Trying to understand Root CA and Basic EFS certificates
We recently migrated our Root CA from a Win2k3 to Win2k8R2. The migration seems successfully, but we are still attempting to test it out. My colleagues and I have very little knowledge of the Root CA and certificate use on the network in general.
One of the basic tests we are trying is to make sure the new Root CA is issuing certs properly. As part of this, we examined the "Issued Certificates" folder of the Certificate Authority. Many of the certs listed there are issued
to recognizable employees as the "Requester Name" and the certificate template is "Basic EFS (EFS)". We originally assumed this was the certificate issue by our wireless when connecting. However, our attempts to replicate and
generate new certs has not proven that to be true.
We have seen new certs requested and issue since the migration was complete, all from standard employees and using the "Basic EFS (EFS)" template. However, we cannot determine what service they are using to request and be issues the cert.
Through research and testing, I have seen that local file encryption would use and request a cert, but that is not a common service used in our company and would not account for all of the certificate requests.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what standard services we could be running where almost every employees has been issued and a (Basic EFS) cert? Wirelss, VPN, ? None of our testing, outside of testing the local file encryption,
has given us any results.
Hard to say for sure what caused it initially. There are some 3rd party USB protection software suites that have been known to cause superfluous enrollments. Here is a trick to see what caused the enrollment to occur. Find one your suspect EFS certs in the
CA database and note the request ID.
After executing this command:
certutil -view -Restrict RequestId=nnnn > rownnnn.txt
You can use the following to dump the request:
certutil rownnnn.txt > rownnnnRequest.txt
Then look for the following attribute in rownnnnRequest.txt:
Attribute[1]: 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.21.20 (Client Information)
Value[1][0], Length = 4d
Unknown Attribute type

Trying to understand context indexes and contains-help
Hi
i am using

plus
oracle text application developer's guide
plus
oracle text reference
but these have not listed that error (i have even googled this in vain)
background::we were actually using catsearch but because of its downsides i want to implement this
Is Achieving functionality of many preferences using one context index a good place to start when one does not know about
context and contains??
please post any other useful link for contains and context index that even explains
1) fuzzy
2) stem
3) synonym
4) near
5) soundex
6)ndata
7)lexer
thanks in advanceNdata is new to Oracle 11g. Your other posts indicate that you are using Oracle 10g, so you don't have ndata, so you get an error when you try to use it. If you want to use the 11g features that enable context indexes with contains to do all of the things that ctxcat indexes with catsearch do, then you need to upgrade to 11g.
The online documentation is searchable. Most things regarding Oracle Text are contained in either the Oracle Text Reference or the Oracle Text Application Developer's guide.
I suggest that you start with something very simple, then build from there.
The following is similar to your other post that used catsearch:

Trying to understand "User/Role/Profile Synchronization" and Batch Analysis
Hello,
Im trying to understand what exactly and from which tables these jobs are copying to which tables in CC. I have a understanding that these jobs are moving also deleted roles from backend. This is causing unnecessary delay to long lasting job.
I would appreasite if some one could explain the logic behind these jobs. What the fullsync and incremental is reading ? What kind of changes are causing a role/user/profile to be included to the full and incremental jobs?
How the incremental analysis logic is built ?
br JanneJanne,
In my current implementation we are going for an offline risk analysis due to the heteregoneus system landscape of our client (several SAP and non SAP systems and several SAP systems under 4.6C). Eventhough within our approach we don't perfrom the backend synchronization (we use CC data extractor to pull data from backend into CC) hope the following info could hel you:
The tables such jobs you mention access to, are all the SAP backend system tables related with users, roles, profiles, action and permissions. If you check the data mapping appendix of the "user and configuration guide for 5.2" you will see all the data that CC retrieves. For instance, in order to extract user info (UserID, FName, LName, Email, Phone, Email, Department) tables USR21, USR02, ADRP, ADR6 and ADCP must be accessed.
In terms of CC tables:
VIRSA_CC_SYSUSR >> UserIDs and Systems ID relationship
VIRSA_CC_GENOBJ >> User, Role and Profile master data
VIRSA_CC_GENACT >> User-action, role-action and profile-action data
VIRSA_CC_GENPRM >> User-permission, role-permission and profile-permission
VIRSA_CC_SAPOBJ >> Action-permission
VIRSA_CC_OBJTEXT >> Objects descripcions (ACT, PRM, FLD, VAL, ORG)
Hope this helps.

