc it says: CA Certificate - status - Expiring AIA location #1 (http) - status - Expiring AIA location #2 (ldap) - status - Expiring If I click on any of the links and open the root ca certificates it says that the validity is 30 years from now. Any who know if this is normal behavour for pkiview.msc and that I can ignore this or if I should trouble shoot on it? And if so, any suggestions of what to look for? On google I havn't found much about it, except a post which said that the status of expiring was ok. Thanks in advance, Benjamin Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96701

    - Conflicting IAS remote access policies problem This concerns a IAS RADIUS server. I have a pre-existing IAS remote access policy that authenticates all wireless users and allows them to connect to my companies wireless network. I am a member of this group. I have created a second policy to allow exec priviledge logins to my Cisco routers. I set the policy to allow anyone who is a member of the Domain Admins group this right. I am a member of this group as well. When the wireless policy is listed first, and I attempt to login to my Cisco router, I get an "IAS_INVALID_AUTH_TYPE" error in my IAS log, but I can connect to my wireless network just fine. If I reverse the order of the policies, I can log in to the Cisco router just fine, but then I get the "IAS_INVALID_AUTH_TYPE" error when I connect to my wireless network. The logs also show that when the login is failing on the first policy, it does not fall through to the second policy. Is there any way around this? I want to stay in both the wireless users and the Domain Admins groups; can I configure IAS to go down my list of policies until I either reach one that accepts my login, or I'm rejected by all policies? Thanks. Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96688

When running them from the share (\\server\share\file.exe), I get a permissions error that reads "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." It does run however when I execute it from explorer using the drive (D:\folder\file.exe), or using the unc path from another computer. I am logging in as the domain admin.

    - detecting lame passwords I know that the standard disclaimers apply: running certain security auditing tools without permission may be criminally prosecutable, and at least grounds for termination. With that happy thought in mind, what tools would you recommend for finding who has a weak password? I've explained that Winter07 is not a good password, but since Windows will accept it, I think that some kind of auditing is my next prudent step. Recommended products for preventing this in the first place are welcome as well. But presenting a user with their password as evidence that they chose a weak password seems to be hard to argue with. My assumption is that such a tool would run under the admin account, and that the tool itself should secured to said account. ________ Greg Stigers, MCSA remember to vote for the answers you like Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96653

    - Grant Access to Different Profiles Our company has a stand a long laptop - No domain - Its primary function is to connect using IE to our four local-internal Webcam servers (Windows XP) for surveillance purposes. We had two kind of users logging into the computer. Administrator and security are the names for the two user's profiles. The computer has access to the Internet, MS Office, Windows games, etc. Our goal is to grant the Administrator full access to all of the resources available into the computer. The second user profile "Security" should ONLY have access to the IE to view the WEBCAM servers (No access to the Internet or any other software). If you have any suggestions on how to accomplish this will be very appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help and assistance with this task! Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96649

