RE: Forefront client security

The Windows Defender in Win8 does the same as MSE (AFAICT), so it's just a 
name/rebranding exercise.

I think they are planning to at some point to kill of Security Essentials

that but I only have one running at home and so far I haven't seen anything bit

Maybe, or maybe just stand up some workstations VMs in a free ESXi

But perhaps that's VDI, too...

Questions...

o- Is this a new POS program, or is it currently in use elsewhere?
o- If it's currently in use, what are the back end and front end platforms - 
Windows, *nix?

If it's currently in use, and has a Windows front end client, you shoud 
probably talk withe the vendor regarding whether it plays nice on a TS server, 
or whether it will play nice with RDP.

If they don't know, then I'd explore whether it works via RDP first, and then 
test to see if you can make it run in a Windows VM, and then test an install on 
a TS server.

If it works via RDP, but not in a shared TS environment, then I'd probably see 
about getting multiple VMs running as targets for RDP.

RE: virtualization question

[Stephen Holtz]

Exactly!  Right now I am using an iPad RDP client to RDP into two unused POS 
terminals.  So I don’t need an RDP client.  So what you are saying is to set up 
a server with multiple VM’s all running the POS software?

Questions...

o- Is this a new POS program, or is it currently in use elsewhere?
o- If it's currently in use, what are the back end and front end
platforms - Windows, *nix?

If it's currently in use, and has a Windows front end client, you
shoud probably talk withe the vendor regarding whether it plays nice
on a TS server, or whether it will play nice with RDP.

If they don't know, then I'd explore whether it works via RDP first,
and then test to see if you can make it run in a Windows VM, and then
test an install on a TS server.

If it works via RDP, but not in a shared TS environment, then I'd
probably see about getting multiple VMs running as targets for RDP.

This doesn't strike me as a problem virtualization can solve, as stated.
As recommended, this is more of a Citrix or Terminal services issue and
whether you can do what you want is going to be governed by whether or not
the POS is capable of running concurrently in different sessions.  This
really should not be an issue, but you should be sure that the POS software
can do it in a Citrix or Terminal services environment.

RE: virtualization question

[Maglinger, Paul]

You’re wanting to run multiple VM servers on a single host, one for each iPad, 
and then RDP into that VM using the iPad?
The multiple VMs are feasible, and accessing from RDP is certainly possible.  I 
don’t know about a RDP client for iPads though.

I would like multiple iPads accessing the POS system software.  Each iPad would

Not taking credit cards.  We use member numbers to charge.  The pos server is

Re: virtualization question

[Jonathan Link]

This doesn't strike me as a problem virtualization can solve, as stated.
As recommended, this is more of a Citrix or Terminal services issue and
whether you can do what you want is going to be governed by whether or not
the POS is capable of running concurrently in different sessions.  This
really should not be an issue, but you should be sure that the POS software
can do it in a Citrix or Terminal services environment.

OK, I will put that to my boss. I seriously doubt he will agree to it,
and I will have to try for HA on the connection broker / web access.

I am guessing that each component should be isolated - by which I
mean, the session host should *only* be the session host, and not also
the web access or connection broker. So I would want, at minimum, 1
connection broker, 1 web access, and multiple session hosts. I imagine
I can remove the connection broker and web access from the session
host without issue, as long as I have added a broker and web access
server ahead of time? More - should I?

I have added a 2nd Win2012 server, and added it as a web access
server, so now it shows 2 - the web access server, and the original
server which is also the session host and connection broker.

And if I can remove the broker and web access from the session host,
where do I connect to - do I put the web URL of the web access server
into a client web browser, or do I put the web URL of the broker
server in the client web browser?

I have noticed the lack of concern for privacy, and IMHO those who
don't currently cherish their privacy are at risk for grave upset when
it gets violated in new and peculiar ways, which I expect will happen
more frequently as time goes by...

[Ziots, Edward]

If POS terminal is taking CC information then your IPAD's and the Wireless 
Network and the system that holds the POS Software is in scope for PCI, 
something you might want to think about.  Along with having to store and 
encrypt that CC data until it gets to the upstream acquiring bank...

Also transmitting of PCI data needs to be encrypted and best to isolate to 
reduce scope,

Food for thought.

If I remember correctly, the Voyager radio is about 25 watts. With good

However, from 11 billion miles away, as SC says, that takes something with the

Re: DPM and LTO6?

[Kurt Buff]

I reached out to MSFT contacts as well, and just received word back from them.

There are no LTO6 units that are certified with DPM.

So, we're going with LTO5. We're getting a Quantum unit that has 25
slots, and because it's the end of the quarter, they're throwing in
another 15 slot license for free.

