Slightly OT: training space

2010-11-18 Thread Tom Miller
Folks,
 
We are moving to a new enterprise system here, and most staff need to be 
trained on it.  This means we need space to accommodate large groups of people, 
possibly simultaneously.  Our current training labs and various seminar rooms 
won't be large enough.  My boss is thinking of renting trailers of some sort.  
Anyone else have any suggestions?  We'd need the space for 5-7 months.  I was 
thinking local schools (some have closed here but still operational otherwise).
 
Connectivity would be desired, although I can bring in routers/switches and 
build a network if needed.

Hampton University has a nice training lab on the the top floor of the
library.  You could check with them about renting it, but a 5-7 month gig is
probably not feasible.  http://cit.hamptonu.edu/inside_cit/departments/atm/

On the trailer side of things, Usry (based in Richmond) has a great
reputation, but I don't know if they go all the way to your neck of the
woods.  It might be worth giving them a call.  www.usryinc.com

Re: Backup Solutions

System Center Data Protection Manager? DPM is pretty cheap, has file level 
backup, and works with the volume snapshot service since it's a Microsoft 
product. Does disk-to-disk and disk-to-tape backup. It can also back up 
Exchange and Hyper-V. Licensed per client.

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good value (i.e reasonably cheap), file-level backup 
solution for a small business?  I just received a quote for Symantec Backup 
Exec 2010 and it is way out of our price range.

Thanks,
Mark

Re: Backup exec 2010 r2

2010-11-18 Thread Kramer, Jack
Some experience with vRanger – a little bit of a pain to set up, amazing when 
it works; however, SAN or NAS issues cripple it. Also has problems with very 
large (1TB+) VMs – the ESX server has a tendency to get stuck forever at taking 
the snapshot of the VM and you'll lose some performance not to mention a failed 
backup or twelve. File level restore of Windows guests is an amazing feature 
though.

2010-11-18 Thread David Lum
Back story: As I have discussed here earlier, I have a client that I was going 
to effectively P2V a server onto itself, and one tool I was pointed at was 
DISK2VHD...in tests I managed to get everything to look good, the DISK2VHD 
system worked fine on a different Hyper-V host, but what I couldn't test was 
Hyper-V on the system itself before blowing away the existing 2K3 OS.

Here's my oops: Back in April I contacted Dell and asked hey can this S/N 
PowerEdge run 2008 R2?. They replied yep, just update the firmware. Last 
Friday I flatten the machine, install 2008 R2 with no issues, but when I got to 
add the Hyper-V rolethe CPU does not support it, DAMN ME! What I did was 
ASSumed that being able to run 2008 R2 also meant it could run Hyper-V, but it 
can't...(insert forehead slapping DUH icon here). In my head I had asked them 
about Hyper-V but looking back at my e-mails I only asked about R2 and not 
Hyper-V. Anyone here do something like that, and how did you remedy it?

I had been prepared for almost anything - including this - so the client is 
operating fine but I didn't gain the 2nd Hyper-V host server I was hoping for. 
They DO have another server that is Hyper-V capable but I'm not about to ask 
them to fork out $700 more for ANOTHER 2008 Server OS, so I am seeing if I can 
find it cheap (and legally) somewhere and out-of-pocket it.

Re: Slightly OT: training space

2010-11-18 Thread Jon Harris
I don't know where you are but I would think at this time many
colleges/universities would have space and facilities to do this.  I know
our local community college (now a state college) and university both have
space they rent out and if you want to rent the extra's they will supply
hardware depending on your requirements.  The community college has always
proven to be a bit easier to deal with and been the fastest to get
information from (like pricing and what extras they can or will supply).
The university has always been a little slower and not as willing to help
with some aspects of training they don't control.

Re: You guys ever do this?

2010-11-18 Thread Andrew S. Baker
What CPU is it?

You need to have hardware virtualization assistance, and it must be enabled.

Plan B:  Put Windows 2003 back on the server you flattened, install
VirtualBox on that server and run the VHD image you have.
http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

Then put 2008 R2 on the other box that is more capable.

You need to have hardware virtualization assistance, and it must be enabled.

Plan B:  Put Windows 2003 back on the server you flattened, install VirtualBox 
on that server and run the VHD image you have.

Then put 2008 R2 on the other box that is more capable.

Re: You guys ever do this?

2010-11-18 Thread Jon Harris
Microsoft Virtual server will run your VHD.  Have you placed a call into
Dell to see if you can run the Hyper-V?  I know I have had to turn on the VT
technology in the BIOS on every machine I have touched from Dell.  Why they
don't turn it on by default is beyond me but that is just me.

