    - How to Take Back Control of Filetype Associations Here is a new one (for me): on one machine a virus/trojan has changed file associations to point at itself to re-infect the machine each time a known filetype is invoked. The problem is that the virus also locked out the ability for local administrator to even view what those associations are, probably by changing the DACL. How do I take back control and view the associations? -- Will Tag: How to perform FULL CA backup Tag: 91637

    - Complex Security Hi, I have a client that just install a accounting software, and everybody in the company have to use it but the manager wants to block access to the datafiles that are .DBF and could be open with excel which is largely used in the office, so i managed to block access to the data folders and I created a special user to access the software and give it the rights to the folders, I also created an invisible share to map a drive because the software needs a mapped drive to work. Some people have windows 2000 and everybody else have XP pro, I started testing with 2000 and with the option "run as a different user" in the icon of the shortcut it works, it asks for the username, password and domain of the different user, but today when I started testing with Windows XP, I got the error message "The system cannot find the path specified" I found out that with windows XP as opposed to windows 2000 uses the current session credential to connect to the map drive, is ther a way to avoid that?

    - Having issues printing from C:\WINNT\TEMP Hi, I'm no network admin but this one is hard to get for me. A lot of computer Windows 2000 SP4 clients when printing from Outlook or Internet are getting blank pages. Now I know that with administrator rights or by adding Domain Users write access on the C:\WINN\Temp folder the problem is solved. However I don't think this is standard behavior to add Domain Users on that folder and we all know that making users part of the admin group is a security issue. This is what the Default Permissions look like on all computers including the ones having the issues. One last note to have is that we did change the Windows Env. variable TEMP value to point to C:\TEMP instead of C:\WINNT\TEMP. This allows a application to run without needing admin rights.

    - Windows XP certificate lost? Hello, I am running Windows XP with all updates. I have 2 disks: C: with the opetational system D: with personal data Some files at D: are encrypted with the NTFS system Yesterday I setup a certificate for Acrobat professional 7 and, by accident, deleted an existing certificate (digital ID) using the Acrobat "Digital ID" management tool (under the menus Advanced -> Security settings -> Digital IDs)... Well... the deleted certificate was not from Acrobat, but from the Windows XP and now I am unable to access the encrypted files. Testing I found Windows XP maybe created a new certificate for encrypt/ decrypt files (and other functions need certificate). I am not sure if the certificate was deleted or only removed from certificates list. Maybe is possible find the disk location of the certificates files and restore it, but I have no idea where the certificates are located in the disk. Some one can help me with this problem? Thank you very much, Sukhoi Tag: How to perform FULL CA backup Tag: 91625

    - Shares, Named Pipes, and Registry for Anonymous Remote Access I have a trojan I am fighting that replicates by establishing a null connection to IPC$ on any member server that has File & Printer Sharing enabled. It then repeatedly tries to invoke one of several buffer overloads in order to execute code in the SYSTEM context of the targeted machine. I would like to know how can I safely prevent null connections on IPC$. I have all five of the enable/disable settings in GPO security set that forbid anonymous access. Setting those to forbid anonymous is NOT preventing the trojan from successfully establishing the null connection. I can see this quite clearly by following its progress in a sniffer on the attacking machine, and then when the IPC$ connection is established, on the Windows 2003 DC I quite clearly get an eventviewer message that shows ANONYMOUS CONNECTION, and the IP of the eventviewer message matches the attacker's IP. Group Policy for Windows XP/2003 contains the following Security Settings (these names are approximate): Named Pipes that can be accessed anonymously Remote access registry paths Remote access registry paths and subpaths Shares that can be accessed anonymously I have the following questions regarding the above: 1) For a domain controller, is it required that any of these be enabled, and what is the minimum subset of entities that must be exposed? 2) For a member server, same question 3) For Windows 2000 DCs, are most of these just enabled by default and you cannot change the specific settings? 4) When you deselect the checkbox on this group policy, and simply fail to define any entities, then what are the defaults that will be in effect? When I ran RSOP.MSC on one Windows 2003 DC, it had none of these defined even through its local policy and GPO did not select checkboxes for any of these. If the lack of any settings in RSOP.MSC means that nothing is being allowed for anonymous access, then would I get the same result by enabling the checkbox, and simply forcing the list of each GPO setting above to be empty? I'm not clear on what steps if any I should take here to absolutely be sure that there are no anonymous connections allowed to the member server / DC. Any insights on this are appreciated. -- Will Tag: How to perform FULL CA backup Tag: 91608

    - Password Changes remotely thru VPN I have remote employees who connect to our network on a daily basis using VPN. All the workstations that they use are members of our domain. All users are domain users and authenicate against our DC's. We currently have a password policy that requires users to change their password every 90 days. I can always tell when that time frame comes up because at least half of my remote users call stating that they can't connect. Is it possible to prompt a user who is authenicating to the domain to be prompted that their password is going to expire or has expired. What is the best practice that others use to control this in regards to remote users. Thanks Tag: How to perform FULL CA backup Tag: 91599

