ISE 1.3 Why are Windows endpoints defaulting to 802.1x machine authentication in wireless profile and not User or User&Computer

We are running ISE 1.3 tied to AD with WLC 7.6.130.0. Our ISE has a GoDaddy (none wildcard) certificate loaded for https and EAP. We are just running PEAP. We have a mix of IOS, Android, and Windows 7/8 devices. IOS and Android devices can self create a wireless profile and after entering credentials can connect without issue. Our Windows 7/8 devices, when auto creating a wireless profile are selecting 802.1x machine authentication instead of User authentication or the best option which is machine or user authentication. This is problematic as we do allow for machine authentication but have an authorization rule limiting machine auth to domain controller and ISE connectivity only. This is to allow domain Windows 7/8 devices to have domain connectivity prior to user sign-in but force user auth to get true network connectivity. The problem is why are the Windows devices not auto setting to user authentication (as I think they did when we ran ISE1.2), or the best option which is to allow both types of authentication? I have limited authentication protocols to just EAP CHAP and moved the machine auth profile to the bottom of the list. Neither have helped. I also notice that the Windows 7/8 endpoints have to say allow connectivity several times even though we are using a global and should be trusted certificate authority (probably a separate issue).
Thank you for any help or ideas,

When connecting a windows device to the ISE enabled SSID when there is not a saved wireless profile on that machine, it will connect and auto create the profile. In that profile, 802.1x computer authentication option is chosen by windows. That has to be changed to computer or user for the machine to function correctly on the network.
On 1.2, this behavior was different. The Windows device would auto select user authentication by default. At other customer sites, windows devices auto select user authentication. This of course needs to be changed to user or computer in order to support machine auth, but at least the default behavior of user authentication would allow machines to get on the network and functional easily to begin with.

Windows 8.1 Group Policy based Wireless Profiles do not appear to be working

I'm wondering if anyone else out there has run into the same issue as I am seeing. The environment is all Server 2012(not R2), with Windows 8.1 clients.
I configure a GPO that is linked to the entire domain/authenticated users and contains a Windows Vista and Later wireless network profile. Let's call it "GPO_Wireless. It is configured to automatically connect it to a specific SSID, the
encryption settings are unimportant, as I've tried numerous approaches. In our case, we're trying to do EAP-TLS with the NPS role. We have the CA rolled out, NPS has a proper cert, and the clients are auto-enrolling for both Computer and User certs.
This is all verified as working. We've also tried straight password authentication.
I refresh group policy on a Windows 8.1 client and see that Computer Policy "GPO_Wireless" is being applied to the client. I restart the computer, but it does not connect to the wireless network.
I run "netsh wlan show profiles" and under "Group Policy Profiles(read only)" it is blank.
I run gpresult /r /scope computer again, and it shows "GPO_Wireless" is being applied.
The last note is that Windows 7 clients can connect to the wireless just fine.

Hi，
For the client side, I would like to know if the windows 7 as you mentioned used the same Group Police like Windows 8.1.
Meanwhile, I suggest you try using script as a workaround.

Windows 7 / Server 2003 Roaming profile synchronization error at logoff (ntuser.pol)

Hi all,
I have implemented Roaming Profiles for a few test users on Windows 7 PC's (Windows Server 2003) and everything is working well aside from one error I'm seeing at logoff ('Your roaming user profile was not completely synchronized. See the event log
for details or contact your administrator.')
The event log reveals event ID's 1504 and 1509. 1504 is flagging the fact that Windows cannot update the roaming profile completely. 1509 shows the following:
'Windows cannot copy file C:\Users\jtest\ntuser.pol to location \\server\Profiles$\jtest.V2\ntuser.pol. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
Other observations:
This issue occurs with all test users upon each logoff attempt except for the very first logoff, where there is no network share copy of ntuser.pol to get in the way.
Prior to logoff, the network share copy of ntuser.pol has an older timestamp than the local copy. This is not a cause or symptom but it leads me to believe updating the network copy of the file at logoff is normal/required behavior.
If I delete the network share copy of ntuser.pol prior to logoff the error does not occur. I don't suspect file permissions are the cause since I used the same user having difficulty logging off to delete the network share copy of the file.
ntuser.dat has no problem overwriting itself upon logoff.
I was able to repeat the problem with two windows 7 clients.
I've been all over the usual suspects (i.e. group policies affecting roaming profiles, file/folder permissions, installed every hotfix relating to roaming profiles and folder redirection, and googled every keyword) and came up empty. I confirmed offline
caching for the profile share is disabled.
Does anyone know what may be going on here? I'd greatly appreciate a point in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

You could too run a process monitor to watch what happen. With filter you can easilly configure it on the server to not log everything except read|write on the profile.

How do I correct a Windows Vista error for HP Officejet 6500 E709n wireless?

