If I understand your issue correctly, you are using User Registration and are unable to register your Cisco UC-520.
Please verify that the following settings are correct in your PBX:
Proxy Server (primary): sip.skype.com
Registrar Server: sip.skype.com 
Digest Authentication:  SIP User (99051000XXX)& password from Skype Connect sip profile.
Note, if you cut and  paste the password, sometimes a space gets added to the field. If this happens registration will fail.
Hope this helps.

  • TPlink connect CISCO WCL ap problem

    i am trying to link up TPLINK router and cisco ap(with WCL), the cisco ap is in local mode, and the TP-link is using WDS mode. I have try to config in different way but fail in different result
    when i check the client on cisco ap it show different status
    Associate>idle(loop)
    With WPA authentication
    Associate>disassociate(loop)
    With WEP authentication
    Assocaite>excluded(loop)
    tick the client exclusion, after un-tick this option, it become disassociate>>>associate>>run(loop)
    Should i config the that in this way? or which mode is suppose to be set on cisco ap, it could be change to bridge mode.
    The purpose for this connection is on client side have no wifi function, must through LAN for internal network.

    I have tried the same without success - do you need to set some special settings for your Cisco network? I see the router on my client list, but it cannot access the network. The devices wired to the TPLink router are not receiving IP addresses...
    Thanks!

  • Cisco ACS 4.2.1 authentication problem

    We are using cisco ACS 4.2.1 on windows 2003  to authenticate  with windows 2003 Actice Directory. We have update Active directory server windows 2008 version. We have checked the configuration of ACS on windows database and no problem but we can't see in ACS dynamic user. I have authentication problem ACS 4.2.1 to Windows 2008 R2 active directory.

    Hi there,
    There is a section in the ACS 4.x where you can define if the ACS should show the dynamic users or not, make sure that this option is unchecked, for this go to External User Databases/Unknown User Policy/Configure Caching Unknown Users
    Also if you are facing authentication issues with ACS 4.x and Windows 2008 R2, you may want ready my previous answer.
    Let me know if this helps.

  • Phone won't connect to wifi saying authentication problem

    My phone after being connected to sky wifi from sept 2013, has all of a sudden started hardly connecting, and always says 'authentication problem'. I have my iPad connected to the wifi too, but this has also been connecting fine since sept 2013.The connection to my phone drops a lot, and then when it is connected it is very, very slow. It doesn't drop at all on my iPad.  Please can someone help me. And put it in layman terms please, thank you. EM

    Two things to try. Change the wifi channel on the Sky router/Hub itself, instruction on a post at the top of this forum. And try forgetting the network on the iPhone; Settings->WiFi, and select the network ticked. Select Forget This Network and confirm it. Then reconnect to the Sky router/Hub by selecting the wifi network and entering the password again on the iPhone. Try the latter first, then change the wifi channel on the Sky Hub/router after this step. If you don't have an iPhone, then use the steps appropriate for that phone to basically do the same as above, for forgetting and reconnecting the phone to the wifi network.

  • Tablet will not connect to router it is saying authentication problem

    Tablets saying authentication problem after password is put in,and i dissconected my  phone now that wont connect

    Hi whittydaz,
    Thanks for posting onto the Forum,
    It's not good to see that you are having trouble connecting to the Sky Router with your wireless devices. Can you please tell me if you are able to connect to a device wired at all? What lights are appearing on your Sky router at the moment?
    Have you reset your Sky Router by pressing and holding the button on the back of the router for longer than 30 seconds?
    Please let me know the answer to these questions and hopefully we can get to the bottom of this
    Cheers,

  • WLC 5508 WPA Authentication Problems

    Hello,
    We have a WLC 5508 with 7.4.100.0 Firmware.
    We are using 1141 and 1142 APs and we are having authentication problems with clients that are connecting to our WLAN with WPA+AES autentication. The clients receive in her laptop a password error, and we receive the following log in wlc:
    Client Excluded: MACAddress:f8:f1:eb:dd:ff:cd Base Radio MAC :08:ad:dd:76:4d:30 Slot: 0 User Name: unknown Ip Address: unknown Reason:802.1x Authentication failed 3 times. ReasonCode: 4
    The strange thing is that the problem is solved restarting the Access-points.
    Anyone had this problem previusly?
    Thanks in advance.

