Hi

I am task with disabling ntlmv1 and working through the auditing phase by setting the comtabilitlyLevel to 4, then goal is bump up to 5 once all applications using ntlmv1 have been remediated or added to exclusion list

My question is if I set to CompLevel to 5 does this mean that ntlmv2 with be the preferred over Kerberos? or  will Kerberos still be used first, and only if failed will used ntlmv2?

Thanks in advance


How to disable Credential Manager to store passwords from VPN connections?

$

Hello

Workstation is domain member with Windows 7 Enterprise. When I connecting via VPN with some credentials, it stores automatically in Credential Manager with "*Session" marker. When I connecting to network shares on domain servers, workstation use credentials, stored in Credential Manager. So, because stored credentials is different from domain user account, workstation can't connect to network shares in domain. When I manually remove stored "*Session" credentials, workstation connecting to domain servers OK. So I need to disable storing passwords from VPN connections in Credential Manager because it different from domain user account.

P.S. I am already posted this question on "Windows 7 Security, Privacy, and User Accounts" forum, but no answers at all. May be here somebody can help me?

Disable TLS 1.0 on all Ports on Windows Server 2012 R2

I am running Windows 2012 R2 and I have disabled TLS 1.0 in both the registry and using IISCrypto.  However, my security scanner is still showing TLS 1.0 in use on certain ports, 443, 5989, 8443, 9443.  If TLS 1.0 is disabled, how is it still available on these ports and how can I completely disable it on the server?

Update/Renew Issuing CA Certificate

$

Hi,

I want to update the issuing CA certificate as it is going to expire soon, What are the best options for me so that i do not need to worry about client devices using certificates(computers,network appliances etc)

Option1: Renew the certificate with the same key, it generates a new certificate with existing key
Option2: Renew the certificate with the new key, It generates a new certificate with a new key

What are the next steps? as existing certificate is still valid I should not be worried about clients but I need to find a way to distribute the new intermediate certificate to all the devices through AIA(LDAP & HTTP)?
When I issue new certificates(3 years) does it use the new one?

Pls provide guidance

Hi,

I am very new to PKI and I am currently trying to set up an two-tier PKI environment.

The OS for my Root CA and Sub CA are Windows server 2016 and I am using a luna HSM to store my keys.

I have successfully setting up my Root CA and Sub CA without any errors but when I am trying to renew my Sub CA I have the following error:

An error occurred when creating the new key container "My_Sub_CA_Name(1)". Please make sure the CSP is installed correctly or select another CSP. Provider DLL failed to initialize correctly. 0x8009001d (-2146893795 NTE_PROVIDER_DLL_FAIL)  

I have tried using the command "vtl verify" and I can see my HSM so anyone can help me regarding about this error?

Is the TLS 1.0 being disabled or not?

I tried to disable TLS 1.0 in the Microsoft server 2012 R2 using the method recommended by Microsoft.(link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-fs/operations/manage-ssl-protocols-in-ad-fs)

However, when I scan the servers, some of the ports are still using TLS 1.0.

Does anyone know whether the TLS 1.0 is disabled or not?

AD Domain Controller has Two Valid Certificates for LDAP/S - Which Would it Pass to a Client Coming in?

$
0
0

Hi,

In my scenario, I have services wanting to do LDAP/S binds to AD DCs. The DCs have a DC certificate from a tactical PKI which was deployed a dozen years ago - the services (typically UNIX) trust the DC cert back to the root.  We would like to deploy a new ADCS PKI and initially the DCs will contain 'legacy' DC certs and 'new' DC certs chaining to a different root.  We know that we need to make the services making the binds trust the CA chain which issues the new DC certs, so we'd be sure that whatever DC cert is picked in the LDAP/S bind won't be a problem.  No issues with that - that 'story' is just background.

We have another application, this time on a non-domain joined Windows server which will also need to make LDAP/S binds to a DC.  We can if necessary make this server trust the old and new CAs, however, I was asked the question "If a service talks to a DC to retrieve a cert for LDAP/S purposes, which cert would the DC hand back to satisfy the request?" i.e. providing the cert satisfies criteria such as time valid, has the right usage, etc. will it simply give the first one back alphabetically, or choose the newest one, etc.?

