    - Failure Audits in Security Log I'm getting the following warning every 2 minutes in the security log on my W2000 DC. I'm pretty sure the warning is being generated by a connection on of my users is making to a remote server to access email for another company he works for. How can I get this warning to stop? I currently have GP set to audit account logon events pass/failure and audit logon events pass/failure (I'd like to keep these settings if possible). Here is the warning message being generated: Event Type: Failure Audit Event Source: Security Event Category: Account Logon Event ID: 676 Date: 5/18/2006 Time: 11:04:25 AM User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Computer: (SERVER NAME) Description: Authentication Ticket Request Failed: User Name: username@remotedomain.com Supplied Realm Name: OUR DOMAIN.COM Service Name: krbtgt/OUR DOMAIN.COM Ticket Options: 0x40810010 Failure Code: 0x6 Client Address: 192.168.221.17 Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84601

    - Remote User "Quarantine" and access control I was at a Microsoft seminar a year or two ago that covered laptop or remote user access security and how Windows Server and other Micorosoft technologies could be used to control remote user access to business LAN. They talked about being able to set up VPN access to LAN and being able to scan remote user laptop/desktop to verify whether it's patches and updates were up to date and if they were the remote user was allowed into LAN if if they were not up to date then the remote user was "quarantined" and not allowed access to the LAN until it was updated and then allowed into LAN. What is required to do this and is there any documentation on how to set this up? Thanks, Jose Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84600

    - Set DCOM Permissions via Command Line Hi all ... I'm wonderring if anyone has any idea about how to (or if possible) set DCOM permissions via command line? I'm trying to script some permissions set up for new server Win 2003 OS installs and haven't had much luck finding a possible solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    - "Run AS" but with restrictions Hi there, I am playing around with the "Run As" option for allowing my "limited users" access to applications that require privileges of an admin. Instead of giving them the actual Administrator password, ive created another admin "BF2" user so they can use those credentials. What I am trying to do is: Restrict the local user down to a couple applications that he can use the "run as" command on as the "BF2" user, but I can still be able to use the run as option on all applications as the "administrator" user (for when I need to run admin programs) Ill give you an example... Local User (with limited privs) called JoeBlog Administrator User used for running programs called BF2 And local administrator is Administrator. Ok, so JoeBlog wants to play Battlefield2 (for instance) but punkbuster requires the program be run with admin provileges, so Ive created a BF2 user and added it to the administrator group, and they can now run BattleField 2 as the BF2 user and all is good. I have disabled the ability to log in (to the desktop) on the BF2 user, but I would like to restrict the "Run As BF2 user" down to just the Battlefield executable and nothing else. But still be able to "Run As Administrator" on everything else (for my management). Does anyone know of a way to lock this down? Would it be something that needs to be set on JoeBlog's account or the BF2 account? I can disable the Run As command all together but then I lose the option to run Battlefield as an admin user...

    - IPsec Over Tunnel I am trying to encrypt my wireless traffic with IPsec. My configuration is as follows: OpenBSD 3.8 gateway (192.168.100.20) connected to Linksys accesspoint via crossover cable. Macintosh OS X 10.4 (192.168.100.200) AirPort Windows XP SP2 (192.168.100.120) Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG I am using isakmpd on the OpenBSD computer, racoon on OS X and ipseccmd on Windows. If I configure transport policies the setup works correctly. However, if I use tunnel, the Macintosh works correctly, but the Windows computer does not. Below are the ipseccmd commands I am using for Windows. Transport mode: ipseccmd -u ipseccmd -f 192.168.100.120=192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0 -n ESP[3DES,MD5]1800s -a cert:"C=US, S=Missouri, L=Saint Louis, O=Home LAN" -1s 3DES-SHA-2 -1k 1800s ipseccmd -f 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0=192.168.100.120 -n ESP[3DES,MD5]1800s -a cert:"C=US, S=Missouri, L=Saint Louis, O=Home LAN" -1s 3DES-SHA-2 -1k 1800s After executing these commands, I can ping 192.168.100.20. After several "Negotiating IP Security" messages, I receive replies from the remote computer. I can ping from the OpenBSD computer to the Windows computer as well. Tunnel mode: ipseccmd -u ipseccmd -f 192.168.100.120=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -t 192.168.100.20 -n ESP[3DES,SHA]1800s -a cert:"C=US, S=Missouri, L=Saint Louis, O=Home LAN" -1s 3DES-SHA-2 -1k 1800s ipseccmd -f 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0=192.168.100.120 -t 192.168.100.120 -n ESP[3DES,SHA]1800s -a cert:"C=US, S=Missouri, L=Saint Louis, O=Home LAN" -1s 3DES-SHA-2 -1k 1800s After executing these commands and pinging 192.168.100.20 I receive several "Negotiating IP Security" messages again. However, instead of receiving replies, I now get "Request timed out". If I examine the Oakley.log file, I can see that SA is successfuly netotiated. I would expect that if firewalls or some other ICMP block was in place, that it would affect both transport and tunnel mode. Any suggestions? thanks, Michael Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84562

