IronPort WSA with Authentication unable to access 2 character domain names with 2 character TLDNs

I've discovered an issue requiring user authentication and some of the short url sites likes e2.ma will not load in Internet Explorer explicitly configured to go through an IronPort WSA. In testing with bogus domains (a.to, aa.to) it seems the issue is if the domain name is 1-2 characters and the top level domain name is also 2 characters long. Longer domains (aaa.to) work and return an IronPort error for DNS_FAIL. Does anyone know of a workaround to not have to allow all these as unauthenticated destinations?

Support pointed me towards that KB article as well, but it is for IE 5 (and fixed in IE 6), but IE 8+ uses a TLD list from Microsoft (visible by using res://urlmon.dll/ietldlist.xml) and I don't control the external website. I'm going to try using an IP address surrogate instead of session cookies for these domains and see if that resolves this.

  • Problem with iWeb after associating a personal domain name with my MobileMe

    I think I did this by the book. I associated my personal domain name with my MobileMe account, then changed the CName pointer at GoDaddy to MobileMe (MM), then went back to MM and hit 'Done'. iWeb now lists my MM account as 'My account name (personal domain name). It took a little while for the DNS pointer to propogate, but now I can go to a browser, type in my personal domain name, and MM delivers my iWeb website as I wanted it to, apparently from my domain, not web.me.com. The problem is, as soon as the DNS propogated, MM delivers my MM site OK, but iWeb can't find the files for it anymore. All my pages immediately went red (unpublished) when I tried to update the site, and any attempt to Publish gives me this error "iWeb couldn’t connect to MobileMe. Make sure your Internet connection works and try again." I'm cable connected to an ADSL router, and Airport connected to a cable router, and neither service has dropped out. I've rebooted, and retried, and the website is up under my own domain, so GoDaddy and MM both got it right. What did I do wrong? Thanks, someone... anyone?

    This is now sort of resolved, but not very satisfactorily. One of the trainers at my local Appple Store found an old support issue in the archives going back to 2008, which blamed security settings for update problems. Coincidental with associating MobileMe with my personal domain, I had checked the privacy box and added an ID and PW to the site. That was the problem, not the personal domain, that was preventing iWeb from finding my MM account. Uncheck that box and my site happily updates. Of course, now I have a site that I cannot make private. In this case, not a show-stopper, but disappointing. I have reported it as a bug in the latest version of iWeb. Thanks for your help.

  • Unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition

    unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition ..instead i keep getting the error message ''unable to access ebooks any longer with adobe digital edition''

    Not seen that message before, but two standard suggestions that may help.
    1) ~~~~~
    Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
    Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.
    Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
    A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
    This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
    Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
    In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people.  Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash. If you are using 10.7, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1265248?tstart=0
    2) ~~~~~~~~~
    There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0 (and 2.0.1).  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/cant-install-digital-editions.html
    The forum software is sometimes corrupting the link above.  There shouldn't be a blank in 'editio ns.html'.  The following redirects to the same page: http://tinyurl.com/diged172
    Some people have found ADE trying to upgrade automatically. 
    It appears (not 100% sure) that if you install ADE2.0 as a new install (not as an upgrade) that your 1.7.2 will continue to run.
    Probably best to say no if 2.0.x installation asks if you want to migrate your library.

  • Sharepoint access denied- Domain name expired

    Hi All,
    I am one of the user of sharepoint. Access and domain name was created by administrator for me earlier.
    Now when I am trying to log in it says domain name expired.
    In such cases, if any document is uploaded and shared through sharepoint then what will happen to it?
    All documents are erased or are still on server?
    Need help in this context.
    Thanks in advance

  • I have a domain name with go-daddy can i use iweb to create my page?

    I'm trying to help a friend set-up a website.  he has a domain name with go-daddy but hasnt set-up the web page at all can i use iweb and upload it to the domain name he already has bought?  I'm a first time iweb user please help!!