Just send an email to me at: dcr618@msn.com (5) SAMPLE OS/EH BILL This bill was written in conjunction with activist Mary Ann Stratton - www.controlledamerica.com Those that are in contact with legislators, feel free to send this along with other information they may request. ORGANIZED STALKING AND DIRECTED ENERGY WEAPONS HARASSMENT BILL A bill to provide protections to individuals who are being harassed,stalked, harmed by surveillance, and assaulted; as well as protections to keep individuals from becoming human research subjects, tortured, and killed by electronic frequency devices, directed energy devices, implants, and directed energy weapons. Section 1. Short Title This bill may be cited as the "Organized Stalking and Directed Energy Devices and Weapons Bill " Section 2. Findings and Purpose A) Findings 1) The constitution guarantees the right of the people to be secure in their person. The Declaration of Independence asserts as self-evident that all men have certain inalienable rights and that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. 2) As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis wrote in 1928, "the framers of the Constitution sought "to protect Americans in their beliefs, their thoughts, their emotions, and their sensations." It is for this reason that they established, as against the government, the right to be let alone as "the most comprehensive of rights and the right most valued by civilized men." 3) The first principle of the Nuremberg Code states that with respect to human research, the voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. The Nuremberg Code further asserts that such consent must be competent, informed, and comprehending. 4) There are current regulations implementing the obligations of the United States to adhere to Article 3 of the United Nations Convention Against Torture and other Forms of Cruel, Inhumane or Degrading Treatment including all terms that are Subject to any reservations, understandings, declarations, and provisions contained in the United States Senate resolution of ratification of the Convention. B) Purpose To establish regulations and penalties for those who use any type of electronic frequency devices, directed energy devices, implants, surveillance technology, and directed energy weapon to purposefully cause any of the following: stalking, harassing, mental or physical harm, injury, harmful surveillance, torture, diseases, and death to any United States citizen. Section 3. Organized Stalking If two or more persons willfully, maliciously, and repeatedly follow or willfully and maliciously harass another person and who make a credible threat with the intent to place that person in reasonable fear for his or her safety, or the safety of his or her immediate family, they are guilty of the crime of organized stalking, punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for not more than one year, or by not more than one thousand dollars ($ 1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment, or by imprisonment in a federal prison. If two or more persons violate subdivision (a) when there is a temporary restraining order, injunction, or any other court order in effect prohibiting the behavior described in subdivision (a) against the same party, they shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for two, three, or four years. For the purposes of this section, "harass" means engages in a knowing and willful course of conduct directed at a specific person that seriously alarms, annoys, torments, or terrorizes the person, or damages his personal property or possessions and that serves no legitimate purpose. * * * For the purposes of this section, "course of conduct" means two or more acts occurring over a period of time, however short, evidencing a continuity of purpose. Constitutionally protected activity is not included within the meaning of "course of conduct."

It is not necessary to prove that the defendant had the intent to actually carry out the threat. The present incarceration of a person making the threat shall not be a bar to prosecution under this section. Constitutionally protected activity is not included within the meaning of "credible threat." For purposes of this section, the term "electronic communication device" includes, but is not limited to, telephones, cellular phones, computers, video recorders, fax machines, pagers or synthetic telepathy devices. The sentencing court also shall consider issuing an order restraining the defendant from any contact with the victim, that may be valid for up to 10 years, as determined by the court. It is the intent of the Legislature that the length of any restraining order be based upon the seriousness of the facts before the court, the probability of future violations, and the safety of the victim and his or her immediate family. For purposes of this section, "immediate family" means any spouse,parent, child, any person related by consanguinity or affinity within the second degree, or any other person who regularly resides in the household, or who, within the prior six months, regularly resided in the household.

For the purposes of this section, "immediate family" means any spouse,whether by marriage or not, parent, child, any person related by consanguinity or affinity within the second degree, or any other person who regularly resides in the household, or who, within the prior six months, regularly resided in the household.

    - Certsrv on a remote server Everyone, I have an environment that uses a Stand-alone CA to issue certificates to remote users from a public web site using web enrollment. This cert is used for authentication for another web site. Right now I have a server farm behind load balancers, but only one of them is configured as CA with the web-enrollment piece (certsrv). As you can imagine, this acts as a single point of failure and means that we can't use the load balancers for this; we have to always go to the single server. I would like to put copies of Certsrv on the other web servers so that I could balance these, but I am concerned with the communication between web enrollment and the CA and what the configuration steps would be. I am trying to avoid the overhead of configuring subordinates on the other web servers and issuing locally.

