Remote Device Wipe needs Device Administrator

Just updated to v2.2. I see that there is a new security function that allows you to set parameters to remotely wipe and/or lock your phone if parameters are ignored, such as if it is lost/stolen and the wrong password is entered...To activate this, I understand that a Device Administrator must be "selected" in Settings/Security/Select Device Administrator menu. I have no options available in this area. I have looked into Google, Verizon, misc forums and can find nothing.
Can anyone tell me how to "select the device administrator" so I may activate the Remote Wipe?
Thanks in advance.

I came across this thread as I was researching the same issue, and thought I'd respond in case others ended up here:
I had a coworker volunteer his Droid for the test, and it took a couple iterations to get Remote Wiping to work.
The phone is the original Droid, running OS version 2.2. The Exchange server is Exchange 2003, with the following options:
Within Exchange System Manager, (Root) -> Global Settings -> Mobile Services -> Properties
Exchange ActiveSync group
Enable user initiated synchronization: checked
Enable up-to-date notification via SMTP and Text Messaging: checked
Enable notifications to user specified SMTP addresses: checked
Enable Direct Push over HTTP(S): checked
Outlook Mobile Access group
Enable Outlook Mobile Access: unchecked
Enable unsupported devices: unchecked
These settings are here for completeness -- I did not change these while working with the Droid. The settings I had to play with were under the "Device Security..." button:
"Enforce password on device" is the only option I have checked at the moment. I'll likely set sane options for password length and so forth. The one setting that I had set at one point when Remote Wipe was failing was "Allow access to devices that do not fully support password settings". It appears that you don't want this setting turned on.
As far as I can tell, enforcing the password is enough to have the Droid ask to make the EMail application one of the Device Administrators. Once EMail is a Device Administrator, Remote Wipe works (it does not clear SD card contents, but restores the Droid to its factory settings, requiring reactivation and whatnot.)
I have further testing to do, and will post any additional findings to this thread.

I have 3dparty software wirelessly with a cryptographic authentication system without my consent (seems to be new technology developed by stanford) obtaining ownership of my iPhone 4s software and controlling it with remote device to jail break. Now what?

I have 3rd party software wirelessly injected and used on my iphone with a cryptographic authentication system without my consent (seems to be new technology developed by stanford and apple security is not updated for this technology) obtaining ownership of my iPhone 4s software and controlling it with remote device to jail breaking my phone, adding and removing software, changing settings all from a remotely controled device from different location (I have a Mac address I'd of this device to know for sure). Almost undetectable. When I look at the legal section of my phone it shows a list of all the unauthorized 3rd party software "as is" copyright encrypted on the phone. This is the most basic way to legally steal software of any kind. Because of this legalality 3rd party ownership have total control of certain software correlated with hardware use including visualization technology, etc. most people luckily will never have this happen to them so it's unlikely many readers have not a clue of what I'm saying currently. Either way, without needing to obtain specific warranty of any kind "as is" copyright control makes system restores not a solution because the source code is not directly encrypted on the actual hardware device only a copy right notice must appear on the specific device 3rd party software validation making it extremely difficult for me to take control of the situation. Apple claims their iOS technology prevents this type copyright obstruction from being possible, however, according to my phone a new form of technology was used developed by Tom wu of Stanford university called the STANFORD SRP AUTHENTICATION TECHNOLOGY which uses Some form of cryptographic authentication system and uses quote "secure remote password" which seems to suceed in hacking iOS apple technology apple claims is not possible to jailbreak an unstolen phone or without the owners consent As well as loading the device with 3rd party copyright Notices to make all of this legalized. My phone shows atleast 30 pages worth of legalized 3rd party copyright permissions! Yesterday my apple care provider labeled me a jailbreaker and refused to look at my legal documented proof which completely blew my mind because it voides my apple care contract I spent 100 on. This employee did not take all factors into consideration and made quick assumptions as well as verbally speaking to me as I'm an automatic criminal. I left the store yesterday with no payed insurance help on a problem I had no control over and couldn't prevent, leaving with voided contracts. This is an apple users worst nightmare and I have spent days researching all of this like i am some kind of lawyer only to be able to use my phone the way it should and spent alot of money on. I can legally backup any claim I have just wrote above currently and have a large source of data collected to prove apple is wrong in voiding insurance support on this issue. The problem lies in apple avoiding and not wanting to believe their software can legally be obtained ot "hacked". Yet still labeled a jailbreaker basically.. What should I do????? Been to local apple store 3 times and rebooted my phone as well sprint service restore 4 times and spoke with reps twiice on the phone. Spoke with my phone provider who said apple has full control over these matters so they can't help me. My case is according to apple "still open"...Anyone else heard of this or of Stanford's office of technology licensing? Maybe I need to buy a blackberry again or just use a landline so I can stop being my own lawyer and focus on other productive areas in life instead of this horrible mess. I shouldn't have to prove to apple I not a jailbreaker they should have to prove I'm one before voiding support I desperately need!!

