SMTP relay authentication issue with DynDNS MailHop Outbound

Hi,
I'm trying to use the SMTP relay functionality of my OS X Server but I get following log message:
Apr 4 21:40:21 mydomain postfix/smtp[7629]: 4EE3686F529: to=<xxxx@xxxxx>, relay=outbound.mailhop.org[204.13.248.71]:465, delay=140731, delays=140130/0.06/600/0, dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (conversation with outbound.mailhop.org[204.13.248.71] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting)
I configured the relay settings in Server-Admin for host: outbound.mailhop.org:465 and added my dyndns username and password.
I would appreciate if someone could help me to figure out what I'm missing.
Thanks

If you're getting a 550 error then it indicates an issue with the SMTP server you're using / how you're connecting to it. Either the mail server you've got configured for SMTP isn't setup to handle email for you, or in addition to setting the server address
in the SMTP settings, you also need to configure it to configure authentication on the email accounts. In the account settings you need to select More settings (I think, I don't have an Outlook 2007 copy to check on), then you'll see an Outgoing
Server tab, within which you can configure the required authentication. It will either be the same as the POP3 login, in which case you can select "Use same settings as my incoming mail server", or if they're different you can enter the specific details that
are required to send.

ACS 5.2 Authentication Issue with Local & Global ADs

Hi I am facing authentication issue with ACS 5.2. Below is AAA flow (EAP-TLS),
- Wireless Users >> Cisco WLC >> ADs <-- everything OK
- Wireless Users >> Cisco WLC >> ACS 5.2 >> ADs <-- problem
Last time I tested with ACS, it worked but didn't do migration as there'll be changes from ADs.
Now my customer wants ACS migration by creating new Group in AD, I also update ACS config.
For the user from the old group, authentication is ok.
For the user from the new group, authentication fails. With subject not found error, showing the user is from the old group.
Seems like ACS is querying from old records (own cache or database). Already restared the ACS but still the same error.
Can anyone advice to troubleshoot the issue?
Note: My customer can only access their local ADs (trusted by Global ADs). Local ADs & ACS are in the same network, ACS should go to local AD first.
How can we check or make sure it?
Thanks ahead,
Ye

Hello,
There is an enhacement request open already:
http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCte92062
ACS should be able to query only desired DCs
Symptom:
Currently on 5.0 and 5.1, the ACS queries the DNS with the domain, in order to get a list of all the DCs in the domain and then tries to communicate with all of them.If the connection to even one DC fails, then the ACS connection to the domain is declared as failed.A lot of customers are asking for a change on this behavior.
It should be possible to define which DCs to contact and/or make ACS to interpret DNS Resource Records Registered by the Active Directory Domain Controller to facilitate the location of domain controllers. Active Directory uses service locator, or SRV, records. An SRV record is a new type of DNS record described in RFC 2782, and is used to identify services located on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network.
Conditions:
Domain with multiple DCs were some are not accessible from the ACS due to security/geographic constraints.
Workaround:
Make sure ALL DCs are UP and reachable from the ACS.
At the moment, we cannot determine which Domain Controller on the AD the ACS will contact. The enhacement request will include a feature on which we can specify the appropriate the Domain Controllers the ACS should contact on a AD Domain.
Hope this clarifies it.
Regards.

Authentication issue with Xcelsius/Portal integration

I am facing an issue with the way we have integrated our Xcelsius dashboard with our corporate portal. I know this probably is more of a SDK question than Administration, but I figured I will ask it here anyway since Tim and some others are diverse enough in their knowledge base. This might be LONG post but please advise if anyone has any good pointers.
We have an Xcelsius dashboard that needs to be served up via our corporate intranet (based on MS Sharepoint 2007). Now we are NOT using the MS Sharepoint Portal Integration Kit, but just doing a basic integration of the SWF call within a web part on Sharepoint. All this means is that within a portlet (web-part) on Sharepoint, I am making a HTTP call to the openDocument URL to invoke the SWF file. So the SWF is actually served up from our Tomcat App Server, and displayed onto this frame within the portal. That is the basic idea.
To achieve this, what I did was write some custom code using the Java SDK to modify the openDocument a little bit. By doing so, I was able to insert some behind-the-scenes-login code wherein no matter who the portal user (Win AD-based) is, he is logged in to BOE as a generic "dashboard-user" and the dashboard is served up. This worked fine for the first dashboard where all we had was SWF and some WebI linking using openDocument (no full-InfoView access).
But in this second dashboard now, what we also have is a hyperlink for users to get to InfoView to do Ad-hoc reporting. What this does is open a child browser window from within the portal (dashboard) --- and it remembers the BOE session for the generic user id "dashboard-user" and logs the end-user in to InfoView using that. But what I actually want is that the end-users, on this new window, should only be prompted at the traditional InfoView logon screen where they can manually enter their Windows AD password and get in. Thus, I would like to keep the dashboard SWF page session separate from the InfoView ad-hoc session, which I cannot seem to do because of the browser relationship and session maintenance.
I am trying to find a way where I can simulate a single sign-on for dashboard viewers on the portal, but at the same time let them jump off to InfoView as themselves.
Any thoughts on how I can do this?
Notes:
We DO NOT have Single Sign-On enabled for InfoView
We are using Windows AD authentication (manual, no SSO)
We are on Tomcat