    I made the configuration using the Cisco Recommended settings, the strange thing its that the users connect normally, until they starts with authentication problems. I restart the access points and the problem its solved.

  • Failed to Connect to CCMCIP authentication server error

    Hi All,
    I am getting a strange error with a CM8  Cisco Unified client services framework client.
    He is getting failed to connect to CCMIP authentication server.
    The user is assoicated with a phone line.
    He is in the CCM end users and standard CTI enabled group.
    The phone is setup to be controlled via CTI.
    I had one of the IT support guys use this users login to try and login using a different PC with the similar results.
    This makes me wonder if the problem is with the users' profile on the Presence server somehow.
    I will attach the problem report along with one of the error messages.
    I have noted the problem with the voicemail server and will get the password fixed up soon.
    Any help or ideas would be so appreciated.
    Regards
    Amanda

    Hi All,
    I am continuing to work on the problem.
    I found something interesting in the core log file.
    I will attach the new debug report.
    If anyone has any ideas for how to fix this please let me know.
    thanks

  • Authentication problem - solved, but maybe a bug in Mac OS X?

    Hi,
    I've a rather small installation with only a handful of users configured on a Mac mini (Mac OS X Server, 10.6.8). All of them use the mail, calendar and addressbook server on the Mac, nothing more. They use it with Mac, iPhone and iPad. Everything worked fine for months but suddenly all of them were faced authentication problems: it was not possible to login on the imap server, the calendar server, the addressbook server. It was possible to login using the admin account on the server directly. Moreover, all users disappeared from the workgroup manager, however they still were available on the servers LDAP server and findable using ldapsearch.
    First, I used to completely restart the server to solve the problem, but it reappeared after only few hours again.
    Second, after understanding more about the authentication process, I found the "killall DirectoryService" was sufficient to solve the problem, but it still reappeared after few hours.
    Then I found the, once the problem occured, there was nearly no more communication to the local LDAP server on port 389 on localhost. When everything was working fine, the was a lot of such communication, including queries for usernames, when a login attempt was made. I started a "tcpdump -n -i lo0 port 389" and waited for the problem again. After the problem occured, I found in the pcap files that there were a few final query attempts, actually attempts the open a port 389 TCP connection to the slapd running on localhost, which were answered with a TCP RST. Then, no more attempts were made until l restarted the DirectoryService. Using the logfile of the slapd I found that this happened exactly at the time the slapd was stopped and restarted. And - surprisingly for me - stopping and restarting the slapd happened exactly once an hour.
    I then found that it happened exactly at the time the time machine backup process was started and indeed it was possible to trigger the event of restarting the slapd by manually starting a time machine backup.
    (Indeed, I switched my backup strategy from SuperDuper to time machine the other day and maybe that was the time the problem occured for the first time. I know that time machine is not considered as the best backup strategy for a server but I wanted to try on my own.)
    Google helped my to find a hint that time machine will actually stop and restart slapd - which is a generally a good idea, since otherwise a backup from some open database files would be made, which could work but may fail. So, I thing, someone of the developers thought about that problem too and has considered time machine for backups of a server.
    However, a not running slapd can not answer queries from a DirectoryService and a stopping or starting process might indeed end up with TCP SYNs answered with TCP RST.
    My solution was to disable time machine again and from that time the problem does not occur again.
    I'm wondering why the DirectoryService process isn't starting to query the slapd again after a failed connection. Isn't this a bug? After this experience I consider time machine as not only the not preferred backup solution for a server but as completely incompatible with Mac OS X server - although, as I said, it seems that someone thought about backing up the LDAP database using time machine.
    (On a Lion server this problem does not occur, the slapd will not be stopped and restarted when time machine is running. Moreover, I saw a com.apple.slapd.start notification in the slapd.log ... maybe this tells DirectoryService to try again.)
    Cheers,
    Wolfgang

