Software firewall on client computer preventing logging in to portal

Client has a CA software firewall on her PC, when trying to login after providing username and password, remains on the same page without logging in. Disabling the firewall lets her in. Is anyone aware of what is causing this and is there a way around it.

maybe you can specify in the firewall policy to grant access of the SSO port number.

Client computer showing a restart notice prior to the software updates deadline date

Does the SCCM 2012 client send notices to the client computer prior to the software update deadline date, but not actually restart the computer until the deadline has been reached?
I am asking because I see that there are restart notices in my System log when filtering Event IDs 1074, 6006, and 6005, but when I filter Event ID 12116 on the Application log, it only shows one restart on the day of the deadline being initiated by SCCM.
I am assuming the SCCM client will generate a computer restart notice after a software update deadline is set and the client systems receive the policies from the Site Server, but not actually restart until the deadline, but I am just speculating.
If someone can offer an explanation here, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you very much

On the day that I deployed my SUG, here is what the Event Viewer shows for the following Event IDs in the System Log:
System Log Events
Event ID 1074
The process C:\Windows\system32\winlogon.exe (Computer1) has initiated the restart of computer Computer1 on behalf of user MyDomain\User1 for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found
Reason Code: 0x500ff
Shutdown Type: restart
Comment:
Event ID 6005
The Event log service was started.
Event ID 6006
The Event log service was stopped.
On the actual deadline day, here is what the Event Viewer shows for my Application Log, but it does not show any previous restarts like the System Log shows:
Application Log Event
Event ID 12116
Configuration Manager restarted the computer to complete installation of software or software updates.

Software Update Scan Cycle not found on Client computer.

Hi,
In my organization in some of the client PC's (Windows 7), Software update scan cycle is not found.
When i checked the UpdateDeployment.log file on client computer it saying
"Software Updates client configuration policy has not been received."
"Software updates functionality will not be enabled until the configuration policy has been received. If this issue persists please check client/server policy communication."
"Software Updates feature is disabled"
Please help me to solve the issue. Let me know the solution if anyone faced the same problem.
Thanks in Advance

Log in to your account, and move all your files to your home folder. No other users should be able to access them there and they won't show up with a Spotlight search.
Make sure your kids' account(s) do not have admin privileges.

Cannot have multiple users logged in at once on a single client computer

I am running OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard Server on a Mac Pro, and have two iMacs (27.5") as clients in my workgroup.
Computer A : Server
Computer B, C : Client machines
The problem is that when user1 is logged onto the server network drive (/Network/Servers/ComputerA/Users/~user1/) from a given client (say ComputerB), it is not possible to login another user (user2) onto the server network drive from client Computer B.
It IS possible however for user2 to log in from another client machine (ComputerC) without any problem and access his home directory.
Similarly it IS possible for a local user to log onto ComputerB while a network user is logged onto the central file server.
If user1 is logged into ComputerB, and user 2 is logged onto ComputerC, if user1 ssh's over to Computer B, he can log in, but he cannot access his home directory, getting the following error:
Could not chdir to home directory /Network/Servers/nplab0/Users/chris_dimattina: Permission denied
-bash: /Network/Servers/nplab0/Users/chrisdimattina/.bashprofile: Permission denied
and gets sent to the root directory of ComputerB.
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks!
What can I do to fix it? Should I use NFS protocol instead?
I basically want to make my workgroup into a standard UNIX workgroup where lots of different people can be logged in and running jobs on the same machine.

Hello Bruarong,
It sounds like you are unable to print to your printer from Mac OS X Lion. I recommend the troublehsooting from the article named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

How to solve this. It happens even when firewall is disabled. Apple TV: "Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689" alert in Windows

How to fix this. Happens even when firewall is disabled. (Apple TV 1st generation)
Apple TV: "Check that any firewall software running on this computer has been set to allow communication on port 3689" alert in Windows

After a few hours the same issue started again. (Port 3689 error) I checked my router settings and it shows ATV asd connected to my netrwork. ATV also shows in iTunes devices. It asll works till I try to sync. Then the error pops up
I tired restoring ATV to factory settings. Even backed iTunes up to version 8 and every combonation therein. I started an older Gateway running Vista 64bit and it syncs fine with ATV although it's slow and I have to transfer movies from my Win 7 to tyhe Vista machiner.
I cannot find any reason for this issue. Can anybody solve this before it dribves me crazy? (Crazier)

Redirector prevents computer from logging onto network

I am using Desktop Manager v4.7. Ever since I upgraded from v4.6 to v4.7, the redirector tries to launch and connect to the network before my desktop computer is able to do so. To make matters worse, the computer wont log onto the network because the redirector is trying to log onto it.
Finally, the redirector crashes at which point the computer is able to log onto the network. However, by then, the redirector wont try to log onto the network again, and my emails are not forwarded to my blackberry.
Thus, is it possible to have the redirector wait until the computer has logged onto the network before it tries launch itself?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

