WAAS issue with McAfee EPO

Hi, we have a customer with WAAS deployed between 2 sites.
They currently have an issue with McAfee End Policy Orchestrator.
This is set up to run from a server at the HQ to a server at the remote site every hour.
When this runs, it hangs on some of the larger files.
If this is run with waas turned off, it works but takes a long time.
If the folder is copied manually (with waas turned on), it works.
Any ideas/help would be much appreciated.
Colin

Zach,
This is a secure site & they haven't given us access yet to troubleshoot.
They do simulate this by manually copy & paste of the folder with the updates.
Will let you knowwhenwe get access
cheers
Colin

I can't connect to iTunes. I think it might be and issue with McAfee Security Center. Has anyone had this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

I can't connect to iTunes. I think it might be an issue with McAfee Security Center - not sure. I am getting an error code of -42408. (Don't know what that means...) Has anyone had this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

Having the same issue after downloading the lastest version of itunes. Apple is going to lose me as a customer, if this keeps up with their software updates. They never seem to work.
Really, they should want me to be able to access their store. That's money out of their pocket.
Honestly, I don't know why Apple doesn't have a techie monitering their support threads trying to help fix issues.
I don't have McAffee, so that wouldn't be my issue. I guess, I'll keep checking back to see if anyone has figured anything out.
I can't seem to sync my ipad, now either. Ebay is sounding really good.

Has anyone had issues with McAfee antivirus blocking tethering?

Hello all - trying to help my mother out with her laptop.
She has an Iphone 5S, and we tested - when she activates mobile hotspot, other devices can use it - I tried with my tablet & phone and had no issue - but her laptop is not able to connect to it.
She is running McAfee antivirus on the computer with Windows 7 Ultimate. In her wireless settings, the laptop can see the hotspot, but when she connects to it and enters the password, she gets a connection failure message and it drops. I'm thinking she has a case of over-zealous anti-virus software here - thoughts, hints, solutions?

I don't believe the anti-virus would affect the ability to connect to a wi-fi connection. You might, however, want to check the firewall, and or delete any reference to the network in the computer. Windows will allow you to connect to guest networks as long as they are identified as such. Once you begin the connection process, it asks you to identify the network type, home, public, etc. That will put some protections into place, and that has nothing to do with McAfee. I've never had my McAfee interfere with the connection to any wi-fi network, and I've been around a lot of different ones.

WAAS issue with NIC teaming

Hi,
Can someone tell me what has the NIC teaming effect on WAAS.
I was preparing a demo for one of my client but before this they were using another popular WAAS product. According to my client, they had a big network issue with NIC teaming, i.e one ip and 2 mac addresses with server loadsharing.
scenario.
Before the demo i just wanted to confirm that WAAS has nothing to do with the above mentioned problem...can anybody confirm...

Hmm... Still not quite sure what your saying. It sounds like by coincidence the other accelerator box got the same IP as one of their servers. They should have been able to fix that quite simple, not to mention test for it by doing the equivalent of "show int" on the box before plugging it in.
Or possibly they had some type of proxy arp configured wrong?
Either way we're running WAAS boxes on our networks that have teaming of NIC's via HP's teaming utility using "Transmit load balancing" on the servers. The WAAS boxes are configured for ether-channeling their NIC's and using WCCP for traffic redirection.
Actually, if you did them using WCCP rather than inline, there definitely shouldn't be a MAC conflict since the WAAS boxes will be on a different subnet at that point. No chance of a problem like that with Layer-3 separation...

Issues with McAfee IPS and HP PhotoSmart Premium C309g-m performing port scan

Trying to run a HP PhotoSmart Premium C309g-m printer wirelessly and connect to a laptop computer with Windows 7 32-bit operating system. Printer is available for about 3 and a half minutes and then is blocked by McAfee because the printer is trying to perform a UDP port scan. The IP address of the printer is blocked for 10 minutes and then becomes available again. After about 3 and a half minutes, the printer IP address is again blocked by McAfee IPS for 10 minutes and the cycle repeats again. Goes on all day. Difficult to get any work done. Anyone have a fix to stop the port scans? Thanks

Hello JWB46,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand when you scan a document, it takes longer and the background is black with horizontal white lines or a greenish background. I will do my best to assist you! First, I need to find out your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?
How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB?
Please make sure you have followed this entire HP document on Color or Brightness Level of Scanned Image is Not Correct. I would like to test out the hardware within your printer. Try copying a blank document on the scanner glass. Let me know if you have the same results. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!
I worked on behalf of HP.