Trying to understand Android OS updates delays
This is not another hate mail, it´s more about trying to understand the facts and motives regarding the OS updates (or lack of).
Hopefully this material will arrive at someone from Sony with enough power to do something about it.
Ever since I can remember, Sony has been THE brand for electronics. I can´t remember a TV or VCR in my house that it wasn´t Sony, and they lasted for LOTS of years.
When a couple years ago I finally had the money (and the need) for a Smartphone, i chose the X10 Mini, which is a great little phone from a great brand, but it´s stuck at Android 2.1... which makes it a crippled android nowadays...
It really bothered me the lack of OS updates, so I chose to buy a Galaxy Nexus, but it´s really expensive in my country. So my second option was a Galaxy Ace 2, but they haven´t arrived to my country yet, so I went with my third option: Xperia Sola, knowing beforehand that it´s a great phone, a great brand, but I might get slow OS updates.
I bought it about 10 days ago when I saw they were starting to roll out the updates.
10 days later I still don´t have my update. And not only that, but I don´t see much light at the end of the tunnel...
I found a thread with the SI numbers that were updated, and there were a bunch on Oct 1, another bunch on Oct 4, and one code on Oct 8, and no other update since...
I also read that those who did get the update, were having bugs with the OS, and also found threads from other Xperia models, whose updates began rolling 3 months ago, and there is still people who hasn´t gotten the update...
As a customer, and a owner/CEO of a small company, I have a really hard time understanding how a HUGE company like Sony can be making such mistakes...
I have been thinking objective reasons, and I can only think of one. I know it´s a wild guess, but I´m starting to think that our salvation might be the very thing that means our condemnation: CYANOGENMOD!!!
Think about it: Why would Sony spend more money hiring twice as much programmers, when they can make only one update per phone, and sit down and see how CM releases begin to appear, for all tastes and needs. And... IT´s FREE!!!
Also, if there is a software related problem (way more likely than a hardware problem), then the CM developers take the fall, instead of Sony. And I´m beginning to see custom OS installers that are more user friendly, so it might be something that they take in accout when neglecting OS updates.
If that´s the line Sony is following, it´s a very risky move and it won´t work. Sony Mobile will crash and burn, but it´s still a better business plan that "let´s get lazy and make ULTRA slow updates so we don´t spend a lot of money programming".
If you can´t afford more programmers, stop including so much bells and whistles and make your OS near vanilla. Include a couple of Xperia menus, a custom theme and voila!
The main reason I wanted the Galaxy Nexus is Vanilla OS, which means inmediate OS updates. Sony on the other hand, takes a year or two to release it after its launch. If they release it at all...
Another though... why not stop making that many different phones! Really! There are like 5 Xperia models i can´t tell one from the other... even with specs side by side!
You are trying to make too many phones and you are failing with all of them! (Software and software updates are also part of the phone, one of the most importants...)
I know hiring programmers is expensive, but you are sacrificing one of the most expensive values for a company EVER: Customer credibility! Which as you know better than me, takes years to create.
If Apple had problems with carriers and code aprooving and stuff, they might get away with it, becouse they alone have all the devices. If iOS 6 is delayed a few months, it´s delayed for everyone, and besides Apple fanboys rarely complain about Mac products, but Android is a more independent and educated market.
I´m not saying that Apple users are ignorant, not at all, but I´m pretty sure most iPhone owners don´t even know what processor or how much RAM their phone has. They just "swallow" the Apple Way of Life. (it´s a good phone becouse Apple says so).
The Android user on the other side, because of the fragmentation of the market, has many brands and models to choose from. An Android user about to buy a new phone will most likely go online looking for different models, specs, reviews in webs and forums...etc.
You can´t say "I don´t know how HTC and other companies get their updates so soon, but we take a lot more becouse Google and the Operators must aproove the code.", because there are many other brands that have exactly the same difficulties or more, since they are smaller, and we can SEE online that they are indeed delivering solid and relativly fast updates.
Did we miss something? Does HTC use Witchcraft to get their code aprooved?
My underlying point is this: You are getting lazy... VERY lazy with software programming for your phones, and WE KNOW IT!
It´s not the "difficulties" you claim, becouse every brand has those difficulties.
This isn´t 1999 you know. We are in the information age. If you lie to us and tell us that your phones have the latest OS, I can go online and see that you don´t (Hello!!!). If I see that the company lies to it´s customers, I will stop buying their products. If I´m so dissapointed with how Sony handles OS updates and their customers queries about it, then I want for the first time ever to sell my Cell Phone becouse I´m not happy with it, or the brand behind it.
