SID for Windows 7

I understand that I need to use sysprep to clear out certain Unique information from a cloned machine.  However, the image that came with the machine is getting an error whenever i run sysprep with the /generalize option, and it will proceed with to
the OOBE screen.  It would however, go through if i don't use the /generalize option - but i think it does not clear out the SID without it.
Is there an alternate way to clear/generate the SID besides sysprep and NewSID -which i believe is no longer supported by microsoft.   Or perhaps is there a way to do it via AD GPO?
Thanks!

Hello,
please see about sysprep
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc721940(v=ws.10).aspx and how to use it
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc721973(v=ws.10).aspx
And this is and was the ONLY supported tool from Microsoft. NewSID NEVER was supported.

  • Looking for "Window Manager\Window Manager Group" SID

    Hi. I am trying to find the SID for "Windows Manager\Window Manager Group". If anyone has that, I'd appreciate it. I am trying to build my "base build" Security Template for Server 2012, and I need to assign the default User Rights to that group, as it is
    out-of-the-box. Problem is that the GUI does not accept that group name as valid, but I can see that the group is assigned user rights in the Local Security Policy. I typically just use a file ACL to do this (add the ACE and then run
    icacls to get the SID), but that group name is not valid within that tool either. My guess if that this new "Windows Manager\Window Manager Group" group is a well-known SID. Thanks.

    Ironically the SID is not listed on Microsoft's web page for well know
    SIDs. I also noticed that when I dump the local users using powershell, every group and user is listed that I would expect to see, but this one is not in that list. It seems like it should be pretty easy for Microsoft to say what this does and when it can
    be safely removed...
    I figure one of two possibilities. Either this only matters when a specific feature is installed / active, or it is some remnant from development for a feature or implementation that didn't make it into the release to manufacturing. What ever the case it
    would be nice if we could get clarification.

  • If i install microsoft office after partitioning my hard drive for windows, will it be available on both sides of the partition?

    If i install microsoft office after partitioning my hard drive for windows, will it be available on both sides of the partition? Will it be universal for the computer or would i have to install it on both operating systems? Or, if I install office BEFORE partitioning, will it be available on both platforms after i partition?

    If I understand your questions correctly, then I'm inclined to say no. Office for Windows and Office for Mac are two completely different applications. if you run via BootCamp, only one partition will boot.
    If you want to run Mac and Windows at the same time, you could do what I did:
    Get Parallels
    Install Windows as VM on top of Parallels
    Install Office in Windows
    Now, you can run your OS X, jump into Parallels' WIndows and use Office that way.
    It needs a lot of RAM, 4 is a bare minimum to realy make it sensible, 8 wouldn't hurt.

  • How to disable webview cache for Windows Phone 8.1 Runtime universal app?

    Is it possible to disable cache for the Webview control for a Windows Phone 8.1 runtime universal app? My App seems to be remembering the information it received the first time. My app logs me into a service and when I go back to rerun app in the emulator
    (without completing shutting down the emulator) it logs me in automatically rather than giving me the prompt. This behavior is in the NavigationCompleted handler if that helps explain a bit more on where I am hitting this issue.
    If I were to shut off the emulator completely and then restart it then I am prompted for the login name and password again. I have gotten over this cache issue, when I was using the HttpClient in other part of my app, by sending the no-cache in the header
    as:
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
    Can I do something similar for the webview control?
    thanks
    mujno

    Hi mujno,
    As I know currently there is no programmatically way to clean cache for WebView, see Matt's blog:How to clear the WebView cache
    However if you are developing an enterprise app, you should be able to invoke some scripts to clean for you, see this for more information:Brokered

  • Microsoft all ready has an update for Windows Phone 8.1 Verizon customers still don't have WP 8.1. UGH!

    Microsoft has all ready released an update to Windows Phone 8.1. Us Verizon customers don't even have WP 8.1. *** Verizon?  My contract with Verizon is up in November this is the tipping point.  I am not going to renew my contract.  I will just buy the phone out right and sign up for Straight Talk.  Then I don't need to have the "Nanny service provider (Verizon)" telling me when I am able to obtain a device update.  Thanks for nothing Verizon.

    On one side, I can understand that maybe (and that's a BIG maybe) Verizon wants to make sure they have enough data (pardon the pun) regarding the successful adaptation of the update for it's customers in order to make sure everything goes smoothly.  However, I find that Verizon likes to keep customers in the dark regarding time frames.  It's interesting to see on some of the similar titles message boards entries on this topic have Verizon monitors ready to wipe out entries if they violate terms of service on the forums.  But, when asked directly about time frames for Windows updates, you either get a link to some Verizon news page (which is of no help), or nothing at all.  A number of people called Verizon customer service and get varied answers like: "Sometime this summer", "Soon", or even an "I don't know, they don't even tell us either"...which is the answer I got one time.  Very discouraging.  I had a choice between the Windows Phone, or a Samsung Galaxy phone.  I chose Windows because of it's features.  Beginning to regret it now, since support for it on Verizon appears to be dismal at best.

