RE: Security by obscurity?
Further comments from my SE's: The main difference is that if you go to: http://hostname.domain (which is all that script kiddies would find), there is no login prompt.No login prompt = no brute force attacks.

It's all about risk management. What specific threat does having a different name for OWA counter? How effective will that countermeasure be? What will it cost you? As Bill Songstad says, script kiddies scan for IP addresses, and a directed attacker will probabbly be able to do the research needed to figure things out. Worms and other undirected, automated threats also use IP addresses. The only thing I can think of that this might help would be to reduce noise from casual intrusion attempts. For example, if you're giantcompany.com, you might want your webmail on obscure.giantcompany.com instead of mail.giantcompany.com, just to reduce the log noise from random people trying the typical name. It's akin to turning down the vibration sensitivity in your car alarm because you don't want it waking you up in the night just because somebody tried the handle, found it locked, and moved on. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~

Re: where in the GPO?
How long have you waited for the GPO to take effect? Have the computers been rebooted or have you performed a gpupdate /force? Do you have a slow network? Which group are you linking it to? Great utility for performing a gpupdate across the board: http://www.specopssoft.com/products/specopsgpupdate/ If you at some point set it then it will stay set. A Preference is just that your (as the administrator) preference. If you put it into the other one then it is no longer a Preference and it becomes part of the bible for that OS.

TY, I just upgraded to 4.90RC1 like 1 week ago. Time to get V 5.0 and finish off Froydor's NMAP book which is awesome... So much I wasn't using in my day to day scanning and testing, that now I can use. Sending packets with your own combination of Flags, to see if you can crash hosts, or just identify them is awesome, that plus using IDLE scan and bounce it off printers, or other poorly implemented IP devices is cool.

For those not subscribed to this alert. -- Peter van Houten Original Message Subject: Nmap 5.00 Released! Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2009 10:03:52 -0700 From: Fyodor fyo...@insecure.org To: nmap-hack...@insecure.org Hello everyone. I'm delighted to announce the release of Nmap 5.00! This is the first major release since 4.50 in 2007, and includes about 600 significant changes since then! We consider this the most important Nmap release since 1997, and we recommend that all current users upgrade. There are too many changes to list them all in this email, so here are the top 5 improvements in Nmap 5: 1) The new Ncat tool aims to be your Swiss Army Knife for data transfer, redirection, and debugging. We released a whole users' guide (http://nmap.org/ncat/guide/index.html) detailing security testing and network administration tasks it made easy with Ncat. Details: http://nmap.org/5/#changes-ncat 2) The addition of the Ndiff scan comparison tool completes Nmap's growth into a whole suite of applications which work together to serve network administrators and security practitioners. Ndiff makes it easy to automatically scan your network daily and report on any changes (systems coming up or going down or changes to the software services they are running). The other two tools now packaged with Nmap itself are Ncat and the much improved Zenmap GUI and results viewer. Details: http://nmap.org/5/#changes-ndiff 3) Nmap performance has improved dramatically. We spent last summer scanning much of the Internet and merging that data with internal enterprise scan logs to determine the most commonly open ports. This allows Nmap to scan fewer ports by default while finding more open ports. We also added a fixed-rate scan engine so you can bypass Nmap's congestion control algorithms and scan at exactly the rate (packets per second) you specify. Details: http://nmap.org/5/#changes-performance 4) We released Nmap Network Scanning, the official Nmap guide to network discovery and security scanning. From explaining port scanning basics for novices to detailing low-level packet crafting methods used by advanced hackers, this book suits all levels of security and networking professionals. A 42-page reference guide documents every Nmap feature and option, while the rest of the book demonstrates how to apply those features to quickly solve real-world tasks. More than half the book is available in the free online edition at http://nmap.org/book/toc.html. Details: http://nmap.org/5/#changes-book 5) The Nmap Scripting Engine (NSE) is one of Nmap's most powerful and flexible features. It allows users to write (and share) simple scripts to automate a wide variety of networking tasks. Those scripts are then executed in parallel with the speed and efficiency you expect from Nmap. All existing scripts have been improved, and 32 new ones added. New scripts include a whole bunch of MSRPC/NetBIOS attacks, queries, and vulnerability probes; open proxy detection; whois and AS number lookup queries; brute force attack scripts against the SNMP and POP3 protocols; and many more. All NSE scripts and modules are described in the new NSE documentation portal. Details: http://nmap.org/5/#changes-nse To learn about even more changes, see the full release notes here: http://nmap.org/5/ The Nmap 5.00 source code and Linux, Mac, and Windows packages are available for download at the usual place: http://nmap.org/download.html Go give it a try! And if you find any bugs, let us know on nmap-dev (http://nmap.org/book/man-bugs.html). As an open source project, we don't have a marketing budget. So please help spread the word about the new release! I encounter many folks at security conferences who have been using Nmap for more than a decade but just as a simple port scanner and never learned about the newer features. So this is our chance to spread the word about NSE, Ncat, Ndiff, Zenmap, and all the other great things Nmap has to offer! Enjoy the new release! -Fyodor