    Another problem I found with the MacOS X key bindings: the 6 key doesn't work!
    In the config that ships with SQL Developer, I found this:
    <Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">

    </data>
    </second>

    which should be:

    <first class="java.lang.String">DOCUMENT_6_CMD_ID</first>
    <second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">

  • Wifi Authentication Problem in Lenovo K900

    Hi,
    I am able to connect to wifi at home network. And when I try it at office it is showing Authentication problem and "Not in Range". The password and everything is correct. All my colleagues are able to connect with the same password. I searched online for the solution and there are many other lenovo tab and phone users facing the same problem and I am unable to find the solution. Can anyone resolve this issue and give appropriate answer for this.

    This is the first time I'm hearing this issue, I'm also an K900 user but this never happmed to me or my other friends.
    Are you sure that's the right password, maybe its case sensitive, because this bug is not present in K900.
    Facebook Profile I'm a carefree type of guy but always there to help, so if you have anything to ask don't hesitate.

  • WiFi Authentication problem

    I have an iMac, and iPad, a Blackberry (forgive me) and Airport for my WiFi all of my pieces are working fine with my WiFi.  I had guests over the other day and we could not allow my guests iPads or iPhone to sign onto my network.  I bought my dad a generic tablet to use for solving cross words, etc., and I cannot sign into my own network.  No opportunity exists to put in a password because it just reads "Authentication Problem".
    No opportunity exists, therefore, to enter the password.  Signal strength is excellent, Securty is WPA2 PSK, I touch connect and it says Saved Secured with WPA2 and then goes back to "Authentication Problem."
    I've unplugged (and plugged back in) both the Airport / router and Internet Service provider's modem. I've rebooted my iMac and the new generic pad 3 times each. 
    I had 2 networks one for me and one for guests, can't get into either, identical problem. I can see all of the neighbour's networks and they're all locked and say secured with (various WPA/WPA2, etc., just mine says Authentication Problem.  I plugged the tablet into my iMac and it's functioning well.
    I now deleted the guest network and can't open a new network. 
    I've triple checked my passwords, hand written and in the Key Chain.
    I've checked my Apple ID (I'm able to get into this forum).
    Both my iPad (purchased May 2013) and BlackBerry (received free July 2013) signed in without any problems.
    I cannot see why I can't get into my network ~ any ideas?

  • Console Authentication Problem

    HI, I have cisco 1841 Router configured for AAA authentication.
    Everything is fine only problem with console authentication. I dont want to have AAA authentication console. I want to use local console password prompt when somone console the router. Below mention is my configuration but still it is asking for the username and password. I want only password prompt and password that I have configured on the line console. But It is not working for me. Please tell me what I am missing.
    aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ local enable
    aaa authentication login console none
    aaa authentication login notacacs local
    aaa authentication enable default group tacacs+ enable
    aaa authorization exec default group tacacs+ local
    line con 0
    password cisco
    login authentication notacacs

    Hi Wasim,
    For aaa configuration in console check out the below configuration for console authentication
    aaa authentication login CONSOLE line
    There is only one authentication method (line).
    Once a named list (in this example, CONSOLE) is created, it must be applied to a line or interface for it to come into effect. This is done using the
    login authentication list_name command:
          line con 0
              exec-timeout 0 0
              password cisco
              login authentication CONSOLE
    The CONSOLE list overrides the default method list default on line con 0.
    Note: To have console access authenticated by a local username and password, use:
        aaa authentication login CONSOLE local
    Note: In this case, a username and password have to be configured in the local database of the router. The list must also be applied to the line or interface.
    Note: To have no authentication, use
        aaa authentication login CONSOLE none
    Note: In this case, there is no authentication to get to the console access. The list must also be applied to the line or interface.
    Hope that helps out your query !!

