Hm wasn das ???

Versuch mich an einem Windows XP Rechner anzumelden und werde dann direkt wieder abgemeldet. *grübel* Naja dann ist es doch besser wenn die Gäste abhauen. Mag mein Linux wieder haben.

Also erstmal XP CD ins Laufwerk und schauen was da Sache ist. XP auf der zweiten Platte installiert und dann ein Paar ungebetene Gäste von der anderen XP installation entfernt.

Die Regestry von der ersten Installation in Regedit geladen und kontolliert ob die Werte für Userinit und Shell noch stimmen.

Das eigentliche Problem war dann das userinit.exe nicht mehr dort war wo es sein sollte, also den Schlingel dann kurz an seinen Platz gebracht und siehe da die Anmeldung funktioniert wieder.

DownStream Power Back Off (DPBO) and our Cisco gear

Leave a comment

I love my Job 😉

We discovered a new Feature on the DSL Lines. It is called DownStream Power Back Off, this feature was introduced in November 2007 and is currently only supported on German Telekom lines. Where as the ADSL2+ specifcation is from 2004. The Ciscos have implementet the specifcation from 2004 and today no router supports the 2007 specs. So if you are useing Cisco Hardware have a look here to see if your router supporting it.

If you feel this helps a bit or may be not ? Please leave a comment.

ASA, Cisco, Computer, VPN

Cisco IPSec VPN and WWAN Cards are not working so we move to Cisco AnyConnect

1 Comment

Lately we discovered that Windows 7, Cisco IPsec VPNs and buildin UMTS Cards, also called WWAN Cards, do not work togehter. So we are now going the next step to the Cisco AnyConnect on the ASA Platform.

Here the snipplet from the release notes:

Support for Windows 7 on x64 (64-bit). This release, however, does not support WWAN devices (also called wireless data cards) on Windows 7 x86 (32-bit) and x64.

Reference : Release Notes for Cisco VPN Client, Release 5.0.0

For the ASA based AnyConnect you will find the nessesay Tools and Software here:

Cisco ASA Series Firewalls and VPN Gateways
Cisco AnyConnect Client
Cisco AnyConnect Client Profile Editor

A Basic Installation will follow.