RE: Any WebSense Gurus?
Oh, yeah... Been through all the docs... I manually added every server to the dc_config.txt file (even though that's not supposed to be necessary--DC Agent is supposed to automatically find all the DCs on the network). No dice. I, too, have refused to install DC Agent on my DCs. It's only installed on the WebSense server. -Original Message- From: Free, Bob [mailto:r...@pge.com] Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 2:26 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Any WebSense Gurus? As I recall at the time it was set up several years ago, there were different configurations, we (the AD team) refused the one that required an agent on each DC running with high level privileges so it was setup with the DC Agent service running on the WebSense side. The agent needed to query each DC for session state to generate the username/IP mapping for its own internal db it uses for what they call Transparent Identification. If it couldn't obtain that information, you were popped for your credentials. So it needs a list of DCs in the domain for this session information. There is a service to get that information from the directory. I believe there are a number of different configurations for this product depending on its role and from glancing at a manual, the Transparent mode is an option. From a WebSense manual: WebSense DC Agent queries each domain controller for user logon sessions every 10 seconds by default, obtaining the user name and workstation name for each logon session. For each logon session identified, DC Agent performs DNS lookup to resolve the workstation name to an IP address, and records the resulting user name/IP address pair. In Websense v4.4, DC Agent (Domain Controller Agent) was the backbone of transparent user identification. In Websense Enterprise v5.x, DC Agent still plays the central role, but also works together with User Service to provide user logon information to the Websense servers. The DC Agent program is installed on a Windows NT 4 or 2000/2003 Server machine, and runs as a Windows service. DC Agent can be installed on one machine, and can discover domains outside of its own domain. Multiple DC Agents can also be used; this may benefit larger networks. For details, see Deployment of DC Agent and Related Components on page 17. DC Agent identifies available domains and domain controllers in the network, and then monitors the domain controllers and associated client machines (workstations) for user logon sessions. Filtering Service uses the information provided by DC Agent to apply Internet filtering policies to users logged on to the network. NetBIOS and Domain Discovery In order for automatic domain detection to occur, NetBIOS must be enabled on firewalls or routers connecting virtually or physically separate subnets or domains. In particular, TCP port 139 (used by NetBIOS) must be enabled. If NetBIOS is not enabled between domains and/or subnets, then Filtering Service and DC Agent cannot communicate with those domains or subnets by default. This can occasionally be true even if those domains or subnets are trusted by the domain where Filtering Service resides. If NetBIOS port 139 is not enabled, you may want to deploy additional DC Agents in virtually or physically remote domains. There is an option to disable NetBIOS usage, if you do not want to enable port 139. See the UseNetBIOS description under Initialization Parameters on page 85 for details. A program called XidDcAgent.exe is installed by default on the DC Agent machine, to the directory \Websense\bin\. This program runs as a Windows service, and initiates the processes that enable DC Agent to identify domains and monitor logon sessions. DC Agent stores domain information to the hard disk of the server where it is installed, in a file called dc_config.txt. New domain information is recorded to dc_config.txt upon startup, and every 24 hours thereafter by default. All that's configurable so he could have just been mad at me for the 24 hr period after I promoted the new DC or whatever interval he had configured for DC discovery (this was the first additional DC in that domain in many years) It also was the 1st x64 DC in a very busy site on, comparatively, pretty high end HW so it grabbed much of the authentication traffic for that site. Potentially thousands of folks could have been getting popped for creds that 1st day and it would have been escalated to him, perhaps that's all it was. -Original Message- From: Christopher Bodnar [mailto:christopher_bod...@glic.com] Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 9:02 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Any WebSense Gurus?

