RE: [ActiveDir] Do I really need to add UPNs?

2004-03-20 Thread GRILLENMEIER,GUIDO (HP-Germany,ex1)



actually I had to think some more about what I had posted - 
I believe the "officially" added UPNs are also stored in the respective TDO 
object of the trusting domain, which replicates to all the GCs of the own 
domain. This is how a DC in the trusting forest will know where 
to pass on the request if you logon to a workstation in the trusting 
forest with a UPN defined in the trusted forest. In addition 
- as mentioned before - you'll only be able to perform restrictions on these UPN 
suffixeswhen added to the upnSuffixes attribute.

So I guess when you're using forest trusts and you do want 
to allow the "other" (not the implicit) UPNs for logon in the trusting forest, 
you'll have to add them to the attribute.

But I guess I still earned the beer ;-) Won't I be on 
my way until another 6 hours.

Cheers,
Guido

Adding the UPN suffixes to the list of alternate UPNs will 
enable configuration of TLN restrictions (Top-Level Name restrictions) for 
forest trusts (i.e. transitive trust between two 2003 forests). The UI lists the 
available UPN suffixes of the trusted forest incl. the stored alternate UPNs 
and allows you to configure which ones you allow to be used "accross the 
trust" for authentication. This is a must, if your UPN isn't a subordinate 
of the top level name of your root (e.g. TLN of root = "mycompany.net", but your 
alternative UPN suffix is "othercompany.net"). 

Alternative UPNs which are subordinates (e.g. 
"otherOrg.mycompany.net") can be added manually within the wizard by adding 
exceptions for your existing root-UPN suffix.

You will like perl... I am a c guy myself. The first time I 
picked up KR I sat there going "of course" "of course" "of course" "of 
course" through the whole book. I had a precursor to that though that made it 
work so well for me... DEC Macro Assembler on a DEC PDP11 (34 and 84). Little 
things like the ++ came right straight from commands built into the Macro 
Assembler and DEC instructions. Actually if I could find my old Macro Asm stuff 
you would find macros/functions that I had written that made my ASM code very 
c-like before I actually saw c. 

Think of perl as c with really good string manipulation. It 
is actually easier than c and you don't tend to get bitten as easily nor as 
hard. And if you want, it isn't too bad to extend perl with c compiled code so 
if you have that 'thing" you just have to do in c, you can do it, and call it 
from perl. 

Probably the biggest gripe I have against perl that I liked 
in c was you ALWAYS have to enclose statement blocks in perl, where in c it was 
only good form. ;o)

I.E. 

In perl

if (some condition) {some action};

in c

if (some condition) some action;


If you reverse it the biggest gripe I have against c is 
that perl hasAWESOME regular _expression_ functionality. At first REGEX's 
scare people. Once you get into them you have a hard time doing without. They 
have some regex libraries for c but I haven't seen one I really liked yet, not 
as transparent as perl's regex capability. I missed the HASH (Associative Array) 
as well until I started getting decent with the STL mapstring,string. 



If you use the STL a lot then you will also like perl. 


Give it a try, you will be shocked I think. 


Oh btw, if you really start liking perl, check out the 
whole activestate site because they have res kits and gui dev environments and 
tools for compiling perl code to executable, etc. 

They also have fun stuff forobfuscating your scripts 
so it is tough for people to read them. I have seen packages that turn your 
script into piglatin, morse code, semi-random gibberesh, and the scripts still 
run fine. 

Anyone know if I can get on a plane with a backpack and a 
laptop backpack? If so I don't need to check baggage. It is the MVP backpack 
(smallish) and a Dell laptop backpack.

Great 
answer ... indeed they are. Most of the info. is maintained as a blob 
(msDS-trustForestTrustInfo off the top of my head) on the representative TDO 
which, as you said, replicates to forest local GCs in order to allow CrackNames 
to resolve foreign-forest namespaces ... this particular attribute has been the 
cause of many a heated debate between myself and some Microsoft guys but that's 
another story entirely.