We also live in the "Here and now" age. You can´t expect your customers to read about new Android releases on news and blogs, and wait YEARS with arms crossed waiting for their update... The world doesn´t work like that. Not anymore at least...
It´s not a matter of how many recources you have, it´s about how you use and balance them. GIVE MORE IMPORTANCE TO SOFTWARE UPDATES! IT´S WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAT YOU THINK! LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!
You guys are Sony are smart and design great products, but you are not GOD! You are not our wife, no one has sworn alliagence to you.
If you stop giving us good products and start lying to us, we hate you and stop giving you our money. Simple as that.
My sola is beatiful, I love the design, the screen, the hardware... but it hasn´t been updated yet to 4.0, not to mention 4.1, which REALLY is the latest version... so stop advertising that your phones have the latest Android OS, unless you want angry customers switching to other companies, which you are getting.
I also read some stories that Androind 4.0 was announced for the Xperia PLAY, and then it was called off... Do you have any idea how pissed I would be and ripped off I would be if I bought my phone based in that information and then you say it won´t be available?
Well, actually right now my possition is worse, since you SAY you will update my phone, but you don´t say when, and I read online about people still not getting their updates months after the rollout started, so I´m in the limbo right now...
As a company, one of the worse things you can do is calling your customers stupid, and when I see the answers you give in this forum, then I feel insulted. I feel like they are talking to an idiot or ignorant person with the so called "diplomatic" answers, which are basicly empty excuses for not doing your job right.
You gave us the frikking CDs, DVDs and Blu-Rays!!! Don´t tell us you can´t tweak an already built OS in a year!
I really hope you change their OS update policies really soon, before you lose the already small cellphone market share you have, or at least change your P.R. and C.M. policies towards a more open one.
We all are humans and make mistakes, but we customers really appreciate honesty and truth.
Have an open conversation with your customers! Don´t lie about your shortcomings! Accept then and ask the community to help you solve them, ask them what they biggest problems are, what features are most important to them, how often do they expect updates... LISTEN TO THEM!!
"Succes is a meneace. It tricks smart people into thinking they can´t lose."
Ps: Nothing personal with the mods from this forum, I´m not killing the messenger, I know that you can ONLY give the info you are allowed to give, and even if you wanted, you probably don´t know the answers yourself, since you work in the Communications department, not Developement or anything technical, and if you can't give any given info, then they probably won´t give it to you either... My message is to the company as a whole. I just hope you will be a good messenger and give this to whoever needs to read it.My bad, it´s closer to 40 the number of phones released hehe
I know it´s all about money, and I know Sony is obligated to neglect users who haven´t given them money after an x ammount of time. However, it´s not a matter of making the phones obsolete earlier, so the users want to buy a new phone faster and therefore getting more money.
A person will buy a new phone when he/she has the money to do so and wants to do so.
It´s not a matter of WHEN. It´s a matter of WHAT.
The question is not "When will that user buy a new phone?", but rather "When that user buys a new phone, whenever that is, what phone will it be?"
I have a love/hate relationship with Apple. I would never use a iPhone. I would love having any Mac, if someone gives it to me, but I would never spend my harn earned dollars on such an overpriced piece of hardware over general principals.
However, i do recognice that Steve Jobs was a business genius. Weather you like or love his ideas and methods, he turned a garage project into the biggest company in the world, with a market value higher than Exxon with 1/3 of it´s assets.
Apple is a money making machine, and that is where the "hate" part of my relationship comes from.
However, it surprised me a lot to see that they released iOS 6 for the iPhone 3GS, released in 2008!
That get´s you thinking, that inside all that "SELL NOW" culture Apple is, they also support their older devices that people bought years ago but can't buy a new phone now. However, when they can do it, it will surely be another iPhone. Because they FEEL that the company listens and cares for them.
Also if you jump from iOS 6 on the 3 GS to a brand new iPhone 5, the transition will be virtually non-existant, except for Siri and a couple of features.
However jumping from Android 1.5 or 2.1 to Jelly Bean, might not be so easy on some users, making them more likely to give iPhone a shot.
Since they have to adapt to another phone anyway, they might as well try the apple...
And for old users, it gives people a sense of continuity and care about the user. Otherwise we feel like being kicked out of a restaurant right after we payed the bill. -
Newbie trying to understand MVC
Hi all,
I am trying to understand MVC here and I have this question...