RE: Security by obscurity?
There is nothing wrong with obscurity - it's just that you can't rely on it. An NTFS ACL is guaranteed by the OS to work a certain way always - if you set an ACE on a sensitive file then you can rely on certain identities have access to it, and others being denied The same file, buried in a folder with tens of thousands of others, will also be harder to attack. However you can't rely on this type of obscurity to protect your file. An attacker might get lucky. Or they might know exactly what to look for. Or they might just write a little app to try every possible file in that folder. Obscurity isn't bad. It just doesn't give you any guarantees about anything.

I downloaded the BES Express but have not installed it yet. BlackBerry Enterprise Server is another way. I signed up for a bb email addy but never get any emails sent. Who did you sign-up with? Contact them for assistance. I installed the Desktop manager which sees the phone (and it's pin) but the desktop redirector just shows No PIN. Desktop redirection will not work in that case. Unfortunately, we only use BES, so I don't know what the cause might be or how to fix it. There are some useful BlackBerry forums on the web.

Re: Security by obscurity?
On Fri, Jul 17, 2009 at 2:04 AM, David Lumdavid@nwea.org wrote: Further comments from my SE's: The main difference is that if you go to: http://hostname.domain (which is all that script kiddies would find), there is no login prompt. No login prompt = no brute force attacks. Having the IP does nothing for you in this case. If someone's doing untargeted IP scanning for OWA servers and running brute force attacks against any they find, then they're almost certainly going to be trying http://host/exchange as well as http://host/, since the former is the default. http://host/obscure would stop such blind attacks (but not anything more sophisticated). Again, this is more of a reduce the amount of log noise measure than a real security measure. As such, I would only implement it if there actually is a significant amount of log noise problem. If there are any links to your OWA URL anywhere on the Internet, web crawlers will find them. Some untargeted scanners use crawlers. So your obscure URL will not stay secret for long. Someone will eventually put it in an email or something that ends up harvested by a spam robot or something. The hallmark of security through obscurity is a feature which is expected to remain secret but is not intended to be easily/frequently changed to counter disclosure. So unless you plan on changing your http://host/obscure URL on a regular basis, it is security through obscurity. So, again, maybe worth it to reduce log noise (or maybe not), but otherwise not worth the user support burden. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~

TVK -Original Message- From: Free, Bob [mailto:r...@pge.com] Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 1:26 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Any WebSense Gurus? As I recall at the time it was set up several years ago, there were different configurations, we (the AD team) refused the one that required an agent on each DC running with high level privileges so it was setup with the DC Agent service running on the WebSense side. The agent needed to query each DC for session state to generate the username/IP mapping for its own internal db it uses for what they call Transparent Identification. If it couldn't obtain that information, you were popped for your credentials. So it needs a list of DCs in the domain for this session information. There is a service to get that information from the directory. I believe there are a number of different configurations for this product depending on its role and from glancing at a manual, the Transparent mode is an option. From a WebSense manual: WebSense DC Agent queries each domain controller for user logon sessions every 10 seconds by default, obtaining the user name and workstation name for each logon session. For each logon session identified, DC Agent performs DNS lookup to resolve the workstation name to an IP address, and records the resulting user name/IP address pair. In Websense v4.4, DC Agent (Domain Controller Agent) was the backbone of transparent user identification. In Websense Enterprise v5.x, DC Agent still plays the central role, but also works together with User Service to provide user logon information to the Websense servers. The DC Agent program is installed on a Windows NT 4 or 2000/2003 Server machine, and runs as a Windows service. DC Agent can be installed on one machine, and can discover domains outside of its own domain. Multiple DC Agents can also be used; this may benefit larger networks. For details, see Deployment of DC Agent and Related Components on page 17. DC Agent identifies available domains and domain controllers in the network, and then monitors the domain controllers and associated client machines (workstations) for user logon sessions. Filtering Service uses the information provided by DC Agent to apply Internet filtering policies to users logged on to the network. NetBIOS and Domain Discovery In order for automatic domain detection to occur, NetBIOS must be enabled on firewalls or routers connecting virtually or physically separate subnets or domains. In particular, TCP port 139 (used by NetBIOS) must be enabled. If NetBIOS is not enabled between domains and/or subnets, then Filtering Service and DC Agent cannot communicate with those domains or subnets by default. This can occasionally be true even if those domains or subnets are trusted by the domain where Filtering Service resides. If NetBIOS port 139 is not enabled, you may want to deploy additional DC Agents in virtually or physically remote domains. There is an option to disable NetBIOS usage, if you do not want to enable port 139. See the UseNetBIOS description under Initialization Parameters on page 85 for details. A program called XidDcAgent.exe is installed by default on the DC Agent machine, to the directory \Websense\bin\. This program runs as a Windows service, and initiates the processes that enable DC Agent to identify domains and monitor logon sessions. DC Agent stores domain information to the hard disk of the server where it is installed, in a file called dc_config.txt. New domain information is recorded to dc_config.txt upon startup, and every 24 hours thereafter by default. All that's configurable so he could have just been mad at me for the 24 hr period after I promoted the new DC or whatever interval he had configured for DC discovery (this was the first additional DC in that domain in many years) It also was the 1st x64 DC in a very busy site on, comparatively, pretty high end HW so it grabbed much of the authentication traffic for that site.