    - redundant wan We have two connections to the internet (1 T1 and 1 DSL) setup for redundancy purposes on a router with 2 wan ports. These connections both have their own pool of IP addresses. Our name resolution is setup to point to IP addresses bound to the T1. We recently had a situation where our T1 went down and we had to disable that WAN port on our router until it was available again. In this process we found that we needed to setup a second ftp subdomain (ftp2.mydomain.com) and tell our customers to use that name. My question is how can we make it so that we don't have to notify our customers to use the other subdomain should this happen again without having to make dns changes. In other words, if ftp.mydomain.com is bound to our T1 on 65.1.1.1 and out T1 goes down, what would we need to do to make sure ftp.mydomain.com goes through our DSL line bound to 64.1.1.1 (IP addresses are not real, just examples). Would we need to change our topology, or is there a way to set a secondary IP or route for our dns names? Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks, Marc Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96627

    - Active Directory and DMZ I recently faced a situation where a sharepoint was part of a domain inside a DMZ. There was a separate domain, inside the corporate network. The element I was concerned with was the following : the DMZ domain trusted the internal domain and the sharepoint allowed users from the inside to access some ressources. My assumption was that this was a potential security breach since multiples ports needed to be open between the inside and the DMZ, and that this architecture could allow an attacker to eventualy get to the inside from the DMZ. I am just curious about what would be the 'best practices' regarding that situation. Of course you can have just two domains, but obviously the people on the corporate network need to share ressources with partners outside. What is the recommended way to deal with such a situation ? Is there any safe way of allowing internal users to simply authenticate on such a shared ressource with the outside ? Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96626

    - Recent Flaw with some ActiveX controls (Facebook, Yahoo) - how is it I'm aware of the recently alerted flaw in the image uploder ActiveX control used by some popular social networking sites. But I haven't found technical details to explain where the risk actually lies... Is it in the Uploader talking to a malicious download application or is it the Uploader opening a malicious image file. Or is there a different attack vector? I don't suppose Facebook or MySpace would intentioanlly post a malicous download element to the Uploader - although someone could spoof one of these sites to get at an unsuspecting user. Or if it is crafted image files that we are worried about then as long as users stick to pictures which they know to be ok (such a photos they've taken themselves) then surely the risk is quite low. I'm guessing that the risk is related to the first mentioned above in that a malicious site could invoke the ActiveX control and then pass it crafted information- is that right?

    - Help with 'web bugs' requested. (If you don't know what web bugs are, see eff.org or elsewhere) Web bugs, also called web beacons, and by other names, are a non-cookie, non-IP related way to track people on the internet. In a way, it has made protection against cookies almost obsolete. I've read that some ad-blocking programs would block some web bugs, but I'm looking for something that blocks, detects and is able to scan for web bugs (or if that's too much, just part of that). I use IE 7. (No Firefox !) The issue is really privacy. Seeing ads can be annoying, but my real issue is preserving some privacy by not allowing myself to be tracked wherever I go on the internet. Any programs, means to achieve this ? I suppose proxies or anonymizer services might help, but they have their own disadvantadges. Suggestions ? Too bad that most people don't know about 'web bugs'.

    - Modifying permissions with XCACLS.vbs Hello, I have a question about running XCACLS.vbs. I'm trying to change folder permissions but I'm not using the built-in security groups - I want to use domain groups; specifically domain admins and domain users. I read online that if one uses SID# in place if a group name then that should work. I call XCACLS. from a batch file. A sample of my existing (and currently working as expected) file looks like this: cscript xcacls.vbs "C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe" /G Administrators:F cscript xcacls.vbs "C:\WINDOWS\regedit.exe" /E /G SYSTEM:F Additionally, I read that the domain SID can be found in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion \ProfileList. I also read the SIDs for domain admins and domain users are: SID: S-1-5-domain-512 Name: Domain Admins SID: S-1-5-domain-513 Name: Domain Users So, armed with this information I took the two lines above and tried to do this: cscript xcacls.vbs "C:\Temp" /G SID#S-1-5-21-131504274-120818031-269197707-1108-512:F cscript xcacls.vbs "C:\Temp" /E /G SID#S-1-5-21-131504274-120818031-269197707-1108-513:F It didn't work. While I didn't get a script engine error or anything, when I checked the permissions on that folder, all the entries were gone - it was a blank display. How can I modify the permissions to use domain admins and users? Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks! Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96604

