Reset failure count after?

In DS 5.2 there are three parameters for account (password) lockout:
lockout account after n login failures
reset failure count after n minutes
lockout duration n minutes
I do not fully understand the "reset failure count" parameter and how it affects the other two. Should it be under or over the lockout duration or does that matter? For example, If my lockout failure is 12 and duration is 12 hours, what should the reset be? Whats the best practice too? In general what do people set these at? Thanks.

The main objective of the parameter is to avoid brute-force attacks without affecting normal users that during a more or less long period, sometimes type their passwords incorrectly. This is specially relevant when the lockout is permanent.
I will try to explain the parameter with an example. Imagine you have set the following configuration:
Lockout account after 5 login failures
Reset failuer count after 10 minutes
Lockout duration Forever
A user tries to bind
01/01/2006 13:21:04 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:06 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:07 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:12 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:24 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:42 (bad)
The first five attemps will result in an invalid password error code, but the sixth will result in an account lockout. The user won't be able to bind succesfully until administrative actions are taken, even if providing the correct password.
Nevertheless, if user tries to bind at
01/01/2006 13:21:04 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:06 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:07 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:12 (bad)
01/01/2006 13:21:24 (bad)
02/01/2006 13:21:42 (bad)
02/01/2006 13:21:43 (ok)
this last attemp will result in a success code. As more than 10 minutes have passed since 5 and 6 attemps (a full day), the counter has been reseted and the account hasn't been locked out.

  • Account Lockout - Reset account lockout counter after

    Hi Expert,
    Would you know any disadvantages if we set the Account Lockout Policy - Reset account lockout counter after to longer value e.g. 24 hours or maximum of 99,999 minutes.?
    Regards,
    Jhun

    Hi Jhun,
    I agree with Jack that when we configure account lockout policy, both security and user experience should be considered and balanced.
    If we set the value of Reset account lockout counter after for too long,
    Users may make excessive Help Desk calls, in the meanwhile, if this value is set too short, the attacker would have more chances to crack the system.
    Therefore, administrators should take cautious when configuring policies, protecting organization’s network, and avoiding that un-related person having physical access to machines within organization.

  • It's back...after update..6 resets and counting

    i received the update..saw it in my logs..but today has been back to the same old misery...endless resets..sometimes after 2 mins..
    I am pretty well at the end of my tether on this....If this isn't resolved this time round I am switching this back to ADSL2..at least i got some service with that...
    I regret the day I went near Infinty...I have indeed had an infinite amount of grief.
    Happy to discuss again on the forum..as my online chat queue is only going up in waiting time and not down...btw, I am using my 3G to connect on that.
    Solved!

  • How to reset a counter on external signal in LabView?

    Hallo there!
    I am using LabView v 8.5 and the NI USB-6211 to acquire signals, among them are the following:
    1) angular pulses from a rotary encoder
    2) a reference pulse for the rotary encoder witch will give a pulse on a specific position of the movement for every rotation
    3) value from a pressure sensor
    What I am trying to do is to create a pressure/volume diagram based on the pressure and volume inside a cylinder of an IC engine. To do this, I will need the angle of the engines crankshaft to calculate the pistons position in the cylinder. This way I can calculate the volume and put it in a xy graph to represent the volume (x-axis) and the pressure(y-axis).
    I am using clk0 to count the pulses from the angular encoder, and this works great. However I now need the reference pulse to somehow reset the count at the precise time it goes high in order to precisely know the angular position.
    How can I do this? And how precise will this be? And will I need any kind of synchronization with my pressure measurements? If so, how?
    The relevant part of the program I am working on resembles the Count Digital Events with reset.vi 33 KB as found in this thread. However, I don't know how to get the reference pulse to reset as the stop button is. How can I do this?
    In addition: the fast pulses of the angular encoder = 0-> ~10kHz. I seem to lose information if I use the basic level trigger detection.vi when I put this signal on an analog port.