Are there any known issues with speed between excel 2003 and 2010 when using WAAS?

Request asked by customer. Thought I would run this by the forum first.
Can you please raise a ticket with Cisco TAC asking why Excel files in 97-2003 file format cannot be fully optimized when compared to the same file being saved in the latest file format?
When using the latest file format, the user experience is amazing and up to 100x faster to open and save files. Our testing has identified an issue with the older file format.

I deployed WAAS about 3 years ago. Part of the deployment was before and after testing. When the users used Office 2010 the results were good. When they used Office 2003 the results were terrible. Some files took minutes to open, some never opened. Solution was to upgrade to O2010.
Hope this helps.

Just recently I am getting the following error message when trying to access web sites. I get a pop up window stating "Exc in ev handl: TypeError: c.location is null" then I have to click ok. It is an issue with some plug-in?

It doesn't matter what web link/site I go to it happens. It is an issue with some plug-in?

I have advised McAfee's product team of the problem and this thread, and they're looking into it now.

I am having issues with connecting to the store...the page just hangs and when I run Diagnostics it states that a secure connection could not be established.

I have contacted apple via email and tried all the steps they have recommended and it is still not working.
I have tried disabling my McAfee and that does not work either.
Anyone that the phone number to apple express so I don't have to keep waiting for them to email within 48 hours?
Thanks.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

VzTech help with McAfee Kudos

With everything that's been going on with Verizon lately and my dismay with the company I had no anticipations of my new issue being resolved. However, I must say that the Verizon Technical Support helped me out with McAfee and the VISS.
The story goes like this,
When I opened McAfee and went to do the updates it just sat there, did nothing, no circle rotating, just said 0 complete.
Then I ran the MVT (McAfee Virtual Tech) and it showed 2 major errors that it could not fix:
1 - would not download the updated database
2 - Program Subscription Update Needed
So, I scanned my PC and found nothing, then I rebooted & ran the MVT. Same issues detected by the MVT.
Next step Verizon online Tech Support.
After granting the Tech permission to connect to my PC they seen exactly what I said & the errors replicated for them too.
The Tech asked if I tried a reinstall, no not yet.
Tech told me to wait while they talked to their backend Tech team on the "Program Subscription Update Needed" issue.
Tech decided that a conference call was in order.
They called me & conference with McAfee, and VzTech ended our session.
McAfee Tech then needed access to my PC, ok.
It took about 50min with McAfee who ended up uninstalling & reinstalling the software.
They stayed on the phone with me until the software was fully installed and working again & my PC was secured.
The whole process from Verizon Tech through McAfee Tech took approximately 1hr and 10min.
The only issues I had was understanding the heavy Indian accent from the McAfee Tech, but we got through it with a few "excuse me, can you repeat that again". And I wasnt able to save my session info from VzTech as the McAfee Tech closed all the windows in explorer oh well LOL
Thanks to the Verizon Tech team in assisting with the issues I had and getting it up and running again. Kudos!

Click on the shield bottom right of screen:
Select Virus and spyware protection
Select Scan your PC
Select Run a custom scan
Then there are a number of options for you to chooses what to scan.
However I would get a different anti virus software as the one thing I do not like about this is that it has a mind of its own when it comes to updates and will update when it wants to which slows the PC down and whatever you do you can not stop the update. This is very annoying if you are trying to do something which is time dependent.

Adobe screwed up my computer with McAfee install

After updating my Adobe Acrobat program, I noticed that McAfee Security Plus had been installed on my computer. I immediately uninstalled the software since I use other Virus protection software, but it has permanently screwed up my Ethernet network connection. I have since researched the problem on the MacAfee Community Forms and there are literally THOUSANDS of others who have had the same problem with McAfee. I have tried all the suggested solutions posted and none of them worked – my Internet connection (via the built-in Ethernet port) has been permanently destroyed. Note that I have tried a Wi-Fi USB card which works flawlessly. NOTE: McAffe is UNINSTALLED but my network card is still screwed up.
Since Adobe installed this software with the Acrobat update, I want to know how Adobe will be compensating customers whose computers they screwed up with the destructive software they included inside their trojan horse called Adobe Reader X download?