Sarang Deshpande wrote:
1) If the InfoView app on Tomcat (desktoplaunch) is configured with Vintela, openDocument calls from the portal with automatically work using behind the scenes SSO, correct?
in XIR2 everything that falls under infoview should SSO when infoview is setup for SSO (not the case in XI 3.x)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
2) What is the best practice when it comes to the service accounts needed? I have implemented Windows AD manual auth already so I have a service account that use for that. Should I be using the same on and making vintela/SSO-specific changes to it...or should I have a separate vintela service account and deal with two different ones..each for a diff purpose?
There is no best practice per se but the less service account the lower your chances to duplicate an SPN, functionally everything seems to work just as well with multiple as it does with 1 (of course with 1 there is less management work) If you click the SSO link in my forum sticky post I have a section explaining this with some suggested methods of deploying a service account(s)
Sarang Deshpande wrote:
3) Other than some minor browser configurations that might be required, is there anything else that I should communicate to the team about what might be required to be "pushed" to users' PCs?
Using the default config nothing should be required on the client machine (unless SSO has been disabled in the browser or you intend to use a url that contains a period ..... (i.e. FQDN or IP) with hostname URL (the default) it should just work.
To note if you have XP SP2 or older there is a microsoft spnego bug you may need to apply a fix if you aren't patched to SP3 (about 5% of our customers run into this).

UnityConnection 7X SMTP relay authentication?

A site with UC 7 is looking to start using message notification via SMTP (to smartphones, misc. email accounts, etc.).
The on-site smart host / email relay server requires user authentication to accept and deliver mail on behalf of UnityConnection. It cannot function as an open relay even on the private network, nor accept by IP.
Is there a way to configure an authenticating / authorizing user on UC to use when sending SMTP messages to the relay server from UC?

That's correct, there's no way to implement authentication on the UC side for an SMTP Smart Host.

Custom Authentication Issue with Policy Agent

Hi,
I have a custom authentication module which is hosted on the BEA application server and I am trying to access through the policy agent on apache.
I have set the following property in AMAgent.properties file
com.sun.am.policy.am.loginURL= http://host:port/amserver/UI/Login
So When the user requests a protected resource, the policy agent forwards the user to Identity Server with the module as CustomLoginModule. However, after this, authentication is succeed, user sesion is being created and I get the following error message in the agent log file.

WRT54GX2 SRX200 thermal issue with internal Ethernet switch engine? Issue with DynDNS?

The WRT54GX2 SRX200 had been working for 2 years. Last week it started to drop LAN/WLAN i.e. all Ethernet connection are up for about 20 seconds, then drop, comes back within 10 seconds then drop again after 20 seconds, etc. Shutting off the WRT54GX2 for a while will give 5 minutes of service, but the cycle will start again. Power supply is operating OK. I suspect a thermal problem on the Ethernet switch engine: it has been hot in San Jose and the wiring shelf reached 85*F. The other issue is that DynDNS flagged the WRT54GX2 SRX200 because it updates IP too often e.g. update on a timer ?
I replaced the SRX200 with an older WRT54G V5 that works well in the same spot, and is 'verified' by DynDNS.