OK, MnJim,
Then in that case, if your disabling the SSID, you'll need to type in the SSID manually each time since I don't believe that Airport on the Mac can find an SSID to automatically connect to, if the SSID is not being broadcast.
So it almost seems like you're between a rock and a hard place. Don't want to type the SSID in order to 'find' it? Then don't disable it.
Also:
With the SSID broadcast disabled, if there is another access point within range that is broadcasting, systems will automatically switch to the access point that's broadcasting its SSID. This happens even if you didn't list that broadcasting system as a preferred network and you've listed the access point that's not broadcasting as preferred.
and:
http://www.netstumbler.org/archive/index.php/t-11738.html
and:
http://forums.wi-fiplanet.com/archive/index.php/t-1293.html
It seems as if it's "to-may-to", "to-mah-to". A serious hacker will find a way to find your SSID, broadcasted or not. Disabling it simply makes your life more of a hassle.
...for what it's worth...
Anyone else find other factoids to support 'disabling', or a better way to keep the connection 'automatic' without an publicized SSID ?

Is Airport a substitute for software firewall?

I have a Windows PC behind my Airport network. Is my Airport's NAT (or the NAT of any router for that matter) a substitute for software firewall?
As I understand it, the only thing software firewalls do is block un-used ports, which Airport's NAT already does (since by default it doesn't forward any port except 80 and few other necessary ports to the IPs behind its NAT), and therefore there's no way for hackers to get to them. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
It'd also be nice to know what ports Airport permit traffics... and how it knows which IP to forward the traffic too (does it act kind of like a proxy?).
Thanks

Yi,
Below is an article that discusses hardware and software firewalls. I hope it helps. The original article can be found here.
Firewall Debate: Hardware vs. Software
By Ronald Pacchiano
November 4, 2003
I'm about to get my first broadband connection, and I know I need to get a firewall. However, I've been getting some conflicting advice as to what type of firewall I need. Some people tell me I should get a hardware firewall, while others tell me a software firewall is preferred. What's the difference, and more importantly, which is better?
Good question. The truth is that in a typical home office environment, one type of firewall isn't necessarily better than the other. They are some differences, though, and they can be used together to give you an even greater degree of protection.
Hardware firewalls are important because they provide a strong degree of protection from most forms of attack coming from the outside world. Additionally, in most cases, they can be effective with little or no configuration, and they can protect every machine on a local network.
A hardware firewall in a typical broadband router employs a technique called packet filtering, which examines the header of a packet to determine its source and destination addresses. This information is compared to a set of predefined and/or user-created rules that determine whether the packet is to be forwarded or dropped. A more advanced technique called Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), looks at additional characteristics such as a packet's actual origin (i.e. did it come from the Internet or from the local network) and whether incoming traffic is a response to existing outgoing connections, like a request for a Web page.
But most hardware residential firewalls have an Achilles' heel in that they typically treat any kind of traffic traveling from the local network out to the Internet as safe, which can sometimes be a problem.
Consider this scenario: What would happen if you received an e-mail message or visited a website that contained a concealed program? Let's say this program was designed to install itself on your machine and then surreptitiously communicate with someone via the Internet — a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack zombie or a keystroke logger, for example? And trust me, this is by no means an unlikely scenario.
To most broadband hardware firewalls, the traffic generated by such programs would appear legitimate since it originated inside your network and would most likely be let through. This malevolent traffic might be blocked if the hardware firewall was configured to block outgoing traffic on the specific Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) port(s) the program was using, but given that there are over 65,000 possible ports and there's no way to know which ports a program of this nature might use, the odds of the right ones being blocked are slim.
Moreover, blocking too many ports would almost certainly adversely affect your ability to use some programs (many games, for instance). Also, some broadband router firewalls don't even provide the ability to restrict outgoing traffic, only incoming traffic.
Advantages of Software Firewalls
Now consider what a software firewall might do in the aforementioned scenario. When you first set up a software firewall, you can specify which applications are allowed to communicate over the Internet from that PC. Programs that aren't explicitly allowed to do so are either blocked or else the user is prompted for confirmation before the traffic is allowed to pass. Therefore, it would likely intercept this kind of traffic before it left your computer.
Another potential scenario where a software firewall would be useful is in the case of an e-mail worm with its own e-mail sever, like the recent "SoBig" worm. Its built-in mail server could attempt to send mail on the valid Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) port (25), which would probably pass through the router because of its trusted origin.
On the other hand, a software firewall could be configured to only allow Microsoft Outlook to use port 25 (assuming Outlook is your e-mail client). Any attempt by another application to use the port would be dropped, or blocked pending user confirmation. For that matter, the application's attempt to use any port would be blocked if the firewall was configured that way.
By comparison, a hardware firewall that had the ability to filter outgoing traffic might allow you to block most kinds of traffic from a particular PC, but it wouldn't be able to flag you and alert you to repeated attempts to infiltrate your computer.
One obvious downside to software firewalls is that they can only protect the machine they're installed on, so if you have multiple computers (which many small offices do), you need to buy, install, and configure a software firewall separately on each machine. This can get expensive and can be difficult to manage if you have a lot of computers.
But the fact of the matter is that software firewalls generally offer the best measure of protection against certain types of situations like Trojan programs or e-mail worms. Speaking of which, a firewall isn't the only protection method available to you. Whether you end up using a software firewall or a hardware firewall, you should always supplement it with anti-virus software.
A good anti-virus package is just as important as a firewall, and I would seriously suggest that you invest in a good one (I'm partial to both Norton and McAfee myself). However, keeping your virus definitions updated is far more important than which program you use. I cannot stress the importance of this enough. Making sure your definitions are current is absolutely critical to maintaining your protection. Many Anti-virus programs today can be configured to automatically update themselves, so you have no excuse for not maintaining them.
The bottom line is that with any home-office broadband connection, a hardware firewall should be considered a bare minimum, and supplementing it with a software firewall on one or more computers (and don't forget anti-virus software) is almost always a good idea.

