Anyone got ACS SE 4.2.1 authenticating against server 2008 R2 via LDAP?

Hi, I'm working on a new network implementation where the customer has ACS SE and wants to use AD for machine based authentication of wired 802.1x clients.
As the support for 2008 R2 server (64-bit OS used here) using remote agent is not yet released they are attempting to set this up using an LDAP connection. The final goal is to use certificate based authentication, and I have had a message indicating this authentication type may not work due to an issue with binary comparison, so we started with basic username/password accounts first.
So far the ACS is populating its external user database fields with the domains setup on AD, but user authentication is failing.
Briefly we started with basic username/password usng MD5-CHAP on XP to an account configured on ACS, that worked fine. Then set up the external user database to use an LDAP connection to AD, and an unknown user policy, this dosent work. It looks like the issue could be do with the LDAP attributes not being set correctly.
Has anyone used LDAP as an authentication mechanism against 2008 R2 based AD and got it working?

Aacole,
The above error message says that your external database that is LDAP doesn't support EAP-MD5 and that is quite true.
You may check the below listed link for protocol and database compatibility.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_server_for_windows/4.2/user/guide/Overvw.html#wp824733
Since you are using LDAP its only supports EAP-GTC.
Do let me know if you need any further suggestions.
Regds,

External Authentication with Server 2008 R2

Has anyone had success configuring External Authentication on Windows Server 2008 R2? We are using Hyperion Enterprise 6.5.1.
Thank you.

Was there ever an answer on this, having problems with setup using same versions

WPA2-Enterprise Radius Authentication Windows Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I have tried a few online tutorials for providing secure wireless access. I currently have a server running Server 2008 R2 that has RRAS, NAP, and AD CS installed on it. My goal is to create a wireless SSID that utilizes WPA2-Entperise for users
to connect. Their AD credentials would need to belong to my "Wireless Users" group. I have seen tutorials that involved certificates, and some tutorials that simply added the RADIUS clients along with the network/connection policies,
and then added the settings to the router. When I've tried both ways, the wireless network never connects to the network. If I un-check the "Use Windows login credentials" a username/password field pops up. I enter the credentials
(tried both username and domain\username) of an account that is part of "Wireless Users". When I hit OK it sits for a few moments, and then pops back up again. When I do check "Use Windows login credentials" it says it can't
connect.
I have tried different firmware on the router, and I know the router is not the issue. This server is joined to my domain controller. It feels like the NAP server is not reaching the domain to authenticate credentials. Am I doing anything
wrong that I should be made aware of? In NAP if I right click the server, the "register in active directory" is greyed out, which I assume is because it's already joined to the domain.
I appreciate any help you can provide.

I've searched in "Event Viewer" on the NPS server, and came across an interesting error. I have Google'd the error, and there are only a select few articles about it. If I try to connect, often times I will get two information events:
Event ID 4400 "A LDAP connection with domain controller DC-VPN-IIS-01.dc.cooper.org for domain COOPER is established."
And now...the issue
Event ID 6273

Clearly, when I try to connect, it's completely bypassing the network policy I created, but going to the "Connections to other access servers", which by default denys access. I've tried everything....removed and re-added the security policy...added
2 network policies for wireless. Does anyone know why the network policy I create for wireless is not being recognized?

Anyone got 11.1.2.0.0 HFM working on 2008 SR2?

Hi, I have a distributed install with
- all the web apps on a Win2008SR2 VM with 4GB of RAM
- SQLServer2005 and Essbase 32 bit on a Windows2003EE VM with 3GB of RAM
- R&A Framework, FM Service and FDM Server on a Windows 2008SR2 installation with 2GB of RAM.
registering the HFM cluster fails from the configurator in the web app box, any ideas?
I heard voices that there are issues with HFM and DCOM on 2008SR2, can anyone confirm/deny/help?
Thanks

I think I am very close...my last issue to overcome is that the epm configuration bombs out when trying to configure DCOM for the HFM app server. Other than that, it seems to be fine.

MAC Authentication + Windows Server 2008 R2 Radius server

Hello there,
I have been trying to configure the MAC Authentication on Windows Server Network Policy Server but no success. Details on my configuration can be find below.
I have firstly enabled the Mac Authentication on 3com switch 4400 model.
enabling -> Mac-authentication
enabling authentication mode -> UsernameAsMacAddress
configuring a domain - mac-authentication domain abc.local.
I left the default Vlan (Vlan1)
While on my DC, I created a user
username: 00-00-00-00-00-00
password: 00-00-00-00-00-00
Lastly on the NPS Server, I configured the 802.1x Wired configuration, I configured the NAS (Radius Client) whici is the 3com Switch.
After completing the configurations, I turned on my computer with and logged on to the domain abc\00-00-00-00-00-00 with the password. But there was no success when the computer tried to connect to the network looking for DHCP services to obtain IP address.

Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your post.
MAC address authorization is performed when the user does not type in any user name or password, and refuses to use any valid authentication method. In this case, Network Policy Server (NPS) receives the Calling-Station-ID attribute, and no user name and
password. To support MAC address authorization, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) must have user accounts that contain MAC addresses as user names.
For more detailed information about MAC Address Authorization, please refer to the below article. Hope it helps.

