We're currently investigating the possibility for mac and linux users to
securely access AD so they can use the address book.
Unfortunately they need to specify a single DC in their application. Since
we do want to share the load to all DC's but also need availability, if for

I'm planning to setup pki and install a certificate on the DCs.
Once the certificate has been installed on the DCs, how do I force the
machines (client computers, member servers, DCs) to use SSL LDAP?

We are currently running a Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition file
server and having over 10 - 20 shares on the server. One particular folder
has been shared and provided "full control" on the sharing TAB, and added the
specified security group to the "security" TAB (with ...

Hello, after going through the specifications of both the protocols, I feel  
that for SSL it the the server which has the final say on what gets picked as
the cipher of the session while for ssh it is the first intersecting cipher

Hello. My hotmail account has been hacked for sometime. I've tried everything

We have a number of issues with users changing the permissions on their
files, although they do not have full control with the combined NTFS and
Share permissions due to the default OS permissions with the creator Owner

then one issuing Enterprise CA (on a DC).

I have setup an IAS server for wireless authentication with these policies:
1) NAS-Port-Type matches "Wireless - Other OR Wireless - IEEE 802.11"
2) Windows-Group matches "domain\Domain Users;domain\Domain Computers"
using PEAP-MS-CHAP-V2

I am currently planning a PKI implementation for a client who wishes to use
certificates primarily for Exchange, OCS and SharePoint. It is possible it
will be used for other purposes in the future.
My plan is to install a standalone root CA which I will turn off, and

Are there pieces of malware that get onto your computer, do something
wrong to it, and then deletes ITSELF with no trace?
Just wondering.

I wonder if there's a (free) site that lets you enter any URL and it
will check for malware.  I doubt it but I'd love to know.
Thanks

Ninety percent of corporate PCs are a security risk because they are not
fully patched, or do not have basic security such as anti-virus software
and firewalls properly installed.

I'm trying to find a simple way to give multiple users access to my EFS
shares on my file server.  Manually importing certificates to each of the
thousands of subfiles, is not an option.  Is there any way to grant folder
level EFS permissions?  Or is it possible to grant security ...

I know about the event logs, but is it possible to capture all changes made
to a server, things like app installs/removals, registry changes, local group
