  I'm not talking private WAN, I'm talking VPN.  Using the public Internet to

RE: Remote Desktop App recommendation?

2011-09-22 Thread Ralph Smith
Thanks all.  I purchased the Wyse app - it was easy to set up and works
great  with my 2003 and 2008 servers. I don't actually have a Remote
Desktop Gateway set up yet so i didn't test that.  There is a place in
the client to set it up, but Wyse calls that feature "experimental".  It
also includes a VNC client, which could be useful.

Supports RD Gateway.  I haven't used it for a while(7 months +) but
hopefully the performance has improved.  It was very slow on an iphone
and slow on an ipad at the time.  Particularly when compared to
comparable products for Android.

 

Always found it amusing that you can get apps for Android, ios etc that
support RD Gateway but nothing exists for OSX.

Subject: Remote Desktop App recommendation?

 

It seems like I saw this asked and answered here before but I can't find
the thread:

Anybody using a Remote Desktop app for iPad 2 that you can recommend
that works with Windows Server 2003, 2008 R2 and Remote Desktop Gateway?

 

My CEO was just issued an iPad through another agency for which she
serves on the board, and she wants to use it this way.  This is the
first time I've actually touched an iPad.  I downloaded the free Remote
Desktop Lite, but apparently Mochasofts's remote desktop products can't
be used with Windows Servers.  Read a bunch of reviews and am
considering trying either Antecea Easy Connect or Wyse PocketCloud, but
there's a lot of choices and am hoping to get a trusted recommendation
from the list.

 

Thanks,

 

Ralph

Agreed with Ben on naming multiple NTP sources, so you're not hosed if
one of them goes wacky.  I've had best results by configuring like so:
0.us.pool.ntp.org
1.us.pool.ntp.org
2.us.pool.ntp.org

Alarmist no not to me.  I would tell them find or propose another way.  I
would look at a way maybe using a Linux machine that sync's (more or less)
what they need and then maybe put that where it could be seen from the web.
Others may have better ways to skin the cat.

  "Cloud" means whatever the speaker wants it to, these days.  :)  But
I don't even see this one as much of a stretch: If the provider has a
big net of distributed datacenters, and you're outsourcing some

  You have an IP address on your private side that duplicates their private 
net, and you're connected to them via some kind of VPN or other secure router, 
so you do a one-to-one static NAT between your private net and some other 
private net that they're not using.

  That's what I imagine, anyway.

  You have an IP address on your private side that duplicates their
private net, and you're connected to them via some kind of VPN or
other secure router, so you do a one-to-one static NAT between your
private net and some other private net that they're not using.

Cloud.
They explain further on that they have a lot of clients, some of whom may use 
the same private IP so to prevent "overlap" (in their words) they want our 
private IP natted.  I've done this with GE and Philips because they're so large 
they have over-lapping private IP's, too. However, when they requested it, they 
gave me another private ip.  For example, nat your 192.168.x.x to 192.168.40.1 
or something like that.
Apparently, this company doesn't do that but just uses the public IP as a 
reference.

Is the "new product" cloud based or internal? If internal I can't see why you 
would need your DCs/LDAP servers to be available to the public internet. If 
cloud based just open up to the IP of the server in the cloud to allow 
authentication.

And insist on LDAP over SSL.

We are getting a new product to report variances.  It is web-based but using

variance anonymously  but then directors can use their AD credentials to log in 
and report their findings.
My issue is that they want my two LDAP servers (which are my dc's) to have a

having my DC's be "visible" on the 'net.  From past experience of scanning my

a range of public IP's to scan for vulnerabilities.
Am I being unduly alarmist in my concern?  Do other organizations attach a

Thanks for any opinions you can give me.  I have no problem going back to the

Re: OT:Age Discrimination in IT

2011-09-22 Thread Daniel Evensen
I try to focus on the items that can be changed. My health, I  walk 50 miles a 
month, dye my hair, am the correct weight for my height, and I dress to fit the 
corporate environment, etc. I try to keep abreast of new technologies and I am 
going to start attending local user group meetings.  When I was at EDS now HP I 
remember being told they turned a applicant away because he did not dress like 
them and they felt uncomfortable.
I can not change the current National employment crisis, our countries 
viewpoints on age etc. They can figure your age by the dates of college 
graduation and employment history so that is one reason Andrews advice was spot 
on.