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

Yes, Tom Wu of Stanford wrote a paper on something called Secure Remote Access Protocol. It's a form of Asymetric Key Exchange and has nothing to do with hacking anything. It's actually intended to protect data.

Need more info here. I just tested it on Swedish and it works just fine,
but when you say "When I change keyboard layuot to Russian" does that
mean that the default on your machine or the target machine is not
Russian?

Backing up a time capsules to a remote device across internet?

Hi
has anyone any experience of backing up the time capsule (backup and NAS) over the Internet to a remote device (either a machine, NAS or another time capsule)?
I'm trying to do a home (cheap) version of colocating the time capsule (primary location my place, secondary location/back up location my parents).
Just wondering if there is any advice since most discussions seem to centre around the archive feature via the USB port which does not help since I need to remember to take it off site!
Any suggestions would be great
Thanks

The only thing I've done with a Time Capsule over the Internet is to copy individual files. It takes a long time. I'd expect an attempt to copy a lot more would take an unacceptably long time.

MBAM 2.5 - How does it deal with remote devices?

Hello,
My organization is currently looking to migrate towards using MBAM from McAfee's Endpoint Encryption product. Our environment may be a little different from a lot of other companies though.
I've watched a few installation guides (including the newest from TechEd this year) and still have a couple of questions for deployment for our organization.
The computers that will be encrypted, they will be set up internally on our network and then shipped out of our network perimeter. This means that communication needs to take place over the internet. Does the MBAM server support open web communication with
remote devices over the web (assuming over port 443 or designated port)?
Secondly, if we need to restrict access to a computer remotely (as in disable a user) does MBAM automatically take care of this for us, or will we need a open facing domain controller that can be hit from the web as well?

First, MBAM clients requires access to the MBAM service to update compliance status as well as store new recovery keys (if one is used). Other than that it is fine to use the PC outside of the corp network without access.
Secondly, MBAM doesn't help you to disable a user on a local machine. It doesn't manage users at all. Perhaps I missunderstand you.

Deactivate sony enterprise service in security- device administrator

I had deactivated enterprise service in device administrator and found that it become activated after a few hours. This did not happen in the previous firmware but happened after recent update. The enterprise service drains battery. Sony, kindly explain why is the service automatically activated! It will be good if the service can be disabled. Consumer don't need this service, only corporate environment does.

I got the same problem.
It is terrible annoying.
On my phone, it is activated as device administrator after each restart.
I am using Kaspersky as my device administrator, and for Kaspersky to be able to delete my device or lock it, if lost or stolen, it needs to be the only administrator.
So when enterprise service activates it self as administrator at a restart, means that my security in case of stolen or lost telephone, is none excistent.
Really terrible Sony.. Please find a solution!!!
It even activates it self as administrator, even though I disabled enterprise service it in the apps menu.
Let me be the one, who decides which device administrators i want, and not the phone!
A thing like this, if it cannot be fixed, will be what prevents me from buying a Sony phone next time.

Any advise will be much appreciated.

Hi,
What is the device that has the IP address 172.28.209.110? Does it or any of the other devices on the way to the ASA have any type of ACL or anything else that could block traffic?
Can you see any connection on the ASA (or any logs gathered from the ASA) from the host 172.16.2.25?
Is there some TCP ports listening on the server that should answer to connection attempts? You could try TCP Ping from the ASA to those ports
ping tcp 172.16.2.25 <destination port>
You can also give a "source" address in the above command if you need. In the event that you are running ASA software below 8.4(1) then the above "ping tcp" wont be supported.