I have also run into a case with them saying yes but.. for the Dell PE
1950's (I think) with there being 2 differnet system boards one that did
support Hyper-V the other did not.  Pain in the rear to get them to tell me
if the machine I had would or would not.  Once I got that figured out I
found they would not sell the system board that would support Hyper-V even
though they admitted to having them.

RE: You guys ever do this?

2010-11-18 Thread David Lum
It's a PowerEdge 840 with a Pentium D CPU. Some of them came with Xeon's which 
would have met the requirements.

Plan B is use an older server to have 2003 on it, put 2008 R2 on the newer box 
and migrate functions off the 2003 box as time allows. The 2008 system is now 
their file/print and the 2003 is DC/DNS/DHCP.

Their other system that can run Hyper-V doesn't have the disk subsystem to 
support 17 users (SATA), what I want a 2nd Hyper-V system for is simply 
failover, as their existing SBS server is a Hyper-V VM. It doesn't have to be 
super fast on the failover system, just operable while I would be resolving 
whatever blew up the original host.

Mainly I feel like an idiot for asking about 2008 R2 and not specifically 
Hyper-V. I am fortunate that the geekage I was attempting is not as important 
to my client as it is to me. They see it as their server got a 
currently-supported OS so they're better off now than they had been.

RE: MAK and MKS?

2010-11-18 Thread Kennedy, Jim
KMS. However it isn't really licensing. It is activation.

If you go KMS you set up your own internal serverset up your 
computers/servers with no license code entered other than the KMS server. They 
automagically contact your internal KMS server to activate.  How the license 
count is kept track of is a mystery to me. Everything I saw about it says that 
it does not count licensesit does not feed any count info to MS. It just 
checks that it is genuine.

My suggestion is to use a 2008 R2 server for your KMS server. Other options 
might make it difficult to activate all the various products. Also, if you have 
MAK keys you can convert them to KMS no problem.

RE: LDAPS Setup question

2010-11-18 Thread Michael B. Smith
As it says: the server authentication certificate must be issued to the FQDN of 
the computer on which your AD LDS instance is running.

That's the internal FQDN. If you want to use it externally, you are going to 
need something that does SSL termination and URL rewriting. Such as ISA or TMG.

Subject: LDAPS Setup question

Hi Chaps,

I'm trying to get LDAP over SSL set up on a Windows 2008 AD server. Before I 
order the SSL cert, I just want to check. The docs at the MS site say;

When you request the certificate, specify the fully qualified domain name 
(FQDN) of the computer on which your AD LDS instance is running as the 
identifying name for the certificate. In other words, the server authentication 
certificate must be issued to the FQDN of the computer on which your AD LDS 
instance is running. 

Now, we want to use LDAPs both internally and externally. Am I right in 
thinking we can order a cert with the FQDN of ldap.mydomain.com and as long as 
that domain resolves to the LDAP/AD server both externally and internally it 
will be accepted? Or should we get a multiple host SSL cert, as we do with 
Exchange 2xxx, and register the netbios, internal FQDN (server.mydomain.local) 
and the external FQDN (ldap.mydomain.com) ?

Re: MAK and MKS?

2010-11-18 Thread Jon Harris
Thanks guys I knew I had it wrong.  Yes KMS and I am proposing 2008 R2.  We
do the MAK now I am working on a proposal to use WDS as a stage one and
switch to KMS licensing as a stage two.  I think with the two of them in
place life for the Application and Help Desk staffs would be much easier to
deal with.

RE: Um, WTF?

2010-11-18 Thread Michael B. Smith
If you've never worked for an ISP, or acquired a CCNP (or higher), or worked 
for a telecommunications company - it's unlikely that you would've run into BGP 
or ASNs.

We all have our areas of expertise. Don't ask me to set up KMS, for example (to 
reference another ongoing thread on this mailing list). I know zero about it.

Re: Backup Solutions

2010-11-18 Thread Matthew W. Ross
Sorry I'm late to this discussion.

If you are not apposed to a linux backup server, I like BackupPC. File based 
backup with deduplication, Web interface, can backup client machines directly 
as well as the servers. Works with SMB, Rsync or SSH tunneled tar. Zero cost, 
and easy to install on Ubuntu. (just use the package manger and search for 
BackupPC.)

BackupAssist appears to be the most cost effective windows-only solution.

 Hi,
 
 
 Can anyone recommend a good value (i.e reasonably cheap), file-level

 Symantec Backup Exec 2010 and it is way out of our price range.