    - PLEASE help me determine if I've got issues; I've done everything I know how to do! This is long, but I want to give as much info and what I've done to try and tackle this myself as possible. I really need some help at this point, so I hope someone out there has the time and can provide some much needed and much appreciated assistance/advice, etc. I work at a pretty low-tech place with 8 PC's, all running XP, using comcast's cable internet service, with file sharing set up so all users can access a shared folder on one of the PC's. No user or group policies are set up. All PC's use TrendMicro's pay service, we havy a Linksys router, and I periodically run Spybot and a few other favorite virus/trojan/bad stuff finders on all the PCS' (but TrenMicro is the only thing running 24/7). There's also one NetGear wireless access point for an in-office laptop (it requires a web key to log into the network) We use a webmail software located on our dedicated server at a hosting company (where our website is) to do email; the web server at the hosting company is also the email server. Currently it's using SmarterMail (which is apprently a pretty popular partnered email software with hosting companies). So users use a web browser to log into their email, which is housed on the dedicated server. We've had some emails sent to yahoo email addreses come back with a rejection notice due to yahoo user complaints about spam (not the users the email was sent to, just users in general, apparnetly), and we've also had undeliverable mail come back looking as if we sent it but we know we didn't (there's spammy stuff in it). Also, Comcast recently disallowed all outgoing traffic from our public IP (the router) that was looking for port 25, because they said they saw a lot of spammy-looking traffic leaving our router as well. Since it seemed like we had a real issue going on, I followed all the directions SmarterMail has to make sure SMTP requires authentication, etc., all the steps to minimize possible hijacking and whatever. I used a few of these online websites where you put in the IP address of the mail server and it sees if it looks like an open relay, and they all reported negative. I had everyone change their passwords to relatively strong ones for logging in t our mail server. The problem seemed to remain. Then I turned on the outgoing log on the Linksys router. About every ten seconds I see a couple outgoing packets going to the same IP but with a different last number, then after about ten of those it goes to another series of IP's with differnet last number. For instance, I'd see outgoing to: 64.86.95.6 64.86.95.7 64.86.95.8 64.86.95.27 64.86.95.27 64.86.95.10 64.86.95.26 64.86.95.10 64.86.95.10 then there are bunch that are ("myserver" used instead of my actual web server) smtp.myserver.com smtp.myserver.com smtp.myserver.com Some of these come from my own box's internal local IP, some come from the other internal local IP's. So, unless these are legitimate (like Windows update doing checks, trend micro doing checks, etc.), it appears I actually DO have something sending out IP traffic from inside. I looked up some of these IP's, and the most numerous batch of outging IP's (starting with 64.86.95) show up as belonging to: Teleglobe Inc. TELEGLOBE (NET-64-86-0-0-1) 64.86.0.0 - 64.86.255.255 Akamai Technologies AKAMAI-TGB (NET-64-86-95-0-1) 64.86.95.0 - 64.86.95.255 I found one (and one only) reference to this IP and this company on the web, where someone else was wondering about it, and it seemed like the assumption was it was a place doing stuff for Microsoft's Windows update. But when I turn off update, I still these outgoing traffic items in the Linksys log. I feel as if I've done everyhting I can and/or know how to do, so can anyone out there tell me a good solid way to see if I have some kind of SpamBot on our side of the router, or if someone has hacked our email server externally? The problem's getting worse, it seems, and I don't know what I can do when none of the popular security softwares find anything, but comcast and yahoo and our inbox full of undeliverablre messages looking like they were sent by us are pointing to us having a serious issue. Please help, we rely on our ability to send emails to subscribers, and they're getting rejected due to "user complaints", and we can't afford to be blacklisted (and yes, we only send to subscribers, we follow all te opt-in and opt-out stuff, and are very consciensious about keeping our mailing list clean.