    Your friend needs both a domain name and a web hosting account in order to get his website online.  If he has both with GoDaddy.com then yes, you can create and upload the site. 
    If he has purchased only a domain name he'll need to get a hosting service.

  • I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now I have iMac and have changed to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?

    I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now that I have iMac I have changed the account type to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?
    I do receive emails into my iMac for which I have 3 email accounts but am struggling on how synchronise between iMac and iPad so that both are up to date at all times.  I have also set up a iCloud email account thinking this was the way to go but have drawn a blank.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Linc Davis,
    I have set up my email address both within my iMac and my ISP as IMAP accounts and I receive all emails without problem on my iMac. I have also set up an iCloud email address using my iMac.
    I have enabled the email within "setting" on my iPad and have used the iCloud account.  I have sent emails from the iMac to iPad using the iCloud account address and vice versa.  I have also sent emails from the iPad to the iMac using my non-iCloud email address and they have gotten through.
    The one thing I would like to have is for the iPad "mail" mailboxes to mimic the iMac "mail" mailboxes and both to be "in sync".  I am not really interested in using the iCloud email address for my email but would really like to use my "normal" addresses as these are what most people know me by.
    Do I need to set additional accounts within the iPad which are the same as the email accounts I have within the iMac and my ISP?  I have reached the end of my knowledge as regards email synchronsing.
    Thanks

    After updating my  iPad to IOS 8.1.2, I am unable to access the Cloud with my password, even though it worked on my Macmini.  I changed the password and it still does not work on the iPad.  What can I do to get iPad to recognize my Apple ID/password account?

    I would be helpful to know what those "basic steps" you have already tried are, but lacking that information:
    Settings app > iTunes & App Stores - sign out of your AppleID
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
    Sign back into your AppleID (same location as noted above)

  • Unable to access or view data with no authorization error

    Hi Experts,
    Appreciate your guys help. I am ID administrator where by some of our user ID unable to view data/ display report for the some of data even the appropriate authorization already assigned to the user. However when we check in the transaction SU53 - authorization checking no error shown!
    There is a case whereby user report that his ID (e.g. SAP ID = ABC) unable to access a transaction or infotype data for example HR infotype masterdata,upon checking there is no authorazition error (checked insu53), when copy the ID (ABC) to another new ID (ABC1) with no changes on the roles, the ABC1 ID able to access the said transaction.However, when copy back ABC1 to the ABC (naming conversion only), the ABC ID still unable to access the transaction with no authorization error. the
    main problem here is the original ID is not working, but works fine if it is copied to another ID name.
    Kindly advice.

  • Unable to access Airport Extreme Disk With Vista

    I have a network with a Mac Book Pro, G5, and now a Vista PC all connected to an Airport Extreme. Connected to the AE are a printer and two harddrives. The harddrives are formatted HFS+ Journaled. All three computers have access to the Internet and to the printer. The Vista computer is unable to access the harddrives (most of the time). Prior to the Vista machine I had an XP Pro machine that was able to access the AE without any problems at all. The Vista machine will occasionally be able to access the drives but only for approximately 60 seconds. Access, when it does occur, is typically after a reboot of the AE. Following a reboot, I can map the AE drives to drive letters or simply access them from networking for from IE.
    I've tried turning off the Windows firewall as well as the McAfee one and still no solution.
    I've tried everything I can think of as well as scanned message boards to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    am having similar problems with USB drive connected to airport extreme. I tried with a usb key and it can only be seen by the airport base station agent and computers on the network if it is formatted using FAT32 file system. if I use any other file system to format the usb key, it cannot be seen. I have some external hard drives that windows will not allow me to to format using fat32. they are NTFS formatted and are not usable.
    You might try formatting your drives in FAT32 if you can, after backing up all the files you have on the drive. then see if it works.

  • Using Personal Domain Name with iWeb08

    As per instructions I have setup my domain and made the changes to the Cname records with my Domain Registry ( https://cp.domaincentral.com.au). Domain is noted at the bottom of iWeb as I would expect and also if I upload I get the notation that the page will be seen as the domain.
    Page cannot be found on my domain. I can see with the generic .mac address fine.
    Cname Info:
    jimleonard.net.au. CNAME web.mac.com. 3600 Manual Active Yes
    Have I missed somthing?