I fetch some xml data from a HTTPservice but I want them to be available to all my views. Is it possible to save them in a model?So lets say I have this result from my service
<products>
<product>
<sizes>
<size>24</size>
<size>25</size>
<size>26</size>
</sizes>
<colors>
<color>blue</color>
<color>red</color>
</colors>
</product>
<product>
<sizes>
<size>24</size>
<size>25</size>
<size>26</size>
</sizes>
<colors>
<color>blue</color>
<color>red</color>
</colors>
</product>
</products>
In this case I 'd parse this xml and I'd populate what model? What variables should my model have? public var sizes:Array; and public var colors:Array; ? -
Trying to understand and learn how to use btrfs
I have been the past days trying to get my head around how btrfs works
I have been trying tools like mkinitcpio-btrfs (very poorly documented) and now, if i list the subvolumes i have in certain volume (/) i see i have 4 subvolumes that have been created while playing around.
If i try to delete them with "sudo btrfs subvolume delete __active", for example, I get a "ERROR: Error accessing '__active'
What am I doing wrong?
Also, I cannot get the whole idea about the difference between snapshots and subvolumes, i mean, a snapshot should be a directory that saves the changes made on the fs, s, if you want to roll back those changes, you just have to make btrfs "forget" the changes stored in that directory and move along, but I cannot take the idea of the subvolume thing.....
As btrfs is quite experimental and the wikis are not noob-proof still, I'd appreciate if someone gave me a hand trying to understand these concept...
For the moment, I'm just using it on a test computer and on a personal laptop with no fear of data loss,.
Any help is welcome
Thanks!
Last edited by jasonwryan (2013-07-19 23:13:27)I honestly think it is probably a better idea to not use mkinitpcio-btrfs. As mentioned above, it is poorly documented, and for me it has never worked right (if at all). It is an unofficial AUR package, and unfortunately our wiki still seems to give the false impression that using this package is the way to user btrfs with Arch.
The way I have my system set up is that in subvolid=0 (the root of the btrfs filesystem) I have a rootfs subvolume and a home subvolume (there are others, but these are what primarily make up my system). So in my fstab, I basically have two nearly identical lines, but one has no subvol specified and is mounted at /, and the other has 'subvol=home' mounted at /home.
So in order to make it so that I can change the root filesystem as I please, instead of having the / fstab entry specify the subvolume, I put it in the kernel command line. That is, I have 'rootflags=subvol=rootfs' in the kernel command line. So if I want to change it, I simply change the path to one of the snapshots.
Just remember that if you are one who likes a custom kernel, it is likely that you will have to have an initamfs no matter what you compile into your kernel. For one thing, the kernel has no mechanism for scanning for multiple device btrfs filesystems. But also, I have read that the kernel itself cannot handle the rootflags kernel command line argument.
Oracle Linux does something interesting with their default setup. They are not a rolling release, so this probably wouldn't work so well in Arch Linux, but they actually install the root filesystem (I think it is actually done to subvolid=0) and then after installation of the packages, a snapshot of the root filesystem is made, and the system is setup to boot off of that snapshot. So it is almost like having an overlayfs on openwrt. There is always a copy of the original system, and and changes that are being made are being done "on top" of the original. So in the event of an emergency, yo can always get back to the original working state.
If you put your root filesystem on something other than the root of the btrfs filesystem (which you should, as it makes the whole setup much more flexible), then you should also set up a mountpoint somewhere to give administrator access to the filesystem from subvolid=0. For example, I have an autofs mountpoint at /var/lib/btrfs-root. chose that spot because /var/lib is where devtools puts the clean chroot. So it seemed as reasonable a place as any.
You should go to the btrfs wiki, and peruse through the stuff there... not our wiki, but the actual btrfs one, as our wiki is pretty sparse. There is not all that much content there (not like the Arch wiki), but it does cover the features pretty well. I mean, there is certainly quite a lot for being information on only a single filesystem, but it shouldn't take you too long to get through it. There are a few links to articles about midway down the front page. What really gave me a better grasp of getting started with btrfs were the ones titled "How I Got Started with the Btrfs Filesystem for Oracle Linux" and "How I Use the Advanced Capabilities of Btrfs". -
Trying to understand the basic concept of object oriented programming.
I am trying to understand the basic concept of object oriented programming.
Object - a region of storage that define is defined by both state/behavior.
( An object is the actual thing that behavior affects.)
State - Represented by a set of variables and the values they contain.
(Is the location or movement or action that is the goal that the behavior is trying to accomplish.)