40 slots is huge overkill for us, but it has two drives, which I
require - I want to be able to do a restore while the backups are
writing to tape, and if nothing else, it'll be faster than a single
tape anyway...

RE: Advice on setting up a Win2012 RDS environment - Progress!

[Ken Cornetet]

We used to have that sort of mentality, but I've found over the years that, in 
general, HA options tend to create more down time than they are designed to 
eliminate. Personally, I'd recommend just doing an occasional clone of your web 
server and broker (they don't have any critical volatile information), which 
you probably want to do anyway for DR purposes.

You are correct about the physical host. But I am speaking of the guest. I am 
trying to avoid the possibility of the web server going down, and staying down, 
due to some Windows-related problem, or a service not coming up properly. 
Things like that happen, you know. :-) And if that happens, I have no HA, and 
we're down (well, no new connections can be made).

With a second web server in a load balanced configuration, that possibility 
goes away.

When I was a teenager and a ham radio operator we would have fun by

If I remember correctly, the Voyager radio is about 25 watts. With good
antennas, that is easily enough for EVM space, except during
conjunctions. However, from 11 billion miles away, as SC says, that
takes something with the sensitivity of the DSN.

RE: RT devices?

[Art DeKneef]

It depends on what you mean by managing RT devices or what you need. I'm
curious why you think per user isn't good? I don't see the difference but I
am probably missing something.

 

As Tobie mentioned, you do have the System Center on premise option with the
Intune add-in. So you have the choice of managing the devices either way.
You're using Intune to manage the devices through the cloud. Granted it is
an additional expense but you are able to keep tabs on mobile devices easy
than before I think.

The issue I have with managing RT devices is that they have changed the

Microsoft's strategy was to offer both an on premise and cloud offering and
give the costumer the option

Also, where are you gonna find 35 year old documentation, to figure
out where and how you can exploit it? :-) These days, the data stream
is probably encrypted, and maybe has some sort of authentication
handshake first. There may be something similar back then - you
wouldn't want the Russians to break in and jam your signals or
whatever, even back then.

In case you haven’t noticed, privacy is becoming history. The current young 
generation by and large expects to be able to find out where there friends and 
family are, where they eat and shop, and where they work, and they also have no 
problems sharing their own information with people. As these people become 
older and enter the corporate world, they will expect to know quite a bit about 
you whether or not your resume is any good, and they will likely influence 
company rules…

 

The added twist is just by having family on social media, your information 
becomes public “I went to my dad’s 40th birthday party yesterday, not too far 
from the house he was born in”. Presto, your age, date and place of birth given 
up in one sentence by someone else.

 

In many ways I see keeping privacy in the same vein as not having a car or a 
phone. You can do it, but it takes a concerted effort and a specific lifestyle 
to pull it off. (Oddly, I didn’t have this view until I went to a lunch/seminar 
that was all about security yesterday!).

 

I’m sure when those first came out there were people who said “who needs such a 
thing!”. I went without a smartphone longer than many folks, but to be 
relevant/competitive in my field it became necessary to get one (although I 
still turn off location services except for the specific times I need them) and 
I am better off for it as it saves me a lot of time vs. if I were to be without 
it. 

 

Heck cellphones are now being used to inform different service providers 
traffic densities, average speeds, etc. so their mapping software can tell you 
how to avoid traffic. Big brother is here, the difference is it’s not like The 
Truman Show because the participants are also getting the benefits of said 
information.

 

With social media you might not have to look for a new job, it might find you. 
I can see in a few years the conversation being “Remember when we had so send 
resume’s out? How lame!”.

RE: Folder redirection questions

[Miller Bonnie L .]

GPO should be good for your redirection, but to not include certain file types 
will need another method.  For blocking PSTs, you need to probably combine 
having your users save them locally to a non-"my documents" location, and then 
implement FSRM (File Server Resource Manger), which is part of the Windows File 
server role, to add a file screen that blocks *.pst files from your redirected 
location on the server.  You may also want to use FSRM to maintain a quota 
limit of some kind or block other unwanted file types.

Temp files are a tough one, as many apps want to put their temps into the 
folder the file is being opened and worked on from (such as MS Office)--that 
may be better served with a cleanup script that runs from time to time on the 
servers, and then filter it out in your DFS replication (which should be the 
default).


From: Tom Miller [tominyorkt...@gmail.com]
Sent: Friday, March 22, 2013 6:41 AM
To: NT System Admin Issues
Subject: Folder redirection questions

We have a project to enable folder redirection here.  The goal is to redirect 
anything saved on the local \My Documents to the user's home folder.  I'd 
exclude the normal temp files and junk as well as PST files, since users tend 
to have huge PST files saved locally.  (We archive mail via an appliance so if 
a PST were not accessible we could use that.)

