Newbie q: How to verify that encryption is working

Hello,
In a sharepoint environment, we have installed a certificate and force encryption=on, according to :
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bde679d9-ff83-4fa7-b402-42e336a97106/force-encryption-on-sql-server-not-working?forum=sqlsecurity 
How can I verify that the encryption is actually working? I saw wireshark but I don't know to use it.
Thank you
Christos

Basically if you encrypt all of DataBases of SharePoint, you can open one DataBase and use Select statement to verify if your can read the Data.
Connection encryption is something quite different than database encryption.
The most ideal way to verify connection encryption is to use a packet sniffer such as Wireshark.  Since that's no something you know how to use and are resistant to learning, I'd run the following on my SQL Server and look for connections which have
an encrypt_option of false:
select * from sys.dm_exec_connections
Connections which are encrypted should have an encrypt_option of TRUE.

  • How to verify that rented movie works

    I rent movies on iTunes to watch on my iPad during air travel but the last time I did this, they would not play. When I got home, I found out that they had not been downloaded despite showing up on my iPad. I'm going to travel again in a few weeks so I downloaded some movies today. How can I make sure they are there and will work without starting the 24 hr time period that rented movies have to be viewed within once they are started?
    Patti

    You can't.
    Can you provide more detail regarding what happened? What did you see when you attempted to view the movies? What makes you think that the download did not take place? When the download is in process, the iPad shows you a decrementing timer. Did you see that?
    You might want to try a system Reset as it cures many ills, is harmless, and takes only a minute or so:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A Reset does NOT delete apps, photos, movies, music or any other data.
    Also, you might wish to download the 4.2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 170.

    oracle_num=`expr $check_stat`
    if [ $oracle_num -lt 1 ]

  • How to verify that the variable "does not contain" a value?

    Hi
    I am using CP 7.0.1.237.
    We want to use Text Area widget for a custom quiz and verify an answer. While we figured out how to verify the existence of certain keywords, we are not able to figure out how to verify that the content should NOT contain certain keywords. For example, we want to ensure that the text entered in this widget should not contain "Transformation" and "Non-compliant".
    Is this possible at all?
    Thanks
    Sreekanth

    Here's what the solution might look like in JavaScript.  This would be for SWF output and aimed at Cp 7.  For Cp 8, this would still work for SWF output, but you'd probably want to take advantage of the new unified JS API that gets and sets Cp variables for both SWF and HTML5 output.  You can read more about that here:  Common JS interface
    //Get the text area value from Captivate (SWF output Only)
    var cpTextAreaValue = document.Captivate.cpEIGetValue('m_VarHandle.v_TextArea);
    //convert the value to lower case to properly compare
    cpTextAreaValue = cpTextAreaValue.toLowerCase();
    //Check if text area value contains the words "transformation" or "non-compliant"
    if(cpTextAreaValue.indexof('organizational') > -1 && cpTextAreaValue.indexof('behavioral ') > -1 && cpTextAreaValue.indexof('managerial') > -1 && cpTextAreaValue.indexof('transformation') < 0 && cpTextAreaValue.indexof('non-compliant') < 0){
      //the text area has the correct answer so increment varScore
      //get the current score from Captivate
      var score = document.Captivate.cpEIGetValue('m_VarHandle.varScore');
      //increment score by 1
      score++;
      //set score in Captivate
      document.Captivate.cpEISetValue('m_VarHandle.varScore', score);
    } else {
      //the text area does not have the correct answer so show message to user inside of Captivate
      document.Captivate.cpEISetValue('m_VarHandle.v_message', 'Answer is not correct');
    This JS has not been tested.  Note that the "does not contain" operator is done using the "indexof" operator in JS.

  • How to verify that embedded OC4J is loading Custom LoginModule?

    I've written a custom login module to authenticate against a custom datastore. I've added a system property
    java.security.auth.login.config=C:\javadev\...\jaas.configas recommended by Yvonne here: Re: Custom LoginModule used by BC4J
    I still get the following when I load a UIX page out of this module:
    msg=JBO-33021: Failed authenticate user nullThere are many debug System.out(...) statements in the code (including in the initialize() function) but none are showing up in the OC4J console. Does anyone know how to verify that the LoginModule is indeed getting loaded? Is it normal for these System.out() statements not to show in the OC4J console?
    I get the impression that the LoginModule is not being loaded but I'm not sure if those traces are enough...
    Thanks,
    /sfl