  • Email authentication problem on only some of Verizon's servers

    I use Eudora 6.2.4 on an iMac Core 2 Duo 2.0 20" (Al) Macintosh running OX 10.5.5.  Like many others (see one thread each under FiOS Internet and High Speed Internet and Dialup), since about mid-November, I have been receiving intermittent (about 10% of the time) authentication errors when Eudora checks for new mail.  I have 3 VZ e-mail accounts and one at my employer; the errors occur only on the VZ accounts.
    I've used the freeware app Eavesdrop (http://code.google.com/p/eavesdrop/) to observe the TCP conversations between Eudora and the server. The VZ server offers SASL CRAM-MD5 PLAIN, and Eudora uses CRAM-MD5.  I see the challenge from the server, Eudora's response, and the server's authentication-failure response.  Since the response is hashed, I have no way of telling if Eudora is sending the correct response, but it works most of the time.  (After it fails, Eudora then assumes its stored password is NG, discards it, and prompts me for it on the next mail-check, which is just a bit annoying.)
    Here is an example of a successful mail-check:

    -ERR [AUTH] Authentication failed
    You'll notice that the VZ server identifies itself at the onset of each conversation, including a build ID and date, followed by a timestamp and a server ID (e.g., vms109.mailsrvcs.net).  I'm in eastern Massachusetts, and when my client connects to incoming.verizon.net, one of a pool of V servers responds.  I've observed about 15 different servers, of which two (vms171011 and vms171013) show "6.3-7.04 (built Sep 26 2008)" and all the others show "6.2-6.01 (built Apr  3 2006)".  Furthermore, I observe that vms171011 and vms171013 consistently give this authentication failure for CRAM-MD5, but all the others (with the older build) consistently succeed in authenticating my accounts.
    I called FiOS Support, and the CSR took down took down some relevant info, said she'd pass it on the the e-mail folks.  Within 2 hours I got a call from a Verizon tech.  He said they "knew" about it and that it was a Mac problem.  It wasn't specific to VZ, and it occurred only on Macs.   He had no explanation for my observation that mail-check authentication works with 13 of VZ's servers and consistently fails with two which have a later build version/date, but he believed it was consistent with it being an Apple problem.  So naturally he was off the hook.
    He referred me to an Apple Support Forum discussion to back up his position.  I hadn't seen (or thought of looking in) the Apple forums, so I had a look and found a total of 5 threads under "Mail and Address Book".  Of course, these deal with Mail.app, .  Comcast as well as VZ.  This is the lengthiest of them:

    These Apple discussion threads and the two Verizon Forum threads all mention Macintoshes, which lends credence to the tech's assertion that it's a Mac problem, not Verizon's.  I've found one that seems to depict the same thing on a PC (http://groups.google.com/group/comp.mail.eudora.ms-windows/browse_thread/thread/b426c0ca59841ca9), but it's not conclusive. 
    I don't know what PeeCee users use for a mail client or what method they use for authentication (the POP3 protocol, as amended,has several possibilities).  My Eudora app has settings for "Password", "Kerberos", and "APOP", but VZ doesn't offer Kerberos, and Eudora seems to ignore the APOP setting, so it uses only the CRAM-MD5 method, so I'm stuck.  I can't disprove that this is a Mac-only problem, but I can't understand why the CRAM-MD5 authentication always works with 13 of VZ's servers and always fails with 2 others (which happen to have a different build version/date).
    Solved!

    With the help of a Windows-using friend, I have additional evidence that the mail-check authentication problem is NOT Mac-specific, but also can be shown to occur with a POP3 client (the final version, Eudora 7.1.0.9) using a secure authentication method (APOP) on Windows (XP Home, SP 3).  He had been observing no authentication problems, but investigation showed that his authentication setting was for "Password", which uses the basic (and very insecure) USER/PASS messages.  His Eudora does not allow CRAM-MD5, but it does have APOP authentication, which is another secure method that also uses the MD5 algorithm to encrypt the password.
    When he changed the setting to use APOP authentication, he observed the same behavior that I've reported above:
       - with most of the VZ servers (e.g., vms095.mailsrvcs.net, vms104.mailsrvcs.net) that show "6.2-6.01 (built Apr  3 2006)", the authentication succeeds
       - with vms171011.mailsrvcs.net and vms171013.mailsrvcs.net, which show "6.3-7.04 (built Sep 26 2008)", the authentication fails.
    See examples below.
    Here's a successful mail-check (these excerpts are from the Eudora log; I've edited his username):