    - Printers dont assign after GPO Security changes... Hi guys, Got a bit of a complicated one so put your thinking caps on. We've gone through recently and tightened down our Win2k3 domain (with only WinXP clients) using Group Policy. Since we have made some changes, most of which are recommended or required, clients are no longer having their printers mapped via logon script. These are the Security GPO changes made: - Domain controller: LDAP server signing requirements (Require signing ) - Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (always) (Enabled) - Domain member: Require strong (Windows 2000 or later) session key (Enabled) - Network access: Allow anonymous SID/Name translation (Disabled) - Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts (Enabled) - Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares (Enabled) - Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users (Disabled) As for the printers users were getting their access via the EVERYONE group. I have confirmed that as far as the Printer groups go, everyone is a member of their associated groups. The logon script says that if you are a member of that group, then map that specific printer. Since the groups arent assigned to the printers, they were naturally getting their access (previously) via the EVERYONE group. Since the above security changes, users seem to have lost their access to the EVERYONE group and the logon script is no longer installing the printers for them. I can confirm that the logon script has not changed since no one here knows VB :o) It was definitely one of the above changes. Can anyone think of which one?

    - Microsoft Certification Authority Hi All, Just curious about something in the Microsoft Certification authority; I have a number of issued certificates that are expired or are nearing expiration, is it possible to renew the issued certificates (and how do i go about doing this? Any good articles/walkthroughs?). What I want to avoid is having to reissue the certificates to each of the clients. Is this possible? or will I have to generate new certificates and distribute them to my end users again? TIA J Brown Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84552

    - Security feature in Microsoft's new Windows (Vista) could drive users nuts "SEATTLE - An annoying surprise awaits 2 million consumers expected to enthusiastically step forward in the next few weeks to help Microsoft test its new Windows Vista PC operating system. Volunteers will test Vista Beta 2, a near-final version of the much-hyped upgrade of Windows. The testing is the last step leading up to Vista's broad consumer release, scheduled for January. Beta 2 testers can expect to encounter an obtrusive security feature, called User Account Control (UAC). Designed to prevent intruders from performing harmful tasks, the feature grays out the computer screen, then prods you to confirm that you really want to do certain functions. In early test versions, the queries crop up so often that they interrupt routine tasks, such as changing the time clock or deleting shortcuts. And UAC sometimes triggers an endless loop of dialogue boxes that can be curtailed only by rebooting, says Paul Thurrott, news editor of Windows IT Pro magazine." http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2006-05-15-vista-security_x.htm?csp=34 -- Imhotep Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84526

    - SBS FTP service getting slammed. We have a low IT budget. I am using FTP to backup remote computers. Someone discovered my FTP service was opened and has been hitting me with 10's of thousands break-in attempts. Usually trying the administrator user. They will probably not figure out the user name, because I have changed the admin username, but it is almost everyday. Yesterday they tried the username of "Julian" Go figure. The police here won't do anything. Neither will my ISP. Any ideas? Thanks! Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84512

    - File permissions screwed up Hello all, I copied a data structure from folder on my server to another, using the xcopy /t command. Example "xcopy /t c:\data c:\share". Now it seems that whenever I try to assign permissions to those folders (c:\share), it tells me "access is denied". I'm trying to assign 3 different user groups access to the folder. 2 user groups need Full Access, the last group is read-only. As long as I'm the administrator on the server, I can create a file within the folder. Once I go to the workstation, no joy. Even if I sign on as Administrator, I can't create a file on that directory. It's like it killed all network access to the folder. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...