Remote device

Hi all!
The question is how to connect a remote device to the LabView? I've got HS digitizer in PCI slot of Linux machine and I need to link it with LabView witch is installed under Window... I understand that the question is damp but I'm new to all this staff... Or can anybody give me a link to start with?
Thanks a lot.
Message Edited by BABAY on 09-18-2006 10:13 AM

Babay,
i am not sure if this is solveable at all to your needs. Why's that?
a) Linux != Linux. NI supports the three major distributions: SuSE, RedHat and Mandriva (formerly Mandrake).
b) Refer to this link
what you should do to prepare the system for sharing the device. I
doubt that this can be done in Linux the same way because NI-HSDIO is not supported in Linux (at least not now). So the device should not work in your current setup at all....
c) Regarding this link i gave in first part of b), the way of usage is
RT-> Windows, not Windows -> RT. Well, it should work both ways,
but i dont know for sure....

Transparent FW and pinging to remote device

Hi everyone,
I was reading about transparent FW it says
Unlike a transparent switch, however, the device will not flood frames out interfaces for an unknown MAC address destination. Instead the ASA will respond with an ARP request for a directly connected device. If the destination is remote, the ASA will attempt to ping the remote device.
Question
How ASA will ping the remote device will it ping by static route config on ASA ?
Say we have transparent FW between 2 switches and one side say switch1 has a server is connected to it.
How ASA will ping this server?
Now we can say this server as remote device if it is on different subnet then the ASA interface?
Seems ASA will have mac address of directly connected inetrfaces.
Thanks
Mahesh

Hi,
I actually configured one of my ASA5505 as Transparent last night and tested it abit.
I had NO default route on the ASA5505 and the connections from the host behind the Transparent firewall worked just fine. Though I didnt use any management connection to the ASA other than console cable.
I guess for remote management connections and certain traffic originated by the ASA itself, the default route is needed BUT not for the actual host traffic through the ASA. The host already has a default gateway configured and it will ARP for its MAC address through the Transparent ASA and already knows where to forward the traffic to reach the remote host. ASA just has to determine where to forward the traffic.
I enabled several debugs on the ASA and it would indeed seem that when the ASA still has absoletely no knowledge of MAC address behind its "inside" or "outside" it will at the start use Traceroute.
I will post the debugs shortly.

After iTunes 11 I get error 15006, cannot connect to remote device

Since I've updated to iTunes 11 I get error code 15006. I can go into iTunes and re-select the remote device (an Airport Express) and it works fine. If I put my computer to sleep it generates the 15006 error. It happens at my work computer too which runs the same basic network.

Hello, Darktowerfan1.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are a couple articles that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

Error Message "The Remote device or resourse wont accept connection, not set up to accept connection from port https"

Starting in Firefox 14, Firefox will guess an address and place it in the address bar (AutoFill feature). If you have ever connected to the site using a secure (HTTPS) connection, then Firefox will try to connect security to the address suggested by the AutoFill feature. To work around this you can:
* Edit the address to force Firefox to interpret your entry literally. For example, if there is a trailing / you can remove it.
* Turn off the URL bar AutoFill feature and just use the AutoSuggest drop-down.
* Clear Firefox's memory of the site so it doesn't default to a secure connection (however, this also removes any bookmarks you have to pages on the site).
To disable the in-address-bar autofill without losing the suggestions that appear below the bar:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''autofill''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.urlbar.autoFill''' to toggle it from true to false. You're done with about:config and you can close this tab.
"Forget about this site" will clear cache, history, bookmarks, and permissions for the site, and probably any saved certificate. There are two ways to get to this:
* History > Show All History, right-click an entry for the site > "Forget about this site"
* Type or paste about:permissions in the address bar and press Enter, then select the site from the list on the left side, and click the "Forget about this site" button on the right side
Depending on the size of your history and cache, this may lock Firefox up for a minute or two while everything is cleansed.

Using an iPad2 as a remote device for a PC

that would depend on the remote desktop app you're using
as ios don't come with one out of the box you must have downloaded an
app from app store

How to disable device provisioning ("device administrator") in sbs 2011 ?

Hi,
When a device that supports device provisioning trying to add an Exchange mail account, even when the "allow non-provisionable devices" checkbox is selected, it still force it to accept "device administrator' policy in order to add the Exchange
mail account.
Is there a way to disable this option completely on my SBS 2011 ? or even better, disable this request\requirement for specific user?
Some of them just don't want to give us this control, and I do understand that, it's their personal devices and as a company we don't require that from them.
Many thanks!