Software Update in Clients

Hi,
When a task sequence is running, i see that programs is hanging at "Waiting for software update to pause" in smsts.log. I have changed the paused cookies to 0. Reinstalled SCCM client. Still the same problem occurs. What needs to be done to make
the program to complete successfully.

Any update on this as I am struggling with this issue for the past few days ?
Our image was built last year so when I want to recreate it, it has to do 150 updates. We don't have WSUS updates into SCCM so I had to use a wsf script to get the updates from our WSUS server.
If I image the computer without doing the updates and do them manually by running the script here is what happens :
1st execution of the script : 137 updates installed and a reboot is required
I manually reboot
2nd execution of the script : 13 updates installed and a reboot is required
I manually reboot
3rd execution of the script : 4 updates installed
I manually reboot
4th execution of the script : no updates required.
If I only do 1 execution of the script in my TS : it works fine, it installs the 137 updates but then when the PC is done imaging, it still needs the 13+4 other updates which I don't really like.
At first, I tried adding this in my TS:
WSUS 1/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
WSUS 2/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
WSUS 3/3
System restart (triggered by the TS)
This stops at step #2, I see it do the 137 updates and then when it reboots, it goes into provisioning mode and doesn't continue. Looks like there is an issue with the reboot so...
I have tried removing the reboot as follows
WSUS 1/3
WSUS 2/3
WSUS 3/3
This installs the 137 updates in step #1 and downloads the 13 updates in step 2 and 3 but log file says a reboot is required to install them. The TS then continues but once it meets a System restart triggered by the TS, it doesn't resume the TS and goes
also in provisionning mode.
Any idea on why it goes into provisioning mode after installing the updates ? To me, it looks like there is a probably with the state that WSUS puts the computer in, like it is pending reboot but the System restart by the TS doesn't seem to work when trying
the reboot ?
Thanks!!!!

Residual swf file on client computer?

Once you closed the browser that ran an Flex, is the swf file
containing the client application left on the hard disk or the RAM
of the client computer?

It isn't a security issue unless you are trying to prevent a
3rd party other than the user/client from accessing the data. If
you do not want a client/user to have access to hack the code, then
it cannot be allowed to ever run on hardware a client/user
controls. This is Security 101. Same reason you can get cracks for
every game ever made, every major program ever released, etc. If
the client can run it in a debugger, they can do anything given
enough time/sophistication.
Put another way: Security by obscurity/obfuscation, is not
security at all.
If you want something to be secure (from the client), then it
can only ever run on your own hardware (ie web servers). It is
possible to have secure communications between client and browser
though, in the sense that a third party wouldn't be able to
interfere/read the commuications between the client and the server.
All you would be doing by trying to keep the swf in RAM, or
delete it is try and put a bandaid on a corpse. (Sorry, it's late
and my analogy sucks.) Anyone sophisticated enough to decompile and
understand a SWF file will not have any problems reading RAM or
whatever other measures you can think of.
If there was a foolproof way to do this, every commercial
close-sourced software company in the world would be using
it.