RE: App compatability continues

2011-09-22 Thread David Lum
Revisiting this one today, check this out.

Log into RDS as standard user, try to launch this app and get "Run-time error 
'70': Permission denied" (same error I have been battling).
Log that user off, make said user local admin, repeat the sequence fully 
expecting the error to go away. Nope, same error
Log in as myself, log into app as the standard user, application now works (as 
has been the case)
Log off, log in as standard user, launch app as standard user, application now 
works

Looking up the error, it appears to be a DCOM thing, but running the DCOM 
config tool doesn't help me as nothing jumps out at me to change...

Subject: RE: App compatability

Looking at this error further, it tells me just *opening* this key (operation 
is RegOpenKeyExA) is a problem for a standard user.
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\Parameters
"Fails as standard user and succeeded with full admin permissions"

With this app  - it's on RDS - if I log in as local admin and launch it, it 
runs fine. If a standard users tried to launch it any time after I have fired 
it up (and even if I have opened then closed it), it works too, so it's as if 
there's some dependent service that fires up when initially launched.

Bizarro info #2, rebooting the server after making the app work by me logging 
in...the app still works for a standard user even if I don't log in after the 
reboot, yet after some undetermined amount of time (days) it "breaks" again. 
This sucks because I can't break the app on demand. When it breaks what the 
users sees is they launch the app and they get "Error 20 - access is denied" 
after trying to login to it (credentials are specific to the app, which come to 
think of it talks to a DB on a different machine).

This app has a dependency on Mozilla, but the users have access to the relevant 
Mozilla folders.

Any guesses?

Using LUA Biglight which helps show what apps need permissions to run as a

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\Parameters

Solutions include "registry virtualization, the VirtualRegistry shim, as a last

RE: Remote Desktop App recommendation?

2011-09-22 Thread James Hill
http://itap-mobile.com/itap-rdp

Supports RD Gateway.  I haven't used it for a while(7 months +) but hopefully 
the performance has improved.  It was very slow on an iphone and slow on an 
ipad at the time.  Particularly when compared to comparable products for 
Android.

Always found it amusing that you can get apps for Android, ios etc that support 
RD Gateway but nothing exists for OSX.

Subject: Remote Desktop App recommendation?

It seems like I saw this asked and answered here before but I can't find the 
thread:
Anybody using a Remote Desktop app for iPad 2 that you can recommend that works 
with Windows Server 2003, 2008 R2 and Remote Desktop Gateway?

My CEO was just issued an iPad through another agency for which she serves on 
the board, and she wants to use it this way.  This is the first time I've 
actually touched an iPad.  I downloaded the free Remote Desktop Lite, but 
apparently Mochasofts's remote desktop products can't be used with Windows 
Servers.  Read a bunch of reviews and am considering trying either Antecea Easy 
Connect or Wyse PocketCloud, but there's a lot of choices and am hoping to get 
a trusted recommendation from the list.

Thanks,

Ralph

RE: OT:Age Discrimination in IT

2011-09-22 Thread Don Holstrom
I am 63, and seeing this. I don't even hear back from firms to whom I apply.
I have been a full, sole IT director with no help at two different firms for
a dozen years. But I don't want to lie or cut short my resume, don't want to
waste time interviewing at firms that don't want an oldster.

Amen and +1 on this.  Having gone through this two years ago most of the
applicants I was competing against were in the sub 35 age range and when
ever I got an interview the major questions were about pay and how low I
would go, and a lot less on skills.  I know at least one place I did not get
an interview but an insider told me they only hired those right out of
college or high school as they did not want anyone questioning the
management staff about decisions.

