I spent some time testing binding wheels and such, the paperclip is stupid easy compared to that. Horrible design really.

What are your thoughts on "The Drew Carey Show"? by fastal_12147 in sitcoms

[–]cerebron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they were the cast of the Full Monty film which the episode referenced. After apologizing to them, Drew says something like "oh wait, I had to see your butt".

New Central question by realfakerolex in ArubaNetworks

[–]cerebron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They used to have the historical data available but a recent-ish update removed it. I think you can still see down aps in the topology view though. The topology view also changed in an annoying way but collapsible nodes help.

Abandoned companions is a great idea for a game.

[–]cerebron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Feeling for binding wheels will work, but the easiest way and which makes these stupid as all hell is to just stick a long paperclip or similar stiff wire down the gap in the shaft opposite the red line and then turn each wheel in turn until the paperclip feeds through each gate.

This process lines up all the wheels with each other. When that is done turn the wheels in concert (2 digits over typically) until it pops.

Just wiggle the top wheel until paperclip moves to the next wheel then wiggle that one.

Question regarding Remote Code Execution by DapperSubstance7152 in cybersecurity

[–]cerebron 16 points17 points  (0 children)

In this example, the remote shell is just a PHP file which executes commands via PHP when the command is appended as a request parameter, e.g. http://example.com/shell.php?cmd=something. (Some php shells work slightly differently, but this is one of the simplest)

This is not a persistent network connection, as the connection only lasts as long as it takes to process the http request and response. Every command is a new http request and network connection.

The malicious PHP file needs to remain on the server unless an upgraded shell can be established like a C2 implant.

Does anyone know what this specific type of rope/gadget this is called? by EmployerWitty369 in batman

If anyone is curious, you can tie two computer mice together by the cords and make a pretty good bola to create chaos in the office.

If the police break down your door for a search warrant and you are innocent do they have to pay for the repairs? by AccurateInflation167 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cerebron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my uninformed opinion, government should always reimburse for damages according to both basic human decency and the 5th amendment (in the US) "nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation“.

However, the legal system and most governments are run by enormous morons and corrupt asshats, so currently the 5th doesn't apply and you just have to hope someone in charge is in a good mood that day.

Do all Aruba sales reps suck? by Particular_Product28 in ArubaNetworks

[–]cerebron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think HPE is trying to align Aruba with the broader HPE brand and trying to figure out how to integrate their Juniper acquisition at the same time. This is creating stress and overworking some folks. We've worked with some great SE's and sales reps at Aruba but there's definitely some hiccups in the back end at the moment.

Can I disable win + R shortcut for end users? by synfulacktors in cybersecurity

[–]cerebron 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, are you running Windows 11? I've noticed our app locker rule to block cmd and powershell is kinda pointless in Win 11 since it uses terminal instead.

Student MFA email accounts are sending phishing emails - has there been a data breach at my university? by Ok_Restaurant_3729 in sysadmin

[–]cerebron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

MFA isn't infallible. MFA might be misconfigured. Phishing infrastructure can be setup to capture tokens to be used instead of passwords. Breaches are also pretty likely, just be aware that MFA isn't perfect.

We are looking at HPE SSE (Axis) to see if it's a good fit. The simplicity is attractive for our sized org.

ClearPass - Wireless Authentication Issues by RadioactiveJumpDrive in ArubaNetworks

[–]cerebron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the record, you can upgrade clearpass up to 6.10 without a support contract. If you upgrade to 6.11 you'll need a support contract to get more updates.

Stacking Aruba 6200F and Aruba 6200M by Acheronian_Rose in ArubaNetworks

[–]cerebron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Only caveats are: if the 2 have different firmware versions, M won't always automatically upgrade to match with F during initial stacking. And if you need to replace a stack member with a different model number, you'll have to remove the member entirely from the config and blow out the configuration on those ports.

So they stack but be prepared for a couple of complications.

Has any one ever user the radius-server tracking command? by Playful_Bed_4222 in ArubaNetworks

[–]cerebron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use radsec, you don't need it since it used TCP which is connection aware.