I continue to get a Windows Vista error when trying to install the printer software ...now it does print, but only the bottom half of a page..???

Dave, I would recommend completely uninstalling the printer from Programs and Features (after unplugging the USB cord if you are using one), and removing the printer from both Device Manager and Devices and Printer.
We are going to reinstall the printer from one of the downloads that HP makes available, but first I will have to know if your printer is the 6500A or the 6500. Also is your Win Vista machine running 64bit software or 32bit software?
If you can give me a complete product name and the information on your system, I will link you to the appropriate download.
Let me know!

Saved Monitor Profile Not Loading In Windows XP

I normally use a Mac for PS, but I have Adobe Gamma installed as Control Panel on my Windows XP machine, so I can correct the monitor balance.
After I run the Wizard, I save a new sRGB Color Space Profile.icm in Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color.
But every time I restart Windows, it resets itself, and my monitor balance is off - much too light.
What gives?
How do you get Windows XP to load this profile each time?
Thanks.

check the display settings. your video driver could be overriding adobe gamma with it's own color profile.

Wireless Profile (System Payload) - A keychain cannot be found to store....

Hey Guys,
Got a rather complex one here which I'm reasonably sure is specifically just a 10.10 Yosemite bug in itself but here's some background, hopefully someone else can replicate it and offer an explanation.
I work at a school and we have WPA2 enterprise wireless utilising certificates and TLS authentication, where as part of TLS we provide a username which matches the certificate name.
We create our wireless profiles for devices through Casper or iPhone Configuration Utility (both output the same file and both work). We are finding that in Yosemite, only user level wireless profile payloads are deploying error free.
Casper allows you to create a system payload wireless profile (mobileconfig), and I also know the lines to modify within an exported iPhone Configuration Utility profile to make it a system one.
If we attempt to deploy a system level payload of a wireless profile, we are meeting the error:
"A keychain cannot be found to store TLSUSERNAMEHERE"
You can then choose to select 'Cancel' or 'Reset to Defaults'
I notice that at this point, the wireless is already in fact connected and am clicking 'Cancel' and just moving on.
If you choose to click 'Reset to Defaults' you get the message:
"Are you sure you want to reset your keychain? This will delete all your saved passwords, keys, and certificates. You cannot undo this operation"
You can then choose to select 'Cancel' or 'Reset'
When you choose 'Reset' a window appears stating:
"Please enter your login password. This password will be used to create your new keychain."
You then attempt to enter your password in the text box, however nothing you type appears in the text box at all. You can tick show password which should show what you're typing but still nothing appears in the text box, all you see is a flashing cursor, no password dots, characters or anything. You click OK and it just closes the window.
However the above exact same mobileconfig file works fine on every OSX we have except for 10.10 Yosemite.
We have also tried deploying this same profile on multiple devices running 10.10 Yosemite and they all have the exact same error.
The fact that the profile starts working before you respond to the error indicates to me that this is a false error or a bug within 10.10 Yosemite itself, especially given when you try to do the reset it's indicating you should do, you cant even enter any text and pressing ok just closes it off completely.
Unfortunately I can't find anyone else that's had this problem - can anyone shed some light on this?

Having the exact same issue here. Trying to enable 802.1x wifi on MacBook Airs so that they can authenticate to AD at login and mount user home directories properly. Loading the profile developed to allow connection to wireless before the actual login to the computer gives exactly the same symptoms. I believe, but am not sure that it is because the TLSUSERNAME and password are stored in the profile, and it doesn't know how/where to store the login. The not being able to type in the "Reset" is also identical.
Any updates or ideas? 100% reproducible on 20 different MacBook Airs for 20 different users.

One Wireless Profile in ACCESS CONNECTIONS interferes with another?

I have a profile on my T61 laptop for my secured home wireless connection. It's worked fine (now that I've figured out all the idiosyncracies of ACCESS CONNECTIONS) up to today.
Last night, I connected to a Boingo wireless system at the airport, and saved the profile in ACCESS CONNECTIONS.
Today, when I tried to connect to my home system via my home wireless profile, I continually was told by ACCESS CONNECTIONS that the router was out of range or unavailable. I checked my profile and all settings were correct for my home wireless. All profiles are turned off for automotic location switching.
Long story short -- after other failed steps, I finally deleted the Boingo airport profile from ACCESS CONNECTIONS, and suddenly ACCESS CONNECTIONS was able to connect to my home wireless system again.
Why would one wireless profile interfere and seeming superimpose its connection settings onto my home wireless profile? I believe I now have found another idiosyncracy, it seems?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here is the solution to the problem.
GoBoingo has a software program that is set to run during Startup (MSCONFIG in Windows XP); this program alerts the laptop user to the presence of a nearby BOINGO wireless hot spot. This program apparently is interfering with ACCESS CONNECTIONS in the sense that it seems to point the laptop's wireless to a BOINGO access point, regardless of whether one is nearby or not. Then, when I try to use ACCESS CONNECTIONS to connect to the home wireless profile, I'm told that the wireless router is out of range -- and, of course, it is, except that it's a BOINGO wireless router, not my home wireless router.
The solution is to remove the GoBoingo software from running in the Startup window, and instead manually start up the software if one wants to check for a nearby BOINGO wireless hot spot. After unchecking GoBoingo from Startup list, and rebooting the computer, I was able to connect to my home wireless router without any problems.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