RE: LDAP\DC with a public IP

2011-09-22 Thread pdw1914

Cloud.
They explain further on that they have a lot of clients, some of whom may use 
the same private IP so to prevent "overlap" (in their words) they want our 
private IP natted.  I've done this with GE and Philips because they're so large 
they have over-lapping private IP's, too. However, when they requested it, they 
gave me another private ip.  For example, nat your 192.168.x.x to 192.168.40.1 
or something like that.  
Apparently, this company doesn't do that but just uses the public IP as a 
reference.

RE: LDAP\DC with a public IP

2011-09-22 Thread Brian Desmond
This comes up every now and then. Before the various federation technologies 
became prevalent it was a lot more common, but now not so much. Generally what 
you do is publish the LDAPS or GC/S port with an ACL that restricts source IPs. 
If the app can't failover between a couple of names then you have to put the 
DCs behind a load balancer.

If you really don't want to do it (which I can understand), an alternative is 
an AD LDS instance with bind proxies to your AD. Publish LDAPS from AD LDS and 
that will get you the desired effect.

Thanks,
Brian Desmond

RE: LDAP\DC with a public IP

2011-09-22 Thread Paul Hutchings
Are you sure that's what they're asking, and that they aren't simply asking to 
have ldap access from some external IP address range which you'd provide via an 
inbound firewall rule with an ACL and NAT so that only their specific IP 
addresses can authenticate?

Not sure I'd be too comfortable with either, but the latter is much better than 
the former IMO.

I don't think you're out of line in your concerns.

I'd take a look at ADFS, or some similar technology.

Having said that, I don't have any experience with this kind of thing,
and would also advise you to do the appropriate research before taking
my word that ADFS will solve your problem.

Re: Public time sources

Our network team has a multiple time sources.  All of our WIndows Systems
are pointed at the DC's and the PDC uses the in house network routers as the
time source.  The UNIX system uses them as well.  This way all of our
systems are consistent with each other.

  The ntp.org pools consist of thousands of autonomous donor systems.
Your level of assurance is proportional to the number of servers you
associate with.  Want a higher level of assurance?  Use more servers.
Anyone lying to you will quickly be seen as out-of-sync and discarded.

  The ntp.org pools consist of thousands of autonomous donor systems.
Your level of assurance is proportional to the number of servers you
associate with.  Want a higher level of assurance?  Use more servers.
Anyone lying to you will quickly be seen as out-of-sync and discarded.

  I've got my PDC Emulator configured to get its time from our
in-house Linux server running the reference implementation of NTP.
That Linux box is configured to sync to multiple pool.ntp.org servers:

server us.pool.ntp.org
server us.pool.ntp.org
server us.pool.ntp.org
server time.windows.com

  I list the same name three times because I'm running an older NTP
release which doesn't support the "pool" directive (which does the
same thing and better).

  I threw time.windows.com in there as a further diversity measure.

  By using multiple diverse time sources, NTP can better detect and
compensate for network latency and drift.  Accuracies within a few
seconds of "atomic" time are achievable this way.

  Microsoft's documentation on the Windows time service isn't clear on
if/how it handles multiple upstream NTP servers, and given MSKB 939322
I figured I wasn't likely to get an answer, and I already had NTP
configured on *nix, so that's the route I chose.

  Most likely, the author of the article was confused, too.  The tech
press is something akin to blind men describing an elephant.
Additionally, even original information is limited right now (they
haven't given their presentation yet).

  I've seen differing analyses so I'm not really sure, but this is one
that makes the most sense to me:

  The attack uses JavaScript injection (browser compromise) and a packet
sniffer (compromise of the network medium) to force a chosen-plaintext,
which can then be used to recover other plaintext from the SSL
ciphertext.  No man-in-the-middle is needed, although that may be a
force-multiplier.

A1. SSL is a chained block cipher.  Bytes on the wire are sent in
ciphered blocks, where each block's key is dependent on the previous
block.

B1. The user browses to a site like PayPal using SSL.  They authenticate
using their credentials.

B2. PayPal gives them an HTTP cookie containing some very large random
data.  This data serves to authenticate their login session.  The cookie
is a temporary shared secret granting access to their user account.

B3. The cookie from B2 is protected by SSL on the wire, and thus should
be secure against sniffing.