With all due respect, Claudio, Adobe was the agent responsible for the installation of McAfee on my computer - I never went to the store to buy the McAfee product and I never visited their website to download it. As an agent, presumably Adobe also earn a commission for selling the software and, just like a car dealer that sells you a lemon, are responsible for their actions as well as the manufacturer. Saying Adobe is not responsible is like telling Troy that their defeat can't be blamed on the Trojan Horse. If the Trojan Horse had never been built, then Troy would not have been defeated.
The second reason I blame Adobe is because the box is pre-checked beside "Yes install McAfee.. etc." (see my first post). IF that box had been unchecked I and many others who have upgraded Adobe software would never have installed the McAfee mess. Adobe is counting on most customers, like myself, to click on the much more prominent red INSTALL button without reading everything on the page. If the box were always UNCHECKED, then Adobe would earn substantially less commisions because most people, myself included, would ignore the offering.
It's easy to say that Adobe is not responsible, but Adobe has been IRRESPONSIBLE in selling defective software and in sneaking it in with their updates in ways where most people won't notice it.
If Adobe were truly honorable, they would:
Apologize for being the agents for installation of this badly-designed software
Change the selection box to UNSELECTED
Add a pop-up disclaimer advising that this ADDITIONAL software is about to be installed and that Adobe accepts no liability for errors or other issues that are caused by this third-party software. And then require the user to click another box among choices like: I UNDERSTAND, PLEASE INSTALL THIS 3rd PARTY PROGRAM ANYWAY or NO WAY - DO NOT INSTALL ANY THIRD PARTY PROGRAM ON MY COMPUTER.
I don't understand why a company like Adobe with as good a reputation as they have for their own products would continue to associate themselves with these idiots.
Sincerely,
Ron Finnigan

Conflict with McAfee and BT Hub

I recently bought a new McAfee subscription to cover both the Mac and Bootcamp operations. Installation was blocked saying an application was already installed. McAfee support spent 2 hours trying to resolve this, without success. They uninstalled my previous version of McAfee, so I am now without virus protection. I have just installed superfast broadband. BT tell me there is a known issue with their hub and the Mac OS, following an update to the Mac OS. It took them 90 minutes to install a temporary fix so I could send e-mail. Anyone know what's going on? Regards, Adrian

You won't find much support for or reason to use McAfee for 10.6.8 or 10.8.3
As for Windows, you really don't need their paid subscription. Use MS Security Essentials now for years. Ask if you want on Bootcamp forum. That will handle Windows 7 & 8 just fine.

If the option "Wipe out disks and install .bin image" fails because it can't find disk00 you most likely need an RMA for a disk and you will need to open a TAC case to get this processed.

Strange Networking Issue with OES

Since moving our entire infrastructure from Netware to OES, I've been trying to figure out a very strange issue. We are a K-12 school system with a data center at the central offices and a single server at each school. The data center has the servers that run all the centralized stuff, including the Master replicas for [root], the DA's for SLP, etc. We noticed that sometimes a school's server will drop out of the SLP tables. When that happens, we also cannot SSH to the school's server from the central servers. We can SSH to it from any other machine on the same subnet as the central servers. The central servers can ping it, but no UDP/TCP traffic can pass between them (no web traffic, etc). We finally realized it only happens when the ISP that serves that school has a brief blip or outage of some sort. The only way we have found to get the servers talking again is to reboot the central servers.
We have tried:
Restarting almost all services on central servers
Stopping and restarting networking
Switching to runlevel 1 and then back
Stopping firewall and/or shutting it off completely
Checking hosts.deny files
Disabling virus scanner (McAfee Enterprise)
Changing vmware network drivers from E1000 (known issue with vSphere 5.1) to VMXNET3
All servers run on HP Proliant servers (blades at central office, towers at schools) running vSphere 5.1. Links between the central office and schools are all 100Mbps fiber via two different ISP (depending on the school's location). A restart of the central office server fixes it every time. I am out of ideas now and at a loss as to why this happens when a WAN link goes down. We thought it was just isolated to one ISP, but it was just that that particular ISP is not quite as reliable as the other. We had an extended power outage at a school served by another ISP over the weekend and saw the same issue with that server after power was restored.
Any ideas or suggestions at where else we should be looking? We also run ZCM 11 at each school and the central office. When this happens, those servers never lose connectivity with each other and with the OES servers on each end. The ZCM servers run on the same vSphere host as the OES servers.