    - requesting a certificate in Vista. Hi there, When requesting a certificate in Vista, if you choose to create a custom request (not going to use a template) and go to the "details" area, there are different areas to go through. The first is Subject. For subject name and alternative name, there are alot of choices. Is what you pick influenced by what the policy and CPS of the receiving CA says it needs from you? Meaning, the CA's policies dictate what you should pick in order to get a certificate from that CA. And all CAs can differ? Same thing for the Extensions tab? Thanks!

    - certificate import Wizard on Vista not working: I have Vista client PCs in a workgroup. I am logged into them as Administrator. When I try to import a certificate by doubleclicking on the CA certificate I want to import (I put it on the desktop or the C drive or whereever) and using the import Wizard, the import says it is successful but does not actually do anything. The same thing happens if I try to import any certificate from the web enrollment website of the CA (CA is standalone). I have noticed that when this does NOT work, in the "Completing the Certificate Import Wizard" window, it shows the Certificate Store Specified, the Content, and the File Name. THE FILENAME IS BLANK. The only time this does work is if I go to the certificate store, right click and start the Import Wizard from there. Then the import really does work and the File Name area actually shows the certificate file location (c:\users...\certifcate.cer) Anyone else run into this? Is there something I need to do in Vista to make this work right? Thanks! Kristin Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96577

    - ACL To Create and Modify Only New Files? What ACL on NTFS will give a group Read-Only access to files currently in the folder, but the ability to create and modify and delete new files in the folder? I have a badly behaved program that wants to write its TEMP files into its program installation folder. I would like to avoid the more permission Modify permission to the users of the application on all files in the folder including the application's binaries. One solution appears to be to give files currently in the folder the desired ACL and then break inheritance. Then give Modify access to the folder and all children. That isn't my first choice since later updates to the application will probably install new binaries, and this approach leaves those installed with Modify access inherited from the folder. -- Will Tag: WSUS - how starting Tag: 96561

    - Computer Info Compromised? Hi: I have a friend who had some old letters of one of his kin in a .doc file in his My Documents folder in his computer. The letters were enough to have formed a book about the 1800's written by this kin. He Googled the letters info and found some data applicable these letters which he has never shared with anyone. Also the .doc file string is exactly as that in his computer. In fact, he has found a copy of these letters for sale on the internet and the seller appears to be from the same area of the state where he lives if not the same city. His name is referenced in as the author of these letters. So my question is how did someone acquire this data from his computer, as apparently his computer has been compromised. It would appear to me that it had to happen in one or two scenario's. First someone somehow accessed his computer through the internet or second when he had taken his computer to a shop for repair. Since it appears that the seller is from the same area of state as he is, then my first inclination would be that this info was taken from his computer during a repair. I just really have don't have the expertise in this area to try and make a good determination. If anyone has any comments, suggestions, and/or recommendations as to how all this could have happened I would be most appreciative to read them.

When the computer is outside of a domain, a user can lock the computer and a smartcard placed on an attached reader is ignored. If the machine joins a domain, when a user locks the computer, a smartcard placed on the smartcard reader will initiate an attempt to logon with that smartcard. I dont want that to happen. I dont want to use the smartcard for logging on. The problem occurs even if the user is logging on with a local username. I want to be able to access the smartcard from my software while the machine is locked. When I attempt to program the card with the logon message displayed, I cant get access to the smartcard and it appears to break the logon procedure as well. The machine constantly displays "The card supplied requires drivers that are not present on the system. Try another card". Once in this condition where I attempted to access the card from my software, removing the card does nothing, the message is constantly re-displayed, there appears to be no out for this problem other than shutting down the computer. I've changed the local policy to not require a smartcard. That did not help. There is no defintion within the group policy for this option, so my local policy should still be in effect.