B4. The cookie is marked as "secure" in the browser's cookie jar, and
thus won't be given to non-SSL pages.

C1. The attack injects some JavaScript into the browser somehow.

C2. C1 constructs a URL that is just long enough to push all but the
first byte of the cookie

C3. C1 forces the browser to request C2 from the SSL site.

C4. The attack sniffs C3 from the wire.

C5. The attack now has a know-plaintext (the URL) and a single unknown
byte -- the first byte of the B2 cookie.

C6. The attack does crypto magic on C5, benefiting from the
known-plaintext, to decrypt the first byte of the B2 cookie.

C7. The attack repeats C2 through C6, shortening the URL each time, to
decrypt the rest of the cookie one byte at a time.

B5. After C7 is done, the attack now has the entire B2 authentication
cookie, and can masquerade as the user.

(from http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3016175)

  There may be scenarios other than B (auth cookie recovery) which could
also use the technique in C to gain valuable plaintext.  Or not; I
dunno.

  Again, I'm waiting for the full release, and good trusted third-party
analysis, before I really react.  I know enough about crypto to
understand a good analysis, but not enough to do it on my own.  There
are very likely aspects of this I'm not seeing.

Re: Remote Desktop App recommendation?

2011-09-22 Thread Daniel Rodriguez
The Wyse product does have an setting when you configure your connection for
the RD Gateway Server. Now, this is on my Dell Streak 7 which is an Android
based device. I would suggest that you go to the Wyse Pocket Cloud web page
and see if that is also an option for the iPad version.

Oh, and for grins, I have tried using the Dolphin Browser and was able to
login to our RD Website. But, when getting to the next screen, I couldn't
see anything, even though there should have been some icons on that screen.
Didn't get any errors. Besides that ActiveX Control should already be
included on XP SP3. If you are getting an error when trying to access your
RD Website, and it says that you need that ActiveX Control, it just may not
be Enabled.

In related news, how can you get an internet-based system to get to the RD

I used the Mochasoft app to remote to my Win 7 PC as a test and found it to be 
usable screen size wise, but my eyes ain’t what they used to be so I don’t 
think I’d be able to work like that consistently for any length of time.

Solved: Windows/Exchange/Networking routing question

2011-09-22 Thread Maglinger, Paul
Okay, we got this working.  We were able to set up a static route on both sides 
to get this to work.

On one side:

#route add 10.111.101.0 mask 255.255.255.0 10.121.100.254 metric 1 -p

On the other:

#route add 10.121.101.0 mask 255.255.255.0 10.111.100.254 metric 1 -p

Should've occurred to us earlier.

-Original Message-

Windows 2003 DC, migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010.  Setting up DAGs
and wanting to separate out the replication traffic from the rest of the
stuff.  We have 3 mailbox servers, two of which are at our site, the

Remote Desktop App recommendation?

2011-09-22 Thread Ralph Smith
It seems like I saw this asked and answered here before but I can't find
the thread:

Anybody using a Remote Desktop app for iPad 2 that you can recommend
that works with Windows Server 2003, 2008 R2 and Remote Desktop Gateway?

 

My CEO was just issued an iPad through another agency for which she
serves on the board, and she wants to use it this way.  This is the
first time I've actually touched an iPad.  I downloaded the free Remote
Desktop Lite, but apparently Mochasofts's remote desktop products can't
be used with Windows Servers.  Read a bunch of reviews and am
considering trying either Antecea Easy Connect or Wyse PocketCloud, but
there's a lot of choices and am hoping to get a trusted recommendation
from the list.

 

Thanks,

 

Ralph

RE: SSL hack

2011-09-22 Thread Guyer, Don
I don't even pretend to be a security expert by any means, I find this
article confusing.

It seems to be a high vulnerability, but when I read the sentence "It
has long been theorized that attackers can manipulate the process to
make educated guesses about the contents of the plaintext blocks." What
exactly are they saying here? Are these blocks originally encrypted? If
so, once they manage to decrypt them, how do they make these "educated
guesses"? Does it take minutes/hours/days to come up with a correct
guess?