OT: Friday Funny - Banned From Wal-Mart
Mr. Caesare, this is especially for you since you need a laugh or two to get you through the long day/night you have scheduled. Warning, some may find this politically, moraly or gender(ly) incorrect, but it's one of the funniest things I've read since the squirrel motorcycle story.(1, 3 12 are my personal favorites). BANNED FROM WAL-MART This is why women should not take men shopping against their will. After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Wal-Mart. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, my wife is like most women - she loved to browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Wal-Mart: Dear Mrs. Samsel, Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Samsel are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras. 1.

July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away. ' 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of MM's on layaway. 6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him, he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' 9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the ' Mission Impossible' theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!' 14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!' And last, but not least . 15.

Server 2008 and Windows Updates
Has anyone had issues with Windows 2008 Server giving error when you try to manually check for windows updates? I have a fresh install, and it's doing it. After spending a day messing with it, I rebuilt it and same thing. Fresh install, nothing custom. The error code is 80072EE2. I've google it for several hours, and none of the suggestions I've found work. Weird thing is it will randomly work, but not consistantly. This is running inside a VMWare ESX box. That shouldn't matter I don't think. It's not part of the domain yet, so no GPOs are applied. Any ideas? Anyone seen this before? Things I've tried: - Rebuild - Add 8530 to windows firewall - Turn off windows firewall - Restart windows update service - Install Server 2008 SP2 - Delete the windows update temp directory - Turn off all the IE security settings that I could find Thanks in advance, Jon ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~
RE: Any WebSense Gurus?
Any chance the WS server isn't getting good info from DNS? Pointing to the wrong DNS server, etc? Does a DNS query from that server return all the correct records?

As I recall at the time it was set up several years ago, there were different configurations, we (the AD team) refused the one that required an agent on each DC running with high level privileges so it was setup with the DC Agent service running on the WebSense side. The agent needed to query each DC for session state to generate the username/IP mapping for its own internal db it uses for what they call Transparent Identification. If it couldn't obtain that information, you were popped for your credentials. So it needs a list of DCs in the domain for this session information. There is a service to get that information from the directory. I believe there are a number of different configurations for this product depending on its role and from glancing at a manual, the Transparent mode is an option. From a WebSense manual: WebSense DC Agent queries each domain controller for user logon sessions every 10 seconds by default, obtaining the user name and workstation name for each logon session. For each logon session identified, DC Agent performs DNS lookup to resolve the workstation name to an IP address, and records the resulting user name/IP address pair. In Websense v4.4, DC Agent (Domain Controller Agent) was the backbone of transparent user identification. In Websense Enterprise v5.x, DC Agent still plays the central role, but also works together with User Service to provide user logon information to the Websense servers. The DC Agent program is installed on a Windows NT 4 or 2000/2003 Server machine, and runs as a Windows service. DC Agent can be installed on one machine, and can discover domains outside of its own domain. Multiple DC Agents can also be used; this may benefit larger networks. For details, see Deployment of DC Agent and Related Components on page 17. DC Agent identifies available domains and domain controllers in the network, and then monitors the domain controllers and associated client machines (workstations) for user logon sessions. Filtering Service uses the information provided by DC Agent to apply Internet filtering policies to users logged on to the network. NetBIOS and Domain Discovery In order for automatic domain detection to occur, NetBIOS must be enabled on firewalls or routers connecting virtually or physically separate subnets or domains. In particular, TCP port 139 (used by NetBIOS) must be enabled. If NetBIOS is not enabled between domains and/or subnets, then Filtering Service and DC Agent cannot communicate with those domains or subnets by default. This can occasionally be true even if those domains or subnets are trusted by the domain where Filtering Service resides. If NetBIOS port 139 is not enabled, you may want to deploy additional DC Agents in virtually or physically remote domains. There is an option to disable NetBIOS usage, if you do not want to enable port 139. See the UseNetBIOS description under Initialization Parameters on page 85 for details. A program called XidDcAgent.exe is installed by default on the DC Agent machine, to the directory \Websense\bin\. This program runs as a Windows service, and initiates the processes that enable DC Agent to identify domains and monitor logon sessions. DC Agent stores domain information to the hard disk of the server where it is installed, in a file called dc_config.txt. New domain information is recorded to dc_config.txt upon startup, and every 24 hours thereafter by default. All that's configurable so he could have just been mad at me for the 24 hr period after I promoted the new DC or whatever interval he had configured for DC discovery (this was the first additional DC in that domain in many years) It also was the 1st x64 DC in a very busy site on, comparatively, pretty high end HW so it grabbed much of the authentication

