Subject: UAG now not working

So, DA/UAG worked yesterday, and I brought a laptop home and used it
for a couple of hours last night, but since then I've been testing
DA/UAG at work, one part of which was rebooting the UAG server to see
what would happen, and after rebooting, the UAG server broke. The DCA
utility on the clients shows that DA is broken.

Oddly enough, though, I can put a laptop outside the network, and ping
internal hosts and get directory listings of my file server and
connect to internal web sites, all of which are Win2k3 machines. So, I
poked around a bunch, and found the following:

First thing I noticed is that the web site I put up on it for IPHTTPS
was just gone. Not in IIS at all, just gone. I've recreated the web
site, and it keeps disappearing, with and without reboots. It seems to
be time dependent, though I'm not sure of that.

I looked in the event logs, and find in the System log a set of three
events that seem to be connected with the IPHTTPS web site
disappearing:

  15300 for HttpEvent saying:
  SSL Certificate Settings deleted for Port : 67.xxx.yyy.zzz443 .
and
 15300 for HttpEvent saying:
  SSL Certificate Settings deleted for Port : 0.0.0.0:6002 .
and
 15301 for HttpEvent saying:
  SSL Certificate Settings created by an admin process for
Port : 0.0.0.0:6002 .

In the Application log I found a couple of these that probably aren't
related, but might be worth mentinoing - I'm not running an NLB
configuration, it's a single box for this pilot project:

 23474 for Microsoft Forefront TMG Control saying:
  Forefront TMG detected Windows Filtering Platform filters
that may cause policy conflicts on the server G1. The following
providers may define filters that conflict with the Forefront TMG
firewall policy: UAG-DA NLB.

In the Security log *many* of the following, starting with my DCs
immediately after booting, then other machines:

 4653 for IPSec Main Mode
  Text in this varies by computer.

I'm guessing that the IPSec failure audits are the root cause, but my
googling is not revealing any magic sauce for me.

Does the collective oracle have anything for this poor supplicant?

You can pin and zero memory in .NET if you really want to, but the
point I was trying to make is that SecureString doesn't address the
problem of key management.  It is however useful for 1) keeping the
secret encrypted at rest from other processes and useless in a memory
dump (yeah, unless something is actively using it and turned it back
into a BSTR for a moment), and 2) preventing most users from errantly
writing the password into a logfile or serializing it into a web
service response, etc..

  That seems icky.

  Conventional wisdom is that one does any security-sensitive storage
in memory pages "locked" in RAM.  I.e., you allocate some memory, and
then tell the OS not to write that memory to disk for any reason.
When done, zero the page(s).

  Reading the docs for SecureString, I can only presume .NET doesn't
have a way to do that.  Pity.

  Encrypting storage that a program has to use contemporaneously is --
as was noted on this list recently -- generally pointless, as the
program has to keep the decrypt key around cleartext in the same
storage.

Feed in the characters to SecureString one at a time (string is an
IEnumerable of char)... the design reason for this is that the entire
string should not exist in managed memory at any point, or else there
will be non-secure copies floating around.

In practice, it is very difficult *not* to have the string in
cleartext unless you're prompting the user for char-level interactive
input, while being careful not to call any methods that would read
that input as a string.

I think MBS had a blog post about this specific to Powershell not too long ago.

read-host code?

It would be nice to pull off something like:

param
(
If (!($Force)) { [Parameter(Mandatory = $True)] }
[string]$Path,
[Switch]$Force

Anything equally simple like this exist?

Re: GPP Drives Maps Not Updating Or Replacing

Can you unmap all the drives at logoff or set them as non-persistent in the

Thought I would inquire with the hive mind on this one.

Whenever we make a change to a drive albeit a change in path or label
whether we have the drive set to replace or to update the changes are never
made. We have to disconnect the drive and then logon to get the changes.
Has anybody else run into this and found a solution? Our DCs are 2008 and
2008R2. I thought maybe I could create a delete of the drive and place it
before the mapping of the drive but GP editor only  allows me to move the
delete job up one order slot. What are most of you doing fore drive mapping
these days? I really don't want to go back to Kixtart and my google-fu
isn't working well today :-\

Guys,  I'm back in the 'system admin' software game. I'm giving you a sneak
peek  of a new admin tool we are announcing this April called InstantRevert.

I had a fresh look at your current environment. Users are still your #1 
headache,
and you continue to get "It worked yesterday!" incomplete help desk tickets.
The next headaches are keeping your network secure without sufficient budget,
and you're coming in early, staying late, and working weekends.

Well, the last 18 months I have done research to find a tool that would solve
most of the above problems, and I think I have found it:
http://www.knowbe4.com/products/instant-revert/

Could you have a look and tell me what you think?

The cost per server is $220 but I am still figuring out the volume discounts for
workstations. Say you have 200 workstations you want to run this on, what
would you expect to have to pay per workstation?

You can answer to the list or answer me offline at 
s...@knowbe4.com

Thanks so much in advance !

Warm regards,

Stu

RE: Powershell parameters

[Michael B. Smith]

You'll have to use CmdletBinding and multiple parameter sets. It's not "simple" 
(I would consider it "advanced PowerShell") but it does what you want.

Subject: Powershell parameters

Is there any shortcut to specify mandatory parameters that can be conditionaly 
ignored if a switch is present without a slew of following test case's and 
read-host code?

It would be nice to pull off something like:

param
(
If (!($Force)) { [Parameter(Mandatory = $True)] }
[string]$Path,
[Switch]$Force
)

Anything equally simple like this exist?