Hi ashalon,
login processing normally calls the authentication scheme's login handler (aka authentication function). In many cases, this is done in a submit process on an Apex login page, that calls
apex_authentication.login (
    p_username => :P101_USERNAME,
    p_password => :P101_PASSWORD );This procedure (and it's variants, like wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login) cause the Apex engine to
1. run the authentication scheme's pre-authentication procedure
2. pass username and password to the authentication scheme's authentication function, which should return true or false, depending on whether the credentials are valid
3. if true: run the post-authentication procedure
4. if true: save the username in session state
5. if true: prepare a redirect URL to the deep link (i.e. the page that triggered login)
6. if false: prepare a redirect URL to the login page with a notification_msg that contains the error
7. log success/failure of the login attempt
8. generate a new session cookie
9. perform the redirect
The exact order and technical details of these steps may vary from Apex version to version.
The authenentication function (2.) can check against the workspace users table (Apex authentication), the database, an LDAP repository or you can build your own.
Some authentication schemes rely on external mechanisms to check the credentials and a defined way for these to pass the username back to the authentication scheme. SSO does this in a very special way, the header-based authentication scheme simply relies on a HTTP header variable to transport the username. These authentication schemes never run 1. and 2. from above, but simply accept the username and run 3. - 9. This behaviour is exposed with the post_login procedure.
Your authentication scheme is interesting. It piggybacks on the Apex authentication scheme, but de facto uses nothing of it. The submit process on the login page checks LDAP credentials and then runs post_login, if the check was successful. You could surely rewrite this as a custom authentication, although the authentication function had to rely on v('P101_DOMAIN') in addition to the username and password that get passed to it by default. Whether the rewrite makes sense is up to you, of course. If you are comfortable with this authentication, stick to it. But it probably would be much easier to understand for others and also easier to reuse in other apps if the LDAP credentials checking was in the authentication scheme.

Christian

WCS Radius Authentication issue with 2008 R2 NPS

OK, so I have my MPS working. I am authenticating all sorts of Cisco devices and I can even authenticate the admin login from the WCS server. UNLESS I add more than 27 of the custom settings in the Cisco-AV-Pair that the WCS uses to define the logged in user rights. Anything after the 27th setting the login times out and the WCS denies access. I go back to 27 and it logs in fine. There are 73 settings for the default admin user.
Anyone have any ideas why this is happening or better yet, how to get around it?
I have been searching through the MS technet to see if there is a limitation built in to the NPS, but I have yet to find anything.
Thanks,
Rod

I have not gotten any other feedback and I have not been ablet to identify anything on technet about it. It will happen with any role that requires more than 27 of the Cisco-AV-Pair settings. It is working fine for stuff like the Lobby administrator logins, that require less than 5 access rules to be passed from the NPS, but that just goes to show that it is working as long as I do ot hit the 27 "line-item" limit.

Authentication Issue with BPM work space

Hi
I have created a sample BPM process using JDeveloper and deployed as well
but when i tried to login to verify created process in workspace it shows the
"Invalid ID or password. Please try again" , i tried using weblogic user id and password (weblogic/Welcome1)
and also tried using existing users in weblogic (ex:cooper/welcome1) but no luck . so could you please let me know what may be issue
and how to resolve this issue, it will great help if you can help
Regards
Noor

Hi Noor
By any chance for this SOA/BPM domain, have you configured any other External Authenticator also like LDAP, AD etc. If so, is that the first in the list. And if yes, then your error is valid. You need to do some extra settings. I can give more details, once you confirm above points.
BUT if you just created a BPM domain and created those test users like jcooper/welcome1 etc, then you should not get these errors. I hope you used the demo community seed war file, deploy and run that servlet. And also, make sure that you are using correct username/passwords. So first try weblogic user on your console, em etc. Then try bpm/workspace. You should be able to login, even though you may not see links on left side to create new taks,
Thanks
Hi Ravi Jegga,
Thanks for your reply, i have not configured to any external authenticator and i have not created any test users while creating domains i hope this test users will created automatically , i am able to login both weblogic console and em as well when i try login for work space it shows the Invalid user name or password
I am trying very basic sample process model given by Oracle (http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/obpm/11g/r1/firstProcess/firstprocess_obpm11g.htm)
so could you please let me know if i miss some thing

OS X Server + Active Directory Authentication Issue with Wikis

Hello,
I recently purchased an Apple XServe with Snow Leopard installed. The purpose of this server is to enable students and teachers to create Wikis and Blogs.
The majority of my environment is MS, with Active Directory as our LDAP provider.
I have joined the server to my domain and can add domain accounts to the Wiki creation access list without issue, but whenever I try to login to the server's web interface with one of those accounts the login screen shakes and prompts for another set of credinitals.
What am I doing wrong? Open Directory seems to be setup properly and has been kerberitized as it requested when I joined the box to the domain.
Thank you all for your help,
David

Authentication issues

We've had authentication issues with Infinity since the install just over a week ago (BT Business package)
The router will drop the connection and then we have a problem reconnecting (won't). Out of sheer frustration I've discovered a workaround that sometimes works that is to change the user name to the BT test account, connect, and then change the router user name setting back to our own. The BT test account always works, so despite a BT engineer being sent to trace the problem onsite yesterday the issue remains. We've also been sent a new router, and the BT engineer arrived with yet another new one yesterday
The problem seems to be purely authentication. The Technical Helpdesk have changed our password (twice) but we still get the problem. Yesterday I was told that some other users in our area have also had an authentication issue and that over the weekend 'patches' were going to be applied at our local exchange.
When the service works we get quite good speeds (37 down, 8 up) but we're frustrated with the lack of knowledge from the help-desk and have doubts that the 'patches' will resolve the issue
Such is the problem that BT will downgrade us back to ADSL2 (which was rock solid in comparison) next week if we're still unhappy
I did ask if our user name could be changed but told no. I'm curious to know as to what the switch to fibre could cause authentication problems?