Warning, some may find this politically, moraly or gender(ly) incorrect, but it's one of the funniest things I've read since the squirrel motorcycle story. (1, 3 12 are my personal favorites). BANNED FROM WAL-MART This is why women should not take men shopping against their will. After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Wal-Mart. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, my wife is like most women - she loved to browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Wal-Mart: Dear Mrs. Samsel, Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Samsel are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras. 1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking. 2 . July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals. 3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right away. ' 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of MM's on layaway. 6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him, he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' 9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the ' Mission Impossible' theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!' 14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!' And last, but not least . 15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here!' -- Sherry Abercrombie Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Arthur C.

TVK -Original Message- From: Free, Bob [mailto:r...@pge.com] Sent: Thursday, July 16, 2009 1:26 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Any WebSense Gurus? As I recall at the time it was set up several years ago, there were different configurations, we (the AD team) refused the one that required an agent on each DC running with high level privileges so it was setup with the DC Agent service running on the WebSense side. The agent needed to query each DC for session state to generate the username/IP mapping for its own internal db it uses for what they call Transparent Identification. If it couldn't obtain that information, you were popped for your credentials. So it needs a list of DCs in the domain for this session information. There is a service to get that information from the directory. I believe there are a number of different configurations for this product depending on its role and from glancing at a manual, the Transparent mode is an option. From a WebSense manual: WebSense DC Agent queries each domain controller for user logon sessions every 10 seconds by default, obtaining the user name and workstation name for each logon session. For each logon session identified, DC Agent performs DNS lookup to resolve the workstation name to an IP address, and records the resulting user name/IP address pair. In Websense v4.4, DC Agent (Domain Controller Agent) was the backbone of transparent user identification. In Websense Enterprise v5.x, DC Agent still plays the central role, but also works together with User Service to provide user logon information to the Websense servers. The DC Agent program is installed on a Windows NT 4 or 2000/2003 Server machine, and runs as a Windows service. DC Agent can be installed on one machine, and can discover domains outside of its own domain. Multiple DC Agents can also be used; this may benefit larger networks. For details, see Deployment of DC Agent and Related Components on page 17. DC Agent identifies available domains and domain controllers in the network, and then monitors the domain controllers and associated client machines (workstations) for user logon sessions. Filtering Service uses the information provided by DC Agent to apply Internet filtering policies to users logged on to the network. NetBIOS and Domain Discovery In order for automatic domain detection to occur, NetBIOS must be enabled on firewalls or routers connecting virtually or physically separate subnets or domains. In particular, TCP port 139 (used by NetBIOS) must be enabled. If NetBIOS is not enabled between domains and/or subnets, then Filtering Service and DC Agent cannot communicate with those domains or subnets by default. This can occasionally be true even if those domains or subnets are trusted by the domain where Filtering Service resides. If NetBIOS port 139 is not enabled, you may want to deploy additional DC Agents in virtually or physically remote domains. There is an option to disable NetBIOS usage, if you do not want to enable port 139. See the UseNetBIOS description under Initialization Parameters on page 85 for details. A program called XidDcAgent.exe is installed by default on the DC Agent machine, to the directory \Websense\bin\. This program runs as a Windows service, and initiates the processes that enable DC Agent to identify domains and monitor logon sessions. DC Agent stores domain information to the hard disk of the server