Great 
answer ... indeed they are. Most of the info. is maintained as a blob 
(msDS-trustForestTrustInfo off the top of my head) on the representative TDO 
which, as you said, replicates to forest local GCs in order to allow CrackNames 
to resolve foreign-forest namespaces ... this particular attribute has been the 
cause of many a heated debate between myself and some Microsoft guys but that's 
another story entirely.

  actually I had to think some more about what I had posted 
  - I believe the "officially" added UPNs are also stored in the respective TDO 
  object of the trusting domain, which replicates to all the GCs of the own 
  domain. This is how a DC in the trusting forest will know where 
  to pass on the request if you logon to a workstation in the trusting 
  forest with a UPN defined in the trusted forest. In 
  addition - as mentioned before - you'll only be able to perform restrictions 
  on these UPN suffixeswhen added to the upnSuffixes 
  attribute.
  
  So I guess when you're using forest trusts and you do 
  want to allow the "other" (not the implicit) UPNs for logon in the trusting 
  forest, you'll have to add them to the attribute.

  Adding the UPN suffixes to the list of alternate UPNs 
  will enable configuration of TLN restrictions (Top-Level Name restrictions) 
  for forest trusts (i.e. transitive trust between two 2003 forests). The UI 
  lists the available UPN suffixes of the trusted forest incl. the stored 
  alternate UPNs and allows you to configure which ones you allow to be 
  used "accross the trust" for authentication. This is a must, if your UPN 
  isn't a subordinate of the top level name of your root (e.g. TLN of root = 
  "mycompany.net", but your alternative UPN suffix is "othercompany.net"). 
  
  
  Alternative UPNs which are subordinates (e.g.

  [ActiveDir] OT HIPAA Security Risk Analysis
  Same Risk Analysis that would be used for Sorb-Ox, GLB - 
  really, it doesn't matter. It's a methodology of determining who owns 
  the data (you're either a data custodian (you properly have data from someone 
  else) you are the data owner (well, you own the data) or a thief (you don't 
  own the data)) and seeing that the data owner understands the classification 
  of the data (Private, sensitive, confidential, etc.) and that it is classified 
  properly.
  
  Once it's classified, then you must have procedures and 
  processes to go with the classifications that match with HIPAA - this will 
  determine how the Data Custodian must deal with the data. The Data 
  Custodia cannot classify your data - it's not his.
  
  Once the classification of the data is done, the Risk 
  Analysis pretty much falls into place with the same quantitative and 
  qualitative methods as any other type of RA. Be sure to consider what 
  methods of transmission, what the likelihood of the data being compromised 
  while it's in your possession, out of your possession, and how can you 
  transfer the risk. Remember, there are lots of ways to transfer the 
  risk, number one being Insurance, number two out-sourcing.
  
  Hope that gives you a start.

RE: [ActiveDir] password gpo for a special group

2004-03-20 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Joe - thanks for the note of confidence.  :-)

It's true - we put the actual complexity code on a separate server, which
does provide lots of other functions: synchronization, self-service reset,
user enrollment, etc. etc.

We can enforce all sorts of password policy rules, and it is possible to
enforce different rules for different user populations (though that isn't
the default behaviour).

Most of that functionality is probably beyond the scope of this list, so
perhaps we should move this discussion off-line?

 There are several companies that put out password filters. I can't say that
 PSYNCH is the best as I never did a comprehensive study on who is doing what
 in that area however we do use PSYNCH for a fairly large corporation and it
 works well. Nota Bene we most use the product for syncing passwords across
 multiple platforms, we do not use any special complexity filtering. However
 I do have confidence in their ability to do so.

 PSYNCH does use an extra server to do the work though, it isn't completely
 enclosed functionality in a single DLL that goes on your Domain Controllers
 unless they have made changes that I am unaware of (quite possible).

  Robert,
 
  This can be done with the password filter DLL installed on DCs.  It
  requires either programming (be very very careful!  mistakes in this
  DLL will crash your DC's operating system), or a product that looks
  after password management in general, and password policy enforcement
  in particular (same technology, somebody else has already done the
  QA).
 
  If you are interested in pursuing the product route, please visit

  Good luck!