    - Remote Windows User List Disclosure Vulnerability Hi everybody, We use a tool that audit our servers in order to avoid vulnerabilities.I=B4ve a DC w2003 with the following vulnerability: Remote Windows User List Disclosure Vulnerability. That means that a null session connection to the IPC$ share was successful and NetBIOS access can be obtained with any authenticated account on that host. Therefore unauthorized users can steal the remote user list. This kind of attack is commonly exploited by users with weak passwords, such as the GUEST account. Microsoft has published this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=3Dkb;en-us;246261 The values for w2000 and w2003 are different. I=B4ve read that in w2003 in order to restrict anonymous you can only use 0 for disable and 1 for enable it. Meanwhile, in windows 2000 you have one more possible value, 2. Anyway, I=B4ve try to set it to 1 or 2 without success. I=B4ve also disabled the posibility of enumerate sam accounts and shares trought the domain controller security policy. After restarting the server I obtain again the vulnerability in that server. Any idea about this issue? Your help would be much appreciated, Regards.

    - netstat showing too many connections LISTENING When I run "netstat -a" on my server, it shows lots of open connections (like EM_SVR1.co_name.com:0) in the LISTENING state. These connections seem to stay open, and keeps increasing over time, and the application soon fails because it cannot get any more ports! After a couple of days, I have pages and pages of this listing. Just typing netstat or using gui tools such as tcpview does not show all these connections. I need to figure out how to make sure these connections eventually go away, and the application does not fail. The PID of these connections show that it is my application that owns/initiated the connections. Any help or pointers is greatly appreciated.

    - Take Ownership of Multiple files at once Hello- We just installed a new server and on the old server we had a directory of photos that only two users had access to, myself (admin) and our lab tech. These permissions were assigned via NTFS. Now that I have put the drive in the new server it is not allowing me to do anything with the files as no one on this local computer has any security permissions for it. I can manually take ownership of folders and files with the admin rights I have on the server but there are over 450 photos in there and it would seem rediculous to have to do them individually. I have gone into the security/advanced tab of the parent folder and trield clicking the check box to "Replace permissions entries on all child objercts with entries shown here that apply to child objects" but it wont let me because there are no rights to the photos so it says access is denied. Is there any way I can take ownership of all of those files all at once in order to reassign proper permissions? I tried the obvious of selecting them all and going to the security tab but that is not available for muliple selected objects it states. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

    - Exchange/Cisco VPN client failing I have a WinXP Pro w/Outlook 2003 laptop trying to connect through a Cisco VPN 4.0.5 to the Exchange server. This connection is initiated via a D-link wireless access point. I seem to be having trouble resolving DNS, getting through the firewall, or authenticating to the Exchange server. Outlook gets stuck in "trying to connect". It only seems to be problematic from this one location, so perhaps it's a firewall port I'm missing...although I've followed all D-link instructions for enabling this Cisco client at http://support.dlink.com/SupportFAQ/default.asp?model=DI%2D624 Closest I've come to solving this is using the following KB article tells me that MS04-11 update may create this problem, but I can't uninstall it as it appears to have come with SP2 or another roll-up.

    - Enabling the administrator to have access to redirected folders I'm having trouble with Article ID: 288991 "Enabling the administrator to have access to redirected folders" The directions work just fine for users that have never had their folders redirected, but the process generally fails for users that have had their folders previously redirected. For existing redirected folders, I change the GPO to send the folders back to the users local profile (and Remote User Profile). I then take ownership (as an Administrator) of the old redirected folder and delete it at the %username% folder. I then change the users GPO back to folder redirection and the folders do move as I would expect. The problem however still remains in that I as an Administrator still can't access the redirected folders. On a rare occasion, this process does work for prior redirected folders but I still have several users that it does not work on. When it does work, it usually requires a few days between sending the folders back to the local and then redirecting them back to the redirected folder. I've tried gpudate on the server and workstation and even shut everything down several times, but I still have the same problem. Any ideas what might be wrong?

