Hold on..

NLB is just dumb load balancing. No different than an F5, CoyotePoint, 
whatever. It's just dumber because it has no application awareness. 

When was the last time you tried F5?

RE: Issue with Service and Login Account on NT 4.0 SP6a machine, ideas?

2010-11-30 Thread Ziots, Edward
Auditing is turned on and not catching much accordingly. Only idea I
have atm is netlogon debugging.  Either that or they are going to have
to upgrade to a supported OS.

Do you have auditing turned on to see what errors may be occurring on
either the local machine or the domain controller when the service tries
to start?

 

True enough about GPOs, but NT 4.0 did have its own system policies.

NT 4.0 will not obey GPO's to my knowledge, since it has no knowledge of
them.  Account in question is a Domain Account.  I am not assuming that
the account was deleted and re-created accordingly.  There is only two
possibilities I can see at the moment ( either BAD password) or
something else with authentication I am missing. ( I will check the
usr-rights, for logon locally, and logon as service).

Did you check to see if the account password has expired, or the account
is locked out?  Does the account have the login as a service user
right?

 

Are there group policies that may be affecting the ability of the
account to be granted the correct user rights?

 

Is the account in question a domain user account, or a computer account?

 

Note also that just because an account exists does not mean the account

that its previous permissions (such as login as a service) are gone.

Subject: Issue with Service and Login Account on NT 4.0 SP6a machine,
ideas?

 

All, 

 

Having a problem on one of my servers, that I am trying to disprove that
it's a domain based problem. It's a Windows 2008 R2 FFL/DFL domain. The
server in question is Windows NT 4.0 SP6a. It has a service that runs
under the context of domain account. Which out of the blue has popped
the following error: (Note this is a vendor supplied system)

 

Cannot set the startup parameters for the CVSMDM_000 service.  Error

1057 occurred.  The account name is invalid or does not exist.

 

The account its trying to use exists. I did a nltest /Server:SERVERNAME
/SC_Query:DOMAINNAME ( which returns success, so I know the secure
channel is fine). 

 

Any other ideas, only other idea I could think of was to reset the
password for that account and retry or make up a new account and try
that one. 

 

Maybe even a possibility of putting entries in the LMHOSTS to point
directly to a Domain Controller accordingly, for this server, but again
don't think that is the problem if I can verify the secure channel is
good with the NLTEST command then we can eliminate that. 

 

But not sure whatelse to take a look at to see what might be the issue. 

 

Any ideas, feel free to chime in.

RE: Network Load Balancing question ( Windows 2003 R2)

2010-11-30 Thread Michael B. Smith
Ahhh I'm solution oriented. Not vendor oriented. :-)

If you have 80K seats to load balance, then the big boys are probably what 
you want/need: F5, Cisco ACE, Citrix NetScaler, etc.

If you have 2K seats to load balance, then Coyote Point / Kemp Technologies / 
Barracuda are more likely in your price range and meet your feature 
requirements.

If you have 500 seats to load balance (for HA/FT normally), then NLB is 
probably OK.

It all depends on the customer, the budget, and the application requirements.

$300 Data Recovery - 2 Good 2 B True?

2010-11-30 Thread Dennis Krebs
http://www.datahounds.com/

We have a user that wants their defective hard drive recovered. They probably 
won't be willing to pay the tradition rate to do this. I found a link to a 
company called Data Hounds which apparently does recoveries for $300. It almost 
sounds too good to be true. I was wondering if anybody has experience with this 
vendor.

RE: Serial console sessions

USB-to-serial dongle.

Subject: Serial console sessions

 


Greetings! 

I am having difficulties setting a network device back to factory
defaults.  Perhaps a console session would help me.  Thing is, anymore,
is there a solution for the fact that many workstations (especially
laptops) no longer have serial ports for their connections? 

Thanks...

Just a thought, but most 'network devices' will default to DHCP if you reset
them back to factory defaults. If this is the case, then reset it...find it
in your pool, then Telnet to it.

Re: Serial console sessions

2010-11-30 Thread RichardMcClary
1. Not this one

2. Pushing the reset button in the documented sequence does not seem to 
work, so I'm wanting a console session to look at it

I've found a desktop system with a serial port, and I have a cable long 
enough to reach it

Thanks!

NEW HALLMARK POST CARD VIRUS

I just received a note from a good friend who tells me that there is a new
powerful virus that destroys the zero sector on the hard drive. Anyone know
anything about this virus. Apparently it is not a hoax.

One large caveat is writ large on their site.  The $299 is for consumer

around and try and hold business data hostage.

