I have been configured & testing the RSA SecureID and i’ve setup the servers, integrated into the LDAP directory etc, I have multiple hosts connected and working, however I have been running into the following issue.

There is no information on the error ANYWHERE! *sigh*

Some people might find this funny, but I finally found an Authentication Monitor in the RSA Security Console, the whole thing is quite easy once you get your head around everything

After starting the Real-Time Authentication Monitor It logged the following error..

Now at this point in time, I have not setup any node secret, the ACE Admin guide explains the following

Best Practices for Automatic Delivery
If you use Automatic Delivery, which is the default setting, the Authentication
Manager automatically creates and sends the node secret to the Agent Host in
response to the first successful authentication on the Agent Host. The transmission
containing the node secret is encrypted with a key derived from the user’s passcode in
combination with other information.
• Windows Agents with a version of 4.4.0 or later store the node secret file in the
system registry.
• Windows legacy Agents (other than 4.4.0) store the node secret file in the
%SYSTEMROOT%\system32 directory.
• All UNIX Agents store the node secret file in the in the ACEDATA directory.
The default name of the node secret file is securid.
In the case of Automatic Delivery, capture of the node secret is possible if you are not
careful to control the circumstances in which the first authentication on each Agent
Host occurs.

So, with that in mind, I did the following..

I went back and tested the authentication, and BAM, it now works. “Authentication method success”

You will notice that it’s now auto generated a new secureid file It’s probably better that you create a new Node Secret file for each Agent, however i’m just in the testing phase right now, apart from a crap interface and confusing setup process, it handles it’s intended job very well. kudos to RSA.

While Google has launched the Nexus One, HTC Hero owners are still awaiting for the long promised ROM updated direct from HTC.

I have a gut feeling that Google has something todo with this, after looking at the added features with the Google Nexus One, the HTC Hero with it’s current version of Android is still far Superior phone with the HTC Sense UI, moving the HTC Hero to Android 2.1 with the HTC Sense UI is going to be a 100% better phone then the Nexus One….. Maybe Google is worried it will stall their sales, who knows.

Anybody else got any suggestions on this one?

A customer of mine was having issues with VOIP connection dropping out all the time, specifically having to reset the ATA device in order to make a phone call using iTalk or iiNet Voip included with the Naked DSL package.

so jumped into the router settings and changed the connection to the following

PPOE
Multplexing LLC
Mode G.DMT

Note, you will have to have the username and password to change from PPOA to PPOE. This seems to have fixed the iiNet voip drop out issues.

GOOGLE has unveiled its new Nexus One smartphone, but you’ll have to wait a while to get one in Australia… Import it I say *smiles*

The touch-screen device was today billed by Google as a “superphone” and the next step in the evolution of its Android software.

The phone, which has no set release date in Australia, is expected to be released gradually around the world.

“We do hope to allow people in other countries to purchase the Nexus One and future phones from Google soon, but I don’t have a time frame to share,” a spokesperson told technology news site Gizmodo,

Google launched its own online store at which the Nexus One would be sold.

Nexus One smartphones will be sold at the Google-hosted web store for $US529 ($578) “unlocked”, without ties to a telecom carrier.

This is in contrast to Apple’s iPhone, which forces consumers to pick a plan with a carrier before being able to use the phone.