    - Microsoft patches Windows, Exchange flaws... "Microsoft released fixes on Tuesday for two sets of flaws in its Windows operating system and another two vulnerabilities in the software giant's Exchange mail server, security issues which could allow a worm to propagate between vulnerable systems, security experts warned. A critically-ranked patch addresses two flaws in Windows that affect the Macromedia Flash player from Adobe, a plugin that ships with Microsoft's Internet Explorer 6 browser, and could allow remote code execution, the software giant said in its bulletin. The other patch, which is rated moderate for severity, fixes two flaws in the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) that could be used to cause a denial-of-service, the software giant stated." http://www.securityfocus.com/brief/207?ref=rss Imhotep Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84293

    - McAfee Firewall and network Hi. Configuration: wall socket from cable company, from wall socket to modem a connection by cable. From modem cable to router, in the same room. Receiving computer with wireless adapter is in different room. No other PC's or networked devices are connected. I was advised by McAfee that I should choose for the firewall for the option: "trust home network". (ok, not perfect translation, because the software is in Dutch). But if I do that, will that not make me less safe ? I should also add that the router has a built-in firewall, but an imperfect one. Not port everything is stealthed (as recommended on www.grc.com, Zonealarm firewall is recommended on that site for it's unique stealth capabilities (as opposed to just keep a port open or closed)). But I can't use Zonealarm because it affects my wireless connection in a bad way and because basically the hardware and/or software of my ISP doesn't like Zonealarm. I'd also like to add that I use WPA-PSK for communication between my router and my PC. Also, I have given the router a non-standard login and and complicated passport. But my main question is: should I have the McAfee firewall trust the "home network" or am I better off not doing that. An explanation why would help :) Thanks.

Staff accounts should be allowed to access VPN and wireless. Both Student and Staff Active Directory accounts have the option "Dial-in" tab set to "Allow". Problem: Since that option "Allow" is enabled, students could install and launch VPN client and get connected thru VPN. I don't want that. Question: What would be the best way to create a policy to allow the access to wireless, not VPN ?

    - AcquireCredentials problem running inside iis I have a website in IIS which has been configured to run with Windows Authentication and I have <identity impersonate="true" /> in my web.config. I know that my configuration works correctly as when I look at the identity under which the thread is running I can see that it is the user's account. My aim is to generate a security token to authenticate the user against one of our single-sign-on(SSO) servers(written in-house). I am using the SSPI samples (Microsoft Security SSPI Classes) which I downloaded from your website to generate tokens in order to perform an sspi authentication with our SSO server. The problem I have is that when a user logs on although the thread in iis seems to run under the user's account, the SSPI call seems to generate credentials for 'anonymous user'. When I log on from the machine where iis is running (and I am the interactive user), the token is generated with my details. Which is the correct behaviour. When I log on from another machine where I am the interactive user ( and iis is still running on the original machine where I am the interactive user ) the token seems to be generated for 'anonymous user'. Is there a way I can get the call to AcquireCredentials and subsequently to InitializeSecurityContext to yield a token relating to the currently logged on user. This is the signature for acquireCredentials: SECURITY_STATUS sResult = AcquireCredentialsHandle( NULL, // [in] name of principal. NULL = principal of current security context pszPackageName, // [in] name of package fCredentialUse, // [in] flags indicating use. pszLogonID, // [in] pointer to logon identifier. NULL = we're not specifying the id of another logon session NULL, // [in] package-specific data. NULL = default credentials for security package NULL, // [in] pointer to GetKey function. NULL = we're not using a callback to retrieve the credentials NULL, // [in] value to pass to GetKey this->credentialHandle, // [out] credential handle (this must be already allocated) &tsExpiry // [out] lifetime of the returned credentials ); Initially (for the above described symptoms), instead of pszlogonid there was a null being passed in. I have tried to pass in an SID and even the logoin session id (luid) but this causes the function to return -2146893050 which i'm pretty sure is SEC_E_NOT_OWNER. I get this error now, on the iis machine as well as the remote machine. Is there something i am missing here? Can anyone help? Who shot J.R? I hope Keith Brown is reading im sure he'd sort this out in a flash. Tag: Windows Defender (Beta 2): Definitions Update Problem Tag: 84284

Hi,

I am using Windows Defender (Beta 2) and when I open it I see following
message on home screen.

â??Your definitions havenâ??t been updated in 16 days. Definitions allow Windows
Defender to detect the latest harmful or unwanted software and prevent it
from running on your computer.â??

There is a button in front of message â??Check Nowâ?? and I always click it. The
software connects to Microsoft site and after some time displays that the
definitions are updated. But I keep getting the same message.

I am facing this for last 3 days and the day count started with 14.

Kindly suggest a solution

Thanks and Regards