I think this could be similar to what an IIS server would have to do if it had two valid SSL certs from different chains.  When a browser makes an HTTPS request, which cert would the IIS server / CAPI chuck back to the client?

Sorry about such a load of verbose, I'll try to make it short here: "If a Windows server has two valid certs for a particular purpose, which one would it pick to chuck back to a client coming in with a request?"

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks, Chipeater

2008 R2 Certificate Authority In Place Upgrade to 2012 R2

$

Hello,

I've been reviewing all the MS Documentation on CA Migrations, but none cover In-Place upgrades.  No documentation against the idea either.

We have a single Root CA running 2008 R2, I would like to upgrade to 2012 R2 in place. 

Is that possible?

Not recommended?

Do I need to update to 2008 R2 w/SP1 first?

Or is it just better to Migrate to new installed 2012 R2 server?

Thanks, Tony

Windows Server 2012R2 | Windows Event Forwarder Issues (Event: 102 / Code: 5004)

Hey all,

I'm currently trying to implement Event collection in our environment but, I cannot get WEF working.  The following are things I've done:

1. Configured winrm on the client and collector machines
2. Deployed a GPO that pointed the client machines to the collector for event forwarding
3. created a subscription on my WEF machine and selected:
   1. Destination: Forwarded Events
   2. Source Computer initiated
   3. Computer groups: Domain Computers
   4. Select Events: Critical, warning
4. Then selected OK and activated the subscription.  

I currently have all my source computers checking in but, I'm still getting the same error (Event 102 / Code 5004). I've added the WEF to the domain group Event Reader and confirmed winRM connection. 

What am I doing wrong?

Windows Updates not seen

Hi I have numerous Windows server systems the our vulnerability scan is saying needs KB4018196 - KB4018466 - KB4018556 - KB4018821 - KB4018885 - KB4018927 - KB4019149 - KB4019204 - KB4019206.

If I have Windows Update check the MS site for updates it says there are no critical updates needed but a couple of important ones none of which are on this list. I don't see these as installed on the system and I haven't seen them replaced by another update that I can find. Several of these are related to Wannacry so I know they are critical. Why doesn't Win Update see them as nneded or being installed?

TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 in Windows Server 2008 SP2

We are having a server with OS, Windows Server 2008 SP2, and since it does not support TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2, we have just applied the patch, KB4019276, which is released in July, 2017. 

The server is restarted, and we have also enabled the TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 in registry and restarted the server. But when we use IISCrypto.exe to check the setting, it still does not show TLS 1.1 as well as TLS 1.2. 

When we go to IE Internet Options | Advanced, we also still cannot see "Use TLS 1.1" and "Use TLS 1.2". Please advice

AD Role Authorization in IIS with nested group membership across a trust relationship

$
0
0

Background/Infrastructure (Just remember I didn't design it!):

I have a website(MVC5) which is deployed into production, dev, test, etc. Each of those environments is in its own domain, and the users are in another domain again. ALL of the environment domains completely trust the user account domain, but they do not trust each other.

I am attempting to get my website to work for users in all of the various environments without using credentials from those specific domains - most users don't have accounts in the other domains but will use this website. The end user experience is to type in the url for a domain and have it know who they are.

Because this is all domain based it is easy enough to setup IIS for windows authentication, that's done and working.

Problem:

Where I'm stuck is the authorization across domains. In each domain I have a group (eg DEV\WebsiteAccess) which is for access to this website. I added a group from the users domain (eg FABRIKAM\DevSystemUsers) into that access group, and it doesn't work. If I put the user into the DEV group directly, it DOES work.

It would seem that IIS is unable to traverse the full tree across the trust. The service account running the website is a DEV domain admin. DEV fully trusts FABRIKAM.

Is anyone aware of a way to tell IIS to walk the permissions on the other side?

Thanks

Jeff