    Thanks much for the prompt reply and debugging tips Steve and Avi!
    I used both switches (-DApplicationServerDebug and -verbose:class) and still no sign of the class being loaded; none of the traces (I did trace in the construct, though I failed to mention in my original post) nor do any of the app server or jvm debug messages show any sign of the LoginModule being loaded. So now I'm fairly certain I'm going about the wrong way to get this module loaded. Should I also be posting this to the JDeveloper forum?
    My application module configuration is as follows:
    jbo.security.config=<blank> (is this right?)
    jbo.security.context=oracle.security.jazn
    jbo.security.enforce=Must
    jbo.security.loginmodule=customModuleThe command line to the JVM contains:
    -Djava.security.auth.login.config=C:\javadev\jdev9052\j2ee\home\config\jaas.config[yes Avi, I was unfortunately imposed an M$ env. by the powers that be : ( ]
    And, well I've been trying a lot of different things w/ the jaas.config file:
    customModule{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    myApp{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    myPack.LookupModuleLocal{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    myPack.LookupModule{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    Ws-MyProg-webapp{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    default{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    current-workspace-app{
    myPack.controller.MyLoginModule required;
    };Any idea where I'm going wrong? Do I need to do anything else to get this module loaded? At first I thought I needed to modify the jazn-data.xml file but I saw a note in another thread Custom LoginModule used by BC4J which says that it's not necessary to modify it when using a custom LoginModule. Is this right, or should I be modifying that file?
    Thanks,

    Hello wilsontot_too,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing on your iPhone.  It sounds like you are not noticing transparency on your iPhone.  It may be that you have "Increase Contrast" turned on in your iPhone settings.
    I recommend verifying that Increase Contrast is turned off in Settings>General>Accessibility.

  • How to test that my JDBC work?

    I'm migrating an application from Weblogic 5.1 to 6.1 and already it's
    driving
    nuts with all the huge changes.
    Essentially, in the past, we had our own directory structure and
    script files where they referenced the necessary Weblogic jars... and
    weblogic looked through your PATH environment variable to find any
    weblogic.properties file. NOW, Weblogic forces you to create a
    config/domain directory where the config file is and forces you to use
    a DefaultWebApp as well... or so it seems.
    Anyway, I'm trying to take this migration one step at a time and deal
    with things like the EJB changes further down the road.
    Right now, I'm just trying to get the server to come up and recognize
    my database connection, however... either, the stuff I have IS working
    and 6.1 is just not verbose in its messages or I am doing something
    wrong... cause essentially, I get the following after I run the
    server:
    Starting WebLogic Server ....

    TestConnectionsOnReserve="true" TestTableName="dual"
    URL="jdbc:oracle:thin:@domain:1521:ORDdev"/>
    Now, shouldn't weblogic at least parse this and try to connect to my
    database and tell me YES or NO as to whether it was successful????
    I've run the 'dbping' outside of Weblogic and that was successful. Is
    there anyway to verify that this is working?
    And also, I don't have a JDBCDataSource... I didn't need one with
    5.1... we use Toplink which kind of hides a lot of the database
    access... and when we did need a database connection, a
    javax.sql.DataSource object was created by doing a context look up for
    "weblogic.jdbc.jts.oraclePool". So, I'm not quite sure, what I would
    put in a JDBCDataSource element.
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks!

    Hi Michael,
    When the server comes up open the console in the browser, select the
    connection pool and select monitoring you will see some information about
    the connections.
    Most of the messages to the sever window are suppressed unless you enable
    info messages in the server, you can do that from the console or by editing
    the config.xml file. By default you will see Errors if any. so in your case,
    if you didnt see any error your connection pool must have comeup properly.
    you can check it in the monitoring tab.
    regarding the JDBCDataSource , you dont need one unless your application is
    looking for one. your current application should work with minimal or no
    programming changes to it.
    Its always recommended to use the DataSource for getting a connection from
    the pool. DataSource helps you use the same code to access a connection from
    the server side as well as the client side so you dont have to code the
    server side and client side components differently.

  • How to verify that the SCCM data is importing in Service Manager properly

    Hi,
    we are using SCSM 2012 R2 with SCCM 2012 R2 connector.
    How could I verify that the configuration manager data is importing properly in Service Manager.
    Since many of the systems are not showing installed application in service manager that are showing in Configuration Manager, therefore, I have to verify that SCCM data is importing properly in Service Manager.
    Further, we I check the incidents, affected CIs are missing or blank.
    Please suggest.
    Regards, Syed Fahad Ali

    If you look at the history of the CI it will tell you everything that is being written to it. If some of your systems are not showing their installed software, you may want to check that the ConfigMgr connector is even syncing that particular machine.
    If you look at the CI history and don't see any entries from "System Center Configuration Manager", the machine may not be in the appropriate collection. If you take a look at the configuration of the connector, you will see the collections that
    are synced. In order for a machines information to be populated, it must be in one of the selected collections.

    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, scroll to the bottom and see the time/date at the very bottom (under Back Up Now).   Then as a precaution, make a second backup on your computer using iTunes by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Back Up.  Then go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchased.  Then you'll have a second backup should anything go wrong with one of them.

    Hi,

    Thanks

    It's the storage that's important. You can run a database on an Exadata DB servers that doesn't access Exadata storage, in which case Smart Scans etc... will be disabled. So you may want to check your asm diskgroups. They have an attribute that tells whether they reside on Exadata storage or not. You can use something like this query to show you that information.
    <pre>
    column exadata_storage for a20
    with b as (select group_number, value from v$asm_attribute where name = 'cell.smart_scan_capable')
    select a.name diskgroup, state, b.value Exadata_storage
    from v$asm_diskgroup a, b
    where a.group_number = b.group_number(+)
    and a.name like nvl('&diskgroup',a.name)
    order by 1