Safari 5.1 HTML5 HTTP basic access authentication issue video does not load

I have a .m4v video referenced in a page with the HTML5 video tag in a folder which is in a password protected folder housed on iPage.
Safari 5.0.5 plays the video fine. Safari 5.1 fails to load/play the video in the protected folder. If I move the video to a not protected folder, Safari 5.1 plays it fine.
This is on iPage. Back on MobileMe all is fine with 5.1.
I think this is a HTTP basic access authentication issue with 5.1.
Anyone have similar issue? Work around?

Yes, I can also confirm this behaviour. This is in Safari 5.1.1, but I also see the exact same thing in WebKit nightlies.

10.3.9 - Mobile Users Authenticating for SMTP Relay.

I hope I get my thoughts together and this question comes out right.
I have a small shop, where most of my users are in-house. They're using Entourage clients, and my couple of PC folks are using Outlook 2003. From in-house, everyone works just fine. Relay filters are setup to allow people inside the network to send fine. I have 127.0.0.1/32 and 192.168.1.1/32 in the Mail/Settings/Filters/SMTP Relay settings.
However, I have a couple of mobile users, the Director being one of them, who want/need to send email when outside of the office, or from a mobile device, like their Treo.
What I'm running into is that my mobile users are having authentication issues when trying to send email while outside the office. Even when they indicate they need to authenticate SMTP from their client, I get different issues with different users.
The Director's Treo, using Versamail, recieves email normally via IMAP. However, when sending, even though she's set to ESMTP Authentication, I get a 502 error. Without ESMTP Authentication turned on, I get a relay error.
Mail/Settings/Advanced has LOGIN and Plain checked for SMTP Authentication, and IMAP has LOGIN, Plain and Clear checked, while POP has APOP and Clear slected.
I'm at a loss for how to proceed with correcting this issue to allow mobile users to authenticate reliably from where ever they are. Can someone provide me some straightforward guidence on how this should be correctly configured?
Thanks.

Same SMTP Relay problem but new reasons. Works with most but not with few

I am writing a mail server. My applications sends mail directly to the SMTP server of recipient using MX Record. I find out the MX Record of the recipients and then using Java Mail send mail to that MX Record.This application is working fine and it has worked for thousand or so SMTP Server successfully.
There are couple of servers (SMTP of recipients) those reject the mail saying SMTP Relaying Prohibited by the Administrator and further says Invalid Mail Address Destination. I am wondering that the recipients belong to that same domain (MX record). I am able to mail them from yahoo or hotmail. I am not trying to use that SMTP for relaying, infact that mail account is registered in that particular SMTP Server.If that server is using SMTP Authentication, how come yahoo or hotmail authenticate for sending mail to their user.
I am sending all genunine parameters like senders mail address etc. I have tried setting various. Can anyone help me where I am missing?

My applications sends mail directly to the SMTPserver of recipient
using MX RecordYou don't send mail to the SMTP server you send it to
the pop3 server, anyway...
Nopes, you do send mail to the POP3 server. POP (Post Office Protocol) is used for fetching mails. Se RFC 1939 http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1939.html for more detailed information. Usually the mail agent contacts the local SMTP server and it queues it for delivery to other SMTP server that it can find via the MX record, trying the one with the highest priority first which incendently is the one with the lowest number.
If that server is using SMTP Authentication, howcome yahoo or
hotmail authenticate for sending mail to theiruser.
Hotmails' SMTP server will let you send to anybody,
most other private SMTP servers generally will
restrict the domains you can send to.
I'm a little confused as to what your problem is you
are connection to SMTP servers to send individuals
emails? why not just use on SMTP server to send to all
He is making a SMTP server.
Back to the original question:
Since you are checking the MX record for the address it should not be considered to be a relay of mail. The only reason this should happen is if the RCPT is set to something wierd like
<@HOSTA.ARPA,@HOSTB.ARPA:[email protected]>See RFC 0821 for more information. I am not sure if RFC 0821 is obsoleted, but this should still apply.
