Citrix web interface query
We have two old Windows 2003 domains with PS3 and PS4 farms respectively. We are in the process of migrating the users to a Windows 2008 R2 domain running Xen6. We need to keep some of the old applications from the old domains available in the new infrastructure via the Program Neighborhood Agent, so we have multi-homed our new web interface server with connections to the old PS3 and PS4 farms. So far, so good. Problem comes when a user in the new domain logs onto the PNAgent. They get an error of the credentials supplied were invalid. When I remove the entries for the legacy farms from the web interface, the user can log in fine. So it appears when the PNAgent is submitting the user credentials to the legacy domains for validation, they are being rejected somewhere. Is there anything special that needs to be done to allow the user to log into the web interface in this configuration? There is obviously a trust in place, so the user in the new domain should be validated by the old ones. I *could* just publish up some .ica files for the new users, but that smells like an administrative nightmare Any help is appreciated, TIA, JRR -- On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'

Re: Citrix web interface query
An update on thisthe web interface logon works fine if the username and password from the new domain match that in the legacy domain. Which will mean that it will fail again as soon as user's change their password in the new domain...

RE: Citrix web interface query
Are you publishing apps from PS3, PS4 and XA6? What Web Interface version are you using? Version 5.3 is the only version that can talk to XA6 and anything on 2008 R2. I have never had to multi-home a WI server. WI can easily serve apps from multiple PS/XA version with no problems.

Re: Citrix web interface query
Yes, we are using apps from all three farms, it is the latest WI, 5.3 I think my use of the term multi-home may have been a little misleading - I just meant that it was connected up to all three disparate farms from the same web interface - I haven't had to do anything with the networking. Ooops It's almost as if the trusts aren't working between the domains - I can only log on successfully as a new domain user when the passwords and usernames match up. if a user changes his password in the new domain, there won't be any synchronisation done to the old, so that will bring the problem up again.

Re: Citrix web interface query
Yes, got all the appropriate entries in there. The logon works fine if I specify credentials from the old domains. It's just when I supply a username and password from the new domain - it barfs out the invalid credentials error. I can access file shares and such like in the old domains under a new domain userid, so I'm a bit confused as to why the PNAgent logon won't go.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
There are pros and cons to both. I run both TS and Citrix XenApp5 in my environment. If the app is not certified for Citrix, tread cautiously, IMO. Even then, just because it works well in one instance, having a handful of users hit a single TS (or Citrix server) to run the app simultaneously could be bad news from a performance standpoint. I believe that the ICA protocol is much more efficient than RDP, however performance if the app is poorly designed and not suited for use via Citrix can be worse in Citrix than in a TS environment. YMMV. TEST, TEST, TEST, and when you're done testing, test some more. Get feedback from other customers prior to signing on the dotted line if possible, and ask very pointed questions about how they are deploying. Get service levels and guarantees in the contract so you can have an exit strategy if things don't pan out according to your performance needs. (no pun intended). Jonathan L.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
Last I checked TS licensing was far cheaper than Citrix - see if there's a big price delta. If yes, then see if there's any reason the cheaper solution wouldn't work. If no big price difference do you have any in-house knowledge that knows one app better than the other? I am in the midst of standing up 2008 Terminal Servers to replace our aging Citrix Metaframe and 2008 R2 TS is very easy to set up. To add into this question, I'd love to hear why people would recommend Citrix over TS 2008. TS 2008's application management is far better than previous Terminal Server versions.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
Personally I'd rather use Citrix instead of TS/RDP given the option as long as it performs well. We use a Citrix Access Gateway, and my end users love it (as long as the required plugin is easily downloadable/installable!!! - for both PC And Mac!) it is a far sight easier to use and support IMO than traditional VPN/RDP.

Re: Replacing drive in Raid 1 (+ 0)
Yes I meant DL, anyhow I got a new drive pulled the old one and hot-swapped the new drive it rebuilt in less than 1 hour, back up with no problems, thanks for all the suggestions.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
I did just that, Webster. I tried to save our organization some money by using Terminal Server 2008 for our enterprise medical system. That lasted maybe a year of constant issues. Meanwhile my XenApp systems hummed along quietly. Currently I am moving the Terminal Servers XenApp systems. One thing I really like about XenApp is siloing. Great Plains users on a few servers, EMR on another, another bunch of servers for general apps. Not possible in Terminal Server. So the money I saved was burned by man hours supporting it.

Re: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk
You may see no copyright infringement, but the law would generally disagree with you. It's possible you have the one installation license out there that isn't written the way Ben suggests, but I'd doubt it. Especially if it's old enough that the developer is no longer around. That's just the way those licenses were written, in general, at that time - and you can disagree with them all you want, it doesn't change them. There are very good odds that what you're asking, publicly, is technically illegal. Can you do it? Have IT Admins been doing it for years? Yup.

