RE: SSL VPN options

[Rick Berry]

I don't disagree with the subsequent 'just use RAS' answers, but we have 
probably 30 ASA 55xx's in play across the USA and do similar things and don't 
really have issues.  Nor do we have issues with the Sonicwalls that we have 
doing same thing ... hit a webpage, authenticate via AD, click on a link for a 
UNC or RDP session, etc.

I don't think the statement about development is necessarily true either?  But 
I'd agree that the 'website' bits aren't updated as often as the rest of the 
appliance (anyconnect, firmware, etc).

Granted, we tend to use AnyConnect as our primary instead of the www parts ... 
but I suspect that your consistency issue is perhaps easily solved with a TAC 
ticket, if indeed it's a config issue?

On the 'other appliance' front, I do know that in our business we have a lot of 
Sonicwall SSL-VPN boxes sitting alongside ASAs and those also work well for us 
... probably about 10 sites where that's the case.  We tend to have occasional 
hardware issues with sonicwalls (fans, power supplies, maybe 3 RMAs over last 
two years) but never once have had to RMA an ASA.  I have had to purchase RAM 
for ASAs though to perform firmware updates to 8.3 and 8.4 series, which may or 
may not apply for you if firmware revs are part of the solution for your issue.

Subject: SSL VPN options

We are testing/playing with our ASA's SSL VPN. Our needs are simple, pop a RDS 
connection. But it needs to be easy and repeatable. I am less than thrilled 
with the ASA's SSL option. It seems to blow up on 64 bit browsers and is not 
very repeatable. Are others having better luck with it...any ideas on 
configuration that I might be missing. It does seem development and support on 
this feature from Cisco has dropped off and/or stopped.

Not opposed to going to another appliance on this. I just want a few users to 
be able to hit a link, auth via AD and fire an RDS session.

RE: dell servers

[Rick Berry]

Poweredge 520/620/720 can all approximate that range of servers.  We go through 
a lot of them, YMMV but we're happy with what we use and I prefer Dell support 
to HP support personally when it comes down to RMAs/issues.

I think all of the Poweredge can come with the 'Internal SD Module' which is an 
SD card snapin inside the chassis that is meant for virtualization boot from 
flash for ESXi/hyperv/insert vendor here.

I'm more familiar with HPs line of servers.  But in this case, I need a Dell

spec'd with 2 6-core procs at 80GB memory.   Is the 610/620 line a good
option and equivent to the HP DL360 line?  

Also, considering NOT having internal disks and instead running ESXi off USB

Is this SharePoint 2010? If so, do you have access to SharePoint workspace as

That will create an offline copy of your document libraries (and other

I'll preface this by saying it's all approved by legal entities involved ... 

Customer is declaring Chapter 7, yet has sharepoint information that needs to 
be dumped off to files and shared with a variety of stakeholders.  

I'm generalizing, but basically:

http://sharepoint/sites/site1 document content goes into folder site1
http://sharepoint/sites/site2 document content goes into folder site2

and there's about a bazillion /sites/insertname_here along with further nesting 
underneath each site with their own doc libraries. (by bazillion, I think I 
mean 'many dozens')

Is there a magical way to recursively dump all that out, even if it's one big 
sloppy pile of documents instead of something relatively organized into folders 
that reflect the 'sites' subdirectories?  I have tried a few tools via Google 
Fu (bamboo, spiefolder) but my kungfu is weak on sharepoint and there is a 
whole 'chapter 7' timing issue behind the scenes.

Bamboo seems to work, but I think I have to keep retargeting manually each 
/darn/subdirectory/site and it's maddening and pretty time consuming.  Wish I 
could figure out how to have it recursively troll through all of the 
subdirectories from http://sharepoint/* but believe I'm expecting the 
impossible in that regard.

I don't care about anything in sharepoint outside of the actual documents 
(word, pdf, excel mostly) ...

RE: Looking for Insight on Registrars

[Rick Berry]

I also dislike GoDaddy.  But if I'm going for *cheap* SSL, especially for UCC, 
then I'll invariably use www.certificatesforexchange.com which belongs to Simon 
Butler and which qualifies as a shameless (uncompensated) plug for his site ... 
which is a GoDaddy storefront.