Updates not installed on client computer

Hi, I have become regular on this forum. I simply follow along what other people have done (books, videos) but it does not work for me. I added WSUS role to my SCCM server, then installed Software Update Point role, configured all necessary settings
and started Synchronize Software Updates process (security, critical and definition updates only for Windows 7). I checked log
wsyncmgr and I found line: sync: SMS synchronizing updates, processed 829 out of 829 items (100 %)
Next, I created Software Update Group with only no-expired, no-superseded updates as members and as final step I deployed this group to test collection with only one Windows 7 machine as a member. Updating process should
have started very soon (both Software available time and installation deadling have been set to
As soon as possible) but whole night have passed and I saw this morning that nothing happened on client machine. Since this client computer has been installed last week
automatic updates was turned off so I turned it on - I do not know whether it is necessary since in logs communication between client and SCCM has been successfully established even before I did this. I went to Control Panel - Windows
Update and saw Windows is up to date but in the list of installed updates there are no updates synchronized on SCCM (I was looking for updates based on KB). Also I can change settings for update process - it is not grayed-out as it used to be with "normal"
WSUS server.

I found what happened. I was right that only "old" updates were filtered out (I do not know why SCCM did not include newer updates too since I filtered out updates which were not superseded, not expired, for product Windows
7 and bulletin ID contained MS) - having been filtered out I put them into new software update group and deployed group to a collection. I run
machine policy retrieval & evaluation cycle, software updates deployment evaluation cycle and software updates scan cycle on clients but nothing happened.
I run filter on all software updates again (the same criteria as before) and there were much more updates meeting criteria - I downloaded them into existing package and later added them into existing software update group where these "old" updates
were. I run machine policy retrieval & evaluation cycle, software updates deployment evaluation cycle and software updates scan cycle on clients and update process started. Having finished updating, I restarted clients and in
Control Panel - Windows Update all installed updates were there and their KBs were correct.
If update settings in CP can be changed but it does not affect update process (it is controlled by SCCM client agent) I am fine with that. Also one thing I noticed also - while update process is in progress on client, user in Software Center could potentially
click on any update which were installed and required restart and click RESTART button in lower-right corner. I did not try this since it might have restarted machine thereby interrupting installation of other updates. This could be potentially big
problem - restart button would have not been there and available while update process had been in progress.

How can I display the front panel of the dinamically loaded VI on the cliente computer, the VI dinamically loaded contains files, I want to see the files that the server machine has, in the client machine

I can successfully view and control a VI remotly. However, the remote VI dinamically loads another VI, this VI loaded dinamically is a VI that allows open others VIs, I want to see the files that contains the server machine, in the client machine, but the front panel of the dinamic VI appears only on the server and not on the client, How can I display the fron panel with the files of the server machine of the dinamically loaded VI on the client computer?

I down loaded your files but could use some instructions on what needs run.
It seems that you are so close yet so far. You need to get the data on the server machine over to the client. I generally do this by doing a call by reference (on the client machine) of a VI that is served by the server. THe VI that executes on the server should pass the data you want to diplay via one of its output terminals. You can simply wire from this terminal (back on the client again) to an indicator of your choosing.
Now theorectically, I do not think that there is anything that prevents use from getting the control refnum of the actual indicator (on the server) of the indicator that has the data, and read its "Value" using a property node. I have never tried this idea but it seems t
hat all of the parts are there. You will need to know the name of the VI that holds the data as well as the indicator's name. You will also have to serve all VI's. This is not a good idea.

Issue with re-connecting a Client Computer to the Server Essentials R2 2012

I have an issue re-connecting a Client Computer to Server Essentials R2 2012. The Client Computer in question was connected to the Sever originally. I started getting Error Messages indicating that I was running out of storage room. I
had been wanting to re-configure this Server with additional Hard Drives for some time, but something else always came up first. Now, I was forced to address the problem. I shut down the Server and added additional Hard Drives and while I was at
it I replaced the original Hard Drive that the Server Operating System was on with a much smaller Hard Drive, and reinstalled Server Essentials on that Drive. Everything was working fine and the Server Back-up went fine to an external Hard Drive.
I was ready to re-install my Client Computers. I started with my primary Production Computer first. The Connector Software seemed to install fine, but as I moved through the Connection Wizard I received the following Error Message: "Cannot
connect this computer to the network. This computer is already connected to another Windows Server Network. Before connecting this computer to the Windows Server Essentials network, you must remove this computer from the current network.
To resolve this issue, contact the person responsible for your network". I am the Administrator. I removed the Connector Software following the instructions in the "Troubleshooting connecting computers to the Server", but I continue
to get the Error Message whenever I attempt to re-connect the Client Computer. I have not attempted to connect any of the other three Client Computers yet as I need to resolve this issue first on my primary production machine. Where am I going
wrong? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi PARADOX-RED,
Based on the error messages that you provided, please remove the connector software from Control Panel completely. Then, in the problematic computer, please locate
to: Control Panel-> System-> select Change settings. And select the Computer Name tab in the System Properties dialog box, click
change button. Then in the Computer Name/Domain Changes dialog box, please take the computer out of the domain as a workgroup, and rejoin in new domain.
Please check if this issue can be solved. If it still exists, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Install software on multiple client computers in active directory domain win 2008 R2