    Hi Nick,
    If you have an X Series or 2nd Generation cDAQ chassis (basically any cDAQ chassis except for the 9172 or 916x sleeves) then you can implement:
    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,(reset),1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,(reset),1,2...
    You would have to configure an Edge Count Task, set the initial value to 232 - 6 (such that the 6th count causes the counter to rollover, which generates a pulse on the counter output), and enable the count reset using your external signal:
    The count reset isn't currently available for other DAQ devices, but I believe it should be available on M Series (62xx) and TIO (660x, 6624) with a future driver release (some time in 2012).
    If you don't have an X Series (or gen II cDAQ), don't despair.  On other hardware, you can get close to the previous behavior with a counter output task, with the exception that the "reset" signal would only be detected after the 2nd tick after your pulse is output.  Also, the reset signal would have to occur at the beginning to arm the counter the first time.
    Or, you can get the 3rd behavior that you asked for by doing a continuous counter output task with the external signal as the source of the timebase ticks.  For example:
    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
    In toggle mode (default):
    6 ticks of initial delay, 2 ticks high, 7 ticks low, 2 ticks high, 7 ticks low, ... etc.
    In pulse mode:
    6 ticks of initial delay, 9 ticks high, 9 ticks low, 9 ticks high, 9 ticks low, ... etc.
    See here for an overview of the difference of the two modes.  Basically, pulse mode will emit a short pulse when TC is reached, and toggle mode will toggle the state of the counter.  You can't have less than 2 ticks as a high time, low time, or initial delay.

  • Acrobat 8 - "Print/Copies" Reset to "1" after print job

    I am a Windows Acrobat 8 Pro user.
    When I print more than one copy of a PDF document, I select "Print" and change the number of "Copies" to the number I need.
    The feature I request is that the number of "Copies" gets automatically reset to "1" after a print job.
    I find that when I need a quick copy a another PDF document, I often just select the print option button. When I do this I get the same number of copies that I requested for my previous job because the number of copies is sticky and does not reset itself.
    Microsoft Word has a number of copies feature but this number resets to "1" copy after a print job.
    This would be a very helpful feature for Acrobat.
    Douglas Meredith

    As a counter, I find the reset to 1 that WORD does very annoying. I weekly print out 9 copies of a page, front and back. When I turn it over, I always have to reset to 9 again. I think the reset is a good idea on closing. However, during active use, I would rather see it left as is or give the user an option.

  • Camera Reset Frame Count

    Hi All,
    new here. Been using LR 4 on MBP 09 for about a year now, Love it!
    I'm shooting with a Fuji X100 exclusively (my only camera =). I recently updated firmware on it, and its reset frame count (up to 9500 frames). This means that the same frame number is now referring to two photos in LR. Should I start a new catalogue so I don't have conflicts? Or is there any other way to fix this problem? I checked X100 manual, I cannot choose to start from a certain frame number.
    Thanks for your help

    ...just on the question of starting from a given frame number, I have a comment and a suggestion.
    First, it is possible to have LR rename images at the time of import, assuming you are using LR to copy the images from camera card (not available if you copy the images into the computer yourself, and then use the "Add" method of import). As part of  this renaming, you can have LR include an "image counter" group of digits, which increment continually. That replaces the camera generated filename with an enforced unique numbering (some people include the capture date in the filename too - or other attributes - it can be defined to suit.
    As dj_paige says, it is not a problem to repeat a filename within a given catalog, but you may still prefer to have some unique element there.
    Next, while I don't know the X100 myself, this question of controlling camera image numbering comes up fairly often. Many cameras have two alternative modes: one where the camera keeps remembering the highest image number used, even after a card is removed; the other, where it promptly forgets about that each time ("goldfish mode").
    When a new card is inserted, cameras tend to take whatever internal counter may have been remembered from before (which will only apply if the camera is not in goldfish mode) AND take the highest number image found on the card, add 1 to whichever is higher, and use that for the next image taken. This becomes the new counter value.
    So: asssuming your camera offers these functions (they may be called different things) - you can set the camera to a given image counter value, by doing the following:
    Take a single image on a camera card. Turn off the remembering/incrementing of image number between camera cards, so that any prior counter value is forgotten. Take the camera card out, put it in a card reader and rename it to the image number that you would like to continue from. Put the card in the camera and turn on the remembering of image numbers. Take another picture: it will get an image number one higher, than the one you manually renamed. Becasue the counter is now persistent, this will continue regardless of which card is used - except if any card is ever put into the camera which has a higher value than the current counter, the counter will leapfrog that and set itself to a higher value still. To get it back down again, you would need to repeat the whole procedure above.
    Personally, I don't much care what images are physically called so far as LR is concerned - but I do prefer to have the camera image number increment continually nonetheless - which it has done ever since it was new.

