RE: SirCam Virus Problem Exchange Server

2001-09-24 Thread Sullivan, Glenn

Install some Email Virus protection, and let it deal with the infected
messages.  Or block that domain at your internet mail connector.

Trend ScanMail is a good antivirus package, and you can easily block a
particular domain, or even a single user from a domain, in your IMC
properties box.

Our webmaster seems to have found a "friend" who apparently doesn't know she
has the SirCam virus. We're being sent hundreds of emails from this one
account to our webmaster. We've set up a rule to forward all these emails to
our webmasters delete folder, but apparently that's creating problems as
well. Our webmaster doesn't want us to shut down that alias, so does anyone
have any other ideas to somehow eliminate the problem. All the email is
coming from an address at HOME.COM.

Subject: Is there any way to know for sure? More Nimda stuff.

Maybe I am being paranoid.  I have a server that the eeye scanner says is
not vulnerable, I don't see any .eml files on it and when I scan for files
changed since the 18th, there are no .exes.  However, when I look at the
task list, it shows 2 CMD.EXEs open.  I have one open but not two.  Am I
being weird here?  The second CMD.EXE un-nerves me, but I can't find any
other sign of infection.  Is there any one, "sure fire" way to KNOW that the
box has been hit?  Is there one registry entry or file or something that the
virus ALWAYS does so I can see if the box is hit?

I am thinking about re-building it, just in case, but if I can leave it up,
I would obviously prefer that.  Any ideas?

My developers are running NT 2000 Server edition on their machines for
development reasons. (This allows them to develop and step through debugging
completely through multi-tier components all on one machine)

I have found that they do not have any virus protection on their machines,
because the standard editions do not run on servers.

Can anyone make a product recommendation for a product that will not
necessarily include the entire enterprise support and admin overhead (and
cost) for servers that actually SERVE something?

Perhaps a desktop version of something reliable that will run servers as
well?

As you can expect, I am panicked at this point!

  Ok, 
  one more question.  How do you 
  find the original IP address of the JetDirect card (i.e. when you buy a new 
  one)?  I currently use telnet to 
  make my changes as well, but I have to use JetAdmin (or WebJetAdmin) to find 
  the original IP (which is usually assigned via DHCP).  After that I make it a static IP so I 
  can always telnet to it when I need to make 
  changes.

Just in case no-one's piped up with a solution yet...!


The ATI TV Wonder tuner card ($70) can be used to capture stills. Dead easy,
just select the video-in instead of cable-in, then use the camera icon to
grab any pics.  Alternatively, you can the digital VCR utility to record the
entire video signal to disk, then go back and grab and stills that you want.
The ATI TV Wonder VE can what you want as well, for

For more info,

http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/tv_wonder/index.html


Of course, being able to watch cable-TV on the PC comes in handy too at
times :-).

Not sure about the quality though - if you want, I can try grabbing a few
pics off my camera and send you the images so you can judge the quality for
yourself.

Note: Once properly set up, the ATI Multimedia Utilities are easy to use.
However, ATI's driver installation process seem to be in permanent beta
mode, so expect a few "issues" when trying to install them.  Once installed
though, they seem to work well.

My card was provided with older drivers that don't support W2K.  However,
you can download drivers that do support W2K from their website.

http://support.ati.com/products/pc/tuners/atitvwonder_drivers.html


Alternatively, you could simply use one of ATI's All-In-Wonder cards that
works as a normal video card as well as providing video/still capturing
facilities.  That way you can get the still-capturing without having to add
an extra card to the system.

Brian

  How to let 
  Non-Domain Admins connect to a Win2K Server via Terminal Services in 
  Remote Admin mode? Here's what Mark Minasi found out: I really 
  like Terminal Services for Windows 2000 in the "Remote Administration" 
  mode; it lets up to two people use Terminal Services to remotely control a 
  Windows 2000 Server, and doesn't require me to buy any Terminal Server 
  client licenses. But when you select "Remote Administration" mode for 
  Terminal Services, then Terminal Services only lets members of the Domain 
  Admins group log into Terminal Services. I wanted to let regular 
  old users log in, but didn't know how. While teaching a class for a large 
  communications company this month, I found out how. Open Terminal 
  Services Configuration (it's in Administrative Tools) In the command 
  pane (the left-hand pane of the MMC console), click on "Connections." 
  In the right-hand pane, you'll see an icon representing a connection 
  (a hard disk atop a network connection) and the words "RDP-Tcp," "tcp," 
  and "Microsoft RDP 5.0." Double-click the icon to bring up its Properties 
  dialog, or just right-click the icon and choose "Properties." You'll see a 
  property page labeled "RDP-Tcp Properties." Click the "Permissions" 
  tab. Note that right now, the tab shows only the System account and 
  the local Administrators group. Add any person or group that you like, and 
  they'll be able to log onto the server via Terminal Services.