Re: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk
Don't read too much into it. If you migrate the application from one computer to another, you just need to remove the program from the old system. Now, in your case, I would just migrate it. The XP systems will go away, eventually. Why can't you setup a Virtual Desktop, load XP in it and then do the migration from Pick Me App? That way, you can still run it on the Windows 7 system, at least till you can find a way to install it directly in Windows 7.

RE: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk
I'm by no means a license expert, but isn't a license tied to USE of the software, not the physical media? Maybe depends on the company? Many software vendors just put the executables right on their website for download. Heck many even put it on third party shareware websites that we all hate. You just need a license to USE it. So, is there a real difference than downloading the software from the Internet as opposed to downloading from another place on the Internet? Being rhetorical, not suggesting it is actually legal.

One thing everyone should understand: What you or I think *should* be the way things work doesn't matter. I'm describing the law -- the reality of the situation. Copyright law doesn't care that you had a license for your copy. If you and I both buy a copy of the same book, and you loose your copy, I don't have the right to make a copy for you. The same applies to software or anything else protected under copyright law. If the license I have specifically grants me the right to make copies for other people who also have a license to use the software, that would be okay, but I've never heard of such a thing for payware, and I would be quite astonished to learn of it. Making copies for others is usually explicitly forbidden, in very strong language. There is a copyright concept called fair use. For example, making a backup copy for yourself is considered fair use. Ripping a CD to MP3 for use on your own MP3 player is considered fair use. I suppose you could argue me making a copy for you is fair use, but I'd be surprised if a court accepted that, especially in the current legal climate. That said, I'm haven't done a case law search. If people here don't like this, I suggest you write your congressional representatives and ask them to consider the rights of consumers as well as copyright holders. I wouldn't hold out much hope for that, though; the copyright cartels (RIAA, BSA, etc.) practically own congress.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
That’s verbatim from the link Webster provided. By silo, do you mean say 3 servers with apps A,B and C, 2 servers with D and E? Can’t you do that with TS servers? You’d just have 2 TS farms right and they wouldn’t necessarily need to know the other farm exists so it wouldn’t matter that the 2 servers aren’t identical to the two others. I’m obviously missing something here… I have 3 TS machines here – not in a farm yet – and two are identical to each other and the 3rd is completely different, so the different one probably can’t be part of a farm that the other two are in, right?

License agreements typically attempt to cover all sorts of things. One of the things licenses cover is copyright permissions. If they didn't, installing software from CD to your hard disk would potentially be considered copyright infringement (although fair use would probabbly cover it anyway). This part of the license is backed up by force of copyright law. The copyright holder can file a civil suit against you if you infringe. Licenses may also attempt to cover use. This is not part of copyright law. My understanding of this aspect is much more limited. As I understand it, software publishers generally argue the license agreement is a contract, and thus you agree to follow their terms of use, or subject yourself to whatever penalties the contract specifies. The enforceability of license agreements as a legally-binding contract is somewhat murky. You usually don't get to see the license until after you've paid, and you usually don't have to sign anything, and I'm told both of those are no-no's in the world of contract law. That said, I've not studied this stuff extensively, so the software publisher view may have more legal currency then I think. But any restrictions on use (enforceable or not) are independent of copyright law.

RE: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
Okay I understand you. Yes, your definition is correct. On XenApp servers though, a farm is your collection of servers. Some may have one app, others different applications. Or you can have multiple farms to keep admin/availability separate. It's based on preference and politics. I have one farm but apps on different servers. As for your TS machines, I cannot speak to R2, so it might be different in that version. In 2008 you want to have all apps installed on all terminal servers. This is because the session broker routes to any server, and you cannot define which servers are to be used for particular applications.

RE: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk
To use your metaphor, no one is asking you to make a copy of your book. I am asking if you will loan me your book for the original legitimate and legal purpose. You are all reading into the request things that were not asked, for purposes of the discussion. I was looking for an original installation disk. Not a copy. One that was sold for the purpose of installing one licensed copy on each machine for which a license was purchased. They provided one installation disk without limit to the number of copies to be installed, so long as each copy installed was covered by a license. That is what we wanted to do. They are not able to replace the lost or damaged disk since the version in use is no longer supported. So we are trying to do locate one online. No one is trying to make a copy of licensed software. Or install unpurchased copies. Never mind. It is not worth the continuing arguments this is generating. Thanks anyway. By the way, in the same vein, be sure not to use anything but the very install disks you got with your individual copy of your server software to do reinstall. That would also be copyright infringement according to all the people that have just said so. And no network installs. -Original Message- From: Ben Scott [mailto:mailvor...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, October 29, 2010 3:54 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk On Fri, Oct 29, 2010 at 11:44 AM, Steve Kelsay kels...@sctax.org wrote: I see no copyright infringement if I use a legitimate original copy of a setup media to install a licensed copy of the software. One thing everyone should understand: What you or I think *should* be the way things work doesn't matter. I'm describing the law -- the reality of the situation. Copyright law doesn't care that you had a license for your copy. If you and I both buy a copy of the same book, and you loose your copy, I don't have the right to make a copy for you. The same applies to software or anything else protected under copyright law. If the license I have specifically grants me the right to make copies for other people who also have a license to use the software, that would be okay, but I've never heard of such a thing for payware, and I would be quite astonished to learn of it. Making copies for others is usually explicitly forbidden, in very strong language. There is a copyright concept called fair use. For example, making a backup copy for yourself is considered fair use. Ripping a CD to MP3 for use on your own MP3 player is considered fair use. I suppose you could argue me making a copy for you is fair use, but I'd be surprised if a court accepted that, especially in the current legal climate. That said, I'm haven't done a case law search. If people here don't like this, I suggest you write your congressional representatives and ask them to consider the rights of consumers as well as copyright holders. I wouldn't hold out much hope for that, though; the copyright cartels (RIAA, BSA, etc.) practically own congress.