To be clear, while i think this correlation is possible, I do not see any
possibility of causality in here unless your SSH client is somehow using
SLP to resolve the SSH server, which seems very unlikely. I'm not sure if
you're trying to state that SLP is the cause of the SSH stuff, but I do
not think you are.

Hmmm........... so routing works, and the server is even responding to
requests made to it (presumably, or something else is), but SSH is not
responding, or something is preventing it from responding.

I'd get a LAN trace from both sides at the same time. At the very least,
run tcpdump as shown below on both the central office machine as well as
the remote machine to see how the packets differ when trying different
things. If you do a test and do not see output on both sides, do it again
writing it to a file and post somewhere for us to review. Note: since
it's an SSH problem I would either NOT SSH into the system, or I'd be sure
to limit the tcpdump capture/output to something specific to the
connection being tested. Tracing something over which you are sending the
tracing data is never fun since every packet picked up causes another
packet to be generated, to be picked up, to be generated.... ad infinitum.
To see tcpdump output with limited details on the screen:
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/tcpdump -n -s 0 -i any -vv
To write tcpdump output to a file:
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/tcpdump -n -s 0 -i any -w /tmp/problem-20140408.cap
While filtering when capturing is typically not desired, you can do it by
adding something like 'host 10.1.2.3' to the list of tcpdump parameters at
the end of either of those two commands. The reason filtering during
capturing is not desired is that you may miss something.... the SLP
traffic, DNS, ARP, ICMP error showing the exact problem, etc.
Good luck.

Issues with Creative Cloud for teams deployment workflow

The Adobe Creative Cloud for teams IT Deployment Guide lists out steps for IT admins to deploy the CS6 applications and then have their end-users license the trial software with their Adobe IDs once they have been invited to the team. There are two major issues with this document.
First, the media that is on the FTP is not for North American English. We are working to get that posted on the FTP site ASAP. In the meantime, you can find the CS6 MC media from: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/
[Note: Getting media from that page requires the use of the Adobe Download Assistant which is very consumer focused. Sorry about that.]
Second, in order to have the ability to login properly with a Creative Cloud for Teams account the system needs to have the latest copy of Adobe Application Manager installed. If you do not do this step the end user will be prompted for a serial number.
Unfortunately the Adobe Application Manager can’t be packaged with AAMEE nor is it a native installer. I know, I know! Here are the links to the Adobe Application Manager installers:
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774
It can be installed from command line by:
Win: <Path to Setup.exe>Set-up.exe –mode=silent –action=install
Mac: <path to ASU> /ASU/Install.app/Contents/MacOS/Install –mode=silent –action=install

Hi Boncker,
I see that you have an active Subscription under your account . Please launch any of the installed product and when you get the trial prompt , please click on License this software and then Enter the Adobe Id & Password for the account that you have accepted the invite .
Please do let us know if that worked for you or not .

Issue with magsafe/charging (blinks green, amber, off)

Having a quirky issue with my mid-2009 Macbook Pro.
A month or so ago, I began having an issue with my macbook charging. When the computer is up and running and I plug in the magsafe it will say "Calculating..." and then say "Not Charging" and then switch to battery use. It constantly does this as long as the magsafe is connected. The lights on the magsafe will constantly cycle from green to amber to no light.
At first, it would do it a few times then it would start charging. Now it constantly does this without ever stopping. I was editing video the other day for a while and it never stopped the cycle.
Thinking it was the battery, I took it into the Apple Store last week and got a new battery because it had been saying "Service battery" for a while and the battery would only last about 20 minutes on a charge. So I just thought the battery finally refused to charge.
But the problem still exists.
The magsafe is new (only 3 months old) and here's the quirky thing: the computer will charge if it's asleep (lid closed) or shut down completely. No blinking lights at all. It will charge as long as it's asleep or shut down. So I don't think it's the charger. But as soon as you hit the power button to starting booting up, it will blink.
I have reset the SMC a couple times actually, but no change.
Is there something software/firmware related that I haven't tried? Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated before I take it back to the Apple Store (which is about an hour away).
Thanks!