  • ACE show serverfarm - failure counter does not incremented on Probe-Failure event

    Hi,
    Despite of probe-failure the failure counter is not incremented. Is there any correlation between the configured probe and the failure counter?
    (Custom script probe is used for this serverfarm)
    # sh serverfarm xxxxxSt
    serverfarm     : xxxxxSt, type: HOST
    total rservers : 2

    Thanks,
    Attila

    Hi Attila,
    The Connection Failure counter under show serverfarm is for Loadbalanced Connections which are failing.
    If Probes are failing, this counter will not increment.
    The Connection failure counter can increment for various reasons some of them are,
    - Server not responding to the SYN packet sent by ACE for Loadbalanced connection
    - Server sending Reset to the SYN packet sent by ACE for Loadbalanced connection
    To check on stats for Probe, you can run "show probe detail" command.
    Hope this helps,
    Best Regards,
    Rahul

  • Reset clock count/encoder counts

    Is there a way to programatically reset the clock count using labview? I am using an encoder and an e series DAQ board. When I am counting with the encoder, I come to a point where I would like to reset it to zero. I see that the examples all show that the count is reset after the loop is complete, but I would like to reset it during the loop to use it as a positioning tool. Reset to zero then start counting again from that point. Is this possible? Thanks.
    Using Labview 6.1 and MIO16E DAQ Board.

    Use the "Counter Control.vi" (Data Acquesition-> Counter->Advanced Counter). With the control code 1 you can resets the counter. Alternatively you may use the VI with control codes 4 and 2 which disarms and arms the counter again ("If you follow a disarm with another arm, then the acquisition restarts from the beginning"). That should do.

  • Have been advised by my email provider (recently blocked account requiring password reset) that they will only reset the password after a proven anti viru and malware scan has been done on ipad and iphone. Is this necessary and if so what do i use

    Have been advised by my email provider (recently blocked account requiring password reset) that they will only reset the password after a proven anti virus and malware scan has been done on ipad and iphone. Is this necessary and if so what do i use

    As KP has pointed out, there actually aren't any anti-virus programs in the App Store. There are a few that allow you to scan e-mail or stuff like that, and a few that provide you with information about malware and new threats for other systems. But none are available that can scan your iOS device for malware, because the security restrictions in iOS do not permit any apps to have that kind of access to anything. Which means that you also cannot be infected with a virus (unless you have jailbroken your device).
    If your account got compromised, that had nothing whatsoever to do with your iPad. Someone simply hacked it remotely. Happens all the time. It's really amazing that, in this day and age, e-mail providers are so ignorant of technology and how their own systems get compromised that they would try to require you to run software that does not exist!

    You need to get a refnum for the module.  The simplest way to do this is to drag the module in the project onto your block diagram.  It will drop a refnum constant for the module.  You will find all kinds of useful properties and methods on this refnum.  In this case the refnum is of a class named "SD Module" (where "SD" stands for "Specialty Digital") and it has a method on it for resetting counters.  See the attached screenshot of the block diagram.

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