RE: Backup Solutions

2010-11-18 Thread Ken Schaefer
If you don't need to backup all the clients, then WHS might be an option.

Cluster level de-dupe. Image based restore (or file/folder if you want). Web 
based interface for accessing files outside the office (as well as a RDP proxy 
to the clients/servers). $600 or so if you want to buy it in a box (e.g. the 
HP MediaSmart).

Only problem: limited to 10 clients (your servers can be clients)

RE: LDAPS Setup question

2010-11-18 Thread Ken Schaefer
You sure about this? It seems to me that you just need a generic server 
authentication OID.

IN that case, the CN property in the cert just needs to match whatever FQDN is 
used to connect to the AD LDS instance. If that happens to be the same 
internally and externally, then there is no problem.

Same as other types of server authN certs (e.g. web servers)

Cheers

As it says: the server authentication certificate must be issued to the FQDN of 
the computer on which your AD LDS instance is running.

That's the internal FQDN. If you want to use it externally, you are going to 
need something that does SSL termination and URL rewriting. Such as ISA or TMG.

Subject: LDAPS Setup question

Hi Chaps,

I'm trying to get LDAP over SSL set up on a Windows 2008 AD server. Before I 
order the SSL cert, I just want to check. The docs at the MS site say;

When you request the certificate, specify the fully qualified domain name 
(FQDN) of the computer on which your AD LDS instance is running as the 
identifying name for the certificate. In other words, the server authentication 
certificate must be issued to the FQDN of the computer on which your AD LDS 
instance is running. 

Now, we want to use LDAPs both internally and externally. Am I right in 
thinking we can order a cert with the FQDN of ldap.mydomain.com and as long as 
that domain resolves to the LDAP/AD server both externally and internally it 
will be accepted? Or should we get a multiple host SSL cert, as we do with 
Exchange 2xxx, and register the netbios, internal FQDN (server.mydomain.local) 
and the external FQDN (ldap.mydomain.com) ?

What external source are you trying to connect with?  We run LDAPs

so they can make the connection.

Sounds right. I had some Cisco classes over 10 years ago and I remember RIP and 
IGRP. I should take another router class to freshen up.

One thing about IT, never a shortage of technology to learn! (says the guy who 
just built a TS gateway/web access server, TS broker, and 4 TS servers...).

RE: You guys ever do this?

2010-11-18 Thread Carl Houseman
Why do you need to buy $700 worth of ANOTHER 2008 Server OS ?

 

If the only purpose of that is to run a Hyper-V host on standby hardware,
just install the free Hyper-V server.

 

Carl

 

From: David Lum [mailto:david@nwea.org] 
Sent: Thursday, November 18, 2010 10:04 AM

Subject: You guys ever do this?

 

Back story: As I have discussed here earlier, I have a client that I was
going to effectively P2V a server onto itself, and one tool I was pointed at
was DISK2VHD.in tests I managed to get everything to look good, the DISK2VHD
system worked fine on a different Hyper-V host, but what I couldn't test was
Hyper-V on the system itself before blowing away the existing 2K3 OS.

 

Here's my oops: Back in April I contacted Dell and asked hey can this S/N
PowerEdge run 2008 R2?. They replied yep, just update the firmware. Last
Friday I flatten the machine, install 2008 R2 with no issues, but when I got
to add the Hyper-V role..the CPU does not support it, DAMN ME! What I did
was ASSumed that being able to run 2008 R2 also meant it could run Hyper-V,
but it can't...(insert forehead slapping DUH icon here). In my head I had
asked them about Hyper-V but looking back at my e-mails I only asked about
R2 and not Hyper-V. Anyone here do something like that, and how did you
remedy it?

 

I had been prepared for almost anything - including this - so the client is
operating fine but I didn't gain the 2nd Hyper-V host server I was hoping
for. They DO have another server that is Hyper-V capable but I'm not about
to ask them to fork out $700 more for ANOTHER 2008 Server OS, so I am seeing
if I can find it cheap (and legally) somewhere and out-of-pocket it.

Slmgr -dli all  test.txt   doesn't work either.
We're trying to see if the office 2010 key we entered is being accessed on the

 If you’ve never worked for an ISP, or acquired a CCNP (or higher), or
 worked for a telecommunications company – it’s unlikely that you would’ve
 run into BGP or ASNs.



