How can i bypass IPs shared secret or certificate when connecting to an older microsoft vpn network

I have a macbook pro running Lion.  When I attempt to connect via VPN I am asked for either a shared secret or a certificate, but the Microsoft server does not use or recognize either.  How can I bypass this requirement so I can access files I desperately need for work?

I am most certainly Not wrong, I just spent an hour sitting with the system administrator and he was befuddled!  The network does not require machine authentication.  Lion seems to think all networks do.
My connection is set up for PPP (no PPTP option exists, but certainly is NOT under L2TP)
The machine authentication is required by Lion no matter how we set it up. 
Any other ideas?

    There is nothing you can do in Messaging Server for this. The expiration of a certificate is defined by the certificate itself.

  • How can I reset family sharing and payment info when itunes requires verification information from a lost credit card?

    I was attempting to make an App store purchase and the App Store required verification of my computer.  The information the App Sotre - and ITunes require is the expiration date [ mm / yyyy ] and the security code off the back of my registered credit card.  The card is lost - and so is the information.  ITUnes will not allow me to change the payment information without verifying my information by - again - including the information from the back of the missing credit card. So I am stuck.  

    This is my account info for iTunes & AppStore:
    This is the payment info in iCloud Family Sharing settings:
    Obviously I was able to change the payment info in iTunes/App Store. What do I have to do to make that carry over to iCloud?

  • How can I stop disc images from popping up when connecting a drive?

    Hello,
    I have an external hard drive with several partitions, all formatted as Mac OS Extended. Two of the partitions are disc images of the install CD's for Drive Genius and Data Rescue from Prosoft Engineering. When I connect the drive using a FW800 cable to any Mac running Leopard or Snow Leopard, all of the partitions on the drive are mounted in the Finder and these two partitions pop up the window for the installer, as if I had inserted the CD. Is there a way to suppress these windows from popping up every time I connect the drive? Thank you!

  • How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are in the same account because its sharing every thing even text messages

    How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync. 
    If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
    If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync.  Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want.

  • How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)

    How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries?  We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account.  Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
    Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?

    The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
    The longer answer:  Think of it like this...
    You download some music in iTunes.  With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network.  But the data itself is on your computer.  If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
    But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device.  Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple). 
    When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

    You could follow the instructions in the support document that you linked from. There is a section regarding the passcode and the inability to use it or enter it. However, you may encounter more issues since you cannot use the screen.

  • HT2534 How can I use "Family Sharing" without giving details of my credit or debit card? I do not want to give my cards data, I have always used iTunes prepaid cards.

    How can I use "Family Sharing" without giving details of my credit or debit card? I do not want to give my cards data, I have always used iTunes prepaid cards.

    Hi Saramos,
    When setting up Family Sharing you must have a credit or debit card as your payment method. See this article for reference -
    Family purchases and payments
    When a family member makes a purchase it will be billed to any gift or store credit that they have first. If none exists it will be billed to you.
    As the family organizer, you may not set your billing method for purchases to anything other than a credit or debit card. If you have a store credit such as from pre-paid cards, it may not be shared with other family members. See this article for reference -

  • On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
    Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers.  To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing.  Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share.  You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons.  Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
    Go to Music in your Home Share.  Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner.

    You cannot delete the account from the server (partly to prevent the username from becoming available again and some-one else using it to pretend to be you).. Having disengaged your devices from it, go to http://icloud.com and delete any data in there such as contacts and calendars. Then just ignore it.

  • How Can i retain the Shared Variable Values after PC rebooting

    Hi all,
    I am facing a paculiar problem with Shared Variables. I have an application in which shared variables are used for data communication.
    One of the application requirement is to retain the variable values eventhough PC is rebooted or started after crashing. 
    As per the my understanding, the variable values will retain eventhough the PC is rebooted. But here i can observe a paculiar problem like some library variables are retaing the values while some others not. I enabled logging for all the variables.
    I tried many ways. like logging enabled, logging disabled, changing variable names, changing process names etc... But i am not getting a consistent behaviour.
    I hope some you can help me in solving this issue.. "How Can i retain the Shared Variable Values after PC rebooting"
    Thanks and Regards,
    Mir

    Hi Blackperl,
    Thanks for the post and I hope your well. 
    What do you mean by not getting consistent behaviour.. this will all depend on excatly when the crash happens i.e. before the write or after. 
    Surely a better method would be to log the data to a file during the reboot...
    I beleived the value read back
    will be the default value for the shared variable's data type.
    The LabVIEW DSC 8.0 module adds more functionality to the shared variable, including initial values and alarms.
    If you enable an initial value on a shared variable, when the variable
    engine comes back on-line it will default to this value. Setting a bad
    status alarm for the shared variable is also a good way of handling
    this type of event. Additionally, if you are using a LabVIEW Real-Time
    target such as Compact RIO or Compact FieldPoint, it is appropriate to
    consider hosting the shared variable engine on the real-time target.
    These devices have watch-dog capabilities and are typically the
    hardware controlling the critical pieces of an application. Most
    Windows or PC-based targets do not have these fail-safes.
    I guess, if you could explain to me again that would be great. From my point of view, if I have a cRIO and a Windows PC. If the windows PC crashes, the cRIO will still update its shared variables. Then once the PC has started up its own shared variable engine, and the bindings are loaded, it will once again continue to update its copies of the variables.
    Please let me know what you think,
    Kind Regards,
    James.
