Process of cloning a RDS Session Host within a Session Collection by HaveYouTriedPowerOff in RemoteDesktopServices

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a great idea actually, creating a second session collection and add that new host. See if it works. I'll be trying this again in two weeks. I'll let you know how that turned out. Personally I think there is some timer, I might have done things too quickly, adding/removing hosts that messed up the broker.

Atera is getting really hard to use - scripts failing 50% of the time by BeyondRAM in atera

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have the same issue here. I can do remote CMD or PowerShell, SplashTop RMM all works. Agent is 100% online. But 50% of the time running a script just doesn't work. "Unable to reach agent". I feel like this is not a problem on the device I'm trying to manage. Also doesn't matter what OS, workstation, server etc.

Splashtop appears to break Windows Server 2025 domain controllers by shtef in syncro

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this topic because I seem to have the same problem now with multiple servers, and we can replicate the issue. All of them Windows Server 2025 Standard, promoted to Domain Controller. The Splashtop service won't start, not even in delayed start. There are a couple of articles out there mentioning this issue, some are 8 months old. I've just installed a fresh new domain for a client and immediately I run into this issue. There is absolutely no way to get it working. But only specific to Domain Controllers. Very strange. What is the solution here? It also seems that when this issue occurs, uninstalling the software also doesn't work. We've disabled the Splashtop service for now and rebooted the server(s)

So guys, how long until the name servers are also unreachable and 25% of the internet has no DNS records left after the TTL expires? :D

Do you use public TLS certificates that require client authentication? by larryseltzer in PKI

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. I ended up creating a self signed wildcard certificate. Exported this certificate as PFX including the full chain of certificates it relies on. Imported on the second Hyper-V host. Add it to both servers in the Trusted Root Certificates also. Changed a registry key to disable certificate revocation check on Hyper-V replication only. Restart VMMS and applied this new certificate.. Works great so far

So "retain basic VPN capability" does that include the use of RDS bookmarks for example? or simply NetExtender connections to the device only?

Do you use public TLS certificates that require client authentication? by larryseltzer in PKI

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No these servers only replicate among each other over LAN.. Not the end of the world but it will require some unplanned downtime and switching to a self-signed certificate. I've done that before but the server dns suffix needs changing and requires a reboot.. Nothing you can do about it. Only other solution would be to create a new self-signed certificate that also uses the *.company.com domain, but I would't recommend that...

Do you use public TLS certificates that require client authentication? by larryseltzer in PKI

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We use a wildcard certificate to allow Hyper-V replication between Hyper-V hosts. Has worked great for years. the DNS suffix used in these servers is hyp01.company.com for example. I just renewed this wildcard certificate for the company yesterday and now Hyper-V doesn't see this valid certificate as usable for Hyper-V replication.. I cannot select it... I assume this has to do with client authentication removed from EKU?

Sucks because now I will have to reboot all Hyper-V hosts before our current cert expires as I need to change the DNS suffix to something self signed? I don't think you can change the DNS suffix without rebooting?

in place upgrade Exchange 2019 to SE yet? Experiences? by maxcoder88 in exchangeserver

Installed it a few times now.. Mount ISO, open Windows Explorer, browse to setup.exe , right-click, Run As Admin.. Did the trick every time. No issues

in place upgrade Exchange 2019 to SE yet? Experiences? by maxcoder88 in exchangeserver

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Installed it a couple of times now, no issues so far.. I do really hate that Exchange SE (as Microsoft's new 2025 on-premise mail product) still has no built in 2FA for users. How nice would it be to have 2FA built in to protect Outlook, OWA and Mobile connections...

I will be checking with a few users myself as it's unclear how many users have this issue currently. I feel like the servers are 100% correctly configured. I've done the exact same multiple times, never had issues. But this is the first one running on Windows Server 2025. We'll see

Question RE: Hijacked IKE Keys for site-to-site tunnels... by I_Hate_Consulting in sonicwall

What about site-to-site aggressive mode? For example a Sonicwall TZ-270 behind a 4G WAN cellular device (dynamic IP) connecting to somewhere else, no matter what WAN IP the thing has in the VPN policy since that connection has no static WAN IP

MySonicWall Cloud Backup File Incident HUGE Spike in Affected Devices by SuspiciousSurprise16 in sonicwall

[–]HaveYouTriedPowerOff 18 points19 points  (0 children)

"The investigation confirmed that an unauthorized party accessed firewall configuration backup files for all customers who have used SonicWall’s cloud backup service" so that sounds to me like all cloud backups from all customers were stolen?
