Comment on Easy Windows Profile Migration by Brett

Brett — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 19:05:29 +0000

This was much easier than the way I usually move profiles. I modified your instructions so that I disabled, deleted and re-enabled the CSC (deleted it manually by deleting everything in C:\Windows\CSC\). I stuck these in so with your directions so I rebooted around each step.

I also had to manually move My Documents (this site does folder redirection) as reapplying group policies on redirection can be a pain. Thanks for sharing!

Comment on Windows / IIS SSL – Restrict Weak Ciphers by Jeff

Jeff — Wed, 11 May 2011 22:58:09 +0000

I just published a free tool that can disable weak protocols and ciphers. Essentially it uses the same registry keys as those articles listed but adds a simple GUI to configure Windows Server 2003/2008.

It is called IIS Crypto and found here: https://www.nartac.com/Products/IISCrypto/Default.aspx

Comment on Google Chrome Pilot Program by Alex

Hi Curtis,
as you probably know, you can get to the developer screen with ctrl-alt-t. I’m not a programmer but I wonder if you might be able to help me figure something out. I’d love to use my CR-48 to play a mud but it doesn’t have java and it doesn’t have a telnet app. Is it possible to connect to a mud from the developer screen? I tried “ssh lord.nuklear.org” but it prompts for user and password but I’m pretty sure it’s for direct access to the mud, not to play it. Any help super-appreciated.

Thanks,

Alex

I tried to do some reserch on this as I have not personally had to do it myself. Microsoft's documenation is scary thin for 2008 in regards to cipher security. Everything that I have read points to the same KB article. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;245030 I did find this tidbit though. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverDS/thread/1cf01f33-9cbe-4b76-b01c-83923c4cda04 Hopefully this helps.

Comment on Windows / IIS SSL – Restrict Weak Ciphers by Sebastian

Sebastian — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 22:21:30 +0000

Any Idea on how to do it in Windows 2008 as thesubkeys for cipher does not exist.
Do I need to create the subkeys manually?? If I need to do that, I need to create the complete set as they exists in Windows 2003?
Thanks