RE: HTTP Post DDOS Attack tools released

2010-11-30 Thread Ziots, Edward
The tools are available from the OWASP site in GUI form 
http://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_HTTP_Post_Tool

More information on the aspects of it:
http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/456339/30/0/threaded

And Rsnake wrote an attack tool in 2009 called Slowloris that did this exact 
thing. 

This was Apache and M$ reponses per the OWASP slide deck, which can be obtained 
at the same site as the HTTP Post DDOS tool.  

Apache: “What you described is a known attribute (read: flaw) of the
HTTP protocol over TCP/IP. The Apache HTTP project declines to treat this
expected use-case as a vulnerability in the software.”

MS: “While we recognize this is an issue, this issue does not meet our
bar for the release of a security update. We will continue to track this issue
and the changes I mentioned above for release in a future service pack.”

I would assume that APACHE on your I Series is probably vulnerable, since it’s 
a flaw with the protocol itself that is being exacerbated.

They can still run no-install-needed software and software that installs
itself into the user profile e.g. Chrome.

 

The answers to the original question are any or all of the following.

 

a) use a gateway or proxy server that blocks the unwanted downloads.

b) use WSUS to distribute Microsoft updates.

c) use software restriction policies to white-list allowed software

 Hey, Carl,



 Thanks for providing a useful, rational response to the OP’s question.

 They can still run no-install-needed software and software that installs
 itself into the user profile e.g. Chrome.



 The answers to the original question are any or all of the following.



 a) use a gateway or proxy server that blocks the unwanted downloads.

 b) use WSUS to distribute Microsoft updates.

 c) use software restriction policies to white-list allowed software

 If they can't install it, what good is downloading it then?

Hotmail SPAM

2010-11-30 Thread James Hill
Sorry if this has already been discussed, I've been off list for a while.

We are seeing a large amount of SPAM recently coming from legitimate Hotmail 
accounts.  Presumably a bot out there somewhere has been mining passwords off 
unsecure forums etc where people have used the same password.  I've actually 
had a couple of friends get hit with it which is unusual.

Just curious if others have noticed this increase.

James.

FilterManager Event ID 3

2010-11-30 Thread Christopher Bodnar
I've got a W2K8 Std x64 box that is getting a ton of these errors in the 
event log and has crashed a few times over the past few months. I'm really 
having a problem finding any info on this particular issue on the web, the 
things I have found seem to be  targeting VM's or backup issues, neither 
of which is relevant in our situation. 

I'd like to think that this is a hardware issue, since this is one of our 
SCCM servers, all of which are configured identically, and this is the 
only one experiencing the issue. I'm tempted to swap out the HBA just to 
see if that fixes the problem.

RE: FilterManager Event ID 3

2010-11-30 Thread VIPCS
Can you swap the drives between servers and see if the problem continues?

 

If the problem continues on original server -- hardware on server
(excluding hard drives)

If the problem continues on swapped server -- software or hard drives
themselves

 

Sincerely,

 

Jeffrey and Mary Jane Harris

I've got a W2K8 Std x64 box that is getting a ton of these errors in the
event log and has crashed a few times over the past few months. I'm really
having a problem finding any info on this particular issue on the web, the
things I have found seem to be  targeting VM's or backup issues, neither of
which is relevant in our situation. 

I'd like to think that this is a hardware issue, since this is one of our
SCCM servers, all of which are configured identically, and this is the only
one experiencing the issue. I'm tempted to swap out the HBA just to see if
that fixes the problem.

RE: Hotmail SPAM

2010-11-30 Thread VIPCS
Jeffrey did that for a user once, who left the organization he was
supporting, but wanted any incoming mail forward.  Unfortunately, Jeffrey
neglected to verify that the destination server was available.  You can
guess the rest - bounced mail messages were reforwarded, resulting in more
bounced messages.

 

(Can you say ping - pong?)

 

Sincerely,

 

Jeffrey and Mary Jane Harris

I can set an auto-forward rule for you.  Don't want you to feel left out,
especially during the holidays.

I'm not seeing any increase from Hotmail. Maybe I'm just flying under the
radar.

Subject: Hotmail SPAM

 

Sorry if this has already been discussed, I've been off list for a while.

 

We are seeing a large amount of SPAM recently coming from legitimate Hotmail
accounts.  Presumably a bot out there somewhere has been mining passwords
off unsecure forums etc where people have used the same password.  I've
actually had a couple of friends get hit with it which is unusual.

 

Just curious if others have noticed this increase.

 

James.