Re: Citrix or Windows Terminal Server?
I would say it makes sense to have the same hardware config, but not that that's an absolute requirement. Doesn't the thread say that the application installations should be identical instead? This being so they act the same way regardless of which TS server a user hits when they start the application. We use Citrix vs TS as our platform so I can't say too much about TS. However, in our citrix farm, we have about 60 servers running mps 4.5. We have what we call Silos. For example, the MS Office SIlo may have 6 servers. They aren't all the exact same hardware, but they all use the exact same Office installation, settings, patches, etc. Same for some of our home grown applications - one of them has 4 servers and 3 of the servers are the same hardware and OS(Windows Server 2000), 1 happened to have been upgraded to server 2003 on a new box, but the application installation, configuration, drive letters, etc. are all the same and it works fine (at least in our farm).

It appears to ignore the fact I've included additional post install tasks. My googlefu hasn't turned up much of anything, other than notes about the proper way to update existing Office installs. I'm trying to do a new install. Has anyone run into this before? - Sean ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
RE: Citrix web interface query
In Web Interface Management Console: Click your site Click Authentication Methods Click on your selected method Click Properties Click General | Domain Restriction Do you have Restrict to the following domains selected? If so, what domain(s) is/are there? For mine I have websterslab.com. If I login as websterslab\cwebster, the online plugin will not pass-through the login credentials because they do not match what you specified. Same problem if you specify websterslab and the user logs in with websterslab.com\cwebster or, if you allow, cwebs...@websterslab.com, the pass-through will not pass-through because the domains do not match. Am I clear in what I am trying to explain what may be causing your issue?

Webster From: James Rankin [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Subject: Re: Citrix web interface query Yes, got all the appropriate entries in there. The logon works fine if I specify credentials from the old domains. It's just when I supply a username and password from the new domain - it barfs out the invalid credentials error. I can access file shares and such like in the old domains under a new domain userid, so I'm a bit confused as to why the PNAgent logon won't go. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
Re: Flowchart PDQ version 1.1 - Need setup disk

My apologies; I assumed you wanted to find someone with a disc so they could make you a copy. I presumed that if someone had a copy, they would not want to transfer it to you, since they were presumably saving it for some reason. By the way, in the same vein, be sure not to use anything but the very install disks you got with your individual copy of your server software to do reinstall. That would also be copyright infringement according to all the people that have just said so. No, actually, it wouldn't. As I mentioned, most licenses do permit copies to be made by the purchaser, for internal use, for purposes of installation, staging, and/or backup. And even if they did not, the law specifically allows for such use.

A real puzzler...
All, I'm in the US, and have a problem in our AU office that I'm having difficulty wrapping my brain around. I have a theory, but it is still a strange situation, and any feedback anyone can provide would be appreciated. The AU office has a server, which I've just recently stood up, using an address assigned by DHCP. This is not ideal, obviously, but the thing refuses to take the static IP address that it's slated to get (192.168.61.30.) It's a VM on a new ESXi server. When I try to assign it the static address, it keeps getting an error message that another machine has the address. However, when I ping the IP address that the machine refuses to use, I get no answer. When I use netmon on the VM in the AU office to capture ARP traffic, I get a MAC address that's for the DC. However, the DC has never had 192.168.61.30 - it's been 192.168.61.31 all its life in the AU office. I've even fired up regedit on the DC to search for the IP address, and all I'm showing is the one it's supposed to have - 192.168.61.31 I'm more than a little baffled by this one. One thing I should note, just because: The DC in the AU office is a machine that had been used in the US office about two years ago. We did a P2V on it, and the VM from that still lives on in the US office. They do share a MAC address (I don't know why, as I would have expected the the MAC to change when it got the virtual NIC), but AFAICT this shouldn't make a difference, since they are in different subnets entirely, with different addresses. Anyone have thoughts on this?