I love Digicert for SSL, they're pricey but I also know their support staff by 
name.  But I'm a sucker for 'knowing my guy'  at any given vendor ... it's why 
I try to use D&H instead of Ingram Micro, but I digress. (Digicert came up here 
the other day on another topic, which long story short got an immediate and 
personal reaction from their CTO after he was made aware of my post via Mr. 
Brian Desmond & HRH Michael B Smith).

For registrars, we have a lot of our client base on EasyDNS and DynDNS and I 
love both.  At EasyDNS I also have a good sense of 'knowing the guys' when I 
have to interact with them.

You can install Hyper-V 2012 on a USB stick that presents as both a USB stick 
and as a hard drive. Otherwise, you have to go through a set of machinations.

What the problem is, most likely, is you need to load the PERC drivers. Put 
THEM on a USB stick and load drivers during the boot process from the USB stick.

I have a lab PE R900 that used to run ESXi 4.x off a USB stick with 8x146GB SAS 
drives on a single virtual disk ... tried to pave it and just redo it as a 
layer 1 Hyper-V 2012 server booting from the ISO to install, and it doesn't 
like the RAID partition regardless of how I present it?  Completely doesn't see 
the USB stick at all, 32GB puppy.  BIOS is up to date.

It sees the correct size, but regardless of it being blank or formatted (or set 
primary or whatever other DISKPART things I've tried) it doesn't want to 
install on it.

Nor does it wish to see the USB stick as a install target like ESXi does.

I googled around, didn't really see much to guide me but I may be completely 
missing the point (never did mess around with the prior version of Hyper-V as a 
straight hypervisor install like ESXi) ... so assuming I'm missing something 
basic and embarrassingly stupid like "you can't install it onto a PERC array 
directly".  Or maybe I'm mistaken in another assumption about layer 1 
installation of hyperv 2012 along the chain ... 

I'm going to venture to guess that the USB stick is not an option like it would 
be for ESXi?

Yesterday I stayed home since I was sick and I still am not 100% (I promise not

enough, I cannot connect either. I also tried our main website to see it is not 
reachable as well. I try and nslookup only to find we no longer exist. OK, I 
call the ISP and tell them we are no longer on their DNS servers. The tech on 
the other end looks up our account and wants to know who we are using as our 
DNS provider. I bite my tongue so I don't just say "we use you stupid" and tell 
him we are on the o1.com name servers. He responds "who is 
o1.com?" I bite my tongue harder, you purchased them last year! 
He is now very confused by this whole situation and gives me a ticket number 
and says he will have someone call me back when they get this sorted out. Great.

Two hours pass with no call back so I call them back only to find they still do 
not know what is wrong. Really? Come on now! I want to go to bed and get 
better. To cut this story short it took them 7 hours from the time I opened the 
ticket to resolution. We ended up on new name servers still on 
o1.com. I wonder why they didn't move our stuff to TelePacific's 
name servers? They did say this was not just us so I think something happened 
to their name servers  and they built new ones. We never had problems when 
o1.com was their own company. So far, I am not impressed by 
TelePacific.

I do actually have a question here. Was there anything I could have done to get 
us up and running?

RE: Registering "keywords"

IMHO it's just an extension of the fishing expeditions out of China/Hong Kong

Tear it up, throw it away, and ignore it.

I keep receiving notifications from foreign registrars that someone is trying 
to register "keywords" for our domain. Normally I just dismiss them as an 
extortion attempt, however, this morning, we received a message from our 
website feedback form from m-w-w.com, the Chinese anti-cybersquatting 
organization (at least that's what their website says they are) claiming that 
someone was trying to register the keyword "blueridgecarpet". Should I just 
ignore this one as well, or should we go ahead and register the keyword 
ourselves?

OT: stupid kvm question

[Rick Berry]

are the dongles used with KVM-over-IP devices universal?  for example, is it 
reasonable to think that a dell/belkin/avocent Cat5-to-ps2/vga/usb dongle from 
any vendor would function nominally in another vendor's device?

i cannot ascertain if there's something baked into those puppies that is 
somehow proprietary.