    Okay, I have waited a period of 48 hours for updates to be be done with my domain name:
    jimleonard.com.au. NS dns1.domaincentral.net.au. 3600 Auto Active Yes
    jimleonard.com.au. NS dns2.domaincentral.net.au. 3600 Auto Active Yes

    www.jimleonard.com.au. CNAME web.mac.com. 3600 Manual Active Yes
    Config is fine @ .mac:
    Personal Domain
    .Mac is configured to host your domain:

    If you entered the correct settings at your registrar more than 48 hours ago and your iWeb site still doesn't appear at your domain, try these troubleshooting tips.
    I have also made changes and uploaded to"all.mac" I am still unable to see the site with the Domain, all is fine as the .Mac address:

    Have I missed the point?

  • Using regular domain names with iweb?

    Is there a way to direct a normal www. domain to an iweb-created web site without putting all the extra .mac stuff in the URL?

    Hi Elmeroguero,
    If you buy a domain name at GoDaddy say elmeroguero.com for 10$/yr you then will be able to access the site you publish on .mac by entering elmeroguero.com.
    EVERYTHING ELSE is business as usual. You publish your website by hitting publish button in iWeb and so on just as you did until now. All your pages are stored on .Mac and so on. The only thing changing is how you can access your website from browser (nevertheless you will also still be able to access your website typing the web.mac.com/username/ address).
    Regards,
    Cédric
    (Difference between WebForward, WebForward with cloaking and CNAME:
    -WebForward: after you typed elmeroguero.com in the browser you get forwarded to web.mac.com/username/ and web.mac.com/username/ will display in the browser
    -WebForward with Cloaking: after you typed elmeroguero.com in the browser elmeroguero.com will display in the browser and don't change while people browse through your website

  • Domain names with iWeb

    I know there has been a lot of discussion on this topic, but I haven't seen anything that answers my more basic questions. I have a .Mac site and would like to give it a personal domain name. I am handy with my .Mac site but know nothing about web pages, domain names etc and how they function (thus the beauty of .Mac that does the work for me). Any help with the following questions would be greatly appreciated. Please keep responses somewhat simple so I can start to understand...
    1- If I register a domain name and forward it to my .mac site, what exactly is happening. For example, if I get a name from xyz.com that offers me a domain name, web space, email etc, and I use this name for my .mac site, is anything actually hosted by the xyz.com site? Make sense? All I want is the name. I don't plan to use any of the other services so I want to buy the smallest package. If this package only offers 75 MB of storage, but my .Mac site has more than that on it currently, will this cause a problem? Or, am I just simply slapping on the name and continuing to use all the .Mac functions regardless of the domain name's restrictions. Hope I was clear...
    2- Where should I get my domain name? GoDaddy, A Small Orange....?
    I guess that is it for now. I really want to know if I will need to change the way I do things, manage storage etc if I get a personal domain name, or is it business as usuall with a new name?
    Thanks in advance for your help. Nick

  • How do I use my own domain name  with Mac server with iWeb

    For a number of years I have had my own domain name that when typed into a browser it would redirect the browser to my site on the .Mac server. I hear with iLife ’08 I can have my own domain name hosted by .Mac so I know longer have to have the long addresses for each pages the I have now for my site (i.e. the http://web.mac.com/thewildhearts/WildheartPhotography/NatureGalleries.html). How do I go about getting my domain name (wildheartphotography.com) so that Mac will host it and do I need to notify the current host that Mac will be hosting my site now?
    Thanks. I really appreciate the help I get from this forum.
    Pat

    It's very easy, really. You go to your domain control and redirect the address. IPower, for example points the domain name very easily: you just type in the URL of your site and it will point to your mac server.
    I've used GoDaddy before and it is a bit more difficult to "point".
