RE: Sharepoint Explorer View Issues
Maybe I'm beating a dead horse here, but I've got to try :-) We've discovered that by disabling Kerberos authentication on the site everything works perfectly. So, implied to me that there is a problem with Kerberos authentication on that sharepoint site, which led me to a very nice series about Kerberos on your blog. After reading thru them, I think I understand the problem, I just don't know how to fix it. Hopefully you or someone else here can advise. The server's name is MOSS, but we access it with the name SPPS (set up as a CNAME in DNS) via host headers. When we set it up, we set up a SPN for HTTP and the sharepoint service account on MOSS. My theory is that Kerberos is trying to look up a SPN for SPPS instead, which doesn't exist, and I can't add one because it isn't an object in AD.

Ken is the real expert on SPNs (I STILL have that thread saved), but if your theory is true, then couldn't you just add the SPN to the computer object of the Sharepoint FE server?

RE: Sharepoint Explorer View Issues
The secret here is multiple IP addresses. Instead of a CNAME for SPPS, create a new A record and give that new IP to the sharepoint server. Then create your HTTP SPN using the new IP. Kerberos for MOSS/WSS is a bit complicated, but figure any web app with a separate name will need its own IP. Our MOSS install includes a separate SPN/IP/Hostname for the actual site, the ssp, and the mysites site.

RE: Sharepoint Explorer View Issues
It's the other way around. Kerberos will query for SPNs and then find the machine (object) based on the dns lookup of what is in that SPN. This is why good functional DNS is a HUGE part of Kerberos authentication. Of course make sure you take care of the obvious first: are both service account and machines trusted for delegation. Is all time in sync for ticket distribution/expiration, etc. A good way to test your setup for kerb auth is using the LDP tool to query by SPN and see what it returns. Remember contrary to many bloggers, you need ONLY the FQDN, and you can only have an SPN registered once per IP (NOT PORT). Hope that helps a little, its kind of like that accounting 201 class, once you understand how it all works together it seems like it all makes sense. -Troy From: Tim Evans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 25, 2008 1:13 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Sharepoint Explorer View Issues But, from what I understand, Kerberos is going to look up the object based on what I type in (SPPS), so I'm not sure how it would find that SPN record.

RE: Sharepoint Explorer View Issues
OK, that's starting to make some sense. I went back and checked what we did to set the SPN previously, and we set the SPN for HTTP/MOSS on the service account. Would I set the IP SPN on the service account object or the computer object? I also checked the other items: The neither the computer account or the service account was trusted for delegation. So, I enabled the both the service account and the computer account for delegation on HTTP/MOSS. Would I need to add delegation for SPPS or the IP address here too?

Even corporate DNS servers can be poisoned (you get a user to visit a malicious website - your DNS server looks up the nameserver for the malicious website - now the malicious website has your DNS server's IP address, and poisons its cache).

Looking in the %systemroot%\policydefinitions folder of my own machine (fully-patched Vista), I see file versions newer than those on the network store.

RE: Hackers get hold of critical Internet flaw
It's not entirely FUD I doubt we will see the end of the internet, but it is the type of attack that can be widespread/automated. If the bad guys decide to embark on a widespread DNS cache poisoning attack, then lots of end users will have issues. SOHO NAT/router type devices, ISP DNS servers etc can all be easily poisoned. Even corporate DNS servers can be poisoned (you get a user to visit a malicious website - your DNS server looks up the nameserver for the malicious website - now the malicious website has your DNS server's IP address, and poisons its cache). The metasploit framework already has two attacks available, so it's only a short matter of time before widespread attacks start. That's not to say it's the end of the world - there are plenty of patches available - so start patching!

Moving Roaming Profiles Redirected Folders
Our client machines (all XP and Vista) make use of roaming profiles and folder redirection. They look to something like \\server1\profiles and \\server1\folders for this. The profiles and folders shares are located on a PowerVault SCSI storage system that's attached to Server1. Server1 has reached its end of life, and is being replaced with Server2. My plan is to disconnect the PowerVault from Server1 and plug it into Server2 (more about that in another thread). I'll then need to reconfigure users accounts and the relevant GPOs to point to \\server2\profiles and \\server2\folders. Has anyone ever done this? Any caveats? I've been doing some research, and some of what I've read seems to indicate that this can be trickier than it sounds--especially if Offline Folders are in use (which we have enabled for all of our machines so users can access their stuff even if disconnected from the network).

RE: Moving a PowerVault
If you are moving the controller card along with it then you don't have any worries, it contains all the drive configuration. If you're just moving the array then I don't really know. Someone else could probably answer if a similar controller would detect the drive array. I assume it's a Perc card of some sort. I would probably rebuild and restore anyway. I'm getting ready to do this myself but I'm going to move the Perc card with the array. If the Powervault is only half full of drives you could split the backplane on the array and put new drives in and connect them to your new server and then just move your files over to the other server and then decommission or reuse the old drives. -Original Message- From: John Hornbuckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 25, 2008 8:03 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Moving a PowerVault I've got a PowerVault SCSI RAID storage system attached to a server that's being decommissioned.