    IMHO all this evidence validates my original hypothesis, that two (or more) of VZ's mail servers, which have server builds "6.3-7.04 (built Sep 26 2008)", advertise secure CRAM-MD5 and APOP authentication capabilities, but consistently fail such authentication attempts.  All the other servers with builds "6.2-6.01 (built Apr  3 2006)" handle these authentications correctly.  This has been shown to be the case on both Mac and Windows POP3 email clients.  Email clients that use the simpler and unsecure USER/PASS and AUTH PLAIN methods apparently see no authentication errors on any of the VZ servers.  This strongly points to this being a Verizon problem specific to two of the servers that we see here in eastern Massachusetts.  Others have also observed the same server-specificity; see for example http://eudorabb.qualcomm.com/showthread.php?t=13802 .  This problem has been reported since about mid-November.
    Verizon, the ball is in your court.  Find the problem and fix it!

  • Screensharing authentication problem and weird solution

    OK, I've been having the Screensharing authentication problem that crops up regularly on this forum.  Accidentally I found a very weird solution.  I want to know what's going on and to let others know of the solution.
    Let's say my laptop account is called 'london' and I want to connect it to my tower account called 'paris' on the LAN.  I browsed the network for the tower, click 'connect as' and in the dialog box I put in "Name: paris" and "Password: xxx".  I click 'connect' and I am connected as the registered user 'paris' and I can browse all of the disks.  File sharing is thus working normally.
    Now I click the 'share screen...' button and I get another dialog box into which I once more type "Name: paris" and "Password: xxx".  This yields an authentication failure message, which many users will be familiar with.
    By accident instead of typing the name and password for the account on the distant machine, I typed into the dialog box the name and password of the local machine:  ie. "Name: london" and "Password: yyy".  Much to my amazement the screensharing works.  What is going on?

    No, the username on london is london and on the machine paris it is paris.  However, the passwords are different.
    Just to be clear, I first connect to the remote machine's file sharing using the remote machine's username and password (ie. in the normal fashion).  I then connect screensharing but give the local machine's username and password in the dialog box.
    Before I made this discovery I had created a couple of fresh accounts on the remote machine. One was glitched, while the other functioned properly (ie. screensharing required the remote machine's username and password).  The bizarre fix worked for my original account.  I have not tested it on the new accounts for fear of screwing things up again.

  • How do I correct LG Lucid wifi authentication problem

    LG Lucid was working fine until few days ago when it stopped connecting to all available wifi networks.  It still ID's them, goes thru authentication process, & then provides error message "authentication problem".  I think there was aa phone update about the same time things stopped working.  Help please.

    I know this is an old thread, and would hope you've gotten connected to your WiFi by now, but you may want to check your router settings. If you have some sort of device filtering set up, your for may not be recognizing your phone since the update.

  • Wifi authentication problem yoga 2 1050F

    Hi,I am a new member and have just upgraded to android 5. Seems a big mistake as cannot connect to internet (no trouble with android 4) Says authentication problem. Have tried cancelling and re-entering password, turning router on and off and factory reset. Nothing. If Lenovo come up with a repair how will I be able to get it into the tablet when I have no internet connection.At the moment I have a tablet that is about as usefull as a roof tile. HELP

    You have been looking everywhere, except this forum. This issue was already addressed in this thread: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Android-Yoga-Series-Tablets/Wifi-Won-t-Connect-quot-Authentification-Problem-quot-Yoga/td-p/2105009 Are you using a WEP key encryption? If yes, try switching to WPA/WPA2. Though i have been able to connect without problem with these settings: Have you performed a factory reset after switching from 4.4.2 to 5.0? You could try that, sometimes it fixes so e issues.