    Hi AmilaEranga,
    I try to test it in my side, I could get the JavaScript Text Editor in my side.
    So I doubt that it would be your VS IDE issue. If possible, please download it from the official site here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30664
    And then repair your VS, test it again.
    Or you could run the following command lines with the Developer Command Prompt of VS2012:
    devenv /setup

  • Call/video not working between Cisco jabber for Windows and VCS control C40s

    Hello,
    I've been struggling with no luck how to make a call using Cisco Jabber for Windows 9.6.0 registered to CM 8.6.2 with intercluster ICT to another CM 8.6.2 where we have a VCS Control 7.0.2 via GK H225, and all C40s are registered as H.323.
    The VCS has interworking between H323 and SIP, however not sure if there is any problem with that. Assuming it is ok, not sure either if I'm facing any interoperability issue because in my remote site I have C40 (H323 registered at VCS and SIP listening mode) and cisco jabber for windows which is SIP based.
    If is not possible, would I be able to change my C40 from H323 to SIP at VCS, or have both H323/SIP registered at VCS? If so, will I need to change as well instead of GK I'll have to establish a SIP Trunk between the CM and VCS?
    Another thing I do not believe either I would be able to have one VCS connected with two clusters, right?
    I'm just trying to find a solution in case my current topology is not compatible, but feel free if you have any better idea to make it work.
    Anyway here is what is happening:
    When I make a call from my cisco jabber windows to C40 using alias number. The call is being redirected just fine to the C40 and it rings, however when someoene or the auto answer picks it up, the call dropped right away.
    However, if I enabled the MTP in my CSF device, the call gets longer before dropping. I was even able to see my jabber " start video" turns green, before was grayed out all the time and the call dropped faster. I hear a fast busy tone. 
    I'm able to provide SDI traces, logs, diagnostic sip/h323 calls from VCS in order to know for sure if this is an incompatible issue or something I can workaround.
    Let me know if someone of you are interested in read these logs or could point me on the right direction.
    Thanks!

    Ok,
    I have looked at both logs. I have to mentinon though that you didnt
    provide the log that shows the h323 setup between cucm and the VCS. This
    is  most likely because the call originated from a different cucm than
    the ones you provided the logs from.
    The call would have orginated from the first cucm in the cucm group of
    this trunk: Name=RL_TRUNK_VIDEO
    The cucm ip will be : 10.252.53.10.
    This is the VCS log that confirms where the h323 request originated

  • Jabber for Windows 9.1(3) - All network connections fail at least once a day

    Hi,
    We have Jabber for Windows 9.1(3) running, with the MSI 3.2 installed as well.
    At least once a day my computer stops making network connections (Outlook gets disconnected, Internet Explorer cannot connect to Google, Chrome also fails). When I shut down and restart Jabber all network IO resumes.
    Has anyone seen this behavior?
    I've made two problem reports for this. Is anyone interested?
    Regards,
    Erik Tamminga
    PS. Server side we're running all 9.1 versions.

    We had the same issue and logged a TAC case, and the final result was to uninstall media services as mentioned above. Obviously now you no longer have desk phone video.
    The new 9.2 beta has a new media service version, and the rollout of the new 9.2 client is mid march I believe, so hopefully this rectifies the problems, because if it doesn't I think this would not be a good thing for Jabber as a product unfortunately.
    Cheers

  • Jabber for Windows SSO

    I'm using Jabber for Windows with a Webex backend for IM&P with CUCM and Unity Connection on-site.
    It looks like I can use SSO for logging into Webex with Jabber but I wanted to confirm if it will also work for logging into CUCM with the phone services account as well as for logging into Unity Connection for IMAP so that our users don't have to enter the phone services or voicemail account details manually.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Brian Meade

    Hi Eric,
    No specific configuration is done on CWMS for Jabber for Windows integration. All this is done on Jabber side. I would advise you to reach out to Jabber Clients community or open a TAC ticket with Jabber for Windows team.

  • Jabber for Windows SSO with CWMS

    We've configured our WebEx Meetings Server 2.0 for SSO with ADFS 3.0 and it works in various browsers.  The docs for Jabber for Windows say that it can do SSO to WebEx Meetings Server but there are no details in the configuration guide and I haven't been able to get it to work. After I turn on SSO, Jabber won't authenticate with the Meetings Server.  All the guide says is
    If you configure SSO with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server, Cisco Jabber can seamlessly integrate with the SSO environment. In this case, you do not need to specify credentials in order for users to authenticate with Cisco WebEx Meetings Server.
    Any ideas?

