Now, you should check what type of authentication your network use.
Personal: Typical home router require one password to connect. (Keywords: WPA, WPA2)
Enterprise: If you use the enterprise network, e.g., eduroam at the university, you will have user name and password. (Keywords: PEAP, MSCHAPV2)
For security reason, we will create a hash of your password. This hash will be used in the configuration file for the authentication info. This avoids saving your password in plain text.
At the command prompt create a MD4 hash of one of your password by entering the following command, typing your password and pressing enter: (read -s PASS && echo -n $PASS | iconv -t utf16le | openssl md4 > hash.txt)
This will create a file called hash.txt within this you will see something like:
(stdin)= c612f89cd9678868a69e93beecfa10b6
You will need the bit after the equals sign.
Now you can add proper authentication info in the file /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf. Use the following command to launch nano editor to edit this file.
sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
Here're what you should add (depending on the authentication type). Replace YOUR_NETWORK_NAME, YOUR_USER_NAME, YOUR_PASSWORD_HASH below. (Keep the quotation marks if present.) If you have multiple network configurations, you can also add multiple entries.
For a thorough explanation about important keys in the settings, read [NetBeez's instruction].
Now, we have the authentication information ready.
Step 2. Ensure that the network interface use the authentication info
Here, you should edit /etc/network/interface. Find the section about wlan0 and replace it with one of the following configuration (again, depending on your authentication type).
Personal authentication (WPA, WPA2)
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
After migrating to Windows 10 one of the many issues I came across was being unable to map windows 10 to one of my ubuntu samba shares with \\hostname or a \\fqdn ( it was returning system error 64 has occurred and specified network name no longer available)
I found a fix by doing the following:
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Local Security Policy
Under Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options
Set "Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communications (always)" to "Disabled"
Restart the computer
For reference: https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2011-April/162201.html
Unfortuantley whilst fixing one issue it highlighted another and that was not being able to communicate with one of my windows servers obviously requiring digital signing.
The root of the issue is that I am running Samba version 3.6.25, so I will update this to at least 4.3.11 as I know this works as per another Ubuntu server.
This is to help anyone having problems with the initial ASDM download that according to Cisco should happen straight out the box, well as with a lot of Cisco's equipment it isn't always as friendly as the documentation says.
My particular problem occurred with version was ASA Version 8.6(1)2 and ASDM 6.6(1)
I tried with three machines Windows 7 32 bit, Windows 7 64 bit and Windows XP only the windows XP machine worked, atleast I knew at that point there is hope.
I noticed that when connecting via the windows 7 box I would sometimes get the error message:
Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).
(Error code: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap)
At this point I had a good search around the internet and managed to find the following line of code in a forum: ssl encryption rc4-md5 rc4-sha1 aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 3des-sha1
After this was entered at the conf t prompt everything worked as it should.
I can only put this down to later browsers usings more advanced versions of encryption that were n't configured when ASA Version 8.6(1)2 was built.
I've since found another blog with a better explanation but I will leave this in place as I didn't find anything when trawling google originally and the more help out their the better as this gave me a bit of a headache and wasted a good few hours!
I wanted to use Thunderbird portable on multiple machines but synchronize all machines. I use Microsoft's live snyc. this worked well until I started getting duplicate mail boxes! To resolve this I have to do two things 1)install Remove Duplicate Messages 0.1.07 not the alternative version.. this didn't seem to work for me. 2)go into Thunderbird and copy all messages from the duplicate folder into the main folder and then just to make sure you don't get mixed up, copy all combined messages into the duplicate folder the desired result would now be to have two folders with exactly the same messages in. 3)repeat this step for in boxes, sent and trash if so desired 4)right click each of the mailboxes and run "remove duplicates" continue this through all folders 5) the final step close Thunderbird and open the following \Data\profile\Mail\
your mail box name can be found by right clicking your inbox and selecting properties you should see something like mailbox:////Data/profile/Mail//Inbox in my case my mail box name was pop.iomartmail-2.com
6)Now delete all duplicates you should be left with the following Drafts Drafts.msf Inbox Inbox.msf msgFilterRules.dat popstate.dat Sent Sent.msf Trash Trash.msf
7)reload thunderbird and you should have just a single mail box!
Hope this helps and feel free to send a comment and I'll do my best to answer it.
I spent in the region of 5 hours on this one! admittley I was trying every method under the sun be it perl, php, javascript jquery.. anyways I found a very simple method that works
1)go to http://phpformgen.sourceforge.net and create a form, add a page then click on page one and start creating your fields, once you have done this and filled in all the other bits and bobs download the zip folder.
2)Open up the file processor.php and put the following line at the top of script, just under < ? php