 We all have our areas of expertise. Don’t ask me to set up KMS, for example
 (to reference another ongoing thread on this mailing list). I know zero

 system worked fine on a different Hyper-V host, but what I couldn’t test was
 Hyper-V on the system itself before blowing away the existing 2K3 OS.



 Here’s my oops: Back in April I contacted Dell and asked “hey can this S/N
 PowerEdge run 2008 R2?”. They replied “yep, just update the firmware”. Last
 Friday I flatten the machine, install 2008 R2 with no issues, but when I got
 to add the Hyper-V role….the CPU does not support it, DAMN ME! What I did
 was ASSumed that being able to run 2008 R2 also meant it could run Hyper-V,
 but it can’t...(insert forehead slapping “DUH” icon here). In my head I had
 asked them about Hyper-V but looking back at my e-mails I only asked about
 R2 and not Hyper-V. Anyone here do something like that, and how did you
 remedy it?



 I had been prepared for almost anything - including this - so the client
 is operating fine but I didn’t gain the 2nd Hyper-V host server I was hoping
 for. They DO have another server that is Hyper-V capable but I’m not about
 to ask them to fork out $700 more for ANOTHER 2008 Server OS, so I am seeing
 if I can find it cheap (and legally) somewhere and out-of-pocket it.

I can't tell you how it didn't throw some kind of red flag, but a
similar thing happened to me.  When I was buying my first home many
years ago, the credit check revealed that someone had used my SSN to get
a loan on which they defaulted.  As in this case, they didn't use my

multiple providers and they were only a 1 site, 100 user company.  Their

Error seizing schema master FSMO role in Win2003 AD

2010-11-18 Thread Mike Leone
So I am setting up a testing version of my domain, to practice upgrading
from Win2003 AD to Win2008 AD, by making a copy of my domain on my ESX
cluster. We have a parent and child domain structure. I have 1 DC in
each domain as a VM (each is a DNS server, but do *not* hold any FSMO
roles). So I made a copy of each, and then started the copy on a
separate virtual subnet on my ESX server (separate because it is not
tied to any physical adapters, so the only things it can talk to are the
other systems on this subnet). I changed the IP address to the new
subnet, and then went to seize FSMO roles, so I could make a working
copy of my domain, to play with.

(I've done this before, successfully, using VMs)

So I was able to seize 4 roles - domain naming master. infrastructure
master, PDC, RID master - in that order. All was well. Then I tried to
seize the schema master role, and got:


fsmo maintenance: seize schema master
Attempting safe transfer of schema FSMO before seizure.
ldap_modify_sW error 0x32(50 (Insufficient Rights).
Ldap extended error message is 2098: SecErr: DSID-03151D7D, problem
4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0

Win32 error returned is 0x2098(Insufficient access rights to perform the
operation.)
)
Depending on the error code this may indicate a connection,
ldap, or role transfer error.
Transfer of schema FSMO failed, proceeding with seizure ...
ldap_modify of SD failed with 0x32(50 (Insufficient Rights).
Ldap extended error message is 0005: SecErr: DSID-03151E04, problem
4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0

Win32 error returned is 0x5(Access is denied.)


And I don't know why, as I am using the domain administrator account,
which *is* a member of Domain Admins, Enterprise Admins, and Schema
Admins (I double-checked). And this DC is also a GC.

So I don't know why I am getting insufficient access rights. Those 2
things (group membership, GC) seem to be the common culprit, according
to searches).

Where to look next? Did I seize them in the wrong order or something?

 Not always.  I did some work a few years back for a company with multiple
 T1's, multiple providers and they were only a 1 site, 100 user company.
 Their business model dictated that they needed multiple paths...  On a 15
 site dual MPLS WAN, I run BGP as well.  It just depends on the needs.

 If you’ve never worked for an ISP, or acquired a CCNP (or higher), or
 worked for a telecommunications company – it’s unlikely that you would’ve
 run into BGP or ASNs.



 We all have our areas of expertise. Don’t ask me to set up KMS, for

Size isn't the main factor here.  It's usually a need for redundancy across
multiple sites or circuits.

I worked in a location with 100 users (but ~175 servers) and we used BGP to
manage our site redundancy between two office locations.

Re: Error seizing schema master FSMO role in Win2003 AD - RESOLVED

2010-11-18 Thread Mike Leone
Don't ask me to explain it, but I logged out of the domain admin
account, and logged in as another account (which is *also* in the Domain
Admins, Enterprise Admins, Schema Admins groups, exactly like the domain
administrator account).

And it worked perfectly, exactly as it should. Huh?

I had even waited up to an hour, re-trying the command, thinking it was
just the fact that it was trying to replicate (and couldn't). Weird.