T60 does not automatically connect to wireless profile at bootup any more

Probably my rose-colored-glasses mistake again.
I let the ThinkVantage system updater install most of the latest updates last night including the
wireless adapter software. Now, when I boot up, my PC no longer automatically connects to
my wireless profile. The radio is on and it is obvious it knows the network is there because it
is highlighted in the Access Connections menu with a Connect option.
It connects just fine when click Connect.
It will still automatically switch between ethernet and wireless when I plug and unplug the
ethernet cable even if I have specifically disconnected from the wireless connection before
plugging in the ethernet cable. It also automatically connects when I log off Windows and log back on.
Is there a setting some place that controls whether it should automatically connect to a
wireless profile at bootup?
I love the brain-dead online FAQ about this exact problem.
It says to click the Connect button if it happens.
Well, duh! What do I do to make it automatically connect like it used to?
I tried unchecking the "allow computer to turn off the radio" setting as other suggested.
But, my problem is not the radio being off.
Thanks

Hi sashton,
When troubleshooting Wi-Fi connectivity issues, I find the following resource has the most relevant information:
Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
Furthermore, you may want to avoid giving your network a common name. While the following article (and excerpt) refer to iOS devices, the same applies for your Mac:
Avoid giving your wireless network a common name (SSID)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4450
If you were to give your wireless network a common name (SSID), users of your network who use iOS devices [sic] and are away from your network would run the risk of joining a different network with the same name. Having joined the unexpected network, they would be exposed to potential data theft.
Because of this security issue, Apple maintains a list of common or ambiguous SSIDs, including the default SSID for many commercially available access points, as well as the SSIDs "wireless" and "default". If your network's name is on the list, any iOS device [sic] that joins the network stores the access point's BSSID and associates it with the network's SSID. Subsequently, it will only auto-join the network if the access point's BSSID matches the information the device has stored. This avoids joining a different network with the same name.
Therefore, you may want to refer to the following article when configuring your Wi-Fi router:
iOS and OS X: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

Windows 7 64 bit wireless latency

I have been struggling with an odd issue effecting openvpn on Windows 7 64-bit wireless. Performance is very sluggish and my ping latency is very high across the openvpn connection when compared to WinXP wireless and Win7 wired connections.
This appears to be an issue with the Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN wireless card. No firmware updates are available from Lenovo or Intel for the card.
Average ping latency is 30ms across vpn from WinXP in both wireless and wired as well as Win7 wired. But goes to 130ms+ from Win7 wireless connection! This translates to a remote session that is like working through molasses. Stepping through code in Visual Studio on a remote machine from the Windows 7 machine when on a wireless connection has so much lag time it becomes unusable. Making the remote connection on a wired ethernet or WinXP wireless N is as responsive as sitting in front of the remote machine.
Appears that my MTU is optimal for my internet connection. I tested and found that 1480 is the minimum size packet where I can ping and return a "Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set." response. So I am leaving my MTU at 1500 on both wired and wireless on Win7 machine.
So far I have (I believe) ruled out the following:
Firewalls - both windows and at router - have turned off both with no effect
Antivirus - no change with it deactivated
Router settings - put laptop in DMZ and no change
MTU - tested 1500 as optimal
Thinkpad drivers and BIOS - all latest
Has anyone else run into issues with this Intel 1000 wireless card?
Thanks,
Jeff

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had a real problem with wireless performance on multiple ThinkPads with Win7 until I realized there is a new (or maybe changed implementation) power setting in Win7 which was affecting it.
If you go into Control Panel -> Power Options and click "Change plan settings" for your current power plan.
On the next screen click on "Change advanced power settings"
On the next screen expand "Wireless Adapter Settings" and then "Power Saving Mode"
Make sure it is set to Maximum Performance.
Not sure if this will help your particular problem but hope it does.

I am unable to install iTunes due to Windows Installer error message on Vista

I needed to update my iTunes since I purchased the iPad2. My Windows Vista machine will not allow me to update the program due to a "Windows Installer" error message. I first attempted to update, then I uninstalled and am unable to reinstall the software."There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run..."

I finally got the program to install/run. I downloaded a third copy and saved it again on the desktop. I selected "Run as Administrator" instead of "Run" It must have been the 10th plus time I tried to install, but this time it completed. I don't know if the "Run as Administrator" was the key since it is Vista, or if I just got lucky. Either way I am relieved.