  • Cisco Jabber for window & multiway

    Is the Cisco Jabber client for Windows (CUCM) able to dial the URI that gets specified in the SIP Refer message from Conference Factory?
    We have the SIP route patterns in place on the CUCM side to match the VCS's sip domain, but the refer messages still go un-answered.
    Multiway works fine when only VCS endpoints are involved.
    Thanks!

  • Cisco Jabber for Windows Client SDK

    Is there an SDK for Cisco Jabber for Windows client? I could only find the Web SDK. Are there no other SDKs that would let me control features of the Jabber Windows Client?

    And in order to avoid TAPI limitation, they say they have started using Jabber which controls all phone functionalities through an Application User connected to the Call Manager.
    Assuming they are referring to the normal Jabber for Windows/Mac/iOS/Android applications then this is wrong. Jabber - the client, not the IM&P servers which are part of the CUCM cluster (if you're familiar with Lync consider CUCM+IM&P servers a Front End Pool) - do not use an Application User at all. When a user starts Jabber, assuming SAML SSO is off, they supply an email address. This is used to find the servers via DNS SRV records, or the Mobile and Remote Access Expressway (roughly analogous to a Lync Edge pool) to tunnel through the firewall. After the email address they are prompted for their End User username and password. This is then used to access several APIs on the server, namely the User Data Service to discover what the user has. This would include what the user has configured/available to them. After this is done the Jabber client does one of three things with respect to phone functionality:
    If the user has no phone devices provisioned for them - physical or software - it becomes an IM&P client only.
    If the user has a software phone phone provisioned, it registers as that using SIP. In this way Jabber is the actual phone. This is called a CSF device for Jabber Windows/OS X.
    If the user has a desk phone assigned to their End User account AND administrative policy is to default to desk phone control, it registers to CTI Manager on the CUCM server to control the user's physical phone.
    A user can toggle between option two and three, if appropriately provisioned, but cannot have both simultaneously. In other words, Jabber is either controlling a physical phone over CTI or is a phone itself using SIP. The difference is where the audio/video media is sent from/to.
    All of this happens using that human's End User credentials.
    Now, if you wanted to have a server control the user's phone - either a physical one or Jabber - you would use the TSP as an interface to CTI Manager on the CUCM server and receive real-time events (e.g. the user went off-hook, the phone is ringing with this caller ID, etc.) and issue commands to that phone (e.g. make a call to X). This is done using an Application User account because the server would need to do this for multiple users simultaneously. If you also use the Super Provider concept, the CUCM administrator doesn't have to take the extra step of associating every phone to your Application User manually. Instead, you can simply issue CTI subscriptions to see any/all device activity you want.
    This is all assuming you wanted to do the integration server-side to avoid having to update the Cisco TSP application on every user PC (which also limits your WPF application to machines capable of running the TSP) every time the CUCM administrator patches the servers. If you don't care about that, then you can do this all client-side on the user's PC, and have them supply their End User credentials.
    Of course, you could also reconsider the Jabber SDK and just embed the make/receive call functionality directly into your application instead.

  • Issues with Safari 3.0.1 for windows

    Issues with Safari 3.0.1 for windows (at work):
    Lenovo T60 with intel core duo T7200 @2.00Ghz plus additional monitor (Lenovo ThinkVision) in extended desktop mode running Windows XP Pro 2002, SP2
    1. Taskbar is configured to autohide: when Safari is the top (active) window, it remains on top. If the taskbar pops up, it does so behind the Safari window, because I cannot see it.
    2. If an open Safari window is dragged to the external (secondary) monitor, then maximized, it disappears to the side. It is not closed. I can still find it via Alt-tab or in the task bar and can, by right-clicking ‘Move’ from the taskbar use the arrow keys to move the window back into place. Clicking to reduce the window, then re-maximizing leads to the window disappearing to the side again.
    3. In general my impression is that this does not function at a ‘beta’ level, but more of an ‘alpha’ level. Still very buggy.

    This is a beta...thats why they give you the option to report probs via the bug icon. Since you are having these probs try and report them, I am not sure if apple has the time to scan these forums to try and find the big probs that people are having. So unless you report bugs, (and wait until the final realease) then they might never get noticed and or fixed.

    This sounds to me that your Parallels XP file system is corrupted and not the OSX file system.
    Have you checked the XP file system while running the Parallels XP yet ?
    However, it would be better to ask such question in the Parallels Forum http://forum.parallels.com/