    - CERTSRV_DCOM_ACCESS Group missing - suggested KB fix not working 4 Dear all, Have just implemented a W2003 pki for our 3 domain forest, the issuing CA is a w2003 enterprise box, not a dc but installed as part of one of the child domains in the forest under an enterprise admins account. pkiview tells me everything is fine, and domain controllers are auto-enrolling just fine within the child domain hosting the CA, outside in the other child domains they aren't but thats an issue with Cert Publishers membership that i am confident i can resolve by changing the scope of the groups. The problem i have is referenced in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927066 but the fix does not work in our situation. The fix i am referring to is to run certutil -setreg SetupStatus -SETUP_DCOM_SECURITY_UPDATED_FLAG if the CERTSRV_DCOM_ACCESS group is missing from the users container in the ad. Which it is. Running this generates no errors, but does not create the group.... I feel i should also mention that our root domain within the forest was upgraded from w2000 to 2003, but due to an administrative oversight, the schema was updated to R2 before sp1 was applied to the schema master. Not sure if this is related. Essentially i need to have the group so i can add the relevant groups so my users are able to request certificates, at the moment only ent admins can, everyone else receives the following message The wizard cannot be started because of one or more of the following conditions: - There are no trusted certification authorities (CAs) available. - You do not have the permissions to request certificates from the available CAs. - The available CAs issue certificates for which you do not have permissions.

    - Require Info on EAP extension development for windows mobile Hi, We are developing an EAP module for the Windows Mobile 5.0 as per the documentation provided at the MSDN site for the EAP extension development. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa363504.aspx We succeeded in writing the whole EAP module. The whole EAP authentication goes through well with the AAA server(RADIUS) with the extension dll we wrote and we finally receive the outer EAP success, sent as part of the Access-Accept from RADIUS, which indicates the EAP authentication has succeeded. Now as per the documentation in MSDN, we are supposed to pass the MPPE-Send key and MPPE-Recv Key from the RasEapMakeMessage function using the pUserAttributes member of the pEapOutput structure in the final step. These keys are supposed to be used in the EAPOL module in the 4way handshake for the WPA MSK derivation. But its not much clear on how the pUserAttributes is to be filled with these keys. We filled in the pUserAttributes pointer from what we can make out from the following MSDN link in the Remarks section at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa363518.aspx . and another section that appears in the EAP Host documentation for Windows Vista and XP on how MPPE keys are to be handled at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa363636.aspx, which we think might also be relevant for the EAP extension development. But they don't seem to work. We tried a lot of combinations but nothing seems to work. When we sniffed/traced on Access Point's logs the supplicant doesn't seem to respond to the EAPOL key request at all as part of the 4 way handshake for the WPA key(MSK) generation. There isin't much help at the MSDN apart from the above. The following is the code piece on how we filled in the fields, can anyone check if the code and tell what is wrong with this and the correct way of doing it The excerpts from the code is as follows: typedef unsigned char u8; struct vsa { u8 attr_type; u8 length; u8 salt[2]; u8 lenofkey; u8 value[32]; u8 padding[15]; }; struct vsa mppe_send_key, mppe_recv_key; char *pos = NULL; // 1-MPPE-Send Key, 1-MPPE-Recv Key, 1-raatMinimum(for termination) lenofuserattr = 3 * sizeof(RAS_AUTH_ATTRIBUTE); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes = (RAS_AUTH_ATTRIBUTE *) malloc(lenofuserattr); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes; memset(pos, 0, lenofuserattr); /* As per MSDN 52 for the sub-attribute AVP which would hold the MPPE keys 4 for Vendor-Id(311 for Microsoft) */ lenofvalue = 52 + 4; //MPPE-RECV-KEY pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].raaType = (raatVendorSpecific); //ras auth attribute type (VSA) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].dwLength = (lenofvalue); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].Value = (u8 *) malloc( sizeof(u8) * (lenofvalue) ); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[0].Value; memset(pos, 0, lenofvalue); vid= ntohl(311); memcpy(pos, &vid, 4); pos += 4; mppe_recv_key.attr_type = 17;//Type MPPE-Recv-Key mppe_recv_key.length = 52; //Total AVP length mppe_recv_key.salt[0] = 0x00; mppe_recv_key.salt[1] = 0x00; mppe_recv_key.lenofkey = 32; // Key length only // The second 32 bits of the buffer 'mppe_keys' is the MPPE-Recv key memcpy(mppe_recv_key.value, mppe_keys + 32, 32);//MPPE-Recv Key memset(mppe_recv_key.padding, 0, 15); //padding memcpy(pos, &mppe_recv_key, sizeof(struct vsa)); //sizeof(struct vsa) is equal to 52 //MPPE-SEND-KEY pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].raaType = (raatVendorSpecific); //ras auth attribute type (VSA) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].dwLength = (lenofvalue);//4 - Vendor- Id pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].Value = (u8 *) malloc( sizeof(u8) * (lenofvalue)); pos = (u8 *) pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[1].Value; memset(pos, 0, lenofvalue); vid= ntohl(311); memcpy(pos, &vid, 4); pos += 4; mppe_send_key.attr_type = 16; //Type MPPE-Send-Key mppe_send_key.length = 52; //Total AVP length mppe_send_key.salt[0] = 0x00; mppe_send_key.salt[1] = 0x00; mppe_send_key.lenofkey = 32; // Key length only // The first 32 bits of the buffer 'mppe_keys' is the MPPE-Send key memcpy(mppe_send_key.value, mppe_keys, 32); //MPPE-Send-Key memset(mppe_send_key.padding, 0, 15); // Padding memcpy(pos, &mppe_send_key, 52); //Terminate with raat Minimum pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].raaType = (raatMinimum); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].dwLength = (0); pEapOutput->pUserAttributes[2].Value = NULL; Thanks, Vijay Tag: How to perform FULL CA backup Tag: 91564