Anyway, off to do the child domain (seizing schema *first* this time, I
think :-)), and then to do the metadata cleanup ...

Thanks

vipre: SVCHOST.EXE virus.

2010-11-18 Thread justino garcia
 Vipre did not detect it, or clean it. Anti-virus definitions were up to
date,  active scanner was running as well, so I’m a bit concerned the active
scanner didn’t pick it up.
The virus was still loading in his run command in the registry so I had to
uninstall Vipre and put my own copy of McAfee on his machine to get rid of
the virus.

Any ideas??

You have to remove the non-existant DCs. You can't DCPROMO them down
from being DCs, since they don't exist. :-) And you can't ignore them,
otherwise AD spends all it's time trying to re-connect and replicate
with its' lost brethren. So you have to tell AD to forget them.

Re: vipre: SVCHOST.EXE virus.

2010-11-18 Thread RichardMcClary
Personally, I'd prefer using AntiVirus 2010 over McAfee.

When you get things under control, could you please share with us what it 
was which tipped you off, what it was doing, etc?  I think many of us are 
curious now.

Interesting... My machine blue screened twice on me today, and another
user's machine gave him the BSOD as well. Makes me wonder if maybe we don’t
have something on our machines. I'll run a quick check on mine and see if I
find anything.

RE: vipre: SVCHOST.EXE virus.

2010-11-18 Thread Ralph Smith
I've seen on a few computers over the last couple of weeks where there is a 
file on the user's desktop called MSTSC.exe, and there are various executables 
scattered around in the user's profile with various names the same as or close 
to legitimate Windows files, including SVCHOST.EXE.
 
I sent samples to the VIPRE folks a few times - haven't heard anything back.  
In my case VIPRE active protection kept blocking the execution of the files, 
but didn't recognize them as threats when doing a full scan.  MalwareBytes 
found and cleaned a bunch of stuff, but the next time the computer was rebooted 
it was back.  Trend also saw them but couldn't remove them.  I've been wiping 
and re-imaging them.

It depends on the machine.  At various times we have used Norton Ghost, 
GhostImage, Drive Image XML and Acronis to create an image, so the appropriate 
tool is used to restore it.  When we set up a new computer we create an image 
of the clean install, and then use that if we need to reimage it in the future.

 Vipre did not detect it, or clean it. Anti-virus definitions 
were up to date,  active scanner was running as well, so I'm a bit concerned 
the active scanner didn't pick it up. 


The virus was still loading in his run command in the registry

2010-11-18 Thread Ralph Smith
Yes, that's it.  We had one workstation that had the fake Thinkpoint scan 
running, so apparently VIPRE AP didn't block it from executing on that one.
On every affected machine we have seen, looking at the browser history each 
user was on Facebook immediately prior to VIPRE AP reacting.  I continue to try 
to educate users about safe surfing, but I may have to block Facebook if VIPRE 
is unable to deal with it soon.

Subject: vipre: SVCHOST.EXE virus.

 

 Vipre did not detect it, or clean it. Anti-virus definitions were up to date,  
active scanner was running as well, so I'm a bit concerned the active scanner 
didn't pick it up. 


The virus was still loading in his run command in the registry so I had to 
uninstall Vipre and put my own copy of McAfee on his machine to get rid of the 
virus.   

 

Any ideas??

Yep, that is a driveby malware we have seen accordingly, it's the thinkpoint 
virus. 

 

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\hotfix.exe

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\dkfjasdfshd.bat

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\mstsc.exe

I've seen on a few computers over the last couple of weeks where there is a 
file on the user's desktop called MSTSC.exe, and there are various executables 
scattered around in the user's profile with various names the same as or close 
to legitimate Windows files, including SVCHOST.EXE.

 

I sent samples to the VIPRE folks a few times - haven't heard anything back.  
In my case VIPRE active protection kept blocking the execution of the files, 
but didn't recognize them as threats when doing a full scan.  MalwareBytes 
found and cleaned a bunch of stuff, but the next time the computer was rebooted 
it was back.  Trend also saw them but couldn't remove them.  I've been wiping 
and re-imaging them.

Yes, that's it.  We had one workstation that had the fake Thinkpoint scan
running, so apparently VIPRE AP didn't block it from executing on that one.

On every affected machine we have seen, looking at the browser history each
user was on Facebook immediately prior to VIPRE AP reacting.  I continue to
try to educate users about safe surfing, but I may have to block Facebook if
VIPRE is unable to deal with it soon.