AD authentication against Shared Services failing randomly

We're seeing random failures in AD authentication against Shared Services both via the Excel Addin and via Maxl scripts.
SQL server (v 10.50.2500), Shared Services and OHS (v 11.1.2.2.303), and Essbase server (v11.1.2.2.104) are installed on the same physical box (16 cores, 192GB RAM) in a single-server configuration. It happens every few days at no fixed time and is resolved either by itself in a few hours, or by stopping and starting EPM services (Hyperion Foundation Services - Managed Server, OPMN service for Essbase, and OPMN service for OHS are stopped by running <Middleware_Home>\user_projects\epmsystem1\bin\stop.bat, and started by running start.bat).
While the AD authentication is down, nobody is able to connect (via the Excel Add-in or Maxl scripts) using their AD accounts and get the following error - "Analytical Services user [AD_user1] Authentication Fails against the Shared Services Server with Error [EPMCSS-00301: Failed to authenticate user. Invalid credentials. Enter valid credentials.]". Native authentication works at all times (even when AD authentication fails).
Although it seems to apply to an older version and to Planning/Workspace, we did look into "Error "EPMCSS-00301: Failed To Authenticate User. Invalid credentials" Intermittently When MSAD User Logs Into Workspace. (Doc ID 1389871.1)". But even after making the suggested changes, the problem persists. Any ideas what might be causing AD authentication to fail randomly like this? Below are some relevant portions of the logs -

I keep getting emails saying my password has been changed , everytime i go reset it with stronger passwords, but it keeps happening, anyone got any ideas?

Hi all, I keep getting emails saying my password has changed, I have now reset my password 4 times in the last 2 weeks with stronger and stronger passwords and have also changed my security questions, anyone got any ideas how to resolve this problem?

No. I am a volunteer, not always on good terms with Apple either. I'm sorry I don't seem to have helped but what I told you is what I would tell anyone in your situation.
I hope Thomas r won't mind me pasting one of his replies, but the thread is so long it could be daunting. Thomas knows about these things.
****** Courtesy to Thomas r.
As has already been pointed out earlier in this topic, the issue is either a repeated phishing attempt (in which someone sends you a faked e-mail, directing you to a faked site, which tries to get you to "log in" so that the hackers can get your ID and password) or someone is repeatedly trying to get access to your account. I'm guessing the latter is more likely... someone's repeatedly trying to reset your password, for who knows what reason, and they're trying repeatedly because they're never getting the password reset e-mail. (Why they would expect to receive that e-mail I don't know... people are stupid.)
Make sure your Apple ID has a good, secure password. (There is no need to reset your own password to do this, just go toappleid.apple.com and change it.) I'd also advise turning on two-factor authentication to further protect your Apple ID:
Apple introduces two-factor authentication
This will prevent password reset attempts, as it will not be possible to even start the password reset process without having access to the device used to receive the code used as the second identification factor.
Hope this helps.

I have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

You just need a powered hub.. if you already use one then fine.
Plug in just about any external hard disk will work fine. Format has to be readable by the TC.. ie fat32.. or much better HFS+.. plug it into a Mac to prepare the drive.
Pick whatever size suits.. nowadays 2TB are most economical.
WD, Seagate have goobled up all the minor players.. so pick one.
Whatever suits your budget and asthetics.
NOTE.. The USB on the TC is fine for printers.. IMHO it is the wrong way to go with USB disks.. use the internal disk of the TC.. USB is less than half the native speed plugged into a Mac.. TC to USB is slow.. far slower than internal drive.. or using external drive as external.

Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

My Time Capsule expired and no longer works. My printer (a HP) will now not work as it still wishes to connect through the Time Capsule. It will not allow itself be recognised through a USB connection to my Mac. Anyone got any ideas?

You will need to install the printer on your Mac
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Print & Fax
Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
Wait for your printer to appear in the next box, then click it to highlight it
Click Add at the lower right
Be sure to select the correct printer when you try to print as you will see your printer listed twice. Good idea to make the printer now installed on your Mac the default printer so you do not have to choose which printer to use each time you want to print.
You can also go into Print & Fax, select the printer associated with the Time Capsule and click the - (minus) button if you want to delete that location.

I used to send photos from my Lumix Tz-40 camera directly to my iPad using the cameras WIFI. Since I installed IOS7 the connection no longer works. Anyone got any ideas. I have already installed the latest version of Panasonic's Image App (1.7.1)

I used to send photos from my Lumix Tz-40 camera directly to my iPad using the camera's WIFI. It was all working well until I installed IOS7. The connection no longer works. The camera still keeps the iPad in its connection history. The camera's wifi network still appears when I select a WiFi network from the iPad but the Wifi status icon never appears on the iPad. So the connection is never made.
Anyone got any ideas. I have already installed the latest version of Panasonic's Image App (1.7.1)

Hi there,
You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
Nathan