The new server has its own controller. I was thinking that the config info was actually stored in the PowerVault, and could be loaded from it on to the new controller.

Wouldn't naming the replacement server the same name and assigning it the same IP as the retired server handle that?

I did see the other responses (I am slacking in my newsgroup reading these days). The way I understand is that these are released with new OS's and new SP's for them. XP, XPSP1, XPSP2 (dunno about XPSP3), 2000 server had new ones starting around SP3. 2003 had new ones with SP2 (maybe SP1 too). Vista and VistaSP1 brought new ones. At www.gpanswers.com, there will be alink to the latest settings spreadsheet from microsoft and some FAQs. You can either build a machine that is the latest and populate the CS from this box (currently this is Server 2008 or VistaSP1 with RSAT). If you don't want to do that, you can extract the latest templates from the SP and populate the central store from that. Somewhere on gpanswers.com was the gory details on that.

I went to Home Depot bought some stuff and as I'm loading it in my truck, these two women approach me and start washing my windshield. The are well endowed twenty somethings and shall I say, easy on the eyes wearing shirts the same size as my four year olds. Now I didn't think anything of it, as I live in a college town and being a fraternity guy, I just figured it was one of the local sorority chapters conducting a fundraiser using there assets. They finish up as I finish loading and I reach for a couple of bucks. However, they refuse money and just ask for a ride a couple of miles down the road. I reluctantly agree and they hop in the truck. As soon as I start moving they start getting undressed and the on beside me jumps on mewhile the other one grabs my wallet. I couldn't believe it.

RE: Moving Roaming Profiles Redirected Folders
We do this a LOT (keep the same name). I get around the name remnant issues by building server2 off the network with the original name first--a trick our network admin taught me. Rename to newserver1 shortly before plugging in (and joining the domain). Rename the original server1 to oldserver1 at the right moment and then rename newserver1 back to server1. Just make sure you don't install anything important in between the renames, like IIS (adds Iusr accounts) or SQL. You also have to clean up DNS (and WINS if you are using) to get everything to come up just right, but it works really well. -Bonnie -Original Message- From: Joseph L.

Re: Favorite tool for finding differently-named duplicate files over gigs of data - Pay or free
google for deduplication - there are lots of alternatives, though they are mostly used in conjunction with backups. The 'best' ones (for some value of best, usually meaning expensive) seem to tokenize small chunks of data and back up those rather than raw data - somewhat analogous to what compression programs like WinZip/PKZip/et al do with their header.

RE: Server Colidation via VMWare
It's free. But to get the Boot disk to do 'Cold' migrations, you need to Enterprise version. The ent version also allows you to perform simultaneous conversions at a time, with the free version, you can only do one at a time. Not sure if the Ent convertor comes with ESX, but I know it comes with Virtual Center. Also, don't wait for ESXi to be free. It's only $67 when ordered on a Dell server.

Saving on a TS
Hi all, We are having some trouble with a TS. It isnt ours but another companies but we need it to work properly for our sake, so here goes. We use an app on that TS that we need to scan into using Remote Scan. The software app is supposed to save the file into its folder in program files but on the TS it saves it to your profile instead. I had them change the perms to give full control to remote desktop users for the apps folder but it still doesnt save there. Could there be some sort of policy on the TS that only allows saving to profiles? Any ideas what I could check?

RE: Hackers get hold of critical Internet flaw
There's an nslookup and a dig method with a DNS server that returns a TXT record giving the standard deviation, but I found those to not return anything quite often.

If the bad guys decide to embark on a widespread DNS cache poisoning attack, then lots of end users will have issues. SOHO NAT/router type devices, ISP DNS servers etc can all be easily poisoned. Even corporate DNS servers can be poisoned (you get a user to visit a malicious website - your DNS server looks up the nameserver for the malicious website - now the malicious website has your DNS server's IP address, and poisons its cache). The metasploit framework already has two attacks available, so it's only a short matter of time before widespread attacks start. That's not to say it's the end of the world - there are plenty of patches available - so start patching!

AP Recommendation
Hello all. I am looking for opinions on 802.11N ap's. I am currently running 6 Linksys WAP4400N ap's and am quite disgruntled with them. If more than a few clients are associated with them then they tend to disconnect and power cycle themselves. The Linksys folks can't even speak English much less solve the issue. I am looking at either the 3Com 9550 or the Cisco 1250 series. I would probably run 4 of them and I don't necessarily need them to be managed, I can run them as standalone. At most there may be 15-20 clients associated with each AP, usually probably 5-10. Any input is appreciated in terms of: -should I just bite the bullet and buy the $800 cisco's -have I missed any that are worth looking at Thanks, Mark - Two rules to success in life: 1.