Thanks!

RE: UAG configuration for DA - I'm testing it now...

[Heaton, Joseph@DFG]

We’ve just recently implemented DA here, as well.  The not being able to access 
IPv4 devices was a pain, but as you've mentioned in follow-up posts, it can be 
resolved.  Love being able to just power up my laptop from home and immediately 
access the network though, without having to go through VPN.

RE: Need Your Feedback - New Product for Admins

[Michael B. Smith]

System Center 2012 - Configuration Manager does this. The feature is called 
"Compliance Settings" and is part of the "Assets and Compliance" module of SCCM.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682139.aspx

Note that this is only one of many things that SCCM does.

A managed client (which can be a server OS or a workstation OS or a [selected 
set of] phone OS) is USD $62 (retail).

A standard server license (which includes all the modules of System Center, not 
just SCCM) is USD $1,323 (retail, including software assurance).

Guys,  I'm back in the 'system admin' software game. I'm giving you a sneak
peek  of a new admin tool we are announcing this April called InstantRevert.

I had a fresh look at your current environment. Users are still your #1 
headache,
and you continue to get "It worked yesterday!" incomplete help desk tickets.
The next headaches are keeping your network secure without sufficient budget,
and you're coming in early, staying late, and working weekends.

Well, the last 18 months I have done research to find a tool that would solve
most of the above problems, and I think I have found it:
http://www.knowbe4.com/products/instant-revert/

Could you have a look and tell me what you think?

The cost per server is $220 but I am still figuring out the volume discounts for
workstations. Say you have 200 workstations you want to run this on, what
would you expect to have to pay per workstation?

You can answer to the list or answer me offline at 
s...@knowbe4.com

Thanks so much in advance !

Warm regards,

Stu

He left Sunbelt (now GFI) and started KnowBe4.

RE: Need Your Feedback - New Product for Admins

[Stu Sjouwerman]

AH, let me explain. When I started KnowBe4, the main thing I decided to start 
focusing on was end-user training 
against social engineering, and that is still the flagship product we sell. 
Then I continued doing my research and
ran into a product I believe in, and OEMed it.  So InstantRevert is an existing 
tool that I slapped my KnowBe4 
label on, and will sell and support it as our own. (It's a U.S. company that 
built that tool by the way.)

Hope that clarifies,

Stu

This appears to indicate you went out and looked at tools from all vendors in 
the market place, and are recommending this one.

This appears to indicate you have an email address in the organization that 
sells the tool you are recommending.

Are you affiliated with this company?

Yup, same category, but InstantRevert does things real-time. Will work on a 
comparison document !!!

(Linux is on the road map for this year)

Thanks

Hey Stu,

This looks like it's in the same category as Tripwire Enterprise. Any 
comparison document out there? Also it doesn't look like it's cross platform 
which a lot of organizations will need for a product like this.

Guys,  I'm back in the 'system admin' software game. I'm giving you a sneak
peek  of a new admin tool we are announcing this April called InstantRevert.

I had a fresh look at your current environment. Users are still your #1 
headache,
and you continue to get "It worked yesterday!" incomplete help desk tickets.
The next headaches are keeping your network secure without sufficient budget,
and you're coming in early, staying late, and working weekends.

Well, the last 18 months I have done research to find a tool that would solve
most of the above problems, and I think I have found it:
http://www.knowbe4.com/products/instant-revert/

Could you have a look and tell me what you think?

The cost per server is $220 but I am still figuring out the volume discounts for
workstations. Say you have 200 workstations you want to run this on, what
would you expect to have to pay per workstation?

You can answer to the list or answer me offline at 
s...@knowbe4.com

Thanks so much in advance !

Warm regards,

Stu

RE: Need Your Feedback - New Product for Admins

[Richard McClary]

Strange you would need to ask this question!

Stu started SunbeltSoftware as well as this (and other forums).  He continues 
to monitor and moderate it.

He left Sunbelt (now GFI) and started KnowBe4.

My guess is, there was a research effort involved, and he/they purchased this 
product.

Anyway, if anyone has the right to post a "commercial message" to this list, it 
would be Stu.

This appears to indicate you went out and looked at tools from all vendors in 
the market place, and are recommending this one.

> You can answer to the list or answer me offline at s...@knowbe4.com

This appears to indicate you have an email address in the organization that 
sells the tool you are recommending.

Are you affiliated with this company?

Hey Stu, 

This looks like it's in the same category as Tripwire Enterprise. Any 
comparison document out there? Also it doesn't look like it's cross 
platform which a lot of organizations will need for a product like this.

Guys,  I'm back in the 'system admin' software game. I'm giving you a 
sneak
peek  of a new admin tool we are announcing this April called 
InstantRevert.

I had a fresh look at your current environment. Users are still your #1 
headache, 
and you continue to get "It worked yesterday!" incomplete help desk 
tickets.
The next headaches are keeping your network secure without sufficient 
budget,
and you're coming in early, staying late, and working weekends. 

Well, the last 18 months I have done research to find a tool that would 
solve 
most of the above problems, and I think I have found it:
http://www.knowbe4.com/products/instant-revert/

Could you have a look and tell me what you think?

The cost per server is $220 but I am still figuring out the volume 
discounts for 
workstations. Say you have 200 workstations you want to run this on, what 
would you expect to have to pay per workstation? 

You can answer to the list or answer me offline at s...@knowbe4.com

Thanks so much in advance ! 

Warm regards,

Stu