    - A twist to "Logon to domain" Hi all, just scanned the postings and i'm a little suprised. There seams to be no way, to make a user logon/authenticate at a domain WITHOUT the user making his username AND PASSWORD available to the application initiating the logon/ authentication process.... Is that right? I'm refering to CredUIPromptForCredentials function which "publishes" the password of the application the invoking it. Any hint how to initiate the authentication process in a way which does not make the password readable to the invoking application?

    - Waking up from hibernate If my computer hibernates, I move the mouse, or if that doesn't wake it up, I hit the power button. The "User Screen" opens to allow me to chose which user (me or my wife). It also lists the number of programs running, AND also states that i have XXX new mail messages. I have to assume that this is refering to mail in hotmail and not my actual e-mail account. Either way, this must mean that Windows is going to Hotmail with out my permission and checking for mail even though I didn't request this. To me this is an invasion. If I want to check for mail on Hotmail, I'll log in and look. Microsoft has no business checking to see if I have mail. It was quite a while back that I opened the hotmail account, but I don't recall giving permission for this invasion. I am forced to sign up for hotmail to allow access to this site, where does Microsoft get off checking my mail when I'm away from my computer? Maybe I did agree somewhere, we all know how they hide things in their terms of service/ privacy policies, and you have to accept to allow you to continue, just like this page, accept or Poat is grayed out.

    - SSL & renegotiation in IE 6.0 SP1 Dear All, Is there any known problems in IE 6.0 SP1 in SSL session renegotiation scenarios initiated by a SSL aware server. I have been facing 'Page cannot be displayed' problems on submitting form data (POST method). Actually the SSL session renegotiation is initiated by the server on receiving the POST request. On checking with the ethereal dump, i found that the negotiation process fails at the last hurdle. That is, after the client sends its Change Cipher Spec and Send Finished (both in encrypted form, Change Cipher Spec with the previous key while the Send Finished with the newly negotiated key), the server is promptly sending its Change cipher spec and send finished in encrypted fashion using appropriate keys. The server also follows up the send finished with the response application data encrypted with the lastly negotiated key. However IE closes the connection on receiving the application data. I have manually checked the SSL packets recieved on the client side using ethereal and found all of them to be proper (even decrypted them with the appropriate keys(viz, server private key) and found the application data to be proper).. The whole problem is, this behaviour of IE is not consistent and happens once in a while. So for i have encountered this problem in the following machine configurations. 1) Win 2000 5.00.2195 Professional SP4 with IE 6.0.2800.1106 Update Versions:SP1,Q833989,Q823353 2) Win 2003 Enterprise Edition SP1 with IE 6.0.3790.1830 Update Versions: SP1; 3) Win 98 SE 4.10.2222A with IE 6.0.2600 Any pointers on this problem is appreciated.

    - centralized event logging? centralized syslog... dumping event log? I've read through a few whitepapers from SANS about centralizing log files. One way was to install a syslog agent and forward it to a centralized syslog server. Another was to dump the event log to a file, and download it to a central box. Both those papers are not ancient, but also not very recent. Has anyone used splunk? I figure that would be a big time saver so i don't have to create my own frontend.

    - File Checksum Integrity Verifier (FCIV) utility - Exceptions List I'm trying to create an exceptions list when using the fciv utility but it's not working. I have 3 directories on my d drive - A, B, C and I want to exclude C from the file check. My initial command looks like this: fciv d:\ -r -exc exceptions.txt -md5 -xml test.xml My exception list (exceptions.txt) is in the same directory as my fciv utility and contains 1 line: d:\C I run the following command to verify: fciv -v -xml test.xml > testResult.txt The testResult.txt file includes all 3 directories but should exclude changes to the C directory based on my exceptions.txt.

Hi ,

I have tried to backup using CA snap-in under
all task--> Backup CA--> I select Private key, CArtificate and
Certificate Database to be backup

When I use this backup, to restore on another new server(I'm moving
original Sub CA to another new server)

It prompted me a error saying "I can restore using incremental
backup"...

How should I do a Full CA backup...?

Please advise.
Thanks

At what point in the process are you getting this error? If
you're seeing this during the restore then it sounds like you
have performed an incremental backup. Don't select the "Perform
incremental backup" option if you want a full backup.

The suggested method is to perform a System State backup and
restore.