Variables- (What does this mean?)
Value - (What does this mean?)
Behavior - Represented by a set of methods and the logic they implement.
( A set of methods that is built up to tell's the how object to change it's state. )
Methods - A procedure that is executed when an object receives a message.
( A very basic comand.For example the method tells the object to move up, another method tells the method to go left. Thus making the object move up/left that combination is the behavior.)
Class - A template from which the objects are created.
( I am very confused on what classes are.)
- The definitions of the words I obtained from the "Osborne Teach Yourself Java". The () statements are how I interperate the Mechanisms (I do not know if Thats what you call them.) interact with each other. I understand my interpretation may be horribly wrong. I will incredibly appreciate all the support I may get from you.
Thank youObject oriented programming is a replacement for the older idea of procedural programming (you can research procedural programming in google). As I understand it, in procedural programming, you have a step by step set of function calls to accomplish some task. Each function receives a data structure, manipulates it, and passes it to the next function. The problem with this is that each function preforms some action for the overall task and can't easily be reused by some other task. Its also harder to read the flow of what is happening with raw data structures flying all over the place.
In object oriented programming, an object calls a function of another object and receives back, not a data structure, but another object. Objects contain a data structure that can only be accessed by its functions. An object is not so much a sub component of a bigger task, as it is a service that any other task can use for any purpose. Also, when you pass an object to the caller, the caller can ask questions about the data structure via its functions. The developer doesnt have to know what the previous function did to the data by reading up on any documentation, or having to reverse engineer the code.
I suggest the best way of learning this is to code something like a library object.
A library object contains a collection of book objects
A book object contains a collection of chapter objects
A chapter object contains a collection of paragraph objects
A paragraph object contains a collection of sentence objects
A sentence object contains a collection of word objects.
Add functions to each object to provide a service
Example: A library object should have a:
public void addBook(Book book)
public Book getBook(String title)
public boolean isBookInLibrary(String title)
The key is to add functions to provide a service to anyone who uses your object(s)
For example, what functions (service) should a paragraph object provide?
It shouldn't provide a function that tells how many words there are in a sentence. That function belongs to a sentence object.
Lets say you want to add a new chapter to a book. The task is easy to read
if you write your objects well:
Sentence sentence1=new Sentence("It was a dark and stormy night");
Sentence sentence2=new Sentence("Suddenly, a shot ran out");
Paragraph paragraph=new Paragraph();
paragraph.addSentence(sentence1);
paragraph.addSentence(sentence2);
Paragraphs paragraphs=new Paragraphs();
paragraphs.addParagraph(paragraph);
Library library= new Library();
library.getBook("My Novel").addChapter("Chapter 1",paragraphs).
Now, lets say you want to have a word count for the entire book.
The book should ask each chapter how many words it contains.
Each chapter should ask its paragraphs, each paragraph should ask
its sentences. The total of words should ripple up and be tallied at each
stage until it reaches the book. The book can then report the total.
Only the sentence object actually counts words. The other objects just tallies the counts.
Now, where would you assign a librarian? What object(s) and functions would you provide?
If written well, the project is easily extensible. -

Trying to understand iMac 10.6.8 better and find out if someone is spying on my computer.
Would like to find out if my computer is being spied on. Trying to understand info in "About my mac" means. Came across something in software Extensions...MACFramework: It says: Version: 10.8.0, Get Info String: MAC Framework Pseudoextension, SPARTA, Inc, 10.8.0, Kind: Universal,
Location: /System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/Plugins/MACFramework.kext, Kext Version: 10.8.0, Load Address: (built-in to the kernel), Valid: Yes,
Authentic: Yes, Dependencies: Satisfied.
What does this mean?
How/Where and What do I look for to see if someone is spying on my computer? And if so how do I remove it?The Mandatory Access Control Framework is part of OS X, and is not spyware.
If you want to know if someone is spying on your computer, install Little Snitch. It will tell you when anything new is trying to send something outside of your system. -
Trying to understand OIM - Please help
Hello All,
I am pretty new to OIM, just trying to understand how OIM works. For the past 4 years I was in Sun IdM and planning to switch over to OIM.
I read some documentation, I think OIM will perform basic provisioning and it contains out of box connectors to do basic provisoning. I have some questions can anybody please help
- Sun IdM uses Express language to develop custom workflows or forms, in OIM to develop workflows which language did you use, is it Java or any other language?
- If I want to provision users on AS/400, HP Open VMS or AIX systems, how can I do that I don't see any out of box connectors for these resources, so in order to integrate these resources do we need to write our own custom connectors?