Most desktops are Windows 7.  Servers are Windows 2008 R2.  I will probably 
create a DFS share to replicate the shares between our sites.  We have a number 
of users who travel to and from our various sites.  We also have a number of 
sales staff who connect via VPN but are rarely at one of our offices.

Any suggestions for this sort of scenario?  Any third party products to 
recommend or is GPO satisfactory?  We may use a remote backup method for our 
sales folks (something like CrashPlan) instead of folder redirection for them.

Thanks,
Tom

Can you exclude temp files from a redirected folder using just a GPO? Maybe you

You are correct about the physical host. But I am speaking of the
guest. I am trying to avoid the possibility of the web server going
down, and staying down, due to some Windows-related problem, or a
service not coming up properly. Things like that happen, you know. :-)
And if that happens, I have no HA, and we're down (well, no new
connections can be made).

With a second web server in a load balanced configuration, that
possibility goes away.

RE: OT: Career and Social Media

[David Lum]

In case you haven’t noticed, privacy is becoming history. The current young 
generation by and large expects to be able to find out where there friends and 
family are, where they eat and shop, and where they work, and they also have no 
problems sharing their own information with people. As these people become 
older and enter the corporate world, they will expect to know quite a bit about 
you whether or not your resume is any good, and they will likely influence 
company rules…

The added twist is just by having family on social media, your information 
becomes public “I went to my dad’s 40th birthday party yesterday, not too far 
from the house he was born in”. Presto, your age, date and place of birth given 
up in one sentence by someone else.

In many ways I see keeping privacy in the same vein as not having a car or a 
phone. You can do it, but it takes a concerted effort and a specific lifestyle 
to pull it off. (Oddly, I didn’t have this view until I went to a lunch/seminar 
that was all about security yesterday!).

I’m sure when those first came out there were people who said “who needs such a 
thing!”. I went without a smartphone longer than many folks, but to be 
relevant/competitive in my field it became necessary to get one (although I 
still turn off location services except for the specific times I need them) and 
I am better off for it as it saves me a lot of time vs. if I were to be without 
it.

Heck cellphones are now being used to inform different service providers 
traffic densities, average speeds, etc. so their mapping software can tell you 
how to avoid traffic. Big brother is here, the difference is it’s not like The 
Truman Show because the participants are also getting the benefits of said 
information.

With social media you might not have to look for a new job, it might find you. 
I can see in a few years the conversation being “Remember when we had so send 
resume’s out? How lame!”.

That Dilbert is spot-on whether we like it or not.

Folder redirection questions

[Tom Miller]

We have a project to enable folder redirection here.  The goal is to
redirect anything saved on the local \My Documents to the user's home
folder.  I'd exclude the normal temp files and junk as well as PST files,
since users tend to have huge PST files saved locally.  (We archive mail
via an appliance so if a PST were not accessible we could use that.)

Most desktops are Windows 7.  Servers are Windows 2008 R2.  I will probably
create a DFS share to replicate the shares between our sites.  We have a
number of users who travel to and from our various sites.  We also have a
number of sales staff who connect via VPN but are rarely at one of our
offices.

Any suggestions for this sort of scenario?  Any third party products to
recommend or is GPO satisfactory?  We may use a remote backup method for
our sales folks (something like CrashPlan) instead of folder redirection
for them.

Thanks,
Tom

Re: OT: Career and Social Media

[Andrew S. Baker]

Well said, Ken.

As much of a meritocracy as IT is believed to be, people generally get
jobs/work/contracts/opportunities because they know someone or because
someone knows about them.

These tools make the work of networking that much easier.

How you use the tools will dictate how much time they steal or what benefit
they facilitate.  (Any theft of time by social media requires you to be a
willing accomplice)

Privacy is certainly a concern, but that's pretty much an endemic problem
today across all facets of technology.  It's not getting better, that's for
sure -- at least not in the short term -- so everyone has to manage that
the best way they can without losing all the benefits of the tools
available.

Either way, people need to see where the trends are going so that they
aren't surprised when things shift on them.   I notice that many ignore all
of these avenues until after some employment unpleasantness takes place,
then they're hurrying to catch up.

No reason not to control your own destiny up front...

Re: RT devices?

[Andrew S. Baker]

RT devices aren't intended to be business devices, so there's no focus on
business support options.

Not that they can't be used for business, if one is so inclined, but that's
not the intended market.

RE: Since we are on the subject of malware and hacking

[Ziots, Edward]

Thanks Dave,

Next time I will show more of the packet level stuff I was finding, since its 
every day that I am looking and dealing with malware like I said there tends to 
be similarities. Especially lately has been multiple samples of postal receipt 
malware that is bypassing the AV filters.