- If the out of box connector does not support a specific function on a resource what are the options do we have? for example if the AD connector does not support to delete the exchange mailbox, how your going to perform this in OIM? Do we need to write a Java code for this?
- How much Java coding is necessary in OIM?
- Is OIM supports role based provisioning?
Please share any information.
Thanks in advance.Sun IdM uses Express language to develop custom workflows or forms, in OIM to develop workflows which language did you use, is it Java or any other language?
- JAVA
If I want to provision users on AS/400, HP Open VMS or AIX systems, how can I do that I don't see any out of box connectors for these resources, so in order to integrate these resources do we need to write our own custom connectors?
- If OOTB connectors are not available then you'll have build you own connector as per Target Resource.
If the out of box connector does not support a specific function on a resource what are the options do we have?
- You'll have customize their connector as per your requirements or write your own
How much Java coding is necessary in OIM?
- We can't calculate how much java. It's totally depends on requirements how much code you'll ahve to write. But everything will be done using Java only.
- Is OIM supports role based provisioning?
Here Group represent Role. At a small scale it supports. But for large scale you'll have to use Oracle Role Manager as you do in Sun Role Manager. -
Trying to understand the code???
Hi,
I am trying to understand the following bit of code, currently the code puts each catalogue into a different row of the table but i want each catalogue to be put in the next column
(so the catalogues appear across the page on the actual web page). The following code is for the page in question but im not sure how much is relevant so i will paste it all and highlight the section i think is relevant:
<html>
<%-- DECLARATIONS --%>

<% ItemCatalogueBean bean = (ItemCatalogueBean)SessionHelper.getSessionObject("ItemCatalogueBean",session);
String resourcePath = bean.getResourcePath(null);
String title = "Product catalogue";
String languageCode = bean.getLanguageCode();
%>
<%@ include file="FuncHead.jsp" %>

</html>i hope someone could help me to understand this,
thank you for your helpYou've probably already seen these, but here are a couple of links that may help.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform//reference/actionscript/3/operators.html#array_a ccess
http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/Array.html
What's basically happening is that the "for" loop goes through each item in the array. Don't be confused by the fact that two of the items in the array are Strings and one is an Integer - variable i being a String has nothing to do with the data type of the elements in the array.
The following code:
private function createLabels():void
var myArray:Array = ['one', 'two', 3];
for(var i:String in myArray)
trace("i = " + i);
trace(myArray[i]);
gives the following results:
i = 0
one
i = 1
two
i = 2
3
From that we can see that the "for" loop is assigning the index number of each array element, not the actual array element ('one', 'two', or 3) to the variable i. So calling myArray[i] is the same as calling myArray[0] the first time through the loop. This type of "for" loop is just a shorter way of doing the following, which produces exactly the same results:
private function createLabels():void
var myArray:Array = ['one', 'two', 3];
for(var i:int = 0; n < myArray.length; i++)
trace("i = " + i);
trace(myArray[i]);
Hope that helps.
Cheers! -
Element not found when duplicating "Basic EFS" template
I've been trying to duplicate the Basic EFS template as either a Windows 2003 or 2008
template and everytime I use the new template via GPO to encrypt (EFS) any files/folder, I keep getting the "Element Not Found" error. I've looked all over event logs and can not find any errors that will point me in the right direction to
troubleshoot this issue. I noticed it will only work if I use the Basic EFS template. I've Google and have found several forum posts that states to duplicate the Basic EFS template as a Windows 2003 template to fix this problem, but I'm still getting
the same error. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.Does it also fail if you start from a fresh user profile (no previous attempts to encrypt or enrol for certificates using any template)? This is to rule out any effects of caching anything, such thumbprints of EFS certificates used before
in the registry.
I would in particular repeat a test with a fresh profile and a W2K3 template after AD replication and GPO refresh has been done - I still think the most likely explanation is still that the client actually tried to use a W2K8 template which
was still cached.
After you created the W2K3 template - did you make any changes to the CSP / cryptography after you had copied Basic EFS? Which provider do you use - I guess it should be Enhanced or Strong provider?
Otherwise, I would probably compare all Object Access events for Basic EFS and for the other templates, and look for things like failed attempts to access key files. If there is nothing promising there, rather use
Process Monitor (Sysinternals) to compare "good" and "bad" encryption.
I admit that these tools are quite overwhelming and require some practice but I think I have exhausted all other ideas.
